If you want to say thanks by donating us using PayPal, feel free 😉
Do full backup before installation and wipe data/cache (factory reset) after installation. Remember – this release is just a beta and it’s not supposed to being used as main OS!
You need to perform a wipe if you’re migrating from software different than CM12.0!
You can get it on our DOWNLOAD page.

- tripple buffering
- external storage

Issues
- camera might work only in 3rd party apps
- missing part of OMXes implementation (so there’s no fully HW video acceleration)
I’d be glad, if you shared links to our download page, instead of direct links to download.
Also would be great, if you wouldn’t create the mirrors 😉
Thanks.

Thanks team nova , I think its time to port it to my mini 🙂
AWESOME 🙂
Thank you
And what about camera? always missing something…
there is a way to get all that they “missing” fixed, and that is DEVELOP YOUR OWN CUSTOMIZED ROOM, they don’t receive any payment for their work, if you don’t like that there is something missed every time that they release a new version, then you can go to another site and donwload the latest stable version that they have, if you are not paying for nothing, why are you asking a stable version?
bien dicho
Cerra el orto vos peruano terrorista
You are a fucking faggot
Tarado, si te quejas de todo comprate un nexus 6 y vas a tener todas las actualizaciones rápido, sino espera a que un grupo sin pago lo haga de onda.
I donate like 1 dolar, they work for money.
FOR 1$ YOU DON’T HAVE CAMERA. SHOULD HAVE DONATED 2$.
Then, develop the ROM yourself
Novafusion team are humans you know and they work their asses off just because they want to, trying to bring lollipop into our “low end” devices. Dont push them. The camera will be ready when its done.
Keep this good work NovaFusion!!
Greetings from colombia and happy new year!!!
Stop complaining, you should thank them for sharing their work with us that is fair enough
The camera has always been a problem but give it another week
Remember android 5 was a big big change
And since these are the only two then that means they can focus on fixing them
So we might get releases sooner
I use vanir aosp 4.4.4 with l-kat theme
Song think of using vanir 5 though bad bad idea
The more bugs squashed means less problems which means sung have to work as long
ONE REQUEST
PLEASE TRY TO FIX YOUTUBE APP THEN THIS CAN BE MY DAILY DRIVER
Happy new year maclaw and marcin and the community
Supports f2fs?
support f2fs?
I don now, but if you only use wipe cache, wipe Dalvik, wipe System (previous rom) you dont lose your data, but remember to install Gapps for 5.0.x
Where can I find Gapps?
Where may I find gapps 5.x?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/paranoid-android/general/gapps-official-to-date-pa-google-apps-t2943900
Doesn’t say that it doesn’t but better to ask them on Facebook first
Thank you. Happy new year!
Thanks, amazing rom, better than previous release. Almost everything works.

There is still some minor tearing in the ROM, but DAMN this is SMOOOTH!
Thanks Nova

Great work.. Still waiting for camera working.. My only priority
Hello friends, I have a problem installing this version.
Installing ‘/external_sd/cm12.0_golden.nova.20141231.zip’ ..
Checking for MD5 File
Skipping chek MD5: MD5 file not found
succeeded script: result was [0.200000]
Updating partition details …
I already did the ‘Factory Reset’ and does not start android stays at the loading screen of cyanogenmod
It takes more than 20 minutes with cyanogenmod screen …
Any suggestion for a working third party camera app on this rom???
What’s about battery life? Better than latest cm11?
Batterylife is okay
Even better than CM11 and other previous roms. I have tested it for a night and i can sure you battery life is so much better.
Hi, I have a problem with this version .
I wipe data / cache and install the new ROM the problem is that it is in the bootloader cyangenmod and not advance. And takes one hour so . Help me
And now.. Please update the Carbonrom 🙂 but nice work!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57858774&postcount=364
For those who want to know how it runs 😉
Very impressive changelog, great achievement!!!
a happy newyear to all and especially Team Nova.
Still happily using Carbon KitKat and wishing for Carbon Lollipop next year 🙂
Hey ItsPeet! Is that documentsui app working for you in carbon? I get force close as soon as I start it.
Yes no problem. Try clear data of Documents app and clear data of Download manager app.
f2fs support?
No
The camera can’t be open even though I use a 3rd part app.
There are still things to fix… but it goes in a good pace… a great one to be exact. Great job guys!
I wish everyone Happy New Year!
Do M&M:
Najlepszego w nowym roku! Żeby wasza robota szła wam jak po maśle w 2015! Tylko mała prośba: czytajcie posty umieszczane tutaj. Ludzie wcale was tu nie hejtują, a tylko zgłaszają usterki, które znaleźli, lub szukają pomocy, bo coś im nie działa. Pozdro! 😀
macław, chyba nie będzie ROMu dla ACE II w tym roku 😉
USB don’t work witch computer ?
Great job guys!
Thank you. Happy new year!
Alguen sabe que cámara funciona con esta rom?
Tx
This beta is like a pretty stable build. But I’ve noticed the following bugs :
– from time to time scrolling doesn’t work
– one time I had a phone app crash while trying to answer on the call in the head-up’s notification
– and as you know camera doesn’t work.
I think that’s all visible bugs.

