More features listed below


INSTRUCTION: HOW TO FLASH:

It's really easy,
If you're not rooted, of course you need to root your device. Keep in mind that rooting your device will void your warranty.

Root with CF-AutoRoot HLTE-HLTEXX for N9005
Install custom recovery, I recommend the latest CWM from Philz
Reboot into recovery and perform wipes
Format /system /data and /cache
Clear /dalvik-cache and cache
Now you're ready to flash
Install zip from SD Card
Follow Aroma Installer Steps
Choose whatever you want to install
Once the installation process is started, it can take from 2 up to 5 minutes
Let the device reboot and it's ready to be used!


IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO ENABLE XPOSED FRAMEWORK ONCE THE PHONE IS READY FOR USE. IT REQUIRES A REBOOT.
ALSO, IF YOU INSTALLED THE S5 CONVERSION DURING THE INSTALLATION, ACTIVATE THE S5 SYSTEMUI THEME ON XPOSED FRAMEWORK TO HAVE FULLY S5 LOOK EXPERIENCE. ALSO THIS REBOOT TO TAKE EFFECT.

Thanks for the rom. Beautiful aroma and everything went well. As with ported s5 apps here are some issues:
S5 browser fc when opening its settings
S5 planner unable to add event from widget
S5mms safe settings fc

Also using the stock ui or s5 ui and s5 xposed framework quick settings mod... the top bar has a different color from the rest of the notification shade. This does not happen with other roms using the s5 xposed module quick settings mod. Maybe some sort of modification with the framework-res

Thanks dev. Will be testing it more

Hey
Did you installed also the S5 conversion in aroma installer?
It modify the framework-res completely.
If not I'll add the flashable zip tomorrow in OTA for everyone.

Also, let me know if you got "com.android.vending has stopped" error.
