Is there a way to port your dark theme to other ROMs? The dark is very cool... and I would like to use it while trying other ROMs. Thanks.

nope, it cant be ported, other roms can use my commits to make it the same if they want... but port wont work

Seem to be having problems with the native email app. Once I get an account added it immediately force closes. Thoughts?

yeah it seem so, ill have a look

This may be wrong, but when i had this running, the sound pack it had included seemed different than that of lollipop? If so, is there a zip of it somewhere? Ended up going back to 4.4.4 at the moment. Need the battery life ATM.

it should be the same as cm12, maybe different defaults.... all files are in the rom zip

Weather unit change

Great build.
How do I change the weather unit to Celsius in the statusbar?

internal storage not showing up

So this is the only lollipop rom i really like so far since it removes carrier provisioning for tethering. And im a tether heavy user. But with the latest update after i flashed it and booted up the rom the internal storage showed up empty. So i thought i had accidently erased my internal storage. But i flashed a different lollipop rom and lo and behold all my internal storage popped back up. It never did get wiped idk what happened. I tried flashing this rom 3 more times with a complete wipe and i get same results no internal storage.

its yet unknown why this happens, solution is in the thread if u search for relink sdcard.
it would be cool if people provide more info on their setup... as it never happened to me yet and i flash like 15 times per week probably.

 

[that_guy_you_know]

I guees 4th times a charm. I tried flashing it again and this time everything worked out just fine. Didn't do anything different didn't redownload the rom...... Weird. Love the rom tho!

 

[darkobas]

just to give u some headsup, @nicholaschum was so kind to start making a very own custom boot anim for this rom! looking forward!

12/24 build signal icon

thanks for this bad-ass rom however i've just clean-flashed the 12/24 build and the signal icon now has an exclamation point which wasn't there on the 12/23 build. is there a setting i need to tweak?
