How to change ROM Easily
Answer is Mik's new-baseband-patch
In past if you wanted to install any Custom ROM after you flashed official 2.3.3, you had to use KDZ tool to go back to Official 2.2 to get the network working.
but now you can easily flash any custom ROM by recovery. and if you do not see network(as you won't) then flash new-baseband-patch and bingo now you have signal....
BTW If you face any GSM or DATA related Issue after flashing this patch then report this to mik not me........

Help and Suggestion will be appreciated
Thank you

Good for you
WOW.. Someone actualy posted instructions, good on you for taking the time to do that.
I think there is something in device manager that has to be disabled before doing the above steps.
I thought is was funny to see a stock rom hit in the 900 in quadrent. Will try the rom tomorrow.

It is already written here? "My" ROM is a stock rooted LG v20g with a2sd, no other changes done.

This may sound stupid but why can't you just flash the ROM why all these steps also can you add any other mods after you flash the rom??? Like franco tweaks or ungazes data2sd????

This ROM is an official one that's why I won't flash it. LG will never be better than mik, andy or franco. However, I have a question : where can I find the icon's of the settings app from your ROM ? I like them and I want to modify a little mik's ROM to add these icons for myself

mistake - deleted system file

I made a mistake -- on my rooted Droid 3 /5.7.906 XT 862 Verizon/ I deleted system aplication "contacts storage" (I wanted to remove some adds on from Verizon) . Now I can´t see any contact in my phone when dialing - There is annoucement - the application Contacts (proces com.motorola.contacts) has stopped unexpectedly. Please, help me, is there any solution?
Thanks Peter

Just do a wipe or SBF. Or better yet what you could do is flash like MavROM and get the same benefits of the stock ROM plus no junk.

Thank you, I will flash MavROM. I´m new in android, I have red some guides for flashing .
1. Please which SAFESTRAP do you recomend for MavROM?
2. How to install safestrap /I installed just aplications from google play/
Thank you Peter

First you will need to root your phone. Rooting is giving full access to your phone and is needed to do this stuff. Search around for that as there are plenty of guides. Second, Safestrap 2.0 is a good version (look on rombot.droidhive.com under solana I think). You toggle safe mode then download Mavrom's > 100MB zip file to your SD card, flash it (use the volume buttons for down/up in the menu or the menu and home keys and use the search button to select), wipe your data and cache, and go to the advanced and wipe Delvik. After that you should be good to go. Keep in mind you will loose your /data so if you have text messages or levels of Angry Birds you want to back up you will have to research that. Use Google and the forum's search features to find how to do all this.

[XT907 Rom][Mod][UnLocked boot] Telstra JB 4.1.2-9.8.2Q-SD Swap, Xposed...

