Hi, based on former experience I am happy to present 4.4.3 Liscio Fast Forward. Few modifications which were carefully chosen. Feel free to post your feature request here but be aware this will always stay as close as possible to stock.
Please flash this with Gapps of your choice. I used BaNkS (GApps.Core)

Downloads and feature list in the second post; and for screenshots, have a look at the third post.
I can not take any responsibility damaging your device or alarm clock which will not come off. If you decide to flash my ROM, you are getting responsible yourself. Have a functioning Nandroid in case something goes wrong.

Nice, gonna try soon!

Root doesn't seem to be working, went in to superuser and tried flipping it disabled and then back to app and adb with no luck. Flashed the latest SuperSU in the meantime. Otherwise so far so good, and it is probably the fastest/most fluid rom I've tried ART on so far.
LOL, and it put me back to stock recovery... Ahh, not sure if you meant to leave it in there, but stock recovery is in the rom zip.

Hi, thanks for the feedback. Interesting about the root and stock recovery. Anybody else having these issues? I had a look and found the same source tree after compilation than in my Hammerhead folder....did you open a Terminal and executed $su to see if the superuser is working? I usually do and found no issues. I will check and see what other users say..
Hi, updated one line in the Android.mk for the Superuser. New version is up and can be downloaded. Hope improves your issues on SU. I have none on my Hammer.....
UPDATE - SU is not working. Just compiling new version. Give me 30 minutes.
How is the battery life on this? Are you using stock kernel?
CaN this be run on dalvik as I'm using xposed modules
Thanks dev, :good:

Stock recovery is still in the zip file, unless I'm totally off base here... But it did put me back to stock recovery again.
And I still get a Sorry test failed, feature cannot run on your device when I try to activate Root access in things like ES File Explorer.

Hi, nevermind on the recovery. You will stay on what you had before. For the root, did you download the latest version? I can compile from scratch in case the modification was not implemented. I am just puzzled since I had 0 problems on my Hammerhead build (and old Mako 4.2.2).

No, in terms of recovery, when I flashed the rom it also flashed stock recovery. So, it got rid of CWM and put me on stock recovery. And yes, I downloaded the latest rom and still had root issues.

Hi, I do not know how to help as I never had recovery problems on my ROMs. I also re-compiled and flashed on my Hammerhead and recovery remained TWRP...hope other users can report something. I also pm'ed you to get more information. I recommend you flash Googles 4.4.2 factory image and then TWRP and my ROM (or any other ROM). Then the baseline should be ok. Head up, it can not be a big issue...

I have had no issues with my recovery being wiped. I am using milti-rom though if that makes a difference.
Great rom by the way. I love the smoothness.
It just feels slightly smoother than other roms when scrolling in google+ and the xda app, and I havent switched to art yet.
Hey sir I've been trying several Roms all of them fast but this one has a slight advantage, I am liking it very much, will you add any more features that won't sacrifice the speed, is cm theming possible on aosp?
---------- Post added at 06:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:36 PM ----------
Oh I failed to mention there is one issue that I'm having, my GPS won't locate locations, so navigation is not working, but has always worked on other Roms, anyone else experiencing this? Is it possible to include LTE to permanently stay and is it possible to change the 4g icon to LTE

Yeah weather location don't work either. I had to manually add location to the genie news and weather widget.

Hi guys, thanks for the feedback. First of all, does the embedded superuser work?
I will look into the location problem......
Update: Checked location on my Hammerhead and works. Since we use the same source tree, I suppose should work on Mako too. If really not, I need to change the vendor files.
I think it may not be working because I can't use root access on file manager, as far as GPS, it worked when I was outside so it may not be an issue but it normally works when I'm inside as well

Hi folks,
There seem already many AOSP builds for NS, but I'm just pleased to share my personal build with you. I took the Google source and CM kernel/vendor as a base and have done lots of optimization work. My changes for NS after forking CM vendor were listed in the changelog of the initial build. Devs can check out commits on my github. It may worth a note that it's AOSP so never request extra features. No doubt I will keep it as stock as possible.
Credits:
clearly go to CM Team and all worked for our NS

