Edited by davidu at 2016-7-24 23:23 \n\nHello,

Thank you for providing this ROM, excellent work!

I did encounter a few issues and thought I would share some workarounds

Audio low - edited the following lines in /etc/mixer_paths_mtp.xml & /etc/mixer_paths.skuk.xml
            <ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="84" />
            <ctl name="RX2 Digital Volume" value="84" />
            <ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="84" />
            changing 84 to 90
           !! Do not make it too high, a small increment can make a big differnece and damage the
           speaker !!

Touch input sluggish - changed home screen/launcher from default Trebuchet to a faster one, in my  
                               case SmartLauncherPro

Other than that so far so good.
Update:
I had some performance issues that in the end turned out to be a faulty SD card and a case of bad timing.  However, in the process of trying to resolve it I found 2 apps that definately improved day to day usage as well as reducing lag in some games and even upped the antutu score from around 28,000 to around 30,000.  They are below and worth trying but you might want to make sure you understand what they do first, check the apps notes etc...

Also, as a bonus this rom has enabled 4G on the second SIM.  I had to manually tell it to use 4G networks/frequencies in the SIM settings but after that it has worked fine and I am able to switch data between the 2 SIM's with no problems and enjoy 4G on whichever is best at the time.

As an aside I have played around with the CPU governer and IO scheduler settings but the defaults seem to remain the best mix of performance, stability, and battery life.

As I have mentioned before, I am currently busy with other things and cannot mantain/build regularly.So I just build and upload when I can. There will be builds as long as I have this phone, and I have no plans of buying another one for at least a year.

I have now updated the link in the first post, but anyway, you can always find all releases (including the last one) here: https://basketbuild.com/devs/varotone/TCL/q39.
