Installed, Running awesome so far as usual, il test the battery life from a full charge tomorrow. Any chance you could upload the Weather / Time widget that comes with the s5 UI?

Thanks.

I quickly tried this one, but keep getting fc's when trying to use dialler. Keeps say telling me contacts has had an error.
Did a full clean install before trying, wiped everything, cache, system, preload and even formatted internal sd card.

Will try again tonight and see if it still happens.

I have no dialer / contact problems. Try Wiping your internal storage, might be some lingering data.

Anyway, more feedback after using the ROM for a half day.

The battery doesnt seem to be as good as the Reviva ROM (however, I used Googy Max kernel with Reviva, ill reflash Googy Max and report back)


As for the performance, its not that good (don't get me wrong, its one of the best among the 4.3 ROMS) I just think that 4.3 is a real screw up. The transitions do lag quiet often, or maybe i just got used to running AOSP kitkat.

In all Honesty, the best ROM i ever used was Reviva based off the Samsung 4.2.2 Leak. That gave me a day and a half usage (4.3 and 4.4 currently give me just under a full day, 4.3 beating 4.4 by a slight margin) and the performance was amazing

I honestly hope we get a 4.4 update and then a SlimROM KitKat .

I know this sounds weird but you wouldnt have to have a backup of your ICS ROM would you? I was never a fan of jellybean, trying to force the system to render at 60fps is a flawed approach, im sure jellybean was Google's temporary solution while they worked on KitKat. In fact, KitKat is still beta, I'm sure they have been planning Kitkat memory rewrite + dalvik removal for some time.

Bare in mind this is the initial release ! I am planning on working on this further to increase perfprmance !

The battery life is problematic however I am not sure ican resolve this !? I will work towards the feedback you have given !

Thank you !

The performance isnt bad. Like I said. Among 4.3 its good. It has what I call "Samsung lag" like when u pull down the notification bar or unlock the phone.

Just the battery life isnt as good as reviva. Like I said ill flash Googy Max and test it tomorrow.

thanks for the ROM.
