BY W A N T O W A N 2​
This ROM is based on the Android Open Kang Project (AOKP). The idea to start a ROM based off AOKP with added features for us was started out of curiosity and boredom. We started compiling ROMs for personal use and later started sharing them. After sharing it with a few people, we decided to take it a step further and fine tune the way we do things. Since then, is been nothing but fun and a true learning experience for all of us involved. We've received high praise from not only users but fellow developers of other ROMs that enjoy seeing things done the right way. Our 4.2.2 version made it onto various devices to include the HTC One, Galaxy Nexus, HTC EVO 3D, HTC EVO LTE, Nexus 4 and some other devices. We hope to do the same with our 4.3 version.
"Give credit and thanks where is due!" That's something that has fuel the way we do things! With that said, we would like to go ahead and credit those individuals and groups that have made this ROM possible with their original code and contributions to the Android community.....

Instructions : (**See notes below these instructions for special notes. v.7 only)
DownloadRecovery for 4.4 ROMS
Download ROM
Download GAPPS package
Reboot into recovery
If you are coming from a 4.3 ROM, you MUST flash the updated 4.4 recovery at this point
(If you did have to flash 4.4 recovery, go to advanced then "reboot recovery" before going on.)
GO--> Data/Factory Reset In cwm you can now use the fresh rom option here.
Does more then just data. Or, go on.... ***
then Wipe cache
Enter mounts and storage, select -Format System.**Go Back**
enter Advanced Folder --> wipe Dalvik cache. **Go Back**
Flash ROM
==>>!NEW! There is a lot going on at boot. Sliding a reboot between the
rom and gapps is not a bad idea here...
Flash Gapps.
***The last time I checked, (long time ago) TWRP's all-in-one function was incomplete and dysfunctional.
You still need to format 'system'.
*** If you find a bug, please provide as much info as possible and/or a logcat
click me!

ROM -THIS ONE IS NEWER AND IS KINDA STACKED.
OooooK, this should have it now. BUT THE ISSUES WITH THE BLN ARE BACK A BIT
DOWNLOAD YOUR NEW DAILY DRIVER NOW!
philz_touch_6.41.6-skyrocket.zip (A MUST for any 4.4 ROM)
ROM - STABLE
pa_gapps-modular-micro-4.4.4
PLEASE DO NOT MIRROR ANY VERSION OF THIS ROM!
- IF THERE'S AN ISSUE WITH THE LINKS, JUST LET ME KNOW!

NOTES:
Kernel Tweaker!
This is a fairly full featured app in Settings. Fully configure all aspects of the kernel
(except for UV for some known reason). Worth doing this. Set what you know, then set but leave default settings on what you don't know about. Doing so will allow the highest cpu GHz, the lowest battery = best performance and very stable.
KT is also a great ROM/update/gapps flasher. Right from the rom.
Regarding wakelocks and the ability to control them now.
I recommend you look into these and which ones you can disable.
If you do put in the time to search and ask some questions here, your battery will love you!
Heres a head start ===> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1827676

What's Next.....?
Camera is still a challenge. I put in "A Better Camera App"
and a PlatStore version of the ICS Cam. Bothe of these will give you
HD 1080 res for both Cam and Camcorder.
NOTE!! While the ICS Cam is perfect given our vendor blobs,
it comes with ads!!! Please, enable the ad blocker in
"settings/DirtyTweaks/Misc. Tweaks"
Use it first or make it your default for seamless rom integration
Also. Because of the huge amount of feature here, you will not get a silky smooth
experience until you set all of the kernel, init.d tweaks and animation. My advice
is to 1) head to SU first and set it to what you want. 2) ad blocker as described above.
3) USE THE KERNEL TWEAKER in settings! It is no more or less then EXACTLY
what you need for this rom/kernel. Built by and for this rom. Using all default settings
is just fine but check ALL of the check boxes in there. It is built in so nothing will work better
BUT while it takes advantage of all the features in the kernel, it UNSETS the built in defaults
of the kernel on boot so it can work. (some settings may appear or disappear depending on what you select. ex. Performence- nothing there. BadAss- This sexy Gov., is tweakable and has settings.
- Gestures!
- Device specific features - AKA Advanced settings (sensors, touch sense etc...)
- LCD Density to ROMControl
',
'-> workaround:
For the dpi, assuming you have signed into playstore already,
is to go settings/apps and wipe data for playstore. In root explorer
go system/build.prop, open to edit with read/write and scroll down to
density and change the 200 to what you want. 240 is stock.
Save it and reboot, sign back into playstore.
Alternatively, ROMToolbox has a build.prop mod function.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.liberty.toolbox
-Lock Screen cLock/weather
To allow the time/date/weather/calendar...etc to show up customized,
set up cLock as usual in ROMControl and push power to turn off display.
Push again and swipe down the clock borders below the clock digits to
extend the lock screen carousel. Swipe to the right and tap the plus
sign to add a new widget. Add cLock. Swipe to the left and long press
the original clock then drag to the top and delete.
The new customized cLock should settle into place.

