Thank you very much for this rom, it's my new daily driver.

The only complaint I have is the volume buttons turn down the volume on the lock screen. It's really small, but kind of annoying.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

I agree on this one.
Possible to make this optional?

SSOD

Somehow I've way too many and too frequent Screen Sleep of Death with this ROM.
I did total wipe prior installation (I call it virgin wipe - you do the fastboot flash of official factory ROM released by Google and then install Recovery and new ROM) and I always do fresh install of all apps and make all configuration from zero (so no TB, Google Backup or anything).

And I'm getting SSOD so many times that it makes this ROM very unpleasant to use. Any word about the potential fix arriving to the new 4.2.2 version?

Have you tried changing the kernel?

The Rom's theme song:

Pitch Black, all my real niggaz
Underground past the pavement
We be wildin' on the corner freestylin'
It's a fact that I'm dope
Realize it's all real

Sorry to break it to you guys, but it isn't my rhyme. It's from the opening of a Hip-Hop classic, "Pitch Black - It's All Real". DJ Premier beat.
haha, your comments were good though, I enjoyed reading them. :)

expected new nightly to be released today but nothing. It is supposed to have the 4.2.2 fingerprint merged in. Anyway... the delay is mostly caused by me. Trying to theme some apps/add entries to current theme. I want to make it perfect as I am going to use the rom for myself also and as my permanent driver/work in progress.

I was unsure from the OP, is the calendar inverted as well? Is that maybe handled by the theme manager now?

Thanks.

this rom has the google calendar. This is not inverted. I could easily theme the AOSP calendar but most people want the google which I haven't mod (yet). Are there really request to revert back to AOSP?

Since you asked... WHY IT TAKES SO LONG FOR 1.3 TO APPEAR?
I want apps that are used very often to be themed by a theme chooser theme. That way apps that are updated often, such as Gmail, YouTube, Play Store, Music, Google Search or even the deskclock (that CM Team updates once in a while), WILL STAY BLACK.

Benefits? You won't be searching for inverted apps anymore, plus I won't have to theme them every time they get updated. As this is really time consuming, my upcoming update got delayed.

WHAT TO EXPECT IN 1.3?
PER-APP-DPI via Xposed Framework Settings (like in PA) - tested and works really well . TABLET UI ON APPS such mail, settings, etc is also available
AwesomeBeats by Awesome (letting the Misledz mod come to past) - awesome sound
CM camera is back (was replaced in previous versions by google...I can't believe I did that)
Updated Thunderbolt! scripts
+++

Now getting back to theming...DO NOT DISTURB :D

    Concerns old and new users. DO NOT DIRTY FLASH!!!
    01. Before flashing do a full wipe (clean install)
    - wipe cache
    - wipe dalvik
    - wipe data/factory reset
    - wipe system
    02. Flash PitchBlack ROM
    03. Reboot your device
    04. When setup wizard is complete, press the HOME KEY
    05. Open up Settings>Security, simply press on "SMS message limit" and close
    06. Open ViPER4Android FX, select to install the "CortexA9/15 with NEON" driver and close
    07.
    OpenViPER4Android XHiFi, select to install the "CortexAx with NEON" driver and close
    08. Reboot into recovery and flash PB_Settings_2.2L.zip provided in 2nd post without wiping anything
    09. Installation is complete.
    10. Optional: Check Nova Launcher Fine Tuning Guide at 2nd Post

    Notes:
    *
    Process looks long but doing this actually is a 5 minutes game.
    * You do every step cause there's a reason for it. DO NOT SKIP NONE FROM 1-9
    * PB_Settings_2.2L.zip contains the Settings.apk This is the modded Beanstalk settings and is mandatory !!! Without it you actually don't have PitchBlack
    * My job is to provide the best possible outcome. Yours is to first search and read for what you don't understand and then ask me or other experienced users
    * For the record, I always format SD Card after a clean install. It helped me overcome some unwanted issues in the past with various roms
    * I have provided some basic info at 2nd post for 2.2L release called "PB 2.2 LEGACY GUIDE" to get you familiar with some of the new apps like ViPER
    * Please note that the full screen contact picture when receiving a call is now selectable as an option in Phone.apk By default is off so you just need to check that on

    Xposed Installer/ App Settings

    a. Open Xposed Installer, press Install/Update. It will ask you to reboot but don't do it yet
    b. Go to MODULES Tab and select "Xposed App Settings"
    b. Now reboot your device...DONE
    You can now configure Per-DPI- App via Xposed App Settings. To get tabletUI look on settings, email, gmail and other apps, you may use a 220dpi (or a value close to this) and 800x1280 screen dpi.

