Just linking this to the original thread on HTCmania.

If you're after a fast, lean Stock B199-based ROM with all the bloat stripped out, this is a pretty good option.

Been downloading this just yesterday from HTCmania, just didn't have the time to try it out yet.

Seems like a good alternative to ShockeyCzTs repack without having to remove the bloat.

Will give it a try ASAP.

[Guest dus40]

I've tried it for some days, one of the best stock based rom. stable, fast, smooth, no system app to remove and nova launcher by default, all that i want !

[Guest Yrmiö]

Looks good. Gonna try this coz I get random reboots on CM based roms.

[Guest dus40]

yes, i like cm based rom too, but i had too many reboots and bugs (camera, torch). It's just boring when you have to take photo and your camera crashes or your phone reboot !!!

[Guest GAI4000]

I will download it now, just becouse battery percentage :)
 

[Guest Yrmiö]

I've been using this since yesterday and everything works great! Good battery backup and no lags. 

[Guest GAI4000]

Is there anyway to reduce vibration strenght? Anyone?

[Guest Michael Roscowe]

So does this come with gapps or should I flash on top?

[Guest scrubba]

gapps are included. I'm running this rom and it's great. Moved from stock 199

[Guest Michael Roscowe]

I've used all the cm ROMs and couple others and had some problems with 504 error in play store but sorted an now running smooth :-) wonder now if there's a thread somewhere with a list of mods & tweaks for a stock based y300 rom

[Guest GAI4000]

i want to try that out also. Is there any way to change status bar icon collors?

[Guest Gliwusss]

i think that you can do it by Gravity Box module for Xposed Installer for example :)

[Guest CyberArtZ]

Does this ROM Support 720p video recording?

[Guest fricy81]

Does this ROM Support 720p video recording?

None of the roms support 720p recording properly, the hardware is not powerful enough. Some have this option, but it's lagging and unusable. Not worth it.

[Guest Ez Pez]

OK, one stupid question: Is there any way to remove battery percentage?:))

[Guest hvy109]

OK, one stupid question: Is there any way to remove battery percentage?:))

Change ro.config.hw_battery_percent to false in build.prop.

Greetings!

I'm having a hard time deciding between this ROM and Fusion. By the way, will installing Cexxel's expanded ram kernel improve the performance at all? 

 

Thanks for the link by the way. 

[Guest demez]

FusionX has more customization but I find this rom has less bugs. With FusionX my wifi would drop randomly from time to time, haven't had any issues with this rom. And yes Cextel kernel improves performance with either rom.

[Guest tadopogi]

currently using this rom.

 

so far so good!

 

wifi is perfectly working and the nova launcher is a great compliment to the "stockness"  of this rom.

Do you know how to disable "power saving mode" alert (when 30% battery) ? thx

[Guest fonz93]

Do you know how to disable "power saving mode" alert (when 30% battery) ? thx

with rom toolbox, if you edit service property on systemUI.apk, you can disable the powersavingservice (something like that)

[Guest dus40]

thanks. Is there any build.prop command to do that ?

[Guest fonz93]

thanks. Is there any build.prop command to do that ?

 

try to set "false" in this line: ro.config.hw_power_saving
