This rom works flawlessly so far. Thanks for the port BSydz.
It's literally been a year without a camera on my phone. I don't know if I'll even be able to remember that I can take pictures of things now - at least for a little while.

I haven't tried navigating yet but WOW!! Touch screen works perfectly and never misses a touch. I also installed all of my crap and it is still mostly lag free. The last version i would sometime count to three before things opened or responded. I would like to steal the code name "project butter" from jelly bean and apply it to this rom!! I used my friends triumph CM7 and it felt so slow compared to this rom. Great Job!!
Guys, Guys, Guys... the facelock issue is because of the intall-optional.sh in ver2 symlinked Gapps, as I already stated. I edited it to make more room in /system. And more than likely the errors with regular Gapps is the space issue and not having all needed files. I'm not too good with scripts yet, so this may take a minute. I got the script worked out to get everything in the right spot, but now for some reason the symlinks for /system/vendor are not being created. I think that the folders need to be created for the symlinks to be put there. But, if that were the case then how does Ver2 make the symlinks but after changing the install-optional.sh it won't make the symlnks. I'll get it all figured out, just give me a little while. More than likely Ver1 of the symlinked Gapps should work for now.
I don't think it stems from Google Now, I used M7 with CM9 and Face Unlock was present, switched to lennyv4 and it was still there.
I've only used the symlinked Gapps with PA (and only used the regular with CM9); I don't think I've ever seen Face Unlock in my PA security settings. I assumed it was the Rom, but that's ruled out now of course.
I think Bsydz is on the right track, as always

Look on the bright side, at least you've got a ton of happy testers on your side!
Also, anyone notice how generally nice the staff of this site is?
I posted a carrier question in the Motorola Triumph all things root section, and I had it moved by a guide, they sent me a message in a very kind attitude telling me they moved it, and they gave me a link to it.
Compare it to another site, which I won't mention their name -Cough- XDA -Cough- where they would just bash you with negative comments.
Another time I changed my name from firecrotch666 to Lobster, since there's no way to do it on your edit page, I asked a mod, and he asked an admin to do it for me, they worked with me so smoothly and quickly, and they were very nice about it too!
Gosh I love this place.
Thanks for the detailed feedback.
I haven't even looked at the Thunderbolt, I did take some stuff from the Xperia Play ICS kernel though, since it is the same version as ours.
Maybe, I just haven't given it much thought. I started PA, just so I could get more familiar with ICS and try to start fresh, since our CM9 has had sooooo many hands in the jar.
Yes. A big THANKS for all the feedback

Don't sweat it BSyds.
It'd be cool if we got AOKP, in fact I think we already had it but it hasn't been updated in so long.
I'd do anything to relive the AOKP experience, or at least have a newer version of Paranoid Android, this one's a bit old now. Either way, I love what you've done so far

Been using the May 6 build for a few days and I really like the overall performance! I still am noticing a touchscreen issue. I have to hit the icon a few times to get the app to start. But, I notice that if you push just a bit to the left of the icon, it seems to work better. Almost like the screen calibration is off. Is there a place in the settings to calibrate the touchscreen? I thought that option was available to us before, I could be wrong.
Thanks!!!
Thanks!!!

GPS is working for me, however it took 10 minutes to get a lock, which I suppose is essentially the same as not working

While testing I found that there is not enough space on /system for even the regular Gapps, by like a MB or two. Facelock would open but not work so I looked and there was 2 MB free on system and system/vendor/pittpatt was a couple MB less that what it should be. Pittpatt is were the facelock stuff is stored. CM9 is lighter than this ROM so regular Gapps shouldn't be an issue with that. I have fixed the syminked Gapps now, just find the link in the OP, or it just got bumped when I updated it, so it should be at the top of the forum for a minute.
Symlinked Gapps is now updated, I fixed the facelock issue. Details above and in the symlinked Gapps thread.

Does anyone else find this a bit creepy of Google?
I wonder what they do with all those photos of your face when you unlock your phone.
I also find some features in Google Now a bit scary, useful but scary.
Such as, it knows when a package is coming to your home, it gives you an ETA on when you'll arrive home from say a friends house. It's just.. weird, anyone else agree?

I found this, and used it on my dev phone, dunno if it really did anything, but didn't seem to hurt.
[APP] Touch Screen Calibration App - [G-TABLET\ZPAD T2] - SlateDroid.com
Finally installed this last night.
Space Junk Lite freezes right after starting. It eventually gives me the not responding message, and I can kill it, but then if I try to run it again, it freezes again (obviously), but the only way out is to pull the battery. (The app worked on CM7.)
A similar app, Satellite AR works, though phone movement tracking is very sluggish, but it often was sluggish on CM7 too.
Google Maps is working fine, and I used GPS navigation tonight, and it was fine. GPS lock speed was reasonable, though it's no Optimus V in that regard. I took some pictures too, so the camera seems fine. And I tested about 30 other assorted apps, which all worked fine.
I don't know if touch response is much better than CM7. I especially have issues with the back button, and also seem to have difficulty with in-app buttons if they are near the bottom of the screen.
Also, I miss the lighted soft buttons. But it mostly seems nicer than CM7.

I've been looking for a touch screen calibration app. Thanks!

BSydz you are the MAN!The May 6th ROM is rocking out with it's well you know what out.I haven't had any random reboots at all.Skype video calling is working FLAWLESSLY.No disconnects from Wi-Fi as of yet.The jumbled text has only happened once when I was in file manager trying to move files.And speaking of that file manager likes to keep freezing when I'm transferring multiple pics from one folder to another.And I've only gotten 1 force close message and that was on GAPPS when I first booted up the phone.Otherwise everything else has been silky smooth.Touchscreen is really good tho at times it doesn't want to work if I don't flip my phone to the side.I've only had that issue using KIK messenger.ooVoo works great.Words with friends works smooth.Like I said this ROM is rocking.Thanks again BSydz!And when I get some more money in the kitty I'll drop you some more coffee cash.

This Rom is still super fast and great but i am having trouble getting the auto brightness to work in the sun. When I go outside I can't see anything.
