hey all. i did use pac man rom based on 4.2.2 until a few days. then i changed to 4.4.4 beta1.
After reading for hours in xda forums i found that the new kernel does not include drivers for native FM. is there any chance to get this into the kernel again ?
2nd: i do miss some features from aokp , pac in black, privacy control (or whatever its been called) and so on. arent them included yet? ( aokp seems generally included )
thx, meerhie

I might be wrong but this is what i think
The 1st link you posted is managed by the CM developers, the second link is Tripndroid who based his/her/their rom on the base of the CM developers rom. Basically adding and removing tweaks that this person/team likes and dislikes
If your considering rooting and installing a custom rom. I can recommend the 1st link been using their roms for more than a month now and it's very good rom. If there is anything about sense that you like and will miss try the Sense roms. (Viper and ARHD) are the two major ones that i looked into, before settling on CM10.

hi there just adding to the above post. the first rom is developed with an ultimate goal of becoming the official CM rom, and is ready for everyday use soo far from my experience. The second one is Tripndroid, and he adds his own tweaks as far as i know. however i havent used his ROM yet to know for sure.

Hi there, I am running the ROM from the first post and it's brilliant. I have tried the second one and found it had quite a few bugs and was not nearly as finished as the first ROM. I am busy downloading alpha 5 now to try and am sure it will be just as great as the rest of his updates have been.
Thought I would give my info based on user experience of both ROMs. Also depends on what you looking for; quick ROM or fancy looking, awesome features or a stripped out version.
Well thanks guys, i think i'll go for the TeamNDVRu when i receive my phone, but still waiting september to see if it's worth it or not.
And what about the known issues ?
- Occasional soft-reboots with GPS On + Facebook ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...postcount=2184 )
- WiFi direct doesnt work
- MHL output is rotated incorrectly to portrait in horizontal mode (but workaround added since alpha 8 for hw decoded videos/youtube. Use bsplayer from playstore, almost all videos play with it in correct rotation in hwoverlay)
- No FM radio app in ROM. But Spirit FM works from market (it's commercial!)
- USB storage copies slower than normal
- Some paid apps loses settings/acconts due to this android jellybean problem: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=34880 Solution is to backup with Titanium Backup and restore to internal memory, not to sd

Some of them will only occur if you have special need for something. (e.g. wifi direct)
Some of them don't occur for everyone. (facebook+gps reboot)
None of them are really a huge concern if you are willing to try jelly bean. And for most of them there is a workaround, fix given in the text you quoted. I have a jelly bean rom installed and I have to say that I don't really feel any negative impact by those known bugs/issues. But do note, that most of these ROMs are not as stable as the 4.0.4 ROMs like ViperX.
I have been using tbaldens ROM and it has been quite good. The ones by trip I have found to be a bit unstable.

Hi,
i recently upgraded ICS to JB and tried two custom rom (Revolution/Insertcoin). It seems compare with ICS, JB custom rom doesn't really have any customization (e.g. quick settings, app drawer, tweak, etc)? what was a reason? (i think i read a post about something like permission or source code related, but can't find it anymore)
thanks

Well, Jelly Bean kernel source isn't out yet, which prevents some mods and custom kernels.
Also, I think that some of the other tweaks just haven't been ported to Jelly Bean yet.
It will happen in time...
Final kernel isn't out yet or mybe - they haven't had a final base yet ait tight its going to be back soon

Hello to everyone,
i wanted to post my question in the fancy kernel topic (Here) but this is my first message so i can't write in the development section.
Anyway, i flashed the latest Fancy Kernel Bigmem on my GNEX with Paranoid 3.99 and i'd like to use Touch Control to wake up the phone by swiping from left to right on the screen, but when activating TC it doesn't list my kernel, only Franco's, CM and modified stock.
In the official topic of Fancy the author says that the Extended version has "module support (for PGM, e.g.)", so it should be compatible!
How can i do?
Many thanks
(ps. sorry for my english!)
With ponury module, it works.
sory if i post in wrong place.
my problem?
i use a lot wi-fi......
I try vanir aosp rom (based on cyanogenmod) and i have AMAZING wi-fi everyware.....
but i dont want a "havy" rom like this one.
I like Iridescent_Zed_III odexed(or not odexed),but there is a weak wi-fi.I try difrends basebands,other kernel,still weak.....
Vanir aosp is using baseband 77, Iridescent_Zed_III is usin 77 too.
What makes the difrent?kernel?
any idea?

