BeanStalk Kitkat 4-4-4 resurected and remixed. For those of us who prefer stable devices versus half baked lollipops...
Changes:
1. 7 second delay (blank screen) after Sony logo and before boot animation starts - fixed
2. Camera updated to latest (no lag, no focus problems)
3. Latest libs and firmware files
4. Slimlauncher (new open source launcher from Slimroms)
5. Slim keyboard, which is 12mb size, as opposed to bloated CM's 43mb
6. Paranoid bootanimation
7. TWRP recovery
8. Modified version of [CM] X-Honami Kernel with TWRP 2.8 (must be flashed separately, see download section)
Maybe more...
Rom and Kernel (to be flashed separately) are in Download section
Credits: Original Developer Scott; Giveme13s; Alnikki25k; Cyanogenmod; Slimroms; Paranoid; maybe others - let me know if I forgot you
Instructions:
1. If you are on CWM, go to Mounts, mount System/Cache/Data and format each
2. If you are on TWRP, go Wipe/Advanced, wipe System/Cache/Data/Dalvik
3. Flash the rom (you can boot and start using it with included stock-custom kernel), but I recommend X-Honami Kernel by Alnikki25K, modified by me to include TWRP 2.8; for this
4. Flash the attached Zip file (see Download section)

I`m tried to restore the programs with Titanium backup. Many programs were restored with the original icon of Android and do not run. In Titanium backup noticed "SD card icon" next to an application. Could it be that messed up the names of the SD card path in ROM?

I am running this rom and have no problems with Titanium. You shouldn't have problems if you were running CM based rom before, but some stock apps won't work. Also, you have to tinker with Titanium restore options. Also, if you are trying to restore system app, you might have a problem (in this case, manually transfer it to /system/apps. I don't think Kitkat allows you to install apps on SD card (unless you manually transfer them from internal storage)....

Yes
I tried this rom just after it came out.
I was pretty impressed by the camera experience.
But I think that BeanStalk is a little bit "dirty".
@optimumpro
Could you make a PA Bulid with all of your device specific changes.
I also think that an stable kitkat is better than some hacky lollipop without camera.
Thanks in advance

I really can't touch PA or Liquid, because original threads are active. Beanstalk thread is closed. They need to be closed, since there is no further development. I have also fixed Dirty Unicorn problems, but it can't be built from sources and the current author is not responding to my PMs...

Correct me if im wrong but I thought, that opensource means that everyone can copy the source, modify it and bulid it.
Of course with credits given to the author.
Take CM Unoffical bulids as an example. There are soo many of them.

You are right, but neither liquid nor dirty unicorn builds from source (multiple errors indicating missing resources) and errors in script. Sometimes, developers change a few things in sources to make it impossible to build for others. This is a way to go around GPL 3. I am not saying liquid and dirty unicorn do it, but somehow they can build, but others can't. In addition, XDA has a rule: only one rom of the same version per device forum
Any mirrors?
Looks nice, and will look forward to try it, but the download time is estimated to 3-5 hours, and I have already got download-error twise. Thanks

PREAMBLE
This is SlimBean for locked bootloaders. Just to clarify, I'm not responsible for anything, neither for soft or hardbricked, nor for anything else.
Please, do not post feature requests or bug reports here, use DevDB instead, thanks.
As always, this ROM is not a ZIP-port, it has been compiled from source (see my sources).
WORKING/NOT WORKING
It probably has the same bugs as CM10 for LB.
FEATURES
This ROM is very lightweight (only 113 MB) and it also has very nice additions (see my screenshots).
Please visit the SlimROMs homepage for more information, the special "SlimGAPPs" and much more.

You can get the latest build from here.

Flash both in recovery: framework first, then clean dalvik cache and reboot. Next do the WIFI and reboot.

You need to remove the first couple of lines from Meta-Inf/com/google/android/update-script where the software calls for LT28h. Because your phone is LT28i, flashing does not proceed...
Can somebody please list all Xperia Ion variants? I can then add them to the updater-script by default.
BTW, if somebody is interested... Here you can find some nice add-ons (untested).

They are LT28h, LT28i and LT28at. But I think it will be best just to remove the first lines and start with ui-print....
Is this themed at all? I somewhat prefer roms that are dark.

I think it is clearly Slimbean, the lightest, but gives you a lot of options including many tweak options (embedded in settings app) and dual pane. It also gives you the largest ram (I had 395 mb on start). All CM based roms sleep well if properly patched.

