If you don't mind I'll share my three home screens. Using nova launcher to add dual launching gestures to the dock icons.

Samsung galaxy s3 on CM10 nightly. Jelly bean is great!

I'm on CM 9.1 but I'm thinking about trying CM10. Any major issues with the latest build? Do you know if I'll have an issue with going back to a CM9 nandroid if I decide to? I tried an Omega JB ROM and it messed up my wifi.

Let's see.. latest (until tonight's 9/3) is 9/2 and people are saying stable, but one issue I see popping up here and there is a 3 second incoming call delay. When you pick up and you can't hear them for 3 seconds or so. That's the case with me, so I pick up, wait like 2 seconds before saying hello lol. Other than that, I got NFC + Google wallet set up. I heard wifi tether may be broken also but some people have claimed it works. I haven't tried.

4G speeds are still good, 20up/down. There is an LCD flicker that pops up that you can get rid of by a developer option check, but it is reset on reboot so you have to check it again.

Its disable hardware overlay.

Here's a screenshot from my phone

Just check that and flip the switch on developer options and the flicker is gone!

I am waiting for a stable build of CM10 before messing with it. I had enough fun trying to ensure I always had a stable build of CM9 with my Touchpad. With my phone, I don't like having anything 'not' work. Just can't take that chance.

CM9 for the TouchPad isn't as easy as ROMs for phones. Building everything from the ground up with no Android source is harder than modifying a kernel and building a ROM. Try it and you'll fall in love!

Can't risk it. I have Nandroid backups saved (and it is easy to reflash), but even still I am running the stock ROM, just rooted. My phone is so critical to me, including tethering to my Nex7 at work. I know these nightly builds are better than the ones for the Touchpad, it is just a risk I can not take.

I understand. Everyone has different needs. I leave my mobile devices for modding (like flashing ROMs, etc.) But i keep my computers stock

Damn things are getting cool!

This is a bit clumsy but I can see the potential:

I was quite impressed with the battery yesterday while I was messing with widget locker and beautiful widgets (which is on sale for labour day btw). So I thought I would include a shot with battery life also!
Wow!

You've done a very nice job with yours. I like the colors, the contrast, and the positioning of the various screen elements. It's a great look!

Cheers :)

Aww gee! Thanks :D I have since changed my MMS icon to a grey circular icon to match with the theme.

This is what I envision...

"Well, officer. I'm not exactly sure how it happened. All I know is one second I'm reading this email from my girlfriend that's floating in front of my face, and the next I'm airborne, and there's all these kids on the hood of my car, screaming and griping on for dear life".

LOL!! You have a point there!
