Hey guys,

Sorry I haven't posted back in a bit, I've been really busy today setting up my brand new custom built computer. I now have 3 times as much storage space and a much faster processor. I'm very excited to see how quickly my builds will complete now.

[MENTION=4729153]slushee[/MENTION] You did nothing wrong on your side, those options are there only to restore/backup your apps/data, contacts and calendar events. For the bln, use a filemanager like ESFile Explorer (since it also has a good text editor called ESNote Editor) set it up for root browsing by pressing your menu button to open the side menu, then scroll to the tools category and click on root explorer, it may pause for a moment while superuser permission is requested, grant it permission and then select Mount R/W and change the first two / and /system to RW and press ok, you now have root access through ESFile Explorer. Now browse to /sys/class/misc/backlightnotification. Open the file "enabled" with the note editor and confirm the value is 1 and not 0. If this is true, then close it and open the blink_control file and change the value from 0 to 1, then save the file. The lights should come on immediately, if so, they are working. Now you can change the value back to 0 in blink_control to turn off the lights. If this worked, I think it may be related to your vm issue. In regards to the reboot menu, this one is strange and have not encountered this yet, so I definitely would love to see a logcat ;) To [MENTION=5411569]formercontra[/MENTION]'s comment, I will add this to the second post later on when my comp is back up and running. In the meantime, to take a logcat, just open your terminal emulator and type the following commands, not typing the $ as it denotes a command on the command line:

This will place a text file at the root of your sdcard called logcat.txt, post that file here ;) In regards to the long press on the search button, I can confirm it is broken and will look into why it is broken, thanks for catching that ;)

For the others who are having difficulty with your sdcards being noticed by windows, are you able remove the external sdcard and see if the computer will read it from a card reader. If it does, it would be a great time to backup that data first, then I would suggest putting it back into the phone and allowing android to format the card. Once formatted by android it should be readable, if not, a logcat would be fantastic so I can investigate the cause. I'm more so concerned about the internal cards though as that is what is used for some apps to function correctly, a logcat if you have this issue would also be very helpful (1 logcat is fine if your experiencing both problems).

Someone had mentioned KitKat :D I'm happy to report that there is already progress there. I first released it Nov. 10 as a beta on G+. It has suffered many bugs since the first build, and I have built it so many times I lost count. The good news is though, that Mr. Cyanogen himself has applied some updates to our kernel and that seemed to fix most of the video issues I was experiencing with KK. Now there are little things that need to be worked out and we definitely need a functioning camera before I release it to the public (not as a beta). Currently the camcorder function of the camera app doesn't work :( But there were many commits I saw to that apps source that I haven't had a chance to build with yet, so those issues may already be fixed, I'm not sure till I review them though.

If I missed any of your bugs, I do apologize and invite you to please remind me ;) I usually keep up with this on an hourly basis, but Christmas has been so hectic for me :)

And... checkout my shiny new title "Recognized Contributor". Without you guys, that would never have happened, so thank you all for your contributions ;)
