Thanks! Got 4.5.6 up and running.
This rom is the only one I know of that has the few customizations I want:
1. CRT animation off
2. lockscreen left/right panel outline flash/reminder off
3. slide to left for camera on lockscreen circle
4. no vibration when unlocking screen (maybe that was in stock 4.2, can't remember)
What can I say... I'm really attached to 4.1.1 stock, but love a few things about 4.2...
Now I just need to figure out how to (1) get rid of the blue glowing animation in the notification shade -- I just want it stock -- I'll make the shade animation myself if I can figure out how -- I don't see any flashable zips of them anywhere so I don't know the structure, and to (2) get the stock boot animation installed. I didn't like the stock JB boot animation one in sourcery tools... it flashed on and off, like fading in and out in addition to the colored animation... I like it better just like stock 4.1.1 boot animation, subtle and clean. Maybe I (or someone else), can add the stock JB 4.1.1 boot animation to the tools list?
Also, I'd like to be able to change the windows animation scale, for some reason it doesn't work from developer options in settings for any of the 4.2 roms I've tried. Specifically, I like to press the power button and have the screen simply turn on and off without and fading in or out. But I think windows animation scale in stock settings on 4.1.1 affected the autobrightness smooth transitions.
That brings me to one other mod I would love, is to be able to adjust auto-brightness transition levels, speed, etc.. I think some rom had that, cant remember which one. Found it! Settings>Display>Brightness>Adjust.
Would love to be able to manually enter the brightness percentage numbers though...
Also, anyone have any luck odexing this rom with odexme or something else? Does it make it a bit snappier? I get a little lag compared to stock, for example in bringing up recent apps, and opening and closing certain apps. Nothing major, but I thought it might have to do with being deodexed.
sorry - long winded post...

possible bugs:
btw, I had the download of 4.5.5 seemingly stop and disapeer when I accidentally turned the phone into landscape mode... maybe it was still going on in the background though. I just reselected it and it started downloading again, and no problems flashing it.
also, when I cast some of the magic spells, like changing notification or status settings, the wallpaper resets to jbsourcery default. Not sure if that is a bug or not.
LTE signal seems to have a bit more trouble when moving around, it will get weak and stay weak, rather than getting stronger when I move around my house to a location with better signal. But that might take some time to stabilize... the phone did automatically dial and self-program after initial boot with 4.5.5.
