Xperia simple home not working
Neither are the gestures. Camera recording was working fine for me. The live walls make the phone laggy, but since I don't use them no issue for me. The brightness panel in the status bar is not in line with the other panels. Greenify is compulsory, since so much syncing apps are running in the background, I have 22 apps hibernated as of now, these are all inbuilt. GPS for me won't work for me till I manually download the epo files, of which the settings menu is missing?? ROM lags, not a lot, but it does lag. This is not my final verdict. But like every ROM ever that does not have the nexus launcher, I don't see myself using this ROM for more than two days. But this is personal preference. I like the ROM. It's just some minor annoyances that bother me. Thanks for the port!
Edit:- Swipe down to unlock does not work for me, swipe up does. Might be my fault or a bug. ( worked after a reboot)

Its ok to know that you have many minor issues with this rom, some seems major from your point of view. Most of the things mentioned you are not experienced by me. Anyways this rom does not guarantee anything. But this rom will improve in coming time. Till then better you flash your previous favourite rom.

EDIT1: lolz
