Xposed doesnt seem to work. Xposed installer says 'Installed, but not active'. When trying to install systemless framework, the installer app crashes.
Am I doing something wrong here or..?
EDIT: Tried few times to reflash the rom but every time after setting up the phone, if I reboot I will be stuck in bootloop.
Hi, you are the second to tell that, I will do test after tomorrow to try my setup, right now it was ok.

It's active only if you flash Magisk v14 , which is inside rom installation.
By order it must be :
1: Magisk
2: Xposed
Hi speedo, nice to see that you are devoloping for our nice device. I have tested all your roms but aktual i am returned to your mmkang 3.2, running as a good daily driver. Coming from it, is it possible to flash your rom with twrp, like your other roms?
Should I delete fingerprints before flashing?
Thank you. I am very curious to test it...
For next versions, it would be nice to have a dark theme, looking like oreo or nougat...
After installation, the google maps application does not start
Hi speedo,, i leave miui for this one, could i suggest you to add smart-e (better than floating control for me), and can you tell me how you hide navbar? Thanks.
PIXELIZED OS
Hey guys it's enzo2001 here, introducing you Pixelized OS. My aim on this ROM is to make the tab 4 smooth, up to date and with Pixel look and Android P which is latest android version. I make Pixelized OS for 3 devices which is SM-T231/T230/T230NU, the difference between SM-T231 and SM-T230/T230NU is the SM-T231 version include Dialer, Contacts and Messages for 3G users while the SM-T230/NU version i removed Dialer, Contacts and Messages for Wi-Fi users.
In this ROM i removed lot of Samsung and System bloatwares and added many mods and tweaks to boost the ROM performance to max and i replaced stock samsung app to Material Apps and Google Apps except Dialer (SM-T231) and Contacts (SM-T231)

Thank you for this release. I have it installed on a T230nu and so far my initial impressions are pretty good, it's weird about the resolution...I kind of don't like it but in a way I do.. The font is soooooo tiny, I mean very, Very!!! Tiny, this can kind of be changed with the app settings xposed module, but honestly I think the factory resolution fits better, I use gboard swipe typing and it is kind of hard to do at this resolution. On the t230nu their is also a no service notification that is constantly there. On the recents menu the task manager and close all, is kind of cluttered and you cannot see what they really say. The ROM runs great though and I love how bare bones it is, I'll definitely keep track of this thread, and once again thank you for the work on this.

Thanks for the update. For anyone wondering this ROM really runs great and it's a nice balance between performance/battery. A thing to note though, some apps that will install on normal smt230 ROMs will not install, for example, Instagram. A easy way around that is too install yalp store , so no big deal.

Thanks for the feedback.. do u have any screenshot of the installing apps problem.. i think i can fix it
It's not a error, when you go to play store to install it, it says device is not compatible,on other roms it installs fine. If that problem was fixed and if you could turn off the no service thing, and disable more of the cell phone stuff I'd say this would be top pick of roms for this device.
Did you clean install or dirty flash the new rom? I had it happen to me a while back (maybe 10-12 versions ago of this rom) play store would not allow me to install basic apps that I had just installed before the flash. I would follow the directions, wipe & reinstall the rom. By the way Enzo2001, the version numbers are all screwed up again, making it very hard for a person to 1)download an update, because they are the same name, 2)during install of rom in TWRP, it shows a different name compared to the filename, 3)settings/about has different name than install name. It going to get confusing for all, including you

It was a clean flash, I never dirty flash a rom.

1.0 is the latest one for now as this is the new xda thread.. for new update ill just make it to 1.1
Enzo2001, you didn't read my post. The title of your thread is "pixelized Rom v1.0. the 1st download link, the room is called pixel_light v1.0. then someone complains of the text being to small, you give a link to a new version called pixel_ light v1.0 which is the same as the 1st version. Then in twrp it says you are installing a different name Rom, and finally the settings/about. Please clean it up so people don't install the wrong one. For example, I used a file mgr, I looked at download time and date to know which to use, but in twrp/install, it doesn't show the date & time

Here some common Q/A regarding Magisk ROM which new users want to have.
What is Magisk ROM?
Magisk ROM is small modified part of ROM which applies systemlessly. Though modification remains same as full ROM. Most of OneUI based full ROM have hardly 2-5% of modification systemwide but it integrates to system to make a full ROM. Magisk ROM also have same modification but it is systemless and use magisk overlay function. So, modification part remain same whether it is Magisk or Full ROM
Why Magisk ROM choosen over Full ROM?
Actually when S22 released, For long time there was no option to modify system because of new f2fs system ro partition type. So during this time I have choosen to make Magisk ROM so user at least have an option for all the modification which I commonly have in my all previous full ROMs. After so many users liked it so thought this to continue where there is no full ROM support I can provide due to time.
Magisk ROM doesn't have system-rw?
System-rw is complete different thing. As of now Full ROm also don't have system-rw support, in future if there is system-rw script available, Magisk ROM will work on both conditions.
Magisk ROM is made with different base from my variant
Samsung stock ROM almost have 90-98% files same in system with different variant. My Magisk ROM hardly uses any file that is different variant wise. So if you are using different base in theoretically only almost files you are using are same in all variant.
What is Debloting option?
As said earlier system-rw capabilities have nothing to do with Magisk ROM, If you wish you can make system-rw and debloat what you want. Indeed making full ROM with system-rw developer needs to struggle to remove bloatware. As system-rw needs more space compared to compressed system-ro. So making full ROM with all partition rw, you must have to remove good amount of bloatware while with Magisk ROM have complete user choice what to remove or keep.
It is difficult to update new firware compare to full ROM?
No, most of OneUI based full ROM still ask you to update to latest stock firmwre before using full ROM. Updating stock firmware also possible without even wiping data (Though must make backup for safety), Read post #4 for more details. Sort procedure is - Update firmware + keep root all in one go → Update ROM module - That's it.
Changelog have ROM installation guide. Also Magisk ROM module may work if your base is not matching. You can find more info in changelog post.
Apart from ll these queries, as a devloper Here some reasons why I prefer magisk ROM
Very easy to updte ROM. I have updated ROM as ealy as just few hrs only.
Easier Installation.
Easier Uninstallation : Didn't like ROM? simply disable modules and you are back to stock.
Support most of variant in One ROM. Also since A13, I am planning to add support for S22 (non ultra) devices too.
No feature wise limitation with magisk ROM.
What is Best way to Install magisk ROM?
Nothing special. Simply Root your device. It doesn't matter If you are using root with stock recovery or TWRP, You are using encrypted or decrypted data, using system-ro or rw. You are free to choose one suites you best. As far as you have rooted device, you can use Magisk ROM.
I prefer full ROM : Currently we are supporting full ROM with System-RW only for S908B, S908E and S908N. For other variant only option available is Magisk Module ROM
I hope these will make clear many points new users may have with Magisk ROM Module.
Regards.

TOP! My Ultra will be arriving any time now, then I'll try Root and module T03. I'm still not sure if Tweaks is a Magisks Module of fill ROM. If kust a Module then I would buy it instead of T03. In that casa, is there a uncomplicated way via paypal to send the money to get tweaks?
Sorry for such basic question, but its all a bit new. KR, fc