Update Why are people using v0 & not v3? V3 has less issues & both have the "no visable dialer issue" for those using stock data. The dialer is fuctional but you have no access without a play dialer app. Now is the time to try out those ones with many features above stock, not really a problem. Stock cannot sort out non phone number contacts- just one limitation of the invisible dialer.
I really like this app! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=imoblife.startupmanager.full
Even the free version works well. Some apps show as user when they are not. I have it set to boot so that only 12 apps are running yet when I call for one of the "disabled" apps it works.
Use cwmr only.
Still no Dialer for those coming from stock ...79 or ...94.
Get this! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=intelgeen.rocketdial.pro
It has Many features. The bad review on the info page is a BAD REVIEW!
I am back on this as I still find it superior to even 98.30.1 for many things but Bluetooth in particular- connectivity & audio volume.
I found a path for all unlocked Vzw stock'ers, on 98.18.78 (same as 9.8.1Q-78) OR 98.18.94, to upgrade to a newer kernel and have a built in SD swap.
The first rom you flash is just a simple work around for Vzw users.
A facilitator that alters something in a way that Telstra needs to boot with your data partition.
Don't want to stay on this rom. Restore your former system & boot of any of the previous ones & keep your current data! That is right do not wipe data coming or going!
Those on Mhous33's DST or Deodexed roms may not need the Moparman371's facilitator flash. Testing.... Deodexed & DST works on their own!
Dialer & contacts show in launcher.:good::good::good:
Steps needed to install:
DO NOT WIPE ANY DATA!
Start on the newest ...94 OTA or Factory (or the one before ...78) [...66 alpha tester you are]
Start with your activated & rooted (vzw) stock (unlocked bootloader only)
Make sure you have booted up & done google login & used the stock messaging.
Go CWMR (6.0.1.3 or greater, TWRP will not install the attached rom). (see goodies for flashables)
Backup!
Mount system (& keep data- do not wipe anything)
Flash (install) http://d-h.st/2iE {Mhous33 rom users may skip}
Reboot system.
ReRoot on boot is ok but not needed.
Be sure stock messaging works.
Go cwmr
Wipe Cache & Dalvik
Flash/install the the attached rom.
Reboot. Answer NO at the disable recovery flash until xposed (or is it philz?) is set up & the nag is gone!
Update su binary.
Launch Xposed Installer.
Go Framework>Install/Update>reboot.
Ditto>Modules>Check the ones you want, there should be 4.
Reboot.
Enjoy.
Notes on this Rom:
Most important) DO NOT try to activate this system with Google login as you would a normal Rom.
It must be activated via your currently activated data partition.
Vzw users: You will never be able to do a privacy > factory data reset OR a recovery data wipe on this rom. Doing so & then rebooting will bork your radio partition & result is 3g only, but this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2391641
is the fix if you do.
Rarely): The Xperia launcher will need to be restarted when you see no home shortcuts visible right after a boot up. : Go app drawer> 3dots> launcher settings > swipe, move right to end > restart launcher.
I have found there were some apps causing this.
1) Use the Razr data widget at your own risk when on vzw it can break the radio.
2) Telstra base from ZaYAC-ua http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2246081
3) Updated with: ...94
a) SM_BP_101032.021.32.80P baseband. I did this BB change recently & I am now noticing that ...78p BB is better WiFi connector, SO v3 has this BB now. flash this from recovery to get the Rabbit's original BB back: http://205.196.123.79/enfc9t0cjpog/06j4ygdmdhxlm22/xt907-98.18.78p-radio.zip
b) contacts.apk
4) BusyBox 1.21.1 Stephen (Stericson)
5) Xposed Framework http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
Something in the framework/modules does away with the nagging "disable recovery flash" yet install-recovery.sh is let to do it's init.d duties.

This is a handy tool to maintain the Xposed apps that are sys apps. Use it to update the FW/Modules & put them back in system as they work better there. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.systemappmover&hl=en

Cool thanks for help...

Yea confirm that touch pal works fine, i found an apk online...everything else seems to be mostly working, including bluetooth which is great! subjectively it also seems to be getting better reception too, but its hard to say for sure.
Only problem i can see is that my sdcard and internal storage are swapped around...this is on the phone and also in windows. Not sure if i need to fix this or not...i cant get appextractor to run it cant find the sdcard.

Why are you running appex...? I doubt it works on xt907.
The swap is the point & works great. If want internal sd to hog internal memory just delete the the file 11extsd2internal from init.d. reboot.
Read the sd swap link in the op.

Ah ok i gettit now...i really like this rom, specially the cool swype with arrows keyboard.
Was trying to use appex to get old contacts n sms data etc...but i guess its waste of time trying to make it work?
Also can't get terminal emulator to work. I moved it to user and then upgraded to later version but it stops working whenever i try use it. tried moving it back to system but same prob.
Feel like this rom will either upgrade me from n00b or break my phone...or maybe even break me

Been using touchpal for couple of weeks now it works fine for dialling etc. but i can't figure out how to load previous contacts. I tried using appex to restore contacts from previous backup. it says its working but i don't find any contacts in touchpal after reboot. I have also got all my contacts as vcf files on my sdcard but can't find a way to import them. Also in my text message app when i receive a text and try to save the number it says it can't find the app to save the contact with. After much messing around with permissions etc i finally made touchpal save a contact if i type it in. Also touchpal doesn't seem to be creating any call logs so i can't find any of the previous numbers i dialled. It's all a bit frustrating really.
So i am thinking there must be some way to tell the phone that the contacts app is not the default one it is now touchpal, and perhaps then this will allow me to access android contacts and then import the vcf files? I suspect this is something to do with permissions and/ or android wanting to find a different app to manage contacts. I have been googling a bit but can't find anything useful about how android contacts work and how i can make this all work without having the native contacts app.

No, a) i don't know how to do that and b) i don't have any google stuff set up - i am trying to use the phone without using google's (skynet) services.
I remember importing vcf contacts before using the stock contacts app so i guess what i am really asking is if i can make touchpal do that...and it would be great if i could save numbers from text messages... many thanks as always

Can i upgrade from the original telstra to the v3 version here? And can it be done without losing apps/ messages/ data etc?

