The only difference between 04NOV2012 and 05NOV2012 is the 4.2 camera.

Newer 4.2 has working editing tools, and photosphere loads, but doesnt properly read gyros.

If you have an issue and you want to call our attention, here's what you do:

1. Try everything you can, find solutions for yourself. Wipe caches, revert all your settings you have made, go back to your stock Kernel, factory reset if you have to or reflash the rom. Assume that the issue is on your side and try your best to isolate it.

2. Search this thread and Cyanogenmods aswell (its our base) for possible reoccurences of your issue and hopefully solutions that may have come up.

3. If you think the issue is important enough that we should cease our work and look into it, post your issue, BUT ...

... stay friendly, do not demand anything, do not threaten

... explain your issue as precise as you can, name the exact apps and conditions that cause trouble, help us to replicate the issue right away. If we can't there's no way we can fix it and your post will simply clutter the thread

... collect evidence, keep in mind this is a developer thread so even if you are not one, do us the favor and research how to record logcat. logcat is the single most important help you can give us to resolve your issue.

Epic Specific Changes:

[2.54] Bug fixes to aroma scripting. Added 4.2 market and 4.2 modded desk clock.

[2.53] Converted to aroma installer. Transparent notifications, 4.2 cam and 4.2 keyboard available in installer.

Aroma installer is an installer GUI

It allows you to select what you want to install, and puts all additions into one file. (no need for 15 zips, just 1)

Decided to leave Gapps out for now and fixed it to where the 4.2 items don't need it.

Install your own gapps as desired. I may pick out certain apps to put into the installer, but the total size was over 120 megs more. Way too much.

Keyboard installs as an additional keyboard. Tried to do it as a replacement but had a lot of force closes. If you choose it on install, it should be selected as default.

If it is not default or you want to change between keyboards, go to settings-> lang& input -> default keyboard.

Android Keyboard (AOSP) - Stock keyboard with no swype

Android Keyboard - 4.2 Keybaord with swype

No theme created for now, as something in paranoid is messing with transparency. Going to take my time with this one. Plenty of themes out there if you need one.

Camera now removes old camera and gallery. You can restore this through the aroma installer

To switch between cameras, just rerun the installer and select only the camera you want.

transarency and stock notifications are available. choose wisely. rerun and select the one you want to change it out.

[2.51] Replaced the bootani with the one from 1.99. Boot time is crazy good now. This will be a change in future releases as well.

Issues:

[2.23-2.50] Play Store FC's on certain DPI --- Workaround by Nashdogg (make sure DPI is at phone and 240, clear data from the app and reboot). If this fails install a hacked market.

[2.23+] Issues with NavBar buttons on the ends not working. Range issue with DPI?

[2.23-2.50] The first boot is too damn long!

Features Reqs:

NavBar features from AOKP

Notification Drawer Options from AOKP

Toggles Enabled by Default
