Is it safe and recommended to use CCleaner on a Custom ROM?

Hi guys, I'm quite new to the Android custom ROM scene. I want to ask, is it actually safe or even useful to use apps like CCleaner to clean cache and optimize performance on a Custom ROM? Or does a Custom ROM already handle system optimization well enough without third-party cleaners? I would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks!

Pixel 6 locked with Anubis - Bootloader locked, Recovery doesn't work. Is there any way to restore stock firmware?

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to recover my Google Pixel 6 (oriole, 128GB) and I'm stuck.

Device information

  • Model: Pixel 6 (oriole)
  • Bootloader: LOCKED
  • Secure Boot: PRODUCTION
  • Device state: locked
  • Storage: 128GB
  • RAM: 8GB

Problem

The phone boots to a screen that says:

>

I don't know what Anubis is or where this unlock code came from.

Things I've tried

  • Booted into Fastboot successfully.
  • Recovery Mode does nothing (black screen/no recovery).
  • Bootloader is locked.
  • I haven't been able to flash stock firmware because of the locked bootloader.

Fastboot screen

(Attached the Fastboot Mode photo)

Anubis screen

(Attached the Anubis screen photo)

My questions

  1. What exactly is Anubis on a Pixel 6?
  2. Is it a custom ROM, MDM, or something else?
  3. Is there any legitimate way to remove Anubis and restore stock Android?
  4. Has anyone successfully recovered a Pixel 6 from this state?
  5. Is there any service tool or official Google procedure for this?

I own this phone and I'm fine with erasing all data if necessary. I just want to get it working again.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Gifted tablet with custom ROM

I was just gifted a kindle fire HD 8 (8th generation) and based on what I can seem to find it seems to have a custom ROM installed. There’s no Amazon AppStore or the preloaded apps. It says it’s running android version 7.1.2, and several factory resets have done nothing.
The problem is the person that gifted it to me didn’t mess with it, and I didn’t, and every answer I found on the internet said you have to know what was changed to be able to put it back.
How can I fix this?