Original FM app gives error and force closes in CM10 rom by @MrGezz and other releases of djolivier doesn't come with FM app.
Only gap of giving up stock based rom (I'm Aoba black fan of u) is the fm radio unavailability and "call waiting of other party doesn't show when originating the call" issue of CM10. Hoping a good reply.
Build Prop issues on install attempt
Tried to follow @optimumpro method of deleting the buildprop but i realized that even after removing said lines, im not sure how to recompile.
So maybe @djolivier OP can fix the build prop lines in his next update.

Use 7zip to unzip, then noteplus to make changes and save. Then rezip using 7zip again. That's it.
I flashed rom sucesfully, runs smooth, awesome features but recent apps does not work. I try to open a recent app and phone gets frozen. Can it be fixed? I am loving this rom so far.
I have this bug on all of my AOSP(-derived) ROMs for LB... Haven't been able to fix it yet.
I have no such bug, but I removed a bunch of apps I don't use (anthal radios etc). Also, you should tinker with original settings and launcher settings.
This is an unofficial build of Omni Rom based on KitKit 4.4.2. There is no official support for the d2 variants. Props to androidsftw for picking apart what was needed for our d2s.
I am not the dev of this rom, all I did was add in necessary device/vendor/d2 files for d2. This is not a port, everything has been built from source.
As with all things root, I am not responsible for anything that happens while flashing this rom. You take responsibility for your actions. Nandroid is your friend.
----------------------------------
Downloads:
Omni Rom for the D2LTE - Droidhype Roms
GAPPS 4.4.2 - PA 0-Day
SuperSU - Chainfire
Kernel (optional) - BMS
----------------------------------
Installing for the first time? Grab the newest full zip from the D2LTE directory. For future updates, just go to Settings -> System Updates and let the magic happen.
HOW TO INSTALL
1. Factory Data reset
2. Wipe System/Data/Dalvik/Cache
3. Install ROM zip from Sdcard
4. Install GAPPS zip from Sdcard
5. Install SuperSU from Sdcard
6. Reboot to home screen to confirm good flash
7. (Optional) Reboot to recovery and flash kernel
TO USE DELTAS, YOU HAVE TO USE TWRP OR PHILZ RECOVERY. CWM WILL NOT WORK BECAUSE IT DISABLES SCRIPTING CAPABILITIES BY DEFAULT. If there's anything that you want the updater to flash automatically after it flashes your update, put the file(s) in the FlashAfterUpdate directory inside your Opendelta folder in your internal storage.
Join the BMS G+ community which will have quicker release info in the future for all things BMS and roms.
Enjoy!
Cherry-picks:
- Multi-window
This build is unofficial, so I don't exactly carry around a changelog. However, you can always check cmxlog for omni and see what's been changed with each version of one of their nightlies. It won't be exact as some have specific device merges, but it will give you a good idea. The dates on my builds will correspond with the officials listed on cmxlog.
You can also check their gerrit or git to see what's been merged.
This question gets posted pretty frequently so if some users could please bookmark this post, we can just repost it when needed. Here are all the links you can peruse for your changelog/update enjoyment.

Hello Everyone!!
So here is a new ROM I compiled yesterday, it does have a lot of features and it is called SONIC OPEN KANG PROJECT
I didn't open a new thread for it because I'm not gonna be updating it unless many users encourage me to do so...
Anyway I thought I should share it with you guys, for who ever wanna test it
Here is this ROM's features:
http://sonic-developers.com/?page_id=160
Also here is a quick review for the ROM:
And for more info visit their website:

Download Link:
I've started uploading my files to androidfilehost.com , hoping you like it more than Dev-host
SOKP-MS-04-KK444-KTU84Q-20140726-amami.zip
Here are my screenhots as well:
Hello Guys,
Since our lovely Z1C is relatively new, it doesn't have many CM based ROMs, so I thought why not porting some
from the closest phone to ours (which is obviously Xperia Z1).
So I'll be presenting five ports for five ROMs as mentioned in the title, but I'm gonna start with a simple guide for how to port the ROM yourselves
All you have to do to port a CM11 based ROM from Z1 is:
Download the Z1 ROM and extract it wherever you want
Open META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script with any text editor and remove first five lines (assert)
Download This for old builds, and This for new builds, then unzip it
Copy and replace "boot.img" from the previous zip to your Z1 ROM
Copy and replace "modules" folder to system\lib\modules in your Z1 ROM
Open system/build.prop with any text editor and change this value:
Code:
# Graphics
ro.sf.lcd_density=480
to become:
Code:
# Graphics
ro.sf.lcd_density=320
that is it, although there are optional things you may do before compressing the ported ROM:
In system/build.prop search for honami and replace them with amami
And then search for C6903 and replace them with D5503
Also you may wonna add "Compact" here:
ro.product.model=Xperia Z1 Compact
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You may also open META-INF\com\android\metadata and do the same replaces
Resign the ROM.zip after compressing it
Important Notes:
DO THIS ON YOUR OWN RISK
You must be running KK ROM before flashing these ROMs down below
This method won't work on Slimkat, although you can grab it from Here
All bugs in these ROMs are related to the original ROM not issues caused by posting
Fell free to report any bugs you face though, and I'll enlist them in known issues
PacMan ROM and MoKee ROM are officially supported, so there is no need to port them
Instructions for all ROMs down below:
Copy the zip to your device
Reboot into recovery
Backup of your system (optional)
Do a factory reset and format [/system]
Flash the Zip

