Hi Folks! It’s been a long time since I did a ROM… Like about a year\u00a0<\/span>\"\"
Took a break for a while…<\/span>
Got the S95 Telos and decided it was time to have some fun again.<\/span>
Let me tell you… Much has changed from the hacked up KitKat we had to Lillipop! I had to learn a bunch of new stuff.<\/span>
It took me almost a week in days to get up to speed and be able to really do some things in this ROM.<\/span>
So any donations would be nice especially if you like this ROM!<\/span> WARNING! In order to debloat and clean up this ROM I have to format \/data partition and thus you will loose all your data!<\/span><\/b><\/span>
You have been warned! Please backup your stuff.<\/span>
This R<\/b>OM is for the S95 Telos <\/a>only! Later I may port to the Meta and Pro.<\/b><\/span>
This ROM is based off the S95 Telos 20160129 BETA ROM. I found this to be better and more stable kernel to work with.<\/span> Install instructions:<\/b><\/span> This is a pretty easy install but please make sure you do exactly what I list here.<\/span>
1) Download this ROM (finless_1.0_S95_telos.zip).\u00a0<\/span>DO NOT unzip it!<\/b><\/span>
2) Copy the zip to a SDcard. Make sure it is a good SDcard and not corrupt. If your not sure, format it FAT32.<\/span>
3) Make sure you do NOT have a recovery.img on SDcard that you used for something else. This ZIP is properly signed for the Tronsmart recovery in the box now.<\/span>
4) Go into APPs and run the Update&Backup APP.<\/span>
5) On the right side under “Local Update”, click the select button.<\/span>
6) It should open a list of ZIP files on your SDcard. Select finless_1.0_S95_telos.zip.<\/span>
7) Now click the update button.<\/span>
8) The system will reboot into Recovery but will not show any menus.<\/span>
Also PLEASE NOTE: The stock ROM 20160109 had a bug with the boot logo. So your screen will be black for a while. PLEASE wait for recovery to come up!<\/span>
If you wait longer than about 1 full minute, then something else is wrong. You might have to reflash a stock ROM.<\/span>
9) The green Android man will show up and update the ROM. Do not do anything until it is finished!<\/span>
10) The system will reboot on it’s own and boot the new ROM.<\/span>
Please note, this ROM takes longer to boot the first time than the stock ROM. The reason is it has be Deodex’ed. See below.<\/span> Change Log \/ Features:<\/b><\/span>

1) I have completely debloated this ROM! For those that want to start clean… you have a base ROM to work with!<\/span>
None- of the pre-install APPs are there either. This includes the custom VidON XBMC. You can install that yourself if you want it.<\/span>
2) The ROM is Deodex’ed. I find that this makes the system faster.<\/span>
First boot after flashing takes longer but after that… It is much faster at booting!<\/span>
Watch how fast it boots up after reboots. Barely enough time to see the boot animation\u00a0<\/span>\"\"
Also having a deodex’ed ROM allows ROM tool APPS to be able to do things like theming etc.<\/span>
3) The Google Play Store and Google Framework have been updated to the latest as of this writing.<\/span>
When you boot and login to the Play Store, nothing will need to be updated.<\/span>
4) I added back the AOSP Launcher! Now on first boot you have a choice.<\/span>
Also now in settings you will see a “HOME” item in the menu. You can use this to change the default launcher\u00a0<\/span>\"\"
5) For the AOSP Launcher I added some nice shortcut buttons at the bottom. One that is nice is a quick access to the Advanced Settings menu\u00a0<\/span>\"\"
6) Opened up some settings that were blocked for some reason.<\/span>
7) I fixed the SDcard write and access issues! Not just for Media either but anything!<\/span>
I tested this as much as I could so let me know.<\/span>
8) Did some small tweaking to buffers so you may see better Wifi performance.<\/span>
9) This ROM is rooted fully and properly! If you want it unrooted, use my EZ Unroot ZIP.<\/span>
10) Fixed the problem of background APPs closing.<\/span>
11) I eliminated the top Notification Bar! This is a TV box and it was annoying!<\/span>
However, you can still pull down notifications using the mouse! So it’s still there just hidden.<\/span>
Not many APPs call the “Emersion Mode” so if they do not the notification bar stays. Annoying!<\/span>
This was true even with the Mbox launcher. Example, open and APP and the notification Bar pops down.<\/span>
If you do not like this, let me know and I can provide a ZIP to put it back.<\/span>
12) Added init.d script support as I do in all my ROMs.<\/span>
13) I added Xbox and Game controller KO modules. These should no be supported but I did not test it as I do not have a Xbox controller.<\/span>
My game controller I have works.<\/span>
14) Did some theming like wallpaper, boot logo, etc… Hope you like it.<\/span>
15) Some other tweaks here and there I cannot remember them all… Nothing that big just some clean up and tweaks.<\/span>
16) Finally…. This will break OTA updates from Tronsmart! It has to be this way. An OTA update from them will take away much of what I have done.<\/span>
Also I do not like the way Tronsmart implemented OTA. They force the update on you instead of letting you decide. I do not like that at all.<\/span>
I hope you enjoy this ROM…. Next release I may:<\/span>
Add TWRP recovery<\/span>
Try to fix SATA reboot and sleep issues.<\/span>
Other stuff you all report as a problem.<\/span> ROM Download Link:<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span>
Remember DO NOT unzip this!<\/span>
