Root [ROM] MegaTron 6.2.5

Ive been messing around with the rom for a few days and I do like it. It seems pretty stable. But I do have a few questions/comments. 1)ES File Explorer can not be updated or uninstalled. 2)What in the world does the app OMG!!! dcsms do? I take it that it must be some kind of sms app, but it seems kinda weird. 3)Any chance on changing the lock screen picture from the standard Boost lock screen to something MegaTron? 4) I noticed in the MegaTron settings that when I attempt an update it says one is available, but its version 6.1. I assume I should not download this, correct?

Should be able to update it, to uninstall it use a root app and remove it from the system. the Dcsms app is used to control the widgets, open the app and swipe from the left to the right tap on power widgets and boom! yeah i'll change the lockscreen wallpaper in the future, i registered this phone earlier this year when 6.1.1 was out so i set it up with the updating account to say 6.1.1, forgot to change it but it wouldnt have updated your phone cause the download link was blank.

Alrighty. Thanks. I completely forgot that it may have been placed as a system app (Doh!). Other than that it seems pretty good. Whats funny is Ive been using CTmod for so long that using this rom gives me the sense of cheating on CTmod :D

i have been loving this rom but i also had some questions that im sure everyone is aware of but i just wan to ask any ways
when ever i use the swipe to clear notifications my notification bar crashes and force closes
also when i go to settings then megatron settings and click on toggle settings it force closes
the omg dcms theme tab wont open aand force closes
are these all normal beta issues? i know its still a work in progress but so far these are the only issues i have had with the rom

One more thing; I looked in the settings and saw the option to have no lock screen but it doesn't seem to work. I actually have an alternative lock screen installed but often see the default lock screen pop up first.

I can probably just use NoLock or whatever it's called, but thought I'd throw this out there anyway.

I noticed that you still cant change the color or shut off the clock in the notification bar.

Thanks for letting me know will also fix in next update.

idk is that option stock on prevail? maybe try the widgets? i think theres one to disable lockscreen.

Disabling the lock screen isn't available on the stock rom as far as I know. CTMod did have a widget in the task bar that worked for this. I didn't see it in MegaTron though. I even checked OMG!!! dcsms and didn't see it in there either. It's not a huge deal, but it was nice when I was able to disable the default lock screen.

If you have a different screen locker app, check the settings to see if you can disable the stock screen lock. I use Widgetlocker and it has that option.:D

I'm using the Locket lock screen. It's still in beta so hopefully they'll get on that soon. It's not the greatest lock screen, but you can earn up to 3 cents in an hour for having ads in the lock screen. Takes awhile but I have a little over $7 in my account so far. I'd post my referral link to try go get more but I feel like that'd be like spamming lol.
