Good news, Gargaros gave me a new link for PA4.6.zip, it now includes the fix for Play Services.
I've updated the first post with the new link.
For us who have already installed the rom, we have to download PA4.6.zip again (I9070P.zip too if you have an I9070P) and install it without Wipe data.

Yeah, that would better! I had to create an account on Androidiani (Gargaros' forum) in order to contact him.
By the way, he doesn't have any Lollipop or Marshmallow roms.

I installed the PA4.6.zip. It's realy a very good rom. Maybe the best. Thank you.
I had a problem with the app of the clock. I uninstalled it and I reinstalled it from google play. It seems to be ok.
The "recent apps" does not work so fluency.
I can not transfer the apps from the internal space of tel to the "sd"(It is about 4 gb free space). I tried it with the link2sd and app2sd. How can I make it?

Also sometimes in the calls, I can not hear my interlocutor and he does not even hear me. I need to restart the phone to solve the problem.

Anyway I suggest this rom to everybody. It is ligth, fast and stable.

Please Help...

I am UNABLE TO FLASH ANY ROM....

Tried many before trying this one, the CWM Recovery always shows "E: can't mount /sdcard/"

FED UP WITH ALL THIS....
I was able to install previously, but then I switched back to official one. And now, since the official one has again started to lag so much, I want to move to any other custom ROM... Which this error is not allowing me...

PLEASE HELP... I AM STUCK IN NOWHERE... FLASHED OFFICIAL ROM 4 TIMES SO AS TO START AFRESH... NO SUCCESS... ALL FILES CORRECT (NO CORRUPT FILE)... ROOTED...

Hello everybody, I've red the posts and this rom looks promising!
I have just two quick questions that I'd like to ask before going to flash this rom:
-Does it have "Radio FM" app installed?
-If I want to go back to "Leggera" rom, con I do it without problems?

Thanks!

Thank you Cassiuss, I flashed it and I have to say it's working great!! :)
Do you know any way to enable the light of the keys as a notification led?
Thanks,
Francesco

I followed the exact steps...
The main area of problem is WHEN I MOVE TO THE OPTION "CHOOSE ZIP FROM SDCARD"
Every time when I select this option, I get an error "E: can't mount /sdcard/"

Its not just for this ROM only... Its for every other ROM out there.... I have tried the SlimKat one... Carbon... CyanogenMod... All...
None of them gets installed... It only pops the same error "E: can't mount /sdcard/"

I have even tried to format the sdcard with different file systems, but no luck.

I just need a one-for-all solution because the problem lies with the error "E: can't mount /sdcard/" only...

PS: I had installed custom ROMs in the past, but reverted back to official one after some time. All the ROMs are working, and not corrupted.

Firstly go to the recovery and mount sdcard
And than install the ROM
Try flashing Laggera ROM from temporary recovery(it should work cause its stock based and debloted)

If your still unable to install it from temporary recovery than you can try CoCore kernel(it is for stock ROMs)
Flash it via dd method or use ukf tool app

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2140597

Than reboot to recovery and try to install this ROM or Laggera
And remember for sdcard it should be only extf4 file system do not use any other file system
Report here if that also din workout:fingers-crossed:

But I was able to install the ROM without any issue when I did it a few months ago...

And mount sd card from where??
mounts and storage -> mount/sdcard

I did that too... No results... Still the same error...

I am sorry, but I am a kind of noob into all this technicalities... All I know is how to flash a rom and use the recovery...

About the sdcard file system, I read somewhere that this problem of "E: can't mount/sdcard" arises when the file system is extf4, and one should format it with FAT32 or NTFS... So I did the same... Should I try with extf4 now?

Oh, that's unfortunate. Well, thank you anyway! Maybe I'll try NoLED app.
Anyhow, I'm very happy with this rom, it's super fast and stable!
Yeah, Gargaros did a pretty good job.

Maybe your microSD is corrupted.
Use this tool to format your microSD correctly: https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/index.html
Format with FAT32.
If this doesn't work, try with a different microSD.

My microsd card is working well, as I am presently using it with official JB ROM. I have tried with another one too. But the same thing happens.

I formatted with FAT32 as well as NTFS... Nothing works.

I suggest you to try to format it with the tool I've linked to you, I had your same problem and solved it this way.

    Fix for screen tearing

    Any way to fix screen tearing in this rom? I tried using the app "Pimp My Rom" to force V-Sync on, but it didn't work.

    Great job with removing the wakelock by the way, all the other CM11 roms I tried just would't let my phone get any deep sleep.

    I'm not the modder of this rom nor a developer, so I don't know how to force vsync. If you really need it I suggest you to install Epirex's CyanogenMod 11, I think that's the only KitKat rom without tearing.

    For fix screen tearing is necessary set the mcde frequency to 49920000 (Fortunately mk kernel has this change) also need apply the STE patch for frameworks/native

    Of course all this will serve if you are a developer, for other users, I take the time of build the libui blob with necessary patches
    you just have flash from CWM or TWRP and reboot to system, the screen tearing should disappear completely

    PD: This fix working in KitKat ROM's only!
