[ROM][PA 3.99][Minimal GApps]SwagDroid - Nexus 4 Android Development

Hi there!
This is the first ROM I've ever made, so bear with me
This is SwagDroid. This ROM is made to completely redefine Android and the way we use it!
It comes with some basic apps, and some bare-bones GApps.
By the way, the name is completely ironic, I just wanted a funny name xD
SwagDroid is based on Paranoid Android 3.99 and is based on JSS (AOSP) And JWR66Y (Stock) in order to stop lag spikes.
I didn't package it with Franco Kernel because I wasn't sure if everyone likes it, but I'd HIGHLY recommend it. It increases battery life, changes the screen, and makes the keyboard vibrations longer (seems stupid but it's awesome xD (Oh, and I know it's just a setting.)).
Anyways, enough chit-chat. Let's get to links.

Changelog:
Build 4.
Added boot animation
Changed default background
Re-themed a couple things
Build 5.
Playing around with things and trying to make boot animation work!
Thanks!

so the difference between this and pa is just apps??

At the moment, kinda x.x;
I'm planning on doing custom wallpapers and a lot of other stuff, but it also has ViperSound Mod Included
EDIT: Oh, and it comes with minimal GApps, it's not really a feature, just throwing it out there x.x;

As others might have the same question as me,
What is the version?? JSS? JWR?? JSQ??? I know PA 3.99 is based on JSS and Y but still want to get clarified.

Yeah haha it's JSS and JWR66Y xD
Sorry about that, I'll add it to the OP

Would you consider adding features to your Rom nothing much, just some convenient stuff?
And yeah compile it with franco, always flash the kernel after every update or maybe the franco mod, got a little more battery with the mod

i dont see the point of this rom...
I'm sorry but this rom is completely pointless, right now it is identical to the cm nightly and only creates fragmentation, and even when this rom changes it will probably just be some apk's added or removed, and that in my opinion is pointless, because it only creates confusion.
In addition since this is based on a nightly build unless the "developer" (and i put that in quotes for a reason) of this rom updates it every single day its going to be out of date compared to the actual nightly cm build.
and yes I realize that I probably come off as rude in this post, but It always annoys me when people takes a rom, makes a couple of small changes and then post it as their own rom, when in reality they just took a rom that someone worked hard on and just made a small change to it.
I fully agree with you.

make sense.
I'm sorry but the above comments are completely out of context and pointless...
You're missing the point of free custom roms here, navlem has posted an early release rom which 'in time' will be an alternate to stock CM Gingerbread with tweaks and additions for the LG Optimus 2X phone specifically... he is a good modder and i have no doubt he will bring us a good rom.
This is as he stated in the first post, an 'Alpha' which means he is working on it to improve and change it.
NEVER put down a modder for any works he submits to us for FREE, if u don't like the works, do not use it and move on, simple.

I'm not missing the point, I fully realize what the point of custom roms are, however this is not a custom rom, this is the first cm nighly rom rebranded, that is all that this rom is currently, and that is pointless, and I do realize that navlem will probably change a couple of small things later that will make this rom a little bit different from the official cm. but if everyone decided to uploade "custom" roms that only differed slightly from the rom they are based on then that creates fragmentation and confusion. How would you feel if you had worked weeks to make a truly custom rom, and then as soon as you had shared it with the world, somebody decided to add one application to it and then re-uploaded it as their own rom? you would probably be annoyed right?
And that is what navlem just did(well as far as I know he didn't even add an app)
Don't get me wrong I am in no way discouraging people from trying to make positive changes to a rom, but those changes has to be more than simply changing a couple of apps.
well, regardless of all of that, the fact that this rom, right now, is pointless, is something not even you can deny, if navlem really wanted to release a so called "custom" rom then he should at the very least changed it in some way.
And trust me I don't have anything against navlem, but when someone simply takes a rom and rebrands it without changing anything then I get annoyed so please forgive me for acting like a jerk on this particular discussion. I'm usually a pretty nice person.

