Swift and smooth ROM. The only issue I have, is that it drains battery quite fast (cell standby).

Hi Styxie

I've been using this rom ever since you posted it, as my daily driver. Great work, thanks a lot.

The main reason why I tried it was, because I always was short on storage and got error messages with CM nightly. So I tried this one together with open gapps pico. It solved my problems of low storage and lagging phone.

But I do experience the battery drain issue mentioned by steinarlundemo as well.

Do you plan to address this issue or is there an interim solution to fix that?

Best regards
dribber

Please help! I installed this ROM without problem but I have problem with capacity of storage. I formatted internal SDCard fully and I get the same problem as previos ROMs (CM, CarboonRom nad now LiquidSmooth).

Ever since I switched to Lollipop I battled with the same problem. I tried various things to improve the situation, but none of them worked to my satisfaction.
Now with LiquidSmooth the problem is gone.

That's what I did:
I resized my internal partitions (hint: not your internal SD card is the problem, but system and other partitions), used open gapps pico for starters and only added what I actually need.

Result, all my installed apps (and I have tons of them) are still updating successfully. No more annoying messages that an app couldn't be updated.

As a short relief you can try to use some app like clean master to delete caches and junk. It helped me for a while, but since the apps are growing it was only lasting for a short time. And I had to run the cleaner in between app updates to make it work.
So if you are looking for a more permanent solution, the repartitioning is the right choice.

What is left is the annoying battery drain, but it seems that this release will not be maintained. Or the dev is just too busy to send us a reply.
I still keep my hopes up that somebody will find a solution for this, so I can keep using my aged phone for a little while longer
