Well, this rom is good, I like it but somehow I'm tired of the number of times it reboots. Reboots usually happen when i try to multi task. Can't use it as a daily driver. Also performance controls don't stick on reboot. I want this rom to improve and will come back once these things are taken care of. Till then I'll switch back to cm11 which I had been using since it was made available.

Try making sure it gets mounted as rw for the /system ...
as i mentioned above,,, it will make a difference! I was feeling the same way too.
Going into performance control may be resetting that permission i just went to check it and noticed the ROM being weird again. Sure enough it was mounted ro...

Also try using devil tools to get the performance controls settings to stick. That works for me.

Tried the 12-13 gapps but failed to install.

Thanks again for all your efforts. I am seeing a lot of promise here. Guess I was a little quick to jump the gun in installing but I will try to stick with it.

Did you try with a dalvik and cache wipe? It may take wiping data also... Clean install?

thanks for the reupload. Zip file was good but now had issues writing to system directory.

I am going to put this on hold until things get a little more stable. I really liked what I saw though. for me, the only issue after installing the latest Gapps from 12-30 was that I couldn;t sign into Google playstore. other than that, everything was pretty fast.

keep up the good work!

.. but now had issues writing to system directory.
I think that problem may be more related to the included superuser.

More so than what i previously said about mounting the system as rw...:eek:

Mazda made mention of it @ G+.
So i installed superSU v 1.86 from chainfire and it's working much moar better for me :D

    Dirty Unicorns (DU) is a custom ROM originally based off AOKP but now OMNI-ROM, brings you a great mix of stability and customization. The idea to start a ROM like this was purely out of boredom but later turned into a form of an addiction, a good one. We began to have fun while still doing things the right way. By doing so, we received high praise from not only our users but by fellow developers of other ROMs that enjoy seeing things done the right way. This ROM will always be free of charge without any strings attached or any of it's developers luring you into donating or any form of "pay to flash".
