And that sounds incredible :) Screenshots would be nice though ;)
It has been a week or so without any new ROMs so its time to check this out :D Thanks @Furrydaus
Take a good look at the text at the BUILDS section and you'll understand why I do not have screenshots. :crying:
and anyways, it'll probably look the same as other CM11s ROMs

With universal you mean it is for LBL and UBL? Why? XDDD
To make it seem cool and to try and make it a standard across all ROMs that support UBL and LBL devices. Just trying to change the way we look at ROM compatibility rather than having newbies spewing "IS THIS FOR LBL? :(" or "WHY DOES THE THREAD NOT HAVE ANY SAYING OF LBL? IS THERE LBL????".

Amazing piece of work bro. The rom is blazingly fast and smooth, no hiccups whatsoever. It just cant get any better. The only thing that is annoying me is that the status bar and navbar dont disappear when in lockscreen....they just stay there... Is there any way i can get back the fullscreen lock?
Other then that nothing to complain about
And a big bigg thanxx and keep up this great work :)

If it is like mrsteve555 rom u must install williams kernel based on stock
The rom is actually very mixed up in terms of its base. Its a mix of cm, mrsteve, aosp and a couple of other different sources so it might be difficult to determine. You guys could try but im not going to be responsible for any device failures. :(
If you have any news of whichever kernels work, then do inform us on this thread! :)

Ill see if i can force immersive mode on that app in a future delta (ota) update. I just need more stuff to fix and add before pushing an ota update. I dont want too many of them cluttering the op

If the ROM works with locked bootloader, it works with the stock kernel. If it works with the stock kernel, then it will work with Sony stock version of Williams kernel ;)

with 2 applications Photo Gallery

The ROM is great, but I noticed that it came with 2 applications Photo Gallery. It would be a BUG?
I used his previous Revolution 8, so I updated to the new!
Sorry my english ...
