Flashed on Asylum ROM. Its working as it should....thanks for your work :)

Sent from my C6603 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Thanks for your report. I have added Asylum ROM to the confirmed list of compatible ROM's.

Also, I have received 2 alternative designs from @domicq regarding to the bootlogo:

1. http://i.imgur.com/SegB97z.jpg

What do you guys think? Do you like it over the current one?
Which one do you like most?

    Well, I was waiting untill CM merged the .569 Sony updates, but it's taking way too long. So I decided to start working on it again and try to fix the issues. I hope to put out an updated version in the coming few days.

    If I can't solved the problem that it's not interchangable between all ROMS, I'll release seperate versions for the different major ROM's

    Please help me compile a list, but I think there are 3 ROM's with different bases:
    - CM11 based ROMS
    - PAC
    - Omni

    So, I'll release 3 different versions for these, and we can see which version fits other ROMS as well.

    But that's just in case :D

    Sorry to have kept you all waiting so long
