Since @bcrichster put in the effort to provide content for this sticky I've transferred ownership to him for maintenance.

Thanks man.

 

[devilschild26]

[phenomx4]

Updated OP: added DU & CM12.1

Can you update the omni link to the beta thread

 

[devilschild26]

I think omnirom and du should be in it separate 4.4.4 actually these ROMs are not stock all built from source there might be confusion

 

[bcrichster]

I left Omni & DU in the KitKat section because it's still KK and also use KK partitions

 

[bcrichster]

Can you update the omni link to the beta thread

I'll get it done today [emoji41]

 

[devilschild26]

I left Omni & DU in the KitKat section because it's still KK and also use KK partitions

Only if u knew what LP uses

 

[bcrichster]

Only if u knew what LP uses

I do know that the CM12.1 are using same partitions but its a completely different OS, so I gave it its own section. I separated OS's, not versions

 

[bcrichster]

Can you update the omni link to the beta thread

Done [emoji41] I apologize for not getting to it sooner, I was busy tripping over & getting my butt kicked by LP. [emoji12]

 

[bcrichster]

Updated: added PAC-Man ROM

 

[bcrichster]

Guide updated - added Liquid Smooth
