Features

-Android Lollipop 5.1.1 OUT NOW!
-There are not many features in 5.1.1 yet because the developers are still working on it, so don't be disappointed if the feature you want is not implemented yet.

Previous features (which will be implemented soon by the Vanir team I believe):
-Freaking insane speed
-Custom toolchains, -O3, OptiPNG, bionic, krait, and dalvik performance commits, -fstrict-aliasing, custom CFLAGS, and MORE!

-Tablet statusbar split
-Regular and Inverted Themes
-Active Notification Tiles

-Hover mode
-Heads Up
-Double Tap status bar to sleep
-Quick Camera
-Interface Mods
-LED Notification Control
-Compiled with GCC 4.9
-Battery saving mode
-Immersive mode
-etc (There are so many features in it I can't possibly list them all, so try and experience it for yourself!).

Install instructions:

1. Download the ROM (obviously) and place it in your SD Card
2. (Optional if you already did this) Flash the kernel in the zip with fastboot flash boot boot.img. This is just to get CWM recovery.
3. Boot into recovery mode.
4. Wipe data (or cache and dalvik cache if coming from an older version)
5. Flash the ROM.
6. Flash GAPPS
7. Reboot, and done!

Hmm. Root works fine for me. Take a look at settings/Superuser. Attached is a screenshot of Titanium Backup on Vanir. Maybe try flashing the Superuser binary?

I will take a look into the battery drain issue.

Did you do a complete wipe before the install?

Screenshots uploaded. There aren't many UI customizations now, as they are being slowly added back to Kitkat. One main feature of the ROM is its speed and smoothness, which can't be shown in screenshots. You have to flash it to feel its power.

OK, I added a new version of the ROM, and the SuperSU problem and battery drain should be fixed.

Download here.

Remember to wipe data before flsahing this, or else there may be problems.

I have been testing it for a day, and I'm amazed at the lagfree-ness of the ROM. Just speeding through tasks like they're nothing. There is no stuttering of animations too when flipping through tabs and pages, or going to the recent apps menu. Try it.

Here are the battery stats: 1 day without charging, 2.5 hours of screen time (mostly YouTube videos and a bit of gaming), auto-brightness, and still 40% left!

Gaaps are too big

Please explain

Can we flash 4.4.2 GAAPS from other rom.Because provided in link are almost 200 MB.

I want only google account sync and G+ and gmail.

Kind assistance would be highly appriciate.

Yes, you can use whichever GAPPS you want as long as it is for android 4.4.2. The GAPPS provided is just for people who don't know where to download it.

Could I request a flashable zip of the kernel for step 2. The reason being my laptop is messed up on drivers as I have a Samsung,Nexus and Sony phone and I can't install the fastboot drivers for any apparent reason. I already have CWM on this phone.

Or would creating one myself work?
To my understanding I would need to put
META-INF folder with the certs and updater-binary and a customized updater-script to mount filesystems and extract the kernel
lib/modules folder
boot.img

After update, Rom works fine so far! It is fast and seems stable.
The only "bug" that I found is that the quick toggle symbol for mobile data is not centered, plus the user switcher toggle stays blank, no picture is shown


Pitty that ART is not functional :/

BTW: I love the boot logo


Edit: battery life is brilliant

Seems fine to me though, try restarting? See if your picture is set in the People app (or rather, use the People app to set your picture).

Maybe it's just one of those bugs.
