Welcome to CMB Roms- CM done Better... Dark Themed for his/her Pleasure

Why CMB?
We are just better , in a nutshell we set out to give you the best of CM, with none of the annoying features (see list below), all this wrapped in a custom black theme. We used the KISS principal when deciding what to offer, we based our frameworks on CM alone (not FrankenFrameworks like some others out there), enabling us to provide updates and bug fixes as soon as CM does. This doesn't mean we are only relying on them for development, it just eases merging.

Features

• Based on Android 4.4.2_M2, CM11.0
• All current features CM11.0
• Customized Dark Holo Theme With Gray ActionBars
• Dark Mms
• Dark Calendar
• Dark Contacts
• Ramdisk security tweaks, you can adb as root now!
• Bash "tab to complete"
• Remount helper, in adb shell
  
  Old
  

  mount -o rw,remount /system

  New
  

  remount /system

  Better Right??

We plan to add more features, suggestions are welcome (but sometimes ignored )

Tips & Tricks

Tips and Tricks

Note if you are flashing from Stock, or you did a wipe data (good for your for listening haha)
you will NOT have root out of the box, CM has made it an optional thing, to enable root do the following:

1. Enable Developer options, on the About Tablet Screen, tap the Build number 8x
2. Next Go to Developer options
3. Then under Root Access, choose "Apps and ADB"

OTA

You will need { This is only what I did }
You can find the download in the download tab..as usual

• tf700t on the most current cmb release Not Running ART
• Be on Philz CWM based recovery or a 4.4 compatible recovery
• Have all .zip files on external sdcard

1. OTA update zip
2. Any optional zip you would like to flash
3. Gapps zip

Enter recovery Don't Format !!!! Go right to install and install the zips in the above order, wipe dalvik, reboot.
You will get a android is upgrading, After your fully boot into rom, let everything simmer for a few minutes, than do a reboot, like I said just what I did!!!!!!!!!

Awesome news thanks for doing this. One quick question, what if anything does CMB do under hood (not cosmetic/UI stuff) to CM base?

CMB 4.3 ran really well on my tablet, I am running CM 11 and it is a bit slugglish. I am going to try the CMB KitKat here soon but curious if it was a different kernel (the Ramdisk tweaks?) etc. that lead to a better running rom?

CMB/CM Diff

I am working on getting a change log made for just that!! Like most AOSP/CM based roms, the differences are going to be minimal, right off the bat. If you look at the size of the roms there is about a 4 MB size difference, ours being the smaller of the two.. Thx for your question. I will keep you posted on a change log once we get some of these small bugs out the way... Thx as always lj

 

[bluewr]

So, is this compatible with the Pad?

Pad

So, is this compatible with the Pad?

I am sorry, im not sure what you mean by pad??

 

[bluewr]

I am sorry, im not sure what you mean by pad??

I meant the Keyboard Dock, will all the feature on it work(Keyboard, SD card, USB, trackpad?)

 

[undisputedfb]

Any reason why this ROM only utilizes 2 of the 4 cores?
Edit: nm works now. Great rom

[barbarony62]

since this is based on CM, if I want to flash this over "infected" unofficial CM 11 4.4.2 kitkat, can I do a dirty flash, or do i need to wipe the whole thing and factory reset ?