I understand what you mean.
There are subtle changes made in this ROM but the aim of this first alpha build is to let people test out and give me feedbacks and ideas how to go about improving this rom. This v0.1 is just a first step to open up to the people out here who have ORD and interact with them to see what they really like in a ROM.
That's how it happened for BlazingDragon ROM in my other thread. I received PMs stating that they wants to try my latest version to test and they keep giving me feedbacks and ideas for future updates. That's how I liked it to be.
True enough, v0.1 of the BlazingDragon2x ROM did not make alot of changes to shift away from the shadows of CM. But slowly it will.
I hope not to cause any controversy or start any wars of any kind. If more people are against me creating another ROM on CM7 nightly. I'll just back down, close this thread, and concentrate on my previous ROM.
Thanks for being honest

gosh darn it, how am I supposed to criticize you when you act so nice to me , well I guess I can see what you mean, and I do respect you for wanting to help the community, the main reason for me being annoyed is the fact that you released this rom without changing anything (as far as I know) instead of waiting for a while and then release a rom that was actually different from cm, In addition its never recommended to base your rom off a unstable rom, so In my opinion you should have waited until a stable version of cm7 was available, and again I don't have anything against people like you, the only problem is that there are usually a lot of people like you in most of these forums, and if everyone of you decided to create their own rom then that would create a mess of almost identical roms, which would hurt the community, and thats what Is why I was a little annoyed at you creating this rom. I simply want to prevent this forum from being overrun by roms, and I hope that you can respect my side of this argument, but In hindsight I kinda overreacted and came off as kind of a jerk, so sorry for acting so mean to you, nothing personal
navlem, I do appreciate your good work and your willingness to share; however I also share the sentiments expressed by mikael120.
I would also suggest that if a Rom is heavily based on someone's work, then the thread title/header should carry a notation bearing the original Rom's codename. For example, both FearKill and TK roms make reference to Modaco and/or Fr12 in their thread titles/headers. This gives due credit to the original developer, and also makes it easier for guys like us to quickly identify the source of the Rom.

[Q] Hi guys,new here!

So I just got a Galaxy Note N-7000 from my dad,and it is already rooted,
but I'm looking to replace my ROM so I have a few questions (hope this is the right place to open this thread in,if not - sorry in advance):
1.Can anyone recommend a JB based rom with nice (not the most important factor to me) design,that mainley runs smooth and FC-free?
[Also very important to me - I need something I can install hebrew on)
2.Does anybody know any JB based roms that have full hebrew support?
[This is the only one I have found :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2208589
and I'm not so sure about it,any feedbacks for pros&cons for this ROM will be greatly appreciated. ]
Thank you!

Welcome!
That is a nice TW (stock samgsung software) based rom, with some tweaks and a diferent kernel you can make it really fast.
On the other hand, as you said you want it to look good I'd recommend you to use VengeanceNote TW, as it's MIUI over the TW base. It is fast. It is beautiful. I'm not sure about the hebrew support tough, you might want to head to the thread and ask there. The dev, Gerrett, is preetty nice and wil most definitely help you as much aas he can.
If you want to use an AOSP ( Google software ) I'd most definitely recommend you Asylum + NX Kernel. This is as fast as my note has ever been. Don't worry about everyone on the thread being crazy tough. Thay are nice after you get used to them
Anyway, good luck with your phone You'll love it

First of all - thank you very much for your quick comment
It's good to meet nice and kind people like you! :good:
Second of all - about that VenganceNote TW - it looks very nice but I had a very bad experience with MIUI on my old SGS,
tons of FC and sometimes I coulden't take calls.
Do you know if this one is stable?
Also,do you know anything about this one ? :

You're lucky then, I had FC on all ROMs i've used on my SGS
I've used VengeanceNote for a long time. It is very stable indeed. Only problem i could remember is that it had a duplicated root manager app, but if you opened the right one you would have no problem at all. I'm just waiting for a custom kernel to support it so i can jump back to it.
Never used Carbon Rom itself, but from what i've experienced with this all-in-one roms, they're not very stable.
I'd say if you're interested on AOSP Asylum is the way to go. It's really clean and fast. And if you don't like the all black look you can always install CM10 themes

I think that would be great,as I said I'm looking for a fast,clean ROM and Asylum sounds perfect,
just 2 more small questions:
1.About that kernel you've recommended,is it mendatory to install with Asylum or I can just stick with my PhilZ kernel ?
2.I would love it if you could explain to me how to install some CM10 themes and where to get them !

