OptiPop - December 30th, 2014

So it appears we've been having issues with Odex versions of this ROM. After much testing it appears that either odexing is not working properly with the new features or the additional speed tweaks added in the last build are not compatible with odexing. Either way, I've had several people message me that they feel Odex was feeling more sluggish in the UI than deodex builds. I originally told them it was most likely a placebo but after hearing enough people say odex builds are slower did a comparison myself. Low and behold Odex build were slower. No kidding! It literally felt as if the ROM had gained weight and the UI just felt heavier to me. So for today, I only built Deodex builds to avoid all of the problem we're are having with Odex builds. (Note: If you wish to build your own Odex version of this ROM sync the sources and make sure to select user instead of userdebug for the build.)

I also have amended the installation instructions. I am now recommending that you setup everything before flashing custom kernels. Flash ROM/Gapps then Boot up and setup. After you've made it through the setup menu then you can play with other MODs, Superuser, Kernels etc. I think the success rate will go up with this method of installing OptiPop.

Unfortunately Basketbuild is down again (Edit: It's back online and builds are up over there now too). I've contacted AndroidFileHost and hopefully they'll be able to provider a better mirror for us in the future. For now though I hope one of the mirrors below will work.

Happy New Years Everyone!

Enjoy the Updates!

Cheers!

Recommended Installation - Please follow

1. Wipe cache/dalvik, data, system (I also recommend that you remove /sdcard/Android folder to avoid conflicts. You'll find some data from system apps on previous ROMs is stored here and causes problems.)

2. Flash ROM

3. Flash Gapps

4. Reboot and proceed to setup your device. (ROM kernel is EXT4/F2FS compatible and should boot fine for you)

Once you have got everything setup then you can continue to do the optional things like :

5. Optional: Flash EXT4/F2FS Kernel (Read here for more info on what to do: https://plus.google.com/104384867235711140238/posts/jgGGnRsuQiy)
