FOTATWRP REMOVAL:

People who are using fotatwrp can now use my built in twrp boot.img for Twisted to use this you will need to remove your current fota recovery. Best way i fine is you use a ftf custom stock rom that contains the original fota partition. If anyone needs me to link one let me know. To install latest twrp using boot.img do as follows...
* Boot into fota twrp
* Flash a Custom ftf Stock rom with original fota
* Do not reboot!
* Then wipe Dalvik Cache, System, Cache and Data
* Flash Twised with gapps
* Reboot
* Done!

ok got it about twrp. actually i like the idea of fota-recovery on this device also ... would this rom/kernel work with installed fota-twrp or is removing essential?

@filou76 you can flash using the fotatwrp that you already have. This rom will not overwrite that unless you follow the fotatwrp removal instructions in OP.

The ROM will work with fotatwrp but you will not receive the benefits of the twrp that's in the boot.img has the fota twrp will override it and you'll be stuck on what ever version its on

Is this rom CM based ? Can I use custom kernels (M5 Kernel) with this rom ?

Hello,

Hi, if you are not based on cm, how is the camera working? doe sit have the pinch effect? Like square objetcs appers as curved? (like a reversed fisheye)
And how about the thermal bug?

Thanks

+1, can somebody test the camera and report back?

Also, coming from KK, can I wipe and flash this directly or do I have to be on LP?

Yes you can, but I would recommend following the install instructions in OP and updating firmware.
There is no camera pre-installed in this rom! As most people tend to install there preferred camera app from play store. ( all custom roms for z3/z3c; aosp, cm, slim have the fisheye effect bug atm).

Flash and see how ya like it, it's fast, stable and has layers which is an awesome way to customise your phone.

Cheers

The issue is same across all open source areas ATM, it doesn't matter where its from. I only had my device a few weeks and built a ROM and fixed some common bugs on ROMs for this device. I use my own device tree mixed up with cm/slim that's my own project with Alx31 on this ROM so we will aim to improve it more in time. My project isn't that old and things can only improve in the long run...

Even though i deactivated adaptive brightness, the screen brightness just does whatever it wants. It goes up and down based on i don't even know what the ****.

EDIT: Nevermind, i'm deinstalling it. For my taste it's a little too sluggish.
