October 17. Rom fixed: boots and works fine on Xperia Z3, which is like Z2 a Shinano device.
This is the Official Jaguar rom for Honami, which is based on AOSP with some flavors from Slim and Dirtyunicorn. The main difference from other roms is the emphasis on security and multiple features. With that in mind , let's see what Jaguar has to offer:
1. Hardened Kernel, modified M5; hardened rom built with HYPERTOOL 5.4
2. All ciphers enabled in kernel instead of just a few
3. Hardened/Fortified Bionic and Libs
4. Fstack protection strong to resist buffer overflows
5. Many System apps and processes are made read-only, to reduce elevation of privilege
6. Selinux replaced with Tomoyo Security, Yam security
7. Disc encryption, keymaster to 256 bit AES instead of 128
8. Latest TWRP with working brightness and ability to decrypt Data
9. Random number generation mixed hardware/software, as recommended by Linus Torwalds
10. Options to randomize host on every boot
11. Option to have a separate password for lock screen and boot
12. Qualcomm's Time Services disabled due to leaking on early boot (set time to automatic to get it from your carrier). Forget it. Jaguar now has Sony TimeKeep ported from MM/Nougat that sets the correct time locally without the internet or GSM signal. So, even if you are in Airplane mode, the time will be right on each reboot. All you need to do is to set it right once on a live device
13. WIFI Background Scanning disabled to prevent leaking
14. Internet disabled for both WIFI and Data until Afwall is set and activiated (Afwall included in download, install as regular app)
15. The phone is VOLTE ready and you have all network options available in Cell menu (not just LTE/WCDMA/GSM)
16. GRsecurity features, such as Sidechannel implemented
17. Some Pax Security Features
18. Option to deny USB connection: denied always; denied when locked; and allowed always
19. Hardened webview with Google and other "interesting" IPs removed
20. Prevention of bruteforcing screen pin: the phone will reboot upon 3 unsuccessful attempts
21. Perfect_Event_Paranoid ported from Grsecurity: now third party apps can't use other apps including system to elevate privileges
22. Camera hardware button works to focus, take pictures and start video recording
23. Option to disable writing to Tombstones (a lot of private info is dumped there if there is a crash)
24. Option to disable continuing writing of logcat
25. Option to disable device cameras: back; front, both or none
26. Always latest Google Security Patches
27. Always latest Code Aurora Security Patches
28. Changes ported directly from Google Android Gerrit, so most of those in MM and even N are in this rom
29. About 80% of kernel changes are ported into Jaguar kernel from 3.10 and 3.18 (not Sony AOSP 3.10 that has Down Syndrome, but Linux/Google/Code Aurora one)
30. Rom is odexed to significantly increase boot speed (under 30 seconds) and application start
31. DNS_Crypt that gives you a native option to have numerous Dns providers all encrypted (in Settings/Security
32. Seccomp/secure computing implemented and enabled in kernel
31. Many more security features ported from Linux and Copperhead OS
Other features include: Layers Theme Engine; Native Call Recording with interface integrated in Dialer with no restrictions; Privacy Guard; Native Wakelock Blocker; Native Black List; Global Menu; Slim Recents; Traffic Indicators; Advanced Reboot; Slim Pie; CPU Info on Screen; Ram Bar in Recents; Open Source Superuser included and integrated in Settings; True Offline Charging with Screen Off; Kernel Adiutor included (unzip and install as a normal app) and integrated in Settings; FM Radio and Recording plus more
Things users need to know to have smooth experience:. These are not bugs, but rather an explanation of some features
1. If you want to do data encryption, keep in mind that unlike Android, Jaguar uses 256 bit encryption. If you were encrypted on other roms, you won't be able to decrypt. So, wipe encryption and then re-encrypt on Jaguar. Also, keep in mind that if you ever did factory reset on official TWRP 3+ for honami, your data partition is screwed and have to be resized to enable encryption. This has nothing to do with the rom, but rather with the official TWRP itself. Fastboot my unofficial TWRP 3.0.2, which, by the way has working brightness, as well as ability to decrypt and mount data
2. Jaguar contains a script running on early boot, which cuts the internet access to both WIFI and Data until Afwall is running. This is done to prevent leaking, as well as having all your internet traffic routed through some interesting number of servers, including this IP: 26.147.196.22. So, install Afwall and activate it, otherwise, no Internet for you
3. If your system language is different from English and you want to make changes in Phone/Cell Network settings, switch to English first, make the changes and then return to your language. The changes you made will hold. If you try to make the changes in your language, you will have com.android.phone crash. Localization takes time and is virtually impossible to implement in Jaguar, which is a one-person-rom
4. Sony TimeKeep, which is ported from MM/N, now sets the correct time on reboot without the Internet or GSM signal. All you need to do is set it once and TimeKeep will save/recalculate/restore the same on each reboot
5. GAPPS: if you use them, you need to flash them right after the rom (or each update) and before reboot. Flashing after reboot will result in multiple f/c
6. Due to Volte implementation, you will need to flash (one time only) stock LP or MM baseband, but only if you have no GSM signal
Download: All updates and change logs are in Post #3
Instructions:
1. Be on LP, Have TWRP (fastboot my unofficial version), unlocked bootloader and root
2. In TWRP, wipe data/factory reset, then wipe System/Data/Cache/Dalvik
3. Flash the rom
4. If you use xposed, flash the latest installer
5. Reboot, install Afwall and Kernel Adiutor as normal apps; activate Afwall to have Internet
6. Enjoy the rom, say thank you, donate or do both
Warning: If your device and/or anyone in the immediate vicinity dies, don't blame me: it is all China and Russia's fault.