I wonder if you would do Slimrom also, it is a mainstream ROM with many innovations that other ROMs have copied.

I don't expect updates to appear in the ROM's settings, but if they do,
yes updating that way should mess up a lot, it should make a bootloop.

Ported Carbon 2014-04-01 (Build 2)
Also updated kernel in OP and in these two builds to 3.4.0 CM11 gb37510f From FXP313

Yeah it's been a week, so here are the Updates of this week:
Updated Carbon ROM to build 4 (2014-04-09)
Updated MoKee ROM to build 2014-04-04 (its kernel was updated to FXP314)
Added XenonHD ROM latest release build 5 [2014-04-02] (download link in second post)
it is very customizable (can't describe it enough)
you can check more info about it in its main thread
about the kernel update, it seems like FXP team have messed up thier kernel a little
so when I tried it on Carbon and XenonHD I got some sort of bootloop,
but it worked fine on MoKee, so MoKee is the only ROM that has FXP314 kernel,
I don't recommended anyone to use it for porting so I didn't upload it

Actually the problem is not much with the latest kernel, but rather with the ROMs:
Recently there was a huge changeset merged in CM tree, among other things it took in kernel a lot of CAF code\blobs from 4.4 Sony sources, and Xperia CM ROM was rebased on this CAF kernel.
It means, that the ROMs based on CM must be rebuild using latest sources, otherwise they'll have a bootloop with the new CAF kernel =)

It means, that the ROMs based on CM must be rebuild using latest sources, otherwise they'll have a bootloop with the new CAF kernel =)

unfortunately yes, if you want to flash a custom kernel, you have to have an unlocked bootloader (and that is required to flash custom ROM)
Hello! I'll be posting pure AOSP builds whenever there are new versions of android released (providing I have the time).
If you choose to use these builds, please ensure you have unlocked your bootloader and have custom recovery installed. I have also noticed that TWRP seems a little wonky at this point, so in order for me to flash it correctly, I had to wipe, then restart recovery, then flash. Hope that's not the case for everyone else.

Added ability to change DPI.

No longer messes with recovery at all. Bluetooth working, data does not force encrypt.
3/13/15
Android 5.1.0_r1 (LMY47D)
This release will wipe your recovery. If anyone needs this changed let me know and I will build another.
1/3/2015
Android 5.0.2_r1 (LRX22G)
Data is now encryptable, meaning your unencrypted data should stick going forward.
Included my own build of stock kernel with Linaro 4.9.3 toolchain.
Fixed bluetooth (thanks Lollipopalooza/Craig)
No longer need to re-flash recovery.
12/6/2014
Android 5.0.1_r1 (LRX22C)
You will need to install separate gapps
You will need to re-flash your custom recovery after you install (you all let me know if I should change this or not, I think I will on future builds)
I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device or to you, yourself while flashing this.
Latest DL Links will be in post #2.

From what I understand the apps themselves need to be optimized for 64 internally. These are all Google apps so they are if Google did so. As you update from the play store you don't choose if you're running 64bit or not.
As always I can be wrong.

This is actually a great question.
Adaptive brightness doesn't work. Other than that everything seems to be working.
Edit: Okay so I used an app to look at which sensors were working and which ones weren't... The proximity sensor is not working at all.

Adaptive brightness is working flawlessly. Maybe you had a bad download or flash.

I use USBhost's version of TWRP. I tried to flash the rom following directions in OP. It wouldn't flash. First it said for flounder and this device is flounder. Also said something about updater binary. I got this with the other rom also. I tried un-mounting and mounting system, but I still got the error messages. Any ideas?

