[INDEX] Google Nexus 4 - ROMs, Kernels, MODs,Guides, Recoveries, Themes [10 Apr 2013]

Hello Folks!! Welcome to the Index of ROMs from the Android Development Forum for Google Nexus 4. :highfive:
I just started using this forum and found that there was no index thread to navigate easily to different roms,kernels,etc.So i decided to create an Index for Nexus 4 android development
This index is not yet complete,i am trying to index all the stuff but it will take some time till then bear with me
First of all, which ROMs are included here? Well, I just search and choose the active threads (even if the ROM doesn’t have any recent updates) must. Perhaps you can find some outdated ROMs that are still functional. Please remember, the most important thing is to read the thread of the ROM that you choose, take a look at the benefits, user reviews, bugs, FAQ, etc. And then, flash it. Of course all the feedback is welcome, if you see some wrong information or want to see a ROM added/removed, you can post a reply in this thread or send me a PM.
Some useful info for beginners:
4.x.x is the Android version.
AOKP stands for Android Open Kang Project
CM is CyanogenMod
JDQ39 is the most recent build number as on 10th of april.

I'd recommend asking this in the CM10.1 thread, seeing as there are multiple versions of it (epinter vs Hashcode). Also, if you want help you're going to need to give more info than that. Were you on 4.1.2 when you flashed? Which gapps package did you use? Which thread was the ROM from? And of course, when you flashed did you wipe everything first?

[Q] OTG with [ROM-AOSP] Unofficial CM11.0 KFire HD 7" (KK 4.4_r1.2) [11/25 BETA]

Hi Everybody
Does anybody know if USB OTG works with [ROM-AOSP] Unofficial CM11.0 KFire HD 7" (KK 4.4_r1.2) [11/25 BETA] ?
Do you know if USB OTG works with CyanogenMod 11.0 ?
Because on mine it doesn't work ? It's normal ?
And do you have a solution ?
Thanks a lots
OTG doesn't work with it.

Thanks a lots for your answer :good:
Accoring to this article http://www.xda-developers.com/android/yet-another-reason-to-update-to-android-4-3-trim-support/
trim supported was added to Android 4.3
Anyone knows if it will be possible to include trim support for KFHD 7 Android 4.4?

Any ROM available for Kindle Fire 7"? (4th gen)?

I want another ROM for Kindle Fire 7" (4th gen), but I can't find any.
I've currently followed the guide [here](http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-hd/general/how-to-upgrade-to-lollipop-root-gapps-t3163950), but I am not very satisfied with it. I am now running Fire OS 5 and using the 5.2.2u2 bootloader.
Is there any ROM recommended / how do I use the current ROM (e.g. CM 11)? Also, if I use ROM like CM 11, which version should I use, and what bootloader do I have to flash?

Just to be clear, the tablet I believe you are referring to is the Amazon Fire 7" (not HD).
As of right now, the answer to your question depends on which version of FireOS your new tablet ships with. If it is a version lower than 5.1.3 then it can be rooted, before installing [ROM][UNOFFICIAL] CM-12.1 [20 Apr 2016]
FireOS 5.0.1, 5.1.1 or 5.1.2: Root it using the SuperTool by carefully choosing the correct options corresponding to the exact version you have.
FireOS 5.1.2.1: Download version 5.1.2 from this link and downgrade to it using the apply update from ADB option in stock recovery, then root it using the SuperTool as above.
FireOS 5.1.3: No method of rooting this particular version has been confirmed (yet).
Warning: Do not attempt to downgrade from 5.1.2 to 5.1.1 or from 5.1.1 to 5.0.1 - doing so will brick your device.
You may also want to consider an alternative ROM for this device, such as one of these:
[ROM][AOSP] Fire Nexus ROM - LMY49J [20 Apr 2016]
[ROM] SlimLP 5.1.1 for Amazon Fire 2015 (Ford)
[ROM] Resurrection-Remix-LP-v5.5.9 Amaz�³n Fire 2015 (Ford) (17-12-2015)
BTW, similar questions have been asked recently here and here.

Just to be clear, the tablet I believe you are referring to is the Amazon Fire 7" (not HD).
As of right now, the answer to your question depends on which version of FireOS your new tablet ships with. If it is a version lower than 5.1.3 then it can be rooted, before installing [ROM][UNOFFICIAL] CM-12.1 [20 Apr 2016]
FireOS 5.0.1, 5.1.1 or 5.1.2: Root it using the SuperTool by carefully choose the correct options corresponding to the exact version you have.
FireOS 5.1.2.1: Download version 5.1.2 from this link and downgrade to it using the apply update from ADB option in stock recovery, then root it using the SuperTool as above.
FireOS 5.1.3: No method of rooting this particular version has been confirmed (yet).
Warning: Do not attempt to downgrade from 5.1.2 to 5.1.1 or from 5.1.1 to 5.0.1 - doing so will brick your device.
You may also want to consider an alternative ROM for this device, such as one of these:
[ROM][AOSP] Fire Nexus ROM - LMY49J [20 Apr 2016]
[ROM] SlimLP 5.1.1 for Amazon Fire 2015 (Ford)
[ROM] Resurrection-Remix-LP-v5.5.9 Amazón Fire 2015 (Ford) (17-12-2015)

Is there a good chance it will be 5.1.2 or 5.1.2.1

Some stores like Frys and probably Microcenter have them in stock. I bought one the other week and it was 5.1.1, no shipping fees either.
