As far as battery life, I know that this has been mentioned before, but 4G is a huge battery hog. I have the '4G Toggle' app on my home. Unless I am using a high bandwidth app (zumocast, streaming video, etc ) I leave it on 3G. Almost doubles my battery life.

What is the Toggle app you use if you don't mind me asking???

[veldy]

Funny thing is that on my MAXX, 3G and 4G seem to affect battery usage about equally. That isn't exactly intuitive however, so I can't explain it.

I just got a new RAZR. Coming from stock with bloatware "frozen" via TB. Overall I am satisfied with battery life and speed. What might I expect with this ROM in comparison to stock? Most posts here seem very satisfied.

Totally wipe, load stick 173 Fastboot, reroot, load bootstrap and then Eclipse ROM. My suggestion anyway.

Wound up just doing a data/cache/dalvic wipe, then reinstalling the rom. Everything was back to normal.

Much quicker, longer battery life. This is an excellent ROM, I've tried several others and I have to say the theme + location of additional features such as the statusbar buttons really makes this one shine.

Pure awesomness is what you get. Super fast and responsive. Best rom I have run so far hands down. Actually the first ROM I have even ran on any of my phones that doesn't have odd FC's and erratic oddities. So super solid too.

Thanks. So far so good. Is it possible to use stock messaging? Perhaps from my nandroid? I like the group send/reply and I don't see that setting. I work in sales so I like to reply and send to everyone instead of the messaging app creating individual SMS.

Have you tried Handcent SMS? If I understand you correctly, it has that feature + a massive amount of customization

Nitro has been silent lately. I wonder if he is busy building a new ROM from scratch for us... or even something ICS based.

haha, can somebody get his place under surveillance? maybe sift through his trash for signs of ROM work? redbull / mountain dew cans, etc...? :-)

Only way to turn that off is used spart parts app on the market open the app and make the windows animation to fast...and it should work.

Install handcent SMS, they just did a major update to version 4 and it had every feature you could ever ask for.

Use apkmanager to decompile your framework-res.apk.

Find this file res/values/bools.xml

Change "<bool name="config_animateScreenLights">false</bool>" to "<bool name="config_animateScreenLights">true</bool>"

Recompile then push it back to your phone.

Sorry for all the questions but once I find a rom that I like I like to
customize it and keep it for awhile

Yes I like that one better

I really don't know if you can get that one on this rom, unless you wanna pull apart the rom and put it back in...mostly all the Blur elements have been removed

Is it ok to flash this ROM coming from an ICS ROM. Obviously doing a wipe in CWM of Factory/Cache/Dalvik too.

I have done this multiple times with no issues. I wiped everything as you said. Keep in mind that it seems like each phone sometimes reacts differently but I would say you should be okay.
