[ROM][Kernel] Sanity-ROM [21/04/14] [4.4.2] [3.4.86] [CM11] [Bricked] - Nexus 5 Android Development

Sanity-ROM
- About -
This ROM was started months ago as i did not found the ROM i liked for my Nexus 5.
Nightlies were pretty much stock and all the kangs were too bloated with tons of untested features.
So i started to create this ROM as a combination of nice CM11 and an already almost perfect kernel(bricked from showp).
Just some nice cherry-picks here and there and small optimizations that are well tested.
I chose this name as there are no fancy or unstable features integrated and no insane build flag ricing is done.
This rom is optimized for: usability, battery, stability and speed where it does not hurt the other targets.
Just the perfect daily-driver for me.
Now i want to share the result with you and hope that you like it as well.

- Donations -
I am not asking for donations to me. I do this only for fun.
But yesterday a good friend of mine asked me to donate some money to weitblick e.V. which is a german charity organisation.
In three month he goes to Kenya with them and helps buildings class rooms for children.
The money will only be taken for building material and not for his journey.
We would be very thankful for every penny you give.
The easiest way is to send me the money and i will forward everything to them.
If you want to donate directly, feel free to ask me for their bank account.

- Disclaimer -
This ROM comes without any warranty.
Despite the ART fixes i still do not recommend it for everyday use.
It really has no great effect on performance and has risks of breaking things.

From what do you want pics or videos?
Most changes are under the hood and hard to see on screens. And as it contains theme engine you can customize any way you like.

Long press home key is customizable as well.

Rom seems great so far. 2 questions :
- is there any way to activate battery percentage? Maybe the stock way? Or am I just missing the right menu?
And: does cm11 allow bigger (4*4) pattern unlock? Or completely drawn gestures?

Both features are not stable/kk guideline compatible yet. So i left them out for Sanity.
Will be integrated as soon as they are.
Stock percentage can be activated with an app that is available somewhere at xda.

Very good rom, very stable and smooth, especially with art enabled. But the YouTube video playback bug is present and please make it possible to open notifications with a button on the navbar. Thanks for this great rom.

WOW This ROM is so crazy awesome, thank you!!!!! I love that it has CM11 features (most pertinent to me is USB Audio which works as it does with pure CM11 for Nexus 5) AND AND AND Bricked Kernel which is a great kernel with that gamechanger sweep2wake (and doubletap2wake) feature!! My power button is going to thank me for sweep2wake!
I assume that as CM11 gets updated (and even goes official), that this rom will get updated to have that official CM11 baked in? Ditto for Bricked Kernel updates?

Anyone else unable to download this? It says on the media fire website a big red authorize download with a line through the file name and I can't download it

It's captcha. Your browser probably is not displaying it for some reason.

Thanks for the nice words!
I hope the YouTube hang gets fixed soon.
I talked to some CM Devs and they said it is known and worked on.
Have you seen a solution to this notification via navbar idea before or is this your idea?^^

This has to be browser (or router/proxy) related.
Do you use opera? Please just chose another browser to download this.
