Will it still have aosp contacts?
I highly recommend the GO Contacts EX app with the "Blue Steel" theme (both are FREE, and it includes a great dialer!).

Seriously, the functionality and looks blow away every other version of contacts/dialer I've seen, even aosp... ;)

Does the GO Contacts fix the receiving calls issue?

Yes sir. If you could PM me the different FCs you are having, I will test those with new Beta

I'm not sure if this has been reported as a bug but when the phone fc's it kills the data signal. When this happens it may or may not come back. I also am not able to receive any txt and incoming calls are intermittent mostly not able to receive. This rom seems very smooth and I love the AOSP integration. Thanks alot for your hard work!

So your receiving calls from everybody using go contacts ex?
I can't test that as I am back on GB awaiting your beta2. Sorry! :(

It should be easy enough for you to test since it's free? My guess is that it would have no effect since the stock dialer/contacts are still installed, but you could always try it with those completely removed as a temporary workaround...? I dunno...

Nice! And I still dont see why people would go back to GB. I wouldnt go back even if I was paid.
I've just been doing so during the week, and then going ICS flash-crazy every weekend. Once I feel a tiny bit more comfortable with an ICS daily driver, and this beta1 came damn close, I'll stick around for good! ;)

Check this out. Getting closer and closer to rocking full tablet mode on our Notes. I've been quietly working on this for future version. Figured I'd post a shot

Lookin good - did you figure out how to solve the missing navigation dock/notification panel doohickey? There's a hefty bounty out there for this, you may want to get a piece of that if possible!

P4S. I will be a sliding a nice donation your way when I get home because, despite the fc issues that you're working out, this has been the wonderful start to the gb experience that I have been looking forward to. I'm right there along with everyone else anxiously anticipating your improvements and really appreciate the work man. Loving your work and the level of communication with the following. Nohomo.. Lol.. Thanks man.

    NOTEWorthy BETA

    **Here is a Video of BETA v1.0 thanks to JmaHaffey-
    http://youtu.be/HWpCRNwmM20

    Also, I will fancy up this post once I get things going because right now its looking terrrrrrribllleee LOL!

    This ROM is deodexed, zip aligned, rooted, debloated, and based on UCLC5. When I say debloated, I'm saying that I removed what I figured to be bloat. This is considered beta because I'm not completely done with everything but my overall GOAL is to remove as much Samsung and AT&T crap as I can from this ROM and replace it with AOSP. Will get there one day. Just be patient

    MOD Notice

    The behaviour of some here is outright childish, this is a development section not a kindergarten. If you have nothing sensible to add to the development of this ROM, then dont post! I have cleaned some of the troll posts and the responses, dont feed the trolls, just report to the moderation team! Lets keep it on topic from now!

    And stop demanding a ETA, its ready when its ready. Doing so just annoys the devs, just appreciate there work!​

    OP updated with link. Enjoy and post feedback. Might have few FCs at first as ROM settles in. If you have any problems, never forget to give it a reboot. Messaging app FC at beginning of each boot is normal and will get fixed when I get a chance
