Is anyone else having the screen flickering issue? It's not all the time, but frequently. At first it seemed like the backlight because it would kinda "strobe", so I turned off auto-brightness, but that didn't help. I then went into developer options and disabled hardware overlays, thinking it may be a gpu issue, but it still flickers. Also verified the md5 sum and the file was fine, did a full wipe too.

Are you running any custom kernels or themes?

I've had that couple times in certain apps (most notably Handcent), but a reboot or 2 (remember to re-disable HW overlays after every reboot) fixes it.

Does 4G work on this rom?

I have had 4g issues. Drops 4g but still doesn't reconnect. I'll have 4 bars(full signal) but its greyed out and no 4g icon. Until I switch back to 3g only. Then back to lte. And sometimes it still wont connect 100% settings-about phone-status, tells me im on sprints lte:13 network but refuses to connect all the way. Called sprint yesterday and told me there was an outage in my area, but I cannot believe that because all I have to do is wipe and reinstall the ROM and it works flawlessly...for awhile. Then I have to reflash again.

Anyone use that pimp my ROM inverted gapps? I just now found out about it. It looks very promising from what is included but I'm still rather new to this. So if anyone has tried it let me know what you think.

Does disabling hw overlay make this ROM very slow? Because I tried it for a while and there was lots of flickering and I wouldn't want to have to disable hw overlay if it means this ROM becomes slow

I haven't noticed any slowdown with hw overlays disabled. And that's with 5 home screens cluttered with icons, widgets and a live wallpaper. No worries!

Data is no longer available as a notification bar toggle?

Sent from my SPH-L710 using Xparent ICS Tapatalk 2

Yeah I'm not a fan of the new notification widgets. No data toggle, no option for haptic feedback, no option to collapse the notification shade upon toggling a widget.
Also, I've been getting really battery life on 2.17 (~10%/hour instead of ~3%/hour), anyone else experiencing this?

Will we ever get NFC support with this ROM or are they unable to do it?

So, basically, this can only change my settings, gmail, and YouTube to tablet mode? Is there maybe a "silly build.prop hack" I can use for every other app on my phone? Seems like this is just an app specific LCD density changer that wrecks my battery. FFL, stock, and finance apps in tablet mode would be most useful...mint even had a 720 option, but changed nothing. The others are only available in 360...

quick question on MMS, is MMS fully working for this rom?

I JUST got this phone a few hours ago and came from the evo LTE, while the evo lte has some 4.1.1 roms MMS is 50/50 on all the roms where sometimes it will receive the mms but never fully download.

Wasn't sure of any known MMS issues with this rom?

Thanks.

    I have actually come across another way to fix the flickering, which sticks after a reboot.
    I haven't done extensive testing on it but initial usage showed no flickering.

    You will need: A build.prop editor. I prefer rom toolbox but use whatever you please.

    EDIT

    debug.composition.type=dyn
    To
    debug.composition.type=gpu

    debug.mdpcomp.maxlayer=3
    To
    debug.mdpcomp.maxlayer=2

    Let me know how that goes for you guys.
