And what groundbreaking tweaks and features can we expect when it comes? :p Governor fix too?
Working on that n carrier banner atm.

My usual bag of tricks, plus borrowed ideas from mt and added cmscreenshots, used the Black Chrome theme Shiny ported over. When I post the ROM it will have my normal OP layout with description etc etc. ;)

Haha I'll keep my eyes on this thread lol So does the ROM have a different name?
