Magisk modules:

GApps Add-on: Flash this Magisk module in order to systemlessly install Android System Intelligence and Google app, thus enabling Live Captions and other functions. This should also work on LineageOS 18.1 if for whatever reason your GApps package doesn't already contain these apps.

Camera patches: This Magisk module enables the long exposure for Camera PX, 2K video recording for both front and back cameras (with OpenCamera or similar), it enables near 4K video resolution for the front camera (with OpenCamera or similar) and it gives Camera PX the proper SELinux permissions in order to process HDR+ images faster. Only use this module on crDroid 7.x.

VoLTE: This Magisk module makes the system always show the VoLTE, ViLTE and VoWiFi toggles regardless of your carrier, useful for people whose service provider supports this options but can't enable them for some reason. Your carrier needs to support VoLTE for marlin/sailfish in the first place, this won't make VoLTE work magically on any carrier. This module can be used on any ROM.
