FAQ
Q: I saw you posted a screen shot of the AOSP lock screen, how can I get that as well?
A: Use something like Root Explorer from the Playstore, and navigate to system/priv-app and re-name HtcLockScreen.apk to HtcLockScreen.apk.bak - then reboot. To remove rename back to .apk

Q: Will you do so and so MOD for this ROM? Will you add this or that?
A: I don't know. Feel free to ask and I will give you an honest answer. As I do aim to please the users, I can't please everybody.

Q: Does this ROM update my firmware, or radio/baseband? What about PRL?
A: No. No. And No. This, much like most ROMs (can't speak for everyone..) does NOT update your firmware, your radio/baseband, PRL, Hboot, or any of that. This is simply the ROM, nothing more. You need to flash hboot, firmware, recovery, radio, etc outside of this ROM and thread. Please do not use this thread as a how-to for these things.

Q: What is the Odex Test ROM? Ex. Bonestock_v1.3-OT.zip - Depreciated! Do NOT use - Android 4.4.3
A: Sense 6 started packaging their applications differently. Before, you had the classes.dex held within the .odex file, hence when you deodex you combine these two into one .apk, removing the .odex files. With Sense 6, although there is an .odex file, their is also the classes.dex held within the .apk. What does this mean?
There is talk of just physically deleting the .odex file will simply result in a deodexed ROM rather than using say, the Android Kitchen as has been done since.. I've been making ROMs and far far longer.
Why did HTC do this you ask? Possibly for ART, I am not sure.
So the Odex Test is just that, I simply deleted the .odex files rather than the tradition deodex route. If you want to use the tradition deodex method you can use the provided ROM.
Only the ROM with the label "-OT.zip" will be done this way.
I am offering both ways to see if any ROM has better results.
Please feel free to try both methods as OT is what I personally use and haven't seen any issues, so I consider it stable.
@scrosler filled me in on how and why it ART works the way it does, and was correct, the OT-test IS the correct method for deodexing Sense 6.0. This is how you can be on a Deodexed ROM and run ART. I edit all my applications by hand hard coding the MODs/tweaks which break ART - so ART will not work on v2.0. There are ways to go about editing the applications and keep ART, but I am not sure if this has been done, and if it has, I don't know what needs to be done to get ART working, so if you NEED ART, I apologize but this ROM will not be supporting it at the current moment. (9/20/14 -- v2.0 -- 2.21.605.2 OTA)

Q: What do I do with the Harmon/Kardon .zip if I don't flash it!? - Depreciated! Do NOT use on Android 4.4.3
A: As this MOD requires flashing a new ADSP.img (Advanced Digital Signal Processor) you are required to do this using fastboot and ADB. You should be familiar with ADB from using Firewater to get S-OFF as S-OFF is needed for this to work. Download the .zip to your computer, then extract the contents using your favorite extractor, I use 7-zip personally (on windows). Within the contents you will find a "How-To.txt" file, open that up and it explains what to do from there. Basically you have 3 files within the .zip, 1. the how-to.txt 2. a flashable.zip 3. a fastboot .zip. As explained in the How-to.txt one of these you flash in recovery, and the other is installed using fastboot

Well this looks very promising. I think I'll wait till the V1.1 update though. I hate having to set up my phone every time a ROM updates. Running Viper one right now. The customazations in that ROM are real neat but I like simple, super fast, and stable. Although I will admit I like my ROMS with as much black as possible it's easier to see the contrast and saves on battery life. Black pixles use almost no power. I can't belive the amount of developement for this device already.

I think I'll hold out and wait until 1.1. I loved your work on the GS3! Looking forward to flashing this. One thing though is I like how the status bar color changes depending on what app you're in like green for BlinkFeed etc. Any way to add that in if we like that? Thanks again!

This is awesome. Quick question: is mobile Hotspot toggle enabled for those on unlimited grandfathered plans? (no carrier check)

Downloading all the pieces now. What am I missing /gaining by using the HTC task manager?

Sounds good, thank you.

Task Manager - missing? Nothing, Gaining? A stock Task Manager, allows you to see how much free RAM and the ability to kill running applications.

It does not show up in the app drawer (I need to look into this, it may just be because it needs to be installed with ROM, rather than later, so to open it, hit menu button on home screen then task manager. if you don't have this installed, when you click it on home screen it will simply say app not installed.
