I have a question. I read on phonearena.com that the phone I own (sm-s820l), is the same model as the core prime value edition. That being the case, would it be possible that this cyanogenmod would work with it? Sorry if this is a dumb question, I was just curious.

If you want to change the drawer style then I recommend you to use Nova Launcher and if you want to take screenshots long press on power key + volume down button.

Hey @Dreamstar,

I love the ROM!

Are you still working on it?

I have swapped to it to use it full time. I haven't had any issues, besides a bootloop from attempting to install Xposed and an attempt at the patch to android from Lucky Patcher.

I would love to see updates to this rom and on bugs like the video recording (I got past it by using a third party camera app)

Kind regards
James

Hey @Dreamstar we need you to fix all bugs of this rom so we could use it for our everyday life. I've found some connection issues, video recording produces the wrong colour, the camera app fails to open when launching it directly from the lock screen and sometimes doesn't even open when launching it from the app drawer. If you need the logs, contact me. Please kindly accept my request, thanks and keep it up. :good:

Did you do a factory reset after flashing the ROM or did you flashed mods?
Hey @FardeenTGO,

I had to factory wipe to get the ROM to boot. Everything works fine, and the camera only gives trouble with recording and front facing on some flashes.

The device only goes into boot loop when I apply a theme. I thought it might have been from changing the DPI, but I eliminated it by reflashing a few times and changing the DPI and theme on separate flashes.

I am now using the ROM full time, but I can't set a theme.

Regards
James
