Oh Yes

Great work to bring up this rom brother. I am on locked bootloader and hell yes was waiting for this. Thank you for making my sola alive. I will giv it a try once you remove all the bugs and i want you to remove them pretty quick(cant wait to use ur rom). Few suggestions,
0*) Remove all bugs on top priority
1) Add tweaks.
2) Add new gpu drivers (i dont know if that is possible but I had heard that new drivers by mali400 are launched).
3) Optimize battery.
4) Fast / Clean and awesome RAM Management!
Try to include these too:
- Supercharger
- Adrenaline Engine
- Fly on the mod
- Data tweaks
- Battery tweaks
- Wifi tweaks
- Mali400
- Gaming tweaks
- Launcher tweaks
I hope its a lag free rom.
Overall Some excellent stuff when every body is working on JB.
Thumbs up

Waiting for Download Link for Locked Bootloader

Upload it quick brother

Hey bro, try to disable "xloud" I think it'll fix this bug if I have a good memory, i've installed it yesterday (now i'm using jelly bean) and I had this bug and when I've disabled xloud the speaker became louder (and again I'm not really sure about this :p)

But I have a question, what's up with free RAM and battery life?

Trendous ROM

Bro thats One of the smoothest ROM on locked boot-loader. I am impressed. Home screen issue can be resolved by manually adding apps on home screen. One thing bro. What i did was in the aroma installer I selected almost all apps to remove but when the ROM was installed, All the bloatware was there. Is that an issue in AROMA or something else ? Everything is good still with all stock apps, its a great rom. Battery life is decent but can be improved with battery tweaks. Can't find any other bugs of constantly using it for 5 hours. Tremendous work. I hope the next update with be fine tuned and bug free. Thumbs up