Thanks for bringing another Rom to this great phone! :thumbup:

No no, thank you guys for all that work. Just amazing.....

I'm drooling just looking at the description. But the thing I can't live without is Zoe + video highlights. Any recommendation on if it can be done, I don't think so bc I've been told those are only on sense.

Zoe, I think that is an HTC specific app for their cam. I haven't heard of it for the SR but I can see about it for you.

Haven't had any issues since running this. Also, screenshots work fine for me.

I have to thank @ktempleton for bringing me in on this rom. This wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for him so peeps should pass some his way too.
This ROM will be everybody's DD. Damn, like KT says, 'It will take people 2 weeks just to learn the rom". Meaning, there is just so much functionality!
For those that know me from BeanStalk, know that I, at the very least, try hard to keep up with users, questions, features, kernels, source updates etc...
This ROM comes tight. You won't see a ton of updates. (ie: every other day) Updates will come with version updates only. (Unless something crazy happens)
I will keep the same tone in here tho. That's another thing people from BeanStalk will know about. NO CRAP! lol I understand what it was like to be new and how intimidating this all can be.
Searching first is ALWAYS advised just so nobody looks foolish but if you need to know something ROM specific, just ask. Everybody will be respectful in here and help out if I don't see it right away.
I always say. There is no need for anybody to be in trouble. I'm available.

I've been using Bean for a long time and I've gotta say it's one of the most respectful threads I've ever seen on XDA. I will also say it's been a long time since I've been hoping for an MD5 match. lol I've been looking at this on other devices for a while and am glad you compiled it for the Rocket. I would thank you but I just burned my 8 for the day thanking you in the Bean thread. Solid work man solid.

Woah! Feature packed holy....quick question about "active notification" is it just dynamic notifications from play store or what did you do? That app is giving me some issues so if it's baked in real well like on the actual moto x, that'd be AWESOME. Thanks again

Yep, seems to be well integrated. The last time I gave that a good test was a week or so ago but should be fine.

Bug Reports:
Reporting bugs is important But reporting them properly is KEY.
If you think youve came across something that is not working as desired [bug] folow these steps to report.
1. RE-flash your rom cleanly and do not install gapps or restore anything. This will confirm the bug is in the rom and not a compatibility issue with your data or chosen gapps.
2. A logcat is very important for me to trouble shoot the bug ..
3 pull a logcat by connecting your device to the computer and open terminal then type adb logcat hit enter.
4 navigate to your bug and recreate it while connected and watch for a fatal exception.
5 copy the text apd use paste bin to share it with me.. after youve saved it copy the link and post it in the thread. Please ensure youve captured the fatal exception in the paste otherwise it will do no good.

This one too

I'm looking forward to it.
Droyd, I have a huge request if it is possible. For the future builds please include THIS patch also. Currently there is only one ROM that includes it and that's BeanStalk (I've asked phoenixita to include it when he builds it). Without it, my car-kit is useless.
ROM is working smooth and fine. Even if you say it has only "basic" things, it has alot already. The bugs I've found are the general KitKat bugs affecting almost all ROMs. First the nasty backlight issue during calls. Then I found that in Settings - Volume even if you tick to have separate ringing/notification volumes this is not preserved after you go away from that screen. You just have to tick/un-tick the option again when you're back there. But as I said, they're present in the other KitKat ROMs also

By the way when you switch the sounds to link or unlink you are selecting OK at the bottom right? I ask cause I'm not getting that issue at all.. I select OK and it sticks.
What is the backlight issue..?

