I've started a project building an AOSP ROM for wingray for my own amusement, and I thought I'd share, just in case someone wanted a nearly pure AOSP ROM with some carefully chosen tweaks.
As far as I am aware this is a fully functional ROM, but I am unable to test exhaustively so treat it as a pre-release beta, use at your own risk, blah, blah, blah.
I don't make any promises to continue development or fix bugs.
Features:
Built from pure AOSP 4.1.1 R4 (JRO03L) source with the following tweaks:
Fixed Guava compilation errors (thanks to CM10)
Added Busybox binary (thanks to ChainsDD)
Added Superuser package (thanks to ChainsDD)
Removed cellular and tethering references from wingray build (thanks to Peter Alfonso)
Disabled inclusion of AOSP recovery in the build (thanks to Peter Alfonso)
Fixed init.d support (thanks to CM10)
Working Camera
Bigger thumbnail size in recent apps menu
To do:
Horizontal recent apps menu
Reboot menu
T-Mobile Theme Chooser
More ...
Known Issues:
May encounter an issue with Superuser forgetting app permissions. Workaround: install SuperSU.
To install this ROM, I recommend wiping System, and Dalvik Cache, and performing a Factory Reset, but feel free to try it your way.
Make a Nandroid backup first!
Use standard Jellybean gapps.

All feedback/bug reports welcome!
Well this is pretty neat, Thanks!
Glad you like it. I'm finding it quite snappy to use, even though it's not overclocked. I'll try to build in some more features as I get the time, if I can do it without losing the butteriness.
Hey thanx for your work.:good:
I wonder how this would run with a Tiamat/Eos Kernel ? Anyone tried?
Only one way to find out
Development is going a bit slowly in the last two days as I have been having trouble with corruption in my git repository.
i was just wondering if someone might ever do an aosp build for my xoom. thank you so much for your efforts, and for sharing the fruits with us!
cool deal man, i'll give this a spin and report back. so good to see others dev'ing for the Xoom! thank you thank you thank you
when looking in TB there is a system app listed with Chinese characters followed by 4.1.1-eng.zigackly.20120914.083408. What is this and can it be removed?
just like to add that first impressions go a long way and i dont normally look at the boot animation, but i did this time and it was way smoother than any other ive seen on my tablet, dont know what the diff is, but i like it
so far so good
Getting build.prop error 7 on install. Looking for Wingray in the build.prop line.
Might be a bad download? I am trying to update from CM10 and the stock update Stachre provides.

That will be the AOSP Chinese keyboard. There's a Japanese one too. Look in Settings->Language and input and you will see them as options. I believe you can safely remove them.

Could you try the download again? Build.prop should be replaced in system when you install, so it doesn't sound like a problem with where you are coming from.
MD5 checksum is 8cfdb670d42b5486f07f816f0e9a4791. You can check with MD5 checker from the play store.
If it's not a download problem, try a factory reset and wipe system before installing. Make sure you back up first.
In other news, I have fixed my git repositories although I had to redo all my work, but I am now working on a new build with improvements to the recents menu to take advantage of the Xoom's screen size. Hoping to implement bigger app thumbnails tonight and possibly a horizontal menu tomorrow.
The addition of a reboot menu is challenging. I made some changes based on the way Peter Alfonso does it and that didn't work, so I looked at the way CM10 do it and that didn't work either! I don't give up easily though. I'll take another stab at it this week. I'm learning this as I go along. Best way to learn, I think.
I'm also hoping to look at adding Theme Chooser this week.
Thank you for the md5, it matches, but still doesnt install.

may i suggest one or two? i like the options for things like setting quiet hours or profiles, being able to change toggles, etc. not sure how easy those would be to add in. i'm more than willing to help out and test things.

what recovery are you using and are you sure you have done a complete wipe? (factory reset/wipe data, format cache, format system, wipe dalvik)?
Im using Rogue Recovery...did full wipe, dalvik, cache and system.
Perhaps its the recovery - but that doesnt make sense as every other rom ive installed worked well.
I modified the build.prop with some more operators to see if it will accept the model name or similar instead and I get a error 6 instead.
Maybe its just my Xoom? Nonetheless, ill wait for now, and stick with CM10 - its been pretty stable for me with no reboots.

