Since everyone's asking for a separate thread (and I want a sticky post), here's one.
BIG IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
Seriously, read this
I'm trying a thing here - discussion and all that for version 5 (and yes, there's a version 5) will be on Reddit, more specifically, here: http://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/2moqig/cm12_nonscheduled_builds_discussionupdate_thread/
This is my attempt at keeping things clean. We'll see how it goes. I won't be reading this thread.
Version 4:
Updated to Android 5.0.0_r6 across the board
Features!
Reboot, airplane mode, etc. in power menu
Hardware key rebinding
Battery percentage in statusbar
Call blacklist
Dialer lookup
Protected apps
Profiles
Kill all apps button
More?
HSPA+ also has the correct statusbar icon now
Clean build, so things will hopefully stop regressing randomly
Fixed in version 3.1:
Mobile network icon showing 3G when actually on 4G
Fixed in version 3:
Bluetooth
Some miscellaneous improvements
Fixed in version 2:
Slow boot (for real this time!)
Settings alarms causing a bootloop
Download limit exceeded, save the file to your Yandex.Disk
Also, face unlock works with new Gapps!
Fixed in version 1:
NFC
Slow boot
Enabled multi-user
Not fixed:
Keyboard crashes on swipe input (upstream, use the Play Store version)
Video recording only captures sound
More?
How to install:
Boot to recovery
Flash the latest build: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=21188
Flash GApps: https://s.basketbuild.com/gapps
Flash SuperSU: http://download.chainfire.eu/593/SuperSU/BETA-SuperSU-v2.19.zip
Reboot
Full wipe before upgrading from CM11, things will go horribly wrong if you don't.
Might also need a wipe between versions, at least it didn't work right until I wiped.
DON'T flash custom kernels on this, it may or may not break horribly and you don't want to try
For developers: this is built from the latest CM12 source, here's what's different:
Removed com.qualcomm.location.apk, the new version depends on CM's MSim code which is not (yet) in L, and I can't be arsed to find an old one that works
Added overlays to enable multi-user

First here ? awesome work mate.
Great !!!! :good::good::good::good::good:
Other than the bugs already listed in the OP, I'm blown away at how great these alpha builds are running. Excellent stuff, thanks for building it.
Guys, can we please keep this a development thread? I'm happy that you're happy with how it runs and all that, but please don't just post saying "me too!" - it's getting hard to filter out the signal from the noise.
Just dirty flashed with cache/dalvik wipe and it wont boot up correctly. At first black screen and sometimes the launcher choosing flashes up and after reboot cyanogenmod circle circles forever

Some hints:
1. Keep in mind that this are early beta stage builds!!!!!! Means bugs can happen. So please only use this builds if you want to help us and iron out the bugs with proper bugreports etc (see third post about how to submit a bugreport)
2. Be sure you are on latest CWM recovery!!!!!! download it here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2200501
3. Not all gapps packages right now are nice working. You can try others but at least I know that the one linked here is working (it only does not have the new google launcher). If you have other gapps which are working you can link it here of course
4. Full wipe when coming from any 4.3 rom (as well format system manually please)
Download:
ROM:

