If you can't find an answer, post it here, being sure to give as much information as possible (firmware version, steps to reproduce, logcat if available) so that you can get help.
Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy!
oh yeaaaaahhh
Oh hell yes .... I've been waiting on pa for the longest... I know when time comes... Pa features will really look nice with lollipop!
Yes!!yes yes!!
Pretty good...seems pretty stable..i see its running the cm12 kernel...hopefully i dont get any kernel crashes (blue screen demigod)... Evey LP rom so far has been doing that alot..
Works great...
No miscellaneous battery usage going on and the video camera works too! Running great so far and I think I finally found my CM12 daily driver.
The *one* thing (and this could be user error) is no "clear all" button in recent apps. Other than one little minor thing, I'm very excited.
EDIT: Used it for a while w/ no miscellaneous battery usage showing up and then it showed up out of nowhere.

I built this thing straight off the AOSPA-Legacy source -- which appears to be an odd fork of cm-12, but with specific d851 drivers (except for the audio drivers, which I had to take from cm).
The "clear all" button thing -- yeah, it's also missing advanced reboot options, and...pretty much everything. It feels to me like this was a fork from cm12 that hasn't been updated as much. We'll see what happens development-wise -- I expect it to pick up soon. Either that, or Ill cherry pick the improvements and build from there. Maybe. I'm not really interested in building another damned cm12. What I'm interested in is building and maintaining PA 5.0.
The "miscellaneous" battery usage thing WILL go away after a couple of charging cycles. That's Lollipop's battery management system learning your battery usage pattern -- or so I've been told.I haven't had it pop up on me yet, but I have seen it with other AOSP 5.0 builds, and it's gone away after a charging cycle or two.

Hey, I'm just glad this phone is getting some AOSPA love -- been waiting for this one to get it. Much appreciated!
Excellent stuff. Is there a way I can get back the Close All Recent Apps button in the recent apps window or was that just a CM feature?

Mentioned just two posts above yours.
Anyone having any luck playing videos via the Instagram as well as the Vine app?
EDIT: Never mind. I did a quick dirty reflash and videos on Instagram and Vine (as well some mp4 videos on the web) started playing fine again.
Great ROM
Great ROM @CrusherJoe and other developpers.
Is it possible to have the following features:
- Advance booting/reboot ooptions (Reboot / Recovery, etc)
- Ability to change the DPI settings for those who love smaller icons.
Thanks.
No Reboot option
Haven't seen this one yet, any of you guys missing the reboot option? All I have is Power Off.

The dev hasn't gotten around to adding the root feature, if he even decides too.
In the mean time download quick boot (reboot) from the market.
Dirty flashed the new build. Everything seems to be working great.

I actually tried to cherry-pick advanced reboot from CM-12.0 this afternoon. All conflicts resolved, no errors at compile-time, clean flashed the resultant build, and...
...the option for advanced reboot showed up in development options, and you could check the little box to activate it, but that's all it did. Long-press on the power button resulted in the exact same "Power Off" (lack of) choice as before.
Evidently, AOSPAL handles shutdown options differently than CM-12.0 (which may be why cm_strings.xml was missing from frameworks/base in my local repo, now that I think about it).
*sigh*
Hopefully I'll have time to delve into it this evening. I really miss advanced reboot, too, and it's kinda my "windmill" to get it ported/added to AOSPAL...
About the dialer
Well I have been using the build that was released on 11-30-14 and everything works. I use my phone daily due to my job and it hasn't crashed on me at all, and I use the dialer a minimum of 10 times a day.
I love this ROM! Thanks for all the work. BUT, any ideas as to why the streaming of music (Pandora) to my Kenwood car audio head unit doesn't work with later versions of this ROM? I have no problems syncing the following;
Kenwood - Voice Calls :good:
Kenwood - Live Traffic Updates to nav software :good:
Moto 360 :good:
When I clean flash the early 5.0 ROM, not a problem. If I clean flash 5.0.1, it fails. I've been currently using my phone with Kenwood head unit and this ROM but only when I clean flash 5.0 and dirty flash the later updates.
FYI, NONE of the other available LP roms allow me to stream from my LG G3 at all.
Thanks

