I noticed there was no active development that was trying to get the standard AOSP build working, which I really would like to use as my day to day ROM....so I decided to give it a shot. Feel free to help
I use the Ninphetamine kernel and a clockwork recovery initramfs. The initramfs has been altered and will not boot with other ones. This is because of a missing socket that the older init.rc doesn't make.
I'll be using the next post to describe what I'm working on and update it with any useful info I find.
Currently it's in an unusable state, here's where it stands:
Working
Making calls
SMS
Audio
Internet (Data Connection)
Note: When you open browser, it will crash because google's home page try's to use location services, you need to navigate away quickly in order for it not to crash.
Proximity Sensor
Internal Storage
microSD Storage
Vibration
Camera
USB Transfer with Internal Storage
Untested
Other Sensors
TV Out (doubtful)
Not Working (yet)
WiFi (don't even turn this on, it will reboot endlessly) <-- working on it
Camcorder
Bluetooth
GPS
USB Transfer with microSD (not a huge priority)
I know that cyanogenmod is pretty darn close to AOSP and that I'm duplicating work, but I'm doing it anyways.
If you want to try it out:
Binaries:
CWM Kernel Zip
CWM AOSP Zip
Note: Obviously you need to wipe.

AdamG has made devnull (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1183063&highlight=devnull) which is basicly the AOSP build. Some stuff not working though as the CM7 team has not managed to get audio over bluetooth working.
He has also started the Oxygen development. The oxygen thread is here: http://www.forums.acsyndicate.net/showthread.php/1591-ROM-AOSP-GRJ90-2.3.5-Oxygen-v2.2.1
Good to hear others working on this too, hope you manage to get bluetooth audio issue sorted and perhaps help other AOSP / CM7 devs with that issue.

Ah, yeah, I forgot about that one. I'll be leaving it completely stock AOSP though (when it works well anyways). Might speed things up for me a bit. I am doing this as a sort of hobby too, interesting to learn how it works.
EDIT: It WILL speed things up a great deal....DevNull did some great work.
search for the Oxygen ROM on google.
it's a rom for SGS2 where everything works, and it's only AOSP.
http://forum.oxygen.im/index.php
All the same, great work mate, we need more AOSP ROM's, since AdamG has taken a break due to personal reasons it's nice for another dev to take the helm.
Good luck mate, all the best.

Does A2DP work on Oxygen?
Sent from my CM7 powered SGS2
This xda members...
AdamG did great work yes but it does not preclude to new AOSP roms.
Keep your respected work.
Edit: If AdamG had taken a break, maybe you should think to fork devnull. This speeds up work and you can focus another thinks etc A2DP and tvout. Its open source
I have been using CM7 as well as Devnull/Oxygen and I felt Oxygen was very stable, while CM7 26 was the most stable for me while 31 made my me turn back to Oxygen.
My sincere request, kindly take over from where Adam left Will be a great boon for us!

yup, I've added nothing to it, pure aosp.
Hi! I'm trying to reproduce this compilation but no success. It stucks with a lot of libs errors. Any idea? I'm using a little modified device configuration from android_device_samsung_galaxys2.

I know, there are some Questions like this but there are not many answers...
I have an x10 mini pro nad never used a custom rom before.
No i see that here are a lot of different roms with different andoid versions and a lot of them didn't work very well (at least there are some users that talk about different bugs)
so i asked myself:
should i use a custom rom, and if, wich should i choose.
i never use my phone to take photos but i listen to a lot of music and surf trough the web. sometimes i think, that my utms thing could work better (maybe with a customrom) and that my battery could work a bit longer.
It woult be great if the laucher would work a bit fast (i use golauncher)
Also i use a lot of this googlestuff (mail, calander, maps...) and the gps thing and i want to use this stuff also with a custom rom.
so... what are the differences in all these roms? wich should i choose and which should i forgot? or are you say "no way noob, go away and let your phone like it is"
sorry but english isn't my local language
Hey if you want a nice and stable rom try using cyanocomb
Its fast it looks cool and the battery lasts longer than any other rom
Or if you want a gingerbread rom try ginger dx i heard its fast and stable and since it has cyanogenmod 7 you will have access to over 200 different themes

