R14 changes the interface styling, reduces animation use and adds system noise-model options. It also changes default tone/gamma behavior. This means a familiar scene can look different even before you deliberately tune it, making a controlled comparison useful.
Documented changes
- Material You styling, system noise models, and noise-model tuning were introduced.
- The update reduces animation use, expands noise-fix values, changes defaults, and uses smoother tone/gamma curves.
Configuration and known limits
- The author recommends a clean installation and supports earlier configs.
- The release documents limitations in system noise-model tuning and dynamic ISO selection.
The main catalog separates the R15 and R16+ config indexes. For this historical build, follow the exact release source and its notes; a modern XML listing is not proof it works on this release.
Install and test this build
Export existing settings before replacing an app with the same package ID. Install one variant, confirm default camera operation, then load a matched XML and test each lens separately. See APK installation, XML import, and crash diagnosis.
Unverified metadata
- Minimum Android version, file size, cryptographic hash, and exact upstream patch number were not confirmed by this release page.