I've pressed OK I do like this: go into the menu, by default there is only one slider for ringtone&notifications. Below is the checkbox. I un-tick it to have separate sliders and there is appearing the slider for notifications. I'm adjusting a lower volume for them, then press OK. If I go again into that menu, what is strange is that the checkbox remains un checked but the second slider for notifications is gone (not shown). The only one remaining is labeled only "ringtone" this time but I have to tick/un-tick again the option to make the second slider appear. On the other hand, on the expandable volume panel (brought up by vol buttons), there are 2 different sliders. It's only a visual issue, in fact the volumes remain as they were set...just the notification slider seems to vanish
The backlight issue...is the most anoying bug present for now in ALL KitKat ROMs. I'll explain. Make a phone call (to a toll free number for ex) then take the phone away from your ear. The screen is lit right? OK, now cover the proximity sensor with the hand or finger, screen will go blank. Normal behavior...BUT... Sometimes the screen comes up after you take the hand of the sensor but remain very very dark (suggest you make the test in a dark room to notice). As the screen comes up but not the backlight of it. Make several tries with the hand covering the sensor, keep it covered several seconds...finally you'll see it.
One more thing...the bug is not happening if the phone is charging (connected via USB or power socket). It's happening only when is not connected to PC. I hope I've explained well

Hmm OK I'll check into it a little.

Lol OK yeah that's a cm bug but since all ville ROMs are based on cm its present in them as well.. I believe its a kernel issue since I don't have it on the mako.. Another one I'll have to dig for..

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why isn't there XXXXXXX feature.
A: Shoot us a Suggestion if you want to see something added. While we are not going to promise to implement, we will always look into it
Q: But CM and all the others have..
A: ROM developers, including CM, build something they want to use. The ROM dev that includes something they won't run implies less than 100% effort to ensure it does work. As a team, we have similar goals and objectives. If XYZ ROM has a feature you want, and we don't (or don't want), feel free to use XYZ ROM, or build your own custom version of Octo-Kat

A Note about the Team OctOs GApps
We in Team OctOs believe in choices. We believe in leaving the fundamental decisions about your phone to you.
In that spirit, Team OctOs gives you options for your GApps experiences. While any ODEX'ed GApps package should work, we offer you the choice of using some of the same GApps packages that we use ourselves, and leave the choice up to you.
You can find our Team OctOs GApps packages here, and break down into the following types:
GPe - Google Experience
Regular GPe GApps
Dalvik-Enhanced GPe GApps
AOSP
AOSP GApps
Dalvik-Enhanced AOSP GApps
The Dalvik-Enhanced packages are NOT ART compatible. If you plan to run ART, don't use those.

We will only update the DevDB with Stable Releases, whenever possible. This means that the DevDB may be behind non-milestone releases.

Any dailies that can be released, we will release there. Please note, we pull these releases after a day or two, so if the latest link posted there is empty, simply wait until the next one.

While we are certainly not requiring donations or money. But donations of money or devices will certainly speed along development. We plan to purchase and build 3 identical servers to be able to handle the work load of building our ROMs. Hosting, Electricity, and Parts alone are out of pocket at this point. But we love what we do. So, if you feel led to send us a device(even old ones you've moved on from, or new ones) or small donations towards our server project we'd be extremely appreciative. Contact @Dubbsy for device donations. He will make sure they get to each team member as needed. Thanks to all the users who make it feel like we are doing something that people enjoy!

Just saying hello. We are here to be different and to tell noobs what they need to hear.
Our mission statement is REAL AOSP(not CM)+GPE+OctSettings = Team-OctOS.
Enjoy the ROM. We as a team are ever expanding and are working on adding more devices daily. Treken and I are normally nose deep in code. So don't expect us to be around non stop.

Just tried flashing with the latest twrp and it failed.

Just got it running. Looks pretty nice. One feature request. Would it be possible to use the aokp nav bar vs. The cm navbar? I'm asking because I like to add a few custom apps to the nav bar (eg phone, hangouts) so I don't need to use launcher space for them.
Thank you for the build, much appreciated. Its always good to see new ROMs for a device.
---------- Post added at 08:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:10 AM ----------
@Calvin check to see if signatures are needed on twrp under twrp advanced settings. I had that issue with omnirom. My first boot didn't get past the Samsung logo, but rebooting started right up.

We don't use CM's Trebuchet launcher. We use aosp but our gapps replaces with Google launcher. Sometimes I use Nova which is free and has many options as a free alternative.

