Revision 8.0 BETA
Screenshots.

-Ice Cream Sandwich look.
-Really smooth when scrolling, even with transparent background. It looks like 2D performance is greatly improved. Scrolling complex page in dolphin hd is much better than any other CM7 rom (same as FXP rom).*
-(Not really a Bug) - Font is too small (in some apps it's really, really hard to read text) -you can easily change it
-I tried only one 3D game and there wasn't any problem with it (it was smoother than with froyobread)

Are you able to add multiple widgets on one homescreen? Or like on stock, one per page?

Well, the ROM is laggy as stated above

Also, the open-close animations of Apps don't show properly. And it takes a lot of time to open a app

wifi

the secure conections with WPA/WPA2 PSK are not working. But this happens to all ROMs. Any idea why?
Except the radioFM, which obviously does not work (connects but then FC) I noticed a lag in the menu. In SE launcher remains for a few seconds blocked in the middle of the page when scrolling.
Otherise a nice touch to Master Shpit's rom, but allow me to say that I prefer XGin rom for now.
Keep up the good work!!

    Quick review for 7.4

    GingerCruzt 7.4 short review

    • smooth in menu scrolling/filnging - can compare with GingerDX. :)
    • Even Active launcher is acting smooth.
    • Stock Sony Ericsson style.
    • MIUI music player - 99% percet of you will agree it's better looking than stock ;) Performance is same as stock.


    Extras:
    • Old Market :D
    • Keyboard from Eclair :p
    • Media widget (working fine on Launcher Pro!)
    • Status Widget (aka. switch widget) - working fine

    CM settings theres options for
    • Set SD card Cahce size
    • Overclock
    • Undervolt
    • Ultra brightness

    Potentialy annoying thing:
    • Clock always at the center, no option to move it.
    • Status bar is transparent even without Livewallpaper, but only in Xperia Active Launcher!

    Bugs found so far:
    • Auto-brightness is ALWAYS on, althogh is turned off in settings.
    • Can not add media shortcut widget on Active Launcher, it says widget already added.

    EDIT: overall, faster than GDX v10 ;)

    I don't want to spam here as off topic. But there are things that users cannot understand.

    - Devs release ROM/Kernel/etc... and just want to be respected.
    - Users want ROM/Kernel/etc... without worrying how it was made

    Here the conflict comes in. When some devs want to stop doing things because of disrespected behaviors (stealing, faking, complaining...), Users start to come in and complaining that devs were "chavunistic", "not mature", and "unforgiving". It's simple to understand because they (users) cannot get what they want.

    Try to think as devs do. And you will understand why they (devs) make their decisions.
