Downloaded and gonna install tomorrow!! :)

Quick question though... Does flashing the Preview-Beta also Flash Superuser (and thus Root) to the phone?? of do I have the flash SU and BuisyBox myself??

It includes Koushs superuser (roots too) which they fixed for the preview. Chainfires doesn't work for some reason.

Superuser is there and it's rooted. I'm using it now and restoring my apps with Titanium Backup(can restore user apps and data but don't restore anything to do with system from any 4.x rom).
Pretty sure I read that BusyBox isn't working with L. I might be wrong.
 
Done...

Shame that Facebook's Comments are Transparent, and so useless at the mo!!
 
Thankfully I don't use facebook.

The battery seems to be just fine too about what I was getting with PA KK on here. But I am using franco sabremod custom kernel.

I'm stock (as stock as the Preview is), but I'm on the Farcebork Beta subscription, so hopefully there'll be an update soon!! :)
 
I like Android L but I've gone back to KK as I just can't do without all the features on the custom ROMs.
Seriously can't wait til we get an official release and ROMs start popping up based on it. Or the AOSP version of it at least.
 
I might drop back to KK too... It doesn't seem to want to connect to my Car's Handsfree on Bluetooth, the Phone say's it's connected, but the Handsfree say's there's nothing paired!

Unless there's a 'flashable' fix for this (and the Facebook transparency issue) then it's back the KitKat 4.4.4.
 
Back on KitKat 4.4.4 (Rooted and Stock) until Google Release 'L' (Lesbian Sandwich??) for the Nexus 4 all working and (relatively) bug free!! :)

This is the Bluetooth Screen that seemed to be missing from 'L'

There was no 'Phone Audio' option on the screen!!

That won't happen til we get an official release which probably won't be til the last quarter of this year.
 
Tried 'L' - really liked the look of it, though the mahoosive onscreen keys are a bit unsightly, so I jumped onto the latest 4.4.4 PacMan Rom - but found it a complete battery hog; so I have returned to my new faithful Rom - Purity!

Will try 'L' again at some point, as there were some nice new features that I liked - the download notification on the lock screen being one of them.

Until the next thing comes along that it doesn't work with properly.

True. I haven't had no issues at all though with it. The battery life is insane compared to what it used to be like.

Only app that doesn't work for me is onefootball but that is no biggy. I'm using it as my daily driver now. But I don't rely on bluetooth or facebook.

hi guys, what custom rom do you think would fit me best? I don't need a lot of customisation, and I don't use themes, peek, pie, etc.

Just would need quiet hours, heads up or hover, pin keys rearrangement everytime I turn on the screen...

And I like it fast. Like I said, I don't need a ROM as feature rich as PA... I've tried many roms in the past, last few months I used Mahdi's ROM but he has included a lot of "crap" lately and my phone doesn't feel as fast as it used to... Sometimes it even freezes for a few seconds when answering a call!