Nop, you can use phlz for flashing, but Asylum will overwrite it with CM10 kernel. But i recommend flashing NX after you flashed the rom. It has OC support and GPU clock control. It makes things really smooth.
About the themes you can get them on play store or on some threads here on xda. A quick google search for "CM10 theme" will show you lots of results.

Ummm,actually no,my dad just recommended it to me he said PhilZ is one of the best kernels developers out there,
and that its very safe to use his recovery (maybe I didn't understand correctly but I heard there was a problem some time ago with
ICS kernels/wiping or something,and that this phone got bricked once because of that)
He also said speedmod is great,but I dunno that guy or his kernels lol.

Indeed he's a great dev, and he saved many of us from bricking our devices
On stock samsung kernels, there's a bug, that when you wipe your data partition on recovery it corrupt's the memory chip, rendering it useless. So if you are going to use stock roms on your phone, either don't wipe or stick to safe kernels.
On the other hand, the AOSP kernels don't show such behaviour and are generally safe. So if your going with Asylum, don't worry. You're safe.

No, unfortunatelly you can't add thos features on any AOSP rom. Neither those nor Snote and other TW apps.
VengeanceNote include them tough. Seems you have to make your choice
No problem man I felt lost when i've changed my phone, and if someone haven't made the same thing for me i would have probably bricked it

[Q] Best Rom Question? NO!

Hello there, Im getting an xperia Z today!
I have been on this forums with the nexus 7 and the defy, and generally you get to know all the roms trying them by yourself then choosing the one most suitable for your needs
BUT there is always a general line if you are searching for more customizable roms or innovative, as well as stock roms with tweaks that improve performance, efficiency and battery life..
Can an experienced user which has tried many roms of this phone tell me their general impresions? what are the main feature/differences among the most used and updated roms?
THANK YOU!
You cant ask for best rom cause are all different, btw PAC is more personalizable than others

Agreed, each rom brings its own features and bugs. There may be a lot of roms based off of CM, AOKP, and AOSP, but there's a reason why there are so many variations. Just try them out for yourself and see which one you prefer. (and yes, PACman ROM is highly customizable, mostly due to the fact that it brings together Paranoid Android, AOKP, and CM.
Sent from my HTC One
AOSP-style ROMs (based on the CM/TeamFXP sources) are incredibly stable on this device as the other commenters have mentioned. But I have to say, the stock ROM is no slouch either! It is very close to AOSP and I recommend giving it (upgraded to 4.2.2, release .423, of course) a chance before unlocking the bootloader to install CyanogenMod or similar. Oh and if you are planning on unlocking bootloader, save a backup of your TA partition first so that you can return the phone to stock if you ever want to sell the device (highly doubtful ) or if you just want to give "feature X that Sony added in Android OS 13.37" a go.

What is the feature X that Sony added in Android OS 13.37?
I have C6603 kernel 3.4.0 gba 62870 and comp. 10.3.A.0.423
Is this the "best" or "latest" stock? cause no update shows up ^^
Im having a really good experience and many users signatures show that they are in stock, so I don't know if I should start trying other roms and if I should wait more features and functionalities come out..
Im really concerned with the nav bar.. I think it should be able to reduce the size of the nav bar, enable tablet mode (only 1 bar at the bottom and Auto-Hide it, I have this in my nexus 7 and it really improves the experience of having a bigger screen) Do you know if this is enable in any xperia rom?

The only ROM I know of which allows more control of the navbar (besides configuring buttons which is available in CyanogenMod) is AOKP (and PA of course, but that is cheating by modifying the DPI). There was a guy who made some mods for the stock ROMs to have thinner navbars, I haven't had the chance to try them yet though.

"Best" Stock MM optimized rom

Hey guys I am looking for a rom that has some added features and added optimization similar to cataclysm but on the latest security base 30. i dont like aosp due to bugs and some stability issues. but i am kinda looking for something with a little better performance than just base stock since i know there can be lots of little tweaks made to optimize the stock builds. again i dont want a hybrid aosp or cm based build a pure stock optimized rom would be what im looking for similar to cataclysm. let me know what your using and how you like it.

