dang it! I just got elemental X setup and running and now you come out with this :/ I guess I need to do a backup and give it a go :p

Thanks az!

I'm in shock at all the rom choices we have now. AOKP, CM, PACMAN, AOSP (kind of) Elemental X, and now this...all based on 4.2.2...it's rather amazing and completely unexpected. You'd think we had a samsung galaxy with all these roms :p

Honestly, if I were you I would run all the roms to find out which one I like best. This rom is totally new to me though so I guess I must try it.

I'd like to hear what nokoko has to say about it....? Should I try it out?
 
Yeah its nice to have all of these options.
Hope its running smooth!

no luck for me so far. havent downloaded the newest link yet. but it boots. shows the optimizing apps screen.. then hangs and reboots on finishing boot... clean install... no other zips flashed

Lol, it was smooth, I was a bit disappointed in the theme engine, as CM/AOKP themes do not apparently work with it...? I started messing with files and tried to run Icon Themer, which caused a bunch of force closes... I didn't have time to reflash it this morning so went back to AOKP. I'll play with it more tomorrow... It was fine besides the themeing issues.

Use miui themes. They work with this ROM. :)

Yeah, I realize that. I'm not a big fan of miui themes, they always seem pretty cheesy... Was hoping I could mix and match CM themes. Apparently even Miui themes have to be complied just right, so I have to play with it more.
 
Hey guys! I'm psyched to try this out, but I am getting a bootloop after install. A few times it has gone right to the lock screen; other times it loops right after the chameleon boot animation. Are the 20130301 GAPPS the ones we should use, or should I grab the file from nitro's page that seems to be newer? Thanks!

Did you download the older version? I used this one http://androidforums.com/showthread.php?p=5797929 with the 20130301 Gapps and it booted fine.
 
new build is up, says may 5th, should probably be 6th enough stuff was changed in the source files, and it should be more stable, so get the newest version on the website, number 3
 
Hey AZ, file still shows 0505....I am downloading the one that says more stable....that is correct right?

EDIT JINX!

NEVERMIND
 
Yes is still says 0505 for some reason

Oh wait didn't see your edit!

And what launcher is everyone using? I can't seem to find a smooth enough one
