Just curious if there is any custom ROM development for AOSP, Slim, Omnirom going on? Would be good to have other base's set up for our device and being maintained as it would give more options.
AFAIK no. Even if there were its 99% chance that it is based on CM/Lineage and has changes that just add some stuff but dont go really far from them.
The ideal scenario would be to have an pure AOSP ROM so that anyone can have a clean and easy start to build upon.
So far I think ParanoidAndroid is the only ROM that is also based on AOSP and goes side-to-side with CM/Lineage but currently they don't officially support HTC 10.
Although, I think I saw a branch for pme on their Github so you never know...
There's slim,aokp,and acip N here. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=search&s=Pme&type=files
Just search 'pme'
But I believe they are CM based . I am too waiting for pure AOSP .

Ok, Ive falshed many roms and have got to know many things about roms, kernels etc.
I'm still confused with one thing though....
What's AOKP & AOSP??
Ive seen many roms with that written and a few with Not AOSP Written on them.
Anyone Help me out here?
Thanks!
AOSP - Android Open Source Project.
AOKP - Android Open Kang Project.
An AOSP ROM is a ROM based on the Android Open Source Project from Google. An AOKP ROM is a modified AOSP with various tweaks and customization.
Kang is a word that is somtimes misconstrued to mean stealing other's work and to some it has a negative connotation. In reality though, it's starting with another's work and building on it to (hopefully) make it better. It makes sense that most devs appreciate being mentioned when their work is in play within a particular rom so that's why we often see a list of mentions when various tweaks/mods/etc are utilized.

AOSP Android Open Source Project
Just do a quick google/forum search for more info.
Thanks soumya_digi & zeeshansohail
But for AOKP is just mean the http://aokp.co/ project or all project based on a AOSP?
I mean, if I take a CM and do some change, will be a AOKP?
No right?
So AOSP are all the rom based on purecode, AOKP is just the aokp.co project.
CM is one of the AOSP
AOKP are just the rom maked by team kang, maybe also based on AOSP project..
I'm confusing.
Hello Developers
is someone able to create an AOSP (KitKat 4.4) ROM for our Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini? It would be great if we have a "vanilla" Android version for our Smartphone and this can be used as base for other ROMs. Would be great if someone could build it
Greetings

Most ROM are based on AOSP or CM (which CM is based on AOSP) :/
And if you want a minimum ROM, there's few ROMs are even less 'bloat' and more 'vanilla' than AOSP itself.
I think he meant that he wanted an actual aosp rom, not just an aosp based rom. While we don't have a pure "aosp" rom for our phones, cyanogenmod is pretty close, slimkat is also pretty bare if you're into that. I'm sure a lot of people could port it, it just remains to be seen if any developer is interested enough to actually do it.
Yes a pure AOSP ROM would be great. The whole ROMs which are aviable for our device are based on AOSP so I think it wouldn't be so difficult to build one from AOSP isn't it?

Slim kat is equal to Slim ROM? In that case there is already a port to the S4 mini in the developer section of this forum
In my experience, it seems that pure AOSP builds have always been more stable and less buggy than cm or other aosp based roms. But I've also learned that it's a challenge to build purely from source. My question is, how likely is it for the g3 to get an AOSP ROM build from the main source?
Hello Devs,
I think the new Lollipop version is great but at the moment we only have CM12 ROMs for our S4 Mini. Can someone of you build a pure AOSP Lollipop ROM for our device that other dev's can use as base for other ROMs? I do not like CM and at the moment I'm using SlimKat but it looks like there is no update to SlimLP in the next days so it would be great if someone can build a pure AOSP LP ROM.
I would do it for myself but I have no experiance in ROM development. I found this thread but I'm not sure how to add our device. Also I found this and this repo on GitHub but I do not know which from them (or maybe both?) I need to compile the ROM or if I have to change something on them because they are for CM and not for AOSP. It would be great if someone can teach me these steps because this is often my problem when I try to learn something about Android ROM developemnt.
Yours sincerely
Cilenco
Cm12 at the moment is just aosp, give it a try it's very good
so i just finished speaking with a dev from hazy rom. they are willing to make a new version of hazy rom, version m- n i believe if we can find someone to maintain it. i am unable to as i wouldnt know where to begin but i have copied the link incase anyone would like to speak with him about this rom.
https://plus.google.com/u/0/communi...3/stream/c6b645aa-520a-4076-83ab-1d07fd7da6dc
I remember using hazy rom on android 5 for this phone. New version would be great.
I think it would be hard to find someone who can maintain this as most of the old developers have new devices now and the others are busy supporting their roms. But let's see if someone comes forward
--
well one of the old devs is just waiting for me to reach out to him about a maintainer then they will build the rom for us since they are already on 6.0 with their other devices so yes i hope someone can step up to the task at hand. unless everyone likes using only 3 main roms. rr nameless and cyanogen ( other roms like du and omni or crdroid are nice but i like customization )

Clearly you never use DU and CrDroid. CM is just a base rom. You are right about Omni because they didn't aim for customization.
