Almost stock CM6.1 with some usability apps
Kernel from latest git standard
Download: Link removed pending warez removal from ROM
This is the way to customize an official build to a hd2 nand build
No hackery, no tricks, the way its meant to be done
You can extract it alongside CM 6.1 for desire and do a folder diff to see how to adapt a desire ROM for the HD2
Basically what i used since 03. Oct for testing Magldr, continuously updated when a new CM release is out

Code:
Rajko's CM 6.1 NAND ROM for HTC HD2
===========================
Based on CM 6.1 official stable for the HTC Desire.
This is a continuation of the NAND ROM i was making for earlier MAGLDR builds.
Very close to CM 6.1 stock, but added additional applications for convenience, these are:
- Wifi Manager
- Quadrant Benchmark Advanced
- TasKiller
- Network Speed
- Current Widget
- Market Enabler
All applications should be up to date as of 03.01.2010.
1. Installation
===============
MAGLDR 1.10 or newer is required on the device.
Before starting the installation process, enter "USB Flasher" mode on the device
by using the Volume rocker switch to select items and the green "Call" button as the Enter key.
2. Known issues
==============
Magnetometer left/right doesn't seem to be working. Don't know what broke this. Investigating.
Due to old QDSP, camera is still the stock 800x480 of HD2.
3. Post installation notes
==============
You can change the kernel to a newer/custom version by doing the following:
Connect via USB to your HD2 while Android is running.
Spawn an ADB shell
Do the following commands as superuser:
mkdir /tmp/boot
mount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock0 /tmp/boot
After that, you can replace the zImage that's located in /tmp/boot
When you're done, you have to unmount the boot partition, like so:
umount /tmp/boot
Restart your device to use the new kernel.
well done Rajko, will try your build.
thanks!
please Screenshot Thanks
great! will try!
Oh, first one build for Jan 3
Downloading ....
I have try a bit.
Very fast build indeed
230 mb free storage
Mobile data ok
Wifi ok
Just see until now a issue, the phone dial, dont like i typing the numbers very fast, if i do that the dial freeze for a second and the call slow to start.
Aparte of that i like the build and Tomorrow will test more this baby.
awesome..will test it
but umm..hush..hush..you might wanna take out quadrant advance =P
the normal quadrant is useless because the cpu score varies so much, so the total score isnt really indicative of anything
with advanced people can compare the individual scores, the ones that matter like IO and 2D/3D
does this kernel include WiFi fix (dynamic mac address). what governer does it use?. What about after call 60mA issue?
just FYI, if you put quadrant advanced, the mods will remove links.
it's commit 4c31f2fb265ae68b82ed5e8ea4bec91208837011 so yes
60mA is because of too recent toolchain, that was never a problem with this as i used 2010q1 since forever
60mA may happen if GPS is on, turn it off using the power control widget when you don't need it
camcorder force close
anyone else having random force closes when running camcorder? camera itself runs ok when taking pictures though...
aside from above issue, the nand/build is running great
Also,
i seem to have forgotten how to enable volume control (when playing music) even when the screen is locked/turned off? I can't find it under cyanogenmod settings
thanks

is step 3 necessary...wat does step 3 do??? and how do u perform step 3...i don't know "spawn an adb shell" means...and replace zimage in /tmp/boot with what???
Please can someone upload the CyanogenMod Wallpaper images of this Version ?
Or where I can find it with root explorer ?? Thanks
step3 is if you dont like my kernel, as it says in the readme.
is t-mobile US mms working?

Step 3 is for changing the kernel. This step is not required unless you are swapping kernels.
Upload is awfully slow compared to other nand build....I was getting avg of 1.5mbps.....with this build I get 400kbps...

