[Review] Current State of Lolipop - Xperia Z2 General

Because i had to much Time on my Hands i finaly decided to install MultiROM and play around with Lolipop.
I'm not a huge fan of Lolipop because ART blocks Xposed module and you cannot modify system yourself (easily anymore) but need pre configured ROMs that fulfill your wishes. But still i've tried out a few ROM's at this date and tought i'd share my Opinion.
Base System:
Main ROM is a Sony Stock .167 preRootet with AndroPlus kernel v21
MultiROM allows for various other rom's to be installed.
Installed Lolipop ROM's
CM12 infected_ build 2015-02-04
PAC Alpha1 build 2015-01-30
Candy5 RC v0.9.5 build 2015-02-03
Paranoid Android Alpha1 build 2015-02-02
SlimLP Alpha 0.91 build 2015-02-01
You can see the different size here: (Note! No GAPPS installed! Pure empty ROM)

NOT installed Lolipop ROM's
AOSP => Well i haven't found out how to install .img files.... guess i'll have to fastboot, create backup via TWRP and install this as 2nd ROM.
Validus 7 => Fails to boot for me. Seems to work fine with MultiROM if you have CM12 based MainROM
Any other i'm missing ?
Current Situation with LoliPop
Mostly everything is working fine. Pictures work in Full Resolution and video Recording works in 1080p. Mobile Data and Calling works...
There is no Official Sony LoliPop release yet therefore no goodies like 4k Recording and other stuff we know from 4.4.4
Just a simple an plain Lolipop.
CM12:
The Performance Setting is simple and you can tweak Status Bar and Notification Drawer.
FileManager App included!
Screenshots here: http://imgur.com/a/Uhp9W
PAC-man:
The Performance Setting allows for Min/Max CPU clock and Governor.
The PAC-Settings include Animation Control, App Circle Bar, Gesture Anywhere and a WakeLock blocker!
FileManager App included!
Screenshots here: http://imgur.com/a/ndQIS
Candy5:
Simple Performance Profiles, The Candy Interface settings allow you to change SatusBar, NavBar, Notification Drawer, Lockscreen Shortcuts and Buttons. Gesture Anywhere included.
Screenshots here: http://imgur.com/a/2odoN
PA:
The development of PA for 5.0 just started recently. Therefore there is no big customization included yet.
But Gestures and Button control is already included.
Screenshots here: http://imgur.com/a/UCxLQ
SlimLP
SlimLP is really slim, you have controls for StatusBar and Quick settings, thats about it. The Performance setting is also just chose Profiles.
The DPI do seem a little higher so all menue points are smaller than on other ROMs. (App Drawer also has 5 apps per row instead of 4)
Screenshots here: http://imgur.com/a/9Tun8
Conclusion:
LoliPop on the Z2 is still in a early Stage of development.
Even though everything seems to work and you can easily use it as daily driver the question remains: Do you really want that?
Me myself i might even use Official Sony LoliPop only as 2nd ROM and keep 4.4.4 with Xposed.
I really don't want to miss ActivityForceNewTask, ChromePie, Complete Action Plus, CPU Temp in StatusBar, Nativ Clipboard and a few other Xposed Apps.
So whats your Opinion on this Topic ?

You should give a few details about what is included. People who are happily using one ROM won't bother flashing another person's ROM that needs testing if no list of features are added explained.

The Android Open Source Project with RRO/Layers​​
Smoothness of Stock ROM with greatness of RRO Themes​​
What is AOSP?
AOSP is Android as Google publish without other modifications. More or less AOSP is the Nexus devices stock rom without gapps.
Anyway to get a working system I added some changes from CodeAurora Forum and CyanogenMod. There are non-AOSP features also for a better user experience ("Clear All" button in Recents) and other features will not be added.
What is RRO?
RRO (Runtime Resource Overlay) which was designed by google and its modded by our developers to include it into AOSP ROMs.In short,RRO is a Theme Engine replacement and it can do wonders!
Features
AOSP with optimization
Layers
Clear all recents
Optimizations for battery
What's Working:
Everything.....
What's not working:
Nothing, If any do report!

YunOS [ROM][N7100][4.4]

[your warranty is now void]
Hello,
I am not using this forum active but i have run across with this chinese alternative rom which alibaba group make to compete with ios and miui i guess.
Rom 4.4 based (possible aosp based they build their framework on it)
using it for one week, you can remove any app from alibaba (include appmarket but doesnt try service.apk's ) its a good thing i guess.
I am not the developer of the rom, just sharing to get our rom databes and gettin attention to people who wants to try new roms.
has english and chinese language default. but you can activate other languages from morelocale and install fonts with other programs like ifont.
installed opengapps 4.4 pico works great
has own camera ui and i like it
got no bug or problem except opera cant work.
dont forget adding whatsapp etc apps to auto start(or you can lock them on the ram like miui)
750 mb ram using while whatsapp wps mail hello sms and timely locked to ram
400 mb ram using after start.
all apps using their own notification panel as you can swipe up icon to see its notification. they also seen on notification panel as you want.
has free themes and fonts like miui
very flow and has speed,battery friendly. has backup feature to sms' to applications.
has its own security panel to prevent trojans and password protect( when keyboard is active disable the connections immediatly while password screens)
installation instructions
latest twrp recommended
install rom
install gapps
start rom
open playstore and insert google account info
restart and flash supersu.(kingoroot also fine)
I share it because there are more versions for other models but our beloved note 2 stuck at 4.4
