Hope everything is working well. My threads are always quiet, which I guess is a good thing. :victory:

ThdDude, loving your build. It solved some serious battery problems that stock CM11 had and feels really responsive. Couple of things I'm wondering about though.

* Looks like the ability to add specific apps to the soft keys and home button disappeared, in this build you can only select actions.

* Phone call bluetooth volume doesn't seem to actually work, it doesn't change the voice volume while I'm in a call on my car audio system.

* Not all apps can be added to lock screen shortcuts and not all widgets show up in the widgets list.

* Occasionally the phone will freeze up for several seconds. Eventually it will start responding again or the lock screen will randomly pop up.

I'm still on the 1/16 build, not sure if any of these things have been fixed in the latest one, but wanted to bounce them off you guys. Thanks for making a great ROM!

Thanks ThdDude! I love all your roms this one has been my dd since you started making them but for some reason I can't get the 2/1 build to boot I even tried to do a clean install but still no luck? Either way thanks for all your hard work

I haven't tried the 2/1 build yet, but if it was built from the CM 2/1 nightly code, that could be the issue. The CM 2/1 nightly (and 2/2) have major issues. The 1/26 build of this ROM works great.
