Thor v1.92.3 Release Notes

A lean-and-reliable release. The direct-download APK is nearly half the size, the app-suspend feature is fixed on release builds, and Thor's in-house root engine — Odin, our libsu fork — is now a published open-source library with a hang-proof root probe and honest shell exit codes.

What's Changed

📦 Much Smaller Download — foss APK 6.23 MB → 3.24 MB (−48%)

• The direct-download APK now compresses its classes.dex (useLegacyPackaging), the foss build is obfuscated (matching the store build), and foss ships only its bundled locales — together nearly halving the foss-release APK (38d875b).
• The bundled fonts were also subset, trimming ~180 KB with no glyph regressions (38d875b).
• Note: Google Play App Bundles are delivered per-device and are, by design, largely unaffected by the dex-packaging lever — this size win is biggest for the GitHub / direct-download APK.

🐛 App Suspend Fixed on Release Builds (#265)

• Suspending / unsuspending apps silently failed on release / Play builds: R8 renamed bundled framework shadow classes, so the runtime calls hit the real framework classes and threw. The shadows are removed and the root-service daemon is kept intact, so suspend works again on shipped builds (77ec023).

🔧 Odin — Root Engine Extracted & Hardened (#264, #266)

• Thor's in-house libsu fork is now the standalone, Apache-2.0 Odin library, published to Maven Central as com.trinadhthatakula:odin:1.0.0. The :suCore module is gone and Thor consumes the published dependency (aacc18e).
• Hang-proof root probe: root detection can no longer wedge the app — a failed shell init is signalled via onShellDied and the isRootGranted probe is time-bounded, and it correctly rethrows cancellation (0560e93, ec75323).
• Honest exit codes: root shell commands now return the real process exit code — matching the Shizuku/Dhizuku gateways — instead of a hard-coded success (aacc18e).
• Tighter root IPC: added a reusable RootService.enforceCaller() so only Thor can bind the privileged service (c77c668).

🧹 Polish — Lint, Qodana & Leaner Vectors (#268, #269)

• Resolved the outstanding Android lint + Qodana findings: correct <plurals> handling, unused-resource cleanup, mipmap-anydpi rename, and coroutines bumped to 1.11.0 (979f937).
• Losslessly compacted the two largest vector drawables (thor_mono, thor_drawn_foreground) — −6.8 KB with pixel-identical rendering, verified by render-diff (AE == 0) at multiple sizes (7055d50, 7903a07).
