EN: TWRP is no longer relevant for modern Android devices due to changes in system architecture, such as Virtual A/B partitions and the EROFS format, which make modifications difficult and high-risk. In addition to technical encryption hurdles that hinder core features like decryption and data backups, the use of custom recoveries today often triggers system instability or bootloops; therefore, switching to the built-in AOSP Recovery is considered a much safer, more stable, and more efficient solution for modern user needs. ID: TWRP tidak lagi relevan bagi perangkat Android modern karena perubahan arsitektur sistem seperti partisi Virtual A/B dan format EROFS yang membuat modifikasi menjadi sulit dan berisiko tinggi. Selain kendala teknis pada enkripsi yang menghambat fitur utama seperti dekripsi dan pencadangan data, penggunaan custom recovery saat ini sering kali memicu ketidakstabilan sistem atau bootloop, sehingga beralih ke AOSP Recovery bawaan dianggap sebagai solusi yang jauh lebih aman, stabil, dan efisien untuk kebutuhan pengguna saat ini.

My man, I just successfully flashed the halcyon OS. But, when I flashed the mindthegapps, it bricked again. Have tried to do flash rom > reboot recovery > flash gapps, still bricked

If you flash gapps, why don't use gms build from the website?

Because I don't want to, I only want some of the gapps to make it a dumbphone. In the near future, I'll even erase the play store and chrome to make it minimalistic.