As normal, it's not my fault if you fubar your tab by flashing this or if zombies come and speedhump your cat. You've been warned.
Note: I'm getting this post together before I jump on a plane, so if it's not 100% complete, I appologize in advance and I'll fix it tomorrow. I just want to share this with you sooner rather than later.
Preamble
I am not going to teach you how to use, or set up the applications that you need to use/flash this. I have included links to everything you need to know, just click and read for a second. If you are not willing to put out a little bit of effort to better your experience with your Tab, I am not going to waste even more of my time that could be dedicated towards making my ROM better. Also, if you aren't willing to give yourself the fundamental knowledge required for flashing this and something goes wrong, you will then have the required skill to fix it, instead of blaming me for bricking your Tab. I don't need that. I am willing to support my ROM and help with some confusion, but if you want me to do everything for you- lo siento.
About This ROM
This is AOSP, actual AOSP, not a zip ROM with TW pulled out like my Ultraclean. Some people want TW, some don't. Variety is the spice of life. I ported jt's build of it which you can find HERE
Features
ACTUAL AOSP
ultralight, fast and better than TW
VTL Launcher (tablet optimized launcher)
NO TOUCHWIZ!
Honeycomb theme by Benbowden (huge thanks!)
More! (Really, there is more, but I can't think of it right now, I'll edit this post as I remember)
Changelog
0418 - System update - Highly recommended update
Removed ADWLauncher2 and added VTL Launcher
Fixed Headphone jack- It now works.
Reverted Screen density to 240
New feature- swipe from left to right on a notification to dismiss it (From CyanogenMod)
New feature- long press back button to kill active process (From CyanogenMod)
Removed Sype from build. I'm against their stupid device locking even though their shipped on just about ever device these days. Not dealing with them anymore.
Changed 'phone' to 'Tab' whereever it appears in the system (shutdown options, etc.). I am pretty sure I missed some spots, but I'll get them all eventually.
Changed the default wallpaper
I think that's it. I'll update if there's more. Also, I'll try to get a kernel out today, but last day of vactation and all. All and all this is a good speed and stability improvement from the initial release. Enjoy!
(Next up is brightness and some good GUI changes)
0409 Kernel update - Highly recommended update
Based on EC02 kernel source
Added Powersave, Userspace and Ondemand CPU Governors
All patches and modifications from before have been added to the EC02 kernel source
Fixed a conflict with TinyRCU (a goof up I didn't notice I made with the DJ11 source, this helps an immense amount with stability)
Tweaked the touchscreen voltage to help with battery life
Added ext4 patches from the 2.6.32.11 kernel (found here http://kan.gd/8hp), thanks to imnuts for pointing them out.
Overall this kernel is much smother and stable from the last 12 hours of my testing. Take it for a spin and let me know what you think.
v1 - Initial Release
I am keeping the name of JT"s ROM and version number for this build as I have only done a bit of customizing on it so far. I've got lots of plans for big changes to it this week, but for now, I pay my tribute to jt. Just porting it over took ages, so I want to share with everyone so they can get an idea of how this device can function without TW. It's fast!
Known Issues
Most things that work on JT's ROM, work on this build, a few things don't (eg. compass)
Everything that doesn't work on JT's ROM, doesn't work on this ROM (eg. bluetooth)
I'll get more specific when I update this post tomorrow
Overlay needs some work, but it'll make you lol in the meantime (just look at the notification dropdown and rotary lock and you'll see what I mean)
Plans
I have tons of plans, of course, getting full functionality back is a main priority. My final Goal with this ROM however is to show how the 7" platform is truly the best for tablets, and to make a ROM that is fully optimized for the perfect platform.
Installation
YOU MUST HAVE CWM INSTALLED TO FLASH THIS
You will need to factory reset, so back everything up
Download the ROM and kernel and put them on your sdcard (links below)
Boot into recovery (volume up + power button)
Flash ROM
Flash kernel
Flash GAPPS
Factory Reset
Reboot
Restore your user apps and system data, optional. Note: DO NOT RESTORE BACKED UP SYSTEM APPS
Thanks
jt1134, Adrynalyne, rotohammer, TCMAN, benbowden, punk.kaos, supercurio, boombuler and everyone in IRC as usual is great help. Also, a huge thanks to poitee for giving me access to his build box, without that this would have easily taken me an extra week to finish and my computer is on it's way out, so it may have just died without his help. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

-home button doesnt seem to work, pretty sure its just a setting or the adw2 launcher.

