[ROM] Empire by ME [Theme and Boot fixed][Updated 18/2]

Here I present you my first ROM-Empire.
Empire is a custom ROM which based on Jusada's Ice Cream Sunday Final WITH his permission.
I took the framework-res.apk from the awesome Infinity ROM by Nims 11.
So you'll experience the ultimate transparent beauty user interface.
Although the framework-res is from Infinity, but the default launcher is MIUI-Launcher. With MIUI Launcher, this ROM looks ultimately beauty.
Furthermore, this ROM is also Xperia themed. For example, the phone, messaging, contacts are the same with the Xperia smartphone.
Since this is a light weight and barebone ROM. So, features like Google Search, Livewallpapers are NOT present. So do not ask for questions about why there's no Google search and livewallpers etc. Use this ROM if you want to, do not comment if you didn't like this. Thanks.
The features of this ROM are as below.
Based on unofficial Cyanogenmod 7.2
Light, fast and stable ROM
Barebone by ME
Superb Crystal Clear transparent experience
Comes with awesome MIUI Launcher
Modded SystemUI.apk
Slaid's LagFreeV3 for optimization
TurboBoost-8.5 for advanced optimization
Build.prop tweaks for some performance
Precise Volume Control for 30 steps volume control
Smooth scrolling script for best scrolling performance
Battery drain fix to improve the battery life problem on CM7
Bravia Engine for enhanced display
xLoud for louder sound
I might forgotten some...
Download link, installation guide and more are below. Slide down for more!

Another rom which is only themed different. I appreciate that but GUYS, make something new, every rom now has turboboost, tweaks from slaid, based on ANOTHER CUSTOM ROM or stock, only theme is different. Everybody can change theme in theme chooser and make transparent status bar for themselves.

Why don't you go ahead and build one instead of demanding this...? I don't know... Maybe AOSP... From scratch... Know what I mean?
Oh, yeah, sorry... I forgot you simply CAN'T DO IT!!!
Cheers!

I knew that you will be hating me. I'm not making roms which are only themed, cause I don't want to be 'wannabe developer'. You have right I can't make rom from sources, but hey, you can't do it too. 1:1

You can't - the ones you listed will force close or not function correctly - different framework
if you want to change the look use a theme in theme chooser

I have already said - get a theme (xda or playstore) and apply in theme chooser
Or make your own theme for theme chooser (search how)
or replace all the pngs in the apps yourself

[Q]

The stock rom is odexed .To use custom roms apps in stock you need to deodex it.Themes only work on deodex.

3.U MAY FIND SCREEN SHOTS OF FRAMEWORK IN THE LOWER POSTS SCREENSHOTS OF APPS WILL BE UPLOADED SOON

just get back cm11 m9 i'll test it

Currently downloading CM11 again.
I will add some Screenshots later.
Edit: I've noticed no changes. Only the settings look different and nearly every preinstalled app crashes when I want to open it. Tried it on the newest CM 11 nightly. Later I will test it together with the M9 build.

i recommend to use m9

@ChickenNugget
Try using m9 and these are the basic differences u will note:
sliders
Settings app
Progressing icon/bar(the one appering during optimization of apps) changes
On off sliders change
Cursors change
And i vl be soon uploading a full xperia pack compatible with m9
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app

With the M9 Version of CM11 everything works just fine. As this is the Z2 Framework will the Xperia Z2 apps like the lockscreen or launcher work, too?
Here are a few screenshots:

yeah, but it's not like a full rom of xperia with all the features, design, apps, etc.
like this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo.../port-nexsense-sense-6-0-wifi-fix-m8-t2703397
which is actually a port of the original M8 system.
the system is still cm11 only with the design of xperia.

@dors1234 Yeah you are correct but you are comparing two totally different things i am trying to make the rom look almost like xperia and i m still working on it, the things which u r talking about is way too difficult even for a highly qualified developer, both the concepts r port only,and its not so easy to do this task too it took me 4 days you cant really comparing it to a theme and the port you are comparing to is still in alpha state

[TW][ROM] Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 Touchwiz rom

Hi all,this rom is made and tested for Tab 2 7.0 P3110 (it should work for P3113). This rom is NOT TOUCHWIZ BASED that means you cannot download any Touchwiz app and it would work in this rom. It have some ported TW apps and they work. Rom is builded with Nightly CM11 and it work really fast. I would try to update it and port more TW apps on it. If someone know how to port old TW apps please reply.
How to install:
1.Install TWRP or CWM recovery
2. Always made backup
3.Wipe data,system,davlik and cache
4. Flash zip file
5.reboot to rom
Important:
1.In themes Select S5 TW theme (for now need that way but i would edit apps to look like TW wthoud theme)
2.This rome have sound booster
3. This rom doesent have GAPPS, i would provide a link to download them, but for Kitkat it just slow device​4. This rom uses a CM11 stock kernel moded to run TW frameworks.
Rom: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1W-U8SlKBSF9rlQXDxt5UV0erU0Q4LtnO/view?usp=sharing
Gapps: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1395089523397890528
Kernel source: https://github.com/An2rejKK/Tab-2-7.0-4.4-TW-rom-Kernel-source
