This ROM is a joint effort put together by @bri315317, @ted77usa and myself. This is the ROM that we believe everyone has been waiting for, it is cross compatible with both the S5 and S5A, is designed to be fast, stable and easily accept mods and themes. Our goal was to provide one ROM that is easily maintained for both devices. It uses a proprietary scripting system designed to detect and correctly configure multiple devices (in this instance the S5 and S5A) it can be expanded to include many more. We hope you all enjoy this ROM and our goal is to make it easier to maintain and support rather than trying to devide our time amongst several different ROMs.

The following issues may be encountered:
1. Fingerprint scanner sensitivity may be encountered when attempting to change secure lockscreen type
if this is encountered the alternate password still works to allow access.
2. Screen on notification for text messages even though a toggle is included may not work properly.
3. Bluetooth devices may disconnect on outgoing or incoming calls (not reproducable by me)
one user reports no problems with BT, one user reporting this issue. even tho i have only the one
report i am amaking mention of this issue here as it is a definite nuisance.

Special Note:
1. Private Mode - Has been removed from the build, without the accompanying knox components Private Mode remains non-functional. I know that there are ROM's out there with Private Mode working however, I have not had time to research exactly what is required in order to make it play well with custom ROMs it is possible that it just requires the missing folder structure and nothing more but I have not had time to delve into that as of yet. In deference to performance and functionality most accompanying code has been removed.
2. A.R.T. Runtime - A.R.T. runtime even on a good day is tempermental at best, Google did not intend it to be any type of daily use environment and since this ROM is de-odexed the system has a dificult time handling the conversion process from Dalvik to A.R.T. therefore I have chosen to temporarily disable this feature through the developer options in settings. All of the code for this feature still exists within the ROM itself and can be turned back on fairly easily, my intentions are to wait until Google decides if this is going to be mainstream or drops it from use.
Major enhancement to the flashing process
I have included custom scripts that are called during the flash process (I originally wrote and implemented these in the HTC forums). These scripts in conjunction with the updater-script are able to better handle the process of wiping /system and /data and also include the automatic backup and restore of all user level apps from /data/app. The scripts intentionally ignore all coresponding application data backing up only the core apk itself. this offers you a completely clean start from scratch not only for all system apps but all of your personal apps as well. Now when flashing there is no more need to remember to wipe data or system just copy the zip to your sdcard, reboot to SS Recovery and flash and your done.

Performance Stability Patch - Performance_Stability_Patch.zip not needed for current version
Notes:
We all know how (or should at least grasp the understanding of) how init.d support works in the Android world, init.d is used by most DEVs that build ROMs or create custom performance and other enhancement mods (@zeppelinrox for instance and his famous V6 supercharger scripts, highly recommend you check these out by the way, these are probably the most comprehensive tweaks around and don't overwrite or delete any existing scripts.) make use of init.d support however, what most of us run into is when we flash a ROM that has included tweaks and performance enhancements we often lose those baseline enhancements when we flash other Mods and scripts a lot of our initial enhancements are lost in the fray never to be seen again.What I have implemented here is a whole new way of handling the KoolKit baseline performance enhancements, no matter what you install/flash/push or modify in the way of scripts or init.d, the base performance enhancements are always the initial configuration. All of my tweaks and enhancements are now handled prior to (and independant of) any init.d support. This gives you a stable starting point no matter what happens if you find your edits or mods that you tried didn't work just delete them and the KoolKit enhancements will once again be your default. This patch is optional but recommended.