Odd, I can't flash the ROM for some reason. Even went back to stock and put cwm back on with no luck. Keep getting an error that the signature is invalid. I tried to turn off signature validation and it still didn't work

Aaaaaah......no problems Zombies literally just broke down my door and speedhumped my cat. It was terrifying.
On a serious note though, what's up with the notifications in the pull down being so small? And my rotary lockscreen is missing half the rotary? Anyone else?
VZW tab btw

Both issues? The tiny notifications and chopped off lockscreen? Also, where is the option to reorder the menu?
Both issues.
After the rather...disappointing way I departed and the resulting issues, I'm setting some things straight here and now.
1. No ETAs. Period. I don't want to see when will I fix or add anything.
2. No complaining. There's a line between reporting an issue and complaining. This line is crossed when it's reported more then once.
3. Requesting additions is fine, within reason. Keep it within reason, I'm not a real dev.
4. Using this ROM...this is where a lot of issues have come up, generally speaking, you can use this ROM as a base if you choose, however ASK ME FIRST. That's it! Everything could have been avoided if people had simply asked me before using my ROM and slapping their names on it then putting it out there. Please include some credit to waydownsouth, gh123man, randomblame and myself. For 4.3 Jellytime, randomblame in particular.
5. Hosting/mirroring. Please don't host or mirror this elsewhere, I will supply hosts for this ROM, I don't need more, and I prefer to keep track of how many users of a given build I have. Hosting elsewhere interferes with this. The only exception I can see is for our Russian/Ukrainian user community, my hosts may be slow there, or in other parts of the world. If you wish to host for another country, please let me know.
6. READ. For the love of all that is holy and great, READ the OPs, read at least the page before where your post will be. I will not answer questions already answered. If I respond, it may not be the nicest way I could do so. Please, save me, yourself, and everyone else the time and /facepalming and at least attempt to find the answer on your own. This is not limited to only this ROM, but anything you may wish to post about in this thread. Questions about CWM or TWRP don't belong here, but if they are valid questions that have something to do with this ROM, go ahead, after reading up on it.
7. Remaining on topic....well this one is loose. I prefer it to stay related only to this ROM, however I know things stray, and generally I'm OK with this, just try to keep it at least related to android. Or at least something related to something to do with on this planet.

Pio_masaki,I have been a silent observer of your threads for quite a while, and I have to say that I have never seen such a nice person as you. Maybe there're other developer in XDA that has a better skill than you (just maybe, haha, please don't be offended =p), but regarding personality and character, I think no one can match you. You really deserve the best person award. Thanks for all the work that you have done to the community =)

Thank you for the kind words, and no I'm not offended, there are certainly much better developers for sure, as I don't really consider myself a developer anyways. Most of this work has been done by randomblame and waydownsouth I just move it over for us on the A100, which isn't always easy I'll admit.
Version 7.8 is now available
Change log:
Root is now working as it should.
Open Super SU
Let it "install" binary (its already there)
Enjoy
External SD is now RW:
Fixed a permission issue in platform.xml to allow full read/write to external_sd.
Brightness control now works:
Auto brightness doesn't seem to work, manual brightness works. This was actually fixed in a previous release, and broke again, and is now working again.
Sound:
Sound works in some apps, but system sound is still broken, ie notifications, music, but some apps/games work, like angry birds now has audio.
Bluetooth:
Bluetooth has been proven fixed by a pairing, testing done by ntan97.
Still Broken:
Gallery/camera
Internal SD doesn't mount
Power LED is erratic, sometimes always on, sometimes always off
Home to wake: works when power led is ON, doesn't work while it is OFF
Video playback is still broken. Tested on stock player, dice player, mp4 and avi.
I'll be redoing the posts to be a little less confusing by moving things to change logs like this.
Wow man. I'm surprised on how much progress you're making on this. It's quite a feat. You can say all you want about how you're just compiling what others have made to the A100, but it takes a good person to continue a project for such a small community like this (even after you said you were going to slow down? I haven't seen you slow down at all) and it's still not just that simple.
You're probably one of the most helpful people here since crossix. Thanks for you're work :thumbup:
Hopefully when I receive a new PC in a couple weeks I could start making the first complete A100 theme for this ROM. To my knowledge there really hasn't been a whole lot of action in the themeing department here.

