Performance wise rom is awesome . But there are some bugs.
1. Unable to record videos.
2. GPS doesn't work.
3. Video playback is laggy.
4. When you tap on edit option of quick settings in notification panel , screen goes black
for about 30 sec and phone becomes unresponsive.

Okay. Now i will answer a few questions and later add an faq section to the thread.

1. The edit quick tiles and notifications work just fine. It will freeze if you haven't flashed the cam fix. That's normal.

2. I didn't experience any crashes till now. Flash rom, gapps ans fixes needed. Then reboot. The first boot will take some time. Be patient.

3. The battery life is also okay. The default cpu governor is set to performance. Use kernel auditor and edit it to interactive, ondemand or bioshock as per your need.

4. Video playback using h/w codecs is laggy. Use mx player for the time being. I will look into it and see what i can do.

5. Wake with home button is not working. Flash the attached zip as a temp fix to get it working.

For video recording use Footej camera or Cameringo app from play store.
Initially it didn't work , but then i applied video temp fix from crdroid rom .
Now it works , but video is too shaky .
How do i fix this.

bug RIL and Offline Charging
Even with the RIL FIX installed
Sorry. RIL is tested on both single sim and dual sim devices and made sure it works.
Follow this post for more info and steps
and when reporting a bug, tell the whole story. otherwise i will have no idea what i am looking at.
Device model, Bootloader version & baseband version (use kernel auditor app for that), zips flashed etc...
