[Q] new user, one question! - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi just got the nexus 5 and its rooted rumning cm11 m9 and all is good. What my question is that will franco kernel work with cm11,m9 as im aware the latest version dont but not too sure about cm11 m9. I have tried searching but no luck.

Don't think so...afaik FK doesn't work with CM and derivatives

It should work with older versions, before they implemented CAF, not sure when that happened though.
Kind of pointless though, there are many other roms. Try some out before you decide it is the only one.
Nothing against CM.

Ok thanks for letting me know. Just angry as i gt the franco updater from playstore and it wouldnt let me uninstall or refund it so i had to force uninstall with sd maid pro

Thing is i have tried many roms on my previuos phomes (s4,s1,wave) but i always got back to cm i dunno i guess i only like CM as its stock google-like but with a few moar features. Paranoid is nice but its too much customized for me lol
I guess ill just wait until frano makes it usable again for cm11 m9

Franco will not become cm compatible. CM is the most customised ROM out there, so much so, it is the only (original) ROM to use CAF. You must use a CAF kernel with CM. Chaos is good.
Otherwise if you must use Franco (seems silly) you'll have to use stock or AOSP.

You should give Elemental X a try. It complements CM 11 very well.

As mentioned above: franco doesn't work with cm-based ROM!

You know you can choose which tweaks to use right? You don't have to have 238 DPI with luminous pink signal icons. Though that does sound kinda cool!

Why? Isit less customized? Look my thread was just about asking if franco is compatible with cm, not changing my rom. No offence to any1 but like i said i love cm rom and if franco is a no go then so be it. Geeeeeeeeeeeeeez

Then why mention PA at all? ...and the cite the most ridiculous, childish reason to NOT use it?
If you don't want to cause offense or make yourself look foolish, take more care about what you say. If you don't want to debate anything specific, dont say it at all.
This thread has run its course. Plenty of great cm kernels around.

I'm searching from some JB AOSP rom. Clean without any mod or tunning.
Yes, for S4.
What is the link?
Thanks.
Too many links to post but you got CM10&10.1, AOKP, Blackbean, DarkJelly.
But CM and others are tweaked roms. Not exist a clean & basic AOSP rom?

CM is the cleanest one you can get, nobody has done a pure AOSP rom and don't see much point in it myself but then I already find CM a bit plan anyway. Just give it a try you might just like it and it not like you have to use said tweaks.
Indeed, theres little to no point with a pure aosp roms. Hardly anyone wants that, it doesnt make any sense when the "tweaked" ones are so much better.
If you want a pure aosp rom, you'll probably have to build it yourself.
I'm running the latest CM10 nightly and like it. Too me, CM is the closest you'll get to pure AOSP without buying a Nexus. I recommend trying it out.

Is there any official or unofficial site to download AOSP roms? CM10.1 has laggy when touch, so frustrating...

ChameleonOS first public beta is out!!

Just a heads up that our ChameleonOS (ChaOS) public beta is out www.chameleonos.org. We should have our threads up in the development section in the next few days, but you can feel free to give it a try now.
Just installed. Seems great so far. No issues with the install, and everything seems to be running smooth. Great work!

I've been running it for a while now before release and haven't come across any issues, would be nice to see if i missed something
Keep in mind if you want to change themes you can use MIUI themes, just there may few a images that don't cross over, but they almost completely theme it. We hope more themers pick up now that we are released

This looks neat.
Is this based on CM10.1 or CM10 releases, or branched a long time ago?
Does the theme engine allow a customizable phone dialer layout? I never liked the CM10 dialer, but I know some roms allowed the ui to be shuffled.
I should probably just download and try it, but my internet isn't handling another big download right now.

It is based off 10.1, as of now you can't change layouts, but that app hasn't been worked on yet, and has plans to change..we have a thread on our forums for suggestions if you have dialer layout ideas in mind

Hmm, finally something new which is not a mashup of CM, AOKP or PA.
Are Gapps included?

Is this based on the 4.1.2 cm builds? Just read a couple post back. It says cm 10.1. I checked the change log and it says 4.1.2. Trying to port this. Been using 4.2.2. As base.
Never mind I looked at the build prop says 4.2.2.