[TUTORIAL] Manually port T-Mobile Alliance ROM 5.0.1 to Verizon Dev Edition (12/8/15)

** Got Verizon Note 4 Dev Edition to work with Alliance T-Mobile ROM!! Data, calling, sms, mms work ! I smell a daily driver! I am not a developer, but this manual port taught me a lot. This was a personal project of trial and error, and research that turned into a stable ROM. Thought I'd share how I did it. I do not take credit for this ROM or kernel**
DISCLAIMER: Your warranty is now void. Please be careful make a nandroid of your current Verizon ROM. I am not responsible if you break your phone or lose data on your device! Read this whole OP!
**This is using the BETA version of Alliance ROM for T-Mobile Note 4. Download the Alliance BETA and read the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...-0-1-allianceromn910t-18-themes-huge-t3085560 to get an idea of the features of this ROM. Give lacoursiere18 and hsbadr a thanks and donate to them for making this great ROM and kernel.
Follow these steps one after the other and don't stop**
1. Make sure you are on a OAF Lollipop ROM without xposed installed. I think I used Rick's OAF Lollipop ROM originally. Download the most recent multisystem kernel. I am on BOG modem so I'm pretty sure any Lollipop modem will work with this.
2. On your Verizon Lollipop ROM make copies on your SD card of:
- system/buildprop.xml & cscversion.txt
- system/etc/apns-config.xml
- system/etc/permissions/verizon_net_sip_library.xml & vzwapnlib.xml
- system/lib/libril.so & libsec-ril.so
- system/apps/VzwActivationAgent, vzwapnpermission & **SecSetupWizard2013**
- system/framework/VZWAPNLib.apk
- system/privapp/VZWAPNService & secmms_candy folders
- system/csc folder
4. Reboot into recovery and make a TWRP backup of everything except SD card.
5. While in recovery dirty flash Alliance ROM BETA on top of your lollipop ROM OAF (Wipe everything EXCEPT data, internal storage, and SD). Then flash the most recent multisystem kernel.
6. Once booted up and apps are optimized wait until the screen turns off by itself. Download root browser and delete system/privapp/diagmonagent.apk and system/lib/libdiagmonagent.so because at startup it was sending some kind of diagnostics and thought it was messing with the data drop. Ever since these changes and a reboot data has been stable!
Reboot
7. Using root browser, swap those copied files in the appropriate file location. Change them to the correct permissions (the folders get 0755 and the files 0644, compare with other files and folders that are in place already. Make sure you change the permissions on all folders copied over and their contents. If a permission is incorrect or you leave a file out there can be issues and a restore might be needed.). Let apps optimize. **Longest Step**
Reboot
8. Edit feature.xml in the system/csc folder and add:
<CscFeature_RIL_ForceConnectMMS>true
</CscFeature_RIL_ForceConnectMMS>
Above the two bottom tags:
</FeatureSet>
</SamsungMobileFeature>
This enables auto download mms when data is toggled off !
Reboot
9. Perform a factory reset within the settings. Let phone relax for like 10 mins after it boots. Go through the setup wizard and then reboot.
Reboot into recovery
10. Make an backup in TWRP and you have your own custom ROM
I'm pretty sure this ROM is not compatible with xposed but it is very customizable, smooth, and it comes with a lot of features built in.
**READ ME**
Bugs:
- Silent mode is only available using the toggle. Volume down only goes to vibrate.
**
- Battery section in settings is missing
- No way to remove battery percentage in status bar
(Workaround: Download "Battery Usage Shortcut" from the Playstore to access the battery section and to remove battery percentage)
**
- No way to uninstall 3mint battery mod without messing the systemui up **(see update at the bottom)**
- Now that the mobile network settings are correct the advanced calling option is avaliable but it force closes and messes up your data connection. A reflash of everything will be needed so don't click on it! (I have a feeling a Verizon app is missing)
- My volume titles are not correct (Ringtone, media, notifications, and system.) when I press the volume buttons. (**Workaround download Noyze Volume Panel for free from the developer
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-noyze-volume-panel-replacement-t2875501
Give Tombarr a thanks for developing such a slick and customizable app**)
11/18/15:
- Just started using voicemail for the first time in 6 years. Good thing because today I experienced a glitch that it would not let me hang up the phone after listening to voicemails for some reason, but it didn't do that when I was clearing voicemails. (Hangs up automatically after a certain amount of time) Maybe it happens to new voicemails. Also I'm assuming since the verizon voice mail app isn't installed I get a weird unreadable verizon text when I get a new voicemail.
- One hand mode is not in the settings. Not sure why
Any suggestions or thoughts about these current bugs would be helpful.
I cannot guarantee all Alliance settings will work (stay away from performance), but most does work and it's awesome!
This manual port is now stable and buttery smooth! All basic phone functions work. Let me know if you come across any bugs or issues not related to Alliance settings. I will try to help fix it.
Thanks Stedrocklp for taking the time to try and get this working. Jal3223 thanks for sharing that key porting info!!! Wouldn't be possible without your help! Thanks hsbadr for developing Multisystem kernel ! Thanks lacoursiere18 for creating this ROM !
UPDATE:
To update Alliance settings to the most recent version and remove 3mintbattery mod download the newest T-Mobile Alliance ROM v1.1
1. Use ES File Explorer and click on the Alliance ROM you just downloaded to open the archive.
2.
- Extract system/privapp/SystemUI/SYSTEMUI.apk
- In the system/app folder extract AllianceControl folder (towards the top) and all the loose apps without folders at the bottom to a folder on your sd card.
3. Make a system and data backup in TWRP just in case things go wrong. Reboot system
4. Swap all those files and folders in their appropriate file locations and change the folder permissions to 755 and files to 644. Take this step slow and make sure the old files are renamed to .old or overwritten. If a permission is incorrect or you leave a file out there can be issues and a restore might be needed.
5. In system/app folder delete the old loose Alliancecontrol.apk, and delete 3mintbattery.apk
6. Reboot and enjoy!
This is the final release of this ROM so we are all up to date ! :good:

