Flashed it With slim gapps normal (http://209.95.39.164/Gapps/Lollipop/5.1/ )

Boots up normal
Normal things (Calls , SMS, Wifi mobiledata working) working. Kindly test Bluetooth and other connection features as I didn’t test on this initial setup
camera Working

GPS not working.

Overall UI is dark so no need of a dark material theme for those who prefer dark.

Thanks @rap_turkez for this rom.

Here are some SS
