Kinda. it just doesn't open up my txt service when I click on it, but it still gives me the update and dismisses it when i click on it.

Disable or freeze the stock messenger app and Handcebt should be default. That is how mine is and handcent is on the locksceen and voice commands opens handcent.

I agree with this... I just froze the default messaging app with TiBu. Works fine.

anyone know how to get google calendar to sync

[SpyderMan]

james, check in Menu->Settings-> & under the Personal heading go for Accounts & Synch & be sure your Gmail account is associated w/the phone & that you have Sync turned on...

Battery weirdness. Using phone like normal. Was using Skype when I had the WiFi on and streaming Google music after that (this is where the line flattens out). Left my phone alone while driving home (no streaming more) get home and turn on the "flashlight" (method 5 in widgetsoid) and then turn off after a few seconds and suddenly my phone reboots and I have this? Any ideas? Never had an issue like this before on Arctic v2 or ArctichHD .01. I'm on a Razr Maxx so this kind of battery life is not good...

AGAIN,guys with battery problems,don't use google now and give phone couple days to settle with battery-majority of people having no problems with rom,so if your having problems you are adding things,changeing things or something,give these devs a break

Ok, I see you still have this issue. I'm going to offer a few suggestions (in order from basic to advanced). These steps are not dependent of each other. In other words, if a suggestion fixes your issue, then stop. What you do with your phone... I will not be responsible.

First question: Is there any message in the notifications? Or just the "Sync not available" message in Settings - Accounts?
2nd: In your calendar app, did you select at least one Google calendar to sync?
3rd: Is this a personal gmail account? Or is it an enterprise Google Apps account?

1) Check to make sure you're not running low on memory. Calendar won't sync if this is the case.
2) Delete the Gmail account in Settings-Accounts. Recreate it.
3) If this is a corporate Google Apps account, then ask your IT about group policies.
4) If this is a personal account, do you have 2-step verification sign-on? If you do, then you have to use the calendar-specific password, not your Gmail sign-on.
5) Clear data for Calendar Storage in Settings - Apps. Reboot phone.
6) Download Synker from the Play store, that app has a function called Sync Inspector. It shows you what happens when your phone attempts to sync. I haven't had to use it in a while, but I believe it costs $1.99 for the unlock key to get more a more detailed log. It will show the last sync failure message, what account it's syncing, etc.
7) If necessary, perform a factory reset on the phone.
8) If all else fails, reflash the ROM per the ROM's designer's instructions.

Well, if he's able to sync gmail, then he would have had to be syncing from the correct account..... unless he uses calendar from another gmail account.

Amen brother.
(I myself probably can't survive without Google Now. Having the ability to pose a question, and it responds orally.. can't beat that. I carry an iPhone 4S too, and this beats Siri in many aspects. By the way, I get 27 hours with Google Now on the Maxx.)

I wasn't getting that with Google now turned off.

At the lower left of the 2nd image, that widget shows when my battery will be depleted. It's 9:35am as I'm posting this, my phone will die in 15 hrs. It's been off the charger 15 hrs ago. Granted, I did sleep for 5 hours during which I didn't use the phone, lol.

Matt, as usual, another outstanding rom.

[boneill1031]

Seriously considering installing this. Never installed a rom on the RAZR... been pretty happy with stock. Aside from Google plus, widget, battery percentage, and slight theme, what other sorts of differences are there?

Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

Better CPU control with governor options, better speed and battery life tweaks, DSP manager (beats audio basically), all around faster more stable than stock. Anything these guys make is always pretty much amazing

I'm not complaining about battery life. I know it takes time to settle. My main point was the random reboot that happened... before updating I was hitting 22 hours and only at 30ish percent. No battery complaints here so far it's been better than arctic

Here is something I haven't seen on here - If I disable Google now on my RAZR, then it is also disabled on my Nexus 7 that uses that Google account as well. This is bad, as I like using it on Nexus 7. Looks like it is gonna be hard to overcome this... so I just leave it enabled. Loving the ROM though. Circle widget is awesome! Thanks again.

[silvania34]

Awesome rom fellas. I just wanted to know the settings/apps some of you guys with Maxx's are using for best performance/battery life. After 5 days, using pegasusq and SIO, google now turned off, 1.2ghz/300mhz, CPU sleeper, and everything else (4G, gmail sync, tweetcaster sync, automatic brightness) is on, and I'm getting about 15-18 hours each charge. Is this normal? Would Hotplugx work better? Should I wait a little longer for the rom to settle in?

Thanks in advanced for any help.