1.fix long stuck on 2nd-M
2.[port from MS1][QUOTE]added options to limit max CPU frequency when screen is off and when phone is in car dock
(When the phone is in car dock it can easily overheat as there is usually: heavy navigation app running, gps in use, battery charging, 3g in use, sun shining directly at phone behind front car window. All this together can lead to battery temperature rising above 50C at which point the charging is automatically stopped to prevent battery damage and you can end up with phone battery empty after some time despite phone being connected to charger. So the CPU freq limit for car dock is there to help with this temperature issue.)[/QUOTE]

hello friend I want to thank him for the first rom (use forum cyanogem 7 ice Crean theme in android development) she is wonderful but what I could tell her and that led in the device options options is not working and my battery falls a lot when I'm using network data or playing some game ... any idea about it? I apologize for my horrible english because I'm using google translator
Sent from my MotoA953 using xda premium
I think this topic is no longer needed most.
Please a moderator to review it.
Thank you.
What?? How can you say it? Endless7 created it yesterday and you say it's no more needed... What rights do you have to make that decisions? *facepalm*
SlimKat 4.4 for Canadian Samsung Galaxy S2 HD LTE (SGH-I757M)
Code:
[COLOR="red"][B][SIZE="4"]*** Disclamer ***[/SIZE][/B]
THIS ROM IS FOR THE CANADIAN SGH-I757M ONLY... DO NOT FLASH IT ON ANOTHER DEVICE!
By flashing this ROM, you are voiding your phones warranty (Unless you return it
to complete stock which is possible, but beyond the scope of this thread). You
also agree that I will in no way be held responsible in the event that your
device becomes bricked (Not likely to happen). In addition, you are responsible
to take the necessary backups of your apps, data, sms, contacts, calendar events, etc.
If you agree, then please continue on ;)[/COLOR]
Code:
[COLOR="red"][B][SIZE="4"]*** NEW RECOVERY REQUIRED ***[/SIZE][/B]
Due to the addition of user control in CM10.1/CM10.2/CM11.0, you are required to update
your recovery to a supported recovery with a version greater than 6.0.39. As of this writing, the latest available
version is Philz Touch Recovery 6.57.9 (based on CWM 6.0.5.1) for the SGH-I757M. There is currently not a
version of regular CWM for this device that will flash Kit Kat ROMs.
If you flash the new ROM with the old incompatible recovery, you risk loosing
your sdcard under a bunch of subfolders.[/COLOR]
Code:
[COLOR="red"][B][SIZE="4"]*** NEW RADIO FIRMWARE REQUIRED ***[/SIZE][/B]
As of CM10.1, ICS radios (I757MUGLH2) are no longer supported. You must download the new JB radios (I757MUGMC5).[/COLOR]
Introduction
It's finally here :-D SlimKat (Android4.4.x) for the Bell Canada Samsung Galaxy S2 HD LTE (SGH-I757M). There is a lot to be said about Kit Kat with it's clean white icons and new launcher. The focus with Kit Kat was to make the device use less RAM and imrove performance, and so far it's running great. Art seems to be fully functional in SlimKat and the device runs smooth ;-)

What Works
* Phone
* Wi-Fi
* Mobile
* GPS
* Bluetooth
* SMS/MMS
* Data Usage
* Camera (Camcorder doesn't work right now. Don't select it or you'll mess up the camera all together)
* BLN Notification (Enabled in Advanced Device Settings)
* VM Notification
* Youtube Overlays
* init.d is fully supported
* USB Mass Storage (UMS mode)

What Doesn't Work
* I experienced an incompatibility with some of my existing mp4 media files and when gallery tries to load them they cause a soft reboot. Loading these videos into the gallery media player using a 3rd party file manager seems to work without issue, it is the loading of the preview in gallery that causes the phone to crash.
Solution: The solution is to use a file manager to move the mp4 files to a new directory and add a ".nomedia" file to that directory so that when browsing photos in the gallery, it does not try to load the offending mp4 files.
* Not only does the camcorder not work, but selecting it will cause the camera to not function at all, so be careful not to select camcorder. There is currently no fix if you accidentally select camcorder mode, so be careful or you may need to reflash the ROM to get the camera working again. I'm working on a solution that will at least not put it into this loop for now.

