Im not sure if its only for me, bit my SMS got deleted when updating from 2.0 to 2.0.1, bit call log, apps and stuff are still there and settings, i also didnt choose wipe.
Only happened to me?

Have issues:
- not able to select a quick sms answer on incoming call. The icon (white one, in the upper side) for that is just not there.
- not able to set another quick-access apps on a lockscreen. "Unlock phone" and "camera" only.
- Notification panel settings. The "ROM Control / Statusbar settings / Statusbar Toggles" obviously overrides the standart configuration. But still this functionality lacks a "Sync on/off" toggle. Standart configuration of toggles is just "not enough" and the "ROM control" doesn't have this option
- MMS.apk had some weird white colors, had to replace it with another "blacked out" one.

Its a slider at the bottom
Aokp feature, this is a Samsung rom
I didn't create the toggle control
I didn't theme the MMS app. Its part of crussaders theme

None of these are really issues, it seems like you would be better off using a full aosp/aokp/pa ROM is it would suit your needs better

I inverted Crussaders MMS, he may or may not include it in his next release. If you want it, it's in Ultima.

I just used this one:
Mms.apk @ DropBox
it has a good blacked out look but still lacks some customization IMHO. Thanks for giving a clue.
I would definately try Ultima if only it has a completely blacked out interface. I looked at the screens and it has some blending into gray. Am i wrong and its possible to provide a completely blacked out look?

If you are looking at using someone else's rom, please post in their thread about it, not mine

    Too crowded in here, too many aosp roms, too many fanboys

    Im done, its been a nightmare all the way through
    Unless you release an update every couple of days, people arent interested - thats not what rom building is about imo
    I guess ultimarom is the one for you lot now, its based on my work anyway
    See ya around the forums

    Thanks to all the relevant people, you know who you are
