So got a Gcam module working on it, with little to no effort. Working well.
Debloater as well, little to no effort right out the box. Debloater and Vanced manager go hand it hand to get ad-less Youtube working, which now it does.
Viper4Android proving a lot tricker as is always the case with it. Got a one stop solution off of XDA which does the trick with minimal fuss but things are behaving a little erratically since installing. Not sure if it's on account of all the tinkering I did before applying the one stop solution or not but... warrants further investigation but Viper is a pain, I won't lie, well worth it though!!!
Custom fonts are a no dice. Fonts work very differently on A12 apparently so it might be a while, although I see another update for Font Manager module so let me get cracking on that and see if it works....