Changelog
Code:
[B]November 26, 2014 - Build 20141126[/B]
* Increased kernel version to Titanium 1.1.1
* Added cpu input boost framework - credit: sultanxda
* Added cpu OC (The scale goes up to 1890MHz, but you should only put it as high as 1836MHz since I was getting random reboots with 1890MHz. 1674MHz is the default OC and 1512MHz is the default CM OC) - credit: TeamFahQ/sultanxda/titanic-fanatic
* Added low power flash mode which will use a low powered flash when the battery is equal to or below 35%. This should help with the camera causing the phone to shut down when trying to take pictures using the flash. This threshold may need to be tweaked, so please let me know if you still experience shut downs related to using the camera. - credit: sultanxda
* Added sgs2hdbell as a device name to the updater-script to allow all bell i757m devices to flash the ROM without the need to edit the updater-script.
* Added panel undervolt interface. - credit: sultanxda
* More memory optimizations. Some of the extra RAM that the previous optimization gave us has been allocated to other things such as the surface flinger. Available RAM is now around ~760MB.
* Removed vbus_present wakelock for good (it worked it's way back in somehow)
* Added fast charge. Phone will now charge at 1200mA until 95% regardless of your charging source (AC/USB)
* Added exFAT driver to kernel. It's a filesystem like ext4 but is based on Windows FAT filesystem. You can format your sdcard as exFAT as it's supposed to be faster than vFAT which is what our sdcards are formatted as. Make sure you backup your sdcard contents before formatting it as exFAT and keep the backup until your sure you want to stick with exFAT.
* Removed NFC since I don't think anyone uses it and can't figure out how to have it disabled by default so it is removed completely. If someone is using NFC, let me know and I'll add it back but for now, I just see it as a battery drain.
[COLOR="Red"][B]NOTE:[/B] With the overclocking of this kernel, all antutu tests passed up to 1836MHz. At 1890MHz, antutu caused the phone to reboot during the String Sort tests. This is so far the only thing that has caused reboots, but there may be other actions that will cause this too. If you find that your device is randomly rebooting, turn the overclock down by one step (ie: from 1836MHz to 1782MHz which is one step lower). Then go back to using your phone normally. If you still get random reboots, keep turning the OC down until it doesn't happen anymore.[/COLOR]

FAQ
Q. How do I install SuperSu?
A. Install the latest version from the market. Then open SuperSU and when it asks you to update the superuser binary, answer yes and make sure you select the "TWRP/CWM" method. This will reboot your phone into receovery where the superuser binary will be updated and the su daemon script added. Reboot your phone and you should be rooted.
If your having difficulties getting SuperSu installed, try downloading the flashable zip and manually flashing it to your phone.
UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zip
* Thanks to @formercontra for this tip *
* Make sure this is the way in which you want to manage superuser permissions as I have not yet found a way to revert to the integrated superuser without having to re-flash the rom
Q. How do I access Developer Options?
A. Go to Settings -> About Phone and scroll to the bottom. Press the Build number 7 times to activate the Developer Options.
Q. I was browsing my pictures/videos in the gallery and my phone rebooted?
A. This seems to be caused by the gallery trying to generate a preview from the first frame of an mp4 created on older versions. Simply move the mp4's to a different directory with a file manager and add a ".nomedia" file to the folder to stop the gallery from trying to scan them. To open them, open with a filemanager and then select the gallery media player and it will play without issue.

