Root ROM request thread

OK so I was doing some searching on YouTube and saw that there is Carbon ROM 5.1.1 now! It would need to be ported of course because I've only found it for the nexus 5 and one plus one so far but it looks like the most feature-rich lollipop ROM yet. From what I saw it has more customization options than CM, PAC, or Dirty Unicorns. If we could get some Carbon Lollipop that would be friggin awesome.
 
Okay so I looked over the thread. While I can't promise that they will be fast, I'd be more than happy to take a stab at one of the requested KK ROMs (alongside BN of course).
 
Dirty unicorns? I've never used it but it sounds cool. I can't do kitkat ROMs. I don't want to downgrade
Dirty unicorns is the 2nd best lollipop ROM I have used (CarbonROM takes 1st place). I have used CM12.1, PACROM5.1.1, Dirty Unicorns5.1.1, and AICP5.1.1(Android Ice Cold Project) on my flo(Nexus7 2013 WiFi) prior to owning my zmax.
Based on the customization options included in these ROMs I would rank them as follows.

Lollipop 5.1.1
1 Carbon ROM
2 Dirty Unicorns
3 Tie between AICP & PAC ROM
4 CM12.1

KitKat 4.4.4
1 Dirty Unicorns
2 Carbon ROM
3 PAC ROM
4 AOKP
5 CM11
 
I would really love a custom kernel for the stock 4.4.4 ROM if anyone wants to take a stab at it.

Would love some more CPU governors as well as voltage control if anyone knows how to code kernels well.
 
I don't think it was ever updated to lollipop

Yeah there was a time when AOKP was the only rom that was truly kanging and just clusterf**king everyone's rom into one, now most of them do that unfortunately.

On another note, @hroark13, you haven't built (or plan to build) Dirty Unicorns have you? I wanted to ask before I downloaded the source and compiled it

no plans
 
So a Dirty Unicorn ROM, eh? Lollipop or KitKat?

I'm leaning towards KitKat, simply because of the massive amounts of tweaks available...

Then again, I hear ext SD works 'correctly' on Lollipop...

I know that there were some custom ROMs that fixed the SD Card issue (or at least enabled it as a tweak)
