Great ROM so far. I've noticed a couple things. When I enable the toggles on the notification bar, sometimes when I try to turn something on or off, the icon doesn't change colors, not indicating whether it is on or off. When I check, it usually works but it seems like sometimes it doesn't. And I also noticed the wifi getting stuck when turning it off or on. Im definitely looking forward to updates to take care of the known bugs :) As I've said, great rom!

I don't use it so I can't test. Can someone test for him?
BTW there's a streaming app included in the rom, that's all I will say lol:D

Good news, everyone! Netflix works on Captivating with the Xposed workaround. If that was holding you back, it needn't any longer.

Great ROM, btw! Having a couple apps hang on TiBu restore, but otherwise pretty sweet.

You have a bad flash. This issue was covered in the captivate thread.

Thanks for your feedback!. Noz85,If everyone isn't affected, something is unique to your case. Either your configuration or something else is causing this. Were you one of the users that had to flash gapps?

Also, I hope folks are reading the OP carefully, you have to do a full wipe if coming from any other rom. It may be based on helly(formerly was based on cm10.1) but the framework and system modifications are so numerous that it might as well be a manufacturer's rom. It took a lot of work to port features and apps from the xperia line and have the audio subsystem work sony's xloud clearbass etc and beats audio. These are proper, comprehensive ports. Sharing from the album app doesn't work with any port of it that I've come across on xda etc. That's why I ask that you run any personal tweaks/scripts etc by me as not everything that works for aosp/cm will automatically work here. Third party themes might be unable to skin all the ui components because, again, the framework is different from stock cm.
Cheers, and the next update will be on March 3rd.:good:

Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X1]

really digging this ROM bro, I'd like to suggest reconsidering enabling all widgets and let the user decide if using the widget works for them :) also, image on notification background would be dope... I've been running the ROM with the included kernel and doing well, is there a noticeable improvement using the other kernel?

thanks again, keep up the great efforts, I am holding on to this device till the sgs iv comes out :)

I came from Task's latest rom but had an installation error so i flashed one of the old ported jelly bam rom I had and flashed this rom again and it worked. I did not have to flash GAPPS, the rom was brand new and untouched and I restored using TB that frozed on a few apps due to incompatibility with 4.2.2. All the other apps installed fine including the two games I posted earlier. They both start up well and plays just fine for about 5-10sec then the phone freezes completely. I then tried flashing the AJK 1.6 kernel following the flashing instruction completely. but still the same symptoms. Sry for the long recap but just wanted u to see if I did anything wrong, also i did a full wipe before hand ofcourse.

Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X1]

Those that are on Ajk kernel may turn off all tweaks under tweaks tab in stweaks (not the cortexbrain though) and see if it helps sort out any freezing problems as sephhi says this ROM has already packed a lot tweaks and some of them may clash I suspect. But I am sure what ajk has done are kernel layer tweaks that may or may not conflict with ROM's tweaks and sephhi only can confirm. If sephhi can flash ajk kernel once and see if what's in there under tweaks tab can affect the ROM that will be a great help :D

Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X1]

Those who are having game problems and using ajk. Open stweaks go to gpu tab and put the gpu voltage to default cause its underclock by default. See if thats causing the issue.

Turns out all the apps that cause TiBu to hang are apps that are not compatible (I assume with 4.2.2) - I'm going to miss Yelp most of all.

Why not install it again from playstore.