Logcat what is it and how do I get one?
A logcat is the system log of events that occur on your device. This log provides the developers with some useful information pertaining to crashes and other bugs you may encounter while using the ROM and/or apps running on the ROM. Getting a logcat is generally a very simple thing. Just open your terminal emulator on your phone and type the following commands without typing the $ as it denotes a command on the command line:
$ su
$ logcat -v long > /sdcard/logcat.txt
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The first command above will ask you to grant superuser permission to the terminal emulator which you must accept. The second command will create a file at the root of your sdcard called logcat.txt and then start writing the logs to this file. Since the logcat is a continuous function, your terminal emulator will not return you to the command prompt after the second command as it will continue to write logs until you stop it by pressing the x to close the emulator.
If you are experiencing an issue with an app, then you need to do the steps above to get the logcat recording, then press your home button so that you don't close the emulator, but put it in the background. Then you do the action that causes the bug to occur and then open the emulator and terminate it to stop the log from writing. this ensures that the error is located somewhere around the end of the log and makes it easier for us to spot
What is dalvik-cache and why do I need it?
To explain dalvik cache, you must understand how an app is pieced together. An apk (android app) is like a zip file and contains a bunch of files inside. Two important files to note are the resources.arsc and the classes.dex files. They are compiled versions of the resources (images, sounds, xml files) and classes (source code files) of the app. When android boots into a ROM for the first time, and everytime you install an app, the system performs an optimization called dex optimization which means that is pulls the dex file out of the app and places it into what is called your dalvik cache. The system can then pre-load these dex files and allow the app to start quickly.
Dalvik cache is stored in two locations, at /data/dalvik-cache for user apps and at /cache/dalvik-cache for system apps. We unfortunately have a very small partition for /cache, only 100MB and this sometimes causes a side effect on first boot where it fills up to much with apps that only ever run on the first boot to setup the system and then other dex files cannot be written to the /cache partition which causes them to Force Close (FC). The trick in this situation, is to bear through the FC messages to get the system to the home screen, then reboot into recovery and Wipe Dalvik Cache from the Advanced sub-menu. This will delete all the dex files in both locations I mentioned above and will force the system to regenerate them upon reboot, and this time, those 1-time running apps don't start up and don't end up being optimized which allows the necessary dex files to be created for the apps that were FC'ing.
I have moved what I could from the system partition to the data partition to spare some extra space on /cache but this still sometimes happens, especially as the ROM's get slightly bigger every new major version.

This is definitely due to the build type, but this roms build.prop already has the build type set to user. Did you do a clean flash if you came from another rom? Did you modify the build.prop at all before this happened?
Your build.prop editor needs root access and by default, this rom is set to root for adb only. You can change that in the developer options to allow both apps and adb to gain root. Then your build.prop edits should stick.
I'm still confused how you have a build.prop with build type set to eng though since the build type is set to user in my rom. My Best guess is that you came from rukusx7's hellkat rom and didn't wipe before you flashed this one. That would save your system files and maybe cause some conflicts which might explain your issue with the dialer. My suggestion to you is to always wipe/factory reset when flashing new roms. This will minimize the potential for problems.

*** Disclamer ***
THIS ROM IS FOR THE CANADIAN SGH-I757M ONLY... DO NOT FLASH IT ON ANOTHER DEVICE!
By flashing this ROM, you are voiding your phones warranty (Unless you return it
to complete stock which is possible, but beyond the scope of this thread). You
also agree that I will in no way be held responsible in the event that your
device becomes bricked (Not likely to happen). In addition, you are responsible
to take the necessary backups of your apps, data, sms, contacts, calendar events, etc.
If you agree, then please continue on

*** NEW RECOVERY REQUIRED ***
Due to the addition of user control in CM10.1/CM10.2/CM11.0, you are required to update
your recovery to a supported recovery with a version greater than 6.0.39. As of this writing, the latest available
version is Philz Touch Recovery 6.57.9 (based on CWM 6.0.5.1) for the SGH-I757M. There is currently not a
version of regular CWM for this device that will flash Kit Kat ROMs.
If you flash the new ROM with the old incompatible recovery, you risk loosing
your sdcard under a bunch of subfolders.

What Doesn't Work
* I experienced an incompatibility with some of my existing mp4 media files and when gallery tries to load them they cause a soft reboot. Loading these videos into the gallery media player using a 3rd party file manager seems to work without issue, it is the loading of the preview in gallery that causes the phone to crash.
Solution: The solution is to use a file manager to move the mp4 files to a new directory and add a ".nomedia" file to that directory so that when browsing photos in the gallery, it does not try to load the offending mp4 files.

