Another one? Wow! Just tried PAC and your 5.1's have come a long way. Problems already noted. Battery life is phenomenal. Will try this one later. First have to update my pc.

Tried the old rom you had posted, it seems to work well.. Would love to flash the updated version :)
BTW, is there an overclocked kernel for lollipop?

Which is better?

I still am in love with Candy5 but yet liquidsmooth is also good. Is this Rom more stable? What I know is that you can overclock your device using liquidsmooth rom as it uses uber kernel. Ill just wait till the rom becomes official. Or until it is popular :)

You sure about the "uber" kernel?

Take another look my friend. There is no "uber" in the description (OP).
:eek:

EDIT: -1 for grading a Recognized Contributor, noob~!

No need to come here grading my work or my thread! Nobody is making you flash this or any other ROM. Next time please try to be helpful and not so judging please? Uber is NOT going to fix anything with this device until we have repartitioned it with at least 6GB for the data. You could help there if you'd like?

To clarify overclocking was mentioned in the description however its not present in the rom, and there are a few people throwing around "uber kernel" and associating it with this rom, it is also not present. Just from the description clarification and debate settlement I think my post was warranted, maybe too light hearted for Your taste I didn't mean offence to you or the op, but hell there was a bunch of wild speculation And a misprint am I not allowed to have a little fun?
Ps Only a noob would flame out NOOB without further investigation of the guy he was flaming

my apologies, I didn't mean your rom specifically just the general concept of lollipop roms on i717. what would a 6gb part do for the device that would help it's operation Esp in context w/ a custom kernel? I haven't fully tested the rom but I think maybe the primary issue for me on 4.4 and up is the poor frame rate, I just think the adreno 220 just can't handle it w/o a little help. are you saying that the other performance issues associated with these roms is related to the data partition size? Please explain how and I may help

Flashed this Sunday morning and it's running well for me. Came from your latest PAC ROM and can say the performance seems a bit better with this one. And seems pretty solid stability wise.

Misprint? Not on behalf of the OP...

And what more investigation do I need than you coming out of nowhere, posting incorrect information, dropping "grades" on the OP (really?), and having some "fun" in a Development thread?

I think that's the first time I've ever used the term "noob" other than to describe myself back when I had a handful of posts like you. But I take it back- it has nothing to do with being a noob. It's just plain ignorant and disrespectful, and having been around as long as you have, you should really know better...

The data partition is only 2GB and it's getting filled up too quickly. Gapps alone can fill it actually but if we had more space, that would help the device run better. I'm trying to flash a pit file that I've edited to give up 6GB of data partition. Odin will not flash it for me so that's what I was mentioning you could help with if you wanted. Also the CPU isn't going to handle LP as we would like it to but there isn't much we can do about that.

Frequent freezes followed by auto reboot.

Hello,

I flashed LS V4 for my Note i717 with minimalist gapps using TWRP. I really enjoy it so far and would like to see if you can help with an issue.

I am fairly proficient with flashing mods so I got through that process fine. I use this phone as my Uber driver phone so have barely anything installed on it. (Uber partner app, Google maps, mileage log, Gmail, one cloud, and system maintenance apps like no bloat and xbooster set to multitasking) When I am doing something as simple as going through the settings, it will freeze, then reboot. Normally it wouldn't bother me, but if this happens while I am driving for Uber, I can lose a fare, so I'd like to get it figured out.

I haven't changed any of the default settings in the performance section, because although I have a basic understanding, I don't know enough to go messing with those. I do really enjoy this mod and having lollipop on the device, so I'd like to figure out these kinks. Any assistance is appreciated and I am somewhat noobish on this so please keep the responses with detailed info and layman terms.

Everything works except the video camera for me! Has anyone else had this problem or know of a fix? I seem to have this problem with all the 5.1 ROM's so any help or advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for all your work!!

give me some suggestion how can i stop random reboots....:rolleyes::confused:
Short answer: Use a stable ROM until lollipop rom's are out of beta.

Longer: Use recommended TWRP to install with a very minimal gapps package. After it boots to the set language screen don't touch it. Just don't. Leave it to settle for 15 minutes. Then set it up. Install extra apps fresh. Your backups may not work well. Try out for a period of time. Report issues clearly in the forum.Good luck.
