Can anyone reading this post please share a link or any other information regarding this help. I have the 5110 version note I appreciate all the help I can get.

I forced myself to break away and lightly customize a stock ROM made for a provider. It is the only stock ROM that has stagefright fix which is way cool, and a few other usabililty fixes as well. Must allow security update to patch, it helps correct a few wee bugs.
The big issue... you are forced to keep a new boot loader, and cannot revert to any previous Stock ROM, and must deal with boot loader compatibilities unknown by builders as they have stopped with any new builds .
Downside, the new bootloader effects various Root functions. But newer Super Su, Boeffla utility, and other updated older Xposed modules seem to help with the new boot loader. Plus Default Apps no longer lists, but they can be managed through App Manager.
A custom SecSettings from a Note 2 (S5 varient) will bring back the Default Apps function plus many hidden settings options built in thus latest OEM build.
So, if you want all the bells and whistles, you will have to deal with the bugs, no matter how big or how small.
Now to explain what features I had with Gnabo v8 SE that I don't miss at all.
Mag UX, Tab Keyboard, Spen Air Command, 160dpi, Multi boot menu, and enhanced wallpaper picker.
Features I have and use, and are bug free but need a system UI to use them... tested with a custom Note 2 Secsettings that has some issues because it is a S5 variant and made for Note 2 specifically.
Colorblind, Interaction Control, Face Lock (came with my OEM build), Grey Scale (built in partially with new build, but S3 neo System UI is the key), Apps from a broken and defunct custom ROM for the N5110, Quick Connect 1.6.5.
My issues are minimal, but seem to be plagued by the new boot loader more than the ported apps.
Miracast works best, 3 minutes after reboot. WiFi is not stable after using hooked VPN apps of any type. Disabling WiFi for a minute and re enabling corrects the issue 80% of the time. A reboot may need to be done if WiFi is buggy. Reboots are 75% trouble free. Sometimes you get a fast boot soon after system UI loads, sometimes you get GMS forced closes, and must reboot.
It may be because of Triangle Away not being upgraded to work with newer boot loaders, or SU still needs some tweaks to work around the latest build by Samsung.
If I were stubborn I would stick with Gnabo v8 SE and it's patches and run Boeffla kernel, and just deal with 160dpi. But I am comfy with what I did even though the 75% boot issues and Miracast functionality being effected by WiFi with VPN apps.
I have given options for assistance by ROM builders in copying my ROM for building a unique custom one, but because I am using some apps that may be from a closed off ROM to builders, respect to the owners must be made. So it will be all for personal use at most.
Thanks for the detailed reply. I guess stock with some tweaks here and there isn't that bad afterall

as of late beoffla kernal utility works smoothly with its latest update.
Also I noticed better boot ups, so most of my boot issues are from beoffola utility with the new boot loader.
Plus, I had to manually remove earth, as google's earth app is busted for 218 220 dpi on the new rom. Google pushes that version from play store without installing the busted version. I downloaded he nodpi version and run it, just unable to update it through play store.
Also wifi seems to operate smoother changing from miracast, and vpn apps. again beoffola utility finally has gotten it right, to use on newer boot loaders, and the lastest OEM ROM.

