What is OneDroid:​
OneDroid is a custom ROM for Nexus 5, based on CyanogenMod. It's always up to date with latest commits directly from CM repos, optimized for best battery life and performance and offers a lot more, like pre-installed Google apps, screen recording, lots of tweaks, etc.
What is the aim of this ROM:​
I made this ROM for the following reasons:
1. To provide updates as soon as code gets committed, so that you're always up to date
2. Remove features which aren't necessary, so that you get a ROM which doesn't have a lot of crap in it
3. Fix bugs and optimize the code, so that you get the most stable ROM
4. Add my own features, like custom tweaks, OTA updates and more, so that you get the best experience
Small favor:
Please don't ask for ETAs. I am studying in school (final year, ending in March) so I really can't provide exact release date for a particular build every time, at least not before March. I'll be trying my best to push out stuff as fast as I possibly could, however. I hope you guys enjoy using my ROM!

FAQ:
Q. The ROM has two dialer apps, is it a bug or an error?
A. No. The ROM comes with two dialer apps: One is the stock, AOSP dialer app and one is the Google dialer app. The stock dialer app comes without Google's new Caller ID feature so I have supplied Google dialer along with the stock AOSP dialer app, just in case someone wants to use that feature. There is no way to have that feature in stock dialer app since the code for that feature isn't open source.
Q. The video recorded by screen recorder doesn't play at times, what's wrong?
A. Its BETA.
Q. Whenever I am using 4G/LTE, the signal bars don't show any activity, does that mean LTE/4G doesn't work?
A. No, it's a glitch/bug in CM code. When you have turned on LTE/4G and don't see any network indicators, it does not mean 4G/LTE isn't working.
Q. Can I install a particular build on top of another (like, flash BETA 13 over 12) without wiping anything (dirty flash)?
A. Yes
Q. What is the name of the iconpack used in the picture at the top? Also, the wallpaper link please?
A. The iconpack is called ClickUI. Wallpaper here​

Awesome to see another ROM, but isn't it not allowed to include google apps in aosp roms? Just curious because I don't remember that ever changing

---

In the OP what font is being used in the "One Droid" Image?

There's no clear answer: Some say it's perfectly fine since the ROM is for a certified device, some say it's against Google policies. If Google tells me to remove it, I'll do. Until then, Google Apps will come pre-loaded.

Okay I have re-installed this ROM 3 times already and I don't know if anyone else is having this problem. But I'm getting random reboots even before finishing the setup hmm unless it's a MultiRom issue but I hope I can try this one day!

---

Yes random reboots here too

Looking into this. It's a bit hard to diagnose issues since I don't have a Nexus 5 and I rely on a couple of friends who have it, for testing.
