Just wondering what is everyone's take on a lot developers deciding to make a lot mixed ROMs lately instead of good old single fast and stable.
Don't get me wrong because you can see that great talented minds have been used when all these ROMs are compiled.
Free question for all...would you rather see more mixed ROMs come into future or Friendly competitive variation?
Just wanted to see other peoples views...personally plain AOKP with a few tweaks does it for me. But at times I find myself using a 3 in 1 ROM just because I know the developer is talented but have no use for extras like PA or CM settings or even touch them at all.

i actually prefer simple roms , like eos or rasbeanjelly ... more than aokp and cm or pa . sometimes i feel like most of the features are just hurting my phone somehow haha ... so stabilty and optimization are the priority for me than features . so more original roms are my choice always .
If they can make it run good then props to them, but I stay on PA
Hello, my name is AgentCherryColla. I'm a big fan of AOKP, but we don't have a current build. So I'm taking on the Project head on. There will be 3 phases.
1) Pirate Builds.
The Pirate builds will be based of the RC builds of CM10.1, and (possibly) the Nook Tablet. These will most likely have broken features, and might just be fun to test out and see.
2) Elementary Builds.
These will be builds based of AOSP source. I will build AOSP 4.2.X and build AOKP for the Nook Tablet. Then port over AOKP. These builds will have....
×Speed Tweaks
×Slimmed Down
×Netflix Fix
×Custom Built CM10.1 Launcher
During this time I'll work on getting 100% soucre builds going.
3) Unofficial : WizardLife AOKP
This will be the final phase. Builds with no copypasta ports. Pretty Much like MRom, but AOKP based.
This will take time. Expect builds Maybe Sunday? I'll keep this updated as much as possible. I pretty much have no life this summer outside work, and the lady. So expect to see progress, just slowly.
If anybody has any tips, guides, speed tweaks, kernel tweaks, etc. Let me know. I'll try my best to make it happen.
THANKS

Yes! Will flash and report right away!
Update: Took my time to test it, restore my apps, test them and mess a little with the options.
Update 2: After spending even more time with the newest release, this is practically a 0 issues ROM. I'll update my review along with new releases.
My micro SD 32gb works perfectly, if you have a 64gb card I would recommend to be formatted as "exFAT".
Smooth ROM and good RAM usage.
Packed with awesome features and I know there's more to come, CarbonRoms has A LOT of features. From changing status bar colors(and it's icons) to edit the menu and back buttons lights duration and remap the buttons(love it), see screenshots in the OP to have an idea.
No issues at all restoring my apps with Titanium Backup.
Stylus is working perfectly and this ROM has the Buttons settings for our device.
Camera is now working perfectly and more features are being added!
*Remember to do a full wipe clean install.*
Two things I want to mention, they're not annoying and they do not break the ROM at all.
*Interface option under Carbon Fibers crash, however given the fact that you guys are still merging those nice features I think it's kinda obvious. That's why I don't consider this annoying, nor ROM breaking, is just a work in progress. I thought I could mention this so no one get scare about it.
*This one is not even an issue is just a question, I use this device in landscape mode all the time, and every time I turn off the screen it rapidly rotates the screen before shutting down. There's no option for the effect to select or to turn it off, my question is: Is that one of the features to be added later within carbon fibers interface? I apologize, I used Carbon a lot with my N7 flo but I can't remember where that option was located.
*Both fixed on newest release*

I found out about that crash during my 2 minutes with this rom..I'm assuming its because of them not finished merging stuff yet. I also see multiwindow and halo both on their gerrit so I'm guessing they'll merge those when its stable
I'm not sure since I've never used Carbon before, but I think what you are talking about is describing the bug thats in all of our roms. Its just the animation right? if you turn the screen back on, it stays in landscape mode? Can't test it because I'm not using this rom right now
And also, not sure if you noticed yet, but the back camera doesn't take photos..I'm almost 100% sure CM broke something in the common device tree because the back camera works in omni, so right now I'm figuring that out and transferring all the files to our own common device tree instead of using the one shared by all the smdk devices.
Edit: Confirmed interface crash is due to a recent commit. Should be fixed soon.

