Hello!
We’re finishing pure AOSP KitKat project for our devices. But it will be a bit different than other ROMs published on Maclaw.pl.
We will take even more care about AOSP. We really want to give you stable, pure KitKat without all CM/AOKP/PAC etc. features (and without their issues). AOSP will be daily of course and probably pushed for all devices in the same time (without any delay between devices like as we do it with CM11.0)
First we will start with dailies for S3 Mini (maintainers: Macław/marcin1147) and Ace II (maintainer: jereksel). Few (I guess 2-3) days later we plan to start S Advance dailies (maintainer: Macław) and then we will try to make as much as possible pure AOSP for Gio/Ace (yes, we didn’t forget about you!).
If you have any constructive questions or suggestions, share them with us in commnets to this post. Will try to answer for them tonight.
Regards,
Macław

Maclaw..and your team…you’re the best!! Thanks for all the work you do 😉
sorry for the bad english..i’m italian 😀

Hi, when do you start to give us our first AOSP ROM please ?
Will this project be Opensource for S3mini? Yes, I know, we had this discussion bit time ago, but has something changed? I think it would be a nice start to become full opensource 🙂
Macław/marcin1147 thanks!!. will there be the feature to install apps to microsd?
+1
Awesome! When can we spect the first release? I’m willing to give it a try…
+1 🙂
I’ve been waiting for this release and it is finally coming!!! Thanks to Maclaw and the team, keep up the good work guys!!!
yeah, cool. i guess all we need is no rotation glitch 🙂
Right now I’ve got CM11 20140216 already installed, but the back and menu buttons are crazy!! they’re working when they want to… what should I do? please help 🙁
I have the same problem. It wont stay out.
I think your soft buttons are broken, because i have a friend with the same phone on stock and that capacitative buttons are killing him
Wowww… great maclaw.. its amazing.. 😀
i’m ready to be a tester..
When can we get the first release?
Great!
Very GREAT, but which version it will approach it? CM11? Carbon? Chameleon? AOKP?
As Maclaw said, it is supposed to be a true AOKP, the cleanest android you can get, even without some of the original one features
Awesome!!
Greeeeeeat! I’m really looking forward for AOSP for S Advance 😀
+1
Amazing! Is it going to be released today? :))))
Please, today!
Hell Yeah!!! thanks guys!!!
has to be more stable and less heavy
Since they’re testing, at least the first releases won’t be very stable, is almost (almost) a norm in every piece of software. Lighter, it will be, for sure, since many of the features that make other roms heavier will not be present. However we should all realize that MANY of the custom features we love about CM/AOKP/Carbon/XRom won’t be available either.
Awesome! Go head guys.
Finally Maclaw ROM is coming.
Xperia U? 🙁
Amazing!! I hope you could build a good version for the I8190N!!
Great work
Thank you maclaw! I bet this will be awesome! This will be the real upgrade for our devices!
i’m sorry sir. will AOSP release today?
ok, one question, what is AOSP?
Android Open Source Project directly from Google.
It is the main project for all ROM in the world.
https://source.android.com/
Android Open Source Project. Basically the new ROM will be built using the source files from google/android.
The pure “Android Open Source Project”
Android is an open-source software stack for a wide range of mobile devices and a corresponding open-source project led by Google. Here you can find the information and source code you need to learn more about the Android platform. From there you can create custom variants of the Android software stack, port devices and accessories to the Android platform, and ensure your devices are compatible with the Android compatibility definition.
https://source.android.com
AOSP=Android Open Source Project.
It is a pure ROM, I mean, a ROM directly from Google source, with no addons.
It is the ROM you can find in the Google Nexus phones.
ANDROID OPEN SOURCE PROJECT… Let’s say it is Android as is, vanilla Android
Lol, use uncle Google 😛
https://source.android.com/
It means Android Open Source Project.
When you see an AOSP ROM, it means its as basic as it gets. No Sense, no nothing. It runs generally faster than a sense based ROM.
Android Open Source Project
it’s just kitkat without any extras, the simplest barest plainest as possible
Android Open Source Project http://source.android.com/
Hi, thanks to everybody who replied to my post about AOSP, I understand it a bit more now. I just hope that sometime soon we are going to NFC support that would make it even more incredible.
If your Smartphone doesn’t have NFC infrastructure, the newest ROM ever made couldn’t do nothing…
Yeh, it does, its a 18190N been waiting for them to add it. it appeared for about a couple of hours a while back, then disappeared again. That was a disappointment.
An original roms that have a very pure function…Just google it John M…its really easy dude..
Android Open Source Project. Pure Android
android open source project.
I tried to answer but my post wasn’t approved. I posted a link to the information you’re asking for. Google it please…
Thank you very much! This is the surprise! I’ll undoubtedly try!
Great, kitkat for GIO AOSP would be real great
Excelente noticia!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s possible to use xposed?
Yup
And GravityBix KitKat too
yes
please, enter paranoid or dirty unicorns. thanks
Thank you Maclaw & good luck on this project.
for me I have a strong faith in Cyanogenmod, i won’t replace it 😀
Thanks guys! Really great news!
I’m up for testing this.
Oooo its coool thank Maclaw!!!!
please add touchwiz to a3 mini

