I know this may sound strange.
I'm a happy user of this ROM, however, each time I attempt to flash this --> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2570973 (a camera App from Android 4.1.2) the phone gets stuck at the Kernel screen. What perplexes me is that a camera app could stop a phone from booting up, but then I'm just a noob to Android development.

Any suggestions?

It probably supports stock.

I was just wondering if it would be possible to list what is removed/slimmed down or even added (as i see xperia keyboard is added) from the official cm/Ragman's build?
I understand no customization options were removed but I was wondering about the system changes or apps. :)

Thank you btw ROM looks good!

I'll explain my request! in the settings, options for selection of developer runtime, you can choose (DALVIK or ART), someone tested? I would like to talk about the differences between these two modes! Thanks;)

Hello,
I tried Dalvik and Art, and I didn't feel any difference between these two runtime... Anyway, this rom is the fastest one I've ever seen on my XS!
I just have a little problem with the camera app: it takes some seconds to start, which is a bit slow, and it freeze some second when I start to record a video.
I also experienced a big lag of the phone after a call, but it happened only one time.

Concerning ART and DALVIK, i've noticed considerable performing boost in launching apps and overall multitasking with ART over DALVIK, with the occasional force close but that is something I can live with.

    Great to know that it's not Comic Sans. That put me off massively, Haha. Will try this soon. Same bugs as that of Rayman's Beta 3, I suppose ,right?
    The Rom is compile from Rayman's source ? :confused:

    Yes. It is based on Rayman's sources :)

    HDMI not working, right?

    Love how the KK roms for XS are appearing, thanks to the Devs for keeping our beloved device alive, lol :good:

    We have not tried, but we think HDMI does not work since it is a bug on all KitKat ROMs ;)

    ------------------

    And, big thanks to everyone giving positive feedbacks, we are always working hard to make better ROMs. Stay tuned for next versions :)
