Installation:

Take a look at the updated installation instructions at post #2,

(especially "MultiRom and root")

SuperSU/MultiRom:

This is only relevant on new/fresh installations or if you like to update

SuperSU.

At least on the Nexus 5, new SuperSU versions, (at least 2.66 and 2.67),

will be installed in systemless mode, to force a system mode installation,

fortunately there is a "official" way, (the unofficial "forced" system mode zip

doesn`t work for me, I got a bootloop, (boot animation)),

before installing SuperSU:

if you have access to your device via adb, run:

adb shell "echo SYSTEMLESS=false>>/data/.supersu"

otherwise create a new file at /data : ".supersu", (there must be a " . " at the beginning

and add the line :

SYSTEMLESS=false

From my knowlegde, the adb command won`t work for secondary roms,

because the file will be created at /data of the primary rom,

in theory, the "create file" method will work on secondary roms, too,

of course you have to create the file from your secondary rom.

Some infos about this Update:

System R/W:

In the meantime, I found out, that the "System R/W" bug isn`t a bug of the rom,

but a bug of the (outdated ? ) file manager I used,

so using another file manager solved the issue.

Sorry about this.

Status bar network traffic:

As there are 2 new options, "Show" (normal status bar) and "Show when on lock screen",

there is no need to have a "disabled" option on the network activity list,

("Download", "Upload" and "Download & Upload"),

in my opinion it doesn`t worth the work to "update" the "old" disabled option

to the new "Show/hide" options, which means if you enabled the network traffic,

on the new build the network traffic is disabled/hidden,

so you only have to check 1 switch to get your old "state" back,

(all other options/customizations will stick).

Status bar expanded bars:

As the rom now included bars for mobile-, wifi network and battery status,

there is no need for the mobile-, wifi network and battery icons on the status bar header

when expanded. And that`ll be the time the troubles begin, it`s "easy" to fade out/in the header icons

related to the expanded state, but make this related to the visible bars, too, will be very hard.

It isn`t enough to "only" fade the icons out/in, the icons also have to be moved to prevent

blank spaces, (e.g. only mobile network bar is visible, the wifi icon has to be moved next to the battery icon,

and the mobile network icon has to be fade out, and that`s only on of the possibilities).

Remember back to the header of the 5.X version I spent days/weeks, to get the header content movement/animations

to work as expected.

So the easiest way is to remove the icons at all of course.

All Ideas, opinions, ... to this "issue" will be appreciated and welcome.
