What are inverted apps? And this has both Apex and Touchwiz?

Inverted apps take the light background and dark text and change it to a dark background with light text. It is easier on the eyes and can save battery in certain instances. Yes, it has both launchers.

When using Google now, where it shows the Mic icon I'm getting this white box show up from time to time.

You talking about when it spins to search for your answer? Ill look into getting that fixed. It was my first time trying to invert an app on my own. Thanks for the info.

The only bug that I've come across is when I try to add the digital clock widget; it says that there isn't room on the screen, even if it's empty.

I think this is a Apex Launcher issue. It doesn't happen with TouchWiz or Nova Launcher. I will shoot it up to Daze.

Yep, I think you're right... Tried it on the Touchwiz launcher and it worked fine.

It must be hit and miss on Apex also because I can add them all without issues. If the issue keeps happening I will look into going with Nova instead.

I seem to be experiencing weak Wi-Fi too. Its either super low or shows the red X which I'm assuming is no Wi-Fi.

Update: I rebooted and it seemed to work fine bit now back to the way it was and it IS low or not connected. Hmmmmm

I'm just covering all the bases but have you tried resetting your modem and router. I've been watching 3 different threads with this rom and this is the 1st report of weak wifi. Please give the reset a try and let me know if there is any difference.

**brackett5** · 08-13-2012, 08:51 PM

Actually after you said that I'm noticing that if I hold my phone I get great signal and if I lay it down it drops. I'll check that out and let you know .

**dazednconfused1144** · 08-13-2012, 08:53 PM

I haven't changed anything that should affect the wifi signal in the rom. It should be the same performance as the stock rom. Try what skunkape suggested and let us know.

No problem. Sometimes it's the simplest things we forget about...

**Uncle Louie** · 08-14-2012, 09:16 PM

So what's the cell stand by fix for?

I haven't really noticed any issues... In fact, I'm getting pretty snazzy battery life so far.

I'm really surprised this Rom isn't drawing more interest. I said this on another forum and I'll say it again here.

This is a no fuss Rom. You can flash it and forget it. Everything just plain works and works well. Buttery smooth and beautifully themed. The longer i run it the more I appreciate it.

If you want a Rom that simply does what it's supposed to and looks great while doing it. Give it a try. If you try it and like your current Rom better, it's only a nandroid backup away.
