Hi,
since the official maintainer "solk2" for the GT-I9506 moved on to CM12 before providing a final build incorporating his latest fixes I decided to make my own builds.
According to my personal experience the battery life has vastly improved. In particular the power consumption while the display is off has decreased substantially. Solk2 has apparently fixed some issues with the kernel so the battery issues are gone. So for everyone not yet willing to transition to CM12 (in my case inter alia due to the currently unstable state and the lack of a stable Xposed framework in Android 5) this might be a good alternative.
I will gladly share my unofficial ROMs, however I would need someone to host the files in order to do that. If anyone would be so kind as to host ROMs please let me know.
If any relevant code changes to CM11 will appear I will most certainly compile a new version.
* IMPORTANT *
Please note that these builds are based on nothing else than the unchanged official code from Cyanogenmod, solk2 and others. So every credit goes to them.
I will not and cannot make any changes to the code. The only thing I can do and will do is build a ROM thereof in case some interesting fixes etc. appear. However, since CM11 is becoming outdated there will most probably not be a lot of changes to come.
Also, it should be understood that I take no responsibilities whatsoever if anything goes wrong when you install the ROM. Like the original ROM this is completely at your own risk!
However, you can expect that any ROM I share has been installed on my own GT-I9506 (with Samsung firmware of 4.4.2 nordic countries) and runs without obvious issues. Your mileage may vary.
