CyanogenMod is an aftermarket firmware for a number of cell phones based on the open-source Android operating system. It offers features not found in the official Android based firmwares of vendors.
What works:
- SIM1 for phone calls (incoming/outgoing) and SMS, data (2g, 3g)
- SIM2 is a WIP
- Audio (microphone - now also outside phone calls, loudspeaker, headphones)
- Sensors
- Wifi (not wifi direct)
- GPS (no A-GPS yet nor EPO assist files, so the fix can take a bit)
- hw composer
- camera for taking pictures (not video)
- wifi and usb tethering
- battery usage stats (expect the usage for Display to be very unprecise)
- candy crush, facebook and twitter
What doesn't work, known bugs:
- 2nd sim card 3G switch
- camera for "movies" does not work
- (hw) video en/decoding not enabled
- FM radio not available
- A-GPS does not work, GPS works though but slowish
- rest of MTK specifics (what?)
- ... you tell me

Change logs
Change logs :
Custom kernel with various governors and included in v0.11 ROM itself.
New governors added in kernel
Intellidemand
Sakuractive
zzmoove
Pegasusq
Smartassv2
First go to Settings -> About phone and tap Build number 5 times.
Now Governors can be set from Settings-> Performance->Processor-> CPU Governors
Explanation on Governors :
Intellidemand:
Intellidemand aka Intelligent Ondemand from Faux is yet another governor that's based on ondemand. Unlike what some users believe, this governor is not the replacement for OC Daemon (Having different governors for sleep and awake). The original intellidemand behaves differently according to GPU usage. When GPU is really busy (gaming, maps, benchmarking, etc) intellidemand behaves like ondemand. When GPU is 'idling' (or moderately busy), intellidemand limits max frequency to a step depending on frequencies available in your device/kernel for saving battery. This is called browsing mode. We can see some 'traces' of interactive governor here. Frequency scale-up decision is made based on idling time of CPU. Lower idling time (<20%) causes CPU to scale-up from current frequency. Frequency scale-down happens at steps=5% of max frequency. (This parameter is tunable only in conservative, among the popular governors)
To sum up, this is an intelligent ondemand that enters browsing mode to limit max frequency when GPU is idling, and (exits browsing mode) behaves like ondemand when GPU is busy; to deliver performance for gaming and such. Intellidemand does not jump to highest frequency when screen is off.
Sakuractive:
This driver mimics the frequency scaling behavior in "on demand" but with several key differences. First is that frequency transitions use the CPUFreq table directly, instead of incrementing in a percentage of the maximum available frequency. Second "sakuractive" will offline auxillary CPUs when the system is idle, and online those CPUs once the system becomes busy again. This last feature is needed for architectures which transition to low power states when only the "master" CPU is online, or for thermally constrained devices
ZZmoove
ZZmove Governor optimized for low power consumption with the screen off, with particular attention to the limitation of consumption applications in the background with the screen off, such as listening to music. It has three settings: battery saver, balanced and performance. In addition to a performance boost, there is also the governor zzmove optimized.
Pegasusq/Pegasusd
The Pegasus-q / d is a multi-core based on the Ondemand governor and governor with integrated hot-plugging.
Ongoing processes in the queue, we know that multiple processes can run simultaneously on. These processes are active in an array, which is a field called "Run Queue" queue that is ongoing, with their priority values ​​arranged (priority will be used by the task scheduler, which then decides which process to run next).
To ensure that each process has its fair share of resources, each running for a certain period and will eventually stop and then again placed in the queue until it is your turn again. If a program is terminated, so that others can run the program with the highest priority in the current queue is executed.
SmartassV2:
Version 2 of the original smartass governor from Erasmux. Another favorite for many a people. The governor aim for an "ideal frequency", and ramp up more aggressively towards this freq and less aggressive after. It uses different ideal frequencies for screen on and screen off, namely awake_ideal_freq and sleep_ideal_freq. This governor scales down CPU very fast (to hit sleep_ideal_freq soon) while screen is off and scales up rapidly to awake_ideal_freq (500 mhz for GS2 by default) when screen is on. There's no upper limit for frequency while screen is off (unlike Smartass). So the entire frequency range is available for the governor to use during screen-on and screen-off state. The motto of this governor is a balance between performance and battery.

FAQs​NOTE: For every problem try a restart first.....
Q1. Titanium Backup not showing my backups?
Ans. Go to titanium backup settings then choose your backup folder location. As sdcards are swapped in the rom. Sdcard0 is your internal sdcard and Sdcard1 is your external sdcard.
Q2 Can't connect usb storage to pc?
Ans. Go to settings->storage and select usb connection from menu.
Q3 Can't see contacts from second sim?
Ans. Just use the rom normally for a day or two with some restarts.... It worked for me. The contacts should be visible then after clicking all contacts.
Q4 Cant take screenshots or storage problems.
Ans. You probably have flashed ebr partitions to increase internal memory..... Flash stock rom first through sp flash tools then again flash the cm11 rom.
Q5 How to enable usb debugging?
Ans. Go to about phone then repeatedly click on buil number.
Q6 How to enable ART (Android Run Time) and what are benefits?
Ans. Go to Developer options and choose ART from "select runtime"
By using ART less resources are used and apps are loaded faster.
Q7 How to disable vibrate on touch?
Ans. Go to settings->sound and disable vibrate on touch.
Q8 High memory usage by apps although no big apps installed?
Ans. ART uses more memory than dalvik. Switch to dalvik runtime if you have less free memory.
NOTE: Dont try video recording. Otherwise your device will be freezed and will have to restart. Also don't flash ebr partitions to increase internal memory and don't try any tweaks or anything because it's CM

Smooth and buttery ROM.

