Hello everyone! Because i was tired of lollipop performance and bugs on our phone, i decided to downgrade to cm11. I found this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/rom-unofficial-cyanogenmod-11-t3216484 . But i cannot find a compatible kernel for it without losing wifi, so i have to deal with the screen flickering and subpar cpu management of the stock kernel. Can someone help me finding a kernel or making the newer ones work with wifi?
Have you tried the 4.4 Xperience kernel? Pretty sure, if I remember correctly, that I saw in another thread it doesn't break WiFi and had no screen flicker on L bootloaders.
I have tried the lollipop version of the kernel (XPerience29-falcon-kernel-test.zip) and it remains stuck at the bootanimation(no flickering though). The kitkat version(3.4.104-XPerience-18.zip) still has the flickering problem, it is outdated and has much weaker wifi than the stock kernel. The xperience kernel was my guess as well but the versions that work are pretty outdated.
I need it too, I want to use MultiROM with SlimLP as primary ROM and CM11 (latest build) as secondary ROM, but I can't make it work with Xperience kernel. I don't know which version I have to use.
It will be better if I could run stock KK as secondary rom but it's only a dream.
P.S: I am able to run CarbonROM KK as secondary (latest niropa's build), but I don't like it..there are some bugs

Can we use any ics/jellybean kernel for any ics/jellybean rom??? please tell me your opinion
Thanks in advance
Based on what I experience right now (flashed leaked jb kernel) I'd say that you can't but maybe it depends on phones and roms.
No ICS and JB Kenels are different and thus need to be specific to the Android version you are using. The case is slightly different with the verizon GNex on 4.2.2. They are still having to use 4.2.1 blobs since the device tree hasnt been updated with 4.2.2 blobs yet. This makes it to where most ROMs will still use 4.2.1 Kernels with the exception of the GSM OTA Port to the VWZ Gnex until the device trees are fully updated (assumign that happens). Cheers!
One of my biggest gripes with KitKat is the crippled webview. A number of great browsers relied on webview, and delivered an unmatched experience with text reflow and configurable zoom defaults. In my attempt to get it back, I've compiled a CM11 with the older 4.3 webview.
I have the newer Moto G LTE, but unfortunately there are no custom roms yet so I have not been able to build one for my own device. As a result, I'm looking for users familiar with the flashing process and are willing to try this out and report back on how well it works on their non-LTE Moto G.
Some information and warnings
- Rom base is CM 11 KitKat 4.4.4 (Thanks CM Team, dhacker29, etc)
- This is for the non-LTE Moto G, aka Falcon
- Uses stock CM11 pre-built kernel
- updater-script has not been changed, so it should be the same flashing steps as the official CM11
- I do not have the regular Moto G, so I have NOT been able to test this myself
- You should be familiar with recoveries and have a proper backup of your device
- You will be doing everything at your own risk. I am not responsible if you end up damaging or bricking your device.
Just leave a reply and I'll get back to your with a PM with a link to download the rom.
bump! Still looking for someone to help me try this out.
Hi Storm, unfortunately I've not a moto g, but a lot of issues on my samsung galaxy s2 plus with webview. Chrominium works orribly on my device. Can you teach me to build CM11 with webkit for my device ?
Hope you agree
Best regards, Ricky

There is an unofficial CM11 build for Peregrine, you just need Shabbypenguin's device tree from Github
I use a custom rom (Paranoid Android) which is on Android 4.4.4, but I don't really like it (mainly because there's not a dedicated settings for the PA features), so I want to change, but I don't really need a custom rom, since I use Xposed Framework, so stock Android is perfect for me, but I see that there's still only 4.4.2 available to download.
I've seen the changelog, but I don't really understand how importat are the improvements.
So should I keep using 4.4.4 (but a different ROM), or is 4.4.2 just as good?
Hi all,
I may root and install a custom rom on my tablet but just wondering which is the best one without alot of junk that would run quicker than stock Lollipop?
I have disabled most of the apps as I only use the tablet for movies/games/youtube, some net browsing.
Cheers

Hello,
I am currently using Flex OS ROM 5.1.1 on my Moto G XT1033. I seem to be facing performance issues with my device lately. The stock Lollipop firmware that I had (5.1) started giving problems. I have tried using quite a few custom ROMs (5.1.1 and 6.0.1) but they haven't seemed to have helped much. I still face lag issues. My phone is a little more than 2 years old now. Could it be a hardware related issue? I am aware that the bootloader cannot be downgraded. Can I use a KitKat based (4.4.4) custom ROM with the 41.1A bootloader? I would like to see for myself if reverting to a KitKat based ROM solves the issue. As far as recovery is concerned, I am using TWRP 3.0.0. If there is any better suggestion, it is most welcome.
Thanks.
You can flash one of the available KitKat Stock or Custom ROMs in Development. Bootloader does not matter. There is a screen flicker issue that can be resolved by turning screen off once. Some ROMs have been created that include a fix for this.
However do consider trying the following Stock Marshmallow ROM as performance is superior to Lollipop and the experience is more polished overall. It is very important you follow the flashing instructions in first post exactly:
