Damn it forgot to ping ya. How's oktober fest?

Heya zach! Actually neither. Pulled apart an m4 that I have which suffers from the battery issues, to check on camera compatibility before deciding to open my device. You know what the problem was? A ****ing loose connection. In saying that, I had some interesting success with removing...

Here's to hoping it's not a motherboard issue then eh? Cheers for your help mate

Custom actions to navbar Having dificulty applying custom actions to the nav bar - double tap to switch apps etc. Any help here is greatly appreciated!

Stability beats the CM13 rom, incall and ringtone are good. Similar to stock. Nothing wrong with charge time. Haven't noticed any difference with heat. No comment over LED, havn't tested yet. Battery improved over stock, but that's probably due to root and wakelock blocking.