Any suggestion of a third party camera app working on lollipop??
🙂 GOODBYE JELLYBEAN & KitKat 2014…!!!
WELCOME LOLLIPOP & MANGO 2015!!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2015 AND THE BEST TEAM DEVELOPER’S M &M 2015…!!! 🙂
Please, don’t forget CM11!!
Hi!
Anyone know 3rd party apps for camera who are working? I really need it
Hello,
I want to know which 3rd party app to use for camera. thanks in advance.
yuh. me too. i tried google camera and others. still cant work
Perfect!
My device is running smoother than ever.
Few bugs.
Camera, HTML5/Flash videos not working, Menu button takes you to app drawer. Besides that everything seems to work like a charm.
menu button issue solved;
1. open the file /system/usr/keylayout/sec_touchkey.kl
2. change the first line from “key 139 APP_SWITCH” into “key 139 MENU”.
3. Save and reboot.
I SO would be using these if I could get root back!
boot loop 🙁
Same
tam bir saattir dönüp duruyor
keep coming back for an hour
woh to install this rom…give me tutorial please
Just download the zip file, and download the gapps, do the wipes( cahche, dalvick, factory reset) and onstall the zip with twrp. Dont forget gapps 5.0.x
Descarga la ROM, pasala a tu sd y apaga tu telefono. Entras al twrp haces los wipes, instalas los zip de la ROM y los gapps. Reinicias y esperas.
Ok, i did everything you said.
But i ALWAYS have boot loop. Which “ext” should i use?
Ext4
Use ext4 non f2fs. Happy new year!
Happy new year!
Anyway i did it. But.. stil in boot loop.
i choose change file system in the recovery, is that correct?
What is the best stable version published for kitkat or lollipop for s3 mini? Thanks a lot, a happy new year!!!
Incredible work guys. Thanks a lot for this one. Smooth and working with the basics so… my daily rom now!
I know this is still in beta status, but just in case it helps, what I found not working (apart from the mentioned issues),
-Copying or moving files with ES File Explorer
-Sound in movies, at least with MX Player
-Menu button does not seem to be configurable
-Native keyboard does not allow to swipe
For all the guys that want to test it, it takes about 10 minutes for the first start.
And happy new year to all of you!
Native keyboard actually does support swipe. 🙂
Menu button can actually be configured
First:
1. Go to /system/build.prop
2. Edit “ro.build.type=userdebug” to “ro.build.type=user”
Second:
3. Go to /system/usr/keylayout/sec_touchkey.kl
4. Edit “key 139 (i forgot this part)” to “key 139 MENU”
Worked for me, hope it helps 🙂
Boot Loop GT-I8190

No amigo, te digo que el reproductor si funciona. No se por que a ti no.

Happy new year and thanks for the Rom!

WOW!
They are so close to the stability, is very fluid. Just need to repair the error in the camera. And we will have our Galaxy S3 Mini with android 5.0.
Happy new year luck.
Happy New Year, M&M!
When your instal this beutiful rom 5.0 after the recovery go?
Happy new year !! God worl team
Buenas noches ¿cómo está el consumo de energía?
Durante el uso es poco peor a CM11, en cuanto al gasto de batería cuando no usas el smartphone es muchísimo mejor. Con CM11 me duraba 4 horas usando musica y chst aquí me dura 3 a 3:30 horas. En cambio cuando no usaba el teléfono 15% dela beteria duraba unas 12 horas, ahora dura unas 20 aprox
It worked good, but my menu button launches multitask instead of menu/list, I tried to change it through settings but didn´t work.
And videos don’t work either
Menu button can actually be configured via:
First:
1. Go to /system/build.prop
2. Edit “ro.build.type=userdebug” to “ro.build.type=user”
Second:
3. Go to /system/usr/keylayout/sec_touchkey.kl
4. Edit “key 139 (i forgot this part)” to “key 139 MENU”
Worked for me, hope it helps 🙂
There is an howto tot work around it in a previous release.
Does it support f2f
battery drain!! it lasts maybe for 10 hours, carbon rom lasts more, at the moment, i do 20 hours always connected to wifi or 3G. Anyway the rom is great, so smooth and fast.