Yeah is the animation, I was just curious about it, it doesn't bother. The camera thing actually it doesn't bother me either because I can take pictures with any camera app from the app store.
It may be a work in progress, but for a initial release of this beta is pretty darn good. I'm still using it and I think I'm gonna keep it, I've been a huge fan of Carbon for awhile.

Sorry for the late reply, yes I too can confirm the camera works, I dirty flashed(just cache and dalvik)the update. Later on I did a full wipe clean install to make sure and voila. So now we can surely say there's no issues on this ROM.

Nice! I'm noticing a lot of movement in the gerrit, those are good news. Carbon was my one of my favorite with the Nexus 7 flo, and I'm still surprised by how well and smooth it is on the Note 8, to be honest I wasn't expecting this ROM here, hence why I'm so excited.

Yeah, maybe that
Quick question: I'm noticing quite apparent banding on my screen, especially on white background. And occational white noise splash while turning screen on, is it normal or just because I'm using it on XT905? Seems to be kernel related. I'm actually testing out both Gummy and Carbon, both have the same problem.

This is not made for xt905, so I'm not sure... Do you know how that device differs? I'm not aware of any forum for that device...

Should be almost the same since this is just the GSM version of XT907. By apparent I actually mean noticable by human eyes (on while background). It's has to have something to do with the buffer or refresh rate.
Actually all ROMs with minor modification works fine. Not as smooth as I'd hope ie not smoother than debloated stock 4.1, but all things work, sans the occasional white-noise splash while turning screen on and the annoying band morie pattern.
Another question, do you have any plans ditching the emulated sdcard? It's quite pointless with just about 4GB after a full wipe and you have to share the space with apps.
I can't find out the download package of the xt907, is that true? I love carbon team, the black theme looks really nice

We are working on migrating to a new download site + mirror... as our infrastructure was not up to the task (downloads were REALLY slow).
Hopefully the new setup can handle the load! I'll upload the last build to a mirror.
The banding issue affects all 4.4 roms. I don't know the technical details but it seems 3D acceleration is about 50% slower than 4.2 roms. Since nearly everything is composted in the GPU now, everything seems to suffer from poor frame rates and other graphical anomalies.
which is going to be better as a daily driver this one, or the JB?

Personally I would not recommend anything above 4.2.2/CM10.1 at this stage.
It's fine if you want a test drive, and it's stable enough to be a daily driver.
But it's not as fast and feature-complete. Unless you desperately want the new things (ART etc),
you might have to wait for a while (after official kk for RAZR M/HD) before KitKat roms really take off.

I don't know, I prefer the 4.4 ROMs over 4.2. Personally faster for me. It's just right now if people want a lot of features there aren't going to be as many in 4.4 as there are for 4.2, though that will change. It's only because obviously JB has been out longer, but honestly feature-wise things are catching up.
flashing kitkat, because jb was force close city, hopefully its stable

KitKat is buggier than JB4.2 with our dated kernel/driver, that's a fact. For me the banding issue is a showstopper, period. Feature-wise, I do agree it's getting better, but we live in the moment don't we? Like I said, it's cool if you use it just to test it out, you might even be of help to the devs in identifying bugs.
But if you are asking the question "should I use this as my daily driver", the answer is probably no, otherwise you wouldn't be asking the question in the first place.
the kitkat rom seems to be running ok so far

