Hi [MENTION=2739548]tamirda[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4947202]_alex74_[/MENTION],

Thank you for keeping alive Phoenix ROMs series and releasing "Phoenix Lollipop" after a long time.. I think Phoenix ROMs have a special place in S4 user's heart, so Phoenix should be in "S4 Lollipop" league. We have many precious S4 developers that are active in S4 developement for the moment, but tamirda has many skills/knowledge and his existence in S4 developement is always appreciated. And having experienced devs as tamirda and _alex74_ is always desired for S4 users.. Because they have a good taste/style of cooking ROMs together.

I just flashed Phoenix v11 with a "clean flash" yesterday and i am still playing with it to see all its features. And i want to state that i haven't installed Xposed Installer yet. After i set all my preferences in the phone i will make a nandroid backup then i will install Xposed after it just in case.

And i want to share my review about the ROM:

1- I can confirm it is fast, stable and as some other members mentioned before, it includes many phone customization options in "PhoeniX Extra". So you don't need some of Xposed Modules to customize your phone. It submits many reach customization options especially for Statusbar & Notification panel.

2- It includes many special features that just could be found in this ROM.

3- I think WITH a CLEAN FLASH the ROM is stable as expected and you would not encounter with any major bugs.

THE BUGS THAT I HAVE ENCOUNTERED SO FAR:

1- As many of users reported;

"Settings --> Battery" give FC.

(But _alex74_ has already noted it, so no need a further info.)

2- In "Settings --> Personalization --> Accessibility" under "Services" i can't turn on apps's services. For example the services of "Greenify, "All in one Gestures", "Nova Launcher" apps. When i try to turn on their services, it gives FC. (Look at picture-1 below)

3- In "Settings --> PhoeniX Extra --> Buttons and Display --> Customize Buttons --> Left Capacitive Key --> Set Left Key" i set left key to "Recent Apps" but it seems it doesn't work. The "Longpress Left Key" to "Menu" works BTW. (I haven't tested all other options one by one, so i can just talk about this one.)

4- The "CatLog" app that comes with the ROM as a native app doesn't work for me. (I don't know if it is just on my side). I launch it, it also grants SU Permissions, but it doesn't list any process. The "progress circle" keeps turning constantly, but it doesn't list any process. (Look at picture-2 below) Because of this reason i can't attach any "Error Logs". BTW i have tried with some other "Log" apps, but they also don't work.

-- Some users reported FC in "Settings --> Network connections --> Data usage", but I DON'T HAVE that issue.

-- I have chosen S6 Keyboard in AROMA, so I DON'T HAVE FC with keyboard.

SOME LITTLE SUGGESTIONS:

1- As [MENTION=5140419]radz.min[/MENTION] stated before, i think 3Dot Menu option would be a good choice for the ROM. Because especially some S6 apps, in generally all apps looks better with 3Dot Menu option. (Just a suggestion)

2- Some apps that comes with the ROM as a native system app have the older versions of themselves and they need to be updated to newer versions. (Just a suggestion)

3- As i see it has "Add call" option instead of "Record Button" in dialer. Is there an option in the ROM to make it enabled or should we use another methods apart from ROM?

Apart from these, the ROM is good, stable, fast and could be use as a daily driver. It has many "distinctive" features that just could be found in this ROM and just from [MENTION=2739548]tamirda[/MENTION] & [MENTION=4947202]_alex74_[/MENTION]'s skills.

I suggest S4 users to flash it WITH A CLEAN install if they want to enjoy Phoenix ROM's all beauty. ;)

Thanks again for the update and keep up the good work.. [emoji106]