So, Just days after making my post about my thoughts on the latest stable Miui.us Rom which is version 2.10.26.3 I was looking through the original dev section and came across (almost as soon as it was put out) The Miui Lens edition. Which was originally titled to imply that the rom was able to be used right off the bat as a daily driver, so I downloaded, and installed it. And here was my original impression.
Before the first update release the rom was uninstallable, but this was fixed.
I installed it to realize that I stupidly had not installed gapps, so I picked from one of my default gapps version I keep on my SD card, and installed it.
I got back into the rom, to realize that out of the hardware keys (back, home, recent apps) the only one working, was back.
Within minutes, this rom was updated to fix said issue. And I currently have all buttons working, that said I am having a haptic feedback issue where none of the buttons make the phone vibrate, this was not enough of an issue to get me off the rom, so I continued and until today was waiting for another update to hopefully fix the issue, but even with said update, issues are existant that still make phone usage not completely satisfying, as it was in the Miui.us 2.10.26.3 version of this rom.
Usability current Testing results, and thoughts:
I would like to start out here by saying that I have every intention of going back to the lens release of miui as soon as I can confirm that it is stable enough for ME to use as a daily, which for me, generally means that everything I do on the phone has to function properly, without the need of downloading a separate application, or having to fix things manually. I like the lens release of the rom more SPECIFICALLY because of the developer. His releases of the Miui rom are getting better, not worse, and I likely believe that he will create the perfect Miui rom for our phone faster than the developers at Miui.us.
1. Miui Launcher Configuration is functioning properly
2. Miui Themes is currently functioning properly as long as an account is set up, during the set up process.
3. Miui Music test showed first, that the app was functioning properly, however upon secondary test of setting configuration I realized that when
the Id3 tag correction and album art download was enabled without setting up an account during setup process, that the music app would F/C
I rebooted and cleared my cache and dalvic.
4. Headphone test (Brought to you by the Lens Rom Forum) failed, without an application (headphone toggle) from the Marketplace any -----------headphones plugged into the device, will not output sound. The device will remain on speaker.
5. Miui Sound Recorder, upon initializing sound record brings the emergency notification (Internal Application Error)
6. Miui Music Visualizer on both lockscreen and widget are responding to system sounds only (such as a notification, or a previously enabled or defaulted touch sound. They do not respond to music.
7. Miui will not detect that music is playing and alter the lockscreen to music format for you, because of this, to access the lockscreen music controls you must double tap on the...dongle to drag and unlock, to switch to the music control lockscreen, this is not a major issue, however with the visualizer not working, the controls, and the widget look a tad bland for Miui. (odd how that works)
8. The Miui Virus Scanning Application is functioning properly (a test was done with a known app to contain a virus, it was found and removed)
9. The Miui Shake to organize on home screen is not currently an available feature for this rom.
10. The Miui Notes application is functioning properly.
11. The Miui Setup Process was completed without error.
12. Miui Wifi download speeds seem comparable to sense. However an issue with rom abuse may cause you to loose ALL internet access until phone was rebooted, I cannot test further as I am still currently unaware of how this happened. But after I got this rom, I was preforming tests on it to test stability for 3 hours straight without letting the device sleep, after 3 hours (and some odd minutes) my internet, while displaying I had a perfect connection in 3g, and wifi, would not download an app, load a webpage (tested on 3 separate browsers), or allow internet access to an application.