init.d stability patch - Enhances the overall performance of the init.d calls (See Notes Below) - init_d_stability.zip
NOTES
int.d support is a big part of being able to apply tweaks, settings, user customizations etc. in the Android world. There are several different implementations of init.d for android, most rely on kernel and ramdisk edits others rely on the user guessing at the number of seconds to pause execution while waiting for other processes to finish. On the Contrary KoolKit init.d support requires neither kernel edits nor the users input in any fashion. My custom written sysinit waits for the boot process to report back as complete so no matter if it takes 5 seconds or 10 seconds init.d will run as soon as it gets the go ahead from the boot_completed process. There is also the added bonus of not only supporting init.d but also userinit.d (scripts that are dependant on init.d completing first). Another big advantage is the logging that happens during the init process both to the system log and to /data/local/initlog.log you'll be able to tell if everything ran, permissions where set, whether or not it found userinit.d has been implemented in your rom, plus no more need to remember what permissions to set if someone gives you a script just push it to the init.d folder and reboot my KoolKit process checks permissions and sets them correctly for any file placed in the init.d folder or the userinit.d folder.

What are the possibilities of getting download booster eventually coming in to your Rom?

I followed your steps and after reboot everything is the same as it was. all of my accounts are logged and in apps are still there. I think I have your rom though because the build is uance. Do you have to do any kind of format or reset in safestrap before Installing the rom?

It has not been released yet. Everyone is looking for it, and waiting. I have an email out to our friends at sammobile but have not received a response yet. I'll post it as soon as it is up.
Sweet a developer from my neck of the woods. Thanks for your work and time.

anybody getting soft reboots?
No I'm not getting reboots. But that could be related to a bunch of things. Have you used any mods or removed any extra files? I'm just on a clean slate with the rom running normal accounts and apps. Replaced some UI sounds with root browser and seems fine.

NOTE:
One feature of B03 is the user app backup and restore, for this to function dont wipe data just let the rom install handle everything and it should back up your /data/app folder and restore it on flash, it's experimental so no gaurentees but would appreciate any feedback you have.
Remember I don't have this device, this is a blind build but should work fine. please let me know

ROM performs a full wipe data/factory reset it also backs up all user level apps and restores them without restoring associated data this will give you the cleanest possible flash with your apps. make a backup first

Notes:
We all know how (or should at least grasp the understanding of) how init.d support works in the Android world, init.d is used by most DEVs that build ROMs or create custom performance and other enhancement mods (@zeppelinrox for instance and his famous V6 supercharger scripts, highly recommend you check these out by the way, these are probably the most comprehensive tweaks around and don't overwrite or delete any existing scripts.) make use of init.d support however, what most of us run into is when we flash a ROM that has included tweaks and performance enhancements we often lose those baseline enhancements when we flash other Mods and scripts a lot of our initial enhancements are lost in the fray never to be seen again.What I have implemented here is a whole new way of handling the KoolKit baseline performance enhancements, no matter what you install/flash/push or modify in the way of scripts or init.d, the base performance enhancements are always the initial configuration. All of my tweaks and enhancements are now handled prior to (and independant of) any init.d support. This gives you a stable starting point no matter what happens if you find your edits or mods that you tried didn't work just delete them and the KoolKit enhancements will once again be your default. This patch is optional but recommended.

OK I went in to safestrap and did the factory reset went to install and it's telling me it can't open the .zip. I did however move it to my SD card with root explorer so I think I'll re download tomorrow, might have gotten f'd. But all is good just factory reset is all. Thanks again and I'll let you guys know What I come up with tomorrow.

Has anyone been able to flash yet? It sounds like my zip is corrupt
Dude, I'm running this ROM. It installed just fine. Only thing I had to do was re-root and re install busybox and safestrap.
I disabled all the google apps I dont use and BAM.....This ROM is really fast.
I'm stilll setting it up how I like but so far its been faster than stock I had.

safestrap yes, re-root you shouldnt have had to do, did you reboot once after the initial setup? if not thats why root and SU acted funny.
can you send me some screenshots? please?
this is an initial beta so feedback like this is perfect.
thanks

Yes I rebooted. But I rebooted before I entered any info in. The second boot, I entered all my crap in. SU said there was no binary installed.
Safestrap said I was not rooted. Also showing me the custom lock on boot up which I've never seen when I had my stock root running.
I install busybox and rebooted. I disabled superSU app and rebooted, enabled it after that and it worked. Installed Safestrap and rebooted.
After about 5 or 6 reboots, the phone was really fast and everything is working so far. Its time to really trick it out how I like and report to you any findings. So far, I love it !!!!

it needs to complete the initial setup first in otherwords
1. Flash ROM
2. Reboot
3. complete all of the initial setup (google, email etc blah blah blah)
4. reboot
as far as the custom lock that comes and goes it does it on the regular S5 rom as well
I also had too reroot with towel root. Otherwise it seems fine.

