At long last! Thanks for fulfilling my/our request man. :good:
Sent from my Nexus 5

Is cm theme engine included?

No cm theme, it's the same as regular purity but optimized

Great to see you finally made a thread for this @Cl3Kener great work as always bro

Nice to see your modded purity here
Will give this a try!

Feature requests
- Feature requests will most likely be ignored but you might get lucky.
**lockscreen notifcations**?? pleaseeee! - With purity+ being discontinued, this would be a god send.

Really happy to see a thread for this rom. Its all I've ran since I was first turned onto it unofficially in the purity thread.

Fantastic another exciting rom! Eager to try

Thanks for another Purity rom
just a silly question ... which version of Uber kernel u guys using or recommended to pair with this purity ?

Thanks master!!
Any plan for adding Theme Manager??

I don't think he would in the near future, people keeps on asking him about it but his main concern is the RAM usage.

If this has the flat signal icons in the status bar as well as white holo.... Winner!

---------- Post added at 11:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:02 PM ----------
Btw Great ROM

interesting...
I'm starting to think these optimizations people are incorporating in their builds/kernels are not just placebo's.. I notice "something" when i use say a linaro and/or sabermod kernel from day to do use... I'm believing that people wouldn't be wasting their time if in fact these optimizations, toolchains, etc weren't "helping" in one way or another..
They say googles code is old and that they've been using the same code for years.. Im bound to believe people (linaro, sm) are actually making it better and up to date.. of course there might be bugs since its a work in progress, and i think thats why googles code is still "behind" because they 'know' its stable.. i mean, it makes sense in my mind at least..
A lot of people say that our n5's don't need these new toolchains, optimizations, etc and theyre perfectly right.. we don't need it (like cars.. people don't 'need' to tune/upgrade their cars but they (I) do anyways -- bought a new turbo for my car the other day actually ), BUT I'm believing that even when you don't "feel" the difference, the difference is there in some way making it 'better' .. does that make sense? idk, maybe I'm just blabbering.. But i like having an open mind and won't bash something that i haven't tested/used myself..
So to call these optimizations placebo's is quite ballsy if you ask me.. Its not all about "seeing" and/or "feeling" the difference, its about how the system reacts/responds differently (lack of a better, in depth sentence lol) i think..
Anyways, sorry for my little vent, but I'm interested in flashing this (when i get back to the dorm).. Especially since it doesn't have holo blue -- and maybe my theme(s) will work :fingers-crossed: (don't see why they wouldn't).
Thanks, bud for the build.
I'll be probably one of the very few hard-core rasta/trinity users who will flash this haha.

Wow new Unofficial Purity ROM .... Downloading...... :laugh:

Ha, when people say a rom like this one or the slimsaber one is placebo, I don't read anything else they have to say. They are either outright lying, or they have to wear a helmet to school. These roms fly and are the only thing I even flash on my phone now. I also understand why big roms like Slim use the regular tool chain. They have a ton of users, and everything needs to work perfect, so they do not want to have to troubleshoot a tool chain as well. But for me and my uses, it is 100% stable for the way I use my phone.
Anyway, this rom is awesome. I use the peek app with it for lockscreen stuff, and I use the LMT apk for pie, so I will not use miss Slim pie too much.
Thanks for putting this up Chet!

Yeah, great another KitKat ROM's.
Many thanks for your hardwork.
Downloading and try. Will report soon :good:
EDIT : Which Gapps do I have to flash? Thanks in advance
EDIT : I used Lite Gapps from LX and its works
sorry to ask little bit off topic. Is there way we can install the kernel without PC? My windows 8.1 64bit wont let me connect my phone in my fastboot mode which is a widely known problem now. There is no solution yet. Any alternative way to flash the kernel?

Post your question here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1658959
The great start
Excited to see 4.4.2 on my Xpro.
Would like to see all things working than sticking to native ROM, e.g. WiFi hotspot, FM, HDMI, etc.
Testing, will report.....
Phone restarts frequently when using gallary app. Even when tried to change wallpaper.
Annoying music shuttering.
Phone hangs after playing game for some time.(e.g. Empire Defense 2)
The wait is over guys.. Official Carbon Nightlies are here.. currently building.. Will be up for downloads probably in 7hrs more.. Enjoy..

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.....

Can't wait to try this! Downloading now, looks badass.
Loved it when I ran with my old skyrocket, will give it a try
Wow, finally DU on my Hammerhead, only thing I am missing are the navbar options from most other roms, otherwise it's perfect. Do you plan to add more options for the navbar?

