I've been lurking this thread ever since it opened.

I honestly don't see it getting ported any time soon. Don't have full source yet. Also it is very buggy. Apps keep crashing, as well the os crashes too 😭

That's unfortunate. :( I'm sure they'll find a way to fix all of this, since the reason behind the release was for developers to find bugs and other things related.

No OS crash till now, all Apps I'm using are running smooth and even faster then in 4.4.

I really like Android L, also battery life has improved a lot.

Hopefully we see another update soon, I can't wait for more features.

Same, 0 OS crashes for me but some apps crash. BaconReader is the app that crashes most, it won't work at all. It doesn't work on iOS 8 Beta either so I think the Devs just ignore Beta users :(

Also, secondary profiles are completely borked, don't even try them. Half the styling is still in 4.4 format so it bugs out a shitton.

ALL I WANT IS XPOSED FOR ART,

Yeah they should release some updates with all the fixes soon enough. App developers should update their apps for Android L, but overall the keyboard typing and the stability of the OS is better then in 4.4 and a lot smoother!

Thank you two for posting some updates and feedback for Android L. Last I heard, Xposed is still being worked on in the Android Reddit, but it's being worked on quick.

I'm liking all I have seen of the Android L, may convince me to migrate from iOS.

I've been working on getting this ported to D2LTE, but I'm having a few issues at the moment.

Samsung devices are annoying because there are so many models for devs to work on. If you're just doing it for yourself then it ain't as bad but there's like 10 different S3 models and all have reasonable differences >.>

Too bad we won't see Xposed for ART until ART is completed :P

Or until Android L is fully completed. Whichever comes later.

Yup, the Dev has semi stable builds and is testing it on L but he only has one L supported device which is his daily driver phone so he doesn't like being on L for prolonged periods of time.

I just noticed that it's almost been a month and there's been no sign of L being ported to the S4. -sigh-

I guess I'll just have to leave the thread and pay attention to it when it comes Fall 2014 again...

If I port to D2LTE, then I'm porting to the S3 American line which is fine.

Hell yeah I be jelly. I've been waiting for floating notifications for a long time. And I love the new Android L UI.
