OneUI7 - Sandboxed OS & Scrapped One UI5.1 Beta Feature

You Need [Shizuku](https://shizuku.rikka.app/) for this to run!

Steps to Enable the Sandboxed Android System:

1. Download [SystemUI Tuner](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zacharee1.systemuituner) from the Play Store.
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.

It might be helpful to explain the circumstances which people might choose to use this and what caveats would apply in so doing.

Hello @FoxyThePirate !

Thank you for an informative post!

Nevertheless, please note that this is not original software and that anyone who undertakes it does so at their own risk.

Moreover, during the Beta tests I would not recommend using such options, as once a bug occurs it can be difficult to fix it due to the fact that it is a non-standard configuration, as the Beta version itself is such.

Have a lovely day! 😊
