Offtop:
1.Go to Settings->About Phone. Tap fast few times on "Android version". "K" will come.
2.Tap fast few times more to see "red android logo".
3. Make a swipe around logo oval. Some nice easter egg will come (android "sweet" logos) .

If You gonna play longer time by taping on logos and If You are lucky then maybe "Lemon Cake" logo will show up.

New Android L -> Lemon Cake.

Wasn't it the Key Lime Pie used for 4.4 before it was officially named into KitKat?
Also, you had made some "butter" optimizations in the last build, is it noticeably smoother than the PA rom?

May be,but also on Android L notification screenshot on google sites the is some teasing about lemon cake. Don't know is it better then PA, didn't compared, but it is noticeably smoother from my previous builds (or it is just placebo). Also antutu shows bit more points...

is it possible to build and use systemui and framework res from the L preview and the dialer too?

Yes, I can confirm. This problem I had at first too :/
Even Screenshots and whatsapp downloads does not work on this way ;)
I also think thats why the Browser FC while downloading like @XDAvatar told.

But know I´m running it without storage bugs and I really like this rom :)
Pure Android like on my Nexus 7 :)

But unfortunately, I still found a few small errors. :(
First, the location service with mobile data and wlan (without GPS) does not find me :(
It doesn´t even show me on the Map.
And If I want to make an Hangout Video Call, I can´t see the opponent. There are only green and black bars.

If you could fix this it would be a really amazing rom!

Yes I can confirm it, GPS not work...can not determine location...

- next build will be also with Huawei camera /no probles with settings page/
- also my status bar fix will be included by default.
- maybe some more will come.

New update. Links in OP:

Highlights:
- StatusBar fix (with notification counter) included
- GPS tuning => turbo fast fix (supl20Service.apk link in OP - may fix A-GPS but increases real GPS fix times to ~ 1min)
- Some small WiFi fixes
- Custom signal fix works in 2G/3G now.
- reverted to Huawei camera one more time /don't ask why...for sure is not pictures storage option ;)/

Going on vacations soon. So as for now this is the last update. Have fun, and good luck.

Hello, You didn't read OP instructions,must be on B507 before installation, not B510 like newest Omni or PA. Restore original Huawei B507 firmware first. Later install this ROM. Good luck.

Are the effect and all other options in this camera like on stock emotion ui ??

Hi, unfortunately it is very hard to bring all huawei camera features because of some missing dependencies in huaweis framework/power services.
There is some dirty hack to restore part of features but it makes hwcamera unstable...

Hello to everyone, new update is up /link in OP/:

Back from holidays, fresh mind full of new ideas :)

Highlights:
- Cracked HwCamera finally! /face beautify not working yet, but it is just some missing libs/
Working: [Panorama, HDR video, HDR pictures, Burst mode, Video stabilization, ISO adjusting and much more]
- Moved to B511 blobs and kernel
- Included supplementary services, responsible for A-GPS.
- Some "butter" restored, after I broken it in previous build ;)
- small auto brightness values adjust

And remember: update is always possible, but wiping cache and dalvik-cache is required.
On fresh install please, wipe, reboot to recovery, install.

    Android Open Source Project 4.4.4 KitKat for Ascend P6
    Stable version

    03.png


    Just minor bugs:

    - some Wi-Fi Direct problems
    - turning off airplane mode dont restore mobile automaticly. search for network...
    - ...


    FAQ:

    - No file manager, no flashlight !? Go to Play Store and choose what You like :)
    - There is no advanced power saving here, but I'm sure that battery life is still better than on stock.
    - Remember also to restart phone after Gapps installation, after first start Google Play Services eating a lot of battery.


    Info and credits:

    This is vanilla build of Android 4.4.4 Kitkat:
    - no bloatware
    - no fancy settings
    - no custom switches, themes, graphics etc.
    - just clean, simple, stock build
    Thanks to:
    Surdu_perdu - kholk - worstenbrood - tauio111 - PulseDroid
    and many others members of brilliant XDA forums :)

    Hello, to everyone. Some good news:

    - signal bar is working now, after around 30 hours of porting/testing some telephony framework stuff from OmniROM.
    after this signal bar fix, inherited screen on delay on reciving calls, will be fixed.
    - changed music app from "Music" to Apollo whitch is much more usable and it's default app on all ROM's
    - added STK (SimToolKit)
    - have some nice idea how to solve missing dolby service problem, without dolby...maybe in next update ;)
    - changing state of rom to Beta now, it is pretty stable now.

    Check OP for download link, and have fun.

    Update 19.05:

    - just fixed nasty StatusBar behavior /small jump when switching full screen activities/.
    It is also visible on screenshots, a small margin above status bar...good bay :)
    Will be included in next update.

    @tksla i know you are on AOSP but wouldt it be easier if you build CM12?
    CM12 is in early stage and there is no point to try it now as not many functions are implemented yeat. And AOSP is official release so no more modifications that may broke my build in future. BTW I'm making little steps forward with my build. If I find enough time this weekend first build may be ready for tests. Keep finders crossed.