understandable. maybe try TWRP recovery just to make sure? if you have the time or are up to it?
I guess I could try TWRP, but I dont like how I always have issues with mounting sd with it...its why I stick to Rogue.
Ill give it a shot later on with TWRP to try and pinpoint the cause.
Edit: Tried TWRP and it flashed. Interesting! Thanks a bunch!
Build 7 added with larger app thumbnails in the recent apps menu. Available for download in post 2.
I'll look at what it might take to add those features, dodgefan67. I'm looking to implement the ones in my wish list in the OP first though.
I also need to get my head around merging in some improvements from the AOSP code base from after 4.1.1 r4.
The build.prop error is caused by an assert in the updater-script which checks you're installing the ROM on the correct device.
You could extract the updater-script and remove the assert, then replace the updater-script in the ROM.
It's in /META-INF/com/google/android in the zip.
I'm trying to get hold of a build.prop from a wingray which exhibits this problem, so I can correct for it in the script, but I expect yours will be fine now.
Worst case I can just remove the assert, then if someone flashes it on the wrong device it's their lookout, but I'd rather add the variant which is causing the problem to the assert.
I'm going to have to halt development on this for a time whilst I work on some stuff for my Nexus 7. I've updated build 7 so it will work with Rogue recovery. Back in a little while.
thanks for the update!

Tuxility in the market http://www.appbrain.com/app/tuxility/com.grimmvarg.android.tuxility
News: I have discovered that editing the settings.db is not very usefull and might make your system unstable. I have therefor decided to choose a less generic way of letting users access edit system settings, like wifi sleep time etc.. Should be done in a day or two
The userbase has grown a lot these last days, which means a lot more feedback. No big bugs as of yet, but please post any issues you find, so I can fix them And off course feature requests!
Tuxility
Hey guys!
Im creating an app for the Samsung galaxy s, Ive only been working on it for a few days, but a few features have found there way into it:
- Flashing a kernel without pc, while phone is on. ( ref: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=765724)
- Back up your current kernel
- Phone codes (view battery stats and various tests of hardware)
- Backing up and restoring /efs
- Reboot to Recovery, Download and standard mode
- Cleaning battery stats
Features to come:
- Toggle Mediascanner on/off
- Editing system settings
- Full System information
- Change system Font
- Sensor dump (for fun)
- Improved GUI, with colors and an icon
- Place backups on external_sd if it exists (thanks _renaud_)
- Add tools for calibration of screen/battery etc..
Requirements:
- Root
- A Samsung Galaxy S (all variants) running Android 2.1 and up.
Why am I releasing this?
Well for one to share the kernel-flashing feature (thanks to supercurio for this). Also to get feedback on what works and not. But more importantly to get feedback on what to add or change about feature and code (which is located here, yes I know my github tree is suboptimal ). I'm used to Java but pretty new to android. So any feedback on the code is appreciated
NOTES ABOUT THE KERNEL FLASHING
I hacked together a filechooser to pick the zImage you want to flash. And you can flash only zImages or Tars including zImage.
The filechooser sets /sdcard/download/ as starting DIR so i suggest you unpack your zImage there. Bakups are stored in /sdcard/.tuxility/backup
And the notice of no responsibility
I take no responsibility if my app breaks your phone, (not that it should, but now i said it) and you try this software at your own risk. On a related note, the code and the app is released under GPLv3. I will however, do all i can to help
Logging is on, so have a look in logcat if something is not working and let me know
I hope someone will find this usefull, and find the time to give me som feedback
Known issues:
The settings file seems to be located elsewhere on the galaxy tab. So if anyone with a tab wants to help me out finding this, that would be great
If flashing kernel fails, and log show "not enough space on device" remove any folder in /cache named "2010-*" that contains a zImage. This is fixed irelease 1.2, I thought that /cache was cleaned at boot, but this was not the case.
The way that all this work
The backup features are pretty straight forward, using a system shell I give a cp/cat/tar command wherever it is suitable. For instance /efs needs to be tared to keep uid and permissions.
For reboot i issue the "reboot <mode>" as root
The kernel install uses the procedure from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=765724 and copies a binary file to /apps and uses it to install the new kernel image.
All backups are stored in /sdcard/.tuxility/backup
A SMALL WARNING
Just like anyone will tell you, remove all lagfixes when flashing a new kernel if you are not _sure_ that the new kernel you are flashing support your old lagfix, ktnx
CHANGELOG
V1.2
- Huge code cleanup
- Now using flash_image to flash kernel, thanks to koush!
- no more screen distortion after flash
- No forced reboot after flash
- Better execution controll
- Added phone codes
- Removed edit settings.db (this is to risky, no replacement on the sketch board)
- Starting on feature to fetch latest kernel
V1.1
- Install kernel from tar archive
- Finally have an icon
- A bit more restructuring of code
Android Market will not allow me to use sub 1 versions.. :/
V0.21:
- Restructured the menu, for later additions
- Added remove batterystats
- Backup Kernel now sets date in filename
- Improved filechooser, will not install files with a file extension
- Big cleanup of code
GrimmVarg I will follow your work very closely !
Wow, this is good. CWM doesn't backup the kernel, and with this app, one can easily do it. Would be absolutely wonderful if it can be included in the CWM recovery menu.
Thanks and will try it soon.
Is it somewhat like this?

