About Us:
Dirty Unicorns is a project that started out with no name. It was a project that was first created based off AOKP back in the early days of Jelly Bean because of curiosity. In the early days it was just a one man show on one device (EVO 3D). Since then many others have joined the project and it has grown a whole lot. We have seen a lot of talent contribute to this project of ours and many of our contributors have gone to help other projects and that is ultimately why we do what we do.

Once Jelly Bean was over, we decided in Kitkat to move to a new base which was OmniROM. While AOKP was fun, OmniROM proved to be even more exciting because it challenged us to see what we could with something different.

With Lollipop, we have moved to an AOSP base with a lot of patches from CAF to make our older devices function as they should. That said it has been an awesome learning experience and is still not over! We are still learning every day and continue to move forward.

Few more things we will say is that we don't accept nor ask for donations. We don't believe in that. Everything that is necessary to keep this project going is out of our own pocket. Gerrit, Jenkins, Websites, Devices, etc.....

We will never ask for a dime. All we do ask is that you search, read and try to enjoy the process with us!!​

Welcome back guys!.. Excellent Rom, new fav & daily, smooth as silk, only possible thing I miss from the UB Rom I was on previously is Heads up notification, and theme engine which I'm sure you're already working to include in future build

Hello all,

Can I ask, does this have the default aosp Material theme throughout or has it been modified in some way?
Anywhere I could see a list of features added so far if any?

Many thanks. I always feel uncomfortable asking the dev these sorts of questions as I don't want to feel I am pestering.

No there's no modifications made to the theme and NO, there's no feature list.

Best way to find out what's in the ROM is to either flash it or check out our source/gerrit

I just wanna say thanks SO much for supporting the CDMA devices too. I was a big fan of KK DU on m7spr. I often wish I was on GSM to benefit from better development but you guys think of us too and I'd probably use DU no matter what device/carrier I'm on. You guys have the best ROM and I'm pumped to try out this and future builds. I'll make a note of any issues, but thanks again!!

Update: Everything works - definitely usable as a daily driver. Issues i've seen so far (m7spr):
- maybe like 1000 different APNs listed, though it is choosing the proper one so doesn't matter much.
- screen-off animation is a bit glitchy

Flashed and very impressive. Way more features that I expected, you have done a great job. Been running it a few hours, no hiccups and runs very smooth.

Thank you for providing this.