Great job. Installed without any problem. Keep well.
Good
Like it. Runs smooth, everything that is said to work, works. But some bugs, aside that from gr8Nole's CM12. For example, I can't change keyboard, settings just crash when I'm trying to.
UPD: fixed in 21.01 version
net::ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME
I am still playing around with this rom when I have time. So far to my surprise, everything is working nice as it should. The only problem I have come across so far though is when I click certain links, they dont seem to parse/click correctly. Several times when click a URL I get the error: net::ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME An easy way to recreate it is to go to this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053 (SuperSU on XDA) and scroll down and click on the Download: SuperSU on Google Play (free) link while using the rom. I would post it here, but I am typing from a PC right now and have to be quick. The link loads just fine on the PC too. I have done this in the past with 4.4.4 roms and last I recall it was working properly. When searching Google for the error, everything relates to code, which is out of my knowledge. A couple forums with people having issues were all unresolved or were told to restart, but it makes no difference. Now it doesn't do this all the time, but it has happened several times which makes it a small annoyance mostly, and assuming it should not do this at all. Hopefully I am not the only one having this issue and it can be fixed. Let me know if there is any other info I can provide.
Hmmm, I cant recreate the issue here...all links open fine...ibopen everything with chrome....what are you using? I find that some links wont open properly with the stock browser...
Is there no t315 support? I can't find any lollipop ROM for my tab 3 t315
No, sorry...we need the device to build for it...as of now we only have a sm t310 ...
I don't mind testing ROMs if you want to develop some I want lollipop for my device lol
Its not a matter of what you want, or what you are willing to do....I am not the dev....or a dev period...I'm going by what they are telling me to tell you.....no device = no build....blind builds are a pain and headache for devs....sorry
Hey Aries...
Thanks for getting back. I felt like a noob when I realized I was using the stock browser. I just been use to PA gapps in the 4.4.4 builds totally replacing the stock browser with Chrome. Since we are using Banks with Validus, is there some way I can manually inject or replace the stock browser with chrome? If it is a pain in the ass or not possible, is there a way to remove the stock browser once Chrome is installed? The same situation applies with the Nova launcher. I slightly prefer the Apex launcher and have the pro version on Google play. In the 4.4.4 roms, I was able to use Root uninstaller to remove leftover stuff I will never use in 4.4.4 roms, but it fails to remove it in LP. It is possible the Root uninstaller app isnt updated for LP, and may test some alternatives. It is just a minor issue figure I would ask to see what your thoughts were on it. If I could somehow replace nova and the stock with Apex and Chrome so when I flash it, it would be great as it is already there without the extra apps I will not use.
Aside from that I finally had some time to flash the latest build 1/31? and it is nice. I ended up doing a clean install since I was not vested much into the previous build anyway. When going through the primary setup, typing the Google account name, etc. It closed unexpectedly and told me it did, but it was at the end. Not sure if it was just a hiccup, but it saved my info from what I can tell and still works great. The dark theme is a perfect fit too. I look forward for future updates and will continue to use them.

I keep stock browser and chrome on both my devices but if you want to remove it you can...validus has system app remover built in...go to developer settings and its right at the top....remove whatever system stuff you don't use or want there browser is in there..then reboot...simple....or you can use apps like titanium backup or rom toolbox pro to do the same thing....I prefer rom toolbox as it does tons of stuff....great app to buy...
As for nova you can remove it the same way if you want to....or just install apex and set it as your default launcher under Home in settings menu...

Testing & Maintenance of Validus roms for Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 SM-T311
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 SM-T311.
And I am always ready to experiment on my tab.
So i can test the roms developed for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 SM-T311 and find the bugs and can maintain Validus for this device but i cant build the roms.
And i am also ready to learn how to develop a rom if you people are ready to teach me.
So please develop this great rom for this device model also.
Thank You.

Crashing of System UI
The ROM's quite smooth till now, except for the crashing of the System UI whenever the theme is changed.
It's a minor issue and can be considered a negligible one. Other than this, I find the customization options a bit limited than what the other ROMs like SpiritRom (for v4.4), offered.