Yes and no, Its the same concept but different features, except the Secret codes list which I havent implement and the wiping of batterystats. I used SGStools my self before I started on Tuxility, its a very usefull app.
I am making tuxility mostly to get all the features that i need in one app, as I feel that most of these utility apps both overlap on features and miss a few essential features, like flashing a new kernel for instance. So my goal is for Tuxility to be a feature full alternative that cover all common needs, and in addition has specialized features for a give rom/kernel.
Thus feature requests are most welcome
Can you publish this to Android Market?. Further updates are easier that way. Thanks for making this.

Install, update & FAQ.
How do I install this properly and clean from another MIUI or CM based rom?
THIS WILL WIPE ALL YOUR DATA!
1: make full backup using miui backup (skip if you're on CM)
2: reboot into recovery and make a nandroid backup
3: do a factory reset and format /system
4: flash the .zip and reboot, if you came from CM you can skip the next steps
5: restore your miui backup
6: reboot
How do I update an existing MIUI/CM based rom and keeping my apps/data?
1: make full backup using miui backup (skip if you're on CM)
2: reboot into recovery and make a nandroid backup
3: goto mounts/storage and format /cache /system and wipe the dalvik cache
4: flash the .zip and reboot, if you came from CM you can skip the next steps
5: restore your miui backup, some system settings may have change between releases, so this will not always for all settings
6: reboot
FAQ:
Q: The phone is lagging like mad after first boot/flash.
A: This is normal, let the phone settle for a few minutes.
Q: Why can't I run things as root anymore?
A: Since MIUI 1.9.9 you have to enable root permissions. Open up the "Superuser" app, press the menu soft key, click settings and enable root permissions.
Q: How do I add more input languages to the GB keyboard?
A: Download them from the market or directly from here.
Extended settings issues:
Q: How do I remove the Google logo from the notification bar?
A: Open up "MIUI Control" app and go to "Carrier options" and then disable "Display carrier logo".
Q: The wall paper scrolling doesn't work.
A: To fix; open the menu on the mainscreen and goto Launcher. Disable and enable wallpaper scrolling and it should work. This only has to be done once.
Q: I've set an alarm but there is no icon to show it is enabled.
A: To fix; open MIUI Control app, go to Clock options and disable and enable the alarm icon. This only has to be done once.
(more to come)
First of all thank you!
Are there other langugages included than english/chinese?
it looks pretty god damn cool
This looks perfect for me as I wanted to try MIUI but thought some other ROM was to bloated.
edit: Damn, my phone is at 2%.. Gonna have to charge it up before trying it. :/
At the moment it is just English, but I'm sure you can apply the 1.8.26 language packs to this as it is pretty much stock, with some crud removed.
The miuiandroid.com guys did add some tweaks for GPS, which is mostly for Europe. For other users, replace /system/etc/gps.conf and /system/etc/telocation.db with these files. Just open up the ROM zip in 7zip/winrar/winzip and over write the ones in there, then flash as normal.
the FM is not included, am i right?
thanks.