* Updated Advanced Device Settings to work with the new Enhanced BLN driver
* Add kernel tab to Advanced Device Settings for kernel control settings
* Moved panel UV setting to kernel tab in Advanced Device Settings
* Removed ROMStats and CarbonDelta since we don't use them and they only consume battery and network bandwidth
* Increased vmalloc size from 400MB to 512MB - credit: sultanxda
* Add Dynamic System Bars from Paranoid Android ROM
November 21, 2014 - Build 20141121
* Increased kernel version to Titanium 1.1.1
* Added cpu input boost framework - credit: sultanxda
* Added cpu OC (The scale goes up to 1890MHz, but you should only put it as high as 1836MHz since I was getting random reboots with 1890MHz. 1674MHz is the default OC and 1512MHz is the default CM OC) - credit: TeamFahQ/sultanxda/titanic-fanatic
* Added low power flash mode which will use a low powered flash when the battery is equal to or below 35%. This should help with the camera causing the phone to shut down when trying to take pictures using the flash. This threshold may need to be tweaked, so please let me know if you still experience shut downs related to using the camera. - credit: sultanxda
* Added sgs2hdbell as a device name to the updater-script to allow all bell i757m devices to flash the ROM without the need to edit the updater-script.
* Added panel undervolt interface. - credit: sultanxda
* More memory optimizations. Some of the extra RAM that the previous optimization gave us has been allocated to other things such as the surface flinger. Available RAM is now around ~760MB.
* Removed vbus_present wakelock for good (it worked it's way back in somehow)
* Added fast charge. Phone will now charge at 1200mA until 95% regardless of your charging source (AC/USB)
* Added exFAT driver to kernel. It's a filesystem like ext4 but is based on Windows FAT filesystem. You can format your sdcard as exFAT as it's supposed to be faster than vFAT which is what our sdcards are formatted as. Make sure you backup your sdcard contents before formatting it as exFAT and keep the backup until your sure you want to stick with exFAT.
* Removed NFC since I don't think anyone uses it and can't figure out how to have it disabled by default so it is removed completely. If someone is using NFC, let me know and I'll add it back but for now, I just see it as a battery drain.
NOTE: With the overclocking of this kernel, all antutu tests passed up to 1836MHz. At 1890MHz, antutu caused the phone to reboot during the String Sort tests. This is so far the only thing that has caused reboots, but there may be other actions that will cause this too. If you find that your device is randomly rebooting, turn the overclock down by one step (ie: from 1836MHz to 1782MHz which is one step lower). Then go back to using your phone normally. If you still get random reboots, keep turning the OC down until it doesn't happen anymore.
September 10, 2014 - Build 20140911

* Thanks to @formercontra for this tip *
* Make sure this is the way in which you want to manage superuser permissions as I have not yet found a way to revert to the integrated superuser without having to re-flash the rom
Q. How do I access Developer Options?
A. Go to Settings -> About Phone and scroll to the bottom. Press the Build number 7 times to activate the Developer Options.
Q. I was browsing my pictures/videos in the gallery and my phone rebooted?
A. This seems to be caused by the gallery trying to generate a preview from the first frame of an mp4 created on older versions. Simply move the mp4's to a different directory with a file manager and add a ".nomedia" file to the folder to stop the gallery from trying to scan them. To open them, open with a filemanager and then select the gallery media player and it will play without issue.

