This is CandyKat. Built straight from SlimRoms source with commits from a variety of different Sources/ROMS. We wanted to give the users a fun, fully customizable ROM.We aim to add more features as this project progresses. We have also come up with the Candy Sweetener Pack. This is an Aroma installer that is full of delicious treats. Inspired by the CandyShop thread on XDA it has everything from glow dots to halo mods.

Check us out on the web @The-Candy-Shop

Currently using "old" harmony rom, and theres no option to change the wifi and cellular icon color in status bar, even though time/date and battery icon colors are customizable. Can the colors of wifi/cellular be changed in this rom?

We are still merging a bunch more features.





I'm gonna stay with harmony for a few commits till I try this ROM :)

Is there any chance you guys hand out the background of your header image? http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/1024x768q90/35/zh8d.png
I would reach out to @matthew0776 for that as he is the one who made it :)
