Does rotation work with CM? I really want to be on an AOSP ROM.

Not exactly, like many of the other ROMs it rotates the wrong way. You can "fix" it with a rotation app like Ultimate Rotation Control. Besides that I haven't seen anything wrong with CM though. I haven't tested everything though.

Have you tried the ktoonez kernel with it?
 
Ok well I was curious as there are two versions one AOSP. I was going to try it with Liquid smooth but I could not even get the ROM to flash.

You may need to Odin back to stock, Odin philz touch back on, then flash. That's how I got Liquid Smooth running. Currently running Wicked S5 1.0, upgrading to 2.0 today hopefully if I have time.

Cool man. I am on wicked light. I just hope one day we can run parandroind or a slimrom. Its crazy that this new version is getting no love. The triband has been out for several months now.
 
Well this might sound a bit awkward to ask, but I'm in the L710T boat with all y'all and I've been trying ever since I bought this phone to put any kind of working AOSP based ROM on this thing. I'm well versed with ODIN, rooting and flashing and have been doing homework, but I'm banging my head on finding the right combination of what works.

I see a lot of threads where they say CM 11 M10 works, but I don't know which kernel works etc. Can someone tell me what combination would work on the L710T that's AOSP based? I have a Boost Mobile variant so I already know about the APN fix. I've tried flashing the kt747 kernel (a couple different versions) and even after a factory reset it still boot loops. I either use the extremely slow and bloated stock TW ROM that's slow and a battery hog or the very fast and snappy CM11 with GPS problems and the notorious rotation issue. I would love to donate if I could find a solution!!

Thanks guys

I'm happy and thankful for all the work all of you have put into this phone!

Does the camera (pics and videos) and gps work on CM for the L710T?

Not on lollipop you'll need to use snap camera, some use open camera.Video does not work.The cm11 that works for us yes the camera works.GPS pins me exactly where I'm at.

What version of cm11? I tried the 02/10 snapshot version with both snap cam and open cam and couldn't get it to work. I always got a message that said something like "could not connect to camera". Do we have to flash a different kernel to get it to work?
 
Has anyone tried out Vanir or Exodus on this T model? I'll work on getting the list updated this weekend in the OP. Really appreciate everyone pulling together and finding ROMs and fixes that work for us!
 
Apparently my search-fu sucks. Can someone provide links to the adaptive rotation apk and the APN fixes? Since there are so many references to these, it would be nice if the links were in the OP as well. Thanks in advance.