It has the option.
thanks for another highly customizable ROM
looks promising, time to find out
:thumbup:
I haven't installed anything since flashing the ROM, I turned on ART, rebooted, and now it's been at the bootscreen for the last 15 minutes.
Is ART not working? I see it's "not supported", but I figured it'd still work in some capacity.
EDIT : Wiped, installed different GAPPS, enabled ART = still no go.
EDIT 2: Wiped, installed GAPPS, installed custom kernel, enabled ART = still a no go.
Too bad, definitely prefer ART so this one will be a no go for me. Still a damn fine ROM though, I'll be keeping an eye on this one.
Does this include Theme engine/chooser. The OP doesn't make it clear.. I see TRDS and built in theme settings.. Is that theme engine/chooser?
Sent from my Gphone (Nexus 5)
This ROM is simply amazing!!
LOVE all that it has to offer and the BLUR Lock screen looks wicked cool after tweaking it to your liking.
By far the BEST ROM since OSE!! Thanks OP
OMG! Finally Dirty Unicorns to our lovely hammerhead ^^
Keep it up!

If you want SMS function, try to edit the framework-res.apk or use an Xposed Framework Module to enable.
Flashing that stuff should make it for you.
I think SMS will be enabled in the next build.

you should wipe the system...
(PhilTouch has the option, wipe to install new rom, it makes thing easier, just my opinion)
Probably the most stupid question ever, but...
Does that Rom also run on the Flo version?
Since I run DU on the Hammerhead, and I kind of like the same Roms on my devices, I really want to run DU on my non 3G Nexus 7 ...

About Us:
Dirty Unicorns is a project that started out with no name. It was a project that was first created based off AOKP back in the early days of Jelly Bean because of curiosity. In the early days it was just a one man show on one device (EVO 3D). Since then many others have joined the project and it has grown a whole lot. We have seen a lot of talent contribute to this project of ours and many of our contributors have gone to help other projects and that is ultimately why we do what we do.
Once Jelly Bean was over, we decided in Kitkat to move to a new base which was OmniROM. While AOKP was fun, OmniROM proved to be even more exciting because it challenged us to see what we could with something different.
With Lollipop, we have moved to an AOSP base with a lot of patches from CAF to make our older devices function as they should. That said it has been an awesome learning experience and is still not over! We are still learning every day and continue to move forward.
Few more things we will say is that we don't accept nor ask for donations. We don't believe in that. Everything that is necessary to keep this project going is out of our own pocket. Gerrit, Jenkins, Websites, Devices, etc.....
We will never ask for a dime. All we do ask is that you search, read and try to enjoy the process with us!!​

Great! It's nice to see this rom here
You're badass Alex! Thanx mate.
Yes! Will try now! Can't wait!
I posted a mirror to v9.0 in case there's issues with speeds or whatever
Please do not post any mirrors
Love dirty unicorn ..
surely one of the best Lollipop rom along with plenty of customization !!
Downloading now, .
Just got it booted up and settling in, butter so far, test battery and everything else tomorrow... Just a quick thanks for your efforts.
Downloading now, I settled on DU for KitKat, really enjoyed the feel of that ROM. Interested to see how DU feels on a stick
Welcome back guys!.. Excellent Rom, new fav & daily, smooth as silk, only possible thing I miss from the UB Rom I was on previously is Heads up notification, and theme engine which I'm sure you're already working to include in future build
Sent from my One using XDA Free mobile app
Hello all,
Can I ask, does this have the default aosp Material theme throughout or has it been modified in some way?
Anywhere I could see a list of features added so far if any?
Many thanks. I always feel uncomfortable asking the dev these sorts of questions as I don't want to feel I am pestering.

No there's no modifications made to the theme and NO, there's no feature list.
Best way to find out what's in the ROM is to either flash it or check out our source/gerrit
I just wanna say thanks SO much for supporting the CDMA devices too. I was a big fan of KK DU on m7spr. I often wish I was on GSM to benefit from better development but you guys think of us too and I'd probably use DU no matter what device/carrier I'm on. You guys have the best ROM and I'm pumped to try out this and future builds. I'll make a note of any issues, but thanks again!!
Update: Everything works - definitely usable as a daily driver. Issues i've seen so far (m7spr):
- maybe like 1000 different APNs listed, though it is choosing the proper one so doesn't matter much.
- screen-off animation is a bit glitchy
Nice ROM, tried a few lolli ones up to now, this is one of the better ones. Thx
This is my next daily lollipop rom, good work, really enjoy this
Yes, this is a great ROM! Kinda kicking myself for not getting around to trying previous versions. Thanks for your work! ?

nice been waiting for this time for some fun
Hell of a ROM. Really ambitious to go AOSP base. Congrats on cracking that nut!
There are a lot of great features in DU's kernel too. Frustrating a bit, because I forked from CM and have been spending a ton of time building some of the same features into my own.
One issue I had with the ROM though, was that it seemed really laggy. Anyone else have the same experience with it?

I thought it was laggy upon booting as well, so I tried flashing the kernel time kernel preview from your beanstalk build and everything worked flawlessly after that. Very stable.
No lag here after clean install. Phone dialer not working for me, constantly fc. Restored nandroid. HTC is got my m8, waiting on replacement, using my evo for now. Will try to flash again this eve.

