Yes, it's all fine. Don't ask me why that's so, I had to do a clean build and after that it was 70mb smaller and I don't know why, but for me it's working fine.
Interesting new things going on,
Did a 4ext full wipe and format of all but SD Card, same partitions as I have been using on this build.
I get "Android is Upgrading" on first boot like Dalvik is being moved.

Got Mounts2SD installed and all was looking good but started to get storage low errors after installing about half of my apps.

Back to the white theme in settings as well.

Just trying a new build.

Ok, seems that my SD-EXT partition is getting corrupted, so wipe and test of the SD card is now ongoing.
Hope it was a one off.

^same problem. started to get storage low errors after installing about half of my apps.
check in 4ext if the SD-EXT partition is still in tact, as in no errors.
I have been moving the Dalvic until this build and this time had to move the data instead.
But this was only after doing a complete clean including resetting the partitions on the sd card.

I think the script that runs on first boot (android is upgrading) is what is interfering with mounts2sd, would be interesting to know what it is and what it acctually does.

Just moving the apps, app data and libs seems to be ok, the data remaining in the /data area (ARM - as dalvic is not used in LP) is now at 1.1gb 200mb left, hope it does not grow.
If i get time shall try and experiment with moving data areas but not for couple of days.

yeah. SD-Ext is ok. Thinking of dirty flashing the new build over its previous build. So that m2sd won't be touched after the flashing. just an experiment. let's see what I get. I'll update you

Sajito did mention he had to do a clean install in a previous post.
Think my issues were bad luck.

Did both the clean & dirty flash. Also increased the space of SD-Ext. Still showing the notification of storage space running out. only uninstalling M2SD is solving this problem for me.

I notice the USB connection menu is now available but seems to be unresponsive, had to reboot the phone to get the screeshots off it.

issues with data

I have problem with data connection. I can call others but I can't use the internet. There is only an exclamation mark next to the signal strength. I have installed the rom with full wipe.
Should i wait an update for the rom or what?

Are the APN details in the network section that match your Provider

Ok, I am now getting the cannot download from play store as insufficient space.
@Sajito did you in fact see the "android is Upgrading message on first boot? and any idea what it may be.
@asefjamil same question to you and how did you get on.

Does anyone know where the theme chooser is or are we waiting for that?

The "android is upgrading" message is the same you can see after every dirty flash update. Usually that message isn't shown by most roms, but on liquidsmooth they changed it to show that message instead of bootanimation the whole time.
I think that's to prevent people from thinking that it's stuck while booting.

OK, I can see the point of exposing the message, I am getting it on a clean build. Going to try moving the dalvic see if that will help the out of space issue.
Other than the storage issue and pre existing issues everything is good, very fast responses.

Nah. I have tried 3/4 times to move dalvik cache on both kind of flashing. So finally I came to a point where I am only moving my application to SD-Ext. Found no lagging yet. Running good.

oh dear, just moving mine now, if this fails, shall revert to 2015-01-13 build and wait for next version.
update pending

Well, I am blowed it moved this time. I have updated recovery to 4ext latest but no flashing.
I wonder if you have to move it after moving the data first, very interesting and a bit odd.
just trying another reboot to ensure it is all secure.
Well that was a bum idea, low on storage, so now reverting to older build, need the space.

I was also thinking to revert but rather only moving App to sd-ext was better solution for me to keep this white theme :D

Acctually I prefer the latest build, looks wise and performance seemed snappier.

having looked at the M2SD and what it moves when it does a "Dalvic" move there are lots of mounts points moved.
I wonder if one of these is incompattable with the new setup that LS have used.
If i had not run out of space would have stayed with the new build.
@Sajito work is fine.