Development update as of February 16 and some Screenshots
February 16: I broke my Z1 screen again and am not in the mood for after market screens. And I am sick and tired of Sony crappy treatment of development community.
I am now looking at Lenovo Zuk Z2 or Z2 pro. Both excellent phones with the latest CPU and made out of metal and glass by Motorola which they bought from Google a couple of years ago. Zuk is friendly to developers and their blobs don't dumb down camera and they don't seek to "unify" bugs for all their devices. I no longer wish to support a fat bastard corporation that can't make a good phone, but thinks that just by putting their logo on the phone would make it worth $700.
RE Jaguar. I will continue to maintain Jaguar mainly with security patches... for a while, but my main work will be concentrated on Zuk. There is a lot of work to be done cleaning Android N and implementing security and other features from Jaguar...
Screenshots are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62560391&postcount=2
Download/Change Log Section
February 10: New release including
1. February security patches
2. Sony TimeKeep to set the correct time on boot
3. Dns_Crypt (numerous choices of encrypted Dns providers) in Settings/Security
4. Open Source Superuser integrated in Settings
5. Seccomp/secure computing implemented and enabled in kernel
6. Twrp 3.0.X that supports data decryption, as well as TimeKeep
To install TWRP use fastboot: fastboot flash recovery recoveryZ2.img or any app that allows you to flash recoveries
To use Dns_Crypt, you must allow the Internet for 'apps run as root' in Afwall

i liked minimum pre-apps on this ROM
but as you know copy/past texts not work at all! (copy function works very well but past doesn't work)

ROM Info:
● J7 Prime ROM based on stock G610FDDU1CRI4 firmware
● Deknoxed
● Debloated (samsung INS apps still there, as well as google assistant and Youtube)
● INS firmware for VoLTE
● S9 Messages app
● Samsung Music app
● Bixby home preloaded
● Android 8.1.0, SEP 9.5
-No extra features added, and won't be added. Note9 or S9 ports will probably come soon, cry for useless features there.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: To ensure that you get working baseband, flash latest Magisk 17.3. Any version lower than that and you won't have SIM service
Also, don't update your bootloader to Oreo one as it may have RMM lock and give you more headaches (not confirmed).
Installation process is as usual, wipe everything and flash the ROM.
There's also a separate kernel you must flash after the ROM (I didn't want to reupload ROM with new kernel) To flash the kernel go to Install> Install Image> locate the boot.img and flash it
The kernel is stock from 8.1.0 with removed dm-verity, knox and vaultkeeper bullcrap. No source yet.
For screenshots, download links and changelog, refer to post #2.
If you like this ROM, consider hitting that Thanks button, or if you are really generous, donate via PayPal. Thanks.

