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.

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
--jinjais 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_contentin 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_callsresponse to aget_weathertool prompt,finish_reason: tool_calls
