Nice to finally see another debloated rom!
Going to try this one out :) Thanks for the rom!

Best part is the 240 dpi, always use that so no more hassle into getting that setup everytime i update roms.

I just hope this one doesn't die like all the others we've had in the past for our beloved device :) Gj!

Nice rom.

Few issues so far:
1) touchwiz not aligned for 240dpi app drawer still shows small square.
2) news lwp settings FC.
3) samsung keyboard characters miss aligned for 240 dpi. Special letters out of place.

Overall feel is smooth. However still not a complete 240 dpi experience.

Keep up the good work.

thanks for the comments.
- Only touchwiz launcher have the issue. Thats why i have included Nova Launcher.
- LWP have some issue.. I was planning to remove them too, but accidentally, they got included. (LWP closes only if u select Weather related or Yahoo Stock related LWP)

- Can you add a screenshot of your keyboard? That may help. My keyboard screen is attached in the OP now.

Thanks you for the help..

for the touchwiz launcher and the keyboard issues here are the full working apk, just replace it in the rom before flashing, or replace it in system/app after flashing with root explorer and give them the permission rw-r-r and restart, enjoy it ;)




wow.. really great.. :)
it works well now..

i will include these apps in the next version of my rom.. many thanks for the help..
