There's one bug I just discovered... If you turn off the screen manually, the button backlights stay on. If you let the screen go off by itself, the backlights turn off. I'm working on figuring it out.

I can confirm this also .... going to go over and flash your updated bam and take it for a quick ride ...

Okay I'm not really sure what to do about it... I tried removing the button brightness option from the device tree completely but it seems to have a mind of its own. Unfortunately, ChaOS doesn't have the kitkat sources posted for most of its devices so I don't know how they normally would have it set.

Darn, I was hoping you'd have a quick fix. Ive been wanting to try out ChaOS for some time now. Maybe I'll still give it a go just for kicks.

There have been similar issues on various devices with various ROMs from time to time, I think there's an app in the Play store meant to remedy button brightness bugs. I'm off to school now, hopefully I'll have time to work on it more tommorrow.

I'm thinking that's probably an issue with the ROM itself, but I'll look into that as well

Right on. I'm not sure if the theming has been added back into kit kat yet, I haven't played with it too much.
Hey have you seen anything like the button backlight issue I'm experiencing with the ROMs you've built? I thought it had to do with the overlays but now I'm not so sure

Never had an issue with button backlights
There's an overlay in the config file for capacitive button brightness
Do you have it?

Absolutely. The reason I haven't done another release it is because I couldn't figure out the button backlight problem so I kind of got frustrated and gave up. My device tree is on my github if you want to use it, just needs to be updated with the latest cm commits.
