Does anyone know how to reduce the intensity of the vibration when typing? It seems a bit too much as it is...

You could just turn it off? Keyboard settings.

I'm most likely dumb and browsed the 5 pages for an answer. With no luck, I am asking you guys if there's a way to make the top status bar solid, instead of being transparent?

Thank you

In the Hybrid (PA) settings, under Interface, you can change the color/opacity of the status bar.

I had that same issue on the conversion. I had to wipe/reinstall the rom to get nfc working again, but that's just me.

For those of you with dialer issues, are you all using stock dialer? I'm pretty sure it's a known aokp issue, but I know personally I was seeing a lot more issues when I was using exDialer. Stock dialer has issues, but not as many it seems.

I've had two issues when using the stock dialer (not using any other dialer)
1 - it'll occasionally drop a call just after you hit send. the radio icon will go from full bars to zero bars...redial and it comes back to full bars and the call goes thru.
2 - have issues when i put phone between shoulder and ear to talk no handed...the screen keeps waking up and pressing buttons. this happened occasionally in the past, but since i loaded up RootBox it happens every time.

both are irritants and not deal killers. at least on my end of the line.

NFC is not working for me either.

Yeah almost the exact same thing happened to me. Got a soft reboot, when it came back up about 30 seconds later i got a hard reboot then my wallpaper reverted back to the Plasma Live Wallpaper. The other kernel is stable for me too.

This is good to know. Its not a big deal to me either but at least I know its not an isolated issue and will most likely be fix some time in the future.

pfoxdizzle, in the development thread, said that changing the value of ro.telephony.call_ring.multiple from 0 to 1 fixed the issue for him, but it didn't work for me.

Dialer bug is really a non issue. In my case at least, I place a call like normal and once the dialer goes away simply pull it from the notification tray.

This rom has a taste of all the other Roms in oneone. Unless you absolutely need NFC, which I don't, I would say flash it!

Battery life seems dependent on which governor you use. I'm still playing around but today had 24% after 15hrs w/ 3hrs screen on.

Am I missing something or is there not a way to get the camera to save to the external sd?

Camera settings > Store Location, Turn on and it will save to external.

Thank you sir... Been awhile since I have used an actual Google camera. Note I did have to reboot after changing the setting. But now all my pictures on my SD card show. And the camera is saving there.

Actually, that only stamps the GPS coordinates to your picture

I wondered about that. Well for whatever reason it took 2 reboots after the initial flash for the camera to start saving in the right place.
