There are new version in construction?

Yes 0.8.3 will be released tomorrow. I skipped 0.8.2 for v500 due to build issues. :good:

 

[timmytim]

Quick report:everything worked well, fast and smooth, need flash SuperSU zip to get root. Any one notice that the UI eg. Icons, font... is not crisp as other KK or AOSP rom?

One more issue is the GPS icon is always stay on the status bar.

Tks for dev hardwork [emoji106]

Im not sure why you are seeing a difference in font/icon resolution with this ROM as it is based on CM12, so you should see the same with that ROM if you flash it.

New version will be released tomorrow and the GPS icon will be fixed. It was a known bug and purely cosmetic, did not keep Location on all the time.

Thanks for the kind words

I flashed this two days ago on my v500 and it is a very good rom, smooth and stable. I was getting force close issues with apps like google drive and some other apps but everything is working fine on this rom. Good stuff :good::good:

Is it possible to add knock code and lg keyboard. Also, wallpaper changer apps don't work. Is there a security issue or something, that's stopping the app from setting wallpapers.

No prolem with twrp (2.8.2.0) and setting wallpaper with Quickpic.
Everything is fine, smooth and good battery life. Great work dev [emoji106]

With the lastest build, no need to flash SuperSu because built-in Superuser works well, TB also works well. I can restore all my apps from KK rom.

Comes updates or is 0.8.3 the latest?

 

[HjasToneC]

expanded desktop mode? (AKA immersive mode)

Hey guys, just wonderimg if expanded dessktop (or immersive) mode is available for this ROM? Not sure what it means by "candy interface". Thanks

 

[dialmformostyn]

ROM runs very smoothly. Only issue I've found is that it doesn't seem to be I can't unpin apps by holding the Overview button. I've also tried holding Back and Overview, but nothing. Only rebooting solves the problem.