We are no longer using goo.im. I might've missed a nightly job, I'll doublecheck.
Edit - perhaps someone already fixed it... uploads are going to our new mirror.
Is there an error with the reported signal in the battery options? Cell standby shows very high percentage time without signal, upwards of %50. On stock based roms I have never seen more than %1 time without signal.
Alright, I'll try to keep this short and simple. I have been developing for various devices over the last 2 years (Galaxy Captivate, Galaxy S2, Nexus 4, Kindle Fire Lineup, etc) The Nexus 4 was my main phone, up until recently. I dropped the phone getting out of the car one night, and now the touch screen is completely unresponsive. So I decided to grab a cheap replacement for the time being, while I order a new screen for the N4. I see some devs have gotten several custom ROMs running for this device, awesome job! When I got this phone, I had no idea it would be developer friendly, what a surprise. This lead me to the decision to start compiling something for the L90. What I want to know from everyone here, is what ROM would you like to see on your device? I've gathered up several choices, so I'd like to start a little poll.
My intentions are to either compile something from source, and frequently update it here for everyone. Or to fork over CM, and customize it myself (via cherry-picks, custom wallpapers, optimized toolchains, performance enhancements, etc) However these builds would be less frequent, unless some people were willing to contribute. If so, then feel free to let me know! Also, please ask as many questions, or make as many suggestions as you want. I'm trying to get my post count up lol. All the development I've done prior to this, has been mainly released on Google+. I figured I would target a larger audience here for now though, until I can create a community specifically for the L90 on G+. I'd greatly appreciate any and all feedback!
Great to see such motivated will. What I'd like to see on L90 is completely stable LP rom, doesn't really matter which one, but out of two I had chance to use - which is CM and Ressurection Remix - I'd choose RR. Dunno if devs of roms such as AOKP and billions of others are making/are planning to make LP versions though
agreed, it would be nice to see a fully functioning ROM whether it be kitkat or lollipop. When i say stable i mean video playback and recording working camera quality back to normal (on all roms their is a lack or clarity,crisp,and focus) and good memory management. If you can get those working i don't care what kind of rom is is

What a nice feeling not having D415 thus those problems...
Also, I think it is impossible to get stock LG camera libs to get to work on custom roms, or - at best - it would have take a hell of time. So I guess quality will stay like this forever...
I appreciate all the feedback so far! I'm an android enthusiast for sure. Ever since I used my first custom ROM, which was CM 7 if I'm not mistaking, I fell in love. From there, I spoke with a few developers I had met, and started learning everything about compiling ROMs. They were a huge help, and they also pointed me to some great guides online. After lots of trial and error, I was able to get my first source built ROM booted up, and running. From there on out, I was hooked lol. With that being said, I'd love to build some new custom ROMs for all the L90 users here. Also I have a few questions before I start the process, so if any L90 dev's see this, send me a PM or something. Just curious about a few things, such as unified builds and what not. I'm going to go ahead and set my build machine up, and get it ready to start compilation. But in the meantime, keep the comments/ideas/suggestions coming in! Also, the poll will be up for 14 days, but I'm sure I'll start building something before then

I want a custom kernel with OC and other features.
Just a quick update for everyone. I installed LXLE on a laptop to get my builds going. Unfortunately that distro brought in a lot of headaches. And on top of that, I couldn't get any source to finish a simple sync. (Tried mokee, and cm) I'm not sure why, but my best guess was it had something to do with that screwy LXLE distro. Now I just finished putting Mint on the laptop, so I'll post an update again once I see if the repo sync command will finish without hanging up at 99%
Could you start by a AOSP one? Then go for custom ROM.

MOKEE
Modded stock kernel
A good OC-UC UV kernel would be good for the stock kitkat, i dont need a full rom, its very good with xposed framework! Thanks for your work!
Update
Alright everyone, I got all the issues I was having fixed. Just took some time. Right now, I have MoKee compiling(android version 5.1.0_r5) for the L90. Once it is complete, I'll flash it to make sure it boots up and everything. After that I'll leave a link here for anyone to flash if they want. This is strictly going to be straight MoKee from source, no changes on my end yet. Once I know everything compiles correctly, I'll start optimizing the build and trying to fix any bugs I can. As well as cherry pick features and what not. I'm also looking into the kernel config files so I can try to include a custom kernel(OC/UC and UV) I will start a new thread when all this begins though. Thanks for the support and suggestions so far!
Which L90 do you have? D415?

Yea, I have the D415
Update
So the build almost finished yesterday, but I ran into an OOM error right at the end. I was using an old dual core laptop with 3gb of RAM, which worked fine with JB and KK etc. So I gave it another gig of RAM, and put a lighter desktop environment on it. Everything should go fine from here, see you all soon with another update!

well done
Success!
The MoKee ROM compiled successfully! Now I will fork over repositories to my github, and start the customizations/bug fixes. It will take a little bit before builds start rolling out, but I will start a new thread for that. For those of you that would like to try out the MoKee build, I will upload it and leave a link here shortly. This is straight from source, no changes at all (except what was necessary to get it to compile correctly) It will have all the same issues the latest cm has (camera focus, etc.) I built it from quarx's unified device tree, so it should work on d405, d410, d415. Thanks for everyone's patience!
