What is King Kang?
King Kang is essentially a hybrid ROM - its a mixture of AOKP, CyanogenMod, and ParanoidAndroid, bringing all their customizations to one rock solid and quick ROM. These numerous features combine to create a blend of features not seen anywhere else before. Make the user interface yours with this ROM. Change the DPI the ROM runs at, tweak the interface to your hearts content, while enjoying great battery life and stability. Never before have these features combined to create a ROM as feature-packed as King Kang. Credits for the features goes directly to the teams responsible - AOKP and CM for their respective work, and ParanoidAndroid for their wonderful DPI on-the-fly modifications. Without these teams, this ROM would not be possible.

What is the future going to be like for King Kang?
Currently, it is heavily rooted in AOKP as its main base. As the ROM progresses, it will grow and extend its functionality. Want to see a feature from a different ROM that isn't here, or have an idea for a new feature that isn't currently in any other ROM out there? Fill out the feature request form located here so that we can bring it to you! http://kan.gd/1t88

Download
ROM: http://code.google.com/p/kingkang/downloads/list
Google Apps: http://goo.im/gapps
Latest one for Jellybean (CM10) should work perfectly

Information
Some AOKP features power over the ParanoidAndroid ones. For example, in order to get Tablet UI, you first need to check the "Tablet UI" option in ROM Control, then change it to the desired mode in Paranoid Android, and then reboot.

This ROM began as a creation by DAGr8 for Android 4.0, ICS. It offered a simple AOKP + PA combination.

The ROM is currently being built 100% from source. The "team", a.k.a. people maintaining and adding features from other ROMs is currently myself and DAGr8. Without the other teams though, this ROM would be nothing.

No problem! While we're waiting: Does this include the stock kernel? Have you tested it with your build 3?
Thanks again!

EDIT: Your paypal button is broken :)

This looks awesome, I will be using this, I love all of AOKPs features and now with PA's per-app DPI built in also and some great stuff from CM. I just wish I could use your kernel, will there be an update to that soon? I am on of the people that is experiencing constant reboots after flashing Build 3 of your kernel Build 2 worked though. Build 2 is very out dated though.

It includes the stock kernel, and I have not yet tested it with my kernel (though I think it is safe to assume it should work fine)

CWM has been known to randomly wipe our devices /sdcard partition. If you haven't had any issues with it though and you want to keep using it, thats fine. Just be aware that it may happen.

Should be one soon, as soon as I fix that bug for some of you. I may have to revert to stock voltage values since I believe that the undervolting is the cause behind it.

    Milestone 1: http://code.google.com/p/kingkang/downloads/detail?name=kingkang_evita_jb_milestone1.zip

    Too much has changed to list it all.
    Poke around in the ROM to figure out what changed :)

    A FULL WIPE/Factory Reset is HIGHLY recommended.

    Tons of new AOKP features, bugfixes, CM updates, and more CM small features.

    Sadly Per App Color did not make it into this build. Its coming soon, however.

    Enjoy
    This will probably be the last build on 4.1 btw... 4.2 merge is in process.

    New build coming soon, guys ;) I hope to bring hw key config, CM profiles, CM's new filemanager, DSP Manager, and a bunch of other things, along with a cleaned up user experience

    Hey guys,

    I've been gone for the past few days because as expected, I lost power due to the storm. It did some pretty major damage to my house, but luckily no one was injured. About half our roof is gone, along with 3 trees and a window is shattered. Besides that though, everything is good.

    Currently I don't have power. and I probably wont until early next week. The state of my town is insane right now; in a road near me, every 100 meters or so there is a live wire down with a huge 50ft tree on top of it. This won't be cleaned up for a long time. I haven't had school for the past week either, and I probably won't next week either, since pretty much 90% of my town doesn't have power still.

    I'm currently at my Mom's work, since they have electricity and power, along with internet. I'll be here for the next few days during the daytime I guess, so feel free to PM me. I can't get any major programming work done for this ROM though since all my files were on my local computer which currently doesnt have power.

    Hope anyone else who was affected by this terrible storm is okay- just remember none of the material stuff matters; keep your family safe.