Reporting Bugs
When you submit a bug you want to make sure that nothing from your side is causing it. Otherwise your developer might be hunting a bug which doesn't really exist.
The best way to achieve this is by doing the following.
1. Make a nandroid backup.
2. Perform a full wipe (factory reset + wipe /system)
Now we have two different ways depending on what kind of problem you're having.
3a. When you're having a problem with a ROM function, flash just the ROM without GAPPS etc. and boot back into the system. You will boot directly onto the homescreen.
3b. When you're having a problem with a 3rd party app in combination with our ROM then flash the ROM and GAPPS.
Boot now back into the system. You will boot to the setup wizard.
Log in to your Google account but make sure that you untick "Restore from my Google Account to this phone/tablet".
Finish the setup and open the playstore and download only the app you're having problems with.
4. Start a logcat recording and reproduce the bug (if possible more than once) while taking the logcat. If you don't know how to get a logcat read this tutorial or this.
5. Post the logcat in a txt file (this is important because you otherwise clog up the threads with your log) in the correct thread.
Please also write detailed description how we can reproduce the bug.
6. Restore your backup from point 1 and wait for a fix (don't ask for ETAs).
Yay!!
Finally. It's here. After a long wait.
Downloading.
Wait for it! Wait for it! You can jump up and down in front of your PC/laptop now, SlimKat is here!
yes!
Yeeeah new kitkat
Here I am come SlimKat.:laugh::good:
Very good. Downloading right now!
Is there a not-working list? The CM11 kernels works right? But the r2p3 or the normal ones?
Great rom.
Couple of questions, how go I turn off touch lights for menu and back?
My external SD shows full but isn't? Any ideas, was ok on 4.3.1?
Lastly, I'm guessing quick settings haven't been implemented yes?
Thanks in advance for your awesome work!

I'll give it a go later and see if I can come up with anything for you if I get time.
They will return. There's new features coming, old ones that have been revamped, some other features depend on those two so have to wait, and some just haven't been implemented yet.

yesterday i installed the 2014-04-23 nightly of carbon for urushi, i am using the provided kernel
a pretty neat rom indeed
some questions:
boot time seems to spend a lot of time on the legacyxperia logo.... more time than stock GB for sure
once booted i randomly get a message abou a new sim being detected/onstalled and asked to reboot.... rebooting may or may not remove the message. It's possible to avoid rebooting hitting back tough...
calendar widget (google or cclock) take plenty of time to initialize, i have not tried other widgwts
is there away to have support for ext2? i have link2sd plus and i wish to try out the new move private data feature but it requires an extN filesystem
hitting menu opens up the window to add widgets etc.... in that window the settings button does nothing.
the google now widget cannot be removed/moved from the main screen and i also suspect it is not notifying me incoming events i have in calendar.... but google now is something new for me
ah yeah... another thing
the aosp keyboard crashes if i try to swipe/slide

i think you use a ION TEST BUILD.
they are in DEVELOPMENT. better stay away from then for now
thery meant for more advanced user (provide logs & maybe fix)
Yes it's a nightly. Only those are available forma urushi.
I would happily write in the devel forum and provvide logs bu i stilo do noto have the number of post required
Or i can try legacy xperia but the few bits in the not working list stopped me
Thanks
in the end i removed the carbon rom, i was also experiencing battery drain
i put in a pacman that seems to solve most of the issues (don't know about battery tough yet....)

LX is the stablest. all the other 4.4 KK builds for our phone (carbon, pac, etc) are build on top of it
just make sure that you know that ION is a thing in development, so if you try a ROM which has enabled ION, prepare for more buggy xperience

really? looking at release dates i tough it was lagging behind
then i was freaked out by "wifi buggy" and "heavy battery drain when using bluetooth headset"...
in that case i am just gonna try it as it was my primary choice when i started this little jump from a stock GB to KK ...lol
First off I do not own an i605 myself but have the l900 (sprint) which is almost the same device. Hardware wise there is only a tiny difference which is in the partition setup. Sprint uses a different data partition mccblk0p17 where all other N2's use mccblk0p16 the other is our mccblk0p16 which contains special files used by sprint on their stock roms (just to make our lives more difficult). I have been working with @lacoursiere18 on a few of my projects for the l900 and we tried to port an earlier version of MIUI for our devices before he got busy with school. Since then I have successfully ported over MIUI to the l900 and i605. Brian has been nice enough to test build out and confirm it works great on the i605. So now I am releasing this for your flashing pleasure. I also took a little extra time and modified Plasma 2.55 to work with MIUI and gotten permission from @ffolks (a few months ago) to post the modified kernel for everyone to use.
Well everyone (l900 users and those who browse the l900 forums) already knows I hate doing OP's so they stay pretty simple and this wont will be any different. Also MIUI users know that there are weekly updates but since this is a port and I have so many projects going on. It might be a month or two between my releases.
This is ported from the N7100 which is based on Omni rom. Original rom is located here
http://en.miui.com/download-35.html
and is the one by mdiary. So far only issues I know of it call recorder does not work (just says being used by another app) and you have to go into settings..mobile networks..network mode and change to CDMA+LTE/EvDO to enable 4g after every boot. If you flash any gapps package you will lose gps. If you continue to read the OP I will give instructions on how to setup your MIUI rom to get the most out of it.
So I took the base and turned it into a full featured rom with a whole mess of add-ons and tweaks.
Included items/tweaks/mods
Adfree (although I already have a host list created)
dolphin browser
dolphin jetpack plugin
adobe flash 11.1 kk
es file manager
LG G3 Keyboard and a few themes
WSM (MIUI Xposed)
Mi-Tools module (like wanam or gravity box)
Paid themes module (all miui themes are free)
AOSP Dash Clock widget
AOSP Calender widget
Terminal emulator
A bunch of build.prop tweaks
A bunch of init.d scripts (to enable them continue reading the OP)
Bug list
MIUI-i605 4.9.5
Any Omni bugs
call recording does not work
If you flash any gapps besides mine you will lose gps
Change Log