13. The Miui firewall application, Seems, to be functioning properly, however when first setup it did not block the first incoming call from test subject. All others, were blocked respectively.
14. The Miui Camera featured in this rom (actually a camera from a previous AOSP rom) is functioning properly, with all settings configured, It is not a Miui Camera but a modded camera none the less, and has interesting features, that I will miss, upon loosing this rom.
15. All Miui Notification configurations are working properly
16. Miui sound mods have been enabled on this device, allowing me to hear my ringtone from 3 rooms away in an apartment (currently not so on cm10, and Paranoid android (tho I do love that rom))
17. Miui Online music, notifications, themes, album art, and id3 tag correction will only work if an account is set up at the initial boot of the room during setup.
18. The Miui Torch is working without issue on this rom.
19. Awesome beats v3 is untestable at the moment but assumed working, as headphones can be enabled.
20. The Miui Built in equalizer is working properly on this rom.
21. The Komodo Sweep to Wake OC kernel is currently working properly on this rom.
22. Live wallpapers are working correctly on this rom
23. Miui Weather Widgets cannot function without a translated version of the Miui Weather Application that can detect US cities (not yet available)
24. The Miui Clock application seems to be functioning properly (tested alarm, timer, timezone config, and stopwatch)
25. The Miui Smart Dialer seems to be functioning properly
26. The Miui Call Record feature seems to be functioning properly (tested on a call with test subject)
27. Lockscreen wallpaper changer, homescreen wallpaper change, and live wallpaper change are functioning properly .
28. There is not a Miui Toolbox application on this rom (No root configuration other than what is listed in settings)
29. Adblock for android seems to be working on this rom.
30. Notification dual touch re-size seems to be functioning correctly on this rom.
31. Lucky patcher confirmed installed properly on this rom.
32. LBE guard and App control Miui Applications are functioning properly on this rom.
33. Prompt requesting root access is working properly on this rom.
34. Anreboot, and goo manager are working properly on this rom.
35. Dual core AOSP mod is functioning properly on this rom.
36. All but weather widgets are currently functioning properly on this rom.
37. Google voice (brought to you by the Lens rom Forum) is not currently working on this rom.
-I would like to point out, that sprint is partnered with google voice, and you can set it to replace your actual voicemail, and text you visual voicemail, making all your texts go to you, and all calls go to you, you have visual voicemail, and regular voicemail. It will also screen your calls and blah blah, idk what the app is for if it already does that, if you know something that you would be missing, please inform me promptly.
38. Lucky patcher patch confirmed working on all different configurations on multiple applications.
39. Flash for JB is working perfectly on this rom.
40. the Miui Browser is functioning perfectly on this rom.
41. the miui contacts application is functioning properly on this rom.
42. The miui messaging application is working properly on this rom.
43. The Miui Torch application is functioning properly on this rom.
44. The miui (breaking news) I just got another music F/C on lockscreen double-tap access
45. The miui Compass is working properly on this rom.
46. All lockscreen transition options are working properly on this rom.
47. 3g, 1x signal bars seem to be accurate in comparison to sense rom.
48. Calendar, reminders for calendar, and notifications for calendar are working properly on this rom.
49. GPS is gives me results accurate to 100 meters on this rom instantly, on Miui.us I get an instant lock to within 20 meters.
50. Mirror widgets are working properly on this phone.
51. Bluetooth is working properly on this rom.
If you have something you would like me to test other than the 51 things i have already tested for you please let me know below and I will try to get around to it within 1-2 days. I will keep a backup of this and of The Miui.us rom and keep them both updated, i will also, keep both of these posts updated to the best of my ability.
Thank you very much, and i hope you have a wonderful day.