SCREENSHOTS
WHY DID I MAKE THIS ROM?
So here comes the question, why in the world would you make a ROM thats pretty much like stock? Because on stock ROM lagsung has added 1000 new protections that are hard to bypass (until Kernel source gets released that is) Even though this ROM doesn't allow to flash Magisk without losing baseband (stock also has that problem so dont worry) it allows you to have TWRP without encrypting your storage. So if you want to debloat this rom even more, go to TWRP, mount system, go to File manager and delete apks manually. The ROM has 3 extra apps as a bonus, and it's ligter than stock too. So there's my reasons why did I make this ROM. its nothing special yet still ok.
FAQ
Q: Why can't I turn on OEM unlock?
A: I guess another protection by samsung. Don't worry, if your OEM unlock was already on, it will still be on.
Q: Why doesn't my touchscreen/display work?
A: So this is yet another protection from Lagsung it's a counterfeit/non OEM display protection, your touch or display won't work with official 8.1 (IF your display has been replaced, and it's not OEM one). This has been spotted in other devices too like J7/J5 2017
Q: Can i flash this on this or that model sar?
A: I don't know. Try it for yourself, it should work on all models.

Welcome to Formula Performante...
Hey there fellow Tab S2 user! So... your wondering what this ROM is huh? This ROM is the fruit of my labour, after many many hours of work, research etc. This ROM is genuinely the lightest stock based ROM, in all of the Tab S2 ROM era. The ROM weighs just 675 MB, its RAM usage only 1.0-1.1 GB and its fluidity and speed is unmatched, since any and all modifications have been directed towards only enhancing performance and battery life. So, what does this ROM pack? Here's a list:
Features:
1. Extraordinarily Light Operating System with a very deep debloat
2. Google Apps Removed while still maintaining SafetyNet
3. Latest @engine95 Kernel with Enforcing and far more superior RAM Management
4. Updated SoundAlive with slightly modified Volume Increases
5. Every App has been replaced by the lightest equivalent (For e.g, for the Music App, I checked RAM management of Google Play Music and Eleven Music (Cyangogenmod) and found that Eleven Music used 50 MB of RAM lesser than GPM, so I used that. This should give you an idea of how much research and time it took to find the lightest variant of most stock apps)
6. S8 Camera UI with FHD 60FPS,Tracking AF and Standard Improved Autofocus. Other than these improvements, the camera app was debloated as well, and any useless modes were terminated and rooted out.
7. Completely De-knoxed
8. Magisk Pre-Installed
9. Most Extra RAM and Battery Consuming features have been terminated
10. Device Maintenance switched out for Files GO and SystemUI Tuner (To view battery stats, pull down quick settings (notification panel), click on the top right corner (three dots),button order and place the battery icon and storage icon into the quick settings panel.
11. Mtweaks 13.0 Installed for better kernel control, including GPU control.
12. AOSP Sounds instead of Sammy Sounds.
13. Few build prop tweaks for minor performance gains.
Bugs:
Music will crash on first boot
Do not update Magisk, its 17.1 and has to stay that way to work! New versions of Magisk aren't compatible with out current kernel and will just kill boot!
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS
1. Wipe DATA,SYSTEM,DALVIK CACHE and CACHE
2. Flash The ROM
3. Realize you enjoy the ROM and hit Thanks :good:
-- NOTE: This ROM is heavily debloated. It's weight alone should classify how much has been removed. Please check comments before installing to see if theres any problems.

