Important tip: If you want to restore a Nandroid Backup of a none Magisk-Version (Gratitude 4.1, Gratitude 5 Classic Edition) - you must do following steps before:
be sure to uninstall phh Superuser first - flash unsu.zip (Download: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=63615067 )and directly after flash Magisk-uninstall.zip (Download: http://tiny.cc/latestuninstaller)
If you have done this two steps you can restore a Nandroid Backup of another Rom. If you dont do this steps, the restoring will not be without faults.

Download TWRP: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862681510

Installation:

Clean Installation with Fullwipe is recommended (Backup your data, boot to TWRP, go to Wipe /Advanced Wipe and format Dalvik/ART Cache, Cache, System and Data - NOT the Internal Memory)
Dirty Flash is possible:
backup your converted System-Apps first (System will be formated during flashing) and wipe immediately after installation BEFORE Reboot Dalvik and Cache (TWRP left next to Reboot-Button)
The Installation needs about 2 Minutes, the Reboot needs about 10 Minutes (clean install) and with dirty flashing the Reboot needs about 15 Minutes

To switch of chinese Letters - go to K-Settings, in there to Notification Settings/Show statusbar lunar - disable it. After to Lockscreen und desktop settings/Lunar calender + Desktop wheather lunar - disable it.

Push-Notifications

The Push-Notifications are working for sms, mms, email.... But for WhatsApp, Viber, Skype and other Chat/Net-Call Apps the push-notifications work only perfectly if you convert them into a system app. You can easily do this with Link2SD. Link2SD give you a list of all Apps - for example "WhatsApp" - just press long on it and you get a menue - use: convert to system-app. Then reboot your Phone. After you have to authentication WhatsApp again - so make a Google-Drive Backup of the Chat-History before doing this.

Hello, I am not sure, but I think it should work on UL10. If you want to try it, make with TWRP a complete Backup of your System, Data, Boot, Recovery...if it dont work you can restore your working Rom. Please post if Gratitude is compatible with UL10 modell

[Tecalote]

im using just stock music player, the problem occurs for example, when i stop listening music, i unplug earphones, then few mins later i wanna to listen something again, and then none of those two works (viper/atmos), sometimes when i manually quit all apps and re-launch them, it help, but very rarely (im not sure why is this happening)

EDIT:
Well, something interesting happened, this may help you:
Using stock music player, playing some music, trying switch on/off atmos and viper, nothing worked, so i tried disable DTS in music player, atmos and viper, then switch to next song, and tried to enable atmos, and it worked, then i could enable DTS (didn tried viper :/ ) so i imediately went to PC to inform you, while i was writing, music was paused, now i tried if it still works, and it doesnt DTS is working everytime tho... hope it will help somehow

Thank you for the information and testing , as soon I have time, I will check too.
Try to deactivate in Phonemanager Smart Tune Up (Settings-Symbol) Open System Cleaning in this App , go to the settings of it, and deactivate everything in it.

well, i did everything as you mentioned, but nothing changed, so i decided to try another music player, it looks like in PowerAmp everything works fine, looks like stock player somehow confict with other equalizers, will be testing and keep you updated

 

[Tecalote]

Thanks! This would be good, cause it would be easy to make an updated Stock Player

Hello
Dear friend, this ROM is installed on the GRA-UL10 model?
My phone's bootloader is unlocked، TWRP Recovery
Rom B370،EMUI 4.0.1

it works very well on UL10. Just install with MM Rom stock and follow the 1st post instrutions. Excellent ROM, love all the advanced settings. Keep it up.
Just one thing. Does normal Xposed doesn't work? Cause I install the arm64 xposed 86.1 and it doesn't boot, and warm a lot. Which xposed can we install with this ROM?
Cheers

Please don't flash Xposed - I wrote in the OP -
Go to Settings K-Settings Xposed Framework - Install Confirm - Wanams Xposed Framework 86.1 is included and will correctly installed automatically.
The Reboot needs maybe 15-20 min.
You don't need Alpha-Installer, its also included.

Miss that. Thank you very much. This ROM is incredible stable, and very different from Stock. Will install again from the start and follow the instrutions in first post.

just to tell that say uninstall instead of install on xposed in ksettings, but if you confirm then install the xposed framework right. Thanks for this wonderful work.

Hello Sir, at the moment there is no Dolby compatible Huawei Musicplayer yet for this Rom - but as you said, Poweramp works - and I tested Google Play Music. This works even great together with the Dolby Feature.
Of course, I try to find also a solution for Huawei Musicplayer.