Just to report I followed the above steps.
1. Flash ROM
2. Reboot
3. complete all of the initial setup (google, email etc blah blah blah)
4. reboot
However I still needed to re-root with towel root. Obviously not a big deal but just FYI.
Thanks again for the ROM.

♦♦ Question and Answers by @clothednblack♦♦
Q. What is a clean flash?
A. Clean flash is as follows....
Boot to ss
Hit wipe
Slide to factory reset
Back out
Hit install
Find zip
Slide to install
This deletes everything except data. You will have to set the phone up again. All your pics and sounds and downloads are safe and will be there when you return.
Super clean install is as follows....
Boot to ss
Hit wipe
Swipe to factory reset
Back out
Hit install
Find zip
Slide to flash
Reboot.
This will wipe everything on the phone, all pics, sounds, settings, everything will be gone, except the contents of the sdcard.
Q. What is a dirty flash?
A. Dirty flash is as follows...
Boot to ss
Hit install
Find zip file
Slide to flash
Reboot.
This deletes absolutely nothing, no wipe needed.
Q.What happens when I wipe data?
A.While in Safestrap if you select the "Wipe" button, you will then be taken to a screen with three options. Here is an attempt to somewhat clarify those options.
1. Swipe to Factory Reset - This is the most common way of wiping, and what is most commonly used for installing a new ROM. This option is considered a "Clean Flash".
2. Advanced Wipe - This option is used to specify partitions to wipe. It is generally okay to select all options here EXCEPT "Micro SDcard". This can also be used when doing a "Clean Flash".
3. Format Data - DO NOT USE the "Format Data" button. If you select it by accident you are going to be required to type the word "yes" to even proceed further. You have been hereby WARNED. If you refuse to heed this warning there is a good chance you will soft brick your phone.
Q. Can I flash to a slot?
A. Yes, you sure can. Expect bugs or issues, expect the reboot option in the power menu to NOT work.
Q. How to I go back to stock?
A. Dirty flash the rom. (see above)
Q. Somethings are acting strange, is there a easy fix?
A. Boot to SS (safestrap) hit wipe, now hit advanced and check the cache and dalvik cache box's ONLY! slide to wipe, reboot system.
Q. My signal is weak, is it the rom?
A. I highly doubt that, it's related to the modem and some are better than others depending where you are. Check out other Modems here.
Q. Where can I find the add-on'?
A. In the DK store. Hit menu/system settings/device then DK rom control.
Q. My battery life isn't very good, how can I find what's going on?
A. Download "wakelock detector" and "better battery stats". Then if you are still confused, take a screenshot and post it.
Q. Where do I start??
A.On first boot, status bar will be black on home screen to make transparent it must be fixed If you want transparent. (Statusbar Gradient)
Open each respective setting and apply the color.Transparent is selected by default.
Also on first boot, there is no visible clock. You must set your style and alignment. Warning, center clock does not play well with ticker notifications ( They overlap when present, WIP)
Note about 3minit quick launch, After you tick to have or untick to remove, you need to reboot for it to remove properly.
If you are changing a lot of things like systemUi or lockscreen, Your device will hot boot to apply the change. I strongly suggest to do a full reboot after you are done playing. (Hot reboot "can" causing battery performance issues)
Q. How do I make my status bar transparent?
A. Go to the Rom Control and then tap status bar mods. Go down and tap "Status Bar Gradients." Now there should be 2 color options, just tap a color, then tap the box on the bottom right because that is the transparent. Do the same for the second color.
Q. Why is the jome button is not turning on the screen?
A. There is a toggle for it in Rom control, under hardware keys.
Q. Is off topic discussion allowed here?
A. Absolutely not, take it somewhere else..... Of course it's allowed here. We all love to chat, showoff, brag, and keep others in the loop. It's a big family in here!
Q. Reboot toggle isn't working?
A. It's a WIP, fix is in the works.
Q. AOSP lockscreen isn't working?
A. It's a WIP, fix is in the works.
Q. How do I check apn settings?
A. Settings>Networks>More Networks>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names
From here, you can reset to default by hitting menu/reset to default

