This Is Very Important!!! If You Are On BOE1 BOG5 Or BOK3 Bootloaders Do Not Flash Any Firmware Zips Found Here Or In My Other Threads Or Other Threads They May Have Older Bootloaders In Them And They Will Brick Your Phone!!!!! Only Flash The Ones That Specifically Say They Are For BOE1 Or Later Bootloaders!!!

Instructions:
BE PATIENT!!! The Rom Will Take 10 Min Or More To Boot The First Time! And Even Longer If You Do A Dalvik Or Cache Wipe Once Rom Is Installed!!!
1. put rom on internal or external sd card

Known Bugs
VZWAPNService.apk causes My Verizon to FC so I renamed it to VZWAPNService.apk.bak I left it because you may need to rename it back to VZWAPNService.apk to get premium VVM setup then you should be able to rename back to VZWAPNService.apk.bak so My Verizon will work

Here is my dark it up theme for BOC4 Rom I kept it simple to minimize the black on black There is no framework modifications. I also used the layers overlay theme. Just use the layers manager and goto the Theme_Layers folder on the Internal Sd card and Apply a theme layer. Only one layer can be applied per apk. for example you can only use one layer theme for SecSettings. Then you can use one Layer theme for SystemUI and then for SecContacts and keyboard etc. ZIp also fixes SD Card write and Battery cover pop ups

Just finished downloading! Quick question, if I'm already running your stock Verizon B0A8 ROM, do I need to re-flash this version of the ROM or can I just flash the firmware and kernel update through Odin? Thanks!

Meaning the OC4 ROM you just uploaded. Does the new ROM have to be flashed or can I stay on your previous OA8 ROM and flash just the new OC4 kernel and firmware. I will follow the steps in your OP, just figured I'd ask. Others may have this question as well. Thanks again.

Well you can stay on BOA8 rom the BOC4 firmware will not benefit you except the modem might give you some benefits but thats it.

runs great and battery life seems to be killer compared to the 4.4.4. rom i was just on. Wakelock detector shows such a significantly smaller percentage of the phone being held awake its amazing, like 85% on 4.4.4 to 12% on this. TOP WORK!!!!!

alot of the first lollipop builds had battery life complaints so they or you must have tweaked it quite a bit
