No offence but how can you have 939 posts and not know that all the ROMS mentioned are not individual OS's but merely 'flavoured mods' of the base Android OS.
How man you also not know that there are literally dozens if not hundreds of custom ROMS of every possible flavour and style.
Use the search button m8

You don't call them os. You call them rom.

No, I know the ROMs are modded. But I mean is there any other ROMs with completely different UI?

As it is a phoenix ROM, that is very likely yes

Can this help? I saw a lot of things worked in this ICS port.
Will it be possible to make wifi calling available as as in 2.2 ? I couldn't find it in 2.3 so I'm hoping 4.0 will bring it back.

I don't much think WiFi calling will be available in ICS. I haven't heard anything of that nature added but aren't there other alternatives on market. So what are the major complications people are facing with porting ICS to our devices

It'll be better if we have a working rom first instead too ask for features
in the pre-alpha state of firmware.
Sorry guys. Admitted noob. Not a developer just a BIG BIG fan of what you guys do. Didn't know any better. Thanks so much for working on this kick ass project!

Andy, can u post the URL of the manifest of your sources?.. i m learning to develop android and would be helpful if you provide the URL.
Also how much is the size of the repo of urs? I am using virtualbox and want to decide the size of the virtual hd.
The virtual hdd have to be at least 50GB in its size.
I dont have a manifest.xml because i dont have a full repo nor provide
the full android sources but only modified code.
If you want to start with developmen on android, dont download not working
code, dont download the OS sources - it doesnt makes you happy after/when
compiling - better start with pure simple android apps to understand what is
android, how works android and what do i need to modify sources for my ideas.
if you really want to develop on the OS itself, i recommend to use a working tree
like AOSP Gingerbread or CM7 Gingerbread. ICS is still in early alpha, almost nothing
is working... it brings even nothing to write a lot of posts in development forums,
most developers doesnt spend time in answering "noob" questions, so its better
to learn step by step.

It's very good advice, when I knew ICS was about to be released I downloaded all the CM7 sources to be ready. I looked at Mik's thunderg sources, compared it to some other phones and just went through all of it to see how it works. I have a small notepad in which I wrote down what each file is for, why some things are changed for our phone and 'remade' CM7 for myself.
It means that when I look at the ICS code I still don't understand everything, but my head doesn't immediately explode when trying to work out why it doesn't work

Is it anything specific you don't like about those ROMs, or are you doing this for education?
For now, I can help testing if the ROM is stable enough for usage (SMS, GSM and wifi).
I can help out with build prop tweaks and any icons or anything we need done. I am still learning the android programming side so I wouldn't be of much help there.
Miui is based heavily on Cyanogenmod, so we'd need to have major progress on that before making any move onto that. As for what would be interesting would be a heavily customisable 'build your own ROM'.
I'd envisage large file, but one that you can select the features of, from theme to audio ports, tweaks, keyboards and the like, and one that you can clean up easily after flashing.
Thoughts?

Then you should decide what are you going to do. Either you work with MIUI/stock and modify, theme and whatnot, or you work from source and build your own version of AOSP. The latter allows more, but also needs more knowledge.

What is AOSP and AOKP?

Hi all, What is AOSP and AOKP based of rom? what is the different?
AOSP stands for Android Open Source Project. This is a 'pure' build and AOKP stands for Android Open Kang Project. This has features like rom control so you can do that little bit extra with your device

Funny you should say that, because that's exactly what I did & lo & behol . I get this thread as a Google search result.
Why did I choose this search result? Because it's being given answered on a well known developer forum which I trust. Therefore, it seems logical to ask such a question here. Thanks to the poster for the answer

-AOSP stands for Android Open Source Project, and it is headed by Google.
-CYANOGENMOD (CM) is based on AOSP with their own customizations. It is headed by CM team.
-AOKP stands for Android Open Kang Project. It's based on CYANOGEN MOD with their own (more) customizations. It's headed by AOKP team.
***So in summary, ***
-AOKP is more customizable than CYANOGENMOD, faster but a bit less stable than CYANOGENMOD.
-AOKP is compatible with almost any MOD made for CM Roms e.g Themes.
-Any bug present in CYANOGENMOD will also be present in corresponding AOKP version and thus on all AOKP based Roms.
-because AOKP contain it's own bugs + the native bugs present in it's parent CYANOGENMOD, it is a little less stable than corresponding CYANOGENMOD.
I hope this helps everyone.