First port of rom
Downloads
Flashing instructions
1. Backup internal sdcard to you PC or external sdcard (this will really help prevent issues
2. Boot into recovery and backup current rom
3. Do a factory reset (if using philz/cwm do clean for new rom)
4. Format/wipe internal sdcard (if you dont do this and have issues first thing I will say is format it)
5. Reboot back into recovery (this will create your internal sdcard dir structure)
6. Flash MIUI and boot it
7. After initial setup power off and boot into recovery
8. Flash Gapps (please do it in this order or you will end up wiping and reflashing)
9. Boot into rom
10. Go to post #3 and follow those steps
Do not flash any kernel besides the modified Plasma or your rom wont boot. If there is an AOSP kernel you want to use let me know and I will make it compatible.
Plasma 2.55 MIUI edition Synapse is included in this flashable zip

Importaint tips for MIUI
Simple things for now
1. Open security (located on first screen)..permissions.. and turn on root permission
2. Open WSM tools (miui xposed) and click install DO NOT reboot yet
3. At top of the screen you will see < Manage click here and enable all three modules
4. Reboot phone and setup Mi-Tools to your liking and reboot for settings to be applied
5. Open settings... general settings tab... mobile networks... network mode... set to CDMA+LTE/EvDO (will have to do this every boot to have 4g(LTE)
6. If you want to use a different launcher ( I dont like the iOS style launcher myself ) open settings... general settings... display... default launcher.. and select launcher3 or whatever you have installed yourself
7. Setup your google account and enjoy
Some things are in Chinese
in settings... general settings.. stock settings you will see two chinese options the top one is your advanced settings for samsung devices the bottom one is your Mi-POP settings (that circle with the back icon)

Note: This will edit your build.prop file (/system/build.prop) and will probably break OTA updates for ROMs with incremental OTAs (e.g. Mokee).
Note2: AFAIK, OpenDelta OTAs will NOT break in Resurrection Remix for example (because I OTA'd my way through Omni for almost 6 months on my old GT-N7000 with navbar enabled manually). If it does, please inform.
CameraNext Flashable:
Flashable zip for the CameraNext AKA CyanogenMod Camera AKA OPO Camera
I have found this camera app to be fully functional (tested on AOSP 5.0.2 by Ivan and XenonHD by @audahadi) if you tweak the settings.
Tweaks:
-If you get a black screen or a static image with just camera controls visible, in settings set Viewfinder mode to 'Letterbox'
-If video recording FCs or don't get saved, try setting resolution for video to 720p or lower. (Note that video FCs may also be due to kernel issues especially in the newer source-built kernels)
Ivan's kernel (possible fix for call bug):
NOTE: This will fix mobile data, WiFi and video playback errors common in ROMs which have source-built kernel by flashing kernels from Ivan's AOSP builds and placing reqd lib files.
It should also eliminate the new screen off death (call bug v2), please report if you get call bug with Ivan's kernel.
BUGS:
-Stock FM Radio app doesn't work anymore (5.0.2 ONLY?). More files from Ivan's need to be transferred probably...
Note: @audahadi and @Bitti09 are working hard on the kernel sources. If you want to help them out then I'd suggest NOT flashing these on their CM12/12.1 builds...test their work and give proper feedback.
For Android 5.0.2 ROMs
Credits:
- Ivan for kernel

