The base is identical but Hamidreza2010 contacted me to inject some mods.
So, this is a stock based ROM and you can use as a pure stock based ROM (Deodex, zipaligned, root and superuser mod) with no modification.
But, you can use it with several mods (Z3 mods, fonts, boot anim, ...) thanks to AROMA. There are a lot of possibilities. I would recommend modded system apps icons .
This ROM is a richest version of my previous baby.

I have been a fan of your customised stock rom. The best pure stock rom according to me and am surely going to try this. Thanx and keep up your good work.

Honestly the amount of customised stock roms are far too saturated but I like how you've made the effort to integrate things such as aroma and update applications here. Keep it up

Yep, you're right. There are a lot of custom ROMS. As I think the stock ones are the best, the addition of the AROMA installer bring something new and more interesting. My advice. Thanks for comment.

For my daily use, there are a lot of additionnal apps (Social apps, third party calendar, weather widgets, ...) and I don't experience any lag.
Maybe it could be a little slower with Z3 ported apps (Redraw of home after a game) but I have not seen nothing with stock home and Z3 systemUI (with ad hoc parameters using Xposed).
Regarding RAM, well...free RAM is wasted RAM and it is well managed.
One more time, this ROM was created to match the needs of users. All is question of compromise...do you want speed, functionnalities, beauty, ... Whatever, you can choose.
Anyway...it is always stable. :good:

I totally agree with you.

As mentionned, it is stock battery life.
Plus, it is a little subjective. Depends on your behaviour with the device.
Do you read mails, surf the Net, play games, answer the phone or SMS?
All these parameters will influence battery life. But, average battery time life in "normal" usage is about a day...like every smartphones.
EDIT : Screenshots added to OP

ok thank you for the response
i sometimes check my mail 3-4 times a day sometimes playing a game
but the most i use is youtube
I had change my governor to wheatley and the i/o to Sio.

I'm sorry, I don't understand well the question.
You want to use the alternative system apps with Lollipop icons?

I didn't noticed that bug.
Maybe you could use Xposed to configure Home or wait for Hamidreza. He should help you about that.

Ok. As there is the SuperUser Mod, you will be able to use whatever application you want as the signature will be ignored.
So, if you find ported Z2 or Z3 apps, it should work on the ROM. As I have not tested, I can't guarantee.

tried installing 3 times from 3 different downloads, Symlink failed on installation ??
Any ideas please.
