Just curious if you know if CM and or AOKP is planning on moving away from AOSP to the Google Edition TW framework ever?

CM and AOKP encompass far more than Samsung... and from that perspective it's wise to keep things somewhat compatible where they won't break other things. Beyond that... TW framework source is still proprietary and so there's no way to build that on your own at the moment.

Bottom line - if you want the Google Experience and still play with TW apps you're better to stick with a GE-themed TW ROM.

Awesome rom! 2 questions:

1) Is it possible to disable the home button wake option? My phone keeps waking up in my pocket.

2) Is there any way to turn off the backlighting on the capacitive keys? I like to use the navbar and it's distracting to still have the keys light up.

Otherwise, fantastic rom!

This is my favorite AOSP rom for this phone so far. Everything seems to work and it just flies in a way that CM doesn't. 3g data is as good as with TW. All I need now is for Google to release a better camera app, but we'll probably have to wait at least until KLP for that to happen.

Edit: IR blaster doesn't work. Bummer.

Loving the ROM . the only bug I've encountered is the data will stop . its only happened a few times . the 4g icon will still be blue but the black arrows inside the signal bars will be gone . a reboot fixed it . and is there a way to take off the Google search bar on the home screen?

    Sorry about the miscommunication folks - it's been straightened out.
    The builds ran, which I've updated the goo.im link so you can see them all now.
    That should keep everyone up-to-date until AOKP updates the device page.
    (Which I suspect is just a matter of getting the official maintainer status straightened out.)

    OP updated with official 4.3 nightly! Sorry for the wait and enjoy!!

    I had reboot issues while running the 9/28 build with Ktoonsez kernel

    I'm planning on an unofficial build this weekend if no nightly run this week. Been busy helping PA team with a big project.