Yeah....I keep saying ill slow down.....then I get a new idea or theory and go back until I get it right lol
Theme wise stetsonaw has a complete theme that works for us, but of course more is always better, I'm partial to black and red myself.
And PC...yeah don't get me started on that. My fastest machine takes 3 hours to build. That's like 2 hours of prepping 3 hours to build just to test. Unless its something I can do after compiling. That's the version number, first is build second is changes within that build after its built. So current is build 7 change 8, so figure 3 hours per build, plus whatever time of work before the build, plus whatever hour so per change after... plus the builds I didn't even number lol.
All said and done I have at least 21 hours invested in builds. Probably another 15 in smaller revisions, plus the 9 hours getting the initial port worked out. Over...maybe 2 or 3 weeks. Plus the nightly cm9 builds. And a few hours for the scripts, few more for aoikaze, and more on kuroikaze which I'll likely never finish and release. Oh and the guides lol.
It adds up quick. This is just since May...I think closer to June when I started all of this.
Edit: Just realized I have over 99 hours in the nightly cm9 builds, not counting setting up for it and uploading time lol

I just flashed and have noticed one thing (I apologize if already stated just haven't seen)
But it looks like just a density issue. Fonts are just small at times. The stock launcher seems a little weird and when in landscape the notification bar is far on the left.
I tried my best to take a photo.
And just a question. Are their specific 4.1 gapps or are the ICS ones the same?

Yeah not a bug, that's the new 7" UI jellybean uses. Not sure why they killed the combined bar and chose a phone UI though. That's how the N7 will look too.
Oh edit there is a jb gapps but they're kinda broken, so flash them, ten icss gapps over it and itll work, that's how I do it. I'll add them into the OP sometime today, niece and nephew are staying with us for a few days so I'll be busy being the coolest uncle ever with all my modded consoles, devices and toys lol

Andromadus - Test Builds
To start with here you will find test versions of ROMs built by me from the Andromadus github repo http://github.com/Andromadus, think of them along the same concept as nightly builds just not every night These are development ROM's, if you want to run bleeding edge development ROM's and at least know how to use adb and logcat then you might find something of interest here. If you require something that works 100% of the time all of the time then this might not be for you. That said you can always give it a try and if it doesn't work restore your previous nandroid backup!
What IS Andromadus?
Initially it was a group of people who got together to make ICS work on the HTC Desire Z because nobody else seemed to want to support devices with physical hardware keyboards/trackpads. Whilst the idea stays the same It has grown slightly to support some other hardware and some of the work we have done is now used in many other devices. Andromadus builds of CM10 or CM10.1 are basically CM sources with a few additional tweaks or additions to support our phones.
1. New versions will be added as and when I feel there are enough changes to warrant one, don’t ask when the next version is coming.
2. If we decide to release a "Stable" version of these roms they will be published in another Andromadus thread.
Direct all your queries with release versions to that thread and in the same vain do not discuss these releases anywhere but here.
3. I will do as best I can to answer questions but if you don't get an answer from me I'm sure somebody else will be along to help. Help each other and I have more time to spend fixing things!
4. Don't ask for what's changed since the previous version, have a look at the recent submits on the Andromadus github if you want to know or wait for the mini changelogs when I post a new release.
5. If there is something in particular to test it'll be mentioned!
6. As always if you didn't wipe between installations then at least verify that the problem exists on a clean install before posting here. Nandroid/superwipe/install/check at the end of the day you can always restore your nandroid if the problem is reproducible on a clean installation. If you can't be bothered to try this then I really can't be bothered to try to help you :>
7. All that said ensure you make a nandroid/backup before hand. I take no responsibility for what you do to your phone with these ROM.
8. Whilst I can't stop you I would rather these builds were not used as a base for any ROM/MOD/ETC. The source is all available if you want to do your own builds with which you can do whatever you like.
9. Tell us what works/what's worse/what's better but don't ***** when something breaks or isn't fixed yet, report it and move on.
10. Sometimes people forget that we do this for fun, for ourselves, and sometimes your super important issue is way down on our personal list of things to be fixed.
If you ignore any of the above you will in turn be ignored.
Now that's all out of the way as always have fun
As usual you need to flash the ROM then GAPPS.
Checkout http://andromadus.flinny.org for links/files/changelog's

Wooo! Trying this
Can I flash directly over 4.1.2 build 129?
or would you recommend a clean wipe : ]
or check the link to the new website on the OP
I would suggest doing a wipe as Gapps etc are all different... if you do try an upgrade then I would suggest backing up... flashing rom/new gapps/wipe cache/dalvik at least.. then most likely finding it didn't work and having to wipe anyway
Nick.
Thx so much. I will try it.
Just tried installing directly over 129, rotation broke so I'm going to try from a full wipe. ( everything else is hunky dory really, although took a quite some time for the phone to calm down and get back to it's usual pace)
By the by, I notice the kill all icon from 129 is gone, is there anyway I can add that myself rather than wait for an update? ( as it's super handy!)
Thanks again flinny and Andromadus folks! My phone is even more woosh woosh and fancy than ever before.
Great job Flinny! You have done quite a lot.
just a question... what is the difference between the cm10.1 and the aosp 4.2? Is cm10.1 the beta release? or are they new test builds based off of cm and not just aosp?

