will it have all the customization options of cyanogenmode? whats the difference beteen this and CM and SCREENSHOTS please...
Read first post: "...it has no custom features to provide you stock android experience"

AOSP (Android Open Source Project) – pure clear, initial Android which Google creates. It installed on Nexus devices.
CM11 using AOSP as base and just adds a lot useful customization options.
So no reason create another CM.

2 All:
At first boot select Launcher 3 to get normal homescreen.
If you already selected test launcher go to Settings > Home

I can't find the option to turn sync on, my sync for google account is off and i can not turn it on. Is this intentionally or I just can't seem to find the option?

Edit: My bad, sync started working after restart.

Also i notice the phone is heating a lot. Should I apply the htest patch from cm11?

Tried restarting but still GPS not locking though its symbol is visible in statusbar... Any solution...?
Try to download agps data via "gps status and toolbox" app from playstore maybe it will help. BTW GPS in this phone is just shi... this morning I tried to record my track but didn't find location at all (my track was like 10-20 minutes).
