Root Any real alternatives to CM11S?

I know you can get the CM camera from the Play Store, but most ROMs are still lacking a lot of 11S features that I like, like gestures when the screen is off and the off-screen capacitive buttons.

Are there any ROMs that include these features?

Every ROM I have tried have had those functions. SlimKat, 2 different Sabermodded Roms, Dirty Unicorns, Becon, PAC-ROM, Hesisenberg will have it fixed in the next update, Bliss Stalk and many, many more.

I've been using Mahdi ROM since testing most of the other ROMs and ended up staying with Mahdi ROM. Great ROM with great support. Yet it will come to the users preference and what are they looking on a ROM and what kind of features they prefer.

Hasn't the developer stated he is no longer updating that rom? Hopefully he creates a lollipop rom.

Just out of curiosity - if CM has the features you like, why are you looking to switch?

Well the ROM as it is, is a great ROM in my opinion, haven't had no problems whatsoever with it and the battery life it's superb. Now the thing is that with lollipop out, although developers will continue to support their Kit Kat ROMs the focus will turned more toward 5.0, at least that's what I've seen in the past when the new Android version shows up. Also I've read that developers of Mahdi ROM are working on Lollipop for the Nexus 5 and for the OnePlus One as well, but there's no time table for it, also it supposed to have a different name Euphoria ROM, if I'm not mistaking. The good thing is that sooner or later we'll have Lollipop on our great phone OnePlus One because of the great support that the phone has thanks to the awesome developers and community from the OnePlus One.

I saw that their final build was about 2 weeks ago. I've heard a ton of positive reviews about it, just not my flavor so to speak. As Cafe pointed out there are some lollipops already built. I'm waiting for them to mature a little bit before I grab one. Carbon got their up very quickly

Yes I'm aware of all the build from lollipop, I'm also in the wait, I'm always checking the OnePlus One forum as well as XDA. I like carbon as well, I have that one on my Sero Pro 7 and works great.
