Viaan Thakur | Developer & Android Builder

01. Initialize Profile

I'm an independent Android software developer and Linux enthusiast focused on pushing device hardware beyond official limitations. My core work involves "bringing up" devices to the latest Android versions—specifically maintaining Android 16 builds with current security patches for hardware officially marked "End of Life".

Performance optimization is critical to my workflow. I prefer high-performance minimal Linux distributions like Ubuntu Minimal and CachyOS, optimizing the kernel (XanMod, BORE) to slash AOSP build times on restrictive hardware.

Beyond source code compilation, I dive into hardware-level audio modifications—porting DSPs like Sony Dolby Atmos to non-native device trees—and maintain automation bots for seamless community releases.

05. Execution History

Recent Cycles

AstraKernel v1.1 Deployment

Successfully backported SusFS and KernelSU to legacy 4.14 kernel branches, navigating complex dependency conflicts and C compilation errors to bypass modern root detections.

Previous Architecture

Python Unbrick Automation

Designed a PySide6 GUI utility mimicking PixelFlasher capabilities. Stemmed from a manual EDL mode unbricking of a Lenovo Tab M10 HD after a failed GSI test.

Foundation Phase

ROM Compile Operations

Transitioned from Windows to high-performance Linux setups (Ubuntu Minimal / Arch). Managed to optimize hardware constraints, dropping AOSP build times significantly using custom toolchains.

Boot Sequence

Initial Modding

Began with unlocking bootloaders and basic custom ROM flashing, eventually expanding into building source code and establishing the Larry ROM Archive for community preservation.
