Missing stuff and options + request

Even with the latest update I find Music players freezing randomly. Alarm failing at times. FM Radio not working. Here are some solutions which other users could use :

Music : Get "Winamp" freeware version .. works like a charm - google it ;)
Alarm : Get " I Can't wake up " - never failed till now for me.
FM Radio : Sprite FM ( freeware version) - works pretty well.
Another generic suggestion for Indian users - Google Maps sometimes shuts up the navigation mid way (I'm a biker and would not even realize that google has stopped prompting me for quite a bit) - try Sygic map my india ... works awesome ;)


Feature request : Call Recording. A feature that could be easily enabled on AOSP ROM's seem missing here. Any thoughts ?

My phone still freezes intermittently and needs a reboot wondering if the issue is standard across users

Its commonly known that Spirit FM is the only option to use band radio in an AOSP Rom. :)

And FYI, please be informed that Call recording feature is broken in other ROMs than stock since 10.2.
So you can't say it's missing features & request for it.

It's a request mate :) nothing offensive there . Won't you love an addon feature to the already powerful ROM ? :)

Maybe legal concerns. Call recording is illegal in many countries. Even in the US, the legal situation is tricky. @ashoksoft please remove all the blackmarket stuff. Thank you.
Done ... Though keeping it as an addon option should be useful. Anyway I'm trying to create a call recorder for CM right now :) lets see... if things get going - hope to see a post on that ;)

Will we ever get a new Slim JB build? Slimkat is nice but I still have a lot of apps (mainly games but also some non-games) that work either very badly or not at all with KK.

The status bar's tint is weird in recent apps on the latest build. Does anyone else have this issue?

@fusionjack I just did a clean flash (wipe data, system, preload, cache, dalvik cache, everything) of the latest build (02/24).
This issue is still present.
It first started happening for me on the build from 02/17, so I guess there was a commit that broke something then? :D

I flashed latest 02.24 release.. i like it so much. I think this is the best rom for n7000 with Asylum. Tnx for the lock screen battery circle identification. And its faster than Asylum for now. I dont know how but i use both on daily bases. Keep up with the good work.....

Any battery saver feature in the future?:)

I think only complain is fast battery draining in comparison to Asylum... otherwise... great , fast, smooth rom...

This build more responsive than 17 and 21 builds.

Agreed. However, I think the delay period set for the "long press" is too short (Hardware key custom action).
For instance, when I set long press home button for screenshot. when the device is in sleep mode, pressing the home button will do screenshot. :confused: @fusionjack, is that possible?

thanks.
there was more battery usage when screen on some weeks ago as i changed the gpu steps to the default one: two gpu steps. i have reverted back to 3 gpu steps like before. the battery usage when screen on should be improved by now.
as always, it is recommended to full charge your battery after flashing a build...

yeah, some users also said like that, instead normal press action, the long press action is triggered. either it is bug on the hardware key rebinding or a bug since home button to unlock/answer call feature. i'll take a look again into the code...
with my settings: normal press - home screen, long press - recents app, home to unlock/answer call are both enabled, i never experience the issue that you mentioned.
