Thanks for the feed back :) I was thinking of adding more apps what do you think?

And there's still more I want to do with the Rom so when I have more time like I did I will definitely be working on it ;)

Adding apps helps add flavor to the rom for sure... But usually less is more, at least to me.

When I'm building a rom, anything that can be downloaded from the play store I usually leave out (talk/hangouts, YouTube, google play music, etc). That doesn't include calendar and stuff like that obviously cause those are important to keep.

But adding an app that can adblock, overclock the phone, or add some hidden settings would help! I would say to have gravitybox installed, but that has to go through xposed so that's complicated.

If you add some apps to add flavor, just put them in data/app so that people who hate them can just uninstall them :) Putting new system apps in is cool too just make sure they'll be used.

These are just my preferences though and you don't have to listen to them lol.


I forgot to test the enhanced audio out. Whoops. I recovered from a backup to the stock rom and I'm seriously missing those white status bar icons already

The problem I am having is when I first try to connect to my WiFi it appears to be stuck at obtaining an IP address, if I reboot it will show its connected however it flashes between connected to obtaining an IP address very quickly and never actually connects. Its a very weird issue lol.

I am facing same issue. WIFI icon flickers.. and wifi just connect, reconnects forever. even restarted and tried airplane mode trick..

There are some apparent bugs. It seems restarting the phone alot changes a lot of things

WiFi is not working. It is either stuck on Obtaining IP address or flickers between Connected and Obtaining IP address or says Connected but there is no internet. I tried with both 2.4ghz and 5ghz.


Airplane mode has problems too. Holding down the lock button and selecting airplane mode does nothing. And selecting airplane mode in the settings does nothing also. But if I restart it works normally. But if I restart again it not working anymore.

Bluetooth seems to be working. It turns on and off faster than it did in the stock rom.

There is definitely radio control issues with this rom.

About the automatic brightness glitch, sometimes it works sometimes it does not, depending on how many times you restart.

Its a great start though. I would also like the News and Weather app back. I use that alot.

I have to agree about the radio in general. Not really the ROM, but Bluetooth and WiFi doesn't play well together on this phone anyway.

I would have to say it is more than likely an issue with the rom. After flashing with the stock rom and Super R's Stock B06 unmodified and deodexed the wireless and 3g data work without any problems at all.
