There has been quite a bit of development on the full smartwatch front recently; notably the OpenWatch project that is in full swing and pretty much covered all the main manufactures and variants that are available.
Hopefully a new OS will be available shortly; however in the meantime Id like to offer this ported Resurrection Remix to the community as I have been asked a number of times to release it for testing.
I have been using this for about a fortnight now and so far am very pleased with the results. Battery life has been tripled with hibernation, and root access provides more potential.
Please note that the UI has not been optimized for round screens however anything awkward can be done via PC and a screen cast app. Im using Vysor.
Installation:
Install .zip via TWPR in the usual fashion. Factory reset wipe is recommended.
As always please process a full backup of your existing software inc. all partitions you have available (NVRAM etc) before flashing so you have a safe return point.
Details:
Resurrection Remix ROM 5.5.9 for MTK6580
Android Version: 5.1.1
Kernel: 3.10.72+
Ported for: Finox X5 AIR / LEMFO LEM5 Pro
Known Bugs:
Bluetooth - file transferring is 50/50
Display not optimised
No clock engine - please use Ricktops Universal Launcher to regain this function.
Palm brightness - use home button to turn screen on and off.
Suggestions:
Please allow 5+ minutes for OS for intial loading after flash.
Kernel editor - reduce max CPU frequency to 600Mhz
Install Xposed framework for Lollipop 5.1.1
Greenify (and enable framework in Xposed)
Change DPI to 200 - play around with this to see what suits you best
Enable expanded desktop for all apps
Use Battery Saving Mode and Airplane Mode when possible.
Once you have set up everything do a further backup to save you setting everything up again.
All credits to the Resurrection Team for their ROM. I have not altered any aspect of the original, simply ported this over to my device.
This should work on any 5.1.1 smartwatch if properly ported using your stock files. Please see ported folder in download link to see which file I have corrected. Replacing these files with your own stock resources should work.

Here is the ported Resurrection ROM for the Thor Pro - I honestly have no idea if this will work as I cant test it, but in theory it should?
You mentioned that you have a full backup already, I would suggest copying the BACKUP folder from the TWRP folder on your SD card to your PC so you can transfer it back in the event you need to do a full wipe if this bootloops. If you are using SPFT then chances are you will return back to stock recovery unless you modify the stock fw. From experience, its easier to just do a fresh flash when these thing dont work.
If you see the RR logo, wait a good 5-10 minutes for it to load. If it doesnt, chances are the port failed. In which case Im sorry.
Id also grab the Universal Launcher from an apk mirror so you can get the watch functions back and also using Vysor to set it up makes it much easier. Suggestions are in post above.
With regards to the connect phone app, it should work - Im using watchdroid to ping notifications over and it works with no issues.
Good luck! And let us know how you get on. Fortune favours the bold.

Awesome man, thanks a lot! I will test it tomorrow because it is 23:30 here in Portugal so its late. But tomorrow once I get back from work I will test it. Btw does it include the "connect phone" app to be able to use with wiiwatch? Or do I have to install later as system app or something?

I hope it works for you; would open it up for more people to hopefully improve it.
Im sorry Im not familiar with connect phone or wiiwatch? If its a app that came with the watch you could maybe look for it on the manufactors website? However WiiWatch - Watch Assistant is available on the app store (or an apk mirror) if this is what you mean? Could try that.
Keep us posted.

The connect phone app comes pre installed on the stock rom and that's what makes it able for the wiiwatch app to find the phone...and I have no other alternative because I have an iPhone:/. Anyway I will try the rom!
It didn't work...some errors like "error 7" and some "symlinks missing". I think I am going to sell it because it simply does not work properly with the iphone, it causes major battery drain on my phone because of the wiiwatch app to connect=/
But thanks a lot for your help!

Damn error 7 - i removed the asserts from the updater script - so it could be a number of other things.
Im sorry it didnt work mate. I would be up for trouble shooting it with you but would be so hard pin pointing the problem without a device to test it on here. Best just wait for OpenWatch to be released, or as you said sell it. I wonder what the delivery would be from Portugal to UK? : )
I appreciate you giving it a shot, ill remove the link so no-one else tries.
All the best.

