It Twrps not working for you at first, reboot to bootloader from the recovery menu and go back to recovery via bootloader... That'll do it

this is based off slimkat(11/09/13) right? so it doesnt have all the features from 4.3?
cm is merging the features in 4.4 so this wont have all the features of 4.3 till then. Also we need to wait for pa, aokp for more features. op is trying hard by himself to merge some more features like network speed indicator etc.

this isn't based off a particular dated build, as the commits kind of roll in.
but essentially you're correct.

slimroms is hacking away at the features list, slowly but surely.
so this rom will stay with those commits definitely.

Req: statusbar brightness slider, back to kill

I think both of those features were in slimbean.
so they may be merging them in eventually.

if that's not true, then if you could point me towards a rom ((repo)) that has it integrated, that would be awesome.

Rastakat has it. Also, anyway to port the n5 business dialer into AOSP?

But the phone app has the business dialer...?
Isn't it from aosp?

Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
It doesn't. You can't type a business name into the dialer and have it pull results from maps. The AOSP dialer only searches what's in contacts. The n5 dialer will use maps to find the business and show it in the dialer as a result as if it were in your contacts.
