This ROM is based off AOSP

As it is AOSP it has next to no extra features but it is very smooth. In this ROM everything should work. HDMI, Radio, and no pause when recording.

AOSP! \o/
Been keeping an eye on this on github, absolutely great work. This will surely become my primary ROM. If I encounter any issues I'll provide logs.

@deedwar is this a stable version? If radio is iffy how can we use this? Just to be clear when you say radio, radio is the fm radio or the radio antenna for service signal?

The new version brings an error while installing. "some symlinks failed" "error installind updater script".
I've downloaded the rom 3 times from different servers and the error is present all the time.
What's the problem?

Wipes are all done by me, also flashing the kernel with ADB extra.
I'm coming from mokee rom.

I just installed the system image to check on mine i didnt do a complete install of the ROM itself so that would explain why i didnt see the same issues. I will do a clean build and repost it tomorrow when i wake up. Sorry for that.

In the meantime i relinked the older version with the bluetooth problem and people can install that and just install the new version over the top when i release it tomorrow.

By radio i mean FM RADIO not mobile signal.

Just updated, installed and worked for me over the top of the old version at the very least but i dont see why it shouldnt just work.
Thanks for the updated kernel!

I got one issue tough, the most recent update brakes compatibility with the Gravity box module (Xposed framework).
In my humble opinion, in AOSP the UI should stay unaltered/vanilla, it's what makes this ROM unique.
All customization can be done by the user with Xposed framework and the Gravity box module for AOSP.
For example:
Clear all in recent apps
RAM bar in recent apps
Reboot options
Tiles customization
Torch options
and further on...

Other pros:
Customizing is an option rather than hardcoded in the framework and forced upon the user.
Saves you time as a dev.
and further on...

:)

There is another branch that is there that i will compile from time to time that will be vanilla. However there are a few things i cant live without and while i do install the xposed framework i dont want to have to install a whole heap of mods just to do a few basic things.

I see, will take a look on github and see if I can compile the vanilla branch.