I am now waiting for the battery to run out because I don't know the combination to boot into twrp xD. Also, unlike cellphones, forcing the power button doesn't turn it off, it just keeps rebooting. Thanks a lot for your help. I contacted zeblaze and they said they would look into the issues. First they sent me a firmware to try (which was older than the one you based the rom on, which was the same that came with my watch lol). Zeblaze seems to be very unorganized, even their site does not have firmware available to download...its a shame really, I wish i had bought a lemfo or kingwear!

If you want to speed it up remove the backplate and follow the battery ribbon to the motherboard. If you use something pointy but rounded you can just pop the contact up (disconnecting the battery) then push it back on. But you will most likely need to reflash with SPFT unless you have a way of booting into TWRP from power off.
It is ashame they arent more on the ball with updates etc, ive heard this alot with zeblaze. definetely go LEMFO or KW next - ive been told these have a very secure future and support is now officially by the RASC community from what I know.
Yeah that’s bad they don’t want to support the Thor pro is a really good budget device with big screen and outside readable, we still have the original firmware and not updated, yeah I have an IPhone to and the Bluetooth connection is not so good but it works the Bluetooth calling works too good and I have to install an app Volume booster because is so low and for the position of the hardware is really bad this device has potential. I am waiting for my Lemfo LemX
Good work on the port. Im trying to get RR on my Microwear H2 (1gb 16gb) I have a working TWRP recovery. Could you point me in the direction of the port guide you followed for your watch so i can try and port it myself. Thanks
Also, have you managed to port any higher versions of android for your watch? I am aware of the Openwatch project, which brought me to your post.
EDIT: Just read the last few lines of your 1st post. Will have a go as you have suggested. Thanks

I have a C version and was able to intall a real root access with Kingo and than remove the unwanted apps with a good uninstall app.
Now I have almost non chineese signs, my battery lasts mutch longer and it feels more "my phone"
One problem to solve. I can't lock the screen. Probaly because the phonenumber isn't bound. There is no way to fill the number field with a + and my international number. So I can't get a code to bind.
Is ther somebody with the same problem?
Hey everyone. I have one strange and annoying problem:
I went running, so I turned on Endomondo and Rocket Player. I started new training and started running. After few minutes both apps stopped working(without any alerts or anything). I tried few times again with Endomondo and every time when I unlocked phone the app was like freshly started. I have no clue what to do now. Now I'm trying playing some music on rocket player - after few minutes app just stops again......
Oh, and if you shake your phone do you have a feeling that something is "clunking" inside?
I heard that the A version of rom got less crappy apps than U or C. In general if you want use this phone use version A and wait for I.
Hey guys,
got this device since yesterday and wanted to remove the chinese-bloatware. But if I deinstall them with TB, they just reappear after reboot. Isn't this possible with the last firmware (Flyme OS 4.5.3.2A)?
Thank you very much!
Hello everyone,
I did all the works in trying to root it (according to every available instruction available), and still no app (and I did try a lot) has root access. Basically, just the same as this guy:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gen...2-note-mini-root-failed-t3217530#post63159227
Has anyone encountered any such problems? Firmware is 4.5.3.1A, phone purchased off Pandawill.
Thanks in advance!

Thank you, this worked. Below is a short summary, in case anybody is interested.
First did an upgrade, all the settings and apps remained as they were, and the root worked. Well, Play Store had it's issues, which could have been solved. After, did a clean upgrade, and it still worked. So I guess that's the solution. Be wary that you have to use "Google Installer" in the Meizu "App Center" to install Google Play.
BUUUUUT. Now the mobile data services won't work. I did uninstall some System applications, but I stayed within those proposed by the OP in the first posts. Does anybody know where to go to solve this?
Thanks!

Aaaaaand, I made it all work out. Don't really know how - after quite a few APN settings, it finally worked. Even though I'm 99% sure I did the right settings the first time. Hell knows.
So, for any others - watch out over your APN settings after a clean install. You must use your carrier's defaults (found on their website). And maybe a bit of luck/voodoo? Dunno what I did wrong the first times.

