Root [THEME] CM7 Reloaded Xperia Remix

This is a Themed CM7. I used Whyzors CM7 TG-Reloaded Rom and just added some goodies(;

Changes Since Whyzors Build:

-Added ConfredChris's Boot Animation
-Took off the ADW launcher and put in The Xperia launcher
-Added the Xperia Widgets

And Heres What Happend Before this Rom From Whyzor
- Default kernel based on TheOC kernel with overclocking/undervolting options. (Beware of OC risks, it's not overclocked unless you intentionally change settings)
- Improved UI response without giving up battery or performance by switching to Interactive governor & SIO scheduler as default
- Stock touchscreen driver with my rewrite & optimizations.
- Kernel fixes for the occasional "can't go into deep sleep mode until reboot" bug.
- Intentional BT wake_lock added for better Bluetooth reliability when powered on.
- BT & Wifi can now be enabled together without 100% CPU usage.
- Wifi connects to hidden SSIDs also & scans faster.
- Improved camcorder video (h264@4/2/0.5 Mbps) & audio (AAC 64kbps @ 44khz) encoding & focusing. Compatible with a wider variety of SDcards.
- Improved light sensor readings for auto-backlight tuning in CM settings.
- Fixed sluggish accelerometer bug after long time since last reboot.
- Extended time for "hold back button to kill app" to 3 seconds to prevent accidental kills.
- Restored default Android lowmemkiller settings (Can still be changed in /etc/init.d/99memory)
- Disabled DEBUG mode & most debug messages for DalvikVM, kernel, & modules for a leaner & faster ROM.
- Disabled HDMI service from start up since it's not working anyway
- ICS Roboto font default instead of DroidSans

Other Updates since TG's B0.8 from CyanogenMod 7.2-RC0 Gingerbread 2.3.7:

- T9 predictive search for contacts in phone dialpad
- Customizable Carrier Label in Settings
- ICS Ring (+blade) lock, rotation & transition animations
- Bluetooth external GPS dongle support
- Bootup animation & scrolling cache disable options, BT quickconnect, lock volume keys in quiet mode option

Known Problems:

- HDMI does not work (Keep a Froyo backup if need to use it occasionally)
- BT or WiFi enabled will prevent deep sleep mode. (Use built-in Notification bar widget to toggle)
- Some videos in portrait mode flickers. (Enable CM settings 180 orientation & flip upside down)
- Volume sometimes low (use DSP manager or volume+ app as workaround)
- Left/right swipes in notification bar can freeze the system (use the CLEAR button instead)
- Camera does not write correct EXIF data.




This Rom is very good Whyzor has done a good job but I just wanted a little more (:
If you want your status bar and icons like mine go to android market---->search----> steel blue cm7 theme and download that it looks really good with this,

Just curious, why Xperia? The ADW Launcher has many more features. Also, why do we need to download your ROM if it's only 3 changes that we can easily do by ourselves?
 
i used steel blue cm7 theme in the market the next release i will have it built in.


I just gotta say man that this is an awesome ROM. The launcher is superb and so damn smoov. Def my new daily. Thanks again for sharing this awesome creation with us man. The only prob I'm having is under cm settings. Every time I select input, fc. Everything else is great though.

Whyzor (the dev whose Triumph CM7 ROM this one is based off of) says this:
I can confirm the CM settings - input FC. It may be something wrong with CM7's latest changes, probably some language translations. If you don't use that setting much, I recommend still upgrading to build 02-02 or at least kernel 1-31. it should keep your settings from previous builds.

It will be fixed in the newest build from whyzor and ill add the customizations I made to this one to that one and maby a little more like boot animations icons things like that many some new launcher and htc theme comming just need the word and ill make a htc themed one
 
Love the ROM, very smooth and silky. One question though. When i press the video icon in the Media Shortcut Widget nothing happens. Is there a config file or something i should tweak or is there a widget settings option that I do not see. TIA for you help and good stuff again.