Wondering if this will work for sprint or any rom

I'm pretty sure it would but you need to figure out the sprint specific apps to make the system happy. And flash your sprint kernel after you dirty flash. The dirty flash skips the setup which makes it possible to boot correctly.

Would you mind sharing the Rick's ROM that you used? I looked at his thread, but the download links are no longer available. Thank you in advance for your help!

Damn thats not good. I do not think I am allowed to share the ROM, as it's not mine. But I do not know how to share it anyways. I would just odin back to 4.4.4. and go through the upgrade process to OAF. Or you can try to de-xpose MoRom after a clean flash. I think there are two things you need to remove one being the xposed installer and the other I don't know the exact name but use root browser, search for xposed in the system folder, delete it, and reboot. No sure if it will messed anything up but I don't think it will. Then dirty flash the alliance beta and continue from there. Let me know how it goes!

Thank you for your response. I ODIN'd back to OAF and went through the steps in your tutorial. My phone booted up and I then proceeded to replace the files/folders and set permissions. I thought I was careful, but once I tried to reboot, the phone would not come back up.
Is there a way to make the changes (file permissions and replacing them in the ROM) on a PC?
Is there a way to share your edited files so that we could simply paste them into the ROM?
Just thought I would ask. Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Damn thats a bummer. Even if I shared the files you would still need to change the permissions. I think it is possible unzip a verizon ROM and unzip Alliance rom and replace the files and then zip it back up on the computer and then dirty flash that but everytime I zip it back up it never flashes. It seems that when I zip it back up it adds an extra folder that makes it unflashable but haven't taken the time to figure out how to make it work. Try starting over and getting the ROM to boot then make a nandroid of that so you have something to restore. This is what I did when I was trying to get everything working. Next time try not adding the camera files and .jar file and add them after a reboot. Let me know how it goes.

Added the setup as one of the files to copy over so a factory reset can be performed to make sure you're starting with a fresh system. This is the first day I did this and I had to pull the battery twice due to freezes after I factory reset. I didn't let the phone sit and let it settle. I would recommend you let it sit and relax for like 10 mins. I have not had any lock ups since this morning. Lemmi know how it goes!

After the factory reset the ROM is flying. As for the battery I cannot say yet but I know I did not have the best battery life on this ROM before. It did get me through the day so I was happy about that. I calibrated the battery but that is about it. If any devs knows any battery optimizations that can be made to the system without xposed please share!