    Nova Launcher Fine Tuning Guide
    a. First check if there is a "data" folder on your sd-card
    b. If not, extract the "data" folder as it is on your sd-card
    c. If you already have a "data" folder on your sd-card, then simply extract the "com.teslacoilsw.launcher" folder in there
    d. When rom's first boot completes, simply press the red "Restore previous nova backup" message. It will automatically recognize the backup file
    e. The name of the backup, in case you already have others, is "Nova_Tweaked_2.2L". Select it, done. No need to reboot
    f. This procedure will auto adjust launcher preferences to the best possible for speed and stability. It will also hide the apps that are accessible via settings menu. You can still adjust preferences to your taste but to show the hidden apps you need to buy nova prime.

    gps.conf edit for non-European Users
    a. Go to system/etc/gps.conf
    b. First line and replace "europe" with the continent you live in as listed below...DON'T USE COUNTRY NAMES
    "africa"
    "asia"
    "north-america"
    "south-america"
    "oceania"
    c. Save file, reboot and that's about it!
    d. It's is strongly suggested at first run, to have data enabled in order for a-gps servers to update data. And of course you need to be in open air with your gps on

    NOTE:
    The gps.conf file provided in PB, is universal. It shouldn't by any means create issues for you. It should work fast and reliable for everyone. This was done after excesive studies. If you find other gps mods, with numerous lines added, which actually make things worse, please have a look at this first http://rootzwiki.com/topic/28989-the-end-all-be-all-guide-to-your-gps/

    What is the difference between BeanStalk and PitchBlack?
    - BeanStalk is used as a base for PitchBlack. So basically PB is a modded BS rom
    - BeanStalk is a clean rom while PitchBlack is a full rom, containing gapps, various mods and selected pre-installed apps
    - PitchBlack takes the name from its signature theme which offers inverted/darker colors throught the whole system.
    - BeanStalk or PitchBlack? Want a clean rom? Choose the first! Like PitchBlack theme and additions? Choose the second. Either way it's a win-win situatiom

    PB 2.2 LEGACY GUIDE
    1. About ViPER4Android
    - FX is your main effects app for headset, speaker and bluetooth
    - XHiFi is mainly used to restore audio quality for bad sounding files. You won't be using this much
    - FX and XHiFi can work as standalone apps or together. To work together, simply choose "Compatible" mod from both apps through settings and reboot
    - All available information is located at original thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2191223
    2. Beanstalk HALO and PA HALO)))
    - Beanstalk HALO is actually HALO itself. It's code is already merged into rom
    - PA HALO))) is an extra that can work with the above and gives you the ability to configure any app to have persistent floating notifications
    3. Beanstalk PIE and LMT
    - You have 2 PIES. Choose the one that suits you better
    4. Nexus Louder
    - I have deleted some of it's components. This should not interfere with ViPER. This should provide the louder volume on certain areas such as in-call volume. All audio effects are provided by ViPER
    5. What is "Dark Stalk"?
    This feature is included in all Beanstalk builds and I decided to include it this time. It inverts framework. Note that this cannot be applied simultaneously with pitchblack theme. I include it for those who like only a black framework while keeping apps unthemed in contrast with pitchblack that applies to various apps. So in order to use dark stalk, you need first to revert to system theme and then apply it

    Suggested Color Settings for AK Kernel
    Screens are attached below. You can use it as a reference and define your own. Also, set "Content Adaptive Brightness" to OFF.

    @itasoulas a 4.3 build is up in skyo's thread :)

    Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

    nice. The problem is that my free time after the birth of my 3rd child is so limited that I don't know if I can do this anymore. Plus the fact that I am on Cataclysm for quite some time now which feels stable and fast enough for me. Plus that if I update this rom, I also need to work on PB theme to merge changes for latest app updates. So don't want to keep you waiting. The possibilities of working again soon on anything are quite limited. Sorry guys. I want to (and makes me sad that I cannot develop in any way these days) but I simply don't have the time right now.