i wish there there will be no rotation glitch
excellent
The rotation glitch is a pain in the..
but as i’ve not learnt how to program for Android yet i’m keeping quiet 😉
U are not being quiet. HE HAS BRPUGHT LIFE TO PHONES ABANDONED BY THEIR MANUFACTERS.THEN THERE ARE PPL LIKE U WHO COMPLAIN.IF U HAVE A PROB REPORT IT IN BUG TRACKER.
And another questions, will be the battery longer than the Custom Rom?if yes its very cool
+1
Yes, we all want battery longer on our devices.
Android Open Source Project
Looking forward to try this :]
Omfg i came
Now this is what I been waiting for and wanted to hear All this time can’t wait to test it
Will it look like an official ROM?I mean the Boot & charging animation etc.
Are you guys using the original u8500 STE released sources?
Great news .. Big surprise ..pure ”MACLAW ROM” lookig forward to intall this rom . i am sure this project gonna success.
Panowie wstawcie jakieś fotki z waszego miejsca pracy nad Androidem bo nie chce mi się wierzyć że Wy to wszystko w trzy osoby ogarniacie 😉 Pozdrawiam gorąco i powodzenia z nowymi wersjami 🙂
This is what we’ve been waiting for..even without CM,AOKP,Carbon or other roms functionality but everybody are eager to try AOSP. Thank you for hard work maclaw and marcin1147! I knew someday this will become true… T.T
Will you include Goolge Apps by default?
Personally I would appreciate a battery life improvement and please keep it small without bloatware.
resurrection remix for s3 mini plz…… 🙁
So Great !
I have a question : is it possible to directly implement Blacklight Notification in this rom ?
Sorry if it’s a stupid question.
It’s not a stupid question, but, given the ROM is not available, the better question is to know when it will available, lol.
This means twitchtv and other streamings will work on this? no more 1Ghz bug?
Up for testing!
It will NFC support? 🙂
and Xperia U ? 🙁
Very good choice, I prefer stability over new features. Are the sources from Google directly?
Then, will we get the purest AOSP for all our devices?
Will it fix the most of the problems that we are having (rotation glitch, camera doesn’t work…)?
Will the OTA-Updates work but with your ported ROMs?
Thanks for the work that you are doing for our forgotten devices.
Personally I don’t specially estimate putting important apps and system on external SD card, but for some people it might be interesting using inverted storage for Ace/Gio. I don’t know if it is possible for these phones, but I know that for Asus Transformer TF101 it works.
That’s Great.
Please FIX the OFFLINE CHARGING issue,can’t turn on the device while it’s charging offline.
Great ! 😀
When do you will release the first build ? 🙂
Thanks.