Thanks. Just installed it.
First impressions:
Starting with "Music has stopped". Oops.
Upgrading Magisk Manager results in error, because Magisk version lower than v18.0 not supported. You should mention this. So no updated version of Magisk possible here (from 17.1 to 18.1)? Oops
its fast, really fast. Wow
more to follow, will just reinstall everything to get Magisk to work.

Oh yeah, thanks for reminder. OP updated
You should explain why it isn't possible to update to the newest version of Magisk. It isn't so nice installing a new ROM with an old version of root and no chance to fix this.
Update:
Removed the ROM. Titanium Backup crashes immediately. So unusable for me.

He explained why...upgraded versions of magisk are not compatible with the custom kernel he used inside the rom. Possibly if the kernel gets some updates we'll get magisk updated support too.
Btw idk why Titanium crashes...will test tonight if happens with me too. Dumb tought: maybe it uses some gapp related services to work and then it crashes because thei're missing? That sound stupid i know...
For the Dev:
It's possible to install gapps (bare minimum as play store and play services) or MicroGapps in this rom? Just in case i wont rely on Fdroid or other thirdy part stores. Thank you

Ok so Titanium backup, is related with the kernel being enforcing. Titanium require permissive which I didn't release due to the many security holes it usually poses. Oh and about Gapps, don't flash.
Updated Magisk 17.3 and up, (18.0, 18.1) compatible kernel is here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79164496&postcount=42

Can't enable any Accessibility Services telling that the text to speech language is not supported and when i tries to force itself to change it to english it restarts.

core issue imo is that the calling app dialer does not show up during a call-no call ui (call received but no way to accept it) if there was a way to go back to stock dialer and messages this ROM would have been perfect. too bad all in the past now.
For me, after some finetuning, this is the best, fastest and most stable and compatible custom ROM ever for the SM-T715. Thank you Skulldron!
My finetuning after flashing the ROM (TWRP is clearly a requirement):
1) flash new Kernel v1.4
2) flash Magisk v.21.4 (the last one before Magisk (with v.22.0) became an "App", bundeled with the Magisk Manager )
3) install MagiskManager-v8.0.7.apk (The last separate Version of the Magisk Manager before it became a bundle with Magisk)
4) install newest Open Gapps for Arm 7.0 ("Micro" bundle in my case, because I need Exchange support that seems only to come with GMail) choose the one for your needs if you need: open gapps 7.0 arm
5) install Magisk Module "Google Dialer Framework" via Magisk Manager
6) install Google Phone (The offical Google dialer app shows a "device not supported" message but works fine with the Performante Rom. If you don´t like the error message, try another dialer app)
7) install Google contacts (The offical Google contacts app that works fine with the Performante Rom)
That´s the good and stable working basis installation for me. I do not need any google account and use sources like F-Droid, uptodown or the A**zon appstore for some charged applications i need (like Business Calendar, Mobile Doc Scanner...)
Based on you description I reinstalled this one because all other custom roms result in reboots, looping etc.
- Installed stock Gapps (Micro wasn't even available for 7.0)
- the newest kernel 1.6.1
- can use phone and contacts without warnings and problems
- upgraded to lastest magisk version, get warning about system app etc (seems a known problem right now, so I'll wait). But root works
- Netflix, Prime working, Disney with error 39
- fast!
-------------------------
Very good until now. Have to wait a few days and see if the reboots/boot loops etc are gone.
-------------------------
I'll use it only inhouse (since yesterday we have a Galaxy Tab S7+ as primary tablet, but: I can't use it because my daughert occupies it constantly!). Maybe this old and slim rom will give the S2 a new life.
@photona: Thanks for your post. Without it I never would have tried this one again. Sadly Skulldron was last online some months ago...
@engine95: Thanks for updating the kernel!

