IWell guys I must say that on first impressions in very impressed.
The ROM downloaded very quickly
I flashed exactly as you said, wipe and clean install.
First time I tried it with open GAPPs 7.1Stock and it went through the installation process went through to installing super su then bounced back to TWRP when it came to installing GAPPs
I tried again with GAPPS 7.1 nano that I had used in a pervious ROM and it all installed no bother.
It did boot loop a couple of times before it got to the ANDROID boot animation.
I like the way the the ANDROID just sort of glimmers its simple and different.
It only took a few mins to boot and run through the set up and with use of titanium backup I had the whole thing set up in 10 mins.
The black and blue theme looks really good on my black Nexus.!
I ran through all the settings and couldn't find anything that isn't working for what I use.
I dont use this phone as a daily so I can't comment on the sim / signal / 4g etc.
All in all this looks like a great ROM that looks different from the others.
I prefer the Nova Launcher that you included over the pixel just coz I can do more with it.
This ROM is fast, smooth really well put together and looks different from the others.
It's the inbuilt theme engine that makes this a real winner although I'm not sure if you can add more theme than what are provided. There is enough there for me
Nice one guys
Thank you for you work.
Yes I have been poisoned by Cyanide

Cyanide has inbuilt themeing options, so OMS isn't merged. Substratum legacy may work if you don't apply framework. In built themeing includes changing of colours and fonts which is applicable almost everywhere.

I'm noticing that my battery seems to be draining very quickly.
It goes onto doze mode no bother when the phone isn't being moved.
I used TB to back up 2 apps and the battery was empty.
I did calibration with the battery when first installed.
I will do a screen shot on the next battery cycle.

Second battery cycle.
This is without a SIM card
The ROM dose mode is working as the battery life doesn't move until you start to move the phone.
I'm not playing any games.
No extreme use only on Google + and on here XDA
Battery saver is on
Hope this is of some use.
I really like the ROM but the battery is running out very quickly but then it only takes half hour or so to fully recharge

So to have a look at the issue. I clean flashed my build. Again. Initially got the heavy battery drain from Android System and Miscellaneous, did a few reboots, no effect. So what I did was, enabled Battery Saver and then disabled it. Don't know why though but the heavy battery drain was gone for me. At 39% stats showed around 1 hour and 20 minutes left. Used it till the phone was off and yep, I got more than an hour of usage from those 39%. So I think it must be an app misbehaving in the background. And this battery drain issue is present in a lot of ROMs, like AOSiP and Fake Nexus. So its just an app draining the battery.

I dont see whats in the features menu.
I can't get online with my Nexus at the MO due to hotspot issues.
I will get some screenshots up for you although I'm nothing to do with this ROM I'm just a tester.
You could always just flash the ROM yourself and have a look.
Failing that I'm sure that the developer will put up what you need.
It's a smart ROM. Looks good
