Hi there!

1.  I really like this ROM and think it's modern and stylish.
2.  I know it's been a while since the last post here, development is largely done.

But I've been having a problem and I'm wondering if any of you have an insight.  It's trouble with the Google Keyboard and the Google Play Services apps.  I flashed the ROM on and it was smooth sailing, until google bullied me into updating Google Play Services.  Almost instantly I started getting continuous crash dialogs (Unfortunately, Google Keyboarded has stopped) over and over, to a point where I can barely do anything.  I uninstalled the google play update, and all was well again. 

I've tried everything I can think of to get these apps to play nice.  Cleared keyboard's cache, cleared its data, restarted the phone, cleared the phone's cache, updated the Google Keyboard app to 5.1.23.127065177 (current), restarted into safe mode.  But every time I re-update google play services, it all starts up again.  I can't get the OS to stop using the keyboard.  I'm not sure how to uninstall it, or if that's even the underlying problem.

Any insights would be helpful.
