right, but how is he going to know what's wrong with the ROM if no one can report what they're having problems with?

OK I've found a couple things that I noticed didn't quite work for me....1. I enabled expanded desktop into my power setting and when I click to enable, it just takes me back to my settings where I can add expanded desktop to power settings. And also won't expand. 2. On the tile and layout settings. I tried adding a couple tiles and moved a few around. Then when I back out of it and bring down quick settings, my added tiles are gone and rearranged back to how it was. That's what I noticed so far.

having the same issue with the expanded desktop as well. when i hold the power button down for the notifications and click expanded notification it doesn't do anything just takes me back to the homescreen. i did reboot it after i clicked it and it was in expanded notification so idk ha. smooth rom so far thou.

did notice with a couple themes i have on there that when i try to apply it, it just says theme was not properly compiled and won't let me use it. any ideas?

I can't get the lock screen to show anything other than Celsius. No matter if metric is checked or not.

this is official nightly. If you check the mods @ OP, none is meant to mess with wifi or system main functions. The only reason I can think off is probably the build.prop tweaks. Though these tweaks work great on GSM version, maybe they don't do good on US? Try to remove the "BETTER NET SPEEDs" tweaks from build.prop and report back. Also you can change the value of the following line to a smaller, like 180

wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=300

Anyway, common sense, the way this rom is modded, tells that you shouldn't have this kind of troubles. GSM version works excellent with absolutely no problems reported. I also modded the toro and toroplus version from scratch. I just find it weird for you having issues, since this rom is mostly theming!

I changed kernel to fix my wifi. Good now.

I hope you guys know that kernels are not carrier- model specific. Galaxy nexus kernels are for all variants of the galaxy nexus phone a.k.a tuna

I was trying this for a friend with the maguro... needed to fix permissions for WiFi and auto-brightness to work, overall issues with toggles and other minor tiles not working properly... Also, don't know why but flashing AK's Dummy caused a hang @ the AK boot logo and I had to reflash to get back.

first want to thank you for bringing this rom to the verizon nexus, love how smooth it is and that everything is blacked out.
i too am having issues with the brightness tiles/widgets and random tiles on the pull down.
i have tried to wipe cache and fix permissions, but the brightness control on the power widget doesnt work. also tried brightness widget from Beautiful Widgets and that too did not work.
as far as the tiles on the pull down, i will delete or re-arrange the tiles and it wont save the changes i have made.
no picking at all just want to give feedback that might help
thank you again for your work!!

It is probably the cm build. Wait for next update and see what happens. Does other users report such problems on official nightly thread?

Yep same here as well. Pretty much almost everything or anything I change won't stick or even show that I added it. None of the toggles show up when I add them. I've cleared cache fixed permissions as well. But here as well, just pointing it out for help is all.

i agree with you it is likely something going on with the nightly build. sorry i cannot answer if the "stock" nightly is having the same issue or not. i havent tried CM 10.1 as of yet and havent reviewed any of the issues related to the builds. i def look forward to when they release a milestone/stable build and then get your work on top of it!! thank you again for bringing us some Pitchblack goodness!!

    General Info:
    a. PitchBlack will try to update once a week so you can have all the latest CyanogenMod sources merged in
    b. Each release promises latest versions of all mods and apps (if any)

    Theming Info:
    a. PitchBlack is mainly themed by Thyrus Black CM10 Theme without the UI parts and some elements changed by me
    b. UI has been themed seperately. Framework has also some elements themed seperately from Thyrus Theme
    c. Updating Thyrus Theme from Play Store will result in some visual components being changed...
    d. ..so don't update the theme yourself, let me do it in order to adapt changes in PitchBlack standards

    Apps Info:
    a. If Google Music gets updated via the Play Store, will still stay black thanks to Thyrus Theme
    b. Gmail, YouTube and Store will loose black theming if they get updated, so wait for new black versions
    c. Gmail and YouTube are not showing in Store. It's normal. Maybe you'll need to manually unistall them before updating to newer versions in the future

    Thunderbolt! Script Info:
    For the scripts to work properly the following must be done
    a. Open up Script Manager and launch /etc/bolt_scripts/sqlite_optimize as Root (The skull icon). This script can be used arbitrarily at anytime that you want. Don't load it as boot or copy it to init.d though, it'll significantly slow down your boot up as the script is a very long running script. Press save and run the script.
    b. Open up Script Manager and launch /etc/bolt_scripts/s70darky_zipalign as Root (The skull icon). This script can be used arbitrarily at anytime that you want. You can copy it to init.d and setting its permission to rwx-rwx-rwx. I moved it to bolt_scripts so that first boot for some people won't be slowed down. Press save and run the script

    Installing PitchBlack For The First Time
    After completing setup for the first time and finished setting up your Google Account the following will occur
    a. A triangle will appear on status bar. Open notification drawer and click on it. It will ask you for a permission in order for Gmail to sync. Click on it
    b. Go to Settings/Accounts/Google and press your account. Untick and tick Gmail. Gmail now syncs properly. You need to do this only once!

    Configuring PIE
    PIE is controlled via the LMT app. Play around with the settings. It's highly customisable! Sometimes it comes handy. Good to use when expanded desktop is on

    What is OVERDRIVE HEART ?
    OVERDRIVE HEART is a combo of kernel, scripts and .prop Tweaks. It includes franco kernel, thundebolt! scripts and various build.prop tweaks that were first used in my OVERDRIVE ROM. This was the heart and soul of this rom and works really nice. So I decided to use that in PitchBlack also!

    Hope you haven't given up on this...

    Nice rom, but unable to connect to wifi. Tried changing to another kernel, but can't get past Google screen.

    OK to make this clear. This ROM, concerning basic system functionality, is pure cyanogenmod. I have not done any mods in order to affect such system functions. So no way in the world this may occur. Others reporting rom runs supwr well. Please try some workarounds before reporting bugs that simply do not exist

    Peace,
    John
