  • TWRP recovery
  • Superuser embedded in Settings
  • Clear all button
  • Torch app and quicksettings toggle
  • Reboot option
Release 2
  • AOSP 4.4.4
  • init.d support
Release 3
more to come in the future
Feel free to add suggestions in the Feature request tab at the top of this thread.

Download
Release1
Release2
Release3
Alternative: AOSP without customisations (only TWRP and Superuser)
AOSP


Installation instructions
Copy the zip file to sdcard and flash it in recovery. If you get an error doing so, make sure to unmount the system partition in recovery first.

I recommend the use of TKruzzes gapps from here. I use them and they work perfectly.

Did you do a clean flash?

If so:
For me display doesn´t flicker... Can you check the kernel version:
it should be 3.4.0+AOSPXS-Alpha2, which is an almost unmodified version from bilchhen.
I run exactly this kernel for a few months now and never had problems with it.
But if the flicker appears again you could also try if a logcat gives you any information about it.

About the bluetooth FC I can you give me a logcat?

Thanks a lot, great work.
Just a little thing, the exosed module doesn't works properly with QuickSetting (of gravitybox), I think is related your mod of quicksetting.

Regards
and keep High this work

Yes that is possible, does gravitybox work on cyanogenmod? cause that is where the quicksettings patches came from.
What tiles are you missing?

Awesome work..!!
Everything was great except the lag while pulling down the status bar...
Strange doesn´t lag for me:

Yee gravitybox works wery well on this rom. All works fine and each kind of customization is possible, but when try to customize the quicksetting, after the choise of tiles, it isn't showen in the status bar.

Oh...I mean there is a slight lag...
It was there in CM11 too..
But it got fixed after i applied the z2 theme...http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/themes-apps/theme-sony-xperia-z2-t2724864
But there's no theme engine in aosp..

Can that "Slight lag" be fixed?
I will have to search for what is causing it; either system or kernel...

Can you tell me which tiles you wanted to add? Maybe I can add them also, so they are aviable without xposed.
