Great Rom! So far so good. Don't know if you mind but since you are using Sony Walkman music player I ran across a nice little Beats audio/Xloud mod that works really good on this rom. I've been using it since last night and it really makes the audio sound sound hella good. It adds more clarity to overall sound as well as Dolby headset and Dolby speaker option. Its a flashable aroma install zip. For those that want to flash it it will ask if you have ASOP rom installed Sony Xperia S ect. Iv'e Chosen one or the other on 2 different occasions and it appears to install the same with either of the 2 options. Also there's an option to install DPS manager v3 I chose to not install dps manager and just installed the other 2 options related to sound quality ect. Use volume up and down and power button to select options and apply options chosen. After install its recommended to wipe dalvik cache and then reboot. Upon reboot phone will update and you should see beats audio as well Dolby Speaker Icon on phone. This doesn't effect siyahs kernel tweaks or dps manager it just increases clarity in volume and bass. At least for me it really seems to improve audio clarity. I've attached a dropbox link to the zip. Hope dev doesnt mind me sharing. I take no credit for this mod! Cheers!:eek:

I wanted to say thanks to the Dev for bringing this great ROM over from the S2. This was one of my fav's. I have had zero issues up to this point. Did full wipe, Dalvic, and flash. Flawless. The animated drop down works great (i quite like that feature). I did actually notice one thing upon install. I was pretty sure i had excluded a couple bloat-ware items on the install and they turned up installed. I'm not 100% certain that I excluded them so I thought I would throw that out there, as I had seen someone else mention it earlier in the thread. Other then that, which is 2 more minutes on the titanium backup I give this Dev, and release 2 thumbs up. Excellent work EH!

thanks for the kind words, nice to see a fellow former s2 user!!

I have re-checked the aroma script, it all looks ok to ...it will defo be 100% for 7.5

I'll give it a test and let you know. I'm loving the Walkman player. I found the Visualizer Mod also and its an absolutely beautiful visual display as the music plays. If anyone wants it I can upload it. Cheers!

Hey! Great rom man!

I went thru 4 or so before settling on this one, and so far so good. My fave feature is the toggles... shows more than 5!

One issue ive noticed - after the battery is charged, and you disconnect the cable, the icon on the left wont go away. Anyway to disable this? Not a big deal I suppose, but would be nice to have fixed.
Other than that, great work.

And a general question... Does the slide to change brightness not working anymore?

I dont mod kernels, so you would have to ask in the relevant kernel thread

    Too crowded in here, too many aosp roms, too many fanboys

    Im done, its been a nightmare all the way through
    Unless you release an update every couple of days, people arent interested - thats not what rom building is about imo
    I guess ultimarom is the one for you lot now, its based on my work anyway
    See ya around the forums

    Thanks to all the relevant people, you know who you are