Nice port, only chrome is a bit bugy and a game like crossy road does no t work.
Hi there and thank you for checking this thread out, Alrighty let's get started.
So, I own the Sprint G920P Samsung S6 Phone and since i've been used to the stock version of the rom with hardly any tweaks i took a huge step into rooting it and losing KNOX.
Which wasn't entirely a big deal to me and so i took even more procedures to boost it furthermore into this nice tweaking world of Custom Settings.
So, i'd like to know what are your best settings to make this phone become its top notch self.
I have a few Things running on my device and i'd like a comparison or if you might have any suggestions or tips that i could probably end up using. ^-^ anything helps.
--My specs ---
Correct me if i may be wrong or if i am in need of an updated version for this Rom i'm running or the settings, i have pre downloaded.
I'm currently running on G920P
OL1 Rom ( basically stock then to become) (rooted)
I'm also running Twrp 2.8.7.0
BETA SuperSU 2.67
used CF-Auto-Root-zerofltespr-zerofltespr-smg920p.tar to continue with i, everyting works fine
and then commenced flashing the hacker-kernel-SM-G920P-V12-su_266
but i have no idea what tweaks to do for the kernel considering , im still a n00b to that part or aspect but i have the basics of flashing and installing drivers running some twrp stuff.
i also have XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4
with this only working flashed file that worked for me
xposed-v75-sdk22-tw-arm64-custom-build-by-wanam-20151008
i used Xposed for Snapchat, Youtubes Adaway and Xinstaller for apps
My configuration.
Snapchat -
9.17.1.0
Xposed -
75 wanam 20151008 - seems to work best for me on both roms instead of v79.
Snapprefs -
1.6.2
is there anything i could do to upgrade or change the following? i use my phone mostly for listening to music, streaming videos and taking pictures or videos in 1080p60 or uhd with the cinema 4k app every now and then and my battery drains fast.
Welcome to The Arko Project
About The Arko Project: I first started this project on the LG G5 when development was still slow for that device. That version as well as a version for the LG G Stylo was never released publicly due to image burn from a botched deodex attempt, and coffee respectively. I had been on the forum's for a while at that point, and seeing the amount of devices being locked down was worrying to me. I wanted to give back to the community in some small way of my own. While learning as much as possible along the way. While also helping others do the same. I haven't had any formal education in programming or android. just what I've managed to pick up, and learn (I still am learning). It has been a long journey (as well as a humbling one), but it is not over yet. Nor do I believe it ever will be for me. There is always more to learn. That said I test run every build to make sure it's stable, and reliable before releasing.
However as with any Modification to your device: Your warranty will voided, and I am not responsible for direct or indirect damage to your device(s), and no warranty of any kind is given, or implied. You flash this rom or any other modifications linked in this thread at YOUR OWN RISK.
please read all installation instructions, and warnings. It also wouldn't hurt to read through the thread if anyone had posted.
I couldn't have dreamed of this being possible without the help of these great members of our community
@SuperR. (For his Amazing work with SuperR's Kitchen) @HPTesla for giving me tips, and information as to getting started) @Chainfire (For SuperSU) @bcrichster (For help with ota's)@cesarandres_8911 (For encouragement, and help with adding rounded corners)
If I by chance forgot anyone please let me know, and I'll add you to the op.

Notes
1*Deodexed: I did not personally deodex this rom, nor do I know if the Stock rom was even odexed. I pulled the system/boot images from my phone running 30d after downgrading from 30e to gain root. (If someone could enlighten me on this matter I would be grateful.) Edit: Rom was deodexed from oem.

Lookout
3*Integrated apps: Xposed Installer, SuperSU, and Adaway all have their launcher icon removed. I have no idea if an update will break that (Although my guess is probably) SuperSU however remains in the launcher as well as in settings. So if you don't want to see it then you'll have to hide it manually for now. SuperSU should now be hidden also. (Adaway is version 57. I got an error recompiling version 60. You can update manually if you like, but it will probably break the hidden launcher icon.)
4*Custom Boot Animation: Please be forgiving. I have very, very little graphic design experience, but managed to pull something that I think looks halfway decent that was made frame by frame, and took a considerable amount of time. (Also I ran into an issue with the phone only displaying the images after a couple of folders so there are a couple of empty ones.)
That being said this whole project has taken a considerable amount of time. I like most others work 40+ hours a week. I am open to criticism, as long as it is constructive, and done in a polite way.

Added Apps:
LG Quick Remote (Couldn't find the latest version so it still needs to be updated from "App Updates" in Settings if you want the latest version available for our phones.)
I'll try to see if I can't just add the update apk in the next update, but it's odexed for some reason. I'll see what I can do though.
Consider this a mini test run for updating Gapps and the like. I tried updating Google Play services and the Playstore, but got force closes. So those will still have to be updated manually I plan on updating more apps in furture updates.
Readded:
Chrome
Permissive su.d script (In preparation for hopeful approval to add Viper for android into the rom.)

Awesome thanks for trying it out. Let me know if you have any issues.
I'm probably let the Rom sit for a week, and make sure there isn't anything that needs to be fixed right away. I've xposed installer fc's on boot, but haven't seen one in a while. Either way it still opens, and works fine. I used it to install all my xposed tweaks.
I'll probably start working on a very basic ui theme. Mainly navbar, qs toggles notification shade etc. Then I'll look into the 4 way reboot. I've seen some old sammy threads searching on xda. We'll see if the same principle will work for lg.
Also if anyone would like to help test new builds let me know.
Will also let it sit for awhile and settle in. Preliminary go-through was okay. No issues other than that initial Xposed Installer FC.
Just want to confirm that the Xposed Framework is _not_ installed? Installer said it was not which caused me to get a little confused at first.
Now that I've had a look at what is and is not included I can reflash and setup properly. Essentially the same way as I do Nimax Slim Fit, Tekcafe, and Fulmics.
This is UX4? I forget. Last year I realized the old G3 TweaksBox themes for LP work on MM just fine. I used a few just to liven things up a bit on two ROMs running UX4.

