IT'S ALMOST THERE...
Found newer GApps for PACEPLUS 4.4.1
Downloaded and copied new GApps listed below to phone.
12-6_GApps_Standard_4.4.1_signed.zip | by BaNkS for Generic Device
Did full wipe of data, cache, and dalvik cache.
Flashed paceplus44-vs920-1.0.rc2b.zip.
Flashed 12-6_GApps_Standard_4.4.1_signed.zip.
NO NEED TO FLASH SUPERUSER.ZIP as SuperSU is included in the ROM.
I like this GApps because since I deselected to restore from my Google Backup then I was able to select to install only the Google and Google Play apps I want. They didn't all install by default.
4G starts right up on first boot.
No Hangouts error and Hangouts comes up fine.
SD Card reads and writes fine.
Settings menu in Gallery displays properly.
SuperSU updated automatically after setup.
Verizon Mobile app works without installing an extra apk file as was needed with CM 10.x.
Cons:
Still having problem with displaying videos in YouTube.
Still having issues with 3rd party apps that use the camera (ex. Barcode Scanner, Camera Zoom FX, Skype, etc.). Apps lock up and just display lines and waves on screen.
Aside from that this ROM seems fairly stable so far. Will keep posting on any other issues I encounter.
