[ROM] [UNOFFICIAL] [ALPHA] Dirty Unicorns 4.4.4 {TOGARI} (24 July 2014)

[Saatvik Shukla]

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 also 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".

"Give credit and thanks where it's due!" That's something that has fueled 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.....

| OmniROM | AOKP | ChaOS | Paranoidandroid | SlimROMs | Preludedrew | Team Black Out | 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.​

I just got CM11 working how I wanted it to, but this ROM looks too good to pass by. I know what I'll be doing this weekend. Thanks in advance for the hard work!

 

[blueether]

Congrats on getting your first build up, now comes the hard part - answering all the questions

 

[pTeronaut]

Working camera, plenty of options would be my daily driver if my phone had audio (not from the speaker or a wired headset). Bluetooth audio much quieter than any other ROM.

No recovery. LED goes purple, pressing either Vol + or Vol - turns the LED yellow but the device hangs on the 'Sony' logo.

Very much looking forward to the next build.

How to flash Flash boot.img in zip?
which file?

Unzip boot.img

use QuickIMG.exe to flash boot.img

or use fastboot to flasht it.

 

[Chima2]

Looks delectable, and I'm very eager to come aboard.

It's based on Omni, so multi-window is a feature?

Thanks for your hard work, good Sirs.

 

[leeleewye]

please provide boot.img zip file

So there's no recovery, and sound doesn't work? What sound works? Speaker, ear piece, wired, and bluetooth (quietly)?

Anyone else having trouble with recovery? I'm about to flash if not...

No media audio, no notification audio , no ringtone audio from the phone's speaker or wired headset. I didn't hang around long enough to determine if my one and only phone call that I expected last night had audio. They was sound from my sbh52 but it was only about as half as loud as it should have been.
Edited a bit red faced, the audio issue might have been me hitting on a setting.

 

[pTeronaut]

Second edit: Re-installed ROM and confirmed no audio from the device, In or Out, (Google not registering any sound when the mic is tapped on).