I got my device with 4.5.3.2 a. it has only a limited list of languages.
Has anyone the version 4.5.3 a? please update what languages it has
try to install google services, but the google installer from app center failed when try install google services. after that "a key to install" came up and i press it, but same thing happen, always failed. even uninstall and reinstall the google installer
EDIT :
I found out that the newest version that is google installer 2.0 from App Center doesn't work well. i download the 1.4.4 it's install successfully on my m2 mini running flyme 4.5.3.2a
Hi Guys,
Sorry I'm an absolute newbie on forums so if I'm doing anything wrong please correct me :angel:
I have bought the Asus Zenpad 8.0 Z380C last weekend and I really like the tablet but the bloatware on it is absolutely killing me :crying: and my RAM. I was wondering if there is any way to get a clean version of the ASUS stock firmware or any clean custom rom for this device. I can't seem to find any dev working on this. The stock rom isn't bad but it feels like all the unused apps are slowing the tablet which is a shame as it is a good cheap tablet which can do much more.
THanks!
Niels
You need root your Z380C and unintall all bloatware.

This is the second post asking about root that you provided this particular link to and touted it as a resolution to the problem. Do you own a z380c and/or have you personally tried the method outlined in the page you have linked or did you simply google this answer?
That page just lists garbage software that's in Russian and Chinese that requires you to do surveys to download (i.e. scam software) and neither of those programs are able to root the z380. The first clue this page is crap is that the screenshots are for different devices! This is NOT an answer to the question asked.
OP: I'm looking for an answer too, if I find it, I will post it here. Good luck!
Yes I have z380c and now I know my links are bad (I used only google) I am sorry. I think here will be solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/intel-android-devices-root-temp-cwm-t2975096
I read about the temp rooting and untill now all have failed with me. I think we will have to wait untill the locked bootloader gets cracked or bypassed. I would love to see the new CM 13 on my zenpad. Just installed it on my note 3 lte.
I am afraid z380c is not very dilated. For CM is not interesting. But who knows.
Any good news?

This ROM is for the Qualcomm version of the tablet, not Intel as the OP requested and will not work.
This method worked for me, remember to rename the downloaded file "root-v2-z380c.img" to "root.img" (without the quotes) before the command "fastboot boot root.img"
good luck

Zenpad 8.0 Z380C (P022) Custom ROM or help with building a custom ROM ??
I'm also searching for a custom Rom for Asus Zenpad 8.0 Z380C (P022).
As I'm not a software-expert I was not able to build a custom ROM for myself, but I'm still trying/fighting. Downloaded the Kernel source from Asus, still errors when trying to make the kernel. And afterwards?
Anyone here who have experience with these things and can help me?
Reason: Bluetooth "bug" (or however you name it) in Android 5, therefore a big wish to go for Android 6 or 7. Makes no sense to scrap the tablet and buy a new one. And I'm still thinking the performance could be way better when disabling/deleting all the stuff you don't need on this device (bloatware is already removed). Maybe I'm wrong...
Zenpad is rootet.

I'm using Uninstall Master, but if you have a better alternative, let me know.
I've read people using Xposed to get more control (to remove ZenUI), but also people who bricked their devices with it.
Can anyone confirm Xposed isnt working or is working for Z380C?

Hi,
I installed SuperSU, BuxyBox and Root Browser after rooting. Maybe there are better options, I don't know since I'm not so familiar with all these stuff than other users here. I can't tell you what I have removed, but I also deactivated some stuff (see for yorself if this is a good idea):
Android System WebView
ZenCircle...
Asus Browser- Secure Web Surf
File Manager (the ZenUI ASUS one)
Asus SuperNote
Google Fotos
Chrome Browser
Google Text-in-...
Google
In the System Menu "Apps" i have quiete more deactivated.
Afterwards i deleted ome of these folders with the Root Browser.
But as you can see in my post, I'm not satisfied, especially because Bluetooth. And I want to setup a totally clean Android and install all for myself.

