Sure, but do a wipe if you encounter any issues/bugs.

Okay, so I've flashed it and straight away I noticed two things.

1. I ran Antutu just to check if the performance has increased since 4.4.2. It has not. I ran it twice and I got around 19000 points. That's a staggering 16000(!) points less than the stock ROM. What's going on? It's almost as low as the Galaxy S3!

2. The DPI is wrong. It's set at 360 DPI which isn't an official supported DPI and it may cause issues for people and apps (Tapatalk is having issues at 360 for example). Either set the DPI to 320 or 400 and let people decide if they want to change it.

Thanks for this great ROM!

It runs very well, I use 240 DPI (my standard setting) and everything looks great. Smooth and stable.

It really made my day!

Thanks, nice rom. I just flashed it + 320DPI patch straight over the top of the 4.4.2 GPE rom without wiping and encountered no issues. Didn't touch the baseband either, which must still be at 4.3 level presumably as I have never flashed the Xperia 4.4 roms. :good:

Can you back up that claim? I got 28507 on a GPe device running 4.4.3 stock ROM.
Sorry, that was misleading. I meant that it should score around the same not possibly higher than 19474 and the stock ROM score. I've not run a test on the GPE so can't confirm, I assumed based in the fact that the GPE it typically bloat free and the most "refined" version of Android.

Benchmarks

GPE ROMs always scored lower in Antutu, but at least in 4.4.2 it felt smoother / as smooth as Sony's stock ROM (didn't test 4.4.3 though). Don't know what's the reason for that. It would be good to make the following comparisons:

  • Antutu score with the "true" GPE device
  • Antutu score with DooMKernel

If using DooMKernel the score drastically changes, it's a kernel-related thing. On the other hand, if the "true" GPE device (C6806_GPE) scores the same as with the ported ROM, then it's the way things are suppose to be.

My last phone was an Optimus G which scored way higher using Antutu than the Nexus 4 which had the same hardware. LG firmware also outscored custom Roms.

    I havresults:
    ea why it is like this. It should in theory blow everything else out of the water, but it's not even close. I guess the Sony ROM is much better optimized than the clean version, but it can't have such a huge effect can it? There's nothing wrong with the GPe's performance, so i'm not sure what to take from this. Doesn't the GPe fire on all cylinders, or what?
    I ran Antutu on Sony Stock ROM, GPE 4.4.3 with stock Kernel, GPE 4.4.3 with DooMLoRD kernel. Got the following results:

    1. Sony .757 (31036)
    2. 4.4.3 stock (26544)
    3. 4.4.3 w/ DooMLoRD kernel (25128)

    Performance is definitely better on GPE, feels a lot smoother than stock so I guess the Benchmarks don't really do it justice!

    If anyone's interested, Kamome Tool works really well to deodex your system. There's an option to zipalign the resulting APK files, but I decided to not try it since it's marked as experimental right now.
