Root Info
Flash 'UPDATE-SuperSU.zip' to gain Root-Privileges.​

Installation instructions

Coming from 5.0 or less
--> Format system, data, cache & dalvik cache
--> Install ROM
--> Install Gapps if required
--> Reboot

Coming from previous build
-->Wipe cache
-->Install ROM
-->Reflash Gapps
-->Reboot

Using OTA as update
-->Check for any available updates
-->If you get one, download the update
-->Press 'Flash it'
-->Wipe cache from the prompt
-->Now Grant #SU permissions to OTAUpdater if you haven't earlier
-->OTAUpdater will automatically wipe cache, flash the ROM & then reboot
-->Enjoy the new Update​


IMPORTANT NOTE
You must flash the added #SU.zip. And then from settings, go to superuser and select, install 'OTA Survival'.

In order for the OTAUpdater App. to automatically reboot to TWRP, wipe the selected preference say cache, apply the OTA update and then reboot back to system, you must give OTAUpdater permanent root privileges when you use the 'Flash it' option for the first time.

Please report all the Bugs in the Bugs Section. In this way I can keep track of all the bugs and fix them appropriately.

You must flash the Gapps that I provided. Other Gapps don't have the proper DPI and will cause all kinds of graphical glitches and FCs.


Changelog
Code:
[CENTER][U]06/07/2015[/U]
-->Initial release with android-5.1.1_r4
-->TWRP updated to 2.8.7.0
-->Various code optimizations for stability & speed[/CENTER]

Stock CM Kernel with TWRP-2.8.7.0 in Odin flashable format

I am attaching here the stock cm kernel with twrp-2.8.7.0 in odin flashable format along with the 1Gb-system/4Gb-Data pit file and Odin-3.09. Use this to recover from soft bricks and also the kernel can be used with other lollipop based ROMS. Flash the kernel with odin after installing the ROM of your choice. If you have used this kernel to repair a soft brick, you will have to again reflash the kernel after installing the ROM if you want to continue using this kernel. Happy flashing. :)

LQ can be used with layers...download it from PS...requires root...and plz check the new KernelAuditor(Performance)...Its a super tweaking app.
Is this for real, I mean the layers part.....
Because from what I understand you can only have one of the theming option at a time in a rom and not both.
Will give the ROM a try in a couple of hours, a little busy now.
