This is a playground/playplace of sorts with all kinds of ROMs, such as PSX and RastaKat. I do take requests as far as which ROMs to build or features for the kernel/device-specific repos, however, my goal is to stay as true as possible to the upstream ROM, so most ROM feature requests will be denied.

Discussion and ROM Links available at the Sprint forum to consolidate everything. So far, for AT&T, only PSX is available, but more will be available as time goes on.

Hope to see you here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2543176

Fantastic!

I loved PSX on 4.3, can't wait to get home and install this one.

Edit: just want to day the PSX build is running great! Keylights aren't working (though I'd have turned them off anyway), and NFC doesn't want to turn on, even with the fix_NFC.zip, but as I currently have no use for NFC, its a non issue for me.

Don't know what you mean by upstream of ROMs..

I know houstonn is building ParanoidAndroid. I believe he's stopped doing Carbon..Snow does Carbon... So I'm going to choose a Nexus 4 ROM if possible.. Cataclysm if possible! :D

Upstream means the ROM source itself. Any device has sources specific to that device (device source, kernel source, and binaries) and pulls the rest of the parts of the ROM from upstream. In other words, I would prefer not to have a feature request list for ROMs. I'd like to keep them as close to how the developers intended them as possible.

BTW, I should be able to build Rastakat for GEEB and GEEHRC today so the offerings are the same on all devices. Then, I'll add Cataclysm for all devices. Thanks for the recommendation.
This is fantastic, seems like we'll be getting a flood of ROMs :) thank you!

Pure speed X will work with optimus g without any addtional mods ? The description clear says its a ROM for nexus 4
The description is only there to get a sense of what the ROM is. The download link is right below for your device.

i'm getting "failed" with every install try. tried restarting recovery after a fail. tried a lot of different twrp versions..ideas?
I was having the same issue. I had to wipe as usual, i then powered off and went back into recovery and flashed fine. Not sure if powering off is necessary.
I use Brothaedhung's TWRP.

Northern USA somewhere
Flashed PSX the other day.

Overall smooth as usual, after all of the restorations/fixes (location apk, efs, flash google camera 4.4) things were very smooth. Minimal ram usage, which is perfect. A lot of apps aren't compatible/functioning properly with 4.4 yet, the only reason why I didn't keep it. 5 bugs (if you want to call it that) that I noticed during my time with PSX in particular, didn't flash Beanstalk yet.

1. Sms seems to not restore (it does, but then it deletes), not sure its a ROM thing. Im guessing its a Kit Kat thing seeing as it happened on every 4.4 build i've flashed thus far. Used "SMS Backup +" app.

2.Busy box says it installed but not the version I selected, dont know what that means or if its even a real bug but it still worked.

3. Boot animation doesn't change using 3rd party app (Boot Animations ★ root) Again not sure if its a ROM thing or app.

4.Faux clock worked as it should but faux sound didnt, is there a Kernel that we were supossed to flash or just use the one that came with it?

5. Good ol Maritime is back, doesnt affect anything, nor do I actually care but im sure it bothers some people.

Thanks for providing more KitKat options bro, I know it's still young but good job.

You can change the boot animation by taking the zip of the for you want, naming it bootanimation.zip, and putting it in /data/media
