                   AOSP Rom                                        \                                                                                       /

There's anything missing?
- Only the downloadable gapps from playstore are removed. PlayStore, bootanimation, Photosphere etc are already included. NO NEED TO FLASH ANY GAPPS PACKAGE.
Rom is also already rooted.

Is this ROM heavily themed?
- No, this rom is 100% stock themed.

How should i install this ROM?
- Do a Wipe/Factory reset and then flash. Use either CWM or TWRP (Strongly suggested to update to latest recovery). Should be safe to dirty flash new releases over the old ones.

I'm on JB 4.1 (or 4.2), can i flash this rom directly?
- Coming from 4.1 (or 4.2) for this rom or every other 4.3+ roms i suggest you to flash the 4.3+ google factory image first. Remember to backup your internal storage (music, pics etc.) because it will get erased. Remember also to update your radio and bootloader. Strongly suggested to update to latest recovery either CWM or TWRP.

Why there are multiple packages on home and how should i flash them?
- Flash ROM ---> Flash Nightly Update package (if you want to have the 0day release) ---> Reboot.
- If you already have the Rom installed (latest full release), just flash the Nightly Cumulative Update (no wipe needed).
- Remember that latest cumulative update contains every single update from latest full release till that day.

I don't have root!
- Rom is already rooted, if you're not you probably missed this warning: (from Chainfire) If you're using a recovery that asks you if it should disable flashing the stock recovery, answer no.. In this case just reflash latest SuperSU.

How can i configure the included kernel?
- Use Trickster MOD app: XDA Thread - Google Play link.
Alternatively you can script them, you can refer to this Francisco Franco post for the correct paths.

My Nexus became laggy and sluggish after a while.
- There's an hardware issue on some flash memory chips. If your eMMC model is V3U00M 08/2012 or 09/2012 i suggest to leave always at least 2-3 GB free on it. No need anymore to trim it yourself as it's included in android 4.3. You can use this to check you eMMC model.

Sim Toolkit (stk) isn't installed and/or isn't working correctly, any fix?
- It's not a bug, new Stk will only appear/work correctly if you have the security pin enabled on your sim card. Reenable pin lock and reboot.

Wi-Fi Tethering isn't working!
- In Android 4.2+ tethered traffic is flagged so if your plan doesn't allow it, wifi tethering will likely won't work.
You can use some third party apps like Wifi Tether.

Did you change the incoming call images?
- I've only made the "answer with SMS" consistent with other icons instead of that white and wrong dimensioned icon.

I found a bug, how can i report/help you?
- From my experience and the way i make this rom the bugs you can find can be only related to the features i've added and only to them. So it's very UNLIKELY that reboots, issues with signals, wifi, apps, syncs, gps and everything not Cataclysm feature related are rom issue. If you still think the issue is rom related try to reproduce it or at least check if a reboot solves your issue. (If fx K9mail is stuck at checking mails for whatever reason and drains you battery don't rush reporting it as the rom is draining the juice). A logcat is very appreciated. If you dirty flashed please try a clean flash before reporting anything. Hunting a non existent bug takes away lot of development time.

My mobile signal/radio isn't working anymore!
- There was a bug (now fixed) with TWRP that removed your baseband flashing roms. Update to latest recovery and reflash latest radio via fastboot.

I've flashed some inverted apps and now i got many FC's!
- You're safe to use any inverted Gapps, but replacing system apps, like contacts or phone will break everything.
Atm i provide the inverted mms one, more will follow.

Despite using the AOSP keyboard, customization isn't working.
- Keyboard customization works only on QWERTY layouts, you can switch them inside advanced settings.

Can't download additional dictionaries on AOSP keyboard?
- I've disabled that options as they're not available for AOSP keyboards, i've included many of them already inside. If you still lack one of them you can download the google keyboard from playstore but you'll loose keyboard customization.

May i suggest/request something?
- Suggestions are welcome, but can't promise anything.

I want PIE!
- Here is the alternative PIE.

I want HALO!
- Here is the alternative HALO.

I want RIBBON!
- Here is the alternative RIBBON.

Why the option to longpress home to open app drawer is grayed out?
- Unfortunately this feature depends on launchers, so actually is compatible only with Nova, Holo, Holo HD and Aphex launcher. More will follow.

Why wifi is always enabled on battery stats even if i turn it off?
- Google by default use wifi for some location services even when it's "off". Go to Wifi --> Advanced Settings --> Wifi scan always available to disable it.

Wifi sometimes have problems auto reconnecting to routers when i'm in range and i need to power it off and on to fix it.
- This is a known 4.3 issue currently being investigated by Google.

Pls buddy I want ur mods from the catacalysm, can I have ur codes of some of ur mods that u put in the catacalysm ROM?
- Unfortunately Cataclysm sources aren't publicly available.

My browser keeps asking me to log into google account.
- This is a known 4.3 issue, log your browser onto google account and then set that page as homepage.

My wifi goes to sleep even if i set it to never.
- This is a known android issue, some suggest to change your wifi sleep policy to something else and reboot, then set it back to never.

My GPS isn't working.
- This is a known 4.3 (JWR66Y) issue currently being investigated by Google. Keep in mind that after flashing a new rom first fix takes awhile. Many people fixed their issues with a clean install. Others fixed it by unchecking "Wifi&Mobile Network Location".

Why didn't you answer to my post/pm?
- I try doing my best, but i don't have much time and can miss something.