Final Build | MD5: 47af680bd273732d751de65656f62f7e
I don't hold the Nexus S any more, so if something in the final build does stupid for you, fall back to Build 6. And at last thank you again for your support.
Issues:
panorama preview. Check out CataHd's reply for the fix.
android-4.4.3-r1.1 build can be found in this reply. Panorama issue has been fixed.
You can find out all changes on my Github. Remember that AOSP ROM doesn't include Gapps, you have to install/flash it yourself.
Cheers,

I tried changing settings in Superuser, every option works like charm. I always chased the changes of Superuser by Koush and the hack in that Superuser zip was included in my ROM. Afaik the tweak is just to run '/system/bin/su --daemon' for the root requirement.
OK, anyone else got superuser issue? xD

Very good job. So happy to see the deveopment for our old phone continues.
Now, I can confirm Superuser doesn't work. Flashing SuperSU from recovery fixed the issue pretty fast.
Other than that the ROM is very solid and smooth. I tested SMS, Location services, Wi-Fi, left phone without a charge for a night. No problems so far. Will test bluetooth streaming later today in my car.
I have the same issue with calendar like any other non google build has, I have two of them, one is AOSP build another is Google's from the play store. That doesn't bother me.
Also, I still want to know what kind of "optimization" was done. Also, can anyone test MTP for me? I turned it on using USB Switcher, but my computer didn't recognize the device.
Great job, I hope the project continues.
@leap_ahead, velishka:
Let's rule out some exceptions about Superuser issue. Did you do factory reset before flashing? I hope the old Superuser app didn't make noise. Although you guys have fixed it manually, I still hope someone can paste the output of command 'getprop persist.sys.root_access' and check if the /system/xbin/su is running when you can't get root permissions. Thank you.
Hey,
just had a closer look at your build and found the interesting property 'ro.sys.fw.bg_apps_limit' in your build.prop which is set to 8. Are you sure this works in your build ? (I only ask because this was seen only in CM until now)...

Used this baby for 3 days now and have to say that it has the best memory management for 'low-memory' devices i've seen until now. Whatever you did cn.fyodor, very good work. !
I've noticed that CM has already reverted the commit for property 'ro.sys.fw.bg_apps_limit'. You should take care that this is not reverted in your sources because IMHO this is one of the essential things which gives us this better memory management. The relevant part can be found in line 105 of https://github.com/Juansheng/androi...s/java/com/android/server/am/ProcessList.java in your github.

Thanks for your suggestion. Actually I once changed MAX_HIDDEN_APPS back the default value in Gingerbread for low memory devices nine months ago. Check this commit. ro.sys.fw.bg_apps_limit was just introduced by Codeaurora recently. And yeah CM have already reverted this prop and added a new prop for high memory (> 1.5GB) devices since more CM supported devices hold more memories nowadays. I'll ignore that commit.

Also how do you change the hardware keys and when you reboot the app in the far right corner on the dock is taken off a reboot.

anybody else having errors flashing this latest weekly?
Loving the app overall, but I can't figure out how to customize the hardware keys either. As of right now, if the app doesn't include a software menu button, there's no way to press menu unless you enable the navigation bar and just deal with the redundant buttons.

Anyone more users with feedback? Love Slim on my phone and would like to introduce my friend who just picked up an M7 as long as there are no major bugs. Normally I would test a rom myself, but can't under the circumstances.

I've been using for a about a week, and I like it so far overall...One issue I'm having however, is that every time I leave wifi, I have to toggle airplane mode to get me 3g/4g to kick in. Don't know what's causing that?
Also where are all the Slim features I've come to love with SlimBean!! I miss my horizontal notification toggles, among other things. Hopefully be here with an update soon?

Themes
Hyy @Flinny are you planning on adding the theme chooser engine in the ROM?
the options in this rom are all mixed in with aosp stock settings, makes no sense at all to set it up that way, very hard to navigate and find the custom stuff

That's the exact opposite to most of the feedback we got about it, things are in their logical places.. Display stuff is under display... Navigation stuff under Navigation, I personally see no reason for things to be split off, it makes things less intuitive when you have 2 sets of display settings etc.

