ChangeLog O5/O6

O5 is for N960F/DS and O6 is for N960N, otherwise both have same changelog as below said

- Based on latest base N960FXXU2ARJ1 (1 sept security patch)

- ROM Tool have following changes

Fixed Ad-Free issue, ROM default is ad-free with adaway

Dual SIM + SD card hack is now optional (ROM Tool - Mods & Fix)

Xposed Installer is not included but you can manually install from ROM Tool (ROM Tool - Mods & Fix)

Bluetooth pairing fix - ROM default is pre-fixed but in case you install Xposed framework, it may break it. you can fix manually anytime if needed (ROM Tool - Mods & Fix)

New option added to 'NOT to show Important notification' displaying by ROM tool with every reboot. If you disable it then must follow instruction what does it meant for. I recommend to disable only after all initial setup & fully setting up all option of ROM tool.

- OEM issue fix with kernel patch (Still you need, you can flash DrKetan ROM OEM fix immediately after flashing ROM &/or Vendor for double proof (Only who are vulnerable for OEM issue)

- Removed force double tap power to launch camera (Still it will be available in setting if your CSC support it)

- No more micro lag fix required, no more option available in ROM Tool

- All previous version mods available as it is except mentioned above.

- Spay (Gear) working out of box (As per my test), provided you have installed required apps. keep in mind, launch SPay only after hiding "Pay" stuff in magisk

- I have updated to O5 from O4 without Bootloader Modem or Vendor, so if you are uploading from O4 to O5 it may not required, else (or if any issue) recommended to flash it.

- Pro users to update to 1.2.2

Recommended steps to Install ROM

Most experience users have their own setup but for Newbies here I am describing my probable steps to clean install O5

1.If you are on other ROM then better install Bootloader (Available on first page) and vendor provided in download area.

Vendor is TWRP flashable img - Extract to get vendor.img - copy to SD card - select to flash img in TWRP - select vendor.img and flash

2.Factory Reset (without wiping Int storage is fine if you already did it previously) and Install ROM

3.If your device have OEM issue, for double safety, you can flash DrKetan_ROM_OEM fix just after flashing ROM (without reboot in between), this fix recommended whenever you flash ROM and/or vendor.

4.Wait for Reboot device, once device boot check notification for any instruction regarding don't run any app/giving permission

5.Soon you will get option to apply 'Essential Fix' - Apply it and Reboot

6.Open ROM Tool when notification clear from statusbar and select desired option including battery/clock icon selection and again reboot once all set in ROM tool

7.Now connect and install SW related to your accessory like Gear wearable/ VR etc For gear wear, you will auto notify with new gear detected option if you keep gear wear ready with reset.

8.If you are a Pro user, download latest version of Pro and Install it - Reboot after applying Pro features - Set up desired option in Tweaks

9.Now again Reboot device

I recommend clean Installation only. If you are able to handle consequences with dirty flash then proceed, but don't post bugs in forum without clean installing ROM.
