Software GearLock - Custom Recovery Replacement for Android-x86 7.3.15

I realized that there was a simple typo in a thing, although it's no critical but but had to fix it. So GearLock 6.6 was re-uploaded.

ChangeLog

• Resolve all issues with android-10 (Q) and now GearLock is officially stable for android-10. ( Special thanks to @Electrikjesus for helping me with booting up one of his android-10 builds since i was having issues with it )
  
  
• GearLock now supports Vietnamese language and this is the first translation ( All credits to @HMTheBoy154 for translating it )
  
  
• Fixed all issues regarding supercharing for android oreo and above ( Reported by @Rocky Balboa )
  
  
• Many things rewritten of recovery-mode which brings more optimization and stability in recovery-mode.|
  
  
• Fix the bug where GearLock won't load when system.sfs is used to initially boot.
  
  
• Bugfix for gearboot where it shows some misleading warnings on firstboot and optimizations in it.
  
  
• The HOST_ARCH variable is now more reliable with a better implementation for developers.
  
  
• Boost REQUEST_SYNC stage of GXPM installation progress by 3x times for NTFS.
  
  
• Improvements in GearLock-Installer.
  
  
• Improvements in fixextfs & img-extender.

This is the sum of a total 537 commits made in 5weeks focused in optimization, improvements, bugfixes and new-implementations. Below I will try to note out the key changes in a small chnagelog. It's literally the biggest GearLock update by date.

Warning: All of the old kernel packages have been repacked with bugfixes and you must re-download them to avoid any error !!!!!!!! (Phew, it wasn't easy, please don't avoid this message !!!!!!!!!!!)

ChangeLog

1. New feature: Mesa Driver Version faker.
   
   
2. New feature: Now you can repair ext4 partition even without supercharging.
   
   
3. New feature: MidNight Commander FileManager integration in recovery mode. ( #feature-request by @dam && Suggestion by @HMTheBoy154 )
   
   
4. Complete rewrite of GearLock-Installer (Now its a system-indipendent binary, size:38MB)
   * Complete rewrite of GXPM (GearLock Extension & Package Manager)
   * Extensive improvements have been made.
   * It will also force all files to be properly written before reboot.
   * GXPM and garca has been boosted by 3x more speeeed and will preserve all attars statically
   * Add zstd compression method support in garc and p7zip for GXPM (Suggested by @HMTheBoy154 )
   
   
5. Add support for android 10 + 4 + 5 (Not stable for andrid-10)
   
   
6. Now your system will get auto supercharged if not after recovery mode (might be helpful for bliss12.x builds by @Electrikjesus )
   
   
7. GearLock-Installer no longer needs to patch secondary ramdisk.img
   
   
8. Now you can change GearLock configuration easily thru GearLock > Settings (Default theme, norecovery, second-tty etc can be configured)
   
   
9. MetroUi box sizing has been maximised in recovery-mode & in tty.
   
   
10. Before gearlock was partially 100% system-indipendent, but now its totally independent. Because even if you boot with an empty /system you will be still able to operate within recovery-mode. (Before gearlock could only survive if you're already booted but you wiped your system)
    
    
11. Now there are external command line user-utils, they are gxpm, gstatus, fixscreen, gearlock-cli.
    * So, you could do gsudo gxpm -i package-name.gxp to install a gearlock package/extension directly thru command line.
    * Ref: https://supreme-gamers.com/gearlock/gearlock-user-utils

15. GearLock wrapper terminal app has been improved a lot, it will also fix terminal sizing when su shell is invoked automatically by running fixscreen.
    * Also fix issues with ALT button handling in stuff like nano and such. (Thanks to @Night for the heads up)
    
    
16. Added a smaller version of bootsound (Credits: @Night )
    
    
17. GearLock boot image size has been reduced by about 40megs, thus it is 80mb now in raw size while it was 120mb before.
    
    
18. All the gearlock libraries & binaries have been recompiled and heavily optimized.
    
    
19. Introducing hook system which allows you to modify gearlock core without touching the actual core.
    * Ref: https://supreme-gamers.com/gearlock/customize-integrate-gearlock
    
    
20. GearLock now supports utf8 with mutilang. (EN, VN, CN, ES) (Currently being translated for VN by @HMTheBoy154 , anyone else interested in contributing over this is welcome)

28. Improvements in recovery mode, also some additional changes made to avoid kernel panic in some really darn old devices. (Could be helpful for posbr mods by @erikads898 )

If you're having uEFI BIOS and tried to install GearLock 6.3, the installation might fail and GearLock may not work properly. So, under such circumstances you can try 6.2 and it should work fine. The reason I'm saying this is because you can't expect a bugfix update for this any sooner than 10 days or more.

To get 6.2, click on RELEASES tab.

ChangeLog

• Tons of optimization in booting sequence. (May help in hanged up android init issues)
• Faster mounting strategies.
• Some python implementation to avoid unnecessary loops and speed up tasks.
• Miscellaneous bug-fixes and optimizations across whole GearLock and in it's sub-projects.
