[Samsung Galaxy J7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Astrako:
DISCLAIMER

I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you

I've put a huge amount of time and effort in this SOLO project (no other dev has been involved), so respect me and respect my work. You are NOT allowed to use this rom, its vendor or any of the other files included as base for your projects.

FEATURES

OneUI 2.5 under Android 10, ported from the SM-N980F

J730X supported

Arm64 with Treble support

Fully deodexed

SIMPLE-KERNEL included, compiled from A600FNXXU5CTB9 sources. Built permissive.

Deknoxed, debloated, and removed all samsung useless security stuff in rom and kernel level

N20 muti CSC with additional features (call recording, etc)

And many more!

KNOWN BUGS

All S-PEN features have been removed, don't ask for them!

In some phone variants, the rom could be a bit laggy while opening apps. Try cleaning dalvik&cache

Face recognition doesn't work

Updating camera app through Samsung app store will break it

Light in capacitive buttons for those devices with hardware buttons

Some 3rd camera apps like footej or whatsapp video calls don't work (this bug is only present in the A3, J7 2016 and J7 Prime). Use whatsapp business as workaround

FM Radio could be bugged too for phones different than the A3

Other inherent bugs from OneUI and/or 7870 limitation

You tell me