As to which one is faster or stable is really relevant to device and user.

questions about vanilla android rom

So I'm kinda new to the rom stuff.
I'm currently intersted in vanilla android rom as I really dig the way it looks and how it functions.
Is there a vanilla android rom that supports:
1) fm radio
2) tv out via mhl
3) burst shot option in camera and some other cool camera options
I may sound like a noob haha but I really want to know because I saw that most roms don't support this, or maybe all of the roms don't support it?
Looking forward to your answers
Unfortunately those options are not supported. Those are known issues with CM10 ROMs and AOSP mate

I'm using InsertCoin and can confirm that radio and camera burst mode works fine. If you're asking about an AOSP ROM then I'm afraid I can't answer.

There are AOSP ROMs that support fm radio, they usually specify in the thread what to download for that, but other than that option the rest isn't supported yet. But you can try any other Samsung based custom rom to get the things you listed

[ROM+KERNEL] [AOSP] [4.3] [JWR66Y+JSS15R] [PSX+PSK] [v8.5] [10/28/2013] Pure Speed X

Welcome to PSX (Pure Speed X)
A collaboration between myself, rustyjay, and Banks. I bring the speed jay adds the features...and “QC” and Banks is the scriptmaster and lean Rom machine.​
PSX is a fast, built from source (4.3_r1.1) Rom with an emphasis on speed and performance. Our goal is to provide unrivaled performance, stability, and a lightweight Rom with a handful of valuable features. We are not, nor ever will be focused on adding every feature out there. We will always be searching for ways to make it faster, more stable, more secure, and feature rich, but never at the cost of performance.
I want to thank all of those who supported me on this journey either through helping me learn, aiding me with issues, or testing for me. I especially want to thank @rascarlo for allowing me to post my builds in his thread for so long. He is a gracious host and the epitome of how a developer should behave and a thread should be run. I intend to do my best to follow his example in this area.
This thread will be a place of peace and community. We wont tolerate bickering, drama, or flaming of other members, whether seasoned or brand new. Not only will OT conversation be allowed, it is encouraged as I believe if fosters a better sense of community and an environment of sharing knowledge. Members will be treated with respect here and all questions will be answered to the best of our abilities in as timely a manner as possible.
Feature requests will be welcomed. We will however not add anything that compromises the goal of this project or is not deemed valuable to the Rom as a whole. Certain features will never see there way in including, but not limited to, CM PIE and Theme manager. Speed will always be the focus here with features taking a back seat.
Now sit back, enjoy yourselves, and oh yea........buckle up!

There has been some hard work put into this by some people that are just getting this down and still learning. I am surprised we actually got something put together, lol. Cause I smoke too dam much.
Wow. This ROM is exactly what I have been looking for....the best of heavily modded Roms with the lightness of aosp....slight customizations......one suggestion, a transparency slider in settings for nav and status bar. Other than that its awesome so far ?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Are you ruling out PIE in all forms here or specifically CM's iteration?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4
One feature that i miss a lot on aosp based/minimal custom roms is the Theme Manager..
If i see a custom roms saying built for speed and stability and dont have theme manager, customizable nav bar, and customizable quick settings, its all the same for me, they are all stock roms, even if theres addition to some options.
I just want to ask; is adding theme manager support makes the whole rom slow and unstable?
Coz i cant find a right answer for me. Thanks.
I may try this rom soon if its different from other aosp (4.3) minimal roms here in xda.
