stop teasing man lets get this fired up and running :)

Beta 1 is out NOW

it has some minor flaws. like i had the walkman working.. now i broke it. you have to set up your icons the way you want yourself, the launcher only see the official sony apps... which btw, all of them are working except walkman,
i still wanted to get an extended power menu. but thats proving harder than it should be.
also the default wallpaper isnt setting like i want.
also i cant include chrome as a system app. or even with the rom like i want...
chrome doesnt like being a system app.

anyone know how to fix some of these issues ?

iam sure i could. but time is a little tight right now

Now thats wierd. Ive run And flashed And flashed And flashed some more And never had an issue. But i will look into it.

i thought so as well..that's why i tried many different options to see what worked

I usually have issues with downloads from work..corrupted etc. so i came home and got a fresh copy and did the usual complete wipe before flash same issue

even tried to flash right over the top of it even though was no different just because install script wipes system every time

OH BTW: is there any settings to get rid of navbar?

The last line in.build.prop. Labeled enable navbar. Just ent it out by placing a # in front of it.
Do far.. How you like it?

well so far so good...it's really peppy, no lag just point and click...which is what i like! it kinda reminds me of nemus launcher a bit!

i really like the gallery! oh did you know that xperia home FC's when selecting themes?

course whats buggin me is not getting to try out the new kernel...it's my opinion that a good kernel is the basis for any good rom...don't mean to downplay your work at all, i really like the look and feel. it's something different and refreshing :)

EDIT: new issue..no matter how i try to edit build.prop to turn off navbar on reboot freezes between green android and boot animation