Great work DEV....you are saviour!!!!
:good:

Excellent work Santosh
This is a good beginning for magnus and its users for kitkat. This will surely help other develpers to port more CM based firmwares. Once again I appreciate your hardwork to serve people and time you spent on this port. Hope other developers will fix the hiccups and make it stable. :good:

Thanks Bro ....
waiting for this...

I can get those two in a week for you. But those two are completely unstable ( No network too ) and can't be used. U can just install it and feel the experience for a while. So its under hold.

rom is super smooth, waiting for the devs to fix everything and make it stable

Open Sourcing Mediatek - ZTE v970 ; SoC MT6577

Being owner of an Mediatek device, means (most of the times) not having the sourcecode published by the Official vendor.
ZTE never published their ICS / JB sources (they only gave us incompleted, and unbuildable sources).
--> Well ... This is XDA after all .....

Great work and thanks!

Thank you, good job.
If the file is copied platform.xml to etc/permissions/platform.xml you will be able to install applications to the SD card.

Hi
I'll be uploading an new recovery ( Twrp ) tomorrow, since cwm can be an buggy sometimes on KK. ( reboot doesn't work sometimes on recovery)
Edit: I can confirm that on calls, on 3G you cant hear the other person (Edit the OP with this info)
On 2G calls works just fine
Regards, have funn

It's very laggy in my ZTE.
Am I the only one?
EDIT: Not laggy now, all is correct. Thank you superdragon!

No problem haha
It's actually as smoother as JB4.1 or even slightly better.
--> KitKat uses less RAM (any 512MB RAM Phone can run it just fine), you'll see that KK gives you more free Ram, than any JB/ICS Rom.
Regards
EDIT: F.A.Q. and Kernel Features added on OP and following posts...
EDIT 2: New TWRP Recovery added (Its better than CWM ...)

Yes, KK's very stable on my devive(512mb ram). Compared to JB 4.1/4.2, it give more free ram. Don't lags, don't crashes. Amazing!!
Many thanks to superdragonpt you are great!!

Hi Yournametv
Yes KitKat runs very good on 512MB, i know, becouse i have another thread, Rom KitKat for micromax a110, and that phone only haves 512MB. and runs smooth
This is still "Beta" , becouse its the first release, but im my opinion, the rom, runs great.
I've been testing this rom for some days, and no big issues.
Please, feel free to share you feedback about the rom, im very Curious to know how's it runs on 512MB.
If you play any heavy game (RAM consuming) please share your feedback here.
Also try to play heavy games, that didn't worked on ICS/JB, KK is more light ...
EDIT: One of the bugs, seems to be fixed: Calls on 3G, i'll post later an patch for you all
Regards

thanks for bringing kitkat to this device
this rom is awesome for 512 ram device, after install full apps it left more 200mb free of ram, that was impossible in JB ,
I could moothly surfing heavy website in chrome, switch moothly to other mutitasking apps, I've never ever done it in lewa or JB. this rom make me love my phone more,
could you make a option to choose which sim to be used in 3nd message/dialer apps please? thanks in advance :victory:

BIg Games
Works fine with ''big games'' :good: . Tested:
- Boom Beach
- Candy Crush Soda Saga
- Clash of Clans
Thank you Superdragon!
EDIT: I'm in ZTE Grand XM (1GB RAM), 512 MB to play xD

calls under 3G Network
Ok , i heavly tested the new patch yesterday, and its now fixed.
Just bare with me, i'll upload the patch, as soon as i find some free time.
Im the time being, you can switch to 2G to make calls.
Regards

No sound during calls
Hi all,
I've just installed this ROM and (as for your previous ROM'S for v970) I want to congratulate (and thank) you on your work, the ROM's are pretty stable and smooth.
However, in this ROM I'm faced with an annoying problem in which when I make/receive calls the other person can hear me but I can't hear anything. I already tested the recording app so it is not certainly an hardware problem. I installed the ROM with TWRP and on the second boot installed superSU as instructed. I got no error messages whatsoever and all the other features seems to work as announced.
I have the v970 version with a single SIM (tmn version). Does anyone has/solved this problem?
Sorry, did not read all the posts previously, forcing the 2G solved it. My bad. Keep up the good work.
Thanks,
Best regards,
André Farinha

Only thing I'm facing is a touch response and scrolling issue

No,you have to flash it via custom recovery

@Aditya Kr ==>>
Thanks a lot mate...!! This ROM runs flawlessly on MMX A102.
But, there's a single problem. The IMEI gets set to NULL after flashing this ROM. I had made a backup of IMEI before flashing and so I faced no problem. But, you must add this to OP that "first make the backup of IMEI using MobileUncle Tools"

is there a version for mtk6572 that is not 3.4.67?

Thank you
Its the best rom

@Aditya Kr please corrected if i was wrong
Thread title is ROM MT65XX, but download link writed MT6572 and MT6582
Is it compatible for all MT65XX variant? Or MT variant which writed as download link only?
How about gapps? is it included?
And how about kernel? No need flash any needed custom kernel?
i will try it on LenovoS890 which based on MT6577
Hope it was my bad while read, cause i can't found gapps and kernel written as instructions
Thanks

I wrote MT65XX because it can be cross-ported for every mt65xx device running on STOCK KitKat kernel (3.4.67) or Stock LP kernel (3.10.xx).
You need proper CM12.1 base for crossporting it for your device.

The rom is really wonderful and it works great on my mmx a102 . But it has a little problem with the camera , when I try to video with the stock camera of the rom it crashes and say "can't connect to the camera" . This is not a big issue but pls try to solve it .

i have Karbonn titanium machfive which is mtk 6582 kernel 3.10.54. can i flash this rom on this device?