No the framework itself isn't preinstalled. Just the new installer. I'm not sure exactly what you mean by UX4? If you let me know how I can find out. I'll let you know though. Also I never used g3 tweaksbox's theme engine myself, but if it works just let me know. I'm looking at options for managing my future themes, as decompiling, and retheming every one after an update would be tedious. Thanks for the feedback I appreciate it. ?
Sorry about the UX4 questions. Brain is scattered. I forget that some of the stock-based ROMs out there have incorporated the user interface, launcher, and whatnot from elsewhere like the G4 or G5. Also forgetting that Arko is essentially straight stock, debloated. A good thing.
EDIT: The following had all kinds of goodies, mostly G5 compatible stuff with some stock G3 compatible mods. Maybe the dev over there can help out on the theming front.

For a bunch of different samsung mods while searching for info on 4 way reboot. 4wr however is my main focus as having it could save a lot of time rebooting to recovery, and what not. I'm having issues getting a custom zip with a minor colors.xml change to test if that would work vs having to manually edit pngs & 9pngs. It flashes fine but won't boot past the animation.
I probably won't have time to look into it too much this week as I'm going to begin the process of moving, but most of my spare time if not spent working on the rom. Is spent reading about rom related things, and trying to learn as much as I can. Thank guys ?.
Thought I would post an update on the 4 way reboot progress.
I have finally managed to find the right dl links to the latest est smali/baksmali and new commands baksmalied services.jar (formally com.android.policy.jar) and found where to paste the smali resource files. Now as far as I can tell the are rather old. Probably even pre kk not sure. Assuming they work however (Not really expecting it hoping, but not expecting lol). They only issue will be finding the right GlobalAction number for the reboot button. The thread I linked to ealier said something about possibly being able to find it by tracking mreboot (have absolutely no clue.) I'm just gonna try the number listed in the guide,and go from there. If anyone knows how to find it however let me know. Thanks guys. ?
I let my phone go dead last night, and upon recharging my double tap to wake isn't functioning dt2sleep is. As well as google now isn't opening links. It grays slightly, and that's it.
I don't know if they are related, but I'm planning on hopefully releasing a new build with just minor changes. Volume steps mostly. So I may just reflash the boot.img, and see if that helps. If it does I'll make a zip, and post it here in case it happens to anyone.
I know updates have been far, and few inbetween lately. That's because I'm working on some android n dev courses I bought through xda-depot, and having to work a bit of overtime as well.
I haven't given up though just have a lot to do, and too little time to do it in. Lol. Thanks guys.
Edit: I also tried to start it up before charging and it made it to the homescreen with 1% and killed over. So that may also have something to do with it.
Edit 2: I discovered at least one other person was experiencing issues with google now as well, after a few reboots the dt2w starting working just fine. I haven't been able to finish the new build as I'm setting up a new enviroment. Got a desktop pc with a intel core 2 quad cpu 2.4 GHz 2.3GHz
5 gigs of ram, and nvidia quadro fx 570 with 256 mb dvram.
I plan on upgrading this pc quite a bit, but until it exceeds my quadcore laptop. I'll be running linux on my laptop, and windows on the desktop. Now all I need is KVM switch. Once my desktop can handle it I'll probably build with linux on a vm.
In case you're wondering I do all my apk editing/building/coding in windows.
Hey all I was hoping to have a the new build up today, but I haven't been able to make it because after setting up my new desktop the hd went bad so I had to have it replaced. I'm gonna start resetting up tonight when I get off of work. So I'll hopefully have it uploaded by Thursday, or Friday.
Edit: The vm took a little while longer to get set up, but rest assured I'm working on it. I'll get the new build up as soon as I can. Thanks guys.
New build is up guys. Enjoy!

Hi sorry for the late reply. I didn't get a notification, and my computer has been in the shop. Wi fi calling works just fine as far as I'm aware, but let me know if you run into any issues & let me know if you try it out. Thanks!
The loss of my G3's SD slot has curtailed my ROM flashing. No longer able to have half a dozen ROMs running on the phone but I still had enough internal space to try.
TAP runs fine. Data, Bluetooth, WiFi okay. Went through all the settings. All good.
GApps are ancient but that's okay I guess.
Needs some kind of file manager though. I like to setup Google later during ROM testing so I usually need to install certain tools first. Not possible via the ROM's DocumentsUI. I think the only flashable file manager I have is CM's. It might work.
About to flash ROM again with some extras and give 'er a longer test.
Oh, almost forgot. An OTA update of about 75MB came through. Not gonna take it, of course, but was surprised to see it.

