This ROM is almost perfect. What's missing is the FM radio and good ram management (too many launcher redraws and app closes) but I'm quite sure our awesome devs will solve these soon. :)

Do you mean changing the file /system/build.prop (ro.config.low_ram=true) and rebooting? Would the kernel pick up this setting then, or is anything else required?

    6. New build will be downloaded and when prompted press Flash Now

    Q ) Howto Enable Heads up Notifications ?
    A ) Either enable it with a longlick in the notification drawer on the notification, or in Settings->app->App info via a check box. As soon it is enabled for this app every notification from this app will show as heads up, as long as it is not an ongoing notification.