ASOP is stock Android, CM10.1 is with Cyanogenmod and Andromadus tweaks. ( I.E more things to mess about with! yay)
Okay got all my apps reinstalled after a fresh wipe and this Rom is daaamn smooth.
All the default apps run without a hitch, and none of my extra apps have caused any issues either ( got 50 installed)
Just needs lock screen short cut tweaks, statusbar/notifcation tray colour/alpha picker and a kill all apps button and this would be puurrfect.
More than happy to use it as is though, runs great.

Am I being stupid or is there no developer menu item under settings? Additionally missing is the glorious Performance menu item too.
Also having some troubles connecting to wifi access points after the initial setup.

Go to about phone and tap build number until it tells you that your now a developer....

Thanks flinny~~
It's so wonderful~
But I can't find the CM's function, like "Performance",
If the CM 10.1 have some function not implement??
Some features have not yet been ported to 10.1 by the CM team yet. But performance and developer are hidden in all 4.2 builds until you do the tap build number thing
ZMoD is an AOSP-based Android 5.1 ROM focused to bring the most popular features to a clean, AOSP-based ROM.
A bit of history: when 5.1 released, I was impressed by the memory management fixes it brought us - it's a lot better than 5.0 was. Since I use my phone heavily, mostly for texting with multiple apps, it was clear that I couldn't go back to 5.0 anymore - however, there were no feature-filled 5.1 ROMs yet, so an idea popped into my mind: why not create one? This is how the first version of ZMoD born.
Features
- RRO theming support
- screenshots: quick delete action
- configurable wakeup on charger connect
- configurable volume button wake
- advanced reboot
- show application's package name in the "App info" screen
- statusbar clock and date customizations
- option to hide USB debugging icon
- clock and time clickable in statusbar
- battery icon customizations
- alarm clock: increasing volume option
- alarm clock: flip and shake actions
- materialized gallery, calendar, browser and sms (not fully done yet) app
- material default wallpaper
- swipe in AOSP keyboard
Todo
- battery and notification light customizations
Instructions
First time flashing ZMoD to your maguro (or coming from another ROM)?
Unlock & install a recovery
Wipe data & cache partitions
Flash ZMoD.
Optional: Install the Google Apps addon package.
Updating from a previous build?
Just install the latest ROM zip. If you had Google Apps installed, you need to re-flash it as well.
Downloads
Latest build: see the downloads section.

Bugs?
Bugs
- offmode charging broken
- green bars on the edge of the recorded videos
Thanks alot Ziyan for keeping this phone alive and running. :good:
Just to clarify... Ziyan are those the only bugs you have come across? Are there any other bugs that we should be aware of such as graphical glitches or wifi/data issues bluetooth perhaps? Would this be considered a daily driver? Sorry about all the questions, but I really want to jump to a 5.0 rom 4.4.4 just isn't cutting it anymore. I have all kinds of ram issues all the times, forcing me to reboot my phone on a daily basis. I think this would be the perfect opportunity for me to transition to a lolipop rom, but I would like to know if this rom is stable enough for daily use.

done flashing. so far so good here. bugs presented above is present. but im gonna try use this rom for more days, (as same as othe LP 5.1) but as i remember from my past flsh from other roms., the more you installed apps the more it getting slow and bugs. well so far here i just installed those social media apps and its running good to me, but i couldn't say its that stable but lets just help @Ziyan and give some reports. well im not that fun on CM roms but ill give this a shot coz its the only rom who is willing to support our legacy phone and make it alive again.
This is awesome! Thanks a lot @Ziyan. I've been using your CM11 builds for a long time. But who needs CM when we have you? CM11 is way too laggy for a while - which is by no means your fault! - and all the stories about 5.1 will definitely make me part of your test group. So I'll stop writing now and start downloading.