Thank you for the tips, after installing opengapps, system webview will be missing, so I have to push a webview (v70.0.3538.80) into /system/app and install it again in the system. Didn't you encounter this issue?

I don't use webview, so: no.
cant believe i haven't tried this before. made this ancient tablet very useable. I wish they still made tablets this size, this thin and light with such good screens. its perfect if you want to read the news or surf social media, want something bigger than your phone but not a monster tablet like most these days
Been using for a couple of days now and it is the best rom by far for everyhting, tried lineage android 10 and 11, both of them make the tab run very hot in games and after a few mins the graphics glitch so bad it is unplayable.
This rom however, the games run great and the tab only gets warm. Also battery usage is superior to all other roms ive tried.
Thank you for your hard work.
Glad to see the link still works, shame this was the last rom ive tried, the last happens to be the best
PixelNougat V1.0 - By Team Pixel
Hey Everyone! Pixel Nougat is a custom firmware that ports most of the features from a Pixel Device to a Samsung Firmware. This build has been based on the Pixel XL.

6. Google Chrome
7. Google Clock
8. Google Contacts (with framework port)

13. Google Messages

Finallly!!! A ROM that I can rely on as a daily driver. I just installed it a few mins ago and its lightning quick and has Pixel features! Thanks dev for the great work!
waiting for more comments...and mark..I may try in a few days
Installed it (as I kept having camera and hotspot problems on LineageOS) a few hours ago. It's great and everything works so far as I can tell. I don't like Samsung's UI (much preferred AOSP derivatives), but having access to original tweaks (color calibration, night mode etc.) is indeed very convenient. And it's really fast, at least as fast as LineageOS.
Congrats!
installed it last night
but I have the problem with sync the contacts from google, and sync chrome data also not work, shall I flash google app pack? which one recommended?

Same here with Contacts. The right permissions are granted, but the account is not recognized. However, if I try to enter it manually, I am told it's already on the device..
Chrome syncs, however.
One more point. Chrome syncs - but Google does not, in the sense that app passwords recorded by Google (and working on other devices) are not available, for instance.
Otherwise, great rom.
ok everything works...
No issue with contacts.. but I did dirty flash over the experience rom..
Issue with calendar, unable to open, requesting to activate the calendar storage.. on inspection the Calendar provider is in the system/priv-app folder, but maybe the incorrect version as it doesn't appear to be 'installed'
Installed version 7.0 for nougat and replaced over the original in twrp.. now working fine...
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsu...se/calendar-storage-7-0-android-apk-download/
Regarding editing photos... you should be able to choose editing tools in googles 'Photo' app from the camera..
---------- Post added at 09:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:24 AM ----------
Oh a please do not have Magisk Manager app in the system storage... should never really be in the system storage..
I use the Hide Magisk Manager option, to stop it being detected by certain apps that looks for it, it is then suppose to uninstall the original version.. However it cant if it is in the system storage...
Apologies stock camera missing gallery
Any separate install available to re add this ?
Any update to pixel android 11
Hey guys! This ROM is still discontinued, but I found an old updated build I did. I have no clue whether it boots or what changes were made, so you have been warned. Please make backups. Here's the link if you're interested in flashing it, its build number is higher than the one posted on main thread so its definitely newer.