Who likes Stock CM Mod Better than Stock?

So I`m thinking of making the change over to CM Mod nightlys.
So I have just been running stock 4.4.2 with xposed.
Thinking about just using CM mod nightlys (I read that the nightlys are sometimes more stable than the snapshots)
And things seem nice and quick just playing around but I need something That wont give to many problems How has CM been lately? Also how is OTA updates? are they reliable enough to not have to keep wiping each time theres an update?
Thanks
Also Does Xposed Modules work on CM roms?
And is there a recommended kernel besides using the stock CM One?
There are alot of great roms... Alot better than cm.

Just try it for a while, at the end of the day its just about preference. The CM rom itself is rockstable and the stock kernel performs very well and offers good batterylife.

What this guy said but to add, keep an open mind there are a lot of good ROM's out there. Purity and Mahdi come to mind. On my n4 I used carbon and couldn't wait to flash the next nightly but I got away from that.
I recommend Chaos Kernel since they went CAF or Elemental X has CAF version

Need a new ROM. CM or PA or ...?

I'm currently on the ROM: Resurrection Remix v5.1.5 but I experience it as a pretty unstable ROM so I want a new and stable KitKat ROM (4.4.4).
I was thinking about flashing Cyanogenmod or ParanoidAndroid but maybe there is also a better ROM but I don't really know.
I need a stable ROM for daily use with good/smooth performance and good battery life.
With Resurrection Remix I had apps that I use a lot often force closing on me like Whatsapp+ and Swype and also background apps often randomly stops working.
Also having a lot of SOD's with it and very laggy moments.
So what are you guys suggestions of flashing which ROM and why?
I really don't know, wtf is going on. U all guys have sods, force closes etc. I have used RR rom since last summer and never haven't had big problems in this rom.

Okay that's what I need a stable ROM, but what about the smoothness/performance? But I also want to hear some stuff about CM11 or other ROM's.
Didn't had any RR on nebula and what is BLN? (Noob question I know...)
Anyone suggestions left? I would like to flash a new ROM tonight and I'm still not sure if I need to flash CM11 or PA...
Also didn't heard about any other ROM's.

What about the smoothness/performance/battery just like I asked in the previous question?
On the topic of PA it says that Play Services drain battery..?
Okay planning to flash a new ROM tomorrow night because tonight I didn't had much chance to do it and I still didn't hear anything else from other ROM's.
So please does anyone else has something to tell about other ROM's?
I'd take in consideration PacMan too. Seems like a decent combination of other roms, but haven't tried it.

Also I think it's kinda weird that the XDA users who are active on the threads of the ROM's doesn't say anything in these kinda threads because I think they have the most experience with different ROM's

[Q] Custom ROM

So... I'm planning to switch to Nexus 5 because my current phone (xperia zl) is lost...
Can you guys suggest me a good custom rom? I mean lag-free (no lag when you pull down the notification drawer), and stable ?
Thanks a lot, sorry if i'm asking such as unimportant question, i'm new in here
Since AOSP is built for Nexus range, they're all about as lag free as each other and all pretty stable.
Just look for the features you want and try the roms...

But i've read on some website said that PA, Carbon, and Mahdi is laging.. .Is that true?
If they are, its users poor setup or certain apps. ?
Stock is noticeably faster than pacman cm based ROM no matter what my settings were.
Going to try a couple more aosp based Roms like rastakat for the missing features from stock.
Will definitely be sticking to aosp Roms now though and not bother with any cm based.

Cm has always been a battery drain for me since cm6. Its never been more stable than anything else. Maybe their final versions are as stable as everything else, but all their nightlies and everything else released between the final versions always seem to introduce bugs. And they always change stuff that doesn't need changing.
I will never use cm again. Simply awful.

read the xda threads on xda in general, q&a. many many times its cm thats unstable. besides, i spent years on cm, i know what it can be like. anyways, for the nexus 5, there are many roms that id consider more stable than cm.
First time trying a cm based ROM on my n5 and first time I have stability issues. Had to hard reboot cause it wouldn't wake up at all.
