Important stuff :
--------------------------
1) Don't update kernel adiutor. Otherwise kernel adiutor option in settings will crash.

2) Fix everything ota 2.0 manual link :
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxkDSj8MtdPQVjVBOFRRWG1mNEE/view?usp=drivesdk

3) Ota 3.0 manual flash link :
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxkDSj8MtdPQTFlISnc0SXZZZjQ/view?usp=drivesdk
(Same as fast charging patch. All credit to @HDHR)

4) If data protection is crashing for you from security settings, then follow below steps :
--->Go to settings>apps
--->Press on the 3-dot in the corner.
--->Select "Show system apps"
--->Scroll the list and find "Data Protection"
--->Tap on "Data protection" to open its settings
--->Tap on permissions, and turn on "storage".
--->Congratulations!!! Now data protection is in-built in this ROM.

5) Stock kernel for AOSP MM roms :
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxkDSj8MtdPQamJJeTkzMkVRVjA/view?usp=drivesdk

6) Only build 1 will be supported completely by me. Note that v3 isn't an upgrade to ghost ROM. It is just another ROM version made by the ghost team. Both v1 and v3 are different versions. Not to be compared.

7) Link of build v3 :
http://goo.gl/v28AlV

(Changelog for v3 on page 3)

8) For fixing GPS bounce glitch, download an app from play store called " GPS fix"

@emil_515 @ginzon

There is nothing to fix in camera. It shows as 6mp but functions like 8mp normally.

And update 2.0 fixes compass and adds deep integration with MTK engineer mode.
Currently, it isn't uploaded properly, so you will face problems in downloading. I'll update the changelog once it gets released.

I'm fixing ota. I'm trying. To fix, I need a website that can host my files for free and give a direct download link as well. Your suggestions will be welcome. As long as I don't find such a host, ota will not work.

Ui tuner can be enabled by long-pressing for about 5 seconds the gear symbol in quick settings panel.

Multi-window mode can be enabled from developer options.

Don't ask noob questions on this thread before doing some search of your own.
I don't have enough time to update ss. Sorry.
I'll do it once I'm free.

Till then, I'll add the links of ota to 3rd post for installing manually.

For all the users who face a force close of apps from play store, just reboot once.
If it still doesn't work, contact me for the permanent patch.

I had considered all the scenarios and doubts that would arise in user's mind considering OTA.

The OTA 1.1 and 1.2 have been removed by me and included in OTA 2.0 along with other fixes.
So, OTA 1.3 only changes some system values to make your device prepared for next OTA.

But now I face another problem. If OTA size is greater than 5 MB then it will show md5 error.

OTA 2.0 is of 37mb. So gave manual links.

Also, OTA 2.0 can be flashed manually without flashing any of 1.x OTA.

OK. Download the xposed uninstaller. Flash it.