Thank you sir! Hopefully it will be well received here.
Let me introduce myself, some of you know me, a lot of you don't!
I am the developer of Dynamic Kat. Originally for the AT&T Note 3 found here.
This is your ROM, I will custom tailor it to fit your needs. I am always open to request. You want to contribute to the rom, thats great! I will include it in Rom Control and everyone can use it.
I try to run a nice relaxing home here. DK is more than just a rom. It is a group of people hanging out doing the things they enjoy TOGETHER. We all work together to make it a nice easy going friendly place to be.
Hope you all enjoy my work!
Brian
Very glad to have been part of the beta testing for this AWESOME rom, bri315317 did an amazing job with this release and I expect only greatness to come. The rom is super smooth, data works, MMS works, root works (remember to flash the super-su update in OP!)... It's just overall sweet.

Interactive governor optimisation from Same-xx :
A lot is asked me about kernels, so here is for your pleasure 2 more kernels: Dehawk´s non oc doj2: https://mega.nz/#!HtY1kQhT!sG6hCDp6oyMhKj9zh0yW8LVjAe3p9CGEc5EPnVuJ8BI
And here is Hawks doj2 oc kernel with little modifications: https://mega.nz/#!S0RynbyA!feLOI4W0LHvQiOvAlUuOP2N0Uw8Fgq9TNg4Jf5poXfE
These kernels are intented to use with this optimization file: https://mega.nz/#!v0I20Iob!UBa4mvbbJIKxrBLES5_mtXVu71MMeJD94St-nUirqDw
THIS IS IMPORTANT!!! Place this file to your root/etc folder. Rename your old init.qcom.post_boot.sh to init.qcom.post_boot.sh.bak
and replace your old file this new downloaded file chance permissions to 0644, and reboot your phone.
If you don´t already use, then chance your governor to interactive. And you won´t believe results. PLEASE try first at the non-oc kernel, so you get the idea how big change is started in your phone. After you have get the hold of it, the you cand try oc- version.
And I quarantee, your phone feels totally different. Multitask, speed, everything.
I made that file weeks for your pleasure. But be careful, on top of that wrong settings can harm your phone. But just adding this file do no harm to your phone. So test it and tell me what do you thin of it. It also can use of course with arter97 kernels, but governor must set to interactive.
What comes to installing doj2 kernel, if you have some kernel already installed, you can just flash it on top. If you do clean install; install first firework and without reboot doj2 straight after. Wifi and everything should work. Best results come with oc-kernel.
I am not responsible if u damage your phone by doing something against my advice. Ask and I will advise. And please take into count, it was my first, not counting practice versions and I made it over a month. But it really works
Nobody has right to take my optimizing code for own projects or copy it without my permission, chance it any way without my approval. If you want to include this your project you need to discus it with me.
And you how test and try it, please give feedback as much as possible. And ideas for improvements are always welcome!!!
If you have something to ask about the file or what it do, your questions are welcome.
To keep this project alive and thanks @kmokhtar79

