Your warranty (is expired? if not PM me how you managed to keep it otherwise) is now void.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war,

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.

P.S. I do undertake device support/feature requests, provided it is a G530* and you can wait!

 

[itexpert.120]

Nice Job Bro!
Hope that rest of the bugs will get fixed quickly.

hey guys, this is doc. havent bothered to change my username yet. (and i guess xda wouldn't allow me anyway, i already changed my username once)
actually, bluetooth only works fully on fortuna3gdtv lol (and possibly any other non-XX/XC baseband variant, eg fortunalteub / G530M)

IIRC it works on fortuna3g perfectly too

AetherLite R10 is up!

Installation instructions and downloads

1. Reboot into custom recovery.
2. Flash AetherLite_R10.zip from here: Aether Lite R10
3. Want root access? Latest SuperSU: SuperSU
4. Reboot & Enjoy!

Make sure to uncheck "Diagnostic Data" in Setup Wizard or you will have signal issues!
Do not flash Magisk with this kernel as it causes overheating and battery issues. (Due to some conflicts with LMK and Magisk)
It's normal for your device to restart once when on the boot animation after flashing SuperSU. (don't conclude it's a bootloop if that happens)

R10 means 10th version.

 

[AYUSH NETWORK]

Btw the it needs to be lot more compressed according to the standards

R10 means 10th version.

Bro doesn't it suitable , means that actually file size is to much greater thn what it seems to be build for android standard

Maybe because it is aroma installer and tw-n???

 

[AYUSH NETWORK]

Hope well

Maybe because it is aroma installer and tw-n???

Yeah but lot's of more custom roms are there which are being pre-installed aroma features and many other lot's of valuable features ; but this is rom is what mainly creates some less advantage for download due to its large file size .
Thank you

Do me a favour and list some of the ROMs (you're talking about, probably link me to it) running Touchwiz N released for any device having the zip size less than this one? (dw I've de-bloated it leaving out all the essential features in it and added a few too)

Also, R10 features an Installer that deploys fixes and the kernel for each supported variant. (HXX/HXC/F/FZ/BT)
It's not an aroma installer that I've included.

Then again, the /system size of the zip is the same as that of our beloved stock lollipop.

Boot loop (G530BT)

EDIT: Works now, don't install supersu with twrp

Bro, this is not AOSP Rom, it is samsung's tw and nougat on that. The Stock ROM for Grand prime is roughly 600-900MB. Compared to this rom, this is much lighter and better. Also, this rom is not a build to begin with. This is a ported ROM from other samsung device.

 

[AYUSH NETWORK]

Does this rom support OTA updates or it has been updates over air

Bro I want to ask something about this rom , is it support OTA updates ; does it get updated by software updates or u frequently update this rom with on time air upadtes ??

---------- Post added at 06:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:28 AM ----------

Bro just u can please tell me in brief about it battery performance and task management ability to stand battery and stable performance of overall android for a particular time period ??

 

[CaelestisZ]

Boot loop (G530BT)

EDIT: Works now, don't install supersu with twrp

@Kamin4ri tested SuperSU on G530BT, and it doesn't cause a boot loop in G530BT or in any of the supported variants.
It's normal for your device to restart once when on the boot animation after flashing SuperSU. (don't conclude it's a bootloop if that happens)
Next time, be patient.
Please refrain from posting messages with utmost surety when you're actually not sure about it.