I heard from a user that Xposed works on this ROM. I personally do not use it though. As for battery life I've noticed better results after I disabled automatic check for updates in the settings. Settings > About device > Software Updates and uncheck auto check for updates. This ROM for some reason does not have the audio issues that I experienced on MoROMs ROM. I am happy about that. Now that we finally have the 5.1.1. update I am going to try and port a ROM that looks good. If anybody wants to give this a stab with me that would be great to test multiple ROMs from different carriers and see which one gives us the best results. Thanks

Got something amazing in the works!

Nandroid backup
Can someone send me a nandroid backup of this I'm worried about messing up my phone up

Is there a way to install this rom in the same manner as the kyobi note 5 port? I'm running that now, but would like to try this one out. I've tried a few times but just can't seem to get this one up and running.
Thanks in advance and have a blessed day!

It's not that simple. A data fix would need to be made and that is out of the scope of my knowledge. But when I have some free time, possibly this weekend, I can attempt to come up with something for you to try.

Anyone with a Developer addition phone willing to help us none developers get root/unlocked bootloader? New exploit found but we need an .aboot from a developer phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note...ition-t3346422

Since I am currently on BPA1 5.1.1 running the Kyubi ported ROM and this is a 5.0.1 ROM, will I have to do downgrade my device or anything or will I be good to go to dirty flash? Thanks in advance.

I don't recommend dirty flashing from Kyubi. You should try clean flashing MoRom then copying those files from the system. Then dirty flash Alliance, then multisystem kernel:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...opment/kernel-multiystem-kernel-v1-0-t3105603
And just follow the OP instructions.

Yeah ,I am trying to pull the files I need from my stock ROM backup that I just freshly installed on my device. I stumbled upon a forum here today called Guides There seems to be ALOT of usefull stuff in here about Porting and Building ROM's. I don't know if you have ever come across it or not.

[ROM][WIP] AdvancedStock for HTC 626s (MetroPCS/Cricket)

Wiki with more information about this ROM: http://www.urgero.org/AdvancedStock626
CRICKET USERS:
This ROM works for Cricket Variant phones now.
APN's for Cricket are not enabled in this ROM yet, so follow these instructions to setup the APN's for data & MMS.
Play Store might crash some times, or on first boot, clear the play stores and google service cache in settings
This ROM does not, and will not have Crickets carrier apks.
Take caution using this ROM, I do not have cricket, I have MetroPCS so I cannot test this ROM on Cricket devices.
This ROM for ALL cricket users will require the boot.img linked in the downloads below to get WiFi working properly until further notice.
Instructions for install are the same for MetroPCS AND Cricket users.
Enjoy!
****Version 5 now has some CM12 applications, please enjoy them, I also made slight changes to the libs folder, su.d folder, and added new libs to prep for the CM12 Hybrid rom
Download Links:
THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP, YOU MUST RESTORE IT FROM TWRP RECOVERY!!!!
Debloated and Rooted System Image(TWRP)(Ver. 5):http://www.mediafire.com/download/k7zfvdf6efr74ni/AdvancedStock626_V5.zip****IF UPDATING FROM A PREVIOUS VERSION YOU MUST CLEAR CACHE/DALVIK CACHE!!!!***
My Kernel backed up from TWRP: https://www.mediafire.com/?z1697u7dtpfwow1(ONLY DOWNLOAD IF YOU HAVE WIFI ISSUES AND MADE A PROPER BACKUP BEFORE HAND!!!!!!!)
Also: you will need 7-zip to unpack this file: http://www.7-zip.org/
For those who have been asking for this: MetroPCS Device Unlock App (Took it off a display model for ya guys )(NOTE: Might need to be installed as a system app! Read the bottom of this post for more info!) (NOTE2: It might need some libs files to install properly, I am working on getting those too.)
****WARNINGS****
If you upgraded your phone past 1.06.1550.7 this firmware will BREAK WiFi!!!!
You always run the risk of bricking a device when using non-oem firmware.
Although I have tested this extensively (And currently using it as my Daily Driver) expect bugs since some important HTC have been removed.
Your kernel version MUST be at 3.10.49-perf-g1363ba7 (Only kernel that has been reported to work properly on this device with THIS firmware so far.)
The RUU in case something goes wrong: http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_A32E_UL_L51_DESIRE_SENSE70_MetroPCS_US_1.23.1550.3.exe
THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP, YOU MUST RESTORE IT FROM TWRP RECOVERY!!!!
How to Restore The New System Image:
If upgrading from a previous version, please be sure to Wipe Cache/Dalvik Cache before rebooting to make sure new system apps, and tweaks are properly used.
Download the system image from the link above
Extract the zip file to your external SD Card: (Example: Phone:\Ext_sd\TWRP\backups\)
Reboot into download mode (Vol Down + Pwr)
Select "Reboot into bootloader"
Select "Reboot into Recovery"
Make sure System Read only is not enabled in Mount settings.
Select "Restore" -> Select the Folder you just put on your external SD Card
Wait for a few minutes.
After that is done, go back to the recovery home
Then select "Wipe"
Select "Data", "Cache", and "Dalvick Cache", and "Internal Storage" ONLY (
IF UPDATING FROM A PREVIOUS VERSION YOU MUST CLEAR CACHE/DALVIK CACHE!!!!)
Slide to wipe.
Then reboot.
Follow android setup as normal
Profit.
Some notes about this Custom Stock ROM:
I could not remove everything because the device itself is using HTC's Framework so some apps had to stay
HTC Launcher is removed, giving up 100MB+ of space.
Some HTC Apps have been removed
New Launcher put in (CM Launcher)(NOT TREBUCHET FROM CM12)
Lots of google apps removed
HTC Keyboard stayed because it was the only keyboard I found that will be active natively out of the box on this ROM (Dont know why)
AdBlocker added
Rooted with SuperSU from Chainfire
about 3.6GB of free space BEFORE system does app updates, and about 2.7GB free AFTER the updates. so still pretty good amount of space left on the phone after.
Super smooth bootup time (About 30 sec or less for me.)
THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP, YOU MUST RESTORE IT FROM TWRP RECOVERY!!!!
Solving misc issues with the ROM:
You can attempt to flash the boot.img I have linked above to resolve the wifi BUT MAKE A FRICKING BACKUP FIRST BEFORE YOU DO THAT!!!!
APN Fix (MMS/LTE/TETHER): https://www.mediafire.com/?5b9q589337n8gaq This file needs to be restored with APN Backup&Restore. To do this you need to convert APN Backup & Restore into a system app then restore the XML file you downloaded.
Installing the Device Unlock app: Copy the apk to /system/priv-app/DeviceUnlock. If that folder does not exist, feel free to make it and put the APK there.
Enjoy my work? Please donate to me please. Every dollar helps out a bunch. Thank you!