- @SkipperRyujin for figuring out the WiFi fix

For Android 5.1 ROMs

Oh, I thought the partition layout was specific to 16GB variant, didn't want any noobs bricking their device.
If it worked for you, I'll remove that warning.
And I''ll change permissions too, thanks!
EDIT: Links working?

5.1 version up. Note that I haven't tested it.
But it uses the exact same script (just different file, from Ivan's 5.1 build) as the 5.0.2 one (which I've tested to be working) so it shouldn't screw up your phone. Just keep a backup first. Just in case.
If you do flash it, and everything works, please report.
How's the battery life?
Great.. Information gathered at one place is always easy for all. Hope u keep it updated..
Some flashlable zip for vibration reduction?
Is back to stock repartition gives the ota update support for miui..?
As someone comment like he no longer getting update when he change partition layout to 1.2 GB and then back to stock with this zip.

I believe @eaXier made a zip based on audahadi's which allows OTAs and MiFlash too (by changing the units to bytes or something)...
I mirrored that one now. :good:

In Settings>Privacy>Privacy Guard>Advanced, you can manage permissions for each app.
Find the ones which are keeping unnecessary wakelocks and uncheck the 'Keep Awake' and 'Wake up' permissions.
Note that disabling 'Wake up' for apps such as GMail/WhatsApp for example will prevent the app from waking up from time to time to sync hence delaying notifications.
PS. Your English is pretty good! :good:

Why you don't post alexkernel v3?
HybridRom Concept EditioN​
Description:
We all got used to the idea that most stable ROM is a Stock one.
This ROM will prove you otherwise.
Main Futures:
Very fast and responsible ROM based on Z3 aosp concept and GPE libs with amazing battery life and memory management.
Perfect combination of Sony and Google apps.
No bloatware, no adds.
Only 400 megabytes.
Optional modifications.
Installation options:
Feel free to install the rom the way you want it:
Wanna install & forget?
Then LB version without any mods is your choice.
Care about security and want to have nexus like phone?
Then don't install recovery on top of LB version , with encryption your internal storage can be only erased and only using a computer.
Are you advanced user who'd like to experiment with their phone?
Feel free to install mod for theme support and kernel for advanced futures.
You can also convert your phone into a hacking device. (Like in watch dogs game )
Change log:
V2:
Updated Sony and Google apps
Removed:Browser,Google Now,Gmail,Viper,Video(support implemented in Album) and some other bloatware.
Fixed Sony Sound Enhancements
Fixed Write To SD Card (I hope so)
Added new weather widget
Bugs:
Some people might have 5ghz wifi connection problem
In case of the using LB version and Universal Patch, trying to reboot into recovery using advanced power menu will result a bootloop. (System is trying to access a part of kernel which is not available on LB version]. Solution: reboot into flash mode and back.
Wifi may disconnect during screen off no matter the settings. (This is android problem, not my rom)
Installation Instruction:
Make sure that your Bootloader is Unlocked.
Boot in TWRP.
Wipe system,data,and both caches.
Flash the ROM.
FOR LB USERS ONLY: Flash this kernel on top. (Thank @scrubber for that one )
Then (optional,but not recommended) flash recovery for locked bootloder from here
Reboot device.
Prepare to be amazed.

