There are two types of custom Roms. There is the Roms based on the OEM version of android (touchwiz from Samsung and Sense from HTC) and AOSP. AOKP is an AOSP ROM not another type of ROM like MIUI is. With that being said we don't make recommendations as it leads to debates about which ROM is the best. Also everyone here has had different experiences with each ROM to really be of any help. Lastly your thread will be closed by the moderators.

The reason i ask is cause i go to this lnk and only shows aokp on one. As for a new person its a bit confusng.

AOKP is just a modified version of CM. aokp.co: http://aokp.co/devices/d2vzw You'll want Milestone. Keep in mind this is 4.3 and it's based off CM10... there isn't an AOKP for 4.4/CM11 yet.
If you're talking about AOSP-based roms, which are different than CM-based, there's a few (Gummy, Liquid, Carbon, SlimKat...); my daily driver is Gummy with the dkp kernel.

That isn't up to date as there have been at least 20 or so ROMs since then. As I said before AOKP is an AOSP ROM albeit a popular one. AOSP stands for Android Open Source Project. Roms like CyanogenMod,AOKP,ParanoidAndroid and PAC-man are all AOSP ROMs. AOKP is a specific AOSP ROM. The AOKP ROM on that link is the official one created by team AOKP. Beepea206 CyanogenMod is still an AOSP based rom as it is based off the official Android releases like all other AOSP ROMs. Yes they have added their own code and features like the ROMs I have mentioned in this post but they are still AOSP based ROMs. It is like Ubuntu and other Linux OSes they all have added their own codes and features but all are still Linux OSes.

Is there a up to date list on the ROMs than. Since I find ones like the one I posted is out of date. Or a master list of aokp ROM and aosp ROMs and such?

Wrong, albeit semantically.
- AOSP roms are those compiled directly from Google's sources, with device and hardware files modified to work with the rom. For a rom to be 'pure AOSP', it has to be free from any CM repositories, which is why all the non-CM roms right now are 'AOSP-based'... they use the hardware and device repos from CM. As it stands right now, there are no 'pure' AOSP roms for the d2vzw.
- AOKP is a kang (aka the 'K' in AOKP, or Android Open Kang Project) of CM, generally adding more features like the navigation bar and status bar tweaks. There are also AOKP builds that 'cherrypick' things from CM and the AOKP githubs.
- CM is a custom, modified version of the AOSP framework with a slew of hacks and mods; it's essentially a derivative/variant version of Android, drawing on the open-source nature of the OS to create a new one.

No their isn't any at the moment. You will have to go through original Android development section and it isn't a list per se .

Custom ROMs not based on CM for Moto G available

Hi Folks,
Maybe it´s a silly questions, but are there other non-Stock ROMs that CM-based available for our Moto G?
All other Custom ROMs are somehow based on or related to CM, or?
Am I right? Can somebody bring some light to my dark brain?
THX

There are other roms that aren't stock nor based in CM. The paranoid (PA) and the AOSP are examples.

PA is not an example, it uses the CM sources for our device. In fact, the builds we get - AOSPAL - are all based on CM's device specific repos and only use the frameworks and settings from PA.
AOSP is only ROM not based on CM.
To answer the OP, no there are no other type of ROMs for our device as of now. Either the ROM is based on CM or on Stock. We also have a firefox OS port, but that is also based on CM sources.

Only the nexus devices have PA based on AOSP. Our device is supported by AOSPA legacy ( use device repos from cm and are therefore called legacy).
If you don't believe me, check the github of AOSPA legacy.

CM11 is CM11. Only difference is the device tree (drivers etc).. All functions are identical. As with most large development teams, they have one master branch with all teh core features then just device trees for each device to make the ROM work.
CM11s is slightly different though as it is only for the OnePlus and has some unique features. Porting a pre-built ROM is always more problematic than compiling one from code though

I asked the question but I already knew the answer.

Ah ok.
CM11 for G2 is the same as CM11 for N5
CM11s port for G2 (From OnePlus) is different to CM11 for N5

[Q] SlimRom question

Hi there people,
I'm thinking of trying SlimRom and I was just wondering many roms say "AOSP" and actually are CM based(which is AOSP afaik), is the SlimRom cm based or AOSP in it's pure form?
I'd like to try some AOSP roms(not based on CM)
P.S. If you know other roms with reduced size feel free to share

SlimRom kernel is CM based. But it has to look and feel of AOSP. The only OPO ROM that I'm aware of that does not use a CM based kernel is Omni.