Freakin sweet bro !!
I hope this may work with the T-Mobile 626s to right?.. Same chitt..

In theory it should, but to my understanding the TMO variant and the MetroPCS variant run different kernels, but if you have a working backup then trying can't hurt!
If you can give me the hardware specs and a copy of your system partition then I can see if they would be compatible.

Awesome, if you need any help or even a tester, I'd be glad to help out

if you need a tester let me know.

I think I will need a couple testers, I am planning on releasing a beta system.img (For fastboot: fastboot flash system system.img)
Should be easy, this system.img will just overwrite your current system image. You will need to have an unlocked bootloader for fastboot flash to work properly and you will need to know any tweaks that have been made will be overwritten. I will work on getting a flashable zip ASAP.

Would be happy to test and provide results

my bootloader is unlocked and it would be s-off but when i purchased the key from sunshine the program wasn't working with the metropcs firmware even tho it said it was compatible. just let me know when u get the flash-able files.

Can't wait to try or test I'm game

I am almost done compiling a list of files that can be removed,then I will be removing the files from a base system.img file. After that I will be *hopefully* resizing the default partition table on the phone to give us the maximum amount of space possible for this device.

thats good. my phone is already almost maxed out of space and most of my apps are on my sd card already. i have like 7.35gb used of the 8.00gb the phone has because of all the stock apps that keep getting updated.

all these people shouting "I'll test" are obnoxious.. I'm just saying.
its like a hot chick asking you if you wanna stick it in her butt.. uhhhh , all the time..

I do not know enough coding to to get CM12 running on this phone, but I do known enough to make a custom stock ROM with some tweaks for battery, performance, and the like.

I am a little behind schedule because of work so the ROM release will be mid next week.
I can certainly attempt, but if someone with experience could not do it, chances are I will not be able to do it.
Plus Xposed is still very buggy for Lollipop ROMS (Ours is 5.1)

Fwiw, xposed ran totally fine on my old s2 on all of the lollipop roms (5.0 and 5.1) that I installed. Don't let potential bugs discourage you. Thanks for all of your efforts. Best of luck!
