SwiftKey autocorrect fail

It is highly usable, Antares' rom has issues with Bluetooth headsets, and this one feels equally snappy. Also, I find this one to have a very responsive ambient light sensor, it quickly ramps up to make the display usable outdoors.

It feels pretty stable. Haven't found any bugs so far. However, my battery is draining pretty fast.

Does this has the bluetooth issues?

That's normal for the Galaxy S4

Once I add my custom kernel it should improve

It's by far the most stable source built Lollipop ROM I've ever seen

Frosted Kernel? It works with the TMo S4? Got one and Frosted looks very interesting with all the variants.
Does it work with the TMo Note 2 also?

aliraza_369 · Apr 20, 2015

So far everything is working fine. But only one issue, ambient screen does not works most of the times.

No, not Frosted. That's for HTC Devices. It's called Cake Kernel and I have yet to release it. I have yet to finish it. It'll have a lot of stuff in it.

That's odd because it's working for me
