The Hasli hub labels this branch LMC9.6 Release 1, while the linked source currently lists Release 1 Fix2 artifacts. This guide identifies the current files explicitly.
Source requirement: Android 12 or newer.
The hub listing date is 2026-06-21. A separate Fix2 artifact date is unconfirmed. These are 9.6 files, separate from every LMC 8.4 download.
Documented changes
Swipe-down and swipe-up panels provide quick access to settings, modes, profiles, and configs.
The branch introduces LUT creation, six profiles, three quick configs, a shared PRO patcher, and section-level copying.
Tone/gamma presets, Camera2 debugging, and custom-data loading are included; the developer describes substantial optimization.
Configuration and limits
The source explicitly requires Android 12 or newer.
This is a separate 9.6 branch; do not describe it as the latest 8.4 APK.
The Samsung variant uses scan3d here, not the ruler ID used by earlier Samsung-named variants.
Our 8.4 device/XML catalog does not establish 9.6 support. Consult the 9.6 source notes before importing an old preset. Back up settings and test main camera, selfie, auxiliary lenses and video independently.
You meet the stated requirement and want profile switching or custom LUT tools.
A reason to keep your current setup
A working camera is a useful baseline
Your Android version is below 12 or your current camera setup already meets your needs.
What to check when you switch
Back up your working setup.
Start with a 9.6-specific device configuration.
Check which profile and global PRO patcher settings affect each test.
Config detail that matters
The 9.6 config index uses /LMC9.6/. An 8.4 filename or folder is not evidence of 9.6 compatibility.
Original migration checklist. It illustrates a method, not a measured release comparison.
Release 1 Fix 2 questions answered
Is it Release 1 or Fix 2?
The hub says Release 1; the current artifact page and filenames say Release 1 Fix 2.
Do profiles isolate every setting?
The notes describe the PRO patcher as global across profiles.
Does Android 12 guarantee it works?
It is a stated minimum, not a device-specific compatibility result.
