Bugs (fixes in process)
Camera FC's
Symptom: Camera FC's when opened
Fix (Step 1): Make sure you are using the gapps linked in the OP. If you are, go to Step 2.
Fix (Step 2): Reboot to recovery, wipe caches, and reboot. If camera still isn't working, go to Step 3.
Fix (Step 3): Clear the Camera app data in LiquidSmooth Settings and reboot.[/fixed]

No data or constant data roaming (VZW users)
Symptom: Self-explanatory.
Fix: Search the thread - we are still trying to figure out what is causing this for some and not others, but until then just look through the thread - several users claim to have fixes for this.

You must have just recently deleted folder. I was able to download a 12/14 build but upon boot google play services kept crashing and couldnt get past setup screen to the rom. Hopefully new build doesnt have this issue

Is this build different than the 12/14 nightly I snagged from DrDevs before the RM? :)
Have you flashed it yet....see my above post

Yeah exactly...tried to remove that version (built with a borked pre-built chromium) in favor of the new one, and removed everything. However I found a local build that I'll upload now so you don't have to wait until the new build finishes.
