How do you flash this file?

I accidentally named it without the proper 7z (7 zip) extension. I have renamed the file.

Figured that was it. Just flashed and will try it out today. I'll post more tonight. Thanks

Just revert to the old version of PIE and you're good to go!
Regedit: \Local Machine\Security\Internet Explorer\MSTML = 0

Cheers!

Other notes about this ROM:
1) Yes, the battery icon fix cab works here too
2) It has MortScript preinstalled (at least it said so when I tried to install it)
3) code and +1 autoadd services are disabled, which make my international user flashing experience much easier.
4) The alt character key in my TP doesn't work, so there is no way for me to insert accented characters or underscores anymore!

The last one is the one that may turn me off what is a great ROM so far!

Thanks!

So far seems to be stable and run smoothly. As mentioned above the alt key functions as a space bar. The top left button no longer functions as airplane mode on/off, which i assume is a regedit fix along with the end button not locking the screen. Call history blurs when scrolling quickly and stays muddled. Had to add s2u2 to lock screen. Haven't had a chance to see how this impacts battery life yet. It does indeed have mortscript installed. Will continue to use through the night and more comments to follow. By the way, I really like the "look" of this rom.

Tried this rom out last night, but only 'cause i was quickly looking for another rom that had the 'Update PRI', 'Update Profile', and IOTA phone preference thing (long story.) But using it briefly made me curious, what are RealVGA people doing to deal with the garbled volume and battery icons?
