Load this up last night. All went smooth. I really like the DPI. Almost looks like santods max layout. Thanks for the new ROM to play with.

I have been running this since about an hour after you posted it. I have between poking around as much as I can and have found no problems. I would love to have the hover feature added but I know that is not a slimkat feature. When I can I will shoot you a donation. Thanks for the gray ROM.

Why is everything smaller? DPI change? I like it.

Thank you so much for the donation man! it's all going back into building for more devices (need to upgrade this laptop lol no space).

As for DPI, it's a slim feature. It makes seems the display more elegant :)

Edit: can someone grab a screenshot from their About Device?