Thanks! :good:
It seems Busybox is installed, since I installed Titanium Backup from the Play-store (showing BusyBox 1.19.4-Titanium from app).
Perhaps it's more easy to show what can be disabled or removed, using screenshots.
Take note: I don't use the whole photos or camera stuff, since the camera of this device is crappy.
I use my device for browsing, also speaking to Google to search + Youtube + Deezer for music. That would be all.
I'll start with mine, perhaps you can download the zenpad_apps_all.png and edit it, putting a red X-mark on top of the ones you have disabled/removed.
I've deleted Kindle, Amazon, Zinio, Clean Master, Supernote, Google Maps, and some others, that are obvious to remove.

Hello everyone.
This is a
HELP thread
for asking questions regarding custom ROMs and the issues that you might have with them for this device. Before you post, please read the FAQs at the bottom, and then proceed to ask your question.
Note - the members may or may not provide you a step by step solution, and will provide you links, please check those links carefully, and if you still do not understand, ask your question again.
If the community notices real issues (which are different from the usual "Does this work, does this not?" questions), it will be forwarded to the respective ROM thread (or we'll request you to forward).
Help us in keeping the custom ROM threads clean and help the developers to focus on important issues.
Device Specific Information
Codename athene in development circles. Here, we often use G4 and G4 Plus interchangeably with athene. That's why ROM titles have the word ATHENE in them. Don't be confused.
Device names according to manufacturer - XT16xx. The xx in the end changes as per region. For instance the Indian version is XT1643.
For more information regarding the device, and the availability of ROMs, etc, go to this [INDEX] thread.
Yes, the INDEX thread is mine, I'm not self promoting, I'm linking this because the older one has not been updated in a long time, and no amount of messages to moderators seems to have any effect. If you wouldn't mind, please send a message to the moderator to make this the sticky INDEX thread to help Moto G4 Plus users.
Note: this information is out of date.
Common bugs
Fingerprint enrollment issues. Flash Nougat to resolve this. No, you have to flash, if you don't want to, please do not post bug reports. Follow this guide by @rahulsnair to update your phone to Nougat soak test. We have a soak test because the release version has not yet been captured for us to use. You can also (although the developer still won't accept bug reports) rename the fingerprints to add more (credits @mason2smart). Also, try this as mentioned by @__Maddy.
Camera/Video recording issues. Use the built in camera, NOT Moto Camera (the camera you had on stock ROM) as your camera. You can also use any other recording app (Cameringo, Motorola Camera, Google Camera all work just fine). And yes, Motorola Camera is different from Moto Camera. Camera issues are being sorted out by the CyanogenMod team (and will reflect on all ROMs that are based on CM), and only once those issues are sorted can the developers for this device sort any issues with ATHENE out. Note that for Moto Camera to work, you need to set the DPI (Settings > Display > Display Size) to the default one.
Video playback issues. Please use this thread by @strongst for providing logs and other details. The only OS that doesn't seem to be affected by this is Vanir.
Unable to share images/screenshots from gallery or filemanager. Sort this one out by formatting your internal storage. Credits @smitharro, here.
Chop-Chop/ Torch issues. Do a reboot. It should work then.
VoLTE issues. Follow the instructions on this thread, if that doesn't help we need logs, or we really can't help.
Mobile data intermittently stops working. See this post.
CyanMod/RR bugs
Camera issues. Update in next build.
CypherOS bugs
Video Recording doesn't work. Use Footej/Cameringo Lite for now.
External SD read error in inbuilt file manager. Use another file manager.
LOGS
(and why we keep asking for it.)
Imagine you make a cake. And you give it to a person, who says he doesn't like it. And then leaves. You have no idea what went wrong with your food, why that person doesn't like it, what that person would see as an improvement in your cake. You eventually go mad as more people keep saying they don't like your cake, and leave without further information.
This is exactly what happens when you state your bug (that the developer cannot easily reproduce) and then leave it at that. The developer cannot figure out what went wrong. So, to find out what could possibly have gone wrong, (s)he requires a log. The log tells the developer what all errors have occurred, and what could be done to possibly fix them.
Logs are also known as logcat (and other types). Find a helpful tutorial on how to take logs here.
Best way to present logs is to either upload the file to a hosting site, or paste the contents on pastebin, or hastebin, and share the link here.
How to report issues hereThe aim of this thread is to become a source for all members to ask questions on issues they face in all ROMs. So report your bug after specifying the ROM, and the build date. For instance, if I am using CyanMod from Silesh.Nair, which he uploaded for use on 21st April 2016, then I start my issue as
CyanMod 20160421
and we'll help you sort out your issues as much as we can, and if we are stumped, the developers will help you out.
Okay, last one, stop.
Solution For Single FP over MM baseband
If anyone don't want to Flash Nougat Soak or Modem, follow this procedure ( I'm using 5 FP over MM baseband )
** Firstly you will need Fresh start **
On fresh start complete setup wizard process, DON'T add security and FP when asked..
After seting up device go to
settings > security
Add your preferable unlocking option,
Now for FP,
Add your 1st FP, it will get successfully enrolled,
And now you have 4 FP left to add..
** Follow common procedure for remaining 4 FP **
Now add next FP ( add one FP only)
Obviously you will get "Enrollment Error" on any next FP..
After every Enrollment Error Close Setting app completely ( Force stop is preferable, or better do reboot)
Now open Setting again and do same...
*** Note ***
Don't add next FP directly without closing Setting app otherwise you will get "GHOST FP"
You will be not able to remove those FP unless getting Fresh Start again...!!
Count how many FP you have added, i haven't tried adding 6th FP, so better to count 5 FP only..

