Installed this ROM

Finally I got this ROM installed. After initial setup the UI looks pretty good. I will give full review after using couple of days. I`m using my Go Launcher UI so couldn`t find much difference in the UI. However the notification and status bars look pretty intuitive. There is no lag while doing multi tasking. I have few queries:-
1. Can I use multi window screen option?
2. How to remove the floating icon which shows recent apps. It looks buggy.

Thanks for your efforts.

Good ROM

I flashed this ROM yesterday and the experience was great. This is my view on the ROM after two days of usage:

Good points:
1. Wi-Fi works better than in stock ROM. I have had poor connectivity while using stock rom, grateful that this is fixed.
2. Some apps that weren't compatible with stock rom are now compatible here. (Nice!)
3. Camera is a lot better than stock Camera, Quickpic is a pre-installed app (Thumbs Up!)
4. Viper4Android, TubeMate and other apps are included.
5. Font is a lot smaller and I find the large setting is good (Some may find this irritating!)

Some Bugs:
1. I couldn't locate any widgets in the default "TouchWiz launcher". Google Now launcher came to my rescue.
2. The floating Recent apps Icon is a bit irritating. Is there a way to make it disappear? Uninstall?
3. Wasn't able to move apps to Internal SD Card even with Link2SD
4. Is this really a KitKat ROM? I was using the "Drippler" app and it showed that the Android version in 4.2.2, although the "About Phone" section in "System Settings" shows 4.4.2.

Overall, this is a very good ROM and it is refreshing to use this instead of the stock ROM. Great work!

Thank you,
Kalyan

To use widgets in touchwiz you need to press and hold on the home screen.
It is not a KitKat ROM it is just a build.prop modified in reality it is 4.2.2 only.

Okay, thought so.

Still am unable to move apps to SD card, even with titanium backup.
I have removed the floating app using titanium backup app. The name is floating app only.
