This is a modified stock ROM for
ZTE Awe

Developed on an unactivated N800, this ROM is made to how I think a ROM should be made.

A few warnings:
  • This does not include a custom kernel (anyone who thought it would, go do something dangerous that I'm prolly not allowed to tell you to do)
  • This is NOT a feature-centric rom. Its more for simplicity, speed (while maintaining stock kernel, and overall stability.
  • Still Odexed....if you don't understand why I didn't "de-odex", look up the differences. You'll understand :D
  • Feature requests will be handled on a case-by-case basis
Now on to the good stuff:
  • Google Play edition boot animation
  • Kitkat sounds (I HATED the stock sounds)
  • Kitkat Wallpaper Default
  • More Live Wallpapers
  • Removed Stock Launcher and its wallapapers, replaced with SickSky and Chromium Wallpaper Picker
  • Removed much of Google Apps (can be downloaded from Play Store)
  • Updated Gapps I left in
  • Removed Stock Browser, included Lightning Browser (faster)
  • Removed Stock Camera, included 4.3 Camera
  • Added NextApp Keyboard, removed all others
  • ADB on boot
  • ROM appears unrooted but it is, just no superuser managing app preinstalled (so install SuperSU or Superuser, YOUR CHOICE)

Bugs:
Camera's post capture edit function is broken (FC's camera app)
Camera doesn't open from lockscreen (key does still work though)
First boot, Play Store will not display apps, reboot fixes issue (if not, wipe Play Store cache and reboot)
Hangouts crashes on first boot. Reboot and it'll be fine

Other notes:
First boot will be slow, afterwards it should boot in under 10 seconds :D
 
..Been trying to dload this but when I press the 'show' button for the link its says 'uploading' am I doing something wrong ? This rom sounds exciting, Ive had every one for zte awe so far I believe.

I flashed this just like i do any other rom and now i cant get the phone to boot. i try to factory reset then it reboots as soon as it gets to /data but it wont boot past the boot animation

Here is what you need to do. Go to the mounts menu, select "format /data and /data/media"
There is something finicky with zte and /data/media(fake internal sdcard), and the way cwm formats /data while ignoring /data/media
