OK, I understand. You changed your phone? Finished the Nexus 4? You also had the OnePlus one and Nexus 5? Since the Galaxy S, I changed my phone a single time... for the Galaxy S4, I'm under CM12.1 (5.1.1). I shall update it 1x/ week. I had the dualboot before but I stopped it... too often any updates!:p I'm glad with this phone, it works fine. Actually, I works more on the theme for Theme Engine.
