***Guys This Is A Port So remember it will have small glitches here and there but all in all should be stable ***​

For starters HOW TO INSTALL a ROM by SAC23

Installing with TWRP (View All Supported Devices>>> Find TWRP for your device):
Philz can be used and I will post instructions for it later https://www.mediafire.com/folder/qc3z1c59s8g03/PHILZ

This assumes that you ALREADY have TWRP Recovery installed on your phone and you know how to use it.
Download the ROM of choice...move it onto the EXT SD CARD.

VERY IMPORTANT>>> Move all music, pics, important data from internal storage to the ext SD card and/or to your pc, etc. because during this process, the internal will be completely erased.

Recommended Method to Flash SACS Custom ROMS using TWRP

1. Boot into TWRP
2. Select Wipe > Advanced Wipe
3. Select Dalvik, System, Data, Internal Storage, and Cache. Swipe to Wipe (do this THREE TIMES)
4. Go back to previous Advanced Wipe screen.
5. Select Format Data, Type YES, Press GO. (do this THREE TIMES)
6. Go back to previous Advanced Wipe screen.
7. Swipe to Factory Reset. (do this THREE TIMES)
8. Go back to MAIN menu and STOP HERE !!!!! READ NEXT STEP CAREFULLY....
   [*]Select REBOOT INTO RECOVERY mode and Swipe to Install Super User. DO NOT REBOOT INTO SYSTEM!
   [*]AFTER THE PHONE REBOOTS INTO RECOVERY:
9. NOW proceed with installing The ROM
10. Select Install Zip, Drill down to Sac23's Rom you want to flash, and Swipe to install.
11. Follow on screen instructions (if there are any).
12. When prompted, REBOOT SYSTEM.

THE FIRST BOOT WILL TAKE A MINIMUM OF 20 MINUTES..... SOME DEVICES EVEN LONGER...
.
.
HAVE PATIENCE
When the Home Screen appears and it is obvious that the install has completed, allow the phone to settle for another 10 minutes BEFORE you begin setting up your personal preferences and accounts.
If everything seems normal, set your phone up and profit.
IF IT WON'T BOOT....(IF YOU HAVE A REMOVABLE BATTERY)...try pulling battery and replacing battery then restart phone and you should see "Android Updating"

After setting up your personal info and you are now ready, the first thing you should always do after flashing any ROM is to go to settings, system updates, and refresh/update your PRL & PROFILE then reboot the phone. Second thing is go to settings, more networks, mobile networks, network mode, and select LTE/CDMA.

here my findings :
- WIFI is not connecting after a full wipe.. not working after a dirty flash.
- The video on the OP shows the toolbox working but the icon is missing?
- On the pulldown under the date all of the text is Chinese
- when music is on , Sound management still have Chinese text on the pulldown notification
some other reports are :
- Calling other N3 sound is like a voice change

confirming all the above ( in case it helps )
also the settings button in pulldown only opens date / time settings ( unless for some reason that is normal for loli? )

Lol its Korean but agree with those issues. I also noticed when I reboot from recovery it gets stuck on the boot animation. Not always but most of the time.

Try tapping to the right a little more. It will open settings.

Edit: Well it was for me until I tried it again lol.

Try turning the wifi off at the top right of the screen. It will skip the setup.