So, if anyone can point me to the right direction please do!! I just need a little help to find and maybe make a fix for some problems that I enjoy using from the Emotion OS r22 Rom..
So....after awhile i just gave up and just used the N7 Port instead because I grew tired of.....these issues from Emotion OS and I don't have these in the N7 Ported rom.
====Issues====
Camera Doesn't record in 60FPS or 4K.
Fast Charging doesn't seem to exist in the system , especially when it's selected in the Kernel Auditor.
it reads at Cable Charging, USB Charging but theirs no Fast Charging but I DO see, Charging on AC.
Snapchat Support! - Having to Import Through Titanium, Not every-time but after every install of this Rom if needed be.
Method is to.
Backup the Snapchat Data before hand from a TW Rom that lets me Login, ovbiously because its stock and not rooted it should bypass. OR To Download Snapchat on the Rooted Phone, Uninstall it, Reboot, Login, profit? ,reinstall root.
GPS issues where it eithers locates but doesn't navigate well, doesn't lock, or doesn't work at all.
=-=--SMS-=-=-=
*#*#*# SMS FIX *#*#*#
It doesn't work unless I do that *#*#4636#*#* fix
I use an app called "Advanced Signal Status" and I select
CDMA ONLY or CMDA Auto PRL wait for it to switch and then Select LTE/ CDMA Auto PRL, but as
it can be hassle as i have to do this for every reboot.
And that will be if it only works for 5 minutes then i have to do that fix for it or hjust doing this anyways after every reboot...
==========
Just talk ---
=========
All i end up using is Snap,PK GO, Viper 4 Android for Pandora, Spotify, Insta, FB, FB Messenger, SoundCloud, Inkpad, Colornotes, Ifunny, Daily Horoscope, Vaulty, recforge Pro, Scr Pro,Yahoo,Gmail, Drive,Tumblr, teamviewer, Regular music app, and even root explorer as my daily driver. And obivously clearing apps almost immediately when i'm not using it anymore but overall nothing else really. lol And I'm just wishing and hoping for and if theirs a rom like Emotion OS but with Working SMS and MMS and Phone just like the N7 Ported Rom......AS I'm using it right now or aswell as the Camera Ported From the N7 Rom to the Emotion OS Rom.. AS I'm not sure what to do, I want to make a permanent fix or flash able zip instead of having to do the dialer code after every reboot. I was thinking of using the APNS from a working custom rom a.k.a the N7 Port and then trying the Rom after that but I just don't know the information for that, I'm more like the reporting and or reporter and Rom guinea pig lol but I also had wished it would install as fast as the AOSP Emotion OS Rom. But i just yeah I'm not sure, I do have a partition and an extra EFS backup and everythings has been running just fine for me with the N7 Rom.
Do you if anybody would happen to know of a Rom the way I describe it? I am also-up for testings Roms that are in develop as i had made a full list of "Roms in The Graveyard" on my PC but only 2 of them I kept as they are reliable to me for the moment. Stock just doesn't do it for me but deoxdexed has lol and the N7 Port but my phones basically my guinea pig for Rom Testing. and I don't ever use magisk just official Super Su or Super User. but i haven't seen that for along time, since S3 days .lol

How To
[Installation]
Assuming you unlocked your bootloader and have TWRP
IF WIPED SYSTEM/USING AOSP/WANT TO ENABLE SECOND SIM ON G8141
Flash This with a newflasher
CONTINUE:
P.S. Keep a TWRP backup of stock rom on your phone, so you won't need to use newflasher again.
Install this on top of the stock/stock based rom (like Tomahawk Project)
Don't forget factory reset!

