Perfect Android is a redistribution of the Android Open Source Project and Google software code that I have lightly modified to make as a daily driver for myself that I'm sharing with the community. This project doesn't have and won't focus on adding a ton of features and mods but instead focus on stability, and reliability so yes basically this is a stock like rom but not just stock my only efforts will be to make it run better, and be more polished, and complete.
GOOGLE APPS ARE INCLUDED

If you have an error or something pops up I ask that before you post about it please make sure that you are running the ROM as provided. I cannot troubleshoot anything that is related to using other kernels, mods, or themes.
This ROM is basically like a stock rom of jelly bean so there is not a need for screen shots ........
Always remember that XDA started out as a great place and will remain a great place as long as we are great to each other anything used in this ROM is available upon request and feel free to use this as a base rom for any other project my ROM is un-branded just give me some mention .......
WANT TO CUSTOMIZE THIS ROM READ THIS:
Like the ROM and want to add or remove anything or customize for yourself use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246 DSIXDA's Kitchen. Its a great kitchen for customizing prebuilt ROMs

Google - I used their apps
AOSP - of course
Probably gonna add a changelog here
AOSP 4.2 ROM so quickly? That will be interesting
Can you have some screenshots?
yep its uploaded
it looks just like stock I built it to be at least as good as what you get from google if everything is working correctly that is when I will begin modifying but for now it looks like the stock ROM so I didn't think screenshots would be needed
first of all you have to give us changelog, then i'll flash it, because now i don't know exactly what are the differences between Your rom and stock, so is it worth flash it?

Its solely up to you guys if you want to flash it as this is an expensive hobby for me I'm just sharing what I do with the community so is it worth it, for me yeah, for you I really don't care, I hope I'm not coming off as an ass but I have to draw a line somewhere. I not making any claims with this ROM I just sharing it if you use it fine if not fine, I don't get into the whole screenshots large claims huge changelog thing I just post and share I also maintain this ROM for the Sprint Galaxy Nexus which it has done just fine so if you want you can do a search here and see what and where I come from .......
I'm very happy when see any new rom in N7 development, because nexus need fresh look from developers, so i was thinking that You could push some new tweaks into ours devices. Almost all roms here are just "cleaned" or "minimalistic" or "performanced" in real these rom are almost stock with the same user experience. So do not get angry when I want to know if there will be something more here...
Does it work with twrp?
After flash with twrp, I see the information is Android 4.2 JOP40C. I dont know whether it is flashed or not?
I will happily try your rom to see how it compares to CleanRom, give my feedback tomorrow

I'm not getting angry with you in fact I agree however, regardless of how you feel about those roms someone still put that effort into them. Honestly for me the N7 is a new device and before I go making claims that my ROM can start your car and end world hunger I want to make sure that it at least meets stock standards. AOSP has done a lot of work to somewhat remove google entries in their code so it has taken me a few days to re-build AOSP code to work correctly with G-APPS and other Google code I do NOT claim to be an over the top developer I just do this as a pastime I have certain things that I do not like and thats why I have started making my own ROMs so that I always get what I want. Now I can tell you this and I know this as a fact THIS IS NOT A WINZIP KITCHEN ROM IT IS BUILT FROM SOURCE it took hella work to get it up to a win zip ROM and thats where we're at so far lol. When I learn all the changes to the 4.2 coding I will start to add small feature to my ROM.

OmniROM Unofficial Builds
As you all know, OmniROM has been announced yesterday. This brand new ROM contains a lot of new, exciting functionality. One of these new functions is the multi-window support! Just like ROMs on some Galaxy Notes, or the ancient Cornerstone, you can run two applications simultaneously! Aside from that, the best thing about this ROM is the focus on the community: while the ROM itself is not available yet, the developers behind it really seem to be willing to listen to the community, which is a really good thing.
As the team of OmniROM states on their website:
Omni is what custom ROMs used to be about – innovation, new features, transparency, community, and freedom. We offer you an alternative to other ROMs that may choose to water down their distribution at the expense of providing options for the user.

And the list of features as listed by XpLoDWilD in this topic:
Flippable Quick Settings
Roadrunner mode
Multi-window(!)
Daydream enhancements
Integrated Performance Control
Multi-workspace
Color-changeable, 3D depth Phase Beam
And a bunch more

Unofficial builds
However, builds are not available yet. Logically, the ROM probably has not been thoroughly tested yet and that's why they are not building their source on a nightly basis. If you are as impatient as I am, you probably want to get your hands on this ROM as soon as possible! That's why I compiled OmniROM from source, for the Nexus 7 (grouper).
This flashable ZIP has not been tested yet by myself, but it should be OK. Compiled on Ubuntu 13.04 x86_64, completely as-is from the repository of OmniROM. Let me say again that this ROM is not modified by me; it is directly compiled from source and packaged into a ZIP. All credits go to the team behind OmniROM at http://omnirom.org.
Downloads
The builds below will probably be updated about every three days. I recompile from source whenever significant modifications are added to the multi-window functionality.

