[Download]
If you already have evervolv installed you should see this build under testing if you refresh and can download that way.

ev_shooter-testing-2014.04.24.zip

Netflix 3.2.1 -- Don't upgrade Netflix to the latest if you did download here and downgrade and uncheck auto update in the Play Store this is temp until I figure out what changed again.

NOTE: Recommend a clean install if moving from a previous version and or another ROM.

Flashing from cm or any other ROM will require a clean install, dirty flashes can cause random reboots and random errors

What happened to drew?

Anyways
After a clean flash + core gapps
Obviously camera doesn't work as its not there
Data works and sms works but MMS will not for me on virgin...changed apns and also tried with textra....still no go

Overall the ROM seems very laggy

Slow to respond to anything especially when typing


Thanks for trying to update evervolv!
It used to be a favorite:beer:

Wow i cant believe more people aren't excited about a 3.4 kernel. I was wondering if this will get us closer to a working sense 4+ ROM even though this is asop based?

I've been running this since it was posted the only problems i have is when the battery is low and u plug in the led takes like 5+sec to stop flashing even though the batt icon changes immediately. Also when it boots up it looks like it gets stuck on the splash screen for a bit then the boot animation starts.

Still very early in the build. Thanks for the info

New build seems much smoother
MMS worked for me after switching apns ... I'm on virgin

If it had a camera I would play a little more...I need it often for work

I also encountered some issues downloading apps
I went to play store and click download xda, then as it starts went to download Facebook and then the phone freezes and reboots and then has media something force closing...reboot fixed then when I try to download again same thing freeze and reboot....did this 3x with same result....i will see if I can get a log for you later today

Does 4G/wimax work on this rom?

---------- Post added at 09:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:21 PM ----------

Decided to try this rom and it did something that always worries me because I never know what to do. It tries to "activate mobile data service". Should I skip this step or do I have to let it try till it works? Most roms don't have this step. What should I do?

Thanks for the work! It's nice to see a non-cm ROM that's not based on stock.

I couldn't get full boot on hboot 1.50.5050, it would run the animation but never built the /data directory up (I let it sit all night and checking the /data partition in TWRP afterwards showed it was entirely empty.)
Wiped /system, /data, and /cache. Tried installing it both with and without gapps.
hboot 1.04_eng seems to be booting it up better. adb lets me in and /data subdirectories are constructed. but then /data is mounted ro and won't construct the dalek-cache. can't even force it to remount /data rw in adb shell.
Tried on both hboots with the 4ext and TWRP recoveries which install the cm11s ok. Am I missing something obvious?
//edit: dmesg excerpts
<4>[ 68.335052] EXT4-fs warning (device mmcblk0p24): ext4_clear_journal_err:4232: Filesystem error recorded from previous mount: IO failure
<4>[ 68.335235] EXT4-fs warning (device mmcblk0p24): ext4_clear_journal_err:4233: Marking fs in need of filesystem check.

logcat specifies can't write to dalek-cache and processes die/respawn.
//re-edit: cat /dev/zero > /dev/block/mmcblk0p24 in adb, then formatting /data in 4ext, fixed it. must have been my glitch, sorry.
