[Q] [F2FS] Lego Kernel - what happens with Android L?

I have a Nexus 7 2012 Wifi running OmniRom 4.4.2 with the F2FS Lego Kernel which really improved the performance of my tablet that started slowing down after about a year of use.
My question is will the new version of Android (Android L) be compatible with F2FS? Maybe we wont need F2FS anymore since ART will be the default? Just asking to know if I should revert back to a stock kernel and wait for the Android L release.
Thanks!

I need the 4.4.4 CM11 ROM

I hate Android 5+ so damn much but the CM download page is down for whatever reason (503). Does anyone have a copy of the CM 11 ROM for the USC Galaxy S5?

Here's one for plain KLTE. I just searched cm 11 snapshot klte. Try that for your device.

EDIT: And here is an unofficial build of cm-11 temasek for klteusc.

Thanks, will try them.
I hate most of the new Android versions and my S4 runs happily on 4.4.4. My S5 is running a 6.0.1 version of SlimRom, which is quite awful, but it's better than anything else I tried.
Honestly I'll probably use KitKat until it's officially depreciated by Google.
4.3 has the best customisation support, literally anything can be customized. I had 4.3 on an LG P505 and it was awesome, but 4.4.4 was probably the best version of Android ever released.

Give this a try. Hope it helps.

Is there a problem if I stay in KitKat?

Hi all,
I recently tested my S5 with LolliPop (Stock), Marshmallow (Stock) and Nougat (Custom) and downgraded to KitKat again to see which one has the best performance.
KitKat is running about 2 months smoothly and super fast.
So, I'm just curious about security. It's ok to use it?
Do you know others disadvantages?

Whatever patches were applied to that OS might be the only security you will have until you upgrade. I know one of the biggest problems for me with older OS like that is some apps are not compatible with older versions of android. I know a lot of google apps stop working at 4.2 so you should be ok.

Just curious, how much memory do you have available with KitKat?
e.g. on a 16GB S5 running 6.0.1 Marshmallow, I have 11.3GB available to apps.
Thanks.

reliable custom rom with stable camera and security updates?

Stock based rom has become painfully slow and unresponsive. I installed resurrection remix pie but camera is buggy (slow or crash).
Any reliable custom rom with stable camera? Even older android versions as long as there are security updates

It depends on user preferences. If you have Exynos variant, I would go for Nemesis Refined Rom 3.x.x. if you have Snapdragon, I recommend Norma N7 Port v26 or Nemesis Note 7 port v3. But choose N4 camera in Aroma installer if you want stable camera.

I have snapdragon thx but stock based roms don't have security updates anymore right?

Norma has security update from 1st September 2017. It's UI that matters. You are getting Dream UX for free, which actually works better and smoother than stock Marshmallow ROM. To be honest, I have never seen Android phone being hacked or something, I don't know why people pay so much attention to security updates.

I want to know if someone found an android 4.4 custom rom for nokia 520

Im searching for an android 4.4 custom rom for a nokia 520, because android 6.0.1 is very unstable and android 7.1 very laggy, thinking this nokia has got 512 mb of ram, i think that android 4 is the best option fot this phone.

Android 7.1 works a little bit better than Android 6. There is an Android 4.4 ROM by @thinhx2 but it's more outdated and unstable than latest Android4Lumia LineageOS 13.0/LineageOS 14.1 ROMs.
