I suggest that you should go back to E4d with a pit file, then upgrade to FP1 then FP5. This is the best clean install. My phone run as fast as my previous tweak 2.2, pbj kernel etc..but everything is working very smoothly. My signal bar wifi/4g are same as before, no improvement on voice. Auto brightness and battery saver options are working well. My battery is the best to date without any additional apps and using wifi only, I have tested phone sleep time (not using phone that much, only about 1hrs usage), I have 14hrs (1 hrs usage) with 73% leftover at the end of the day. I felt like I have JellyBeen on the charge. I only installed about a dozen absolutely needed apps like phone tracker security app, go launcher ex, ad blocker, root explorer, busybox, foxfi, mybackup,titanium,FBM9(facebook app, fring, appinstaller), super user, original weather widget, go launcher switch (to toggle wifi/4g,flash light, etc..) to start out with. My opinion, yes you should upgrade, but do it with a pit file.
Pure stock FP5 with root and cwm. Everything is working beautifully. My facebook usually slow with tweak 2.2, PbJ kernel, but now it's fast with FP5. The only thing that slow is GPS lock, I replaced the gps.conf file and it locked very fast. I have nothing to complain with this version. I will wait for the new update version of tweak, there is no need to flash the old tweak 2.2.
I'm using FP5 pure stock with go launcher EX (make a big different on user experience) and set effect home page transition to "binary star", I could use my thumb and flip though home page like butter (super fast, even faster than my S3), scrolling is also super fast. The rom itself is better than any custom rom (eclipse or tweak) to date and the battery life is incredible (this comparison based on my phone using tweak 2.2/pbj kernel and FP5 pure rooted stock. Of course Tweak and eclipse were build on FP1, so until they build on FP5, this stock rom is my choice.
Yes they are right, you shouldn't install custom rom on FP5 because they build on FP1. For now, your best bet is you can flash back to EP4D stock with pit file (highly recommended), OTA to FP1, then FP5, then flash cwm with auto reboot uncheck. Once done with cwm don't let your phone boot up, but boot into cwm instead and flash super user. Now you have stock FP5 rooted with CWM,
Wow! With those two things highlighted you almost got me until I saw GPS slow in locking.
You just have to replace the original gps.conf file with a modified one (copy and pasted) that it. You may already have one with tweaked 2.2, if you do save this file to your sd card. After FP5, test out the gps first, if it working too slow then replace it with yours.
You should, cause it does help people with gps lock issue, also better on accuracy. It does no harm but goodness.
I don't deny that, just never did it is all. Maybe I'll look at kvswimsYou should, cause it does help people with gps lock issue, also better on accuracy. It does no harm but goodness.
not sure if you meant FP5 build or FP5 kernel, but FWIW, I (and others) have had FP5 kernel running on Tweaked 2.x. so while I'm not sure if you can install a custom ROM on FP5 kernel, you can install FP5 kernel on a custom ROM.