Benny, and I have had this phone for a couple of months. We have been playing and testing the ZTE waters so to speak. We have now consolidated all of our ideas into one flashable utilizing an Aroma installer.
We highly suggest installing logcat while you are there. There are really only two pertinent items now when reporting issues:
1) Are you using Magisk or SuperSu for root\
2) Options selected that you are having an issue with.
Please enjoy the ROM
Guide for using SVN
Step 1: Install Tortoise SVN
This is pretty straight-forward, simply download the correct installer for your PC (32 or 64).
Step 2: Create a folder to download the ROM
Create a folder on your Windows PC, call it whatever you want, BadBoyz ROM, ZTE, whatever
Step 3: Add the SVN Checkout Link
Right click on the folder you added in step 2 then choose SVN Checkout
Add the following link to "URL of repository": http://svn.badboyzsvns.com/ZTE_Axon_7/
Step 4: Ready to Download!
Right click on the folder you added in step 2 then choose SVN Update
The ROM structure will download
Step 5: Create the ROM!
Simply double click the "Run_to_build_ROM.bat" to create the ROM
Copy ROM from ROM folder to your phone & flash away!
Here is the latest B19 Bootstack with TWRP included. It is TWRP flashable.
This is for the A2017U version. If you are coming from a different version there is a thread for that.​
A2017U B25 Bootstck
A2017U 7.1.1 B19 Bootstack with TWRP
A2017U B19 Stock System & Boot
MODS
7.1.1 3Mint Battery Mod
You must disable stock battery in System Tuner & percent in Dispaly settings​
Magisk ROM INFO:
What is this? A pure magisk ROM allows you to maintain an untouched stock system while having all the features of a custom ROM and root. The modifications run as a module, and makes for a much more stable ROM than one that has been run through the kitchen and deodexed.
Also, If you are on this ROM. updates will be much less cumbersome. Once the data image is in place further mods/changes require a very small file to flash. End game- you will be on a custom ROM, rooted, and still be able to take OTA's.
My stategy: I keep the stock recovery on my sd card. After the OTA has dl'd, disable the current ROM module in Magisk manger, boot to twrp, and flash the stock recovery img. Then, in twrp, choose reboot recovery. You should boot into stock recovery, at witch point you can flash the OTA. An updated module will be provided here in due time. I use this device so updates to the module will come quickly.
Instructions:
1) Restore your stock system image backup in TWRP. If you don't have one you can flash the stock img's in post #3. If you are not on N flash the bootstack first then the B15 stock file. Wipe data and reboot.
2) Reboot and breeze through the setup. No wifi, google acct, etc
3) Reboot to TWRP. Don't swipe to allow system modifications. Keep system RO. Swipe to factory reset, then flash the Magisk ROM.
4) Reboot. Setup. You will see the ROM running as a module in Magisk manager.
Notes:
This is based on the regular ROM, and also includes:
-fixed Until next alarm when activating DND w/ an alarm set
-added cast screen tile to QS
-No bluetooth weirdness
-reverted to stock clock
If you don't like the navbar-
Open the ROM zip. Look in /magisk and extract badboyz.zip. Inside the the zip there is a common folder. Open the file "post-fs-data.sh" w/ notepad++ and change "qemu.hw.mainkeys 0" to "qemu.hw.mainkeys 1"

Not sure. You'll have to try. I always mod the rom to my liking w/out Xposed
Gallery not seeing my SD card. Also 3 finger screen capture not working. Screenshot not working.

Xposed allows a lot more than just modding.

I can't replicate either of these issues. Both work for me. Did You clean flash?

This isn't my first rodeo. I baked the rom. I know what xposed is and what you can do with it. I just prefer to leave app_process alone, and do what I need thru hard code

There is an updated ROM uploading right now. Please try back later
I neglected to remove the NFC icon from the status bar. That is the reason for updating/re-upping the ROM
Can we get the stock clock app as an add-on?

Yessir. I'll be right on it tomorrow am. Please understand that this ROM is in it's infancy. When N gets released we will have more mods and features. I have developed stuff all the way from honeycomb to nougat. It's just not worth the work right now to edit the code as it WILL change with the upcoming release
