The time problem is a known bug on some devices.
Whether teamwin will fix this I don't know.
Thanks for the feedback. I can now at least release it in the development section.

O yes, the joy of 3.0.2-+ is you can flash the theme zips in recovery and they instantly install and change the ui, and yes it fixs the EFS partition, only other change is Recovery's back to not enforcing again.

Because it's temporary storage for data.
It's usually used when flashing something and wiped afterwards. There is really no point in backing it up.

Tried on a5h and it won't work. When I reboot into recovery options won't be shown and phone reboots on its own. Thank you.

What do you mean options wont be shown. What do you see?
Did you ensure to boot to recovery immediately after flashing? This is important.

Can anyone test if this build fixes the time issue.?
Ensure your time zone is correct in twrp settings.
