Does anyone know what the difference is between AOSP and AOKP?

Well aosp is code taken from Google itself and aokp is the code plus other kanged (taken from other people) things best description I can give I'm sure someone can explain better
Aosp = android open source project
Aokp = android open kang project

Basically AOSP means pure android, compiled from AOSP Google source.
AOKP ROMs are based off AOSP, but include many mods and tweaks. Some come from all over the place, hence the name 'kang'. They are compiled originally from AOSP sources but highly modified.
AOSP is pure Google android
AOKP is a custom ROM project, like CM based on AOSP

Hey all,
Just curious what the difference is between vanilla android and the one by cmod. I know they are both similar to the stock android OS but did not understand anything more than that. Can someone please elaborate?
Thank you.
not development related, please move to Q&A or General.
CyanogenMod is based on AOSP. AOSP = Android Open Source Project (android as google designed it). CyanogenMod makes improvements and changes and tweaks to AOSP.
it's all down to preference, but most people agree CM is an improved version of AOSP.
Hi all,
This is a noob question. What is the difference between an AOSP rom and an AOKP rom.
Thanks in advance

Aokp is aosp. Android open source project. Aokp is just the name. Just a rom based (kanged on Google ics and other aosp from source like cm9/cna

No.. pure android is vanilla..
Aosp like any other open source project adds improvements and twraks to pure android source which is what aokp, cm9 cna do. making them aosp . aokp just a name...

so in short
AOSP - Basic Android Source Project (no Customizations) like Oxygen
AOKP - Improved versions of AOSP like CyanogenMod??
and what's the difference between aosp roms and stock roms, besides e.g. preinstalled samsung apps?
aosp = android open source project
aokp = android open kang project (link https://sites.google.com/site/androidopenkangproject/)

It's not really about the Samsung/Sense apps more about the whole "layer" that i.e. Samsung/HTC put over the basic rom, (touchwiz and sense in the case of samsung/htc).
So if you'd take those layers/apps away you would just have the basis which is just AOSP.
Hi guys
Can someone professional explain what is the exact differance among these code providers? :beer:

AOSP - Android Open Source Project - unmodified clean Android without additional features, vanilla Android
CM - CyanogenMod - an aftermarket firmware for a number of cell phones based on the open-source Android operating system. It offers features not found in the official Android based firmwares of vendors of these cell phones.
AOKP - Android Open Kang Project - something like CM, but different
Try to use Google, it will answer all your questions.
I have been looking on your site for a good 6 hours for a ROM that supports PDroid can anyone give me a link to one I have a galaxy s i9000! Thank you for your attention.
I don't think any of the roms natively support PDroid.
I have never used PDroid, but from its descriptions it seems that you can patch any AOSP rom yourself.
Aosp?

Pardon my noobieness Aosp? I tried patching a stock deodexed rom like the description says but when I flash the patch it gets stuck in bootloop. Any tips?
Stock deodexed is not AOSP. AOSP means android open source project. Stock means rom made by Samsung that contains proprietary codes. You want to use roms such as cyanogen mod and android open kang project AOSP.

Could you maybe get me an aosp rom that supports pdroid or an already patched one? Please and thanks for your help.
Just look inside the development section. Any thing that says android open kang or open source is AOSP. Cyanogen mod is also AOSP. None of the are patched so far as I know

Hi Xda Forum
I was wondering will the google edition based roms ever have tweaks like cm10,aokp, etc with the stability of the stock google edition rom because in most aosp roms the front facing camera has a green tint and overall rom is not as stable also something like nfc don't work and the scrolling isnt as smooth
CM, AOKP and GE are all distinctly different ROMs and are unlikely to merge. So no, the GE editions ROMs will never be like CM or AOKP because then guess what... they'd be CM or AOKP!

I didn't ask if they would ever merge lol I asked if Google edition roms will ever get any kind of tweaks, aokp and cm were just examples of stock aosp roms with mods to the system.
Do you even bother to do 30 seconds research before asking stupid questions?
No need to be rude...but im aware of all of the GE ROMs out currently and none of them compare to the aosp roms out when it comes to customization that's what I'm looking for
I agree the AOSP based ROMs for HTC One (CyanogenMod, Paranoid Android, etc.) are still pretty buggy. I'm seeing battery drain, Google sync problems, camera tint, and font rendering issues.
I think it's still a bit early for AOSP-based ROMs (builds compiled from source) for the HTC One. It doesn't help that Google and/or HTC haven't released all the needed source and binary blobs. So for now we have buggy builds from source, or more solid builds from the GE dumps but with far less customization.
There is one GE ROM you might try that offers a few more tweaks via a secondary flashable zip: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39184446&postcount=3
