Giving this rom a go, looks nice.
"Dirty"flashed over CM10.1 with only a wipe system, forgot about factory reset. Lots of FC's as (maybe) expected.

System wipe and factory reset then flashing, fixed it.

Sweet, Team EOS developing for the Nexus 4. I've been running your ICS rom for the TF101 as my daily driver for over 6 months and I'm glad to see another developer whose previous work I can vouch for! Before I flash this rom can you confirm if it has adjustable autobrightness and a 2G/3G toggle?

Yes brightness slider with option of auto brightness. No 2g/3g

I guess he meant adjustable auto-brightness. This is not possible, at least I haven't found it.

Yes, that's what I meant. Like the one on CM10 based ROMs where you set the brightness manually at each incremental lux reading level. Is there any chance this feature might be implemented in future updates with maybe options to add custom increments?

Shame about no 2G/3G toggle as ever since I came across this feature in CM7 it's one of my must have things in a ROM.

You can switch to 2G.
settings>More>Mobile Networks>Use only 2G networks.
Is this what you mean?
There is also a Mobile Data toggle that can be set in the notification panel.

It's not as convenient as a toggle though. I tend to leave my phone on 2G with data switched off as I prefer to access data than have it pushed to me and also to lessen battery consumption. If I need to access online data then with CM10 all I do is toggle both data and 2G/3G from the pulldown toggles rather than going all the way into the settings menu.

The joy of Android is the fact that it's very customizable to suit individual needs and styles whilst being easy to use and productive. Going into the options menu to change something that can be done via a toggle is like printing a document, scanning it then emailing rather than just saving and emailing it.

In my personal option a 2G/3G toggle is something that Google should have included long ago but with each new revision of Android it's still omitted.

Hey guys. Since N4 is such an important device in today's AOSP scene, I wanted to take a few minutes to lay out what the Eos project is all about, and what can be expected. This project is fundamentally driven by a spirit of originality. We are guys that love programming. We love using our devices everyday and thinking, "What could we do better? Why did Android do it like this?" I believe that is the core driver of feature creativity. At the same time, I don't believe in reinventing the wheel either. For example, Cyanogenmod has the best Mms and Phone implementation, period. Therefore, we implement that resource, and give proper love, credit, and respect. We are friends to all. Personally, I really love the scene right now! So many guys are getting into AOSP, compiling their favorite projects on their own, contributing, sharing.

We are also responsive to the needs of our users. If it becomes evident there is demand for a popular feature, such as the TMobile Theme Engine, we make it happen. However, one thing I am opposed to is implementing features that are unique to another project. Features like Quiet Hours from Cyanogenmod or Pie from Paranoid are awesome features. Yet, they are uniquely CM and PA. They wrote those features, and they are features that give those projects their identify. So by definition, those features would take away from our unique identity. I don't apply this standard to every feature any other team writes, of course. But I think you guys get the picture. I don't bog down our build with features I deem stupid. If you haven't used a feature in a week, it don't belong in your build. Being the project leader, I get to make that assessment. But with proper logic and reasoning, my mind can be changed as well :highfive:

Besides Maguro, this really our first big GSM device. So we'll have some catching up to do with GSM features, like 2g/3g toggle. Why anybody would force 2g is beyond me, but I digress lol. This is an ongoing project and we welcome user feedback and participation. We are drama-free. Their will be no trolling here. And i forgot to add the XDA support link in ECC but you guys know where it is :p

For more info, check my sig. We also include the change log in ECC (Eos Control Center)

Thanks for giving Eos a run! For you guys that know what's up from the tablet side of things, you know we like kicking ass and taking names!

We already have an assortment of softkey customizations. What did you have in mind?
I know you can change color of the softkeys but I was wondering if you can change the image to custom like in aokp rom. Hope I'm not confusing you and you get what I'm trying to say unless of course you have already have that feature already implemented, and I haven't figured it out yet.
