On the right track here! Breaking things up this way will save a load of headaches. Which cm-11 are you using?

I had not tried making dsp and whisper user apps. Dsp is small enough and I know nothing about using whisper service.
Another candidate would be the filemanager.

Calendar is on Play and should be installed from there. Hangouts2 should also come off Play.
The original sms app is on the ROM unless you removed it. Not everyone want to bother with Hangouts.

Upgrades to Google Search will need to be downloaded from Play and sideloaded because it is technically not compatible for our device.

I (at least used to) need a gmscore on system, even though it is upgraded by the prebuilt and onwards. Just like phonesky needs be on system while Play has given me new ones since then. Waste of space. I will try removing the prebuilt from system and see if it still works.

Main functionality bug is lack of lockscreen widgets option in Settings.apk. Ideas on this?

it is CM-11 Dec 27 build... Have trimmed rom but not removed LatinIME, FM etc. About whisperpush read this http://www.cyanogenmod.org/blog/whisperpush-secure-messaging-integration, Google search and card working through this mode of installation. :highfive:

Working on lockscreen widget only camera is working here for now. GmsCore working here.

You sure about Wifi and Usb?
Last time I checked Hephappy version and it was not working.
and Will this Rom work without SDEXT4?

Yes, wifi and usb working, you can use it without SDEXT4 too but you might not be able to taste kitkat fully.

miki.cis · Dec 29, 2013 at 1:37 PM

Wow! You're great, i'm going to try it after the New year, when i get to my desktop PC.
Do you think it'll work with mount2sd?
I'm not asking about INT2EXT4, because it wasn't working even with 4.2.x Android.

Keep up!:highfive:

xander21 · Dec 29, 2013 at 1:42 PM

Rom lags, can not use it. How did you use it, if everything starts with a long delay mukulsoni ?

uf0999 · Dec 29, 2013 at 1:49 PM

Is link2SD mandatory, or we can use also other a2sd scripts?

I'm used to "inflate" int2extv2+ directly in the rom.

The AOSP keyboard is fc on me after first boot. How should I fix that?

borchaniz · Dec 29, 2013 at 2:52 PM

The rom is good except for some bugs:
1- You should replace LatinIme with the one from jenkins build or ther will be no keyboard showing and no hardware keys except home
2- launcher says PLACEHOLDERTEXT : can't find google search..... and if I install an older launcher it will run but no cards

jaibar · Dec 29, 2013 at 3:18 PM

After initial reboot (all wipes + formats + successful installation of cm11) I noticed the "back" hardware key is not working.

It is capable of killing an app if I enable it in developer options, though, but as a regular in-app back function it doesn't seem to work. Any ideas how to make the back button wrok again?

Another thing, I just noticed that cmfilemanager is not capable of opening zip files and did not think about decompressing the archives (useer and system gapps) beforehand :silly:

No need to apologize- it is well understood that at this stage it is a privilege to be able to boot in KK to begin with, and as with any new Android version, the first/early adopters usually are prepared for not working stuff.

Probably in a couple of weeks many bugs are fixed and KK ROMs start mushrooming all over the place