I'm no expert, but to the best of my knowledge, these will be upstream bugs, so devs will have to wait for CyanogenMod team to fix them, before they can implement the fix.

N baseband does not work with custom roms. At least not for me.I installed soak test N and I stopped being able to make calls when I installed the roms. I suppose they only work with the MM baseband.

You are right, but I install everything as it should be and even when I restart the device not to the sign of the sim card.I'll try again and see if it's some mistake I made.
Finally, FRD-L04 Oreo (Android 8) firmware has just appeared in FF and we are going to get EMUI 8 (Oreo) soon after testing it by Honor team and giving the approval.
A roll back package has also appeared.
I guess we will be getting it in a month time.
What do you think..?
Change log:
EMUI 8.0 not only brings you the latest version of Android (8.0), it's also boosted with a lot of great features and improvements to make your device more intuitive, faster and safer. We highly recommend updating now.
[Highlights]
● Smarter
A new floating Navigation dock lets you perform frequently-used operations from anywhere on the screen. Newly added home screen shortcuts let you quickly access the app features you use most frequently. Simply touch and hold an app icon to display a shortcut menu.
● Faster
AI-based optimizations deliver greater stability, fluidity, and speed. The system boots faster, videos are more fluid, and images thumbnails load rapidly even in huge volumes.
● Safer
Enjoy enhanced protection for your system and data with new updates to system security.
[Find out more]
● Smart tips recommend you faster and smarter ways to operate your phone, appearing in specific usage scenarios and responding to your usage habits.
● Contacts and Email now let you sync the career details of your LinkedIn contacts.
● Settings has been redesigned for clearer and more intuitive organization.
● Gallery now features a recycle bin that retains deleted photos for up to 30 days. Accidentally deleted photos can be restored with a single touch.
● Phone Manager has been simplified to make managing your device easier. Standard cleanups are faster and deep cleanups more thorough.
● Your device can now connect to two different Bluetooth devices at the same time, such as a band and a car.
Important:
1. Automatic time zone uses location information to set a time zone when Location information is enabled.
2. Due to the redesign of Settings, the location of certification logos, legal information, and regulatory information (if applicable) has been altered.
3. To improve your experience, Smart notifications will be updated when you are connected to Wi-Fi. You can disable auto-updates in Settings.
4. Your device may automatically download and install updates from your carrier and device manufacturer (may use mobile data) after the update. This feature is enabled by default. You may disable it in Settings > System > Developer options.
Update notes:
1. You are advised to back up data before the update. After the update, certain pre-installed third-party apps on Android 7.0 may be uninstalled. They will still be available in App Store.
2. Some third-party apps that are not compatible with Android 8.0 may function incorrectly after the update. It is recommended that you update these apps to their latest versions in the Google Play Store.
3. This system version can be rolled back to the official version of EMUI 5.0 in Phone Manager. Rolling back the system version will erase your personal data. For more information, please contact the customer service hotline.
4. If you encounter any problems during the update, please contact the customer service hotline or visit an authorized Huawei service center for assistance which you can find.
5. Your home screen layout may be rearranged slightly.
Nitrowarez.

