This is Candy5. Built straight from CyanogenMod source with commits from a variety of different Sources/ROMS. We wanted to give the users a fun, fully customizable ROM. We aim to add more features as this project progresses.

Check us out on the web @The-Candy-Shop

To Sprint Users:
There have been a few users who have reported having serious issues with mobile data after flashing this ROM. Whether it is caused by something in Candy5's source or cm's source is unknown. However, there is a reported solution to this specific mobile data issue below:



You need to go into Settings->Mobile Network and change CDMA subscription from NV to RUIM/SIM.

After you do that, change Network Type to Global. Reboot, make a backup, flash back to Sense. The phone should activate itself. If it doesn't, try updating profile. Flash back to Candy ROM and profit.

Thanks @repl1ca for the fix.
You must be on the LATEST FIRMWARE for your device!

Firmware Download Links:


All variants can be found in the link below. Be sure to ONLY flash the appropriate version for your carrier!


Future Candy5 updates can now be received via the included Candy OTA app!


ROM Download:



All bugs NEED to be reported with carrier info & firmware version!

I understand, show me the link:

Special thanks to CyanogenMod, Team EOS and SlimRoms for making their source open, and to @rashed97 for his dedication to bringing cm to the m9, to @varun.chitre15 and to @Flinny!

I might be doing something wrong but messages aren't sending or calls. seems like I have no service. I'm on sprint latest firmware .
There is really only one way we fixed this...

You need to go into Settings->Mobile Network and change CDMA subscription from NV to RUIM/SIM.

After you do that, change Network Type to Global. Reboot, make a backup, flash back to Sense. The phone should activate itself. If it doesn't, try updating profile. Flash back to Candy ROM and profit.

Just tried the 8/8 build on my TMO M9 (2.7.531.6) and I was unable to get any mobile data. I could make and receive texts and calls, but never got even a 2G connection

Thanks!

Thank you all very much for your work on this ROM. I've been using it for the past couple weeks, and I am more than happy to be running stock Android instead of Sense.
