Amazingly smooth ROM. Haven't encountere any problmes so far, Froze the floating app from link2sd. Loads of free RAM. Just one request, can you fix the automatic time for weather widget? I hate not being able to select automatic time. One more thing, does it auto sync the accounts? I always see that sync is off.
For weather widget you have to do fix mentioned as in first page under tips :) There s no problem with sync it should auto sync

This rom works like butter....very resposive....apps open and close in a flash...
Just one issue...I installed latest version of viper over existing viper app but it force closes...any suggestion please!!!
But that issue wont stop me from using this awesome rom!!!!
:laugh::victory:
After updating viper, download link2sd and select viper4android then click actions and select integrate/convert into system. Reboot. Install viper driver and reboot. Done.

This ROM has a great battery backup and the reviews too have been good regarding battery. I have mentioned in the first page under TIPS how to get good battery life.

Calibrate battery. Charge your battery to full 100% and from there start using. ( Don't disconnect charge in the middle ). U should have a good battery time :)

No such phone getting too hot reviews so far. Since Magnus has an aluminium case if u roam around in sun outside or if u are in a hotter environment the phone will get hot at the back. If u r in ur home or a cooler place the phone definitely should not get hot :)

* No widget crashes reported. But this ROM touchwiz does not have the option to drop widgets from app drawer. We are working on an alternative launcher. Stay tuned :)

*Use ilocker for changing lock screen.

Hit Thanks which doesn't cost you but encourages me to work more

I found out that gmail app was consuming a lot of battery through sync. I have uninstalled it and installed K9 email app. Now charging the phone to 100% and will use batterycalibration app. Fingers crossed.

BTW i think it's the best ROM in magnus in terms of smothness. Great job of porting.

Use greenify which is the best task manager app :) Don't install any other task manager apps which won't give u anything and just consumes space in ur system.

Mobile standby and Phone idle are consuming a lot of battery for me. From fully charged at night it went to 63 % in the morning. Both of my cell networks have full signal. What should i do?

Hey can you reply to my queries?
Sorry bro didn't saw your post. SO you saying battery is depleting so fast for you. I saw your earlier post you are already using greenify. I don't know what mods or other phone settings you are using but one useful tip let your battery percentage go down to below 15 and then charge it continuously till 100 in a single charge. Do it twice or thrice a week. It will help to improve your battery life. No other uses reported issue like this so i assume this issue is with coz of some apps, settings or mods etc
