I am stuck on a bootloop. From morning. None of the key working. Plzzzz help.
Coz i flashed this rom over viper rom without wiping. What to do now?
I am too scared. :(

First, you can hold power and volume up buttons for about 10 seconds to force the phone to turn off.

then you need to go into recovery and wipe system, data, cache, and dalvik cache. Then you can flash this rom. Also make sure you're on the correct firmware (see OP).

Really disappointed this thread died. Absolutely love this ROM. Was looking forward to what the Dev had to offer next.

OP, has support ended for this ROM? You're still active on your "Android Wear" thread, where's the love here?
About to change over to another ROM if support is over.

I really don't know what to say exempt make your own ROM and maybe next time think before you submit.
Y'know...it's fine if a dev wants to stop developing or supporting a rom. It's their free time and they get to decide what they want to do with it. That said, it wouldn't be that difficult to drop a quick post in the thread saying "sorry guys, I'm done" rather than just disappearing without a trace and leaving everyone wondering what's going on. I don't see what's unreasonable about that.

Hah...

Every one wonders why the good devs leave these forums.

No, the unreasonable thing is that you feel you need an explanation.
Any other producer of a good in the world, when they stop producing something do you *expect* a reason why?

This is free. If you donated, feel good you donated. If you feel you've been cheated, don't donate? Again, this is a ridiculous conversation.

Nobody is owed an explanation; it's just really odd when a dev suddenly stops all communication out of nowhere. I've never seen it happen on XDA quite like it has with this rom, and I've been around for a while. I don't expect anything; I just think it would have been a nice thing to do before disappearing. That holds true with anything in life, not just this situation specifically.

Well so much for 1.5 I guess. I hope the dev is okay though. Who knows what happened, but I thank him for his efforts and wish him the best of luck.

With that being said, has anyone found a fix for GPS? I have tried every single firmware out there (DH's, aer0zer0's, SROM) - I just can't get GPS to work. The thing is, it works with other Lollipop ROMS such as DH's GPE and LiquidSmooth - so I wonder if it's even really firmware related? If anyone could chime in I would really appreciate it. This ROM seems to be stable in all aspects that others seem to fall, EXCEPT for GPS, which I absolutely need. Thanks in advance.

This works for me every time

1. Ruu back to sense 4.4.4
Don't bother setting it up, you don't care
2. Get a lock with GPS fix with your settings for location to device only, then verify with maps
3. Install the Rom, don't try to get GPS on first boot. Reboot at least once
4. Location settings back to device only, then use maps, it'll take like 20-30 seconds the first time, but after you should be good to go

Firmware doesn't matter so much as sequence of events

This worked! aer0zer0 to the rescue. The GPS locked and now locks almost instantly.

    Get the ROM from 4ndr01d

    Instructions
    1. make sure you are on the 4.4.4 or 5.0 firmware
    2. wipe data (if coming from ANY other rom)
    3. wipe cache
    4. flash ROM
    5. let phone sit for a few minutes once booted to settle (a lot is done on first boot)

    Keep in mind that the first boot can take up to 10 minutes and may seem to hang on either the Google logo or the Boot Animation. Just give it time, it will boot.
