Change Log
-Beta 4 (13 Mar 2016)
- misc audio fixes
- Include webgl
- video library updates
- removed some incompatible duplicate libraries
- re-synced to upstream sources(March 1 security level patches).​
- Beta 2 (5 Mar 2016)
- Fixed AudioFx
- Fixed Fm Radio
- Misc sound improvements
-Improved bluetooth performance
- Modified permissions to allow non system apps to write to external_sd​
- Initial Release (Beta 1) 29 Feb 2016
- fixed WiFi
- I haven't modified the permissions to allow non system apps to write to the external sd card. So if you want your play store apps to be able to write to external_sd you will need to install the "SDFix" app by NextApp then let it do it's thing and reboot. (you can uninstall the app once it's rebooted and the fix will stay)
- See post below for a fix for the audiofx bug.​

---

Optional Extras
- To increase in call volumes on beta4 and earlier builds flash this.
- To improve camera picture quality on beta4 build and earlier flash this.
- To fix the AudioFx crashing bug on the 1st release(29 Feb 2016) just flash this update zip . It just updates a few audiofx libs. Do not on newer builds.

So far so good MiniBlu i noticed that even my games are running way better then before very nice work from you keep it up
Only bug i've found is that the audiofx crashes when i try to open it

---

What kernel can you recommend? That from zihan thread or Jmz one?

---

Any way to get a stock DPI on lollipop?
For example, in some pics of setting menu online, it is not as big.
I know this has to do with DPI, and changing it can cause compatibility issues, but I just wanna know what DPI I should use for a stock look DPI.
Changing it causes now launcher to look weird. Any suggestions?

---

Nice work! This rom is compatible with the xposed framework? Sorry but for me the xposed is very important...

I rcomend the kernel that comes with the rom. The jmz kernel is for 4.4 stock roms and will not work with this rom. zihan hasn't released a flashable kernel yet but his sources and mine are almost identical as he based his work of my 4.4 cm kernel. I your wanting to build your own kernel the @zihans sources are the way to go at the moment.

240 dpi is the stock dpi it just looks different in cm. I would just changs launches and text size settings. You can also change dpi from in cm settings > display & lights with out changing build prop.

It definately should be but I haven't tried it yet. Give it a go, and let me know.

Note to people who want xposed.
Tried it out, but I got bootloops (you have to use a different method than kk).
If you see the flashable zip type of installation, it yields a bootloops.
Will search around for solutions.

There is a whole different installer for lollipop. I'll find it and post a link latter.
PS - To fix audiofx just flash this. It just updates some soundfx libs and configs.
For xposed install this zip file from twrp. Then reboot (it will take quite a while to reboot so just be patient. Then install this apk. then go in to xposed app and in framework press reboot. If you like HTC sence 7 look and apps try installing "Sensify" module to get htc service pack and set up permisions to unlock all HTC apps on playstore (even camera although I haven't tested it yet). edit - sensify doesn't actually work but xposed does.

I encountered problem with installing TWPR 3.0, after flash device goes to strange loop where instead of system, recovery is opened

---

Even beta works like a charm with the audiofx fix.

Sounds like system patition got corrupt. Check to make sure you installed the corect twrp(for a3ul not some other device) as long as its the right one(if not intall the correct 1 with windroid tool) then use TWRP > WIPE > ADVANCED WIPE > and tick the boxes for system, data, cache and dalvic and swipe to format them, then return to main menu and install cm12.1 (or CM11) following the instuctions in the OP and you should be fine.

Thanks, it is going pretty well. Actually there is a new build upoading now (it will take a few hours to upload with my sh*t interneet connection so I probably won't post the link till the morning) It has a few good improvements. ie - better bluetooth performance, properly fixed speaker phone (louder and less echo), a few extra sound improvements (on top of the audiofx fix) and fixed permisions for non system apps writting to external_sd.

---

Yeah, even the headset volume is a bit low(with earplugs) but that's something i could live with.
Looking forward for the new version, great job man...the support for this device was dead.

Cool. I have actually made quite a few changes to both device and vendor. I'll upload my stuff to git tomorrow and you can take a look and cherrypick what you want to commit.
The new build is uploaded just putting up the links now.
