This ROM is DISCONTINUED
I am sorry to say I don't find the time to further develop this ROM, if anyone wants to continue this ROM please do so. Just pm me and it's fine. Thanks for using this ROM and for your feedback. Maybe in the future I will begin a new ROM project. For now I am only developping a ROM Download Manager for the desktop, keep an eye on the portal .
Go check it out for screenshots and download :

i`ll give a chance this evening ... looks nice
I have been using this ROM for the last hour or so. I did a backup, clean wipe and fresh flash. I have let the new ROM settle and have done a manual reeboot also.
I am a humble end-user and not a dev but thought that I would give a breakdown of some of my first impressions and observations.
I like the boot annimation alot, I also like the lock screen. Both look clean.
I like the orange font used in the status bar and the pull down menu although the "Wild Ginger" wording in the drop down menu is very blury and looks ugly.
The window transistions are smooth as you like but don't feel snappy quick.
I think the new honeycomb launcher is a nice touch but doesn't seem as intuative as the regular launchers such as ADW; maybe it's because I'm not used to honeycomb yet.
My main gripe about the Honeycomb launcher is that it force closes ALL the time. I have been trying to remove the Google search bar widget that is pre-loaded on screen after first boot and it is impossible (and the widgets aren't even locked to desktop). Also I can't ADD any additional widgets - you can select a widget to add but nothing happens!
From the main screen, waiting for the menu to appear takes about 5seconds which is an age. The "Personalise Honeycomb" menu doesn't fit the whole screen and you can see thick band of the desktop down the right of the screen which is ugly.Once in the preferences menu it isn't at all clear what you are meant to do... You can see the "Apply Settings" button but it took me tapping about the rest of the screen to finally make the actual preferance choices appear.
I have tested inbound and outbound calls and wifi both work as standard. The music player has nice interface, camera works and stock browser is fine. I don't like the dark blue highlight that appears when you press on an app icon it looks clumsy.
The numbers 1,2 and 3 are almost cut in half in the dialer and the green phone "call" icon doesn't seem to fit in it's area neatly.
I like H4oxer's work on this ROM and I hope it continues to get better but with these quite apparent bugs I will respectfully wait for an update before I continue to use this ROM.
Good Work tho!
so ...
good review above .... absolutelly uselless to say more ... 100% same opinions as you EDD ! keep going h4oxer !!!
Thanks guys I really appreciate your feedback ! Will work on it!

from his blog - "Used the froyo libcamera.so library to use the camera app, capturing video still gives force closes."
I guess not
No it doesn't work..still looking into that...has something to do with gpu that we don't have!

tried to flash but no luck stuck at splash screen,did wipe,factory reset,dalvik...how long was first boot for you guys?
You'll have to wait 5-10 minutes... leave it for 10 minutes on first boot..
why I cant see any progres in progres bar in recovery,says instaling update ...
(now no progres of writing files) and afther just 10-15 sec instal complete,is this normal? usualy can see progres and takes a bit longer
Yes it's normal, I didn't payed attention at the progressbar while writing the updater file , but it works don't worry. It installs fast because it had not much apps on board. Just the essential.
10min past stil on my splash screen.no boot animatio yet

Wierd. This ROM is working fine for me. Did you wipe /data and /cache?
yes did everything...dont know simple not booting,stucked on splash screen not even bootanimation
OK....first impressions are good. Startup in less than 4 minutes. Looking good. Everything is working out of the box, no force closing or similar problems. Nice themes, Market app is interesting
LCD density set to 115 and dialpad and everything else looks good
need to be done
- icons in status bar - phone signal at least
- trackpad wakeup
- sound on lock/unlock
- 6x5 icons is too much... 4x5 would be better in my opinion
- Home screen - same as above
- when LCD density changed no way to add widgets or apps to home screen
all in all very good rom, but need a little bit of fixing

Just try it for a whole day now.
Great ROM.
Longer battery life.
But one thing, does anyone realize that too?
The usage of data become greater, especially on Google Play n Update Center.
And the download from playstore often stop suddenly, "waiting for network" on status bar. But the Signal were great and there's no disturbance.
Advice anyone? Thanks

Hi alls, Hi (ola) TTmaster
I'm using your v4 master rom since 3 months ago and i have to say : very great work (it's the one i prefer of yours V rom)
For me , battery is good (i use performance control for cpu and gpu) about three days... i use too , additionnal tweak: like Battery (2), zipaligndata(09), audio(11) and deepsleep(19)
But for better battery life, you have to use "disable service" from PS for google drain...it's like that...
The sound is better than stock with viper and tweak.
Camera good too with"timeshift burst"
Network good
I have some little probleme with performance profile (sometimes it work, sometimes, it don't), but not really a probleme, i don't use it...
So, ttmaster a really big thank for all your work (MUCHAS GRACIAS)
p.s: sometimes, i dream about a V6 master rom......
a lil improvement on performance and battery wud be great if u consider tt
waiting for sm update
best rom thanks
Since Lollipop is out and everyone is eager to know how it is well here is my quick review to Lollipop (Customised US version)
Well it feels great very great ! and very fast !
The animations are fluid
New Features such as Ultra Stamina Mode
Album art in lockscreen when playing music
Multi User
Move2Sd
Smart Unlock
Bravia Engine seems better
Smart notification (When Someone calls you the answer screen won't be full screen instead it is a notification at the top if you are using the phone )
Boot Animation sound
Powered by android line
Take Screenshot from power menu
Pause while recording video
Sound photo
Front Camera face recognition
But there are some minor annoyances
Such as
1- Icons are too big
2- Clock Widget is too small
3-Smart Unlock voice isn't working as it should
4-No X-Loud
5- Close all button is ugly
6-Notification bar looks ugly if the app wasn't designed to use the API

