[ROM][UNOFFICIAL][KitKat 4.4.2][HOLIDAY] PAC-man 4.4 [AOSP]

Hey Guys this is my first rom release. I would like to thank Albionman and Android1234567 for all the help and motivation they have given me.
I am planning on making it official and it should be done soon. Any bugs just post it in the thread and remember that PAC is still in Alpha so force closes here and there should be expected. Don't use the gapps in the link as it is not working use the mini modular from the CM11 thread until I update the gapps link.
Cheers:):):)

Was going to download and install till I seen the word ALPHA. Guess I'll wait to see if there are any bugs. Was nice seeing PacMan at the tops of the forums again. Miss the previous roms.

* Wipe both dalvik cache and cache

* Reboot your phone

Shouldn't it be like when you initially install, wipe then flash both rom and gapps? Or have I been doing it backwards?

So I went and insatalled.
Getting error during gapps install
Installing files...
cleaning up and setting metadata...
set_setadata_recursive: some changes failes
e:\sdcard\romstuff\gapps.kk-20140105-signed.zip (Status 7)
Installation aborted.

Went on to install mini-modular that I used on CM albinoman's releases. Had a sync issue where I had to delete account, reboot (which crashed and rebooted a second time) Added account and all is there. Might be all linked to wrong gapps.

Sweet loading screen :)

s-on
Not sure what recovery, trying to find it out (black screen with teal writing, using vol up/down and power to navigate)

Yeah what you say is correct. What I normally do when flashing is do a factory reset, wipe cache and then wipe dalvik. Afterwards I flash the rom. Also the gapps link was part of the template and I forgot to change it. I will link it to the mini modular as that is what I am using. Also your recovery is WCX recovery.

Had a code 7 installing gapps but when I restarted phone everything seems okay so far sms works but no mms for me Everything else seems fine tried camera and video phone calls had to restart once for syncing to work still testing was hoping for mms to work Still excellent rom so far only had it on for about an hour. Thanks for bringing new life to the vivid :)

Great ROM. Thanks for that. Following bugs observed so far.

DSP manager failure on launch of appolo. Returns
"Unfortunately DSP Manager has stopped. Blame Split Screen."

No support for in call headset mic even on this one.

Yeah forces closes like this happen and I guess it is to be expected until it comes out of alpha. But these force closes don't make the rom unusable.

Great release - flashed this morning and phone is running smooth.
Few issues with SD card.
Camera gives me "Insert SD card before using the camera"
Dropbox gives me "Your device has no SD card"

I can use ES File Explorer to navigate to my external SD card fine but that doesn't recognize the internal memory either.

From what I've read it seems like I have to mount my SD card from recovery - which I have done - but when I go back to check it, it's unmounted again. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

EDIT:

Also, my widgets do not stay on the home screens. Whenever I reboot they disappear.

Sorry... Didn't mean to thank your post...


You are using clockworkmod recovery... Please switch to twrp... Then mount for USB... Let windows format it... And try again...

EDIT:
Or you did a factory reset from the bootloader which would yield the same result

I also haven't experienced any problem with the sdcard other than mounting it to the computer through the rom which I am sure is a bug which has been around since jellybean.

I did factory reset from bootloader - you are correct. You suggest twrp - I'll need to look into that. Any link you can point me in the right direction to get this fixed. Thanks so much.
