Yes it does. I just tried it out.

I didn't want to gunk up the thread, but at the same time this thread doesn't get the traffic that some others do. I think that's because of the lack of issues.

This is easily the best ROM I've used on our phone, and the new update is fantastic.

Thanks! :good:

That's just for the 'Ace' phone. We have a 'mako' Nexus 4 (or is it maguro)

Should have perfect built from sources driver with no issues for us!

Thank you! That's what I was wondering!

Well I didn't use the gapps from op, I downloaded gapps from goo.im for 4.2.1. Maybe try that?

Finally got an upgrade to work. Started with codefirex + CyanogenMod gapps pack. Always get the system ui crash if update ROM and ref lash those gapps.

This time flashed new codefirex, flashed op gapps pack, reset cache and dalvik cache. Rebooted and went straight to desktop. no welcome screen or system ui errors.

All is looking good so far.

Please, why is the bluetooth call quality in car system so low? (mostly on the other side calls, that can not hear me well - cutting and very low quality)
On other ROMs it seems to be OK and it wasnt any issue in bluetooth car audio - nobody complained.. Is this known issue of this ROM, or only my?? Thank you!

Running SR2 with Franco kernel r29 and everything seems very smooth, thanks for the awesome work.

Just need to get the volume music controls working with Spotify and I'm happy...

This Rom is friggin amazing with Franco r29. I have been following Synergy since he started his bulids back on the desire hd. His roms are top notch. Thanks for the great works man.

Bluetooth car audio works excellently for me, no audio issues. Have you taken your car in for service recently? They usually patch and update console software when you do, could be the car. Or perhaps you were in a bad service area? Are you using a custom kernel?

There really are very few issues. 95% of things 'just work.'

You make a good point. A lot of the high traffic threads deal with support requests.

Flashed this yestd. Awesome ROM. No issues yet

I came from Xylon 015 Rom and few things I am unable to find:

1] There was a setting to disable notification light and put phone on silent for a certain amount of time (Had it during night between 12am to 8am). Anyway to do this on this Rom

2] Anyway to add shortcuts on the lockscreen

3] Anyone tried this ROM with Bricked kernel and had any issues?

4] Adding different user's? (it gave option to put switch user in power options but didn't do anything on power menu when enabled)

Not requesting anything. Just wanted to check if they are in ROM and if I am missing them

1. I don't see a ROM level do not disturb mode. You can download an app to resolve this. HD Widgets has a widget to toggle mode for this but only for notifications I believe, dunno if it will disable alarms or BLN.

2. Not that I can see besides assigning shortcuts to widgets such as UCCW, SimpleText and Minimalistic Text.

3. Others have used and recommend Bricked with no issues.

4. Not sure. I know at the Android level, that's a tablet specific feature. Not sure how this ROM handles it or if setting dpi to tablet mode will trigger it.

thanks!

Thanks for the answers

Came over here from Xylon 015 + FrancoR29
AnTuTu score was 12000ish over 3 trials.

Codefire + Franco got about 11000ish.
Codefire with its native kernel ran 14500ish.

Now I'm not a true believer of benchmark scores, as there are way too many confounding variables to consider, especially across devices/users. And I still think Franco is a great dev, whose work on the N4 is still early... But I have to say that Codefire is frakkin' impressive!

Hope that battery life is as good as performance!

Am I the only I've without haptic feedback? The navigation buttons don't vibrate on touch for me.

EDIT: Never mind, I unchecked 'vibrate on touch'.

I've found battery life with this ROM to be QUITE excellent. And not to stir the pot, this is just my own personal opinion - but I find Franco's kernel to be overrated. Motley's and Faux's are, in my opinion, highly superior and I always find myself going back to Motley's after trying others out just as I always find myself coming back to my cfx nandroid after trying out other ROMs.

No other kernel has been as stable for me, providing an excellent balance of performance and battery life. Motley's development schedule is also much slower with fewer updates, allowing new tweaks and such to mature and be tested on other's projects before adding his own implementation.

Faux provides an interesting beta experience with bleeding edge tech (except for Linaro optimizations and such). Not as stable for me as Motley but his unique work allows for the best battery life possible (albeit at the cost of performance) if you so choose to go down that route. One of his users achieved 7hrs+ screen on time by disabling two cores, frequency capping etc.

Franco doesn't have beta releases. Just mainline releases where he continually tests new stuff. I admire his willingness to explore new stuff (except for uv and Linaro ) but often problems and such arise.. Like his aggressive thermal throttling limiting multitasking.

To be fair, many devs eschew Linaro optimizations implementation and even extreme uv will offer perhaps a 5% battery life savings, at most.

And yeah, cfx is the first AOSP ROM to convince me to permanently switch from being a CM stalwart and will definitely consider cfx support when choosing new devices (which will probably all be Nexus hardware anyway so I hope they will support hint hint ).

That was exact the Topic, that i've planned to ask here, cos when i flashed franco's Kernel with this the Antutu Score goes highly down. So for Performance i can only flash, linaro compiled Kernel's? which one has so implentations?

Usually motley, bricked, and trinity (morfic was testing the new Google chain though so this may have changed).

This ROM is already built with the Linaro additions. Using a non-Linaro built kernel won't penalize performance or negate the Linaro optimizations (this ROM comes with stock kernel after all) but not all kernels are made the same of course and some may provide better performance than others.
