AS OF NOVEMBER 11, 2014: This project is now discontinued. Head on over to SpeedMod ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2622857) to get Android 4.4.4 KitKat.
I will not be held responsible for bricked devices, bootloops, and other phone malfunctions, either within the ROM or its pre-installed apps. I will however, provide needed support to the fullest extent I can give.
Introduction
This ROM (Cyanogenmod 11 - Android 4.4.4 Kitkat) is built from source using kernels and sources from @TheWhisp, @Giugiu19 and @smartandroidtech. This is pure Cyangenmod 11, no apps taken away or added.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why is WiFi not working?
A: I am already aware that WiFi isn't working. It is a problem with ath6kl drivers, it does not assign the correct MAC address (bluetooth works fine however). I'm currently reviewing commits made by TheWhisp in his GitHub for his Cyanogenmod 11 version for tass (Galaxy Mini 2) which solves the issue. Please do NOT PM me about this, or report it as a bug, because it is being fixed at this moment.
EDIT: Temporary fix can be located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56263735&postcount=15 (thanks @kk9999gada)
Q: When will the next release be?
A: The next release will be released when it's ready. Do not ask for ETAs. When a commit has been updated in GitHub, it will be added in new releases. If you want to help out, report the bugs either in this thread or in GitHub.
Q: What about OTA updates?
A: I'm thinking of introducing OTA updates for this version, although it's a 50-50 chance that it will push through. It MAY happen in the future, we'll see.
Q: What do I do if I have questions?
A: Post them in this thread, do NOT PM me about them. I check this thread regularly.
Tips to Avoid Battery Drain
A. Modify Kernel Settings
To do that, go to Settings > About Phone and tap the "Build Number" seven (7) times. You will now see "Developer Options" and "Performance" options in your Settings app. Go back and tap "Performance" and tap on Processor, then tap on CPU governor. Select "Lionheart" and make sure "Set on boot" option is checked. You could also try reducing the minimum CPU frequency to 122 MHz, although it is not recommended. Go back, then tap I/O Scheduler and make sure that "DEADLINE" is selected (it should be by default), then make sure "Set on boot" is checked.
B. Use the pico version of Google Apps
In the original post, the link to download Google Apps is the link for the pico version (about 37MB). It does not include most of the bloat that Google adds to its devices (Chrome, YouTube, etc.). You can install these apps from the Play Store if you need them, and you don't need to install them if you don't want them.
Pure CyanogenMod... sooo cool
P.S.
I really want to use this ROM for daily purpose but I require wifi so all the best for fixing the bugs
Wow.. Cyanogenmod 11 Android 4.4.4 KitKat for GT-S7500, Thanks Developers :good:
Thanks everyone.
As for the WiFi issue, I'm not really sure if the problem is case-specific. To those who are willing to try it out in it's current, broken form, it would really help a lot if logcats were provided.
Thank you!
You want logcats for wifi ??
By the way theming engine works>?
Thats Awesome.!! We r eagerly waiting for WiFi n camera.

Yeah, to make sure it's not only on my case. But those who are just willing to do so.
As for the theming engine, I haven't tested it yet 'cause there's no WiFi, I can't download themes to the phone. But theoretically, I'm 99% sure it works. I haven't modified anything related to Cyanogenmod anyway, so it should work as intended.

Some hints:
1. Be sure you are on latest CWM or TWRP recovery!!!!!!
2. Not all gapps packages right now are nice working. You can try others but at least I know that the one linked here is working. If you have other gapps which are working you can link it here of course
3. Full wipe when coming from any 4.3 or 4.4 rom (as well format system manually please)
Reporting Bugs
When you submit a bug you want to make sure that nothing from your side is causing it. Otherwise your developer might be hunting a bug which doesn't really exist.
The best way to achieve this is by doing the following.
1. Make a nandroid backup.
2. Perform a full wipe (factory reset + wipe /system)
Now we have two different ways depending on what kind of problem you're having.
3a. When you're having a problem with a ROM function, flash just the ROM without GAPPS etc. and boot back into the system. You will boot directly onto the homescreen.
3b. When you're having a problem with a 3rd party app in combination with our ROM then flash the ROM and GAPPS.
Boot now back into the system. You will boot to the setup wizard.
Log in to your Google account but make sure that you untick "Restore from my Google Account to this phone/tablet".
Finish the setup and open the playstore and download only the app you're having problems with.
4. Start a logcat recording and reproduce the bug (if possible more than once) while taking the logcat. If you don't know how to get a logcat read this tutorial or this.
5. Post the logcat in a txt file (this is important because you otherwise clog up the threads with your log) in the correct thread.
Please also write detailed description how we can reproduce the bug.
6. Restore your backup from point 1 and wait for a fix (don't ask for ETAs).
@kufikugel The recovery linked in post #2 is for the Galaxy Nexus (maguro)

During bootup, error "Unfortunately, messaging has stopped". Not a big deal though, but if anyone feels like getting rid of that, it is the mms.apk that needs to be deleted.
Other than that, everything else seems fine.

yeah..same error here.and camera also no go..
but others is good..hope tiles customizations coming soon..its the most important features..!
for camera we just need to wait for the 4.4 binaries google will hopefully release soon. I think the effort to hack now around to get the old camera blobs working and then reverting in some days back to the new is not really usefull. So a bit wait on camera
Mms....lmao unbelievable that google still not solved it in the source....next build will have mms fixed Man everything we need to do on our own
hehe
cheers
new version is up guys
with mms fix
Fixes new version:
- added dalvik optimizations....so speed up step one
- reworked and adapted status bar clock and date customization to 4.4
- added some of our camera features (smart captchure, jpg quality, color filter, gps indicator)
- reworked the complete camera to the new google style. Google stoped it after they finished the photo camera interface lol. So all into new PIE style + some fixes + more consistent now
- added a bunch of Mms/SMS fixes
- activated on supported devices lockscreen transparency on nav and statusbar
- some stability fixes
- fixed some google 4.4 code derps
- a lot small stuff
have fun and cheers
PS. the camera features for tilapia of course you cannot use right now
Cool ROM! i like it, but i hope more performance optimization coming

Not to get in the middle of your conversation, but using 4.4 daily, I can safely say 4.3 is past.

