The flag must be present for both prebuild and Gradle because Gradle starts Metro for the release bundle. Keep the source build serial and daemon-free as shown above: compiling every Expo module can exhaust memory when Gradle workers run in parallel. The profile enables source-built Expo modules, excludes the proprietary camera, Firebase notification, and Expo development-client native modules, disables EAS updates and Gradle dependency metadata, and substitutes JavaScript stubs for camera and notifications. The resulting app supports direct and pasted-link pairing but not QR scanning or push notifications.

For a single-ABI APK, pass React Native's architecture property to Gradle:
```bash
PASEO_FDROID_BUILD=1 ./gradlew assembleRelease \
-PreactNativeArchitectures=arm64-v8a \
--no-daemon --max-workers=1 -Dorg.gradle.parallel=false
```
Supported values are `armeabi-v7a`, `arm64-v8a`, `x86`, and `x86_64`. The F-Droid profile filters native libraries to that ABI and changes the APK version code to `baseVersionCode * 10 + abiSuffix`, where the suffixes are ordered `1` through `4` in that same sequence. F-Droid metadata should use four build blocks with `VercodeOperation` entries `10 * %c + 1` through `10 * %c + 4` and pass the matching `reactNativeArchitectures` value in each build command. Builds without a single architecture keep the base version code.
Keep the excluded npm packages installed. Normal builds use them, while the F-Droid profile removes only their Android native modules and config plugins. Paseo always applies `expo-gradle-jvmargs` with `-Xmx4096m` and `-XX:MaxMetaspaceSize=1024m` so local Expo prebuilds have enough Gradle heap whether they use precompiled AARs or source-built Expo modules.

The EAS `production-apk` profile uses the large Android resource class. Release builds compile the native ABIs and run Hermes bundling in the same Gradle invocation; the default worker can exhaust its remaining memory and kill Hermes with exit code 137 even when Gradle's own heap is correctly sized.
