This is CandySiX. Built straight from source with commits from a variety of different Sources/ROMS. We wanted to give the users a fun, fully customizable ROM. We aim to add more features as this project progresses.

CHANGELOG

ATTENTION
  1. BaNks GApps has announced that they are not supporting TWRP versions older than v3.0.0.0, so It is suggested to use TWRP v3.0.0.0 and up going forward.

Coming from another ROM
1) Download CandySiX.zip (See Post #2)
2) Download 6.0 Gapps (optional - See Post #2)
3) Boot into recovery
4) Full wipe (Dalvik Cache, Cache, System, Factory Data Reset)
5) Flash CandySiX.zip
6) Flash Gapps
7) Reboot

Updating from previous CandySiX release
1) Download CandySiX.zip (See Post #2)
2) Boot into recovery
3) Flash CandySiX.zip
4) Reboot
5) Please give first boot a good few minutes

IMPORTANT - PROBLEMS/ISSUES:
If you have issues, I need logs from you (logcat, last_kmsg, dmesg) linked to on pastebin.com or hasteb.in, showing the failure, along with a clear description of the steps that I need to take to exactly reproduce the problem. Please DO NOT complain about problems and offer nothing to help fix it. You will most likely be ignored...

NO ETA REQUESTS!
Special thanks to @Cuzz1369 @rc420head, BrokenROM, CyanogenMod, SlimRoms, Omni and all the rest who make their source open. We can't do this on our own.

Depending on how often the kernel is updated, the ROM will always have the same commits or more frequent than the stand alone kernel.