How to Install:
Peform a full nandroid backup.
Note that this firmware will NOT function properly with another kernel.
If you already have the full 28A bootstack and are running TWRP 2.8.5.1 or higher, you may skip the next step.
Flash the 28A bootstack found in the VS980 Resources thread in this forum.
Wipe data/cache within twrp. You should leave internal storage alone. If you fail perform this step and have any issues while running the firmware, start this whole install process again and follow this step before posting.
Flash the latest firmware version below after verifying the md5.
If you plan on using ART (and ONLY if), you should also flash the patch below or you will have constant IMS service restarts. Keep in mind that flashing this disables Verizon Advanced Calling. There is a revert zip if you wish to go back to Dalvik and want Advanced Calling.
Kernel options:
This is a trimmed down kernel built for speed/stability/efficiency. I'm not interested in a bloated kernel with every governor/module/cherry pick du jour and never will be. I prefer using my phone, not obsessing over countless "tweaks".
Turn on CAF touchboost by creating /sdcard/touchboost file and rebooting. If the file is empty, boost freq is 1036800 Hz. If you want a different one, just put the value inside the text file (no spaces). Valid options are (422400, 652800, 729600, 883200, 960000, 1036800, 1190400, 1267200, 1497600, 1574400, 1728000, 1958400, 2265600). If you don't know what touchboost is, search.
Switch to Interactive governor by creating /sdcard/interactive file and rebooting. This will also enable a kernel-based hotplug governor (thanks to @show-p1984) that works better with this governor.
Enable SEAndroid permissive mode by creating /sdcard/permissive file and rebooting.
If you wish to restore data using Titanium Backup or some other app, you are welcome to do so, but if you encounter problems, you must follow these steps again WITHOUT restoring data before posting.

Changelog:
Version 1.2.0:
Fix FC on 2nd power button press during incoming call
Fix XCam LG layout issue
Removed more unneeded background services

After testing for a few months, included f2fs support for data/cache
Updated a number of core Google/LG system apps/services (including LG Keyboard)
Better data packet aggregation while screen is off (fewer radio up/down events)

Enable IMS Registration (and SMS/MMS over LTE) while running ART.
Wireless Storage added
Call Reject list added
New system fonts added
Screenshot area preference added
Certain volumes increased (vs 1.0.0)

Downloads:
NOTE: AFH provides md5 checksums of all downloads on their site. Please verify them before installing.
Firmware/Patches:
XDABBEB's VS982.5 1.2.0
ART patch
Restore/Revert:
Restore Download Mode - only needed if you had flashed an older bootstack zip that enabled fastboot. Keep in mind this is a 26a laf partition and will only work paired with a 26a bootloader
ART patch revert
Add-ons:
20 dip Navbar
24 dip Navbar
30 dip Navbar
36 dip Navbar
42 dip Navbar
My Patch - This is a zip I flash on my phone after the main install. It sets the default system dpi to 424, sets the default runtime to ART (and switches it if you've already booted with dalvik), installs the 30dpi navbar and changes the status and navigation bars (centered clock, LP icons, battery percentage to right if on). Keep in mind that the initial boot will take a while due to the art compiler.
LG Extras - These aren't needed and are only provided as a courtesy without support. I did create a launcher/shortcut apk for the LG Health app, however, so it can be used as a standalone app. If you just want to flash that, remove everything but the 4 LGMyWellness files.

Well, I'm I'll and running. No issues updating. Booted right up. Everything seems to be working so far. Don't have too much time tonight to play. Couple things i have noticed so far:
1) I hear an audible click when exiting either camera app. Haven't noticed it with any other apps.
2) I use Google Voice for my voice mail and turn on the feature to integrate it into the call log. I am unable click on a voice mail too hear it. This is par for the course for the stock Verizon roms, but i was excited when it worked on CloudyG3. Is this a function of Verizon/CDMA?
Awesome work. Looking forward to playing around some more.
EDIT: I found a minor bug with the phone fc'ing when dismissing ringer via gesture and then hitting the power button. Will be fixed in next release.

