Hi MAD, thank for a wonderful rom. Kindly please make the single press menu key menu again, not recent app. or at least add it on settings. All button settings there is only for long press and double press. I am used to long press home button for recent apps, and menu key for the menu. Thank you

This layout is default for all newer devices. Menu button basically is not used any more... We'll check making it an option

Please fix wifi. I am having problem connecting to a hidden SSID wifi. Needs to restart many times to connect. Thank you.

 

[dranreb08]

This rom is pretty fast.

 

[miota85]

Thank you very much for the new rom.

I've been try to root the cell but I haven't been able to do it. I have unsuccessfully tried some times doing a full wipe each time. First, I have flashed the new recovery through the official TWRP app and as I have understood we should flash rom and gapps at the same time (I have select them in this order) and after the first boot flash supersu or Magisk (I have tried with both). Please, could you provide support about this? I am doing something wrong?

I have seen that you recommend to use the f2fs file system. I have been looking for the partitions to format with this file system and I think that should be data and cache. Am I right about this?

Thanks for the quick reply. The link you posted needs an authorization. Please, can you attach your working zip as a reply to this thread? I believe it would be useful and perhaps @fire855 @superdragonpt and @DerTeufel1980 could also use it to edit the Opening Post for the benefit of everyone? Thanks!
