DESCRIPTION
THL 5000 Lite ROM 2.1 - all Lite ROMs are very fast and smooth, there is no lagg of any kind, works perfect, fast and smooth. Based on stock kernel 1.1.2. In my opinion, this is currently the best ROM.
This is the third version of the Lite ROM (1.0, 2.0, 2.1) from excellent ukrainian author Dimid/iv2012 (see below this post and please donate him on WebMoney, if you have an account there). It's a pity that Dimid hasn't Paypal. ROM advantages are: pure Android, small size, simplicity, speed and low battery consumption. ROM is ROOTed, GAPPS are included, OTG works. Dimid gave me permission to upload ROM here. I prepared a little bit modified version where removes residual cyrillic, added missing translates and made a few small changes (see changes). I'm excited from this ROM - I have installed Gravity Box through which I set what I need.
Languages: Multilanguage
Installation: (as usually from TWRP)
1 – save the ROM file Lite_v2.1_Odex_2.zip on the SD card
2 – jump to TWRP recovery, if you haven't it, install it (installation instructions are here, sorry in slovak language only,use Google translator): http://androidforum.cz/twrp-2-7-1-0-root-pre-thl-5000-t57731.html
3 – click Wipe and select items: Dalvik Cache, System, Cache, Data, Int.SDcard (optional) and Android Secure, then click Swipe to Wipe
4 – click on Install, choose ROM file Lite_v2.1_Odex_2.zip and install it – click Swipe to Install, then click Reboot System
5 – enable notification LED in Settings/Display/Led switch -> Enable what you want
6 – enable Adblock in Settings/Additional Settings/Adblock -> Enable (Download and apply blocking)
7 – finish
8 - If you will install Gravity Box, do not forget change default setting in Phone tweaks/Telephony/Fullscreen caller photo, set it to Partial and restart phone (otherwise no hangup button on incoming calls)
9 - Do not change the default value in the Settings/Developer options/Animator duration scale, always must be set min. to 0.5x (otherwise Dialer won't work correctly)
Do not play with Lock button in Settings/Additional Settings/Download EPO.dat! For normal operation it required an internet connection at the time of GPS launch! I do not use EPO function and GPS fix works quickly and well. I recommend do not use this option. If someone wanted to use this feature, here are instructions in russian language (use Google translator) - http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=592576&view=findpost&p=42175265
Optional patches (Important: Install it in TWRP: click on Install, then click Wipe Cache/Dalvik, finally click Reset to system):
- Kernel110_old_disp_fixed.zip - core for old display type (install when your Gama is different from value 2.0)
- Unlock_VolKey.rar - unpack RAR archive, will get two ZIP files, first enable display unlocking by the volume buttons, second revert it back (if you use Gravity Box, works key Volume- only)
- Unlock_Profiles_Lite2.1_1.zip - add a new option "More Ringtones" for selection of ringtones from MP3 albums on your SD card (Settings/Audio profiles/profile name/Ringtone/Sim/1st option "More Ringtones"
- Modems.rar - unpack RAR archive, will get two ZIP files, first install 900Mhz 3G modem, second install standard 850Mhz 3G modem (I think the 850 MHz modem works better, but someone want to me 900Mhz, so added)
- SMS_icon.zip - change the icon of the SMS application to standard
How to set a custom mellodies:
Custom mellody for SMS notification
1. give e.g. MP3 file to folder "Notifications" on SD card.
2. Then set it in Settings/Audio profiles/General/Notifications
Custom mellody as Ringtone
1. give e.g. MP3 file to folder "Ringtones" on SD card
2. Then set it in in Settings/Audio profiles/General/Voice call ringtone
Custom mellody as Alarm clock
1. give e.g. MP3 file to folder "Alarms" on SD card
2. Then set it in icon Clock, choose Alarms, set alarm time and choose your melody

Hi
After install rom Lite 2.1 but I can't install Nova luncher and gravity box because it show "Parse error ; There was a problem pasing the package" on my display. Can you help me?
So far the best ROM for performance, stability, and almost everything else. Just costs a bit more battery life but worth it at times. Would recomend this ROM to others.
I also think the same.
Hi everybody.
Nothing is changed in this version (4.4.2),and some errors => alert light of the battery doesnt pulse.green light of calls instead of red light. Ad blocker also is wrong, and the Weather widget doesnt update. and the shortcut of Apps you cant delete it.
I wish if the developers can update it to android 4.4.4 Kitkat. I think this is the best android untill now,even there is the android 5.1.1

Hi all !
This is the best rom so far !!
thank you.
But I am stil having GPS issues, the GPS captures the bellow, while I was running on the withe road..
Does anyone has the same issue? is there a fix for it?
I've been looking on the Engineer mode into AGPS, but I have no idea what to change.
Thank you.

Yes THL 5000 has a really bad GPS antenna. Use external Bluetooth GPS module – will get a much better results. I use Nokia LD3W Bluetooth module – is the best, because uses a legendary chip Sirf Star III.
Because the error is in GPS antenna, there can't exists any software fix -> buy Bluetooth GPS module.
I strongly recommend this rom to anybody without any doubts.. Very smooth and stable. Thanks to Damid for this and rbarat of listing it here. More grease to your elbows.
