A standout feature of this specific image is its VNDK-lite variant, which is designed to provide Read/Write (R/W) access to the system partition. Key Features of this GSI:

• Perform a factory reset from recovery.
• Flash a different vndklite variant or a non-vndklite version.

• A performance-tuned kernel or system tweaks.
• A specific set of patches for better compatibility with problematic devices.
• A custom theming or UI modification (e.g., roar-themed boot animations or icons).
