Dirty flashed over cm, everything seems to be fine.. Phone fc's if you cancel a call before it connects.
Location icon gets stock on status bar after using some app related to location.. Either than that it's smooth the features are working, thanks

I'm not sure a bug can really be reported If you did a dirty flash over another rom. I haven't had any FC's or icons stuck so far but I did fresh install the ROM.
