Seems that the apps that I can't restore in tibu also have problems in the play store. I get the device isn't compatible with them message. They seem to work on my other roms. I've removed my Google account and logged back in again to no avail.

Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X1]

@desichiko23 That's how it is by default. One would have to hack the android.policy.jar file to remove the restrictions. I've done it before but most of my widgets didn't scale properly. The lock screen handles widgets differently as they have to be able to resize from a 4x1 to 4x4 grid. Bottom line, it wasn't worth it. More and more apps are adding support for lock screen widgets though.

Another quick tip: you can create folders in the app drawer if you select own order from the dropdown menu.

I have a Captivate and now i have to purchase a samsung at&t s2 too just because of this rom!

ROM really is amazing. Didn't honestly know what to expect, but it has really surprised me. As you can see, nearly a day so far and still half the battery left!

flashing gapps 20121212 fixed everything for me. ROM works great now. Thanks a lot! I can download apps from the market and TiBu works flawlessly again.

Are you doing any CPU/voltage tweaks (or anything else), or is this your "out-of-the-box" with this ROM? Also, how does this compare to other ROMs? I ask because my average usage on Slim Bean gets me about 14-18 hours, and I'm always looking for ways to stretch battery life out.