First impressions of LP
Last night I flashed US c5502 fw on my phone.
The first boot took longer than expected and phone got very hot. I could no hold it in hand.
So I kept it as it is without going through initial setup. Phone battery was 49%
Today morning when I checked the battery was at 49% ( surprised and shocked )
I did the setup and started discovering the LP.
The UI is butter smooth. actually its smoother than KK 4.4.4
All latest apps are there like home, keyboard, etc. US fw has lesser bloats than indian fw so I am thinking to use it for a while.
Disabled unwanted apps which can be disabled. I havent tried rooting yet. Wifi BT Data connection work flawlessly. there is no drop in 3G connectivity which I experienced a lot in 4.4.4
I hope sony will release the update for heating issue once they get all the feedbacks
Xposed works?!

This is because of the new feature present in every Lollipop ROM - Android Runtime (ART), a new method of building app cache. It takes a lot more space to compile, but the user apps are faster, and that's why you guys feel like the ROM is smooth and fast.
Every older version used Dalvik runtime - a slower version than the new one.

Helloo guys, my 2nd gen moto is working great everything is smooth as butter but recently while switching between apps the SCREEN becomes white and it takes a lag of 2secs or so, but sometimes there is no lags. My phone is rooted though i have not installed any custom ROM and I use very limited apps. Xposed installer with basic apps like gravity box, xui mod, LMT and no heavy apps.. Apart from switching apps or going back to home screen evrything is just perfect.
p.s: I wipe partition cache evry 3weeks or so..
Need solution guys...Help
thanks in advance

i hope your not right,because i was holding my breath for better battery:crying::crying::crying::crying:
Poor battery is due to processor heating which is hardware issue. Software update would not make much difference.
Nougat is certified for Z3+ and Z5 http://www.xperiablog.net/2017/01/1...or-xperia-z5-and-z3-plus-series-32-3-a-0-372/

Can't say about battery, but used camera for some time and everything was normal, didn't notice any significant heating. For me looks like it's gonna be better than MM.
Happy so far!
P.S. There is advanced setting in Stamina mode, 3 levels of savings available now, and on second option no animation is disabled, but slight stutter is seen while scrolling here and there. I turned it on and battery feels like can last 2 days easy on this setting on moderate use. They consume power by unnoticeable degradation in scrolling / animation etc. SWEET!

ty
ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF THIS ANDROID 7 ON Z3+.
Advantages..
1. Battery is lasting more than MM.
2. Stamina mode comes with 3 level stamina features.
3. Split Screen Apps are awesome.
4. Heating is less, I think they avhieved that by closing the background apps.
5.Camera app doesnt heatup the phone and lasts open till 5 min( I checked for 5 minutes only may be it ll show heating warning after that, I just dont know about it).
6. Now both the wallpaper and lockscreen can be handled easily with the same option WALLPAPER provided at SETTING app.
Disadvantages.
1. The Icons for the apps CONTACTS, MESSAGING, PHONE, CAMERA are so ugly.
2. One cannot go to the homepage by clicking recent navbar and then by clicking at the clear space of the recent apps menu.
3. While phone is locked the phone doesnt react to double tap unlock like it used to be in MM.
4. While the phone is locked the Icons of battery, network, clock etc are placed slightly lower than the Icons placed in the unlocked screen. LOCKING UNLOCKING CREATES AN UGLY LOOK OF MISPLACEMENT OF THESE ICONS.
5. The Battery icon in the status bar is too weird. ( Doesnt like it look).
6. The Data traffic indicator ( the small arrows up and down are way too small, the indicator which shows below 2g, 3g, H+ and LTE on the status bar)
7. They removed the option of selecting the FOCUS MODE in the camera app.
8. I compared the pictures taken by my phone when its in LP, MM AND N, I must say in LP this phone used to capture photos brilliantly, in MM the pics are somewhat lower than LP. But in N the pics quality are not upto marks. I think thats all because of this focus thing. Now the phone focus the way it wants to).
9. Remove/ Quit apps wisely, I am downloading some apps from UC BROWSER and then I exit the app and keep the downloading in the background but when I cleared the app from the recent apps list just to make my recent app section to look empty, it stopped my downloading too and the APP UC BROWSER was completely shut. (This option is in LP TOO BUT NOT IN MM) So close apps wisely.
11. They abandoned the small apps, Yes they are there but not easily accessible, now accessing small apps are quit pain in the ASS.
12. The apps in the Recent apps looks very big.
13. New quick tiles are good but one cannot direct shut data from there.
Thats all dear Fellas, I like the UI OF MM more than this N.
I THINK SONY JUST BAKED THIS N FOR US IN HURRY.
If I missed anything than please guys you can add that on your comments.
