[Samsung Galaxy A52 4G] ShaDisNX255:
RayOS v2.0 for Samsung Galaxy A52
​

Pretty straight forward, I took OneUI 3.1 firmware, debloated it and added a few features. But I mean very FEW features. Samsung didn't really disable a lot of things on the A52, I'm actually impressed.

I didn't really put a lot of effort into this, I don't think I'll keep it up to date because I am a very lazy person :) but who knows, stuff happens.

I will include the stock kernel for the newest security patches in the thread, because Samsung obviously tinkers with it and may include some improvements brought by Samsung themselves. Doubt you'll see custom kernels based on it until Samsung releases the source code (which sometimes takes up to 2 weeks).

Anyway, enjoy.

I decided to show my work so to speak on GitHub. You can see the list of all the apps I removed and all the lines that were added to camera and floating features. Feel free to take a look and make pull requests if you want me to add something on potential future releases.