I wonder if you would be so kind as to add something to your 2nd post? A step-by-step procedure to activate ART. This would be a work in progress I suppose, as more info comes in. At the moment there is no central place, just widely spread out posts in numerous threads.

I can report newest build works flawless so far. ART is working, breaks Superuser though. Use SuperSU instead. Had the same with an early build of Slimkat on my Nexus7, no idea how they fixed this.
Awesome work TJKV!
/Edit: It won't boot anymore Don't know, what I did that caused this. I got everything ready, rebooted to backup and that's it.
/Edit2: again :-/ I flashed again, got ART ready, flashed gapps, SuperSU and restored /data from the backup I took. Booted up just fine, with all apps but greenify (that one was missing, no idea why). Installed greenify, didn't do anything else of note. Doesn't boot anymore.
/Edit3: after 3 times battery pulled the phone finally booted!
/Edit4: restoring a backup of CM now, maybe I give it another go tomorrow.

Thank you very much for all the hard Work TheWhisp! Honest! :good:
One question, what is the diference between an official port for CyanogenMod from an unofficial?
Nothing much. You would be able to use CM updater and get.cm.

Thank you for your hard work!! You're a life saver!
It seems to be working quite well, but com.android.nfc seems to be still force launching itself and is using huge amount of batterylife. Would it be possible to write it out of CM so it wouldn't try to launch, until you can get legit drivers for that NFC chip?

If you follow bugs in LP from the start you'd know these are minor
Recent bugs in LP were WiFi, Mic and Camera
these weren't working, and these were the major bugs, so now all of them are solved,
and we're left with these less important bugs
Regards,
Omar.
This rom is very fast and smooth, and battery life is better than cm12! keep it up! :good:
Hi Omar,
the ROM works fine, thank you (only the build-in SMS app crashes, now i use another app), but could you give me a link to a working TWRP?
I'm now on 2.8.4.1 but I can't mount or read File-System, the Recovery says: no OS installed and so on.
So I'm now very uncertain about the correct TWRP-Version.

You can use this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/fota-twrp-recovery-amami-t2909719
or the one from MultiROM, both are working great.
Regards,
Omar.
thanks a lot, Omar,
now I've got an working recovery, but one more Question:
change Filesystem to f2fs is in this combination of ROM and Recovery not working?
I wanted to play around a little bit, so this is not important.
Karl
now I tried the TWRP from the Multirom-thread, there I've got the button for f2fs.
Do you know, how long the next boot after formatting cache with f2fs needs? I was waiting about 30 min with running boot-animation and nothing happened, so I made a reset, boot into recovery and go back to ext4, but device runs animation, nothing else.
thanks for an info

Regards,
Omar.
Thank you Omar!
Updated without any problems!
switched from your RR Rom to SlimLP for my z1c, since i have SlimSaber from @fusionjack as a daily driver. seems all pretty alpha but very very familiar, stable and smooth. all works fine so far, video recording working fine, musicplayer was missing from the rom, RRO is integrated, layers working brilliant as on my bacon. using the same layers as on my bacon, same goes for viper4android working also great.
many many features are missing from what you already have ported from the RR roms, but i guess they will come cm12 amami nightlies are out there, so it would be nice, if you could port some old features like HW button remapping, quick settings tile reorienting, network indicator and percentage for the battery, kill app button (would be very important at first i guess) to the Slim rom. ask @fusionjack for the commits/code/features, i guess he would be pretty happy to share it makes it a bit easier to get along as fast as a single person can get
for the bacon, besides temasek as a cm12 using engine, i prefer slimLP for the RRO and layers. much better to get a style working.
thx for the amazing port of slimLP for the lil brother of my bacon, my amami <3. keep up the good work. good to see, that someone cares about the little things in life xD
best regards
Mike
Many thanks for this great work. I have only 2 questions. Hope you can help me.
1) Is it possible with this ROM to install apps on the external SD? In the past I had SlimROMS and was able to move apps to a SD card.
2) Is the camera working with this great ROM?
many thanks for the feedback
Rom works fine.
Thanks for that. Only one problem. When i go to recovery i always get the Red Triangle Dead Android.
Skipping this with the hard ressetbutton. Everithings fine. Just seem to lost my recovery.

Thanks

Will have to wait and see with battery life.. For me it seems that 5.1 is smoother tan 5.0 at this stage of development

The main thing im worried about is data connection at this point... All other bugs will most likely come with time
Sent from my LG-D855 using XDA Free mobile app
Ok I have this installed Will give it a spin and let you know how things go.
Does anyone know if Xposed works in this version?
EDIT: And the answer is an obvious no. Apparently xposed needs further updates to support 5.1.