As far as i Know the FM stuff isn't ported from CM yet, I'm going to give it a go later. If it works I will make an update.zip to add it.
Nevermind the above, it seems to be able to break your internal speaker for good: http://www.galnetmiui.co.uk/content/forum/index.php?topic=1258.0
I'll wait for a proper fix and kernel and/or app.
Battery life...
looks good. "congratulations"!. I wanted to do something the same but you beat me to it. Anyway, how is the battery life with Neo 17? Can you some report without all the bloats in it for battery life? So far, 1.8.26 MIUI.US is 1 1/2 a day on moderate use with data and wifi on. And it sleeps like a baby.
Thanks in advance.
Firstly it looks very gud!
Secondly how is the battery life ? I don't go out much so i don't want amazing battery life just average!
What are AOSP roms? ( I am not a noob but i have installed only jetpack rom till now which is very easy to install but i just want to know more before I flash this)

I couldn't understand the cache and all that clearing points can u explain them in easy step to step way?

AOSP refers to the Android Open Source Project. Google's phones are based on the AOSP. Any other phone manufacture has their own version of Android on their phones such as HTC (Sense), Samsung (Touchwiz), LG (variant of Touchwiz) etc...These are based on the AOSP but skinned to the manufacturer's needs..
If you wish to install MIUI, please ensure you have read and every installation step carefully. You need to 1st make sure that u hv gingerbread bootloaders. Since you are running Jetpack ROM, you should be on gb bootloaders...Once this is confirmed, simply put the MIUI ROM that you desire, go to recovery and flash the ROM....wait till it boots completely and voila...ur phone will never be the same again...
Once you are on MIUI, you'll never want to go back to samsung roms...as for the battery life...I get 48 hrs of medium usage - wifi (95% of the time and rest on 3.5g network), browsing, facebook, emailing (a lot), photos...
I'm sure you will have fun with MIUI...and there will be no turning back...If you wish to go back to Samsung based ROMs, just download any Speedmod kernel flashed via Odin and that's it...u r all set...
Hv fun..
I am on galaxian kernel right now so do I need to move to speedmod kernel? Also on more quick question main post says to replace some files but i don't have a computer right now so i can't but also I don't use GPS so can I install without changing that files ?

I installed it and believe me those who don't have this are missing out on Its pure awesomeness ! Too snappy to be true! Also the amount of customization you can do are unlimited!

So far so good, I installed this ROM last night and until now haven't encountered any problem yet. This ROM is just what I want, Galnet MIUI seems a bit bloated and unstable at the moment.
Thanks for the feedback! My battery life greatly depends on what I do. If i casually browse, make calls and maybe watch some you it lasts 1-2 days. Be sure to calibrate your battery though, its easy but time consuming but worth it.
I've been using this little mashup for ages based on the miuiandroid.com releases.
A little secret, a kitchen may be up soon. So you can brew your own MIUI, choose a kernel, gps tweaks EU/US/etc, pick a default theme, with MIUIthe possibilities are end;less. It is just sad the MIUI community seems fragmented now.
miuiandroid.com vs miui.us vs galnet vs. miui.com
Why can't we all get along and make an epic ROM we can all customize!
I want that, and I shall do my best to make it happen. We may have to follow the -stable branch and only add weekly updates/fixes when it concerns our phones.
Personally I like to run the latest stuff, but not at the price that I can't rely on this ROM to serve me when I simply need a phone

So, with that said, you will be updating this rom with weekly updates like miui without it getting bloated. This sounds good, as you have a fully working phone to use. Have you tried incorporating Neo 17 r8. Alot have reported it wurmth good battery life.