Here are my settings for the color/gamma controls!
Color:
Red -> 60%
Green -> 45%
Blue -> 45%
Gamma:
Red -> 0
Green -> -5
Blue -> 5
Why does the color/gamma controls get set to a value other than what I've set?
This is something I have not yet resolved, but I have noticed that it seems to jump up by 5. So if you want 50% for example, try setting it to 45%.
Logcat what is it and how do I get one?
A logcat is the system log of events that occur on your device. This log provides the developers with some useful information pertaining to crashes and other bugs you may encounter while using the ROM and/or apps running on the ROM. Getting a logcat is generally a very simple thing. Just open your terminal emulator on your phone and type the following commands without typing the $ as it denotes a command on the command line:
$ su
$ logcat -v long > /sdcard/logcat.txt
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The first command above will ask you to grant superuser permission to the terminal emulator which you must accept. The second command will create a file at the root of your sdcard called logcat.txt and then start writing the logs to this file. Since the logcat is a continuous function, your terminal emulator will not return you to the command prompt after the second command as it will continue to write logs until you stop it by pressing the x to close the emulator.
If you are experiencing an issue with an app, then you need to do the steps above to get the logcat recording, then press your home button so that you don't close the emulator, but put it in the background. Then you do the action that causes the bug to occur and then open the emulator and terminate it to stop the log from writing. this ensures that the error is located somewhere around the end of the log and makes it easier for us to spot
What is dalvik-cache and why do I need it?
To explain dalvik cache, you must understand how an app is pieced together. An apk (android app) is like a zip file and contains a bunch of files inside. Two important files to note are the resources.arsc and the classes.dex files. They are compiled versions of the resources (images, sounds, xml files) and classes (source code files) of the app. When android boots into a ROM for the first time, and everytime you install an app, the system performs an optimization called dex optimization which means that is pulls the dex file out of the app and places it into what is called your dalvik cache. The system can then pre-load these dex files and allow the app to start quickly.
Dalvik cache is stored in two locations, at /data/dalvik-cache for user apps and at /cache/dalvik-cache for system apps. We unfortunately have a very small partition for /cache, only 100MB and this sometimes causes a side effect on first boot where it fills up to much with apps that only ever run on the first boot to setup the system and then other dex files cannot be written to the /cache partition which causes them to Force Close (FC). The trick in this situation, is to bear through the FC messages to get the system to the home screen, then reboot into recovery and Wipe Dalvik Cache from the Advanced sub-menu. This will delete all the dex files in both locations I mentioned above and will force the system to regenerate them upon reboot, and this time, those 1-time running apps don't start up and don't end up being optimized which allows the necessary dex files to be created for the apps that were FC'ing.
I have moved what I could from the system partition to the data partition to spare some extra space on /cache but this still sometimes happens, especially as the ROM's get slightly bigger every new major version.
First! Running it for a bit thismorning and everything seems great. 1 thing, no halo? Not a big deal with the ribbons but I did like that. Good work! Ill buy you a beer yet my friend!

This ROM is the kats meow. Love the features. After a full days use, no lock ups, lag or random reboots. Its early yet for battery stats but so far with on demand/deadline combo I'm at 62% remaining after 15 hours of average use. One thing of note: From home screen- clicking menu/settings is not functional. Settings from app drawer works as it should. This ROM is now my daily driver. Thanks for the continued support. May the S2 live on!

You can remove the init.d at /system/etc/init.d/91fixoverlays
It will be really speedy after that, but you may still run into some graphics glitching. Possibly enough to cause the kernel to panic and reboot. You can always replace the script at a later time if that becomes an issue.

Took the plunge, just installed this tonight. Hope everything goes well!!
so far ive been lucky (no glitches), but what a speed difference for me. thanks for the info.
Without hw overlays enabled this rom most certainly speeds up. Great job as always t_f.

In my hellkat rom, this is usually green lines that glitch across the screen. I tend to have problems with RR's with Disable Hardware Overlays unchecked.
Have you made any major changes to the kernel to help with hardware overlays?

No actually, so that goes to show that it might not be entirely related to the kernel which I originally thought the case. I'll have to diff cm with carbon to see what differences there are.

Seriously, some devs had given up on fixing project butter, but I always impressed with what titanic_fanatic brings to our device!!! I might switch to this rom if it works so well. I'll do builds with DIABLO or UBER kernel perhaps, Also dont forget the work that TF is doing to his kernel as well. our kernel diff's slightly from the hercules and skyrocket (which mine is based on), and he will likely have a kernel that is tweaked specifically to our device.
Great work @titanic_fanatic!!

With your hw overlays disabled, do you get graphical glitching in the gallery? I get those lines rukusx7 was talking about.
Sent from my SGH-I757M using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Might have just found a really easy fix for the graphics glitching... FACE PALM Only time will tell though. Navigate to /system/lib/egl and edit egl.cfg. you will see this:
0 0 android
0 1 adreno200
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Change this to:
0 0 adreno200
0 1 adreno200
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This will force the device to always use adreno200 for graphics processing. I don't get those wavy lines in gallery anymore with hw overlays enabled, and I haven't had any screen flickering yet either. Not sure what this means for battery yet, but this might just be a step in the right direction
Please let me know how this works out for you guys.

