  • 3D effects have been removed from the launcher to reduce lag
  • The ability to remap the recent apps and home buttons.
  • A fix for weak Wi-Fi signals

[NOTE] We want to remind our readers that installing custom ROMs is not recommended unless you are fully aware of the consequences of doing so. Proceed at your own risk

Remember this is still running Ice Cream Sandwich. We cant wait to see how it does with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and its buttery smoothness.
