Instructions

**MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE USING AN HBOOT THAT HAS AT LEAST 240MB ON THE SYSTEM PARTITION (STOCK HBOOT WORKS FINE)** (Unless you are using a Slim version)

Recommendations/Requirements:

- A 512mb - 1.5gb ext partition (ext4 recommended) on your sdcard. Use this guide, and this guide only to create the partition. Partitions made using other tools (CWM, Minitool Partition Wizard, etc.) will likely cause issues.

-A somewhat decently functioning brain

Download ROM and GAPPS

Boot into recovery and make a nandroid backup (optional but recommended)

Full wipe

Flash ROM

Flash GAPPS

Wipe cache and dalvik cache

Reboot

Other Info

All in all, this ROM is Cyanogenmod 10.1 with a few graphic changes. It also includes various extra features that have been cherry picked from multiple sources. In addition this ROM is compiled without the use of cchache and only full clean builds are released. This means that it will take longer for me to compile, however it will result in a reduced chance of bugs and maybe even an increase in performance.