FAQ:
Things you need to know:
Before reporting bug reports make sure that you use this rom without any mods such as Xposed
"App XXX crashes" posts won't help me to understand the problem, learn how to use logcat.
Don't ask for ETA
Before asking something, make sure it wasn't asked before
If you ignore my rules - I will ignore you
Q: Will Xposed work?
A: Yes, but install on your own risk, don't complain if battery life will become worse.
Q: Are themes supported?
A: RRO Layers are. Use Layers Manager + LPThemer(Xposed)
Q: Option "double tap to wake" in settings is not working
A: It's kernel related,so this option won't make any difference.
Q: Can I use old Hybrid Rom v1.x Kernel?
A: It will work, but deep sleep won't, so you will have a massive battery drain.
Q: Are you going to port Sony futures such as stamina,small apps and etc.
A: No, as this requires to use Sony framework. This rom is different. If you want stock futures - take a look at my other projects.
Q: How to allow 3rd party apps to write to SD card?
A: Use this app, you can remove it after applying the fix.
First,
Will try and report you back. Just one question does theme engine from sony is working or not and does it gpe based or stock sony based. Thanks for you great effort.

probably theme engine would not work . Its aosp based with limited sony framework to make only essential sony apps work .This was a new bloatware free concept rom from sony itself.
Ahh @Uncle Lucifer waiting for my exams to get over asap to get back to testing this rom

Nope, it's AOSP Z3 Concept and GPE based.
Clean AOSP Rom with Sony look and Apps.
P.S. If you will have problems with installation, you can try "Modem fix" from GPE thread, as I've heard that ZUltras for Indian market don't like gpe modem.
It have the latest goods from the 1.5UB ROM ? And the camera its from Sony ? How its the battery usage ?
Thanks U for share, this room very small, can have flash add Gapps?

Well it nowhere says that it needs to flash gapps, so no, there's no need

Because I don't have any .zip of gapps on my sd0 I guess you don't need to flash gapps. And flash instructions says none of gapps needed.
Theres no harm to just boot the rom and see if gapps is there. If its not well then u dont have any google apps in your drawer.
edit: the rom is 450MB big...I'd be surprised to see gapps not included in such big file
edit2: in the description it says "Some Google apps removed, others replaced with stock ones." ...lol gapps is included for sure.

Work fine so far on my c6802 with exposed (v74), WiFi work as it should
No modem fix needed (encounter sim card not detected on first boot, but mobile data work just fine :silly
Rom is really smooth. Menus just fly by very smoothly without any skips or lag! No errors or anything. Everything is stable from what I experience.
I am very impressed with your work @Uncle Lucifer
Tried the ROM for a couple of hours. Amazing and smooth. I just wait for more kernel features (OC , governors, hotplugs) like advanced kernel of the OLD HybridROM.

After testing oc and governors for few months I've noticed that more thing you add to kernel, the heavier it gets, and instead of improvements it's getting worse.
The best result are so far is without extra governors and oc.
I mean battery life and performance.
With OC you can get extra 1k in antutu, but I don't think that a really important thing.
Hi !
love the new rom, seem so fast and battery friendly
however i encounter wifi problem seem likely as cm12 custom rom. thats y i never stick with any cm based rom.
on gpe based rom, this bug currently not happening at all.
wifi keep disconnecting after several minutes and cant found any access point, if you try to disable and enable back, its still the same, only reboot will fix this, however wait 10-20 min, wifi will disconnect back, and the bug go on and on.....
i did report to cm12 based thread, about several thread, about 4 months now, the bug still not fix, maybe because it only happen for a few users, so they ignore it. yah, 4month and counting lol.
Uncle, i love your gpe based rom, and this current rom as well, i hope it did well and great as same as previous rom.
im coming from your gpe based rom, however already did full reset.
maybe i need to stick back to your previous rom.

Well, I didn't touch hardware related stuff and I never had this problem.
I mean that wifi should work as on gpe port, as hardware related stuff is still from gpe.
Tey to change wifi-frequency band in settings.

I guess you see this problem, because you have two xperia phones with custom roms. And your phones have same mac address. When you use your phones in same wireless network your wifi will be dropped. Try to change your mac address...

It's just less aggressive therefore it's more battery friendly.
And the minimum level is less, so it's don't burn eyes in darkness.
I personally like it more.