"Which ROM is best" threads don't pan out too well on this site, mainly because the bulk of the people reading the thread will hawk the ROM they are using, without regard to what you may actually be looking for. The only way you're going to know which ROM works best for you is by installing them yourself and trying them out.
I'm a long time user of XDA and I guess my post could be interpreted as a looking for "best" I'm more just finding difficulty with hownto tell if a rom is cm aosp or stock Google fiware modified. I'm new to the Nexus scene, I've been on HTC devices for ages . and the real issue is like ive stated I've found after trying almost every ROM in the dev thread I have a few faves like PA or RR but they are slightly under developed since based on aosp or cm. I'm looking for a stock Google firmware that has been optimized . BTW my current go to is graveyard bybthe skydragon team which is amazing but I really miss that cataclysm build with all the options it had.

[KERNEL] [Android 12] [v12.9] MVK - Maximum Velocity Kernel

For those familiar with Velocity Rom this is the kernel I build for it. Velocity hasnt been on XDA as a rule so Im sure not many are familiar. Velocity is my personal Rom Ive been building for years and have shared with all that are interested. This isnt and will never be an "official development project" but will always exist as long as I continue to develop Android roms.
Velocity is focused on speed, stability, and efficiency and not on adding every imaginable feature. As this is my personal Rom it will have everything I deem useful to me and/or that doesnt compromise the goals of the project.
I dont add every conceivable governor, I/O scheduler, or other user tweakable options. In fact, I typically remove all the options and keep the best. This is designed as a plug and play kernel, not something to be changed. Its also not designed for other Roms.
Please do not ask for features, ETA's, or related. Again, this is my personal kernel for my personal Rom and will be shared accordingly. That said, I do encourage healthy, friendly dialog in my threads.
Flashing instructions
1) Reboot to bootloader
2) Fastboot boot 'bootimage_name'.img to make sure it boots with no issues
3) Reboot to bootloader again
4) Fastboot flash boot 'bootimage_name'.img
5) Buckle up for safety - optional of course

Thanks for this!
It's great to see another person building for our device. Not that the others aren't doing great work, but the more the merrier.
Once Q source drops, the real fun will begin. I can see potential for crazy speed and battery life over 10 hrs SOT on Q. Im coming from Shamu (Nexus 6) so this is quite a change in use and development. I think Im getting a good handle on what makes it tick though.
Question, am running bootleggers rom, kernel flashed fine and everything smooth, only thing wifi was broken, I wiped dalvik and restart phone issue still persist.

Not surprising. This is why I stated it works on stock but no idea on custom ROMs. I can cook a boot image if you want to try that, but that would also be based on stock.
Boot image is up in the same folder if you want to try that, but this really is designed to run on either my Rom or stock. Once velocity is out I won't be building stand alone kernels.

My bad I overlooked that part.. Understood, I'll wait till you cook up the rom and rock with it.. Thanks in advance
Android 10 kernel coming soon. Got it all working correctly now. Will be a magisk patched boot.img for now as that seems to work best.
I don't see any files in the pixel 3a xl folder
Which file is the correct one to download? Folders are showing as empty?

I just updated all the folders and OP. I just uploaded the build to the current link in the OP.
Kernel flashed great....running it now. Will reply soon on overall usage. I flashed it through EX kernel manager.
V10.1 uploaded......see changelog for differences

And so it begins. Thank you my friend!
Yes, expect a lot of builds for the next week or two. I'm trying to work on the ROM side too but 10 is very different than Pie and so it's slow going.
Works nicely. Thanks for your effort!

How is your battery life compared to the previous version?
Wasn't on it long enough but I would expect they would be the same. Honestly I won't get a good battery cycle until I'm done getting this where I want it. I'm already several versions newer than 10.1

Well, thank you for your continued work.
v10.2 up
I had an issue with touchscreen not working when waking up from sleep on 10.2. I use the fingerprint and if i unlock the phone from sleep (always on display showing) touch wont work but if i wake it, switch off the screen with the button and unlock again quickly then it's ok. Reverted to 10.1
