Review after more than 24Hrs of usage

This is a great ROM!

Pros:
-No lags
-Around 150MB of free RAM at any point even with decent amount of apps (Just after flashing the rom i had about 80-90MB of rom, but rebooting the device solved it.)
-Can play heavy games.
-decent battery life
-Bluetooth, wifi, all work fine
-Great UI

Cons:
-No brightness control (I don't know how to fix it :( )
-Takes long time to charge
-Images clicked are clear, but they look unclear on the screen before taking them..
-LED doesn't work

Going to use this ROM for a while, liked it :)
Just want to know how to fix brightness control

Had to rollback.

The Rom became very laggy in 2 week so laggy that it became unusable, no keyboard and constant wait for the launcher to redraw..... I thought this would be the JB rom to use but its not....:S........

Just my review, cheers to the dev for the looks that are definitely stunning.

as I said,its there in the Faq.
For me everything works right,illumination bar,led and brightness.
I can't fix a bug if doesn't reflect on my side.

For those facing lag, uninstall the tweaks as in Faq and flash these

Plz update with new 4.4.2 app !
Thanks
Do you want small apps? or Seraj power toggles?
Serajr power toggles aren't compatible with the current rom framework,and the reason they weren't included.

Maybe he was requesting about 4.4.2 ported apps, and wait.. 4.2.2 small apps? That's a great idea! ;)

If I have already flashed Munjeni's
Kernel & rom, can I flash this rom without preflashing the kernel?

Yes,it'll flash munjeni's kernel again from Rom's Zip.
However is suggest you flash Experimental kernel v12 after you boot the rom.
I just noticed it fixes all the issues(illumination bar etc).

Use pefrormance control app,and under minfree task killers,try using low values I.e light or vlight
Should help.

Yes,I know that,ill be updating the ROM with them soon.:fingers-crossed:

    tnx dev:good:
    but i can`t install elixir!!!!i think based on 100 better idea
    I needed that input.Thanks ;)
    i tested only on Stock kernel

    Congratulation for making this :) the way people are asking & requesting you to base it on .100 makes me think they liked your Rom pretty much, probably more than you expected hehe. Plus, I think colorizing support makes it a unique Rom :good: Keep it up

    Thank you sir ;)
    And yes,i have already started working on .100 based Rom :highfive:

    I did feel .100 was bit snappier!
