With quite a handful roms now available, is there a 4.4 build that includes a functional pie menu and/or expanded desktop?
No specific preference if it's stock or CM or PA or AOSP, as long it's working well enough.

Hi mates.
I've installed TouchWiz from TWNexusUI on my Slim Bean ROM but the layout isn't correct.
I've attached some images in order to explain better.
Turn off navigation bar and use pie

And I'm searching through this forum, I have already unlocked and rooted. I currently have cwm 6.0.2.3 id like to get twrp. Can I simply use goo manager and install it that way?
Other question what the hell is MAKO? I'm not sure what stuff I can flash for stock 4.3 some of the stuff doesnt really say. Some of the things say for aosp but arent we technically aosp if we are stock?
I had the old Nexus S and that was easier ro guide through. I also have a Note 2 on sprint which is really Easy to tell what I can and can't flash.
My build # JWR66V.

Mako = Nexus 4
AOSP is the raw Android, with none of the Google apps/features, but it can have some additional features added depending on the developer
Yes you can install twrp through goo manager just fine.

Ahh k so AOSP would be more like CM. And stock is stock however can't find a kernel for stock 4.3 that is.

Stock 4.3 comes with a kernel. If you want a kernel for "stock 4.3 (JWR66V)" use Faux 018, semaphore (non J) or Franco.
Try and word it better.
Stock: JWR66V
AOSP: JSS15J
Using a JSS15J kernel on a JWR66V build (and vice versa) will cause screen tearing.
Mako is the codename of the Nexus 4. All the Nexus devices have a fish as codename.
AOSP is the Android Open Source Project.
For a Nexus Google compiles AOSP, then pre-installs some of their Apps and thus replaces some of the AOSP ones.
CyanogenMod works similar for a Nexus. They take AOSP Android, add functionality and compile it.
Installing the Google Apps is optional.
The stock Rom replaces the AOSP camera app with Googles one.
The Cyanogenmod camera app is the AOSP camera app with additional settings.
The stock Rom replaces the AOSP music player with Google Play Music.
Cyanogenmod replaces it with Apollo.
Currently there is the Nemesis Project from the cyanogenmod guys. They want to fix the shortcomings of the AOSP android experience.
The first thing is the camera app. The AOSP one is lacking, to put it gently. They bring us their own app, called Focal which makes the Samsung, HTC,... camera apps look like toys.
Used it for the first time today and it is THE ****!

Thanks but you didn't have to go that far I mean I pretty much know about that I was just simply a little confused when it came to what I can flash on what I can't because of the building numbers and I was a little confused on if I was on AOSP already kind of like with Samsung devices you have the option between either touch wiz or AOSP for the most part

Hello my fellow nexus users, from last few days I have been changing ROMs and still not satisfied with any one, I mean if I go for features then I will have to sacrifice battery life n stability, I love to use Franco kernel but it is not compaitible with the most featureful ROM I.e mahdi ROM n if I go for purity then it still lacks a lot of features, my point is till pa 4.0 is in beta stage, I feel there is no benefit of upgrading from 4.3 to 4.4.2 , I mean pa 3.99 was stable, feature full n fast enough to satisfy all my needs, I need your suggestions that shud I revert back to 4.3 pa 3.99 or stay tuned for a better rom

Using pa 4.0 beta and for me it's stable enough. I use it as my daily driver.

I'd say stick with PA3.99. I mean the whole point of CUSTOM Roms is to have features that stock users dont. I still use Carbon Nightlies and still am on 4.3 JB.
When u finally have the custom features u want, Then upgrade
I use 4.4.2 with gravity box. Works wonderful and sufficient until there is a proper PA release.

Hi, i installed first time paranoid 4 on my phone and i can't find any options, settings, customizations... Only standard kitkat's settings. It's normal? I havent halo icon in status bar too. Should I install something additional?
Read the Pa thread's op... , always read op before flashing

I'm still don't understand. There arent features because it is beta? I didnt flash kernel, it is important?
No need for kernel. No PA features beta.

I was wondering if any of the cm based rom have a pend and dual Windows functionality along with all those that Samsung provides. Any AOSP or AOKP rom that can fulfill these two needs and be stable will do the trick.

Hyperdrive if you're willing to use a Touchwiz ROM, and I can't say enough good things about it. That said most of the Spen stuff is in Touchwiz only. If you're set on AOSP or AOKP, you may be out of luck.
I am using X-NOTE build 15 at the moment. Beats any other TouchWiz rom for me. And sad. I can't leave those features for anything. I think am going to be sticking with X-NOTE then. But I shall give hyperdrive a try when I get a little time. Thanks man.
