Pure Xperia Z look a like. Let me flash and see how it performs with all the daily using apps installed. Thanks for your time in development @Ayush Singh. BTW, what is that Walkman fix for? Please comment something on that, I'm a music freak and spends almost 6-7hrs everyday listening to music. Thanks again.

 

[Ayush Singh]

Walkman fix is for walkman fc, it will be fixed permanently in next release



also, i apologize for album fc issue, here's a fix for that http://d-h.st/JFM

Dear OP,
Things are working ok, just tell us what scheduler and cpu should be there for usage.
And the lockscreen isn't changing to AOSP type. Whatever I try.
Please suggest. It is very good up here using CTCaer Kernal VDD
:good:

Great
Transparent status bar looks really ugly in some places like when phone is locked & some other, users usually doesn't like it
I will try to bring 4x5 app drawer in the next release

about scheduler I prefer sio, use the default cpu settings, if needed overclock to 1.2, not more than that. It will drain battery
do one thing, change aosp lockscreen, do anything in navigation bar settings (like if u have it enabled, enable it once again) change aosp lockscreen again. The problem is with the lockscreen changer app, it doesn't mount system automatically