Rom talking, almost all AOSP roms use CM code... which doesn't mean they are entirely CM based. Afaik, Slim and AOSPA (and other projects) take many things from CM source but they keep their own line of developement, and in some aspects they diverge a lot. But in all cases, they use (as you stated) CM kernel base. Omni is the only one that's truly independent from cyanogen (rom & kernel), I think. Plus, you now got our manufacturer working on a pure AOSP rom, but I'm unsure if cyanogen did that or Oppo.

You're gonna have to be patient then. Or just try Slim, it may use the CM kernel but you're not going to notice that at all because kernel operations take place on a lower level behind the scenes.

I'll try SlimLP but when it's ready, right now I see only unofficial nightlies..
When I had DHD I was willing to try every possible combo in order to get just a little bit better performance but since now this isn't the issue I prefer something stable, even 44S I'm on isn't stable enough for me.

You are referring about AOSP by OnePlus ..man still at alpha stage WAY too buggy for my taste, maybe when it's stable I'll try it.
Although here on xda some created patches and bugfixes but still I'm looking for rock-solid stability, I have speed(compared to my old and previous DHD) so I'm not seeking on testing 10 roms per week as I did in the past

I just asked in case I was unaware of something, my field is computers in general and I might lack in android and surely don't know everything about it
Too bad vanilla android isn't around for every phone(nexus style roms), just bare bone android with proper drivers in it - that would be fast ...and slim
P.S. I'll try slimlp when it's out I guess(officially), thank you guys for all ur answers - Fact, it might take a while..I expect 1+1 to deliver rom sometime in late feb(or early feb with bugs ..depends) after that in March or May I should expect SlimLP ..don't take my word I'm wild guessing

I thought Robbie's was official, guess I was wrong. Like I said though, it really doesn't make a lick of difference, it's still built from Slim source, the One and only difference is that it's missing the official tag in the title, that's it. People all too often mistake that tag to actually mean something, it doesn't.

1+1 has already many bugs in it's latest 44S I really don't want anymore even if it's a glitched icon, a minor issue or something that most people don't care about. I see "official" as a "we've test it more than just flash it and leave it for a couple of days"
I mean you know 1+1 has issue when 3rd party camera app is installed and you try to use flash on low light enviroment right? it's probably a driver issue although FV-5 app fix this(workaround), stock camera doesn't have that bug. So in SlimLP if I use the camera does this occur in a 3rd party camera app? ..this should be solved when CM12s hits the market, dunno if it's fixed in the not so official SlimLP
I guess I better back up and try it.. what I have to lose except some time? (I did flash with my previous DHD even 5-6 times per day)

Official definitely doesn't mean that. Take CM for example, it's done by a buildbot, no testing at all, and that's completely official. I'd take Robbie's builds over an official release any day of the week. That's what I'm saying, the perception that official is better is completely false.

CM is the worst example as even cm official builds are buggy sometimes(no proper testing and I'm talking about stable released not nightlies, the guy who build the cm camera app in the past had a long post mention it - nice guy)

Building an AOSP rom for bacon

Hey, I can't a find a clean and stable aosp rom for bacon that suits my needs, so I want to build my own. But I need help, I havent built roms before. Only compiled another custom rom once.
Would compiling aosp (+ caf & cm to make it work?) for bacon require much programming skills?
I would be very grateful if someone would assist me in making of the rom, or at least point me in the right direction.
I would only need some very basic custom features in the rom. (clear all recents, cm snap camera ...)
I have Ubuntu 15.04 with a little over 100gb of free space, installed as dual boot besides windows 10-
Thank you.
Also please do not recommend other "aosp" roms in this thread for me to download and install, I want to make my own.

If you want a nexus experience I can recommend AOSP-CAF you . It is basicly barebone AOSP without any additional features.

AOSP rom for bacon would basically mean cyanogenmod without cyanogenmod features, so reading your requirements i say you try the AOSP CAF rom or the Krexus rom, both the roms fit yuor requirements (read their respective threads). good luck

I found this ROM http://downloads.techexhibeo.ski/Android/LegacyServer/aosp-mm6.0.1-20160621-bacon.zip, I don't know who is the creator of it, but it is great. The perfect aosp rom for bacon. I'm using it now, seems very stable too. I recommend it for anyone who wants a clean aosp experience.
