Never tried a non stock ROM, so what say ye? I like what I have read - any downsides to me just downloading it & flashing? Still on GC01 rooted stock.

Make a nandroid then try it and find out if you like it. If you don't, then you can go back. That is the best way to see if you will like a ROM.

I just tried it and liked it and also scored a 5300 on quadrant standard at 1600Mhz max clock. I just switched back to a stock GC01 because I didn't like how it says touched by an s4 on the lock screen, but im just really pickey about that kind of stuff because I want everything to look stock.
It seems like their might have been some other performance tweaks on it though because the stock rom seems less responsive, and also I miss the new TW skin/theme so im wanting to switch back now.
Does anyone know if there is a way to get the s4 skin by itself in just a flashable zip or something?

Here you go man, I still had it on my sd card, move to your sd card, do a backup and install from recovery, wipe dalvik cache and reboot.............

I actually Just installed it a couple days ago and its beatiful and run with absolutely no issue. Everthing works including GPS. Just make sure to follow the thread for fixing MMS which is really easy to fix. I was using baked bean before that and im so glad i made the switch back to a TW rom.

Thinking bout trying this ROM tonight. Can anyone let me know whether it has the option to play next notifications during calls? My current ROM either doesn't or I can't find it and it's causing me some drama with the ladies when I'm on the phone with one and not answering texts from another LOL

LMAO well I don't have your problem(lucky guy lol) but im assuming it does because it has a widget color for it or its just the incoming color but mine is a different color than this, check it out.................

I tried the flashable launcher from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261900 , but its still not working. I guess im missing something? I tried erasing cache and dalvik before and after the flash.

Hmm I haven't had any issues, as long as you have a recovery installed and do a factory reset and then install the zip.....

I have to say its the best TW rom out there, it does run buttery smooth, fast, OCed and a lot of cool stuff, a lot more than most but the only thing, in dock mode cant get it to flip lol, my case has a stand that kicks out so you can set it on your desk and don't see a setting for when its in lock screen to flip horizontal and the drop down toggle doesn't work in lock screen like a lot of the aosp roms do, other than that its one of my favs.........

My connection optimizer keeps force close I want to turn it off and also when I was on this rom before there was a video player on here that would let you pop it up in a little box and let you watch it and do other stuff it is not on here anymore

The default video player for GB27 (even the original leaked one has it) will allow you to make the video play in a floating box. I know you should be able to put it back from a backup or pulling it out of the rom and pushing it to your phone. The network Optimizer is in settings/wireless and networks/mobile networks. You can also freeze/remove the app with Titanium Backup.

It is called Sprint connections optimizer. Scroll down to the sprint stuff in TB. The name is long so it will be a bit truncated in the list of applications that TB shows.

Use the one from the TBSGS4 thread, that one works. The S4 Launcher only works on AOSP right now, but g_ding84 made an S4 themed launcher that looks exactly the same.
