About Marshmallow and others things

Tips to increase performance

• Use overclock CPU to 1150MHz for more stability, you can set with No-frills CPU Control
• Avoid heavy applications (For example Facebook App), Janice lacks of RAM necessary for Marshmallow to works fine
• The multitasking is bull**** in Lollipop and Marshmallow, Be sure to close apps when not in use!

F2FS tutorial

F2FS is not supported for this ROM, maybe someday

I still haven't tried the rom but a thank you is needed.
Thank you for keeping your promise.
No matter how the rom goes, your effort is very appreciated.

P.s. gapps links to a 404 not found page: there's an extra slash at the end of the link, delete it and works fine.

Just bookmark Bro.. And Big Thanks for your efforts.. Success..

 

[Cassiusss]

First impressions: fast and smooth with very few bugs, impressive for a first build, Epirex you're really awesome!

Bugs:
- you can't pass the initial configuration wizard without log in to your Google account (otherwise a pop-up shows saying that the wizard has suddenly stopped)
- i'm not able to switch to 2G
- gesture typing is absent, even with the option enabled (because there isn't libjni_latinimegoogle.so)
- screen flickers randomly in some subsettings, like "About phone" and "Mobile networks"
- when you record a video it shows "Camera error Can't connect to the camera." or froze at the end of the recording (if you close the camera app from recents apps and retry it works)
- reboot to recovery doesn't work (it reboot normally)
- "Wake up device" option for Back and Menu buttons is ineffective
- auto-rotate doesn't work if has been disabled for too long (a reboot fix this)
- delay for incoming calls (this bug is in every Lollipop e Marshmallow rom for S Advance)
- "Device only" location mode doesn't work

Thanks again for your work.

Time to become Flash-a-holic again with janice
Thanks So much @Epirex

 

[jadega]

Appreciate your Efforts @Epirex
Thanks for your Continues Support, Downloading and will report soon

 

[mahmud004]

i am having display issue it some time uncontrollably flashes randomly

 

[NithinNavaneetRaj]

Thank you so much ...I was waiting for your CM13..Can I flash CM13 rom directly from your MaxiCM 5.1.1 or do I have to be on stock JB?

 

[Cassiusss]

Jelly Bean is a minimum requirement: you can't install the rom on older os versions (Gingerbread), but you can install it on newer versions (KitKat, Lollipop, Marshmallow).

So yeah, you can install this rom from MaxiCM.

 

[Epirex]

Attempt to fix screen bug

Can anyone confirm if the screen flickers bug is present with this fix?
Flash from TWRP

 

[ZjemCiKolege]

@Epirex
Probaly problem is in ambient display

You can enable gello browser and snap camera? ;]

Rom works better than CM11 on Core 2 :E Good job

 

[jadega]

Initial Review :
-- ROM is smooth, fast, Fluid
-- Smooth animations
-- Took 5-6 Mins to install
-- Apps Force closes initially (Download Package etc.) but becomes stable after some time
-- Screen Flickering (Encountered 2-3 times but now after 1 day no flickering)
-- Quadrant Test takes a lot of time, In CM 13.0 Untested Build Jaince gave its Highest ever Score "4545" but in this ROM Jaince does'nt perform well in Quadrant
-- Battery Backup is Better

Overall The ROM is stable and can be used as a Daily Driver, Since it is in Beta Stages so minor bugs can be seen

Thanks @Epirex

Rom works better than on Core 2 with CM11 :E Good job
