Thank you for this beautiful rom. It is working quiet smoothly. But I still found 2 problems. First problem is that the home button is not working. Second problem is Lock screen is not working. What I mean is that when you wake up phone from sleep, instead of lockscreen you find yourself in the screen you left before putting device into sleep mode. Please tell me how to fix these problems. It would be a great help.

Some experiences with TouchWiz Resurrection V9.5
1) If you install the Google Apps fro this link. You can not connect to Play Store. com.android.vending error. When you skip the installation of Google Apps a connection is made to Google Play Store. Almost all the installed apps where updated (re-installed) automaticly. It take some time. Although Google Play Store has some trouble in finding my phone on my account.
2) The performance is slow. Much slower then with GingerBread.
3) The power usage is extreme. !00% filled battery was back to 15% overnight.
4) Some kind of journal started. All kinds of folders containing a file called journal on my SD. Don’t know how to stop this journal files coming up.
5) My phone will not connect to Samsung KIES anymore. KIES Says no sim-card is present. Place a sim-card. Well the card is in the phone already.
Hope this is some information of some use.
Kind regards
