FAQ:
1. When will the bugs be fixed?

-- We are trying our best to fix the bugs present and we hope to do so ASAP.

2. How often will you provide updates?

-- I'll try to provide as soon as possible but due to studies the updates may take some time

3. How can I help you?

-- Try to post more of logcats of errors and submit patches If you really like it consider donating TeamBlueRidge( @kalaker @insink71 @simonsimons34 )(check my signature) as they supported me a lot for this.

4. Which gApps to use?

-- I recommend these- http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2012857

5. Why is the proximity sensor on all the time?

-- Its a feature of carbon known as pocket mode. It doesn't take much battery but still if you want you can turn it off by going to Settings->Carbon Fibres->Lock Screen-> Notifications and uncheck pocket mode.

6. How to access developer options?

-- Go to About Phone in settings and tap Build Number 8-10 times.

7. Why is this feature of Carbon Fibers not working?

-- Carbon fibers are still being ported to 4.4 so may not work properly.

8. Is HALO present in the ROM?

-- Not for now but its being ported to it

Hi!

My solution is I installed the Walkman mod to the rom but the sound is being hell laggy and strange for a second when I press anything except the physical buttons and swiping.
It was something like when in an older cyanogenmod 11 you locked the screen and the sound became the same laggy.

In cm11 there isnt any problems like this for now.

Web browser makes battery drain.Can you fix this?

There's no battery drain for me. How do you know it's the web browser?
If you're really sure it's the webbrowser, you can always disable the APK for a while and see if it's really that what's draining the battery.

I also highly recommend you to disable location services, because maybe it's the browser just searching for your location and then passing it to the website you're currently viewing.

Yeah you know XP dev is kinda dead nowadays so some people want to give new look to their phones so they flash a CM 11 rom.

Well ya this is the correct thread to ask that question and is completely related to the ROM, isn't it? ;)
Anyways I thought we had freedom to create and share our own works :)

Keyboard

Thanks for the really good ROM. Liked it a lot, using for the past week on ART without any issues. :victory:
Just a quick question tho, would it be possible to port a keyboard that supports T9/keypad mode? Don't mind if its a flashable ZIP as well.:confused:

Just one issue so far: the application Llama doesn't seem to always get root privileges in time (even though I've added it to the list of super-user apps under Settings). Any idea what might be wrong?

WIFI sleep issue...

Hi guys, I'm having a problem with the WIFI conection, I like to set it to sleep when screen off, but when the phone goes to deep sleep the conection gets lost and I have to turn it off and back on. Tried WIFI Fixer and it didn't help or I missed something in the config. Have WIFI always on in the meantime.

Any sugestions???