I'm just waiting for the camera bug to be fixed which causes the camera to stop working and requires a reboot to fix it. If that's fixed, I'll be really happy to come back to LP.
i tried front cam video recording ...... sad to say i have to reboot my phone for me to use it again.. hmm.. the main bug of Gnex LP's are the camera if this will be fixed then for sure it could be stable to us Gnex users. is ther a chanve that someone can make a mod for camera and flash it to be more compatible? i mean what if the cam is not LP based. is it that possible? ( sorry for the question im not a developer)
This has been undoubtedly the best ROM I've ever flashed onto my phone. Camera bug or not, the smoothness with which it runs is almost making me doubt this is even the same phone. I am floored. Great job Ziyan and the OMAP team!
Anyone tried bsmitty karnel with this rom..?
#17
how to get root access ?
This ROM is very nice so far. It's still downloading and installing my apps which obviously takes more time since LP.
The ROM feels quite snappy, at least a bit more than recent CM11 builds. I am missing a few features such as privacy guard and quick switch between apps by pressing and holding the recent apps button. Swipe isn't working with the AOSP keyboard.
I haven't tried the camera yet. But so far so good. Really good.
I've been using this ROM for a couple of days. Really awesome ! Great work @Ziyan !
@Ziyan mwisbest fixed the offline charging, maybe you can pick the commits? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59405904&postcount=2882

Does HDR work on this ROM? I've tried quite a few ROM's on my N5 and in most the HDR in google camera was non-existent in the options menu.
Is this a bug?
I've been looking through settings, and I can't find how to disable heads up notifications. I also tried search and that didn't do any good. Is the option missing? Or am I just blind?
ROM is great
But i've got a feature request for you. Previously i saw this only in mod for stock and in one rom. I'm talking about linking nav bar and status bar colours feature. Idk how it will be practical, but looks nice.
Fixed Camera Error on 04/08 build
I don't know if this post helps, but right after flashing Glitch kernel r320 I got the camera to work, so could it be that stock kernel has some issues?
Latest Update - what kernel is compatible
Hi there I'm curious what kernel works wittehe latest Chroma update as well as any additional files needed for f2fs. Thanks!
Btw best and quickest ROM I've used to date love the minimal GApps and overall speed/mem usage
I didnt found where to post it properly, so...
I found a bug in AOSP keyboard. When you try to change language, it force closes. Sometimes it closes when you open keyboard, sometimes it dont. I tried to use layers, completly same resoult. The ony modification i use is RRO Layers. Logcat present.
Hope you provide fix soon.
WOW
I think this is the best
Sick of damn crap memory leak on my galaxy note4 lollipop(5.0.1) + touchwiz crap
i found this rom is super awesome managing ram
system ram only 250~300mb!!!! wow!!!
now i installed about 200+ of 3rd party apps, many of them can stay alive, and i can load them very fast whenever i want!
I want to install this ROM but I'm unable or perhaps unwilling to give up the ElementalX app that was pulled from play store. So here's my problem. After I install ROM I try and restore ElemX app via TiBu it says I didn't purchase it. I know this isn't a problem with the ROM but perhaps someone knows a workaround.

Please ignore this post.Problem resolved.
this rom overclocked by cpu at 1. 7 ghz, is it okay to overclock. and xposed 5. 1 unofficial isn't working. I flashed it but got bootlop...
I have too few posts to post in the main thread, but just wanted to say thank you for this ROM. Finally a fully stable, fast, and up-to-date ROM that has everything functioning and adds only the extras that I also consider essential such as AppOps/Privacy Guard and power menu.
Great job.
The ONLY issue I've found on my Nexus 7-2013 seems related to the Franco Kernel and not your ROM exactly. The included kernel works with all Camera/USB-OTG/GPS/Wifi, but if you update to the latest R21 release with the Franco Updater app, it will cause the camera to be unable to connect.
I'm currently using the ElementalX-4 kernel instead and it seems fully compatible, and all devices including the Camera work.
Thanks again.

Very nice ROM
Using it for few weeks and love it. Very stable, tried different layers and looks great. Thank you for a wonderful job and hope the updates will be coming, even though it's been discontinued

No issues for me. Great work!
Also having issues with media control option.
i still got that home-button glitch
read quite some posting about it, but could not ind out if it was solved or if it will vanish with a new rom.....i am on the latest for n7
I'm having an issue with screen rotation. I can get it to landscape at all. Also it doesn't look like my brightness slider works at all either.
Any ideas?

Hello,really love the Rom. Just updated to the new version, fresh clean flash. Everything is running really smooth so far. Have a quick question about the settings menu, maybe I'm missing something but has the expanded desktop option been removed. I need the option to play clash of clans in full screen on my second user account. Any help is greatly appreciated
Latest build running great.