FOR MAXIMUM SECURITY:
Keep it simple, without ROOT
Install F-Droid and explore open source world. Download APK and send it to your device. I removed browser, pick your own
At your own risk:
If you want download apps from playstore anonymously, try Aurora Store
Want to get accurate Network location and some of the Google apps working properly, then install this Magisk Module
To get Network Location working, signature spoofing is needed. You'll need this or this edXposed module
If you think my work was for nothing:
Install Gapps and never visit this thread again

Privacy made Easier
Let's find a balance between security and ability to use apps which we have to.
Most of us have people who use messengers we don't trust, but we still need to communicate with those people.
Another CONCERN is a fact that most of the apps rely on google for push notifications. Google get all the content, no matter how secure your messenger is.
If you don't have Google Services, then you have problems with notifications. Here MicroG will help us.
So, let's make a secure environment for apps we use, but don't trust.
You gonna need:
This rom installed
Magisk + "microG installer Revived"
Shelter
Let's do it!
Open Shelter app and let it create work profile.
Then you need to make sure install some apps in there:
If you install Aurora Store inside Shelter it will allow to easily manage apps from Play Store.
You can clone magisk to shelter( enable multi user in the main app first, then clone) and install firewall inside the shelter.
Update:
Another way is to install vpn inside shelter and enable kill switch. So apps inside shelter only won't have internet access unless you enable VPN.
I use protonvpn, it give 3 countries for free and it's more than enough for average user.
Beware that when VPN is outside of the shelter, on the mainland, apps on shelter will bypass it, so you need to have clients on both. You may have 2 different VPN clients enabled if you need to.
What do we get?
See "Contacts" and "Files"?
Those are seperate from the mainland, so you can just add your relatives' phone numbers and WhatsApp will only see those.
We are LIMITING ACCESS TO FILES AND CONTACTS.
Plus we can easily freeze those apps, or limit connectivity with a firewall, or vpn.
Result:
You can use apps, that brings vulnerabilities or privacy concerns in a locked,controlled environment.
Still receive notifications without sending them to Google.
Or you can try VMOS, at your own risk of course
Short message for each of you.
This rom is a result of a project which aim to strip android back to it's core, so WE CAN BUILD IT THE WAY WE WANT IT. Not the way market researchers say we want it.
In short, this ROM is a prototype of community communication device.
Everyone can join the digital freedom project. I am sure each of us can help a cause.

Not real,but VM
If you set "apply on boot", you will notice that boot animation will become smaller ,but it's the same trickery as adb commands.
g8141 does not work, reboots right after sony logo no bootanimation.
p.s. flashed over .107 stock rom with twrp 3.2.3-0
edit: installation guide is a bit vague, do we MUST flash this? https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=4349826312261694774
It says
IF WIPED SYSTEM/USING AOSP/WANT TO ENABLE SECOND SIM ON G8141
but I didn't wiped system nor using aosp nor want to enable second sim
second edit: Needs few reboots before booting to system, seems to work like intended.
Some suggestions:
Please find a solution to Automatic reboot when sim tray is removed, since I don't use dual sim and switch SD cards frequently it gets frustrating so fast. Thanks in advance.
Qualcomm Device Security still persists on this rom, it has an apk under vendor\app\QualcommTelemetry(?)
Video Enhancement is not working, at least on settings preview.
VERY USEFUL: Show charging current on lock screen, existenz rom had it.
Dark/Full Black System theme
Boot time is unacceptable, it takes around 2 minutes for normal boot, whereas even in a bloated stock it took around 30~ seconds. It is due to your framework changes and deodexing. However, I've been able to restore optimal boot time by changing all frameworks.
@undefine,
Yeah, boot time is longer because because of deodexing. Frameworks are untouched though in this rom.
If you want Video Enhancements, then you need to go back to android 8 and istall drm patch.... Since they fixed the camera on Pie nobody really bothers with other drm related things...
Agree on the dual sim reboot thing, it's annoying, but I have no idea how to disable it for now. If you really don't need to dual sim functionality then you can try flashing this rom on top of G8141 version and make sure you got kernel as well.
Theme is overlay, adding functionality to the lock-screen require modifying services.jar to disable signature (super user mod), both are security risks... You may flash existenz on top and remove what you don't need. At your own risk of course

I think boot time is not because frameworks are changed but some are missing, I just reflashed with everything in stock framework folder, it seems to be blazing fast as normal. I'm actually surprised it booted that fast even with Deodex.
As far as I remember Video Enhancements worked on stock 9 at least on my device, I have my drm keys though since I waited for a proper ta backup. However it is not a must feature either.
I'd rather flash opengapps full package than flashing existenz over this rom . I will look into some other tricks for showing charge current, maybe some xposed module exists?
Anyway, thanks for your contribution to this device. Cleanest stock rom I've ever used (besides one bloat called Qualcomm Device Security which I immediately removed).