I manually changed it to work with official twrp... Not sure why twrp is calling it volantis instead of flounder but that's why. Also, to get anything to flash in twrp at the moment, I have to reboot recovery after wiping. Hope this helps.

I have had one person test it. He said all functions of the phone seem to be working except maybe the carrier name was wrong, it said Sprint instead of his carrier where he lives.

I can't get either of you guys' liquid builds to boot. It keeps looping at the "LIQUIDSMOOTH" With the symbol below the words. It gets past the water pouring, but keeps looping at the second part. I just let it sit for 10 minutes and nothing changed. I didn't flash anything extra, rom only. They both do the same thing. I don't mean to cross threads here since Kevin built one as well. But I figured I would mention it here since you both posted.
Any suggestions either of you?

Is this on a clean install? As In TWRP wipe data, dalvik cache, cache and system. DO NOT WIPE INTERNAL STORAGE. Then flash the rom.
I have had one person already test it out and his is using it currently on LS970, boots just fine. You could also try wiping cache and dalvik cache if it loops.
Considering its on both roms Its probably not rom related.
What device do you have exactly?

I apologize for not being more specific.
1) yes it was an install on a clean partition. I use multiRom and installed it as a secondary rom, which is basically like installing the rom on a virtually clean partition. I have been doing this for awhile and only ran into a few issue. One being stock based roms as secondary. The other issues I have had are ROM or recovery based.
2) I am using an LS970 LG Optimus G from Sprint.
3) the roms I tried and am mentioning here are both LiquidSmooth so it very possibly could be rom (sources) based. I have no issues with Kevins device sources, the same with gproj sources, which I believe you used for the LS970.
I will try to install it again and wipe data, and caches before booting. That may help.

Hi there!
I was the one that actually tested the previous build for clementino and I am using it as a daily driver. I used the previous build and am downloading this new build as I type this reply. From what I had read around, using the lollipop build as a secondary doesn't always work.
first boot of LS 4.0 after clean install could take up to 10 - 15 minutes so I would suggest to wait that long as well. I use the Sprint LG Optimus G LS970 as well but I bought it in Indonesia as an unlocked phone and it already has another service provider on it with working data plan. This causes some problems for me at times when changing ROMs because it would sometimes cause me to lose data. Never the less the build is solid.
I assume this new build eliminates the CM theme engine and added RRO. Overall, I'm just excited about this new build.

I have CM12 for LS970 installed as secondary. With the updated TWRP there are no issues on installing Lollipop as primary or secondary. I am not trying to bash. I am trying to install Liquid smooth. I had Kevins Liquid Trex and it was awesome, but now there are newer versions and updates and fixes. Every other LP rom has installed fine. The only other thing I will try is to install as primary. If it works, I can backup, then restore it as secondary.
Also, what do you mean updated? Have you not tried the 01-18 build that is linked in the OP?

I'm sorry dopy25, I thought that clementinox has uploaded another build since he already uploaded the new builds he had for geeb. I didn't realize it until the download was completed. The 01-18 build is the one I'm running. But I think he's prepared another build. The only issue I encountered with this build, aside from the mentioned wrong carrier name is that in the lock screen it would show (no sim - Sprint) at the top left corner. Although text and calls work, my data doesn't and I assume it has something to do with my phone not on Sprint (APNs etc).
@dopy25
You need do update multirom TWRP once again, there was fixes for some ROMs which us block based zips, my liquid is working as secondary now and his should also.

You are absolutely right. After the update I grabbed from your server, I was able to install both Liquid roms as secondary. However, neither have the developer options available. Is there a different way to activate them in Liquid?
Also, @clementinox I have pretty much everything working in your ROM, but it caused my boot loader to freeze at the google loading screen. That was on reboot. It just sat there. So I had to go in recovery and wipe stuff again. So, to everyone else wanting to try this with gproj sources. It does indeed work.
Finally another Lollipop ROM!
Downloading now, if something goes wrong I'll report, thanks! :good:
Download link sends me to 01/18 is that the last build?

As Expected, downloaded and will try out your newest build.
Have you found the cause of the No Sim Card sign on the lockscreen or is it still there? Hopefully with this new update I can set the APN to my carrier's and get working data again! Thanks clementinox! :fingers-crossed:
I love the extra features against other ROMs (like cyanogem) but... I really miss themes, which was a "hell no!" when I found that it is not present in the ROM... And editable QS... So I'll in the meantime...
I Hope to see a build with all that in the future :good:
