Member Info
Why kernel is not compatible with mastersanta's v3 rom?
It's more like the rom is not compatible. There's something wrong/different in his rom and only his kernel works ok.
I can't say why exaclty, but I assume it is coming from the different automatic brightness mechanism which reflects in screen power management too.
So far it is working in every other rom, but ofcourse some custom roms need to replace the ramdisk.
Are going to release a new version of your ROM or you are only focused on Kenel work?
Working on KK 4.4.4 rom, but don't know when it will be ready. Has the same problems as mastersanta's rom, since we're using the same source.
Isn’t this compatible with JB?
Only KitKat
You are the best Infrared. We a820 users are very fortunate to have you. Scene wouldn’t be the same
Its new android or update ? And how to install gapps on a820 ?
Its android or just update and what’s version is this 4.4.4? Or
This is just the kernel (the core of OS) and it is for KitKat AOSP roms.
Uploaded new version which should be compatible with mastersanta's rom.
For full changelog, see the description.
Which KK you recommend?