I am...
I am a rom addicted htc user who wants to provide information for those who don't wish to flash a rom, and then find problems, when they could have looked to someone to tell them in the first place, and saved themselves the trouble.
I am also a rom addicted htc user who wants to see the roms I have loved on other devices (like the Miui rom) brought to the phone I love.
So I test to ensure that no one who is looking for a daily driver has to go through the pains of downloading a broken rom without them knowing about it when the information about the problems was nowhere to be found, but the good things about the rom displayed clearly in plain sight.
Thank you for replying to my post, and I hope you have a wonderful day.
If you're gonna do this you should make a general ROM review thread instead of making a new one every time you review a different ROM. Every time you write a different review in the thread just update the op with a link to the post with that review. Its not a bad idea what you're doing. It would just be better for everyone, including yourself, to have them consolidated into one thread.
Thank you for viewing my post.

Definitely understood youdug, actually thinking about creating a thread and moving all old OP review threads down a notch, so that the new review can be made more easily readable by people with quick running attention spans as the thread is updated, using multiple edits thats gonna be a hassle though at the moment while i have a time restricted limit on editing and posting, i was also posting them in seperate threads so that they would be viewed quicker and i could assign multiple tags to each, but i hadnt really thought about how i could put them in one thread while making them easily accessible.
Will definitely create a general rom review thread and find a way to make it work and once again...

Assuming the authenticity of your post I suggest a pro and con approach to reviewing. Saying that a certain feature is working just makes your review look like a college textbook.
"Thoughts on the New LENS Miui Release."
My thoughts are that it, and a few other ROMs, aren't GPL compliant.

I was thinking wow, amazingly harsh considering I watched this rom coming together over xda via communication between lens and various testers since he doesn't even have the device.. Maybe consider knowing how things came about b4 criticizing?? Just my 2 cents.. No intent of offense whatsoever..
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
thankyou...XHAUS
and the others....
I will try and update my rom fully and comply with the gpl compliance rule...
I may have been mistaken but...I thought GPL only complied to Kernels and maybe source based roms.....
If i am doing something wrong..;.Please let me know through PM and I will be sure to fix whatever is wrong....
But to all you evo users
and to all miui users this projects that i am doing for the evo lte is all thanks to the testers.
I couldnt have completed the rom since I dont have the phone..But thanks to the testers here
We all made this happen