Though, this is still a great release, greetings from Lithuania!!! :DDD
Try to disable the apps you dot use, remember that the screen consumes most of the battery poder, try to reduce the brigthness( how strong is the ligth if the screeb) and try to reduce de effects or animations.
I love this rom it is smooth and fast , thanks nova.
But this rom has some errors like i can not use usb to coppy my data , some bugs in audio like increasing or not to be clean until change the volume , no videos except mx player, no youtube, no camera, lags while using chrome in screen , i can’t sync my facebook calender or somtimes sync turns off and lags in apks Need to be more stable.
Mtp dont work
Dont work Apps with root permission (ex. Finch, openvpn)
ART when?
hAppy newyear team m&m

There is a mention to third parrty apps for the camera on the post NovaFusion, any clue of what app?
Support overlock?
Stuck at boot…
Hello everyone,
I am aware about the camera issue but, as mentioned, is there any third party camera app that can help in this case? I have tried Google Camera and it doesn’t work at all.
My phone has been booting for 12h and still hasent finished. 🙁
thx you novafusion team! love u guys
Thanka a lot for the rom but i notest that there is also a bug with the contact name every time that i save a contact the person call me it chow the number :/ and you now about the camera problem so one’s again tjanks
Thank you guys, The ROM makes the phone a lot faster :-). Only thing I noticed is that the GPS is not working allthrough is mentioned as working. Is this a known issue or do I have a one off? Also does anyone know to the fix it with a workaround like with the red bars and the menu buttons. But besides this issue the ROM is great, and the progress is even better :-). I start considering this as my daily rom 😉
Thanks bro.. Really you number one :))
JUST WANNA KNOW…IS THERE SUPPOSED TO BE AN AROMA INSTALLER WHEN FLASHING THE ZIP FILE…..ALSO I KEEP ON GETTING BOOTLOOPS!!!!! AND IS THE BOOT ANIMATION THE SAME AS THE ONE IN CM11……
HELP PLEASE
When will fully stable version come?
Nd do i need to prform amy wipes i m using 2 update oh cm12 ?
great job.
two things for the bugtracker:
-Encryption not encrypting the phone. it’s just rebooting the phone and nothing happens
-AFWall: Enabling firewall gives toast: “error applying iptables rules”
Sorry I couldn’t identify the actual bugtracker. are you using github issues or is it correct to write here or on xda?
br
I have just downloaded and installed on my phone, and it amazes me how the phone is much much faster than any other ROM I have installed before. Except USB data connection and camera, it seems very stable and runs smoothly. Improving and fixing bugs in such a short time, this team deserves many many thanks.
Phone working really good, really smooth except sometimes it goes a little slower than usual, but nothing really unexpected from a beta. Facebook Messenger App does not open for me (but i can chat with it’s bubbles strangely) and music player just keeps crashing, i dont know why. I used it when i first installed the rom and no problem(it looks stylish as fuck), but latter began to crash and now i cant listen to music, either way is a tremendous job from the team, keep at it!
Update:
-AFWall: Enabling firewall gives toast: “error applying iptables rules”: only built-in iptables don’t work
please add terminal console to standard rom, as before
thanks again 🙂
“no MD5 file found”
“script succeeded: result was [0.200000]”
After this I reboot the phone and It satay on cyanogenmod screen… How can i solve it?
Yeah.. Me too
Great ROM I’ll be using it while I wait for a more stable version
Hail nova fusion team! Thank you
Slow but steady, issues keep getting knocked down, thanks for your work!
Bugs:
-computer cant detect phone
-lags in calls
-youtube
-dictionary on text (sugestions in words)
Boot loop, one hour…
I did a complete wipe, installed the rom and gapps.
any ideas?

Hello people Novafusion from and thanks for his work for the s3 mini now comes lollipop apologize for my bad English, I have a problem or be a bug maybe if they could better when receiving text messages I can not find an option to vibrate, and to put patron if it may come direct screen pattern. Greetings Thanks for your work
I would like to share results from CM12 31-12-14 version with GT-I8190N:
1) Stable!! UI navigation faster than CM11
2) All working except for camera and connection functions via USB or Bluetooth
(no “connected as media device” messages)
3) Telephone functions perfectly. It seems to have better reception with weak 3G signal
4) Lollipop interface easy to use if you are used to KitKat. A bit slicker.
5) GAPPS 5 works perfect. Does not seem like beta software to me.
(Note: On GAPPS 5, there is no “Email” anymore. All email accounts now via “Gmail” program)
Kudos to Novafusion and Cynaogenmod. This is really good!!
Works great =)
Not to many Bugs how my Miui with the Bad Arc S, No! it is very Smooth and don´t crashing by normal using. Battery Normal use 1:00 Clock 100% at MEZ to 21:00 Clock and Battery is still by 57% NICE!
Android OS 13% Display 8%.a small thing, but this is now and nothing bad can wait; the gradation from top to bottom and vice versa so the dock and status bar bothers me a little at a bright background image.
Looking forward to an update by then all good!
Per me OK tranne fotocamera, riconoscimento cellulare pc e riproduzione video. Bravissimi e complimenti.
Can i have the download link that direct to download CyanogenMod 12.0 (20141231) ??
