buglist:
-screen stucks blank for a while at first start [after flashing ROM], but no issue at all on further reboots/boot ups
- bluetooth stack is rather fragile
- you tell me! [scroll down the comments of this thread]
screenshots:
tools required:
- Xiaomi Mi2(s)
- CWM / TWRP recovery installed [tested on 6.0.5.1 and 2.5.8.0 versions]

notes:
this ROM is already rooted by default.
to install a custom recovery, follow this procedure:
- power off your phone and power it on in fastboot mode, pressing power + vol down for 2 seconds
- connect your phone to your PC [Windows]
- make sure that proper drivers are installed
- download this .zip archive
- extract it on your C: drive - so you have the directory C:\adb
- move into C:\adb the .img file of the recovery you want to flash
- shift+right click on an empty space into adb folder
- select "open command window here" from the context menu
- in CMD, type fastboot devices
- if the output shows an alphanumeric string, then the phone is correctly recognized, otherwise make sure your PC has your phone drivers correctly installed
- flash your recovery with this command:
fastboot flash recovery CWM_recovery_6.0.5.1_R11_furniel.img
or
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.0-aries-20150221.img