This is an awesome ROM love love love love it! One thing I noticed, on the lock screen setting, for displaying the weather on the lockscreen. It asks for what location (which I enter) but it looks like it doesn't save? Anyone else have this issue?

You need to be using the stock launcher while setting it. Then you can switch to another like nova, etc.
Not sure if this is an issue or not, but once disconnecting from Wifi, 3G will come up .. but it will state no internet connection .. and then it switches over to LTE and I get the same message .. no internet connection. Re-starting data fixes it ... has anyone else experienced this?

I experienced something similar exactly once...after booting with wifi enabled I turned off wifi and though mobile data "appeared" to be connected I didn't have an IP so obviously it was useless. No need to reboot if this happens to you, however. Just toggle airplane mode. This should only occur on initial boot and only under VERY specific conditions (namely, a particularly slow MN handshake). In other words, this won't happen at random after you're booted.
In the future, please provide a log with anything of this nature or there's nothing much I can do. You'd need to capture it pretty quickly as well.

Try asking at link I quoted above first. Dev is trying to keep this for development only. If there's others with same issues then try explaining it better so it can be of more help. But many including myself have been fine with the camera so it looks like just a one person issue. Either way ask in q&a

So as this is a great base I will be trying out a project where I cherry-pick the features I want into the rom. I will also share this for people interested and it is also a good way for people to start their own personal rom if they want to as it's a very clean and stable base.

No although I will add the ability to customise it like in CM and other custom roms now as that is a feature that I think should be in stock by default. Yes the rest can be done with Xposed which is another point of the rom
Kayant, you are the Lord and savior of all Moto G 4G owners!
Will you create a new ROM for your own changes in a new post or add that here?
Yes I am happy about this project, hope it's gonna live long.

Hey Kayant. I just saw GravityBox added QS customization! This is great news. I was waiting until this was added so I could run a PureAOSP based rom without any features that could possibly slow down the system (all ROMS I tried had some lagginess) so this will be my daily driver! Thanks!
EDIT: Kayant, is this based only on AOSP? Because I see that you said "same bugs as CM" in OP?
EDIT2: How is Pink performing on this ROM? I used it on CrDroid but when calling screen would'nt turn on again (proximity sensor). Is this issue also present in this ROM?

Same issue here. Also having a problem when booting, the first 3 minutes everything is in English and only after 3 minutes the language of the ROM changes to my language... Do you have the same issue? Also when turning WiFi on/off, there appears "<Unknown SID>" for 1 sec.. Also, where do I find options like quick pulldown and DPI change? I can't find the features you stated in OP. But very smooth ROM though!
Can confirm Pink Kernel is working perfectly on this ROM! No proximity issues or reboots/lags. Try it!
Only bugs in ROM so far:
-WiFI on / off shows "<unknown SSID>" for ~ 0.5 sec.
- Chosen language only applied after entering SIM code
- Location icon not disappearing in status bar after enabling it
- In dialer, text in Dutch is not fitting in search bar from Dialer. If you find the time, could you change "Typ een naam of telefoonnummer" in "Typ een naam of nummer"? Then it will fit perfectly. Now only half of the text appears..
Great work though! Dialy driver.
This ROM is great. Flashed pink kernel, no problems there, everything runs fast and smooth. Only bug for me is the above mentioned gps icon, it's no big deal though, thanks Kayant!

I have tried it with pink kernel: full wipe except for data, coming from Blisspop 2.1. For me it does nog work, as soon as I make a call and let the screen go off by proximity the phone does not respond tot input anymore and reboots.
You also have a 1039 model correct?
What version of Pink did you flash?
Did you flash pink after first boot, or immediatly with the ROM?
And last: what Gapps package are you using?
I would love tot het Pink working, darnet! )
Hello guys,
kernel compatibility seems to be a major problem here. How about using the stock kernel of any ROM if you need your phone as a daily driver?
I always just make a TWRP backup of only boot.img before flashing a custom kernel because it is easy to restore and anything without the need to create a .zip every time.
Note please, that this is only a recommendation by me.
If you want, I can make such a boot-backup and load it into my cloud, so you can easily downgrade and have no trouble later.
See, it doesn't serve any purpose to write all the bugs in here (again) that are already listed. I propose that we keep this clean by looking through the posts written after the announce of a new version and only posting new bugs if they really are new. It will help Kayant as well.
In addition to that, it would help him (if you fear he might think that bug X is only appearing once), if you would just thank the guy who posted the bug and so thank him for sparing you the time to mention bug X again.
Kind regards.
Is there someone who would like to share contacts.apk from this ROM with me?