Thank you
If you appreciate the time I spend to compile these ROMs from source for you, a donation would be appreciated as it would cover a bit of my expenses on power. Aside from that, I am hoping to save some money before I go to university next year, so any donation is much appreciated! PayPal donations can be sent to [email protected]. Thank you in advance for your support.
Notes
Multi-window can be activated by opening an app. Then go back to the launcher by pressing Home. Load up another app. Press the Multitask button, long-press the app you opened previously, and hit 'Split View'.
The Back button is not working at boot. To fix it, go to Settings > Language and Input > Default (under Keyboard & Input Methods) > Google Keyboard. The force closes of the AOSP keyboard won't happen now, and your Back button will work fine.

I take it you get a set_perm (status 7 error)? This has to do with the updater script trying to give permissions to a file that doesn't exist, it is relatively easy to resolve. I'll take a look once I get home. BTW, tilapia, mako and flo are probably officially supported, which is why they are mentioned, as this is an unofficial build, it isn't (yet) mentioned

Grouper is mentioned in the post of OmniROM, Grouper is available in the device tree of OmniROM, and this build is meant for Grouper.
The ZIP has been corrected to flash correctly. It was doing some set_perms on non-existing files. Those issues have been resolved now. However, the ROM fails to boot for some reason. I don't know why it is not booting as this is a completely unmodified build. I am going to sync the repository again now and do a new build. This afternoon I'll have a new build to try.

God I hate this new ADB system in Jelly Bean. Only allows a logcat if you grant access through Android itself. But when your device doesn't boot, it is impossible to get live logcats atm. Still working on a fix and progress is being made though
CyanogenMod is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 4.3 (Jelly Bean), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.
Code:

* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts.

Reporting Bugs
You are allowed to report bugs only in this thread.
Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. The following is a useful format to follow.

Testing now after a fresh install and so far all seems to be working. Even though I can't find an option for screen sensitivity settings, the default seems to be the same as extra high in CM10.1 which I'm very pleased about as I couldn't abide using anything less! Thanks very much for porting this @pawitp :thumbup:

Then that's beyond the scope of the changes in cm 10.1 and cm 10.2, and is probably a hardware issue.
First of all a big thanks for your work! It is great to see, that development hasn't died yet on the a700.
Until no I am on stock rom, because my tab is relatively new and 4.2 seemed to have some performance issues because of the additional bar at the top of the screen introduced in 4.2. Based on what I have read, the stock Rom is the one which feels most fluent, so I keeped it.
Now my questions is, how does 4.3 behave? On my Sensation 4.3 brought very noticeable improvements over 4.2.
I don't need multiuser support or any other functional feature 4.3 might have, I'd only like to know if this rom would improve the overall user experience which today is a bit laggy here and there (time until the keyboard is popping up etc.)
Thanks in advance

Performance is roughly the same as 4.2. I'm regretting getting this instead of A510 which would be really smooth.
By the way, can you scroll smoothly in Google Music on stock ROM?

For me fhd was a must have and the A700 seemed to have a good value for the money. I should have read some xda threads before buying it but it never came to my mind, that a quad core tablet could be laggy.
Google Music scrolls fine, but my library isn't very large..
I think I'll try your Rom and see how it goes. Only need to get rid of my girlfriend first

Hi. Just installed this and I like it. A few others have been having issues with chrome and location services causing soft reboots and really bad stability. This ROM does not have that problem. I tried first with the full PA gapps and had issues with Google search and the Google calendar FC. Wiped and clean installed and used the Banks gapps. All is good now.
Gonna go install the Elemental X kennel now.
Thanks for the ROM.

HI @jakdillard . First off thanks for the great AOSP ROM. Glad to see more entries. I have a question not about the ROM because its excellent for me but ever since the AOSP ROMs started coming out, some of us have noted a recurring problem with many of them. @scrosler maintains a AOSP ROM which is afflicted. @ctfrommn does too for some of us. The main problem we have is that when we load these ROMs on our Nexus 7 wifi editions and visit pages which request access to locations like www.google.com, www.yahoo.com or others, the chrome browser crashes and for me it causes a soft reboot. If we just stick to the aosp ROM after some bit of time the AOSP browser also gets very unstable and will start crashing no matter how much cleaning, clearing, etc we do. @scrosler had documented some of this and we've collaborated a bit trying to figure out why this happens. On rasbean, carbon, your ROM, and a few others it does not happen.
I am hoping perhaps you could share some knowledge and let us know any commits, if you saw this behavior before you put the ROM up and did something to fix it. Any info at all would be very helpful. I'd love to be able to see this fixed and get the other ROMs working.
Thanks for the contribution again.

