Hello again,

After the success of my AOSPAL builds, I thought I'd branch out a little.

So, in the words of Monty Python, "And for something completely different."

I wanted to find a ROM that offered features and customization options. Unfortunately most of the ROMs out now are either very early in development (and don't offer much over the stock AOSP experience). There are exceptions -- Illusion, LiquidSmooth -- but they already have builds for the d851. So I spent hours of painstaking research 30-45 minutes plumbing the depths of the Internet and discovered Android IceCold Project. Active development? Check. Active community and user base? Check. Nice options and a different user experience? Check! I'd found my next project!

Those of you that have read my AOSPAL 5.0 thread will already know this -- so new folks, this is for you: look at my profile and you'll see I've been a member of XDA for several years, and yet I have a shockingly low post count. In fact, the vast majority of my posts here have been in relation to the AOSPAL build. My search-fu and my Google-fu are strong. I search, read, search some more then read some more until I've learned enough to figure it out. I expect everyone that loads this ROM to have strong search and reading skills, and an IQ in the triple digits. I know that somehow, though, someone is going to post questions in this thread that have been asked and answered somewhere else. Not only will I not answer it, I'll waste valuable development time smacking my forehead and staring at my laptop display in stunned disbelief. Also, it makes the baby Cthulu cry.

So with that out of the way...without furhter ado, I present to you AICP Lollipop 0.1! I'll update this post later with a features list and whatnot. I'm also planning on building this ROM using the SaberMod toolchain to see just how much difference it makes -- and I'll make new builds somewhat regularly. I'm actually hoping to get OFFICIAL status on this one.

@CrusherJoe, great to see you taking on another ROM, and one with further tweaks than AOSPA. Thanks for your support.

I flashed about an hour ago, ran it through the usual checks with the Camera, all seems good there. Features are nice, and I noticed that the AOSP keyboard actually has functioning gesture typing. That's a first from all the Lollipop ROMs I've tried so far.

I have found one bug that seems to be present in any and all Lollipop ROMs that incorporate "increasing volume" in the Alarm (Clock) app. And that is that scrolling through alarms (when setting up 4 or more different alarms) doesn't work so well. Screen scrolls maybe 1/16" then stops, and you have to keep scrolling down 1/16" at a time. It's like it loses track of your finger touching the screen.

I've only noticed it in the alarm page of the Clock app, but it could be present in other areas. I'll have to keep track if I find any other buggy scrolling in other apps.

Thanks!

Does this update still contain the "majestical sourcery" that is sabermod 4.10?

There is no SaberMod 4.10. This statement is a lie. The previous statement was also. Or maybe it wasn't.

Damn it.

The later it gets, the weirder I become. ;)

Anyway...no. After running some benchmarks there really wasn't enough of a gain to make it worth it.

However...

... The next special ops build should (I'd I can get the damned thing to actually compile) will include a combination of Linaro/SM-4.8/9/10 and @JustArchi's compiler flag optimizations. That ought to put some sweat on your sack. :)

I'll announce it and or it up with a plain ol' stock build so everyone can run 'em both and see what a difference that combo makes (assuming it does, that is).

Okay, I'm not sure what got all borked up, but Hangouts VOIP is JACKED to the point of complete uselessness in terms of being a VOIP phone client.

Seriously -- don't flash the 20141210 build if you use Hangouts/Google Voice VOIP telephony functions.

I'll see what I can do about a fix -- I'll keep everyone posted.

Always loved AICP. Ill give the new build a shot in a little while. Right now AndroidFileHost isn't working right, all downloads go to a 404 not found

Hmm...AFH was having a lot of issues with file mirroring across servers yesterday, but they said they had it fixed. Looks like maybe...not so much.

Oh well, I'm sure I'll get to mess around with it soon enough.

Thanks for all your hard work, get some sleep!

Edit: Got it!