@keenofhiphop you sir, deserve my greatest thanks! Thanks a lot
PixN Rom** Theme friendly ** Better Camera ** exFAT ** Optimized kernel ** Substratum ** Clang ** Custom Settings **
This is my daily driver which I update occasionally depending on weather I need/want new features. There won't be any OTA's because of work. Do please also check the Credits section, and the Screenshots tab.
I do not have a single sim device, however I have compiled kernels for the single sim and dual sim variant both.
The kernel thread has now been split to be here since the kernel gets more updates than the rom (for now atleast).
This project has been renamed to show the my first forays into more *real* development.
Please use the Feature Request tab for feature inclusion requests.
It's also very hard to keep track of bugs reported here in the comments so please, again, use the bug reports tab...
I'm very thankful to everyone commenting, it's just hard to keep track sometimes, and seeing as DevDB has all the features required...
Since I also use XDA Labs which has no DevDB support it'd be best to comment AND add the comment in the required DevDB tab..

Installation Instructions
Eventually these will be flashable zips, however right now they're causing an error (IOError: [Errno 28] No space left on device)
So for now install by fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery_3.0.2.img
I don't recommend wiping userdata via fastboot so if you want you can always factory reset or clear Data, Cache, Dalvik and System from TWRP.
EDIT:- People having trouble flashing the system.img should try with mfastboot (fix found by @katibehi)
Downloads
The DevDB downloads are for the system.img and boot.img files only. They're in 7z cuz otherwise I can't upload them.
Get the latest kernel from the PixN kernel thread here.
Beta Release 1.999
This is in the DevDB download. The changelog is incorporated into the feature list.
The .7z is NOT FLASHABLE.
Extract it and fastboot flash the file as fastboot flash system filename.img

Bugs squashed. Notably the reboot.
Beta Release 4
Biggest YET!! Most feature complete rom around.
Beta Release 5
Bigger than ever (feature wise). First and only 7.1.1 build for our devices. Happy New Year!
Sadly this release is not on DevDB.. Since DevDB won't finish attaching files as of 1st Jan and I don't even know if it'll be back. I'm really hoping for a basketbuild account, cuz then I'll be able to serve OTA's. Anyway.
For now due to popular demand this release, Release 5 is uploaded to MEGA.
Beta Release 5.5
Still on MEGA.
The link to the folder is here
Beta Release6, 7
Mega again... Until DevDB is back up assume all future releases to be on MEGA for now.

A4: Not surprising, nougat is still young. Some features aren't ported and some may still be buggy. Maybe this isn't ready for you yet. And don't cry.
Q5: Xposed?
A5: Don't know. Maybe, maybe not. I'll ignore you if you complain about something and are using Xposed. Not out for nougat yet.
Q6: Can I complain about something?
A6: I'd prefer not, but be prepared for me to ignore you.
Q7: Can I report a bug?
A7: Absolutely. Please mention the kernel version and any additional files you flashed. Create a logcat.
Q8: When will you fix ${THING} that I just reported?
A8: Damn it, see Q0/A0. And if your ${THING} isn't something that bothered me, it probably just got shuffled to the back of the line.
Q9: Can I donate?
A9: Sure! Whatever you can. This takes a lot of time. Apparently not.
Q10: What is this "sdclang" thing?
A10: CM is using a optimized version of the clang/llvm compiler for official builds of Qualcomm devices. I'm using it for my own builds. See these links here and here.
I've depreciated this to move to Clang 3.9 (newer).