Very well put. I build rom's from aosp for myself. I am, of course, running into the same issues. Clearly there is something being added by Google that doesn't exist in aosp to make Google location services work. Obviously this rom has it. With the support of the aosp apps being slowly phased out in favor of Google apps, we are going to need a patch in order to be able to make a fully functional rom. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

HI @jakdillard . First off thanks for the great AOSP ROM. Glad to see more entries. I have a question not about the ROM because its excellent for me but ever since the AOSP ROMs started coming out, some of us have noted a recurring problem with many of them. @scrosler maintains a AOSP ROM which is afflicted. @ctfrommn does too for some of us. The main problem we have is that when we load these ROMs on our Nexus 7 wifi editions and visit pages which request access to locations like www.google.com, www.yahoo.com or others, the chrome browser crashes and for me it causes a soft reboot. If we just stick to the aosp ROM after some bit of time the AOSP browser also gets very unstable and will start crashing no matter how much cleaning, clearing, etc we do. @scrosler had documented some of this and we've collaborated a bit trying to figure out why this happens. On rasbean, carbon, your ROM, and a few others it does not happen.
I am hoping perhaps you could share some knowledge and let us know any commits, if you saw this behavior before you put the ROM up and did something to fix it. Any info at all would be very helpful. I'd love to be able to see this fixed and get the other ROMs working.
Thanks for the contribution again.

I have to look over those other roms sources to see what they are missing more the likely they don't have the location services pointing to the right adapter or still using the old way of making device trees causing make to not put the overlays together correctly.
Nice ROM Jak!
Syncing your Repo now!

Update 11-3-2013
Well there a beta quality build of KitKat in the op this will not be a daily driver until I have a complete source to work with and proper proprietary binaries but good luch and enjoy. Also consider this a nightly project as features will slowly be added.
Always under the radar for some reason, but your builds are always fantastic. Great job as always on 4.4. Loving the additional features.

I know he added a file manager and volume rocker wake. Those two weren't in the OP for the first build.

Unfortunately flash fails inTwrp 2.6.3.1.
Awesome. Best KitKat ROM of all I have tried so far. Smooth and no fc or other issues at all so far. Stable in tests that other ROMs have failed. Thank you!

I believe twrp has updated to 2.6.3.2
Great build!
Just wondering if anyone else is getting the keyboard every time you hit the home button coming form another app? Not a big deal, just curious.
Thanks!

I just double tap the home button. It's less annoying.
Love Jack's creations. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing.
Hi. As you propably know, there is no TWRP 2.7 for saga. This is why:
Saga would need a number of updates in order to make it work with 4.4 Kit Kat ROMs. 4.4 ROM support really doesn't depend on the recovery itself. The kernel and other parts of the ramdisk have to support SELinux contexts in order for the set_metadata functions to work. I don't have a saga myself and at this point I have no plans to continue to support the device. I've been building saga in a CM7 / gingerbread tree which doesn't support the things needed for SELinux. The device would need to be compiled with an updated kernel in at least a 4.1 and preferably a 4.3 or 4.4 tree to support installing Kit Kat ROMs.
I plan to drop official support for any device that I've been building in ICS or Gingerbread trees which includes saga. If people want to see continued support for those devices, then hopefully developers for those devices will step up and build TWRP themselves and maybe offer their updated device files to us so that we can extend official support.

So basically we need developers who would like to help with that. I'm not that techy to understand what the problem is but I would like you to tell me and help.
BTW! Why our device is not available in DevDB! How do we change that?
Hm. I might take a shot at this. Though I personally prefer 4ext

It would be really splendid thing to do sir
Got it to build, just not to boot. I guess a black screen is no use to anyone
Will fiddle some more with it.

That's great! It would be even better if you could somehow share some of your work here so maybe someone else could take a look (i don't know if it's possible. But you use github right?) I would love to add this project to DevDB but it seems that our phone is not there and i don't know how to add it.
My github repos are at https://github.com/jdeluyck - I haven't uploaded anything yet save for the changes to the repo file to pull in TWRP.
Here ya go, first build of TWRP 2.7.0.0 for Desire S, which seems to work
Please test and let me know
PERFECT!

I flashed it, I backed up my rom, I wiped, I flashed my rom clean, it booted, I went to recovery and I restored my rom. Everything went perfect, no problems whatsoever! Now there are 2 questions left to ask.
1. May I update TWRP for saga developement thread and attach this build?
2. Would you be willing to offer updated device files to TWRP team? From my observation most people download TWRP drom official website and it would be great if 2.7 would make an appearance there.
Anyway great work devil-kin :highfive: Personally I see TWRP as the best recovery and I'm on it from 2.2. Seeing it still working in its latest iteration on my beloved DS makes little tears appear in the corners of my eyes. I absolutely love this phone for it's size, specs, build quality and weird survability (many screen to sidewalk encounters and no broken glass Only praiseworthy scars). LONG LIVE DS! <3

Sure. I'm even willing to offer up new updates as long as I got a working CM tree to base it off.

Sure - the device files can be found at https://github.com/jdeluyck/android_device_htc_saga
Do I have to send them to anyone specific?

Thank you very much If you could, i would like you to PM Dees_Troy and tell him that you have succesfully compiled 2.7 for saga, so if he has some more technical questions you can answer them I'm updating TWRP for saga thread right away