That was actually supposed to be a patch in B396 which the team skipped. Hopefully they've integrated that patch into the oreo firmware.

Yeah I know, that's why I wasn't happy with the B397 update. Let's hope it gets fixed because the EU variants had an update that fixed the issue so I was really looking forward for the issue to be fixed here.

Yeah ik, but for us they skipped B396 and went straight to B397 from B395. I felt that the B396 does have the fix for that issue but even then we still haven't gotten that.
That's amazing thank you!

Follow The Steps There, Download Latest Full OTA In Firmware Finder Make Sure It Is Approved. I Dont Wanna Risk You Bricking Ur Device With Oreo
Make A Folder, Name It Anything.
1. Put The Latest HurUpdater There
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279
2. Put The Update.zip In That Folder, You Dont Have To Rename That
3. Rename The Update Data Full File To "update_data_public.zip"
4. Rename The File That Has A Model Number To "update_all_hw.zip"
5. Download This, This TWRP (this TWRP Is For Android 7!!
https://www.google.com/amp/s/forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/development/twrp-t3566563/amp/
6. Rename That TWRP File "recovery.img".
Once Ur Done It Should Look Like This Image.

EnigmaNL PortSo I'm finally sharing this ROM lol.
A lot of the people that are in my Telegram group already knew about this ROM from long ago. I just felt lazy to upload it to xda. And now I feel bad about it xD
Man, this is the second time I am uploading old stuff that I shared on Telegram and not in XDA. Yikes.
I re-visited the Enigma ROM because I like its looks and features and went ahead and fixed a few things and added a few others
So, here's what you can look forward to with this ROM
Code:
Your warranty is now void.
* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about flashing this zip file
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you. HARD!
Features!
Port between A7 and Enigma V6.1
Deodexed
Heavily debloated
Zipaligned
Very Optimized
Aroma installer
Multiple kernels
Modded Screen record
Floating Messages
Scroll Capture
Edge Panels
UI and Edge dynamic blur
Fixed Multi-window
Fixed radio
Infinite paid themes in Samsung Theme Store
ROM control filled with features
And stock J2 Prime stuff
Phoenix Kernel features:
Double tap to wake (thanks to @remilia15 for letting us kang *ahem* I mean see how it is implemented xD)
Multi-touch up to 10 finger detection
Our attempt at OC, too bad it's not that good
Scores high in Antutu scores xD
Bugs!Custom kernel included has a few bugs. You can avoid these bugs by installing stock kernel included in Aroma, so you have been warned
Kernel dies when the phone turns off. Either by turning off manually or if the battery dies. This will make you stuck on Samsung splash screen. To fix this, boot to TWRP then select Reboot and then System. Easy fix.
If this does not work, the only way to recover your phone is by flashing stock via Odin

