Did anyone ever release a working deodexed and rooted stock rom?

I remember seeing one right around release but some users reported problems.
Anyone know of a working one with the things I mentioned?

Rooted, deodexed, stock ROM.
I know I can always add root back but be nice to have it baked in. Any rom out there like this?

Most in android development

Would someone be able to create a .zip file of the 4.4 camera and libs?

I miss the old 4.4 camera

It's no different than the 4.4.2 one albeit slower...

I've noticed more grain in my pictures and lowlight/indoor pictures are much worse than 4.4

bump

Please dont bump threads until 24 hours after the last post. This is in the forum rules.
Go back to 4.4 if you want 4.4 camera working

I wanted to know if someone could create a zip of the camera and libs without reverting thank you very much.

No because its not just camera and libs that have changed. Its kernel too so to have it working, go back to 4.4 or stick with it.

Is it possible to create a pure (plus N5-specific drivers) AOSP ROM from source yet?

Hi, I was wondering whether it was possible to create a pure (or as pure as one can get, if the Hardware drivers need to be included also) AOSP-based ROM from the AOSP source to run on the Nexus 5, yet?
I say "pure" because a lot of the AOSP-based ROMS i see include extra additions, which is not what i'm looking for. The Android Developer website seems to imply that it isn't possible yet, as the Nexus 5's Hardware drivers have not been released.

Yes it is. There's even a guide in general to do it. How do you think the existing roms with "additions" are created?

Oh thanks. I assumed they used Android Kitchen, which disects a previously compiled ROM? Ah well.

Are you able to link me to the correct thread (i'm using Ubuntu btw)? i'm wary of choosing an incorrect one. Thanks.

Go to general and search "build kitkat". There's a [howto] thread. There's only one

OK. That does include the Google Apps though, so that's note pure AOSP, but i'll see what I can do

By Gapps, I meant stuff like the Google Play Apps (Play Music, Play Store version of Search, play store version of Calendar, Gmail) etc.

[Q] Baseband switcher for the Nexus 5?

Maybe a silly question, but....
Does a baseband switcher tool exist for the Nexus 5, like there is for the Defy (for example)?
I bought my N5 from the US, but using it in South East Asia and have noticed week signal issues.

Not explicitly but there are only a few basebands anyway and they're all flashable via a custom recovery

Got it- thanks for the quick reply. Would have been nice to have a tool like that for frequent travelers!

A tool that automatically boots into recovery and flashes a specific zip? Its just as quick to do that manually

Got an n5 on the way. Is there a specific radio that is generally considered best? I seem to see some posts that the 4.4.1 update made people's reception worse?

No. As with all android phones, everyone has different experiences with different radios

I don't mind manually flashing-- the nice thing about the tool for the defy (which was my previous phone) was that all the basebands are already built into the tool, so it was just a matter of going to settings and selecting the baseband.
In any case, thanks for the info

Flash Stock Rom

Is there a way to flash stock rom in TWRP? I saw the instructions using adb.

Rooted stock roms yes. Not returning to full stock though. See sticky in general for that