thank for not forgetting ace/gio… :’)
What I want to know is when will it be released? And will we can do OTA update?
they is new release of ASOP came out today.. is this the first project by them? let me know if your guys installed it
Will we be able to go directly from cm11 to this ROM?
Waiting for the S Advance!!
I am really glad to know that you will provide us good AOSP. I was planning to buy a new device but if AOSP come on Ace/Gio I will keep my Ace longer.Thanks Maclaw team for your work.
this was the surprise?
Not too shabby.
Will Apple’s http Live Streaming work in Chrome? It doesn’t work with your CM11 on my Ace II. But it worked on stock Jelly Bean ROM.
Please create one firmware for Samsung Galaxy S Advance NFC (GT-i9070P). Very well, thank you for Android 4.4.2))
Native screen recording feature. That actually works. PLEASE
I would love to see a paranoid android release.
Good….now AOSP are coming..
is Fully compatible with GravityBox?
super!!!!!
Its not bad to have aosp fully working, but i think you should focus on Cyanogenmod, because it has more features than plain Android, and also it has way better support from community. And cm custom things like the electronbeam animation, integrated apps from cm, and so are working just right! Maybe a Paranoid Android release
You are the best thanx for everithing tthe rom with kit kat have a issue with the alarm when activate the clock is stop and ever arrive later to the school
This sounds like the best solution given the inherit bugs that port with other roms.
but it won’t have all the features, I’m even thinking this ain’t gonna be pre rooted. We’ll need to install gravity box and stuff like that in order to customize it. We’ll see how this turns out.
Or you could just install the xposed framework
Shame…only this?
can you make a ROM for us sir?
am i talkin’ to you?
stay with simple roms, if you like them, some of us are not, ALLRIGHT?
I hope to see you release your ROM soon. Make it! I’m waiting.
am i talking to you, too?
is your room ready xoen?
woww…great news AOSP for S Advance it will be awesome
Awesome! Waiting to see bug-free ROM for S3 mini…
Thanks and good luck!
Do not forget to swap memory …
Excellent news!

Great news! Waiting for S Advance 🙂
Any chance to implement OTA Updater or something easy to use every time when new build is out?
Great news! Waiting for ace 🙂
Did I read somewhere that MacLaw say they care not adding support for NFC?
you are so awesome guys cant wait for pure clean android as it should be i had many android devices but never met developer that produce as high quality roms as you and for so many devices realy amazing
thank you for not forgetting about us! (Gio users)
hey maclaw team 🙂 the paranoid android rom (4.2.2) download link for galaxy ace is broken, mind fixing it? thx 🙂
Thanks in advance…
release date?
Can anything of this ROMs be flashed on Wildfire S (marvel)?
Personally, I don’t need the latest build – 4.2.2 will make use nicely too 🙂
I’m totally waiting for an AOSP rom, cyanogenmod is great but I do prefer a clean andriod rom and of course bug free. I just reverted back to stock rom from cyanogenmod 10.2 due to battery drain issues. This is a great news and thanks again Mr. MC and your team…

when will this AOSP roms starts?
Based on past experiences, it takes them at least a month from the day of announcement to get the first release, at least for Ace an Gio…

Hello, I’m using CM10.1.2 (Gio / 20130908) which is technically okay but leaves only small free memory for apps. I wonder if Kitkat provides a smaller memory footprint for Android itself, so I could use more RAM for other things.
Any experience anyone?
You need to use the Cronmod int2ext scripts 😀 it works really good, if you need help you can mail me (DUTCH OR ENGLISH :D)
I just saw on xda that all your threads for the s3 mini have been closed.
Looking forward to 4.4 for Gio, too!
With documentation for that BCM21553 (e.g. Samsung Ace) being published by Broadcom and drivers now being in development, I hope to see improved support for this device. Maybe this brings current kernel versions a little bit closer to reality?
Yes! Hope somebody take that info into account… If only I knew code…
tell me when it will have on the galaxy?
THX GUYS. U ROCK!!!
Could u mention the relelase date for the rom.
THX AGAIN
what happened with this proyect?
30 days now and still waiting… Apparently easier said than done…

Of course we know that team are very busy, but if You say “A” tell “B”. In the meantime there were several versions of CM for another devices…like S3 mini…
Yesss first in first out!
Is a month from the first announcment
+9999
Do you know the release date? 😀 You guys are doing a VERY GREAT JOB! Maclaw and your team you guys are legends!
so…ace releases are still dead..just s3mini releases:(
I guess it’s safe to assume support for Ace is over… 🙁
Yess, tell A, tell B, no reply to the release date…it’s a shame ;(
When you are not able to release this version , when why giving false information.
Anything about this, guys?
Would be just great to have this
I’m quite sure that this project is over. If not, please, consider letting us know, here or at xda.
And thanks for all your support and work with awesome roms!