So far so good. I used PHilZ recovery to flash and no issues, just flashed the ROM and Gapps, said no to root the device and then let sit. i then setup my account and then rebooted and flashed the 1.86 SU update zip in recovery and all is working well. I like the cleanliness of having the mods all under dev settings. Using KT's kernel (just because I'm used to it) and his settings. Good to see a nice AOSP rom over here. I might need to read up some on davlik optomized apps. Great work and thanks for sharing your work

No joy with attempts to download.

Messaging app is still packed with the ROM, hangouts gives you the option of using it, but you can turn it off.
The builds are coming. We had some updates to include and I'm writing thru the build outs now. They'll be up once as they complete.

Appreciate the explanation of what's going on. The reason I said that about the messaging is because I never saw a messaging app icon in the drawer. I did see two phone icons? I will probably wait until the new release b4 I flash again. I really loved the ROM it was butta, and that's a fact Jack.

Two phone icons is because GPe gapps has the Google dialer. Need to keep the original dialer or it doesn't work.
As for the messaging app, you're right. Dubbsy may have removed it, I'll ask him
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

I am really digging the rom with the clean look and especially what the other person mentioned about all of the options being in the development menu. It really gives it that stock feel. I am so excited about Octo now that I have fire up the old Kubuntu side and am Repo syncing right now . Keep up the great work and of course my next stop is rating the thread.

You need to set up your build environment. Then you should look at our source, especially "platform_manifest". We should have a new build up tonight or tomorrow morning. Everyone has been uber busy on our team.

I set a build environment up and have a slow machine was about done and accidentally exited the terminal window . Anywho I was using your source I love github Anything I can do to help your team. Love your ROM and concept and even the logo

So everything is running great. I love the rom. HOWEVER! One thing that I haven't been able to tackle yet is that is not sleeping for me.
"PowerManagerService.Wakelocks" is keeping it up 24/7. I have no idea what this is. Granted, I woke up checked BBS and now got to work so I haven't had too much time to google it up but I thought I would post here if anyone has any suggestions.
Thanks!
Edit: Oh and I'm sorry but the boot animation is just god awful :laugh:. No biggy at all. Easy to change. Just saying haha
2nd Edit: Flashed Uber Kernel and it's sleeping like a baby. PowerManagerService.Wakelocks is still there obviously but not nearly as high as it was. Also, I was getting wlan_rx_wake. Since flashing Uber, it's gone. Weird (maybe not, I know nothing about kernels). Anyways, that's all. If anyone still has any comments regarding the power manager wakelock it'd be much appreciated. Thanks!

PowerManagerService.Wakelocks is a container for everything under Partial Wakelocks, so you would have to look under there for the app that is causing the program.

Thank you for the reply.
I had read that in my google searches. But it just doesn't seem right. I'm not doubting you in any way, it just doesn't make sense.
Example: right now its at roughly say 2min 30 secs. Under partial the highest wakelock is RILJ and bluetooth at a whopping 20 secs and and 10 seconds. After that I have a couple others that are 1s and 3 secs. I don't even hit the 40s mark collectively.
Regardless everything is running fantastic. Even my bluetooth doesn't cut out anymore. Really amazing work!

I having issues getting this rom to boot.
I tried using the 1/25 build that's posted here and the PA gapps. I tried the full gapps, but that was apparently too big for the Skyrocket system partition, so I ended up using the Modular-Mini gapps. I double checked the MD5 hashes and they apparently mach. The two zips flash without issue, but as soon as I go to boot it up, I get a black screen and then a quick vibrate and i see the SAMSUNG logo. After which it sits at a black screen.
The first time around I tried using TWRP, but that recovery is apparently incompatible. I did a little research and found CM11 roms should be flashed using CWM. I flashed PhilZ's Touch CWM for CM11 and tried flashing again and I still can't get the ROM to boot. I'm pretty sure I followed the directions correctly. What am I missing here?
edit: I just noticed it does finally boot in. However, I'm seeing artifacting and corruption to the point where everything is barely recognizable. If I would venture a guess, I think my refresh rate is off? I've never seen anything like this... I can definitely interact with it, I was able to get it to reboot using the power menu.

