How to Flash

- Better Wipe Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache (Must WIPE/Factory Reset if you are flashing Lollipop from KitKat or flashing KitKat from Lollipop);

- If you don't like the Stock kernel. flash any other kernel you like, while you must unlock your bootloader at first;

- Boot up.

Notice & Tips

[Unknown Date]: C6802 will get no modem(signal), pls be aware of that, if someone can fix this Problem, pls tell me, Tks.

[Unknown Date]: For C6802 users, if you got no modem(signal), try to flash the the package here built by wtfhax, wish it will help you.

[2015-04-25]: New ROM with kernel inside may got some problems with bootting up phones, pls be careful. Resolvent: flash the ROM without the kernel and then flash another kernel manually(like DooMKernel or Stock Kernel from Stock ".ftf" ROM with Flashtool).

[2015-04-26]: C6802 Lollipop users pls flash the modem above if you got no signal with your devices(someone tested the signal is OK on C6802).

[2015-04-30]: C6802 Lollipop users pls flash the modem here if the modem above doesn't work.

[2015-05-17]: There is no content change in the A, B, C series, and you do not have to flash it again if you have falshed successfully before.
