This is awesome. TWRP took care of it over CWM? I was gonna ask about Phil'z Recovery before you tried TWRP but a fully functional Recovery ANYTHING is what's up! Oh, BTW they used TWRP on the ZMax as well..

Edit: any chance you can "Clone a ROM" with it or is that just a Phil's Touch capability?

I don't think TWRP has the clone rom feature, but you can just grab the system from a backup and zip it with the updater-script from the stock rom for similar function.

Please post ROM problems in the ROM thread. Thanks

When you post, please attach a recovery log so I can figure out the problem. You can get a log by going to advanced, send log to sdcard.
 
I got this finished way faster than I thought ;) Please test this version of TWRP

As mentioned in the stock rom thread here are the changes:
  1. I have /data as f2fs instead of ext4. Don't think this is causing too much trouble as TWRP notices it is ext4 but I changed it anyway.
  2. The /misc partition is missing. Added it to the fstab.
  3. Built kernel from source instead of using prebuilts. This is less risky now that we have a working tree. Previously, I wanted to be sure the kernel was not causing issues. Since we had no way to test a source-built kernel, it made sense to use a prebuilt. If it won't boot now, we know it is the kernel and not the tree.
  4. Make TWRP default to the external sdcard
  5. Forgot to add this source-built kernel also uses selinux permissive instead of enforcing. It may be what is causing the errors I saw in the log.
edit: removed link due to newer version in the OP

Sweet! We have a working kernel source :)

1. Did it default to external sdcard?
2. Please try flashing the deodexed rom again and upload a log if it fails. Thanks

How do I check if it's default to external sdcard and okay I will do that

When you choose a file to flash, is it looking in your external sdcard by default or do you need to touch the storage button and change it to external?
 
Updated the stock rom OP with these instructions in case of errors. Also updated this OP with the 1b version.