this is happening to quite a few people on newer 4.4 roms, regardless of recovery or wipe routine used. The only "new" ROM I got to boot is the brand new 1/27 hellkat. Not sure what the cause is but hopefully the latest CM merge(s) will rectify this issue..can't wait to try this rom!!

i am proud to present to you beanstalk builds i have made for sgs4g. This is a build composed off of the cm11.0 builds and i have added alot of features on top of it and all features from scotthartbti's original rollout. So you get speed, stability, and ultra customization ability. Many of the additional code additions came from slim rom and also derteufels build and have been modified to work with my current setup. A huge thanks to derteufel and the slim rom guys for their work and dedication. Also a big thanks to everyone involved with cm as that is the building stone in this project. Thanks to skyliner33v for the bootanimation and upcoming wallpapers!
I plan on updating this and adding features on a pretty regular basis, so if you happen to like this, keep checking back.

the option of custom Set Wallpaper in custom backgroung type the lockscreen is not working. Nothing happens when selecting the option.

I uploaded a new userdebug build for 05/14. Its on goo.im in the link in the 4th post
This build should be even faster, smoother, with bug fixes... Enjoy

If anyone still gets that keyguard lock delay... I think i found an app that fixes it. Search google play for sdfix. Its first one. Allows the permission to write to system sdcard file lots like in 4.3 and before. Usually goes away after or is reduced a lot. Reboot after. 0514 rox i think. Kernel makes it much faster. Gonnna try an eng build

Theres a 05/17 userdebug build up and an eng build 05/17 with -eng at end of filename. Not much of difference i thought id make both though.

I deleted 05 17 eng cuz of the red box. But 0517 userdebug is up. Enjoy

There are some problems with another dev and him not having the juice to confront me. Instead bothering others that use the same resource. Because of this I may need to find a different box to build from if anyone is willing to host a 64bit box. I like beanstalk.... I like building and helping the community. I was working on 3 other ROMs including omnirom. As of now beanstalk is way faster then slimsaber and aokp. I hope I don't have to vault development because of someone's misguided delusions

I see that you say this rom is faster then slimsaber. The real question is how s the battery life. With slimsaber I can listen to music all day at construction that's 7a.m. to 7.pm and still have 60% battery life.
And a big thankyou for all you done

Question: I am currently running a build from 12/31/2015 (4.4.205-20131231). What improvements might I expect by installing the new build?
Thanks.

Lack of future awesomeness. Since your build is a year and a half into the future, might I ask if the battery now lasts 3 weeks on a charge?
If instead your build is actually from 2013, not 2015, then your basic improvements will be fully functional GPS and some benefits like that.
But I'm hoping that you're actually a time traveller that has somehow fallen on hard times and that you're trying to sell your future knowledge.

Yep...I borrowed the time machine from Stewie (the kid on Family Guy).
Meant 2013, of course...and I already have functioning GPS...applied the fix some months ago...working fine. Any other advantages to upgrading to the newer build?

I'm in the process of moving (again). Might not have ayime to update builds until after June 1st

Are the 5/18 build and 5/21 build the same? Both are the exact same size. I was just wondering cause I didn't want to dirty flash for no reason. Love the rom, my old 959v kicks way more ass headphone audio wise than my Nexus 5. Still use this phone as a WiFi device/MP3 player for the gym and as a backup phone. Gotta love Wolfson DAC+Voodoo Sound. Thanks again.

None of the releases are the same or exact same size. While the size difference is small.. There are bug fixes in every release because when I build and do repo sync it downloads any updates from cyanogenmod or slimroms or beanstalk repos. There was at least 8 commits in mauly 22nd release. I would download zip weekly unless I state that u should flash it. Build 22 is in post 3 and is solid. Uploading an eng build soon

And yea bro the audio on headphones is amazing. Some of the latest commits were for Bluetooth so

When flashing the newer build from an older build, is it necessary to one-click back to stock and go from there or can I just do a full wipe and flash the ROM?

You dont have to go back to stock once u flash cm7 or higher. Once you are on mtd you are good. So you can just flash over your current rom of beanstalk.. You can factory reset and flash.. You can delete system and flash. With the updates being minor you can safely just flash over previous rom. Although i normally factory reset and del system. Choice is yours but flashing back to stock is not necessary

Wi-Fi perfomance
What about wi-fi perfomance? I used my phone a lot with wi-fi network and I want to now if this ROM have a weak wi-fi reception (like cm10.1).
