Ram management is 10x better on this Rom... A lot more fluid and no lag esp. on keyboard which I used to have very often. - Although i feel that is a lot of room for improvement here. Having 6 apps open leaves 800 megs ram available - ideas to improve this ?

Battery management is also vastly improved.

I would love to see the below improvements:

Double tap to sleep/wake
Wi-fi signal improvements
TWRP - came from a Zuk Z2 which has plenty of Rom and features so constant flashing into recovery is ingrained in me .

Well done to developer!

I have not updated it yet, as I'm afraid of losing root. I check the firmware update zip file and it seems to patch boot.img as well.

I'm on the old firmware (20170927) rooted with your boot.img :)

Yes. No problem. I am running the new base at the moment.

    -Disable in settings/Assist Funtion the White list option to prevent issues with apps and notifications.

    -in settings/language & keyboard you can enter google keyboard settings.
    in advanced settings you can change to different color themes or use your own , or change the long press delay or keypress vibration etc..


    Smoother System
    In Nova Launcher settings got to "look and feel" and set
    the animation and scroll speed to "faster then light"

    But there isn't a recovery installed with this Rom right ?
    No. We don't have twrp or other custom recovery right now.

    But you don't need it in v1.5 you can flash zips direct from my rom. The option will work like a emulator. :D
    Let me surprise you
