What does this do?

This flashable ZIP file attempts to speed up Android OS by implementing tweaks and removing programs that the average Android user may not utilize. It adds build.prop tweaks and removes a lot of applications installed in system/app and system/priv-app. This means that this ZIP file will free up space in your hard drive and increase performance since not as many apps will be running in the background.

This zip file will manipulate/edit...

system/etc/init.d

build.prop

Installed Android applications

Hosts file

Before doing anything, be sure to backup with recovery since things might go wrong.

How to install/update:

1. Download ZIP

2. Boot into recovery mode and make a BACKUP first!

3. Flash my ZIP file

4. After the process, delete/wipe dalvik-cache and cache partitions

5. Done! Now boot into the system and wait for the boot process to take you to lock screen

6. Open Settings > Apps > : (3 dots on the top right corner) > Reset app preferences (If you do not have this step, you can skip)

7. Done! After flashing, I recommend calibrating battery (you do not need to do this every update!)

For updates, just download the updated ZIP and flash it! Easy peasy.

Common Issues:

Boot Loops

Black Screen on Startup

Phone won't boot

Settings do not respond when opened

Certain apps lost functionality

Spam messages saying: "Unfortunately android.app has stopped working"

Any issue that comes up, restore it from backup. Usually, uninstalled system apps are what cause these issues. To prevent these issues, you will need to remove some lines in the updater-script in my ZIP and reflash it.

Compatibility:

This ZIP file should be compatible with all ROMs (even stock), mods, devices and Android versions, but it was specifically tested and built around an S7 Edge using stock.
