Chroma is a lightweight AOSP ROM focused on battery, performance and stability.
The philosophy of Chroma is to stay relatively close to Google's stock Marshmallow with the additions of essential features that should have been included with stock Marshmallow as well as providing the most up-to-date security patches.

Features:
Modified version of hellsgod's HellsCore kernel
Layers support
Native LED notifications (solid, limited to RGB colors)

Status Bar Customization:
Battery Style (Icon Portrait/Landscape, Circle, Text, Hide) and Battery Percentage
Clock & Date (Show/Hide, Color, Alignment, AM/PM, Show/Hide Date, Date Style, Date Format)
Brightness Control (long press status bar to change brightness)
Double-tap status bar to turn screen off
Show/hide notification count
Quick pull-down on left/right side to pull down tiles
Network traffic
Pressing on clock or date on status bar opens up Clock, Calendar
Status bar weather
Show/hide brightness slider

Navigation bar customization
Navigation bar height
Kill app back button
Double tap navigation bar to sleep
Clear all recents button (swipe down on recent apps and it'll display on the bottom right)

Lock screen customization
Lock screen wallpaper
Power menu customization (power off, reboot, screenshot, airplane mode)
Advanced Reboot (reboot/soft reboot/recovery/bootloader)

Volume rocker customization:
Wake device with volume keys when screen off
Long press volume up/down keys to skip track when screen off

Other:
A large number of optimizations, memory leak fixes, security patches
Long press recents to swap back to previous app
Prevent camera shutter sound
... and more (see changelog)

FAQ
Q : Can you add this feature?
A : I am not a developer. Just a builder. I was ported because I wanted to use the Chroma. I'm sorry expected to.

Q : I do not know what you're saying.
A : I am studying English. Even this I will strive hard. I'm sorry if there is a rude word. There is no malice.

BUG
Signal is dropped after every call.
Not working : Battery light

Thanks for keeping the Chroma ROM updated for our device!

At the moment Android Keyboard (AOSP) doesn't seem to work at all. It keeps force closing as soon as the system boots up. Only switching to a different keyboard seems to stop the problem.

I didn't install gapps and both aosp and google keyboard were installed as system apps, just uninstalled AOSP keyboard using titanium backup.
For me main missing thing is gravity box tile settings that not work with this build. It was working in saosp and had more tiles and tile settings.