Lightheart 1.0 - The key to speed.
Hi everyone. My name is Skulldron and for those of you who do recognise me, know me as the creator of Project Pixel, another one of the greatest ways to emulate the Pixel Experience, whilst keeping all the benefits of using OneUI and its stock optimized drivers as its base. Today I'm going to introduce something, different. Over the years of working on Touchwiz based ROMs, I've learnt the description of every little apk, every little permission, what it accepts and what it rejects, its pros and its cons. As a result of this experience, I have one of the best debloat lists out there, with each item on the debloat list, being tested, through extensive testing, and it goes over every file and every partition known in the OneUI OS. This exact same debloat script was used in Project Pixel, which has received positive review after positive review for how efficient and how lightweight OneUI became after the debloat. Today however, I present to you Lightheart OS, a new project that I will be building myself and updating monthly. Today I showcase Lionheart, the Lineage OS to my Cyanogenmod.
Key Features:
1. Heavily Debloated System: The debloat script that was made by me, has over 250+ debloated permissions, apks and other files.
2. Better Battery Performance due to Efficiency - With the removal of an incredible amount of bloat, along with better performance and lesser services, you should be looking at better SOTs and better standby times.
3. Kernel Power Control: With MTweaks and Magisk, you will be able to control your device’s clock speed and be able to force higher GPU and CPU Clock, when doing more intensive tasks such as gaming.
4. Better Kernel Performance - Due to the deepness of the debloat, the kernel now has more RAM and more space to be more efficient and allow it to focus on less threads at once.
5. Current October Patch with the promise of updates every month - Every month an update is released, the ROM will be updated along with it, with a time frame of 1-2 weeks.
6. Restored some stock Google Permissions - Some stock google framework was restored, such as the default setup wizard.
7. All Essential Samsung Features have been kept - All essential OneUI features have been kept alive, for the sole purpose of necessity.
8. Completely Deknoxed -The ROM has been Deknoxed and FRP lock measures have been disabled
9. VoLTE Supported
Individual Features:
1. AdAway
2. Eleven Music
3. Files GO
4. GBoard
5. Android Pie AOSP Emojis
6. Lightheart X Boot Animation
7. AOSP System Sounds
8. Samsung Gallery (Stripped Down and lightened to improve performance)
9. Samsung's Stock Camera with HDR parameter changes, debloated and additional video modes
10. SystemUI Tuner (Provides battery stats along with other useful customizations - Check QS icons and add it to QS Panel to view)
11. YouTube Vanced (Ad-free Youtube)
12. Mtweaks (Has Hardware Control - Similar to Kernel Adiutor but more tailored to Exynos)
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS: (Backup everything, including contacts etc.)
1. Download the zip and download the latest Magisk (ROM will not boot if Magisk is not flashed due to encryption procedures)
2. Wipe System, Data, Dalvik Cache and Cache
3. Flash the zip and flash Magisk.
Notes:
- To view Battery Stats and Storage, pull down the Quick Settings Panel and on the top right click the three bubbles button and then Button Order. Then move the new Battery and Storage icon to the Quick Settings.
- Set Trebuchet as default launcher, for better battery savings. OneUI Home was only included for its app switcher.
Changelog:
1.0 - Initial Release
If changes are made, they will be highlighted in the next post.

Really respect what do you do. keep moving bro.
Can you add samsung account to restore data from last rom.
The op promised monthly updates. It's been two months, and he/she still hasn't replied to the request made 6 days after this was posted. This thread should be considered abandoned and locked. I've about given up hope for this phone, been waiting for a long time for some real activity in the custom roms - it's apparent that's not going to happen.
Cyanogen sucks for this phone anyway (no offense intended to the devs that spend the time trying to give us something better, just stating a fact), it takes all the features away that make this phone stand out. What you end up with is a Motorola that says samsung on the front.

Edit::: this isn't cyanogen. I must have got mixed up with the last thread i was reading. I've been reading note fe rom threads for a few hours now, it's all starting to blend together...

Edit::: it IS cyanogen!! I'm going to take it for a spin anyway, maybe this dev got it right.
Props for giving us another option. I wasn't a fan of project pixel, but that's only because I don't like pixel. You did good work there. I'll post for others what I find.
stabil and good working... THXX
Hi, are you thinking new upgrade?
Sory for my english is bad
Call recorder work but volte and edge panel isn't work
great ROM
This ROM is now sadly discontinued, due to a lack of time and due to the fact that I no longer have time, nor own the device thus making my job that little bit harder. Thankyou everyone for using it though, and hope you find a better one. Link to the ROM will be left up however, for whoever needs it.