Thank you for replying to my post. I could make it that way but im going to have to figure out how to do so without leaving some things out for testing, I suppose I could test and not post all the results from my testing on the forum and only post that things are working or that they aren't and I appreciate you taking the time to reply to my post.
@flex 360
I hope you do not take this as a REVIEW of the rom, but simply as what is working and what isn't, and im only displaying this information for the people who don't want to take the time to go through 100 pages of a forum to find out if a problem has been solved, just to find 20 pages later that another problem has shown up, Im not displaying this for people testing the rom as they want to go through and find the issues that you may have missed and comment on them to help development. Im writing these from the viewpoint of someone who doesn't want to test a rom, but does want to use it, because I am certain you know that there are a lot more of those people out there than people willing to test the rom.
But if you would like me not to post a view on your rom, I suppose I will not, but I can already promise you, that sometime in the past I have already flashed your rom onto my phone and used it for atleast a little while.
@fpineda101
Thank you for replying to my post, and I am glad that you understand what I am trying to do here along with some others. I am starting to understand that these "reviews" are coming off, to some people, in a different way than I intended them to. Although I would have left the term "noob" out of my comment I appreciate your understanding.
@sparytrainor
Thank you for replying to my post. I sincerely wish you would have read the entire OP before making a comment such as that. I gave many compliments to Lens throughout the entire thing, and I still believe he will have the rom working perfectly on our phones before anyone else out there because of how much effort he is putting into the development of his rom, I in no way intended to state anything negative about his rom, But to give information to people not looking to test, what is working, and what is not. Now that I understand how it is coming off to you and others I will begin to choose my wording more carefully.
Also, I had the rom within minutes of it being posted on xda-developers, and watched as it developed through the forum for a few days. To claim that I should look into knowing the person when I was one of the first to download and await progress is an incorrect assessment.
I also know that he is creating this rom without having the actual phone, which is inspiring, and another reason I attempted to compliment him throughout the entire process of the OP.
@Lens_Flare
Thank you VERY much for replying on my post. I do very much appreciate it and I hope you took no offence to my OP as I in no way intended for it to come off negative. I also hope that you understand my original (and previously stated) purpose for these threads. I am simply stating to the people, (not testers) but the majority, who are looking for a rom to stick with, that they can enjoy from start to finish.
I expect you to be the first to complete this rom for our phone and make it fully functional, WHICH IS ASTOUNDING because you do not have the actual phone. In all respects I look up to you and all rom devlopers on this phone as I am not one who currently possess is the ability to make one, and to be honest if I ever wanted to gain the knowledge and EVER create a rom, it wouldn't become popular as it would be a rom I could not post on this site (for legal reasons based on the apps and features that the rom contained, such as lucky patcher and black mart)
@All Rom Devs on xda-developers.com
I honestly had hoped that I would not have to clarify, least of all to you, my intentions for these threads. I simply originated with thoughts similar to those of the majority (the initial thought being, I want something different) and not as a tester of these roms, but as I came across a few (some not listed on xda-developers.com) and I realized that some of the roms that I REALLY wanted to try on my phone, fall in love with, and never switch from again, claimed no-where on their rom thread what the rom was currently missing, or what was broken (please note: I do not mean ALL roms on this site, but a few) and upon asking, I received the response (Flash, and see for yourself) which I at the time, I was not completely willing to do (as i generally have a pretty busy schedule, and cannot waste time flashing 3-4 roms a day). So i came to the thought everyone does, if you cant find someone to do it for you, do it yourself. Which lead me to do something that i do not generally want to do, but the majority of people downloading your roms are not testers, so i decided to take upon myself. Which is create these threads, and attempt in a way to make the issues seemingly understandable to people who do not even possess the proper knowledge required to understand what is wrong with the rom, even if told to them bluntly. Which i apologize to the majority, but again, is most people.
So if my reviews have AT ALL offended or been taken negatively by any rom developer, or even tester on this site. I sincerely apologize and i will begin to consider the wording in these "reviews". Because i in no way mean to offend, or be harsh, or state anything negative about your rom other than what the majority of people looking will want to see quickly. I view this as supporting your roms, as when a person who knows nothing about rom development, and has no appreciation for the rom developer (which i must sadly say is the majority of people seeking a rom) sees that your rom has ANYTHING AT ALL WRONG WITH IT (by their standards) that was not clearly stated to them, and they aren't willing to accept it, it will be much more difficult to get them to return to the rom, or their friends, or anyone they tell, or anyone who watched the youtube video they make, or anyone who reads their blog. Saddly this is how i must view the majority, and how i must explain to them what is wrong, in order to keep such a thing from happening to any of your wonderful roms that i have tried. I wish to see all of your roms become popular, be boasted about to people on the street by the majority, and see you flourish in the results of the incredible work you are doing to bring these roms to our phone, and this is a way i see to do it. I see one day walking past another on the street and hearing the name of the rom that i watched be developed on this site, And i wish to add my 2 cents in with these threads or this thread (which it is going to become)
Thank you all for viewing, and replying to my post, and i hope you all have a wonderful day.....

