Because you probably never had stock on both slots. Flash stock to both slots then follow the flashing instructions from the OP.

I have the same problem as the person above.
Flashed latest factory image.
After following the instructions in "If you have a device that does not use TWRP", stock is still booting.
But the kernel shows unicorn, although the rest of the OS looks awfully alike stock, so I think it is stock.. A ROM feature list would be great..

And could you please explain how we flash it to both slots?

Edit; got it working now
- Removed the -w in flash-all (not sure if it was necesarry)
- Runned flash-all while on b
- Then fastboot --set-active a
- Runned flash-all while on a

Then followed the instructions, and it worked.

Boom. Good job!

Sorry for the tough love, but nobody learns anything by just being fed answers.

Is there any way install the vanilla Google sans font/any other additional font to the theme engine without rooting? Or does this need to come from you.

Thanks.

There is a version of it yes, but it isn't exactly the same. It's a bit bolder than the original. As to the second part of the question, is there any way to add fonts myself?

Unfortunately not. You would have to download our source and compile your own builds with modifications to frameworks/base, packages/apps/DU-Themes, and vendor/themes.

Been using this rom for about two months now... I don't know a lot of roms that can top this kind of stability! I love using it as my daily driver. Thank you!!!

Hi guys, I've been trying to download this rom all morning but for some reason it keeps failing right after 1 gig. I've tried 4g, wifi and hardline but I keep getting the same result. Any ideas?

Not sure. Seems to be something related to slow internet speeds. Our webmaster is looking into it.