Big thanks to @bigxie for answering my questions!
Screenshots: (even though its stock)
Your screenshots aren't coming through. Do you have a link to an imagehost?
Is this pure stock other than deodexed and busybox?
Must be pretty stable (which I like!)
Good luck with the new ROM!
Good work. I hope you make this ROM into something that sets it apart from the others! Good luck.
I like the remove usb debugging icon. i dont know if the other roms have it. (probably do) but good work I hate the stupid icon.
Sorry about the screenshots. Dropbox link kept failing. Attached them through the actual file so they work now. Not very nice questioning my dev abilities on behalf on dropbox link fails

My new rom Glazed ICS is out so go and grab it and ENJOY. This rom will no longer be recieving features in fact i will be taking away useless stuf to make this a bareboned rom.
GLAZED ROM
Updated 6-7-2012 Scroll Down For Changelog. Scroll down for installing not included gapps (Like talk).
Hello Forum i would like to introduce a new rom called Simple CM9. As you can tell by the name this rom is special since it does not have all the useless items that most roms have. This rom is Sweet and To The Point. This is my first rom ever so give me a break if its bad. (Hope its not). I made this rom because i really enjoyed Takenover83 original cm7 bareboned rom, so i decided to make a ICS one, also because some people were requesting it in the original thread. Anyways enjoy your SPEEDY KINDLE.
Disclaimer - I am not responsible for any damage that is caused by flashing this rom or by modding this rom and flashing etc. I take no responsibility if your kindle breaks, bricks, sets on fire.
|Some of the features this rom offer are|
Super Fast Bootup (Should be working properly since last update)

Put the following line in your build.prop
persist.sys.usb.config=mass_storage,adb
And the USB will work without having to go to Settings

It should be noted that this was recently added to the default prop in the kfire android (Hashcode's)
https://github.com/KFire-Android/device-amazon-otter/commit/3c69448cf98749305051be89fd3ea3562e19d95b
Should be the default behavior for most soon.
OP; always nice to see a stripped version, grats on the first release.

hey Hyperrunner,
Since nobody has reported any issues I assume it's a non-issue (at least with TWRP).
However, naming your ROM zip "Simple CM9.zip" with a space in the filename seems a little dangerous to me. You never know if all recoveries can handle spaces in filenames.
Huge fan of barebone type ROMs (esp. of the CM variety), so I loaded this one.
My System partition went from 244MB to 171MB. Bootup time for my KF went from 58 secs down to 35 secs.
Everything appears to be running smoothly ... not even a single hiccup to this point. Not much of a gamer, so I cannot comment on that aspect.
Was running the Vanilla CM9 ROM before this, so time and size comparisons are between that and this ROM. I also found the Vanilla CM9 to be very smooth in operation.
So far, it seems like the dev did an excellent job on this. Thanks, Hyperrunner.

Also there are no problems for CWM since I tested it.

Sblood86,
Does this even work?
I might be missing something but I remember trying this with persist.adb.notify and putting it in default.prop and didn't work. I needed to have this property in build.prop to get it to work (so i ultimately put it in system.prop).
So to test I just did a full wipe and installed the latest vanilla rom.
However, in order to see the kindle as an usb drive I needed to go to Settings -> Storage and enable mass storage.
It seems it needs to be in build.prop...

It works if persist.sys.usb.config is set in build.prop. But it does not work if it is just set in default.prop when building from source.

Seems like the code that gemedis posted earlier had adb enabled and kept the device from properly mounting. Got it all resolved though "persist.sys.usb.config=mass_storage" goes into the build prop.

