Case study by [Eoin Villarin](https://amvprosox.com/about). Android · Custom ROM, 2026, Role: ROM Developer & Maintainer. Canonical: https://amvprosox.com/case-studies/lunaris-os-poco-f8-pro

An unofficial Lunaris OS 3.10 (Lunaris-AOSP) build for the Poco F8 Pro (annibale) on Android 16 QPR2. A light, highly customizable vanilla ROM with the Singularity settings hub, themes and gradients, released with OrangeFox install steps.

## Key results

- **16** Android version (QPR2)
- **3.10** Lunaris-AOSP version
- **June 2026** Released
- **0** Bloatware apps

## The challenge

After the crDroid release, testers in my group asked for a second option with a different style and more visual customization. Lunaris OS had no build for the Poco F8 Pro, and it needed to run on the same HyperOS 3 global firmware without breaking the camera, modem or fingerprint sensor.

It also had to stay easy to install for people who prefer OrangeFox recovery and want to add Google apps themselves.

## The solution

I built Lunaris OS 3.10 from the Lunaris-AOSP source on Android 16 QPR2 with the annibale device trees, as a VANILLA-Community package, and released it on June 2, 2026. The About phone screen lists the maintainer as amvprosox and the version as Lunaris-AOSP 3.10.

The download includes OrangeFox recovery, and the install guide covers formatting data, sideloading the ROM and flashing MindTheGapps afterwards. Screenshots, the changelog and known bugs went to my Telegram project group for testers.

## Build details

- ROM: Lunaris OS 3.10 (Unofficial), Lunaris-AOSP on Android 16 QPR2
- Device: Poco F8 Pro (annibale)
- Released: June 2, 2026, status Beta
- Package type: VANILLA-Community
- Recovery: OrangeFox (included in the download)
- Required firmware: HyperOS 3 global

## Features

Lunaris puts its tweaks in one settings hub called Singularity.

- User Interface: Quick Switch to change the default launcher, a Themes store with icon packs, color customization, gradient colors for system elements, navbar styles, font settings and ambient display
- Quick Settings, Notifications, Lock screen and Status bar sections
- System, Buttons (system and volume buttons) and Sound tweaks
- A playful, editable device info card on the Android version screen
- Clean light and dark themes with blurred Quick Settings

## How to install (adb sideload)

- Reboot to bootloader and flash the OrangeFox recovery boot image from the download folder
- Boot to recovery and format data
- Choose Apply from ADB
- On your computer run: adb sideload lunarisos.zip
- Reboot to recovery
- Flash MindTheGapps if you want Google apps
- Reboot system

Back up first, because formatting data wipes the phone. Use the HyperOS 3 global firmware before flashing.

## Known issues and support

- Ultra HDR photos in the Aperture camera app
