gemma-4-E4B-it-OBLITERATED - GGUF

GGUF quantizations of OBLITERATUS/gemma-4-E4B-it-OBLITERATED, which is an abliterated version of Google's gemma-4-E4B-it produced with the OBLITERATUS method.

Converted and quantized with llama.cpp build b1-f772f6e. These GGUFs support vision, audio input, and tool calling out of the box.

Files

File	Size	BPW	Notes
`gemma-4-E4B-OBLITERATED-F16.gguf`	14 GB	16.00	Full F16 text model (source for requantization)
`gemma-4-E4B-OBLITERATED-Q8_0.gguf`	7.5 GB	8.53	Near-lossless, largest usable quant
`gemma-4-E4B-OBLITERATED-Q5_K_M.gguf`	5.4 GB	6.12	Balanced quality/size
`gemma-4-E4B-OBLITERATED-Q4_K_M.gguf`	5.0 GB	5.67	Recommended for local use
`mmproj-gemma-4-E4B-OBLITERATED-F16.gguf`	945 MB	-	Required for vision/audio. Contains both encoders.

Pair any text GGUF with the mmproj to enable multimodal input.

Usage with llama.cpp

CLI (image + text)

llama-mtmd-cli \
  -m gemma-4-E4B-OBLITERATED-Q4_K_M.gguf \
  --mmproj mmproj-gemma-4-E4B-OBLITERATED-F16.gguf \
  --image your_image.png \
  --jinja -ngl 99 \
  -p "Describe this image in detail."

Server (OpenAI-compatible API with tool use + vision)

llama-server \
  -m gemma-4-E4B-OBLITERATED-Q4_K_M.gguf \
  --mmproj mmproj-gemma-4-E4B-OBLITERATED-F16.gguf \
  --jinja -ngl 99 -c 8192 --port 8080

Then send OpenAI-style requests to http://localhost:8080/v1/chat/completions with tools, tool_choice, and/or image_url content parts.

Notes

--jinja is required - Gemma 4's chat template is custom and will not load without it.
The mmproj contains both vision and audio encoders (1411 tensors). Audio input works the same way as images via the multimodal CLI/server.
This is an abliterated model: refusal directions in 21/42 layers were surgically modified. This can occasionally affect tool-call reliability on refusal-adjacent topics.
Reasoning is emitted through Gemma 4's native thinking channel and surfaced as reasoning_content in OpenAI-compatible responses.

Verified

Smoke-tested on the Q4_K_M build:

Vision: correctly described shapes and colors in a synthetic test image
Tool use: produced a well-formed tool_calls response to a get_weather tool prompt, finish_reason: tool_calls