I just tried it on my E6633
Everything works except the camera which didn't want to work, even after some reboots.

Well.... I'd suggest you wait for a while after the reboot.. Then try the internal camera in WhatsApp... That works for me..
Though the camera problem is basically across all aosp builds until Sony or cyanogenmod or someone fixes it...
First of all thanks for your great effort! this rom is amazing.
Well time to report.
First, battery life is quite amazing, over 5 hours of sot. (around 3 in stock rom)
Second, the 64gb sd card won't get recognized... but on the other hands 32 gb one works well.
Regards,
Jerry
P.s. if you would like to solve the camera issue try to dig into @infected_'s repo... His roms had solved the camera problem.

Thanks for the heads up I'll definitely look into it
I'm not sure why the 64 gb cards don't work...
I'm not having issues with my 128gb sd card but it did format it before it would work..
Has it offered to format the sd card?
EDIT: @infected_ also seems to have used the same sonyAOSP repositories for his aosp build...
It's unlikely but maybe a different tool chain might help... I'll check. Also they seem to be all marshmallow builds... That might also be behind their camera working better...
camera isnt working yet on AOSP, on the kitakami/msm8994 family and all others. with some hacks msm8974 was taking pictures, but nothing stable.
regards.
What about the battery life during the night for you ?
It started from 82% at 2:00 AM, and now it's at 65%...

Yikes, that seems really awful. I'd suggest you use naptime for aggressive doze.
You could also try the doze app which stops background data for chosen apps...
With naptime installed you should get much better battery life...
Did you clean flash this?

I'll try Naptime and Doze app secondly.
Thanks for your tricks. I will tell you if it resolved my issue
And yup, I did a clean install
I can't flash system.img, fastboot shows this error
(load_file: could not allocate -1585037392 bytes
error: cannot load 'system.img')
I downloaded system.img two times but same error.

Which system are you coming from?
I think that error probably has to do with the larger size of the system image because of gapps being included..
Are you trying a full wipe?
finly i flashed it every think is good but camera dosent work. for now i come back to stock.camera important for me.thanks for your work
Is it possible to make this compatible with the E6653 device? The rom loads perfectly on my phone, only thing not working is my SIM card because I dont have a DSDS phone.

Yup it is possible and I'll release a working boot.img for the e6653 with the next release (hopefully today itself)
Actually the delay is because I'm compiling with uber but my first build was laggy as hell.

Why you don't flash this(http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z5/development/cyanogenmod-14-1-xperia-z5-e6553-t3493283) on your e6653?

Actually trying that one now, funnily enough it's not detecting my SIM card either. Never had this issue before, might be because I am in Australia.

Haha, you have no idea how excited I am right now. Eagerly awaiting that upload. Soon as it's up, I'll load it up and if all works well I'll use it for a while and give you some feedback.
Unfortunately the CM 14.1 ROM that was posted (which is for the E6653) cant detect my SIM either, lot of other people are having that issue too. Hopefully yours will be that stock experience I'm looking for.

Ok, so I installed Doze, Greenify (without Xposed, hope that it will be compatible with Android Nougat soon ), and NapTime. Without effect, always 2-3% drain per hour.
I realized that my device won't deep sleep, it was always in activity even when I wasn't using it.
I searched for wakelocks, and noticed that Google services were faulty. I disabled some of them after searched online, and it's better
I think without camera, the rom isn't complete. I am waiting for that.

I believe the sim detection in @fergy's rom has been fixed by him.. check the last posts in that thread...
I do honestly believe aosp is doing better than cm-14.1 at the moment, mostly because CMTE hasn't been doing well on the newer CM roms while Substratum is working really well...
I'm uploading a single sim kernel to release 1. Since the Uber builds are being more trouble than help...
Test it and tell me how it goes...

On release 2 (testing) with the Uber toolchain, Open Camera works... however the rom is overall very laggy using uber...
So I'll be looking into other opportunities...
By the way, have you found any non-stock rom (AOSP,CM etc) here or elsewhere with a working msm8994 camera?
If yes please link the repos here, I'll gladly try to incorporate it.
