DESCRIPTION
Happy New Year! Thank you to everyone who supported Phoenix ROM in 2015. Now in 2016, I bring you Update 2. I hope you like it, even though there are a lot of good ROMS out there too for the K3 Note.
This is an Android 5.1.1 ROM port for the Lenovo K3 Note. Phoenix ROM will always be as close to AOSP and as close to the base ROM as possible. You will not find any additional tweaks for this ROM because the ROM is stable and fast as it is.
Base ROM is the Jiayu S3 5.1.1 (RC2) ROM developed by superdragonpt and DerTeufel1980 of the XDA Forums and Jiayu.de forums.
Major changes on Phoenix ROM Update 2 (RC2) since Phoenix ROM Update 1 (RC1):
- Google entered the security fixes from November (Stagefright patches are updated)
- Better support for layers themes (application from the Play Store required)
- New Launcher with icon pack support (new icon packages are in Play Store, but after "icon pack" search)
- Backup & Restore application added
- "Frameworks" updated to Android 5.1.1 release 26
- Performance optimizations (only draw pictures / backgrounds, if there is a change, …)
- ZRAM kernel reactivated (which provides compressed memory available) *** additional hidden RAM
- "Documents" file has managerial skills received (copy, cut, paste)
- Some applications adapted to the material design
- optimized "scroll"
- Performance optimization of the "last used applications" overview
- Speed Dial for Phone application added (Sorry, no translations entered)
- More and faster exchange of (automatic) brightness
- And more
- Some UI Changes specifically Settings Icons and layout
Some Issues some users may want to know:
- FM Radio still force closes upon exit, and when choosing channel list.
- Still no double-tap to wake support. If you want this feature, install Xposed Framework and use a module for double-tap to wake.
- Still no LED Notification support. I asked around how to get it to work but there are no replies. There are workarounds out there like Light Flow App and others.
Important Note to Porters:
- Thank you to the creators of Androium 6 and HTC Sense V2 for acknowledging Phoenix ROM as your base ROM.
- If you want to make Phoenix ROM Update 2 as your base rom, you are free to do so just don't forget to give credits.

*** Other notes:
– Xposed Framework is supported
※Please make a backup of your device before installing or updating ROM
Is there a reason why Android Device Manager is never able to even see this phone with this rom?
It doe’s works for me make sure enable this on security => device administrators, as well gps might be doggy try with wifi etc
Maxxaudio will be working?
Cm not ed fix bugs of hotspot..just that and its best
Which xposed module will support tap to wake?
This might be a silly question, but does quick settings work from the lock screen? There are a few ROMs where this doesn't work and is quite annoying.
Hi there, Unfortunately all videos I view on any browser doesn’t work it just remains blank or gets stuck on buffering. I figured it would be a flash player issue. I installed a legal version which works with flash enabled browsers like dolphin. Yet still did not work.
Legacy*
I also have the same problem. Have you manage to fix it and how? Thx
TESTED ALL working. I does`nt bother about the wake screen and the led. As long as the storage swapping working fine.
what theme / launcher is this?
Dude it's really good. I was ready to switch from Update 1 to Androium 6 and then boom! i saw Update 2 on ur rom and i just clicked downlaod without seeing the comments. What happens if u update a really good rom? Goes perferct! Keep up the good work! You have the best AOSP rom for K3!
I get stuck at Boot anim after apply layer theme and reboot. Anyone can use layer theme on this rom ?
You be ‘da mang!
