Review.

I've used this ROM for about 3 days now. (0722 build) All I can say is, I'm quite impressed.
Introduction:
The ROM comes with SuperSU v2.76 (latest version) so you don't have to flash it. Flashing it once again won't break anything either. Xposed works fine too.

Customizations:
At first I thought this ROM doesn't have any customisation. But I only found out yesterday that ALL its features are hidden in the button located at the top-right corner of Settings. Maybe I'm blind but it's the first time I've seen this. Weird. I really like the customisation in this ROM. It's not too bloated like RR,BS or DU. I have almost every feature that I need except single press button tweaks. I really need single press Screenshot feature which is only available in DU. Exodus G+ page states that devs are not accepting feature requests, oh well. The network indicator in the status bar is TOO BIG for my liking and there is no option to hide the network arrows. You also cannot tweak the quick setting tiles. Also, this is my first time using a ROM with Layers. It is far more customizable than CMTE but is more troublesome to set up. I'll give the win to Layers. Currently I'm using a theme called Art reborn. If anyone of you has any recommendations, just quote me here. These are my comments for this ROM.

Bugs:
@Raja.M You're probably using the kernel from Official CM of cancro which is infamous for its bluetooth audio bug. It is also present in this ROM. The first few tracks I played were fine. But after that the player automatically pauses and clicking the Play button does not play the music. Just to make sure it's not my player (Poweramp) at fault, I tried YouTube as well. The results were same. So if you always use bluetooth audio, maybe flash ZeurionX kernel which has very weak battery life from my testing.

Battery/Wakelocks:
Screenshots are attached. In short, it's very good, probably the same with official CM since they use the same kernel. (Probably)

Conclusion:
This ROM is rather stable and I quite like it. I'll stay here for a while and report back if I discover anything new. I hope the bluetooth audio bug can be fixed. Thanks Exodus team, especially Raja.M.

You can change quicktiles by long press setting tile on status bar ;)

there's a fix for that, you need to flash a different persist.img, i'm sure you can find it if you search for persist.img sensor fix. i'm not able to find a link right now, maybe later today
If you find a perfectly working persist file, please share it here.

I had this too. I flashed the Substratum build and it bricked the phone. Thought it was a one time occurrence. I didn't really try it later.

Also, how did you get the persist partition?
