Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this ROM work on [insert device name here]?

Answer: This ROM is currently only supporting d2att and partially, d2tmo. If you choose to flash this on any other device, may Android have mercy on your soul.

Q: Why aren't my CM12 themes looking right?

Answer: Theme Chooser is still in its early stages and more and more items are being exposed for theming. So it's possible that some things may not look quite right still when applying a theme. Try going to the default system theme, reboot, apply your CM12 theme, and reboot once more.

Q: When will the next update be out?

Answer: When it's out and the OP is updated. Do not expect nightly builds or even weekly builds. I'm not going to run a build a day when it will make virtually nothing different. When I update, there will be good reason and timing for it. So please, don't ask.

Q: Can I use a custom kernel with this ROM?

Answer: Yes, you may. Though this rom comes packaged with the Shift kernel, you may run other kernels instead. HOWEVER, please pay attention to the troubleshooting section below concerning kernel use.

Q: Can you add [insert feature here]?

Answer: We are always open to feature suggestions. HOWEVER: Keep in mind that feature you have come to love in previous iterations of Android may not be ported forward for use in Lollipop yet. If you see a feature you want, and can point to somewhere that it's being used in a Lollipop rom, then we can definitely look into it. Otherwise, patience young grasshopper.

TROUBLESHOOTING

This ROM is still in the early stages of development, so you can expect some bugs to pop up here and there. Here are some guidelines to remember when reporting bugs to this thread. Please read carefully.

**Before reporting a bug, be sure you have tried the following:

1) If you dirty flashed, go back and clean flash first.

2) If you are running a custom kernel, flash the Shift kernel from the OP and see if that solves your issues.

3) If the issue seems app related, uninstall the app and reinstall from the PlayStore. I won't give any help if your apps mess up from using TiBu. This doesn't constitute a clean install of an app.

4) Read through the thread to see if your issue has been addressed before and if their is currently a solution for it.

BUG REPORTNG

**I WILL NOT LOOK AT BUG REPORTS THAT HAVE NOT TRIED THE PREVIOUSLY LISTED STEPS OR LOGS THAT COME FROM A COMBINATION OF ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE ROM AND THE SHIFT KERNEL COMBO. I WILL ALSO NOT TAKE BUGS FROM PEOPLE WHO HAVE FLASHED THIS ON AN UNSUPPORTED DEVICE**

When you report a bug, be detailed about it. Simply stating "This is not working right" does not help me any at all, and I will probably just ignore the post. Be prepared to grab a logcat if asked or to provide me with the steps to reproduce the issue on my own device. If you don't know how to get a logcat, Google is your friend and there are multiple ways to do so. Also, search the thread, and search it again before reporting a bug, to be sure it hasn't already been addressed. No need to clog the thread with 10 people saying "This isn't working right".

PLEASE REFRAIN FROM PERSONAL GRIEVANCES IN THE THREAD. WE HAVE HAD RECENT ISSUES WITH THIS AND IT HAS BEEN SHOWN THAT IT WILL NOT BE TOLERATED ANYMORE.
