OneUI7 - Sandboxed OS & Scrapped One UI5.1 Beta Feature
Steps to Enable the Sandboxed Android System:
2. Give SystemUI Tuner Shizuku privileges.
3. Open SystemUI Tuner and go to Lock screen shortcuts.
4. Select Left or Right shortcut.
5. Search for "Dynamic System Updates" and choose:
- com.android.dynsystem/.VerificationActivity
6. Use your fingerprint or password to confirm.
🔔 You should receive a notification stating that Dynamic System Updates are ready.
Now, you will be able to reboot into a sandboxed Android system.

My Testing Experience:
- When I did this, I rebooted into a welcome screen and had to set up the entire phone again inside the sandbox.
- My 506GB of storage remained untouched.
- Fingerprint data was corrupted when I returned to the main system. You will have to set your fingerprint up again!
- I signed in with my Samsung account inside the sandbox, but had to re-login when I returned to the main system. (Do not sign in with Samsung account)
⚠️ Warning:
Do not sign in with your Google or Samsung account inside the sandbox, as backup services may kick in and fill up storage quickly by downloading apps.

Scrapped OneUI 5.1 Multi-User Feature
Steps to Access the Hidden Multi-User Option:
1. Open SystemUI Tuner.
2. Go to Lock screen shortcuts.
3. Search for "SystemUI" and select:
- com.android.systemui/.user.CreateUserActivity
This was a multi-user option back in the One UI 5.1 beta, but it is no longer functional.
You can also find references to this feature in SetEdit under the global table:
- `"lock_add_profile"`
- `"lock_remove_profile"`
- `"lock_reset_profile"`

In the My Files app, there's a section labeled **"Other profiles"** — but is it referring to the **Dynamic System** sandbox or the **Users** profile?
I haven't found a way to enter another profile, only the sandboxed system.
