Dude this ROM kicks ass!

I'm loving it so far and it's smoothness is amazing. Just one thing, sometimes the App Drawer icon deletes itself and I don't think xLoud is activated. How would I activate it? And is the beats Audio necessary or can it be uninstalled?

The beats audio app is just for the notification and the xloud for it to be activated again just reflashed. Xloud is just for the loud speakers and beats is for head phones because the 2 drivers don't work well together and thanks :)

Ah ok. So, when you say reflash you mean just reflash your Nandroid?

Also what's the battery life expectancy on this ROM? I just finished charging it and it's already at 94 in an hour of use. o_O

Also, yeah some icons keep deleting themselves on my desktop and the launcher sometimes get's EXTREMELY laggy that I have to Force Stop it.

Yes, when I say reflash i do mean reflash the nandroid, your battery life is a little below average that i tested. It all depends on how many apps you installed. And that problem with the icons is very unique. I recommend either uninstalling holo launcher (after you installed another launcher) then reinstalling it, or restore the rom again.

Know any good apps that would work well with this phone to help improve the battery life?

Btw I'm using a 3600mAh battery I forgot to mention too.

3600 mah!! Um that is either your battery or something is wrong with your apps and I definitely recommend juice defender, tasKiller (yes that is how you spell it), and underclocking it.

I have two 3600 mah batteries, and I'm using the second now and I have Juice Defender as well as tasKiller. I never really trust taskillers but I'm giving it a shot, and my battery is now at 90% over the course of 7 hours.

Don't know if you wanna consider that good. But I'm also overclocked at 249mhz Min - 1.402Ghz smartassV2 using deadline as the I/O sheduler, as my settings.

I usually try underclocking but when I want to play game it's terrible. x.x You think it could be the battery? This is the battery I'm using

Yeah for me that is REALLY good, but I'm guessing that the battery might be wearing down( don't know how long you have had it) or you have a lot of apps. One last thing I can recommended is that you should try deleting the battery stats of use battery calibration from the play store.

Yeah I used the Calibration on the other battery that is now charging on the wall charger.

I WOULD buy a MUGEN battery if that would make a difference, but I feel that it's way too expensive for a battery.

Any new updates coming to this ROM? Also is there a way I can send you a list of the apps I have so maybe you can tell me what could be draining my battery?

The mugen battery will definitely wear out fast. I don't if there are any apps, for taskiller put a widget on your home screen and when every you get the chance use it. It helps prolong my battery. And right now I am working a a new update with lock screen music controls with widget locker :)

Awesome! Would you be interested in also adding the CRT Screen-Off Animation, in the ROM too?

Also after listening to music for about 7 and a half hours, my battery is at 41% between also texting and surfing the web and calling. Would you say that's good?

I believe that site has the download for a zip that has a number of features for ROMS. Another one of which you could add would be the reboot phone feature.

And yeah, would you consider Facebook a battery killer? Or ooVoo? Or Skype? if not using them?

Cool Ill add that in the next update(says its for mini, will it work?) and also if you are logged in yes huge battery killer. If nit using them? As long as they are not running
I think they should be fine

You rock dude. You should feel good about your work, because this ROM made me leave the 2.3.2 UK Rom that I've been using for so long. I didn't want to get rid of it cause I loved it had xLoud and it was so stable. This ROM is JUST like that but with more extras and some games run better!

So yeah, I'd be more than willing to help you improve this ROM with ideas and such. PM me if you want for my email and we can talk more about stuff on this. =D

I'm not sure, I mean I've seen people port stuff from other phones to the play so I would imagine it might.
