OK FOUND A BUG. This has happened four times now. Open browser, visit a site, press the physical menu button more than once, and for me, the screen flickers and then if the screen is turned off the phone reboots. I have menu animations set to 2.0 which may be causing it.

Can't replicate, did you clean flash this?

I came from Cn (A) Rom. Wiped everything 2x each, running instigators jb kernel. I counted it happening after the fourth time opening the menu in the browser.
Instigator kernel is outdated and doesn't play nice with jb 4.1.2

I used to include it in all my roms, but with the latest updates to jb I no longer use it. Stock kernel provides a better user experience right now in my opinion.

ok guys this is a post to offer my suggestions on running this rom to its full potential.

first off clean flash if you don't im going to laugh at you if you ask for help.

use the stock kernel. as this is the only kernel i run i will not help you support others as i can not replicate most issues attributed to it.

radio is your pick whatever works best for your area

the ondemand gov. worked perfect for me thus far as has the interactive gov

i haven't scaled the cpu down yet but will try to drop down to about 1.2 or so.

screen brightness i mod as i see fit but i dont use auto

as far as tools i use android tuner pro which is on the play store yes its expensive but for all the control it gives me its worth far more
cpu tuner
build prop editor
task killer (yes i use it but i only do it on apps that i know wont open again and only after closing the apps properly holding home and swiping away)
battery monitor (showing apps using my battery and how much, showing usage statistics, graphs out usage over 7 days avail%, ma,temp,voltage,mW,and usage %/hr).
logcat
file manager
terminal emulator
backup and restore apps
and a ton more

i don't go super deep into tweaking guys i dont look for 500hrs on my battery but i can tell you that with what little i do i can get through a workday and get home mindmajick has seen my screenshots of times ive done 10 hours with 6 hours screen on i promise you that if you are careful and aren't looking for infinite battery life this rom will treat you right i know that if you guys want to go deeper that T.J. over at xda can help you with wakelocks and such hes a good dude and always willing to help.

also if you guys have any questions please please feel free to ask me as my stance has always been to help as long as you read search and know wtf your doing ask majick sometime how me and him met lol he knows my rules and my stance

Ok I reflashed the Rom without instigators kernel and the screen flickering bug sent away. But still no web browser sync.
Ok. You could try the new Google apps package here: http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip

But I recommend you do a backup first. I'm not certain if the NORMAL gapps are ok for this..

Edit: I read over in xda someone installed them fine on PA.. But your call

Ok installed this version of Google apps and browser sync has appeared. So this must be installed when flashing this Rom.