ORIGINAL CREDIT TO BALDWINGUY77 OVER ON ROOTZWIKI. CHECK OUT THE ORIGINALi: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/36706-ro...a-like-stock-android-442-kot49h/#entry1031982
I'm only port to maguro.
Is a port from original rom no have base maguro only changes for use GSM networks
This ROM is Android Kitkat 4.4.2, build KOT49H. The ROM is built directly from source, that is, the Android source code published by Google available for download to all of us developers. The reason I say the ROM is "OTA-like" is because I make VERY few modifications to it, aside from the things that it takes to get the ROM working. I'll go into detail about those things below, but basically I just want the ROM to make your phone feel stable and shiny and new as if it has just received a new OTA update. That being said, it's clear that the landscape of Nexus devices is changing as new ones are released. Therefore, the other primary goal of this ROM is to keep our Galaxy Nexus as close to the modern Nexus design as possible. This means that I will also add in features that will still be stock, but will also make our phones as close to a current Nexus as possible.
As for how I handle the forum side of things, I'm always open to comments, questions, suggestions, requests, etc. I know that most of those things will often be in the form of criticism, but it's okay, I think I can handle it That being said, I do also have a life and am a college student, so I may not get to come on here ALL the time. I will check back as frequently as possible, and I'm hoping that you guys will help each other out as much as possible! Keep it friendly! So now for the details...
Features
Stock Android 4.4.2, build KOT49H
Source (AOSP) built kernel (boot.img)
(De)Odexed
Easily rootable (see information below)
G-Apps (GMail, Play Store, etc.) included in build along with Nexus apps
Stock browser replaced with Google Chrome
Shiny restart options - access them by holding down the power button and then long pressing on "Power Off"
All the crazy Google proprietary app stuff has been taken care off
Updated frequently
Everything works!
So what do I mean when I say "Everything works!"?
I'm sure by now you all know that when someone says that, it usually ends up not being true. This ROM is not an exception to that rule, but I can say that I've tested most of the things that would be expected to work in stock Android, such as...
WiFi Tethering (no subscription check)
Bluetooth streaming
Google account sign-in and auto-restore of apps and settings
Google Wallet
Location Services (pretty fast GPS lock in my area also)
Believe it or not, December is still a month!
Photosphere
Android beam
Photo editing with the new filters
Email
Exchange support
Like I said, the normal stuff (data, voice, hardware acceleration, etc.)
More things that aren't important enough to mention here - check out the changelog for a more comprehensive list
Installation Instructions (VERY IMPORTANT - Note: I use recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.3-maguro)
ROM

By the way TWRP works with this rom.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1. Download the latest version of the ROM from the download post. (Also download any other files you will need to install, such as Chainfire's Superuser Root ZIP, the radios installation ZIP, the bootloader installation ZIP, etc.)
2. Put the file(s) you downloaded in step 1 on your phone's internal storage (sdcard).
3. Turn off your phone.
4. Boot into the bootloader of the phone by holding down both volume buttons and the power button simultaneously until you feel a vibration and see a large arrow that says "Start".
5. Use the volume keys to change the arrow until it says "Recovery," then press the power button to boot into recovery.
6. Because of differences in recovery types, I will make the following steps rather generic.
7. Wipe cache.
8. Wipe dalvik cache.
9. If you want to be 100% sure there are no problems, wipe data. If you are coming from another ROM or Android version, wipe data. If you do not wipe data and something goes wrong, repeat this process but wipe data - this step is not necessary if you are simply upgrading.
10. Flash the ROM
OPTIONALS:
11. Root: If you are rooting, flash Chainfire's SuperSU ZIP file - this step is not necessary if you were rooted on the previous build and are simply upgrading.
12. Mod's: If you like any mod you can install zip now
13. Change kernel: U can change aosp stock kernel. Tiny Kernel, Fancy Kernel, Dirty V, Franco Kernel, Mpokang kernel.
14. Reboot your phone, and enjoy!

No GApps "Add-on" Zip
Some people don't like the way ShinyROM includes its own GApps. Flash this zip directly after the ROM and it will strip out most of the included GApps so that you may use the preferred GApps of your choosing. This will leave the core GApps (Store, Services, etc.) as well any others required for basic functionality (Keyboard, Camera, Launcher, Dialer, etc.) since there are none of the AOSP counterparts included.

This is something what I wanted. Love stock(ish) ROMs.