How to report a bug/Ask for a change
Over the small amount of time I've been doing my edits and shared them with the community, I've noticed something that seems to irritate me. I can't speak for all the developers on this forum, but I do edits/ROMs/PORTs/etc... to what I like. I don't work for anybody else but me. I share my work because it may have something of value to other people and/or some people may share the same taste as me on regards to what they want on a ROM.
That being said, that doesn't mean I will completely ignore what the community has to say.
First and foremost, it must be said, I am merely a beginner. I do not claim to be a professional developer that knows how to add everything, I am nowhere close and I learn as I go.
There are ways to ask for something and/or report a bug when it comes to ROMs, and this post is my attempt to try to explain how to (and how not to) report a bug in order to help me out as much as possible to try to fix something
You can also ask for something to be added, but there are also ways to ask for something
So, here we go
Keep in mind:
I do not add stuff that can easily be downloaded from the Playstore
I, myself, don't do kernel edits
I COULD remove stuff if NOBODY uses it
---REPORTING BUGS---
How NOT to report a bug:
"SystemUI (or any app)is crashing, please help!"
"Instagram doesn't allow me to edit my post, what could be wrong?"
"My bank account app is not letting me do such thing"
These posts are sort of pointless as they only state something but I have no context on what could be causing it. Also, I can't really control (for the most part) third-party apps, so if you're going to ask about them this way, don't even bother
A slightly better way to report a bug:
"I clean installed the ROM and was working fine, after I installed Facebook and logged in, I immediately uploaded a photo and SystemUI started to crash. Can you look in to it?"
"I tried to install Black Neon theme (a link to it would work as well) and it was working fine until I tried to activate AOD (or anything else for some reason) and SystemUI (or any other app) is crashing, could you look in to it?"
"My bank account app doesn't let me take a screenshot of my accounts. I get a toast notification saying "Can't take screenshot due to security policy"
As you can see, this provides a bit more context and explanation on your current situation. This gives me a little more detail on trying to replicate the problem and hopefully could fix it by replicating it. Well, except for point #3 which is out of my hands for the most part (I think). If you include what kernel you're using would make everything better! Also any significant change that would require root (like xposed and or anything that modifies /system also needs to be informed for better results)
The BEST way to report a bug:
LOGCAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please learn the ins and outs of a logcat, this really helps a lot on finding what the problem is. Also, please give a brief explanation as the above examples when providing a log cat
---ASKING FOR STUFF TO BE ADDED---
How NOT to ask for stuff:
On your next update, add iris scanner
You should add (app) on your next update
Hey, please add (app or feature) on your next update
No, I do not work for you. Even if you say please like the third example, that doesn't mean you're being polite. It still sounds like an order lol so you should probably rephrase your request.
How to ask for stuff to be added to my work:
Would you be so kind to add (feature) to your ROM, if possible?
Would it be possible to add this app to your ROM?
Please, can you add (feature) to your ROM, if it isn't much to ask?
See how politeness makes everything better? You're not demanding it, you're just politely asking to see if maybe it is within my grasp to add something. And if all request would be like this, I can assure you I'd try my best to add said feature
I hope this is useful to you or I at least hope that some people read it.
If not, I can just tell you to return to stock ROM, probably better than any ROM I put out anyway

Tested it on my G532M. I think that it's the best custom ROM available for this phone. Very fast, stable and with a lot of free space.
Hmm, link is broken bro?

No, that's pretty much it. I have not worked on any other ROM.
This mod is better than the Hades!
100% Stable.
i'll edit if there's a problem
"ROM Installed Successfully "
Changed Status Bar Icon Colors on SyneXOS RC
All icons changed color but the notification icon is too dark and it doesn't change color at all.
and sometimes the Battery Percentage Color sometimes changes back to then instantly changes it to my seleceted color.
i tried to change color per icon then restart it
"I installed Extra Ordinary Ones but the app always stopped working if i open it, tried to uninstall it my storage still can't free up some space"
Storage Problem still not solved even in Custom ROM

Of course it's not fixed. It will never be fixed by a custom ROM. The problem this device has in partitioning. It's got 3 GB reserved for system and out of those 3, this ROM only occupies 1.7.
That means that there is an unreachable 1 GB of storage.
Your data partition will always be the same. This device will always have storage problems. You can either buy a new device, use something like an adoptable storage or find an app that can move some of your apps to the system partition.
Oooh that sucks.:crying:
Thanks for replying!
the double tap to wake doesn't work on my phone and also what's better to use interpret only or just ART?

Use a kernel adiutor to activate double tap to wake
Interpret only for more storage and normal art for performance
