Xperia Z/Tablet Z: Cyanogenmod 11.0 – Fidelity Edition build 20140207

Cheers to the first KitKat ROM I officially released. It took me 3 months for stable transition from CM10.2 having the following updates below.

-Most Linaro strict aliasing fixes are actual fixes not spamming fno-strict-aliasing
-Added bionic/framework optimizations from Slimsaber’s Linaro commits
-Updated compiler flag optimizations from SaberMod tweaks
-Updated MEOW-Kernel from latest commit
-Updated Linaro toolchain to version 2014.01
-Changed toolchain version back to 4.7 since 4.8 is yet to be stable
-Removed kernel’s strict-aliasing optimizations to fix unstable cellular network
-Fidelity optimizations re-configured for CM11 compatibilities with changes below
|-Increased default buffer size to 4096 to fix stuttering problem
|-Removed start threshold in HAL layer
|-Default sampling rate is set to 44100Hz
|-Reduce number of periods in kernel configuration

Truth be told, I think CM10.2 is more stable than this but right now CM11 is stable enough to use as daily driver with some fixes. I’ll update Fidelity patch sometimes later with ART support and fix some bugs.

Features:
-jeroenqui’s Meow Kernel
-TWRP 2.7 Recovery
-Changed audio priority level to highest possible
-Compiled using latest Linaro arm/Linux Toolchain 4.7 and its own NDK
-Compiled with Linaro’s customized O3 optimizations with strict aliasing for both ROM and kernel (no strict-aliasing for kernel for now)
-Most strict-aliasing fixes are actual fixes from SlimSaber and my own
-Added bionic/framework optimizations from Linaro commits
-Fidelity Driver optimizations having
|-Added board audio optimizations for low latency/fluence/separated audio
|-Increased default buffer size to 4096 to fix stuttering problem
|-Removed start threshold in HAL layer
|-Default sampling rate is set to 44100Hz
|-Reduce number of periods in kernel configuration

This ROM doesn’t come with Google apps so flash it after this ROM if you intend to use them. Using Fidelity Z 6.0 with this ROM is highly recommended but ART is not working with Fidelity Z 6.0 right now so please don’t use ART until I release Fidelity Z 7.0.