Dear readers and members of XDA-Developers
After installing a new ROM I've decided to post my experience here and hope it will be useful for u.
I've a Sola device with Gingerbread 2.3 preinstalled.... all Stock ROMS (ICS , JB , GB) are piece of *$&%^ ... too laggy and not smooth at all...
I've a Galaxy Tab P1000 too and I was having the feeling that my Tab is 100 times better than my sola....
decided to root my device and installed an experience V2.1 from the XDA-Forum too ... a little bit laggy but still not satisfied, especially that the Graphics were worse than my HTC-Touch HD.... I was not able to play any 3D Mid-Heavy game on my Sola ,,,, Battery was perfect and all connections too... so... for the Experience V2.1 ROM:
Advantages:
1- Battery
2- All functions are working (NFC, BT, ......)
3- nice looked
Disadvantages:
1- sola restarts if it got a call while charging most of the time.
2- Graphics performance is the worst ever.
3- Touching while charging will be completely impossible (crazy) but I think there was a fix for it.
4- not smooth enough and sometimes laggy.
5- boot takes about 3 Minutes.
and now after installing the CM-10:
Advantages:
1- Battery
2- most of the functions are working (Wi-Fi, BT, ......)
3- nice looked
4- very very smooth.
5- Graphics performance is the best.
6- no crashes.
7- boots in 20 seconds or less.
Disadvantages:
1- NFC / Radio FM are not working.
This is the best ROM I've ever used... try it ... u'll like it... :good:
Thansk @Error_Rebel for making this thread. I think it's not bad to have thread like this
I also wanna share my experience with CM10 (by ShoaibAhmed)
Some words:
This ROM is just awesome! I never was such statisfied with a ROM like now. You can just trust on this ROM and everything works as it should (except NFC - which I can't even test/use because my NFC Chip is dead ^^ - and FM Radio).
Advantages:
-Best workflow I ever had
-No Call UI lags
-Great performance (benchmark, heavy games etc)
Disadvantages:
-Not the best battery life in my opinion
-There are no more for me
Recommandations:
-CPU governor: abyssplug
-I/O scheduler: row
-CPU Frequencies: 200MHz - 1000MHz
Last words:
Probably the best ROM I ever used on my sola. I can just recommend this ROM to everyone out there!
Hey guys,
Could you say just a few words about present versions of KitKat based ROMs? I'm looking for fast(*) and stable ROM, which can properly manage RAM on my device. But unfortunately I don't see yet enough polished one for my device. Even if I was trying to use tweaks such as Fly-On Mod it's still not looking too good. And maybe your proposition would suits me, but sincerely I really wanted to stay on KitKat...
Thanks!
(*) I mean faster than stock ICS which is really bad in my opinion.
----
@Error_Rebel - you're writting only about two ROMs, you have installed on your Sola (besides the stock ones). Don't you think it's strange to read that this is "best ROM you've ever used"? It would be better to not read about Experience V2.1, but just about CM10 greatness. Cheers!

@Error_Rebel - you're writting only about two ROMs, you have installed on your Sola (besides the stock ones). Don't you think it's strange to read that this is "best ROM you've ever used"? It would be better to not read about Experience V2.1, but just about CM10 greatness. Cheers!

Many thanks lol98lol98 for your response .... u r right ..
pentoza ... I've installed:
1- GB - Stock - Very bad
2- ICS - Stock - same as the one before...
3- JB - Stock - bad ...
4- Experience V2.1
5- Experience Innovation (exactly as the Experience V2.1 only newer a little bit).
6- CM-10 - the best one ...
So my experience is based on six ROMs....

After yours recommendation I wanted to test CM10 on my own... Unfortunately it's the first ROM where I have problems with WiFi connection.
OK, no problems anymore - after second installation it works like a charm. Strange, because I did everything the same like first time... I hope I will stay with CM10 a little longer than with KitKat based ones. THX!

@Error_Rebel,
Do you maybe know how to properly install Fly-On Mod on the CM10? I don't really understand the step with patching services.jar (patching wasn't necessary on KitKat based ROMs)...
How should I do this, because i feel like a real moron stucking od this step? Of course if you ever tried that modification.

The best non-CM11 rom I've tried is SlimFXP's CM9. Stable, reliable, everything works (FM excluded as in any CM). Jelly bean roms can only hope to be as good as it is.
On any non-CM11 you need either Greenify or Appquarantine to keep trash apps frozen manually (appquarantine has widgets for easy freze-unfreeze of apps) or it won't deep-sleep properly (like say google services, Facebook, whatever keeps running and can't simply stay dead).
I tried various CM11 from the same dev (all ports, all the same kernel from munjeni I think)
Carbonkk, Hellkat and SlimKat
Carbon is buggy for me (cpu still maxed after a full day of letting it settle... all times I tried reflashing! nopenopenope!)
Hellkat is good but I'm not a fan of its UI and still needs some tweaking to behave.
SlimKat is boss (and also the one with latest update afaik). 800 mhz/200 mhz, Wheatley and Noop. Deep sleeps like a pro. Interface is a bit small but I like it (coming from SlimFXP CM9).
Is a bit slow to start apps after boot (like say Performance Control), but afterwards it's very smooth and responsive whatever I'm doing.
I also REALLY recommend to use Performance Control app to set android minfree task killer properly. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2401988
Even on CM9 android's own minfree task killer standard settings (bundled with kernel) are utter crap and stuff is terminated at random.
On SlimKat CM11 I can leave anything unfrozen and when i press the power button the thing goes to deep sleep within seconds and stays there.
Also android's own task killer is very good in CM11 Slimkat. Google trash is always loaded but always ready to be dumped if my apps need the space. Performance Control app is still needed for its settings and stuff, but Greenify or Appquarantine are no more.

