This was why I suggested that it would be best that anyone using switcher zips not report bugs. On official ROM threads on XDA they actually tell you exactly how to install the ROM, which gapps to use and that if you use a custom kernel or delete anything from or add anything to the system not to report bugs.

Basically you should only report bugs if you did a clean install and haven't messed with any of the system files or installed xposed. If you aren't using the ROM exactly how it came don't report bugs.

no need to be sorry, and I did not mean to sound so harsh in that post

just wanted to make it clear how to do it, after I wrote that I read it and thought I sounded a little impatient or something

you did not tell me you installed a switcher

this is my instructions for this rom

install rom
install gapps
factory reset


that is it, if you install other mods or other kernels, dont post you issues in here
if you have an issue, and you have not factory wiped, dont post your issue here

This is why I didn't want to make these zips for your ROM and haven't posted any yet. And also because of the fact that I don't have the time to update them every time you release a new test version. I really wish people could use the ROM the way it comes. I don't see the need for system rw with cm

My only reason for rw is ad blocking that's about it and also viper other then that there no big use for it ...
 
Hroark13 I'm willing to become your Guinea pig (lolz ) Im buying a new phone in a couples of days don't mind bricking this device . so anything to test I'm I willing to go for it .
 
After 20 hours of use.. The secret test subject (my gf) has only complained about the lollipop camera... "It's a p.o.s.!.. You need to get back the old camera... I dunno why you keep breaking your phone!".... Lol ....
Without the kernel flash things are aiight n super fresh.
 
Would someone be so kind as to test and confirm or deny rather or not Netflix works on RC2 and all other issues never applied to me. Since beta 1 all I ever need was NF working and had no luck fixing it myself. Android is not my strong suit
 
I got it to work, only I lost all root access. any ideas to why? never mind got it. so far everything works flawlessly. I'm feeling it! Awesome work hroark! you saved a lot of us from upgrading to another phone. its been years since I had cyanogen mod on an android phone me personally. last phone to work was Huawai Acsend. old school LMAO!!!

Well I have made some zips to get r/w on the most recent CM12.1 version as for right now.
THESE ARE TO ONLY WORK FOR CM12.1 RC2. THIS HAVE ONLY BEEN TESTED ON Z970 (T-Mobile Variant). These might work on other ZTE ZMAX variants. These zips switch the boot and recovery image so be careful.

For R/W on /system (Must boot to recovery to access the OS):

yeah. cause if it is enforcing, all the sh it would stop workin, the sepolicy I have does not cover all the hardware

so if you are any good at making sepolicies I could use some help