to keep it short:
baseband has nothing to do with ROM. (you have to flash it manually, never changes on ROM flash. the 77 one is the last from stock rom )
now difrences between vanir aosp & Iridescent_Zed_III:
vanir aosp:
- its latest android KK 4.4.2 running on 3.4 kernel (new & powerful, but not as stable as stock.)
Iridescent_Zed_III:
-its BASED on android ICS 4.0.4 running on 2.x.xx kernel (dont know exact) its based on latest firmware we've got official from SONY. its the stablest one, when you will. but its laggy & old.
there are many things affecting the wifi (drivers inside rom, kernel, baseband, ''tweaks'' inside, even router's play a role, etc....) so its hard to say what exactly will make it better / worse. you will have to test it yourself to say if its better or not.
my advice: you say vanir had the better wifi, but its to ''heavy'' (even i dunno what u mean exactly..) so i would recommend to give Legacy Xperia ROM a shot. i think you will get the most out of it. also if you dont need to have the latest android (just want USE your phone) then use android 4.2.2 JB (CM10.1) its the bets mix of power & still very usable. in addition its keep very clean & lightweight.

to answer some stuff quick:
-KK is a hell lot faster than ANY ics rom with & without apps on it. maybe currently its a bit sluggish but thats because ION is in ACTIVE development. but its getting better & better every update. for latest version of LX im really amazed. if you know that ''It's Can't Be Lighting Fast & Cool ROM'' you know nothing about KK experience & bro KK is even optimized for low end HW. your sentence is wrong. KK runs a lot faster & stabler than stock ICS!!!! the thing is that some drivers are not meant for KK & make some things not work superb like wifi. i have much app installed & phone still super fast. i dont use fackbook & i guess its fb fault that phone become laggy. (fb works good on ICS?? did you making jokes?? )
you should try KK instead just only talking about it. i think u have no idea (what u talking about ) also use some good rom like LX, to many half baked roms out there
- dev porting apps mostly to their systems using. mostly they use the newest.
- sony apps porting to same os KK apps port to KK is MUCH easier than to JB (very hard many code changed / missing in JB)
try KK bro & report me bak
Thanks For The Right Answer..
hi there bro... thanks for useful reply... i don't have much experience in KK roms... i will definitely try it later... so what rom do you use?
Legacy Xperia 443? >>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2545354
is that optimized rom? i just can't imagine how KK can be better then ICS... maybe it's really optimized for 2011 xperias...

KK (aswell as JB) is better because it uses the new 3.4 kernel. this is a power pack. ICS still rocks stoneage 2.6.2xx kernel.also its CM based which is hold close to stock android = more power for you. one of kitkats pros was project sveltje which wanted to make sure that the latest OS of android even run smooth on low end device (512 mb ram) it also benefits our devices.
personally i use latest LX 4.4.3 rom (with sony home, media apps & sliglthy sony style framework by me) because its keeped clean & its updated frequently (not abdonned after 2 builds ) but the newest versions (after 19/3 build) are all ION based & with hints . some bugs here & there, new bugs comming (because of active development) if you want just check out kitkat, use the 19/3 build as it is the last PMEM one & gives most stability in kitkat on our device.
if you just want to upgrade your rom to use it as daily driver & dont care to allways have the neewest, then use CM10.1 (also LX) will give you best mix of speed from new kernel & its the most stable of all JB roms for our devices.
just to mention in coparsion to ICS: battery will get down faster & wifi isnt perfect (i have no problems). also camera is much better on ICS. (mostly due to lack of proper drivers.)
take 2 hrs time, do a backup of current rom (recovery), the flash LX kernel ROM & gapps of choice. N# experiece yourself. im really amazed how far our phones got . in case you dont like you can just flash old kernel & restore backup (or go to stockkernel via falshing stock ICS ftf via flashtool, then install xparts, install CWM --> restore backup)
dont forget to follow LX install instruction EXACTLY good luck

@gius321
I know you're no newbie.
It pains me to see that you've not tried out any kitkat ROMs all this while.
May I suggest a particular ROM.
C-Rom version 5.6 KitKat 4.4.2
Try it.You will like it.
