ROM Review:-

(+)  ROM is about 300MB In Size, I havent Added Gapps In ROM Itself. You Have To Flash Them Seperately (Link Is Added In Download Section). It Comes Pre-ROOTED,You Can Enable ROOT From Developer Options in Settings.

(+)  ROM Performance is Smooth, Fast and Very Responsive. creator of This ROM Made Many Positive Changes In it. many Applications or customiseable Options Are Bundled Inside It
There is Seperate HK ROM Control Option Under settings Where You Can Find Out Many Customiseable Features like App Remover,Font Chooser,WiFi Killer, Animations Control etc etc..

(+)  When You 1st Boot Into ROM When You Set WiFi Or Data It May Ask You Pin To Proceed then Select PIN Enter 1234 then confirm it. Now Go To HK Control option Under Settings an Disable Internet Security Pin. It Will Be Handy If You Need to Secure Your Device Connectivity (in Case).
(+)  For Themeing Or ROM UI, Though HK Project is Based CM12.1(Lollipop) Some MM Look Like Or Feel is Attched in it Like CM13's Launcher or Kind Of Same Statusbar.
(+) I have Been Testing This ROM From 2 Days And I havent Faced Any Big Issue With It. No Memory Leaks, Youtube 720P Works(No 60Fps Though). Youtube 5 sec Lag Also Fixed.
(+)  I Tried Data Connection Which Is Working Fine For me On Both SIMs,But Sometimes I have to Turn On Airplane MODE and Turn It OFF If Data Doesnt Gets Switched On.For Networks For Quite Sometime I Do Faced Network Drop But It Was Bearable As It Was Occurring Only Sometimes Like 1-2 Times a Day.
(+)  There is SmartWake Options In Settings But Those Wont Work For Our Device As Our Kernel Doesnt Supported It.

(+)  Battery Backup was As Good As Other CM12.1 Based ROMs But Not Good as MIUI But It is Ok For me As I want Lollipop 😍.

WorkAround Fixes:- 

  1. For Screen Recorder Green Videos :-  Use Encoder As Software In Screen Recording Software !
  2. Data Not Turning On ? :- Set APN For Particular SIM Then Set SIM For Data connection From Settings Then Turn On Data It should work ! If Still NOT Working Then Turn On Airplane Mode and Turn it OFF ( While Data is Already Turned ON )
  3. VPN (Browser Tunnel Mode) :-  Check 1st Comment !
