This is something new. Better performance and good battery life, more stable. Give it a try , it costs u nothing. Frameworks and UI problems were solved. Rom size is reduced, there is no aroma. This is single zip version, everything included.
Based on Jelly Bean 4.1.2.
Please consider a small donation if you like this ROM, considering my hardwork.. :)

#.....INFO/TIP/For better BATTERY....#

## Do not use any task killers Android analyse the use of apps by u and keeps them in RAM so that the next time you open, it loads faster. Task killers clears them and slows down by preventing android from taking app log.
##Screen drains the battery more.Set brightness to minimum.Untick Auto-Brightness
##Use some battery calibration app to find,which app drains battery more.

~~Enable stamina mode,use a Static Wallpaper and not a Live Wallpaper.
~~Set sleep time less than 1 minute (30 seconds recommended) and disable autorotate as it uses G-Sensor.
~~Use only those widgets that donot refresh everytime.
~~Auto-Sync also consumes battery by constantly checking data. Turn it off.
~~Calibrate battery using apps.

FYI

For battery use smartassv2,interactivex
For performance use lionheart,hotplugx
For balance,use wheatley,wheatleyplus,pegasusq.

You can play with govnrs n I/Os, no prob n find out which one suits your device better.:fingers-crossed:
I recommend wheatleyplus n sio combo. Set CPU freq to 1.1Ghz so that it will complete tasks quicker and go to deep sleep mode.

Just flashed this ROM and looks good so far. Few issues observed:-
1. Some of the application while updating from Play Store get stuck at 66%
2. New applications while updating from Play Store get stuck at 66%
3. The App drawer response is slow...sometime we need to touch twice.
4. After flashing; can you explain what all changes needs to be done for better performance and batter?

Sorry... Can't update the binary file of SuperSu... Where am I wrong?
P.S. It seems the reason is a conflict between SU and BusyBoxPro that I tried to install above integrated BB.

All apps are opening too slow. The dialer and contact is too.
No bro, no problem with performance. Try to change governr, try wheatlyplus/sio or pegasusq/row

emoji doesnt work
No problem with zip file. Emojis are working as it should. Did you modify any file, lib files/ try to change keyboard or anything?? Apps included in rom zip works perfect. No probs with them :rolleyes: :cowboy: :good:
Cheers
