[INSTALL]
If you are new to lollipop your best bet is to install via JCSullins ToolBox. This rom will require TWRP 2.8.0 or higher. You will need a min of 800MB system partition for this to install also. Evervolv now has the backup tool in the install script so when your upgrading no more need to reflash gapps. If you have any issues let me know
[UPGRADE(Dirty Flash)]
I have noticed if you dirty flash on first boot you may experience a little lag or possible reboot. After it settles down no issues. Not sure if its art related on upgrades or what. Its hard to pin point as it only happens once and smooth after that. Recommend after an upgrade let it settle in before playing hard.
Thanks
FIrst boot is a little slow but that is due to art. I always recommend a clean install when upgrading but if you feel luck. Backup and try a dirty flash. If you have issues run a clean install and if you still have issues please post with a logcat. You can upload via bugreport in the toolbox under settings. If going from a differnt rom other then evervolv lollipop always clean install. ALWAYS REMEMBER TO BACKUP its important if you don't want to loose anything
NOTE: NEED a clean install if moving from a previous version and or another ROM.
Flashing from cm or any other ROM will require a clean install, dirty flashes can cause random reboots and random errors
