[ROM] Dirty Unicorns Unofficial 4.4.2 [Omni] [FEB 07]



ROM INFORMATION

Dirty Unicorns (DU) is a custom ROM originally based off AOKP, but now based from OmniROM. DU brings you a great mix of stability and customization. The idea to start a ROM like this was purely out of boredom, but later turned into a form of an addiction, a good one. We began to have fun while still doing things the right way. By doing so, we received high praise from not only our users but by fellow developers of other ROMs that enjoy seeing things done the right way. This ROM will always be free of charge without any strings attached or any of it's developers luring you into donating or any form of "pay to flash".

CREDITS/THANKS
"Give credit and thanks where is due!" That's something that has fuel the way we do things! With that said, we would like to go ahead and credit those individuals and groups that have made this ROM possible with their original code and contributions to the Android community.....

| Omni-ROM | AOKP | ChaOS | Paranoidandroid | SlimROMs | Preludedrew | Official Testers / Translators |

Believe it or not, we are human and we do forget things. If we have left someone out of the credit/thanks list, just PM us and we'll gladly add on to the list.
*Also Thanks to xHausx- He helped me get the SD card working!!!

A co-worker of mine uses this ROM on his EVO 3D and he loves it. Granted it's 4.2.2, but he says its rock solid and loves all the options and tweeks. Hopefully it'll work the same for the One S...

On first impression a nice new toy with lots of options and settings. But I don't get the buttom lights to work. Or must they be enabled somewhere and I simply don't find where?!

Damn you rhino! When I see aokp, I can't resist the urge to flash it. Now you go and make two aokp ROMs 2 days apart.
Lol they switch from aokp to all omnirom sources. But I think u will like it. Let me know what you think. And this ROM has all the features that aokp has not implemented into 4.4 yet
EDIT: And to all the hboot 2.16 users I'll put a build together before this weekend. You all will have to test it for me though.

I don't believe they working at the moment. I'll add it to op
Add to the OP that also the backlight bug is not fixed in this release. Being kernel dependant you should either include the commits in the kernel or make flashing of Bubba possible (you said it's breaking WiFi but I didn't test). Could be to the fact Bubba is now aligned to CM11 that moved wifi to kernel. In this case, latest Bubba that can be flashed is from 4/01 but that one doesn't contain the backlight fix

To summarize, the following "bugs" are present:
- during a call I've noticed that the signal indicator shows "no signal/no coverage" (it's an empty triangle) but I do have full signal since I am in a middle of a call and I don't have any call drops or disturbance.
- backlight bug (during calls)
- sound is low and there are small "cracks" sometimes when adjusting volume. This was fixed in CM and other KK ROMs
- hardware button light not working

Yes this is the initial release. I will work on all these fixes this weekend. I didn't notice backlight bug but I will add it. Thanks. For custom kernels I've got some tinkering to do but I believe since cm disabled module loading on kernel that's why it breaks WiFi. I will revert those commits and build with new kernel this weekend.