Wouldn't have guessed it would be kernel related. Good to know.

I've been running this for the last week or so. Clean flashed, but also noticed the lag. Especially after a couple of days uptime. Just rebooted this morning and it was a bit better but still not as smooth as some of the ROMS I've run. However, much more stable, so probably something that I can deal with.

Thanks for that tip, I may have to look into that. One question (asked out of laziness because I'm on my phone now instead of the computer) but is that a flushable kernel, or do you have to pull it off the ROM to use it?

The kernel is flashable, post #3 of beanstalk thread. I did another clean flash and set up, then installed kernel time preview. Other than some data connection issues, very smooth.
Could you elaborate on how to put the other kernel on, with this DU?
My phone is encrypted so I plan to completely format the phone and do a clean install of DU and gapps, so after that, what should I do? I'm thinking I need to factory reset, boot the phone again, but then I use captains TWRP to install the other kernel?

Yeah. You get the kernel on there the same way you got the ROM on there.
I'd suggest booting into DU first though. Won't make a difference in compatibility, but it will do a fine job of making sure you're complaints aren't directed my way in the event you're using the wrong recovery.
I have no idea if that kernel works on the old partition layout. If it does work, it's either coincidental or accidental or something.
I just flashed the kernel and wiped cache / dalvik. Then I rebooted and started to watch a show. When the show was over I looked at the phone and it was still on the boot animation.... Great, I thought, I'll probably have to start over with a clean install. But I turned it off and back on, and it started doing the whole "updating apps" thing. (sigh of relief)
Anyway I have already noticed a significant improvement in the responsiveness of the ROM with this other kernel. And that's before even tweaking any of the kernel settings.
It's always a best practice to wipe of course, but I haven't done so after flashing kernels and haven't had any problems yet.
Wouldn't even mention it if we were still on dalvik, but ART takes forever.

True, true. Very annoying. That's why I had initially put my phone down for a while before I realized it hadn't finished booting. I wasn't sure if it was necessary or not. So to be safe, I did it. Maybe next time I won't.
You are going to love what's in the kernel I'm working on. S2W, tap 2 W, voltage control, lots of governors and force fast charge. Oh and it's also faster and smoother than CM, without sacrificing an ounce of stability.
S2S still doesn't work, but that will be coming soon enough.
I really think it deserves to be considered an "original" development as is, but I want to add a few more features before releasing.
Cool!
As an aside, any suggestions on cameras? I saw that HTC released their HTC camera separately as an app, but I don't know if it's even possible to get it to install on the EVO 4G LTE with stock Rom or this DU rom. I know with browsers you can edit a browser string to identify your browser as any kind of browser to get websites to load. is there a similar edit you can do to ROMs to allow installation of the HTC camera from the play store? Or is there a version of the HTC standalone new camera that has been modded to work on the HTC EVO 4G LTE?
Camera features I like are:
1) being able to adjust the JPG compression quality (e.g., superfine, fine, and normal) as a separate setting apart from the pixel resolution (google camera lacks this feature)
2) having single-press buttons available to get video or stills without needing to switch the camera into either modes ahead of time (google camera lacks this feature)
3) burst mode by holding down the shutter without needing to switch to burst mode (not sure if google camera can do this)
4) save to external SD card (the google camera lacks this feature)
I tried various aftermarket cameras, and some come close to having all these features (e.g., the Lenovo supercamera). I think the new HTC camera would be ideal, but heck, I am not even sure how to load the old stock HTC camera from the RUU rom that works well (even though you can't adjust jpg compression level). Should I just give up on this ideal because HTC cameras *MUST* be run on Sense? Can the
dude, the "sense" camera has proprietary code in it, thats why in the sense kernels, the camera seemingly works 10x better and more accurate and more quickly then a non-sense rom. its the same across the board for all HTC devices... If the camera is your focus, you need to be on a sense rom.
There was however, a sense camera ported to the GPE (google play edition) for earlier versions of jelllybean for the htc m7 aka htc one. never screwed around with it, but its interesting nonetheless.
Im about to flash the dirty unicorns stuff now. i was on the kitkat dirty unicorn last month, and flashed cm12 just cause i was curious to see how lollipop was. I was kind of underwhelmed, especially because i sac'd the xposed framework just to be on a newer version of android. anyway, ill test it out and see whats up./

What's your hboot and twrp?
Assuming you're on hboot 2.10 or higher and you're using captain's twrp, you should do a factory reset from twrp, then wipe system, dalvik and cache. Reflash, then wipe cache and dalvik again. Then reboot.
I typically flash gapps right after the ROM, but if I have problems, I go back and boot just the ROM first. Leave it on for a few minutes after it boots to let all of the background processes finish, before going back to flash gapps.