Interesting. Did you tried also the one mentioned before by Rodger Rulez? Now I use eXperience v2 by 6 month, but I want to switch to CM again (I used FXP's CM9 before) and I'd like to see CM11 working on my phone flawlessly. The problem (or the value, depending on pov) is that we've lots of ROMs like Rodjer's, Munjeni's, XperiaMT27'S, ecc. and it's not easy to find the best for me that i'm an abroad student and I've not much time to try as i did before.

Q&A for [ROM] CM 11 ( Android 4.4.4 ) for Atrix (BigPart)
Some developers prefer that questions remain separate from their main development thread to help keep things organized. Placing your question within this thread will increase its chances of being answered by a member of the community or by the developer. Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy! :smile:
Does bluetooth work perfectly?
N.O.V.A 3
nova 3 runs in this but only on first install. to play again i have to re install the game from start.
I think it would be wise to remember that one line that many of us used to describe CM9 and CM10/10.1 after their releases with the 3.1.10 kernel. This is an experimental alpha build. It will have bugs and will need fixes. Alphas are not recommended for daily driver, but encouraged to be used as such to provide feedback to the developer on what might need to be done or where to look to provide stability and improved performance.
There are only 2 posts so far on this thread before mine
BT - relevant question due to the fact that BT is a feature found in all devices nowadays. Per Z's first post, BT calling still has an issue (I haven't tested this out due to the fact that I'm not quite sure where my BT earpiece is atm). I can confirm that it will allow file transfer to device, but occationally will stall and cause a reboot. BT keyboard (Moto's that was released for this device) connects, but not useable (confirmed by anyone else besides me?)
NOVA 3 - irrelevant question/comment. This is a game. While it is a good fyi to those who play this game, this game does nothing for the everyday user. This game and the info provided in the post does nothing to fix the random reboots, provide added ROM stability, fix BT issues, give us HDMI capabilities, start to solve fp issues, fix call recording, or fix encryption.

Netflix issue on V3
I am testing KitKat Atrix V3.
Youtube is working perfectly.
Netflix is not crashing more, like in V2, but it show a connection error message, with code -9.
Someone know how to fix it?
The same netflix version works properly in another mobile model with official kitkat
Can anyone post details of what's working and what's not working
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
What is the stable version?
I have installed the v3 version and im really impressed because it gives the Atrix a new live.
It is faster, and powerful than before. But it comes with a price. It is unstable. I get reboots very often. VERY often.
With this ironed out and with better support to bt calls and i would use it as daily driver.
Thanks for the good work.
Do you not understand the concept of "experimental ROM"?

My AHD had a broken digitizer and I fell back to my A4G for the past few wks and have used this ROM as a daily. I dealt with the reboots that you, me, everybody, and Z are all very much aware of since this ROM has not been updated to v4 yet, and b/c of the fact that this is an experimental ROM. Not many ppl besides you are complaining about the obvious downsides to using an experimental/alpha stage ROM. If these issues are such a problem for you, feel free to exclude yourself from the list of members currently testing and assisting with developing this ROM for stability and downgrade to GB, ICS, or JB.

And when do i started to complain? i have been misunderstood. I have been telling about my experience with the ROM.
And as i said... my phone is faster and more powerfull than before... so how it is a complain?
Part of the process is to tell the developers about the issues you may find, and to relate about your experiences...
I get a lot of reboots... almost 5 o 6 by hours... that is important information...
I think you two must relax and read what is written in the spirit it was written.
And in what mind a complain ends with an "keep the good work"??? really... REALLY read again and stop attacking people with good intentions...