Well after 10 hours with your little trick TF the results are positive. No glitches or weird lines through screen. Overlays were unchecked as well. The battery life seems unaffected by the changes in my view. The overlays do not stay unchecked through reboot. I suppose this will be changed if you find this fix to be effective. This is awesome. Thanks once again!

I just applied the egl.cfg fix to your Slim build, removed the init.d script and rebooted with HW overlays unchecked. Improvement was noticed, and no glitching so far.

How to install cm12 (mrsteve) on sp . by @[SIZE="5"]Dammer Martins[/SIZE]
Small tutorial for instalation of the steves build with working camera and wifi:
1-Download the ROM , ramdix fix, stock kernel and root fix
2-Open the ROM zip an push the ramdisk fiz in to system/bin folder
3-Now, put the ROM zip fixed, stock kernel and the root fix in your sdcard
4-Reboot in recovery, wipe data, cache and dalvik cache
5-Install the ROM, the stock kernel and then the root fix
6-Now reboot the system and wait the phone boot up (this take a veeery long time, trust me )
Tips: don't flash the gapps with the ROM instalation and disable the adaptive brightness to make the auto reboots stop.

Fix connectivity problem on CM12.by @noahvt
Hello,
Finally a fix has arrived for android 5.0 which will allow wi-fi data, outgoing calls, ... to work again
Steps:
1: Make sure your device is running android 5.0 by mrsteve555: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xper...8#post56946968
2: root the device by flashing this file: http://download.chainfire.eu/589/Sup...erSU-v2.16.zip
3: Reboot your device and open up terminal emulator
4: type su, press enter and give it root acces
5: type setenforce 0 and press enter
6: WAIT untill the device asks you to enter your sim pin (this means that it worked)
7: turn on wi-fi (it might take a little long to turn on wi-fi though)
8: that's it
9: well not yet there is one step you can do to make it easier to change the selinux state, Download and install this app:https://play.google.com/store/apps/d....selinux&hl=en
10: again make sure your device is rooted
11: open the app and now you can switch between permissive (this mode is the one that fixed the issues) and enforcing (default mode: wi-fi, ... don't work on this mode)
FAQ:
What is not affected (what doesn't work): The camera (can't connect to camera or hot reboot when launching camera app), more?
What is affected (what is fixed): WI-FI, Data (LTE too) Outgoing calls, more?
Do i have to do this everytime i boot my device: Yes for now you do
On what build does it run: mrsteve555's build, there were 2 reports of it not working on bagy's build

The problem will occur if you do this on first flash as itll take a lot longer to boot and the auto brightness forced reboot will kick in before it finishes. Once system is in and auto brightness disabled then install gapps.

Navigation bar and Pie controls
I know when I moved from 4.4 to 5.0 most things that I could get from xposed or custom roms were gone such as pie controls. I've been looking around for ages and I've managed to remove navigation bar using build.prop and adding a highly customizable pie controls app. If anyone wants a tutorial made to hide navigation bar and get pie controls just ask and ill do it
Pie
Keep Pie In Memory
1. Search root explorer in Google play 3rd one down.
2. Open it and press mount R/W ( top of app)
3. Go into root directory and open the folder data.
4. Create new file and name it local.prop
5. Long hold the newly created app and press open in text editor.
6. Add com.android.lmt
This is to prevent android removing the service from memory when it is low.
Remove Navigation Bar
1. Open build.prop located on /system
2. Add qemu.hw .mainkeys = 1 Remember to add a space between either side of the equals or it won't work
3.Do not reboot until you have downloaded LMT launcher
Add Pie Controls
LMT Launcher ( PIe Controls (Not an actual launcher like nova or apex its just called that) )
1. Download the latest apk from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150
2. Open the app make sure autostart is selected
3. Swipe right until you get to Pie.
4.Use these settings ( navigate to the screenshots) it will get rid of the unneeded two extra slots of pie controls
Finally Reboot
If you have titanium backup convert lmt launcher into a system app to integrate the pie controls more into the system
