[REVIEW][GLACIER][JB] Dark JellyBelly v3

First off, a special thanks to ...Awesome... for making this great rom.

Performance:
Its great, I could really feel the fluidity of the AOKP build. I thought it was better than the ports in terms of performance, if you like the performance of Dark Unicorn Resurrected, you'll love this. Also, the kernel is freaking awesome but i must say, i do prefer the Grapefruit kernel.

Asthetics:
Same old Same old. Its basic jellybean stuff. What i don't like is the navigation bar at the bottom that CANNOT be removed. I know that ...Awesome... is working on it but it was the main reason that i left the rom. I really couldn't deal with all that wasted screen space when there are hardware buttons. If you have a problem with this like i do, i suggest against flashing this rom.

Battery Life:
The kernel/rom combo produced battery life i little worse than ICS but it was great. I was able to get through the day with no issues, about 2.5 hours of screen time, mostly texting people.

Things I loved:
-A lot of options in Aroma, that was done well
-The Kernel, that thing is great
-Performance

Things I didn't like:
-Inferno Apps. What the hell ...Awesome...? The web browser is horrible, the first thing i did was deleted the .apk and you should too

Things I can't live with:
-THE NAV BAR

Final Thoughts:

If you are ok with the nav bar and want a Jellybean rom, this is for you. If you don't like the nav bar, still give it a try but make sure you have a nandroid of your favorite rom.

Great job ...Awesome...!
