[ROM][4.4.4][BETA 1] ACERom [HALO][HOVER][HEADSUP][PEEK]

[rharshit]

ACE ROM is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 4.4 (KitKat), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device. It has been based over the famous rom Cr-Droid. This ROM will later on have its own UI, and stuff. For now, it is in a very initial stage.

Okay. First congrats for the new rom @rhar****
Gave a try this rom.
IMHO, this rom is a CM-11 derivative. No wonder, almost cm-11 features included in this rom, except Halo and Hover. Dalvik2cache works as it should be. Gapps and Google Play Services were installed and login to G server got no problem.
Known issues as in cm-11 remain, such as portable wifi hotspot and FM Radio.
In order to have enough space in /system, some apps were deleted and converted as user apps.

Suggestions:
1. Better develop roms based on CM and OMNI only. You may focus just on cm and omni, rather than various rom you developed as I noticed, PA, OMNI, Pixel and Acer. Waste your time, energy and resources. Sorry, bro
2. Halo and Hover features may be included in Jenkins' CM-11 , no need to built or develop new rom as ACER.

BTW, thanks for the rom. and gave me the opportunity to try it out.

Agree with you. But it's just a simple port I made within hours. I myself prefer omni and aosp. Was trying hard to port aosp, but no luck. Even tried to port MiUi, but again, a bootloop.
And the things go even worse when your USB isn't working. Form now I'll concentrate on omega to final it up and other ROMs in free time
Thanks for your suggestion

I have installed this rom because is only 4.4.4 rom (no os2sd) without gapps (the "remove gapps" flasable script doesn't work for me, tested with all recoveries). but gps doesn't work... sensor not present... reinstalled many time... any help? thank you

edit: found here a cm 11 pure rom (without gapps), "cm-11-20151209-UNOFFICIAL-p500.zip" (is a pure cyanogen mod), works fine. thank you
