Just wanted to share that this Android L theme works well. I'm using it for everything but boot animation and icons. Plus it's free.

Yeah, Just wish my computer was faster and I had a vps to compile roms on
http://www.weloveservers.net

If you email the VP, they will cusotmize your options... I had, I think, 80+GB and 4gb ram for around $15-20 /mo. That was about a year ago since I had it so I don't remember exactly. I compiled 4.2/4.3 ROMs in like 15-30 minutes after repo sync was full.

I am interested on this rom and i wonder if someone has test it already.
i am running slimkat which is pretty good but starts lagging with time.

Do you have the same behavior with this one?
Is this one compatible with ART?

I can tell it starts lagging when you dirty flash a dew times. That's why I haven't pushed an update in a while.

Just installed this and initial impression is that it works great. Didn't touch my Kindle Fire for a year and i can see there are a lot of improvements made in this time.

I'll keep you posted on the long term (and gaming) performance (installing heartstone and the cave right now).

(Modern) gaming didn't work, heartstone didn't start en the cave has low fps and crashes after 2 minutes. Maybe a little bit too ambitious.
Battery life is much better then before. Only installed Gapps and one google account sync. After 24h on standby (wifi was enabled) i still got 30% battery.

I'm not sure if this device would benefit from linaro or sabermod cm builds on lollipop
