Hi nexus 10 owners, welcome to SaberMod!

Sparksco built this ROM from AOSP source and added 40+ Linaro patches to the source for strict-aliasing compiler optimizations. Roms include Linaro string handling routines for memory optimizations. No android kitchens were used to make this rom at all, everything is source build
All ROMs and kernels are built with SaberMod toolchains. The ROMs are built with GCC 4.9 toolchains.
Instructions:
First time flashing this ROM on your Nexus 4, or coming from another ROM?
Root the device and install ClockworkMod or TWRP Recovery.
Place all zips on internal storage
Boot into recovery
Perform a NANDroid backup of your current ROM.
Perform a data factory reset/wipe (Do not format data in twrp recovery!)
Flash ROM.
Flash Gapps package (optional)

Flashing a newer version?
Perform a NANDroid backup of your current ROM.
Wipe cache and dalvik-cache in recovery
Flash ROM
Flash Gapps package (optional)

A few notes on battery/charging
After flashing ROM and/or kernel you may get some battery drain. Give the device time to settle into the ROM/kernel, and after a full charge or two you should notice improved battery life.

FAQ

SaberMod is a AOSP based ROM with some extra features added in and mostly from CyanogenMod. SaberMod started out pure AOSP when android 4.2.1 launched. Originally it was pure AOSP with a few extra features I ported over from CyanogeMod and linaro optimizations. Then I rebased everything off of rasbeanjelly because I liked many features found in rasbean. Since then I've modified a lot of the code so not much of it is rasbeanjelly based anymore. But you will still find some commonly used features found in rasbeanjelly. SaberMod is not a rasbeanjelly or CM clone, or KANG. Custom kernels are included for certain devices when available. These are personal builds we make for ourselves and originally became very popular in the nexus 7 forums. Features are very rarely added, and are built to SaberMod's team members liking. Currently there are two members of SaberMod working on this project. @sparksco and @jarjar124 . Please understand our time is limited and we are only two people who have lives, and do not have 25-50 members like CyanogenMod to add things. And our goal is not to add a bunch of features that bloat the system of the ROM.

Q "Does this ROM have such and such feature?
A "Did you read the first post? Most if not all features are listed in the OP. If you find a feature not listed, tell us and we will add it. Yes, sometimes we miss things."

Q "Very nice ROM, but... Can you add such and such feature?"
A "Depends on a few things, if we think it is a feature we want in the ROM and how easy it is to implement into SaberMod. If you get ignored it's because we're undecided, nothing personal."

Q "I keep asking over and over again if such and such feature can be added but my questions keep getting ignored, why?"
A "Probably because your asking a question that's already been answered, and a simple thread search can answer for you. Either that or we are undecided about it."

Q "I reported a bug but my post gets ignored, why?"
A "Either it's not a bug or you provided no information such as a logcat that has the correct information in it needed to find a possible fix or solution."

Q "I have some problems but I'm using another kernel. Can you fix?"
A "If you think it's a ROM issue state so. If your not sure post a logcat. Don't post last_kmsg for other kernels, cause we can't help"

Q "I think I'm having a problem with the kernel, and I need a fix ASAP!"
A "adb pull /proc/last_kmsg or it never happened and your post will be ignored."

Q "Can I build SaberMod from source code on Linux?"
A "Yes, it is encouraged, machine setup instructions are as follows. SaberMod builds with the latest version of Ubuntu 13.04 and java 7 or java 6 (either one)
Set up your build envirnoment: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=35338419&postcount=1
Skip the part that installs java 6 if you want to install java 7 instead.
If you want to install java 7 go here: http://openjdk.java.net/install/
Code: 
sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre openjdk-7-jdk
Downloading the source
Code: 
mkdir -p ~/android/SaberMod && cd ~/android/SaberMod;
repo init -u https://github.com/SaberMod/android.git -b sm-jb-mr1
repo sync
bash sm-manta
Follow the script instructions for building and make your selections on how you want to build your ROM.

Q "What if I have trouble building or I'm confused on the instructions, can I post questions in this thread for help?"
A "Yes it's encouraged and discussing it might help others."

Q "There's some things in the ROMs that are not in my language, can you please translate?"
A "We can not translate currently, but if you want to help translate parts of the ROM that are only in English contact us and we will try."[/QUOTE]

Ditto. :good:

The only reason I can't use it as a daily driver is because Adobe Flash Player fails to load flash content on Hulu Free from the website. Its not the only ROM that I have that problem; EOS, another ROM I love has the same problem. Hulu flash content works on rasbean, carbon, sentinel and others though.

But all in all, very solid ROM here.

    I was going to put up a new kernel today that should be a little more battery friendly but I'll let @jarjar124 test the source first though cause I added user voltage control. Not sure how well it works yet.
