I'm liking it so far. Seems to be worthy of being a daily driver.

I love having my toggles back in the notification drawer and the exanded desktop feature is great.

Still need to tap on "Build Number" to get developer options and i wasn't able to get the Cyanogenmod easter egg.

I got my gapps from here Goo.im Downloads - Downloading gapps-JOP40C-Gesture-Photosphere-Wallet.zip

You don't have to 'root', you just have to unlock the bootloader and flash a recovery.

This. The ROM comes rooted.

I'm liking it so far. This is my first time trying CyanogenMod. I've previously used AOKP on the S3. I would have went with AOKP again but, it's still in preview mode and too buggy for me to try right now for a primary phone. This rom is just like stock and very stable. I like that battery percentage can be added as well as quick toggles to the notification area. One of thngs things I like about AOKP is the abiltiy to have a different lockscreen wallpaper and lockscreen apps, I'm not sure if this is coming to CM10.1 or not.

How is the normal battery consumption in 10.1? Better then stock ROM?

Use the gapps from the second post.

You will get updates from the cm updater under settings-about phone. You may have to reflash gapps after updating.

How are the new Quicksettings? I haven't used CM since the change to make them like the notification power widget was merged.

If you want updates direct from Google you should use google's stock ROM.

Flash the gapps from the second post after flashing the latest nightly and you should get gesture typing back.

You will need to download the files first before going into recovery. Use the " install zip from SD card" option to flash the rom then the gapps file.

I have the files already the nightly cyanmod and gapps and flashed but nothing happened. Or do i need to download different files?

If i wanted to get rid of cyanmod 10 how would i get rid of it and get the default rom?

It good. Some of the quick settings don't sync with the power widget but I just stopped using the power widget. The icons are a little inconsistent with the coloring and I would like to be able to change the ordering but it works and the potential is there to almost never need to go into settings.

I saw that some fixes were uploaded today, still not merged but they are being worked on. Same with the ability to change the order.
