Do it. It rocks. Very stable and only minor annoyance so far is a rotation bug. But just lock rotation and you'll be good.
Great rom

I cant even get mine to freaking install. it says "starting aroma installer" and never freaking does anything. Im starting to get a bit annoyed with the lack of development for this device.. i thought the SGS2 was supposed to be a great phone..

Thanks i hate CWM touch but its worth it to try this bad boy out thanks again! I had a feeling thats why it wasnt working -.-

works great on my side the only bug i found was ROM CONTROL it fc dont work!...i used non-touch CWM

There is a flashable zip for the rom control. Look for the other thread about chimera vs Hercules .
Works perfect for me.
Be sure to flash in CWM

[MOD] More Mods.. EPM and more

This is an Extended power menu with reboot and download options when you hold the power button down.. Enjoy..
Just flash via CWM.
Only tested on UCLH2.
Remove sms frm call log mod here!
ALL DOWNLOADS BELOW!
All mods are CWM flash able..

Love the mod, but it doesn't work for me. I keep getting continuous "<app name> has stopped" (gmail, facebook, swype to name just a few) after rebooting...?
Then it locks up and keeps rebooting. I am on UCLH2.

If your on anything other than UCLH2 it may not work.. I'm using it on my daily driver...

I am on UCLH2, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed it was a bad download. Trying it again.

Idk why.. I flashed it on mine and running great. But its on my dd I posted ... which is UCLH2..

I could just be talking nonsense, so forgive me if I do. Could this be a odex/deodex problem? Or something zip-align related?
I installed UCLH2 stock, using lite kernel 5.3 and rooted and debloated it myself. I also flashed the CRT off. Which makes it seem that the difference with your DD is odex/deodex or zip-align related, because I did not do anything like that.
Flashing CRT off again seems to fix the problems I previously experienced, by the way.
Correction: Flashing CRT off got it working well enough to back-up my data with Titanium back-up. Had to restore a nandroid because Play store kept failing when I tried to update apps.

Works like a charm dman. Thanks again.

Yes.. my dd is deodexed. If yours is still odexed then that is why it was freezing and rebooting. This includes the android.policy.jar which is deodexed..

Nothing wrong with that. I kinda like the stock rom and would be awesome with a few mods like the extended power menu you just added. That was one of things I missed from custom roms. Once again. Thanks for everything you do.

Haha oops edited for dmans rom.
This should work. No promises, that's why we are testers, taking chances and if it fails, we just go back to our original phone state using a backup we made prior. Don't wanna brick(dunno if that is possible cuz this phone is beautiful) then make sure you backup in recovery

I gave it a go on UCLJ3 earlier, but its not working for me. Holding the power button does something cos I can feel it register, but no screen pops up, then about ten second later it crashes out
It also seems to have stolen my weather widget off my home screen for some reason too.

That's because its not compatible with UCLJ3. As this was built with UCLH2.. as stated in OP

I knew that, but I also knew people would ask the question if it would work, so thought I'd test for myself

It's working for me on the new update ! Although the reboot download not working ! It reboots the phone and just shows a android man quoting "download" not the normal download mode!

My apologies if I have offended you with my comment! I haven't had any trouble with your mod!
I recently flashed the one enewman17 added the tethering fix to, noticed the icon changes. hadn't needed to reboot download mode until yesterday! that's the only part I haven't tested! I've just been working and haven't had a chance to mention it here!
the download mode part wasn't a big deal to me since I hardly use it!

Direction of Lifeless Rom

Hi All,
I'm about to release version 7 of the ROM; however, are there any other modifications people want on the ROM. Mods they saw in other posts that I can possibly implement?
Thanks,

I'm not sure if it has already been added, but I really want Google Now added. That is the biggest thing about JB that I miss

A themed rom would be sweet! It would definitely stand out. ICS dialer would be a great start. Also an optional zip to flash inverted apps.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium

Yea. Anything that like looks/feels like aosp would be awesome. Loving the feel of the aroma installer already.
Sent from my LG Optimus G using xda premium

Extended power menu to reboot straight to recovery.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium

Could you include the on screen keys mod that's in the general section? and maybe the black theme for the quick settings? I like them and don't wanna re flash each time there's a new version
Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 2

i would love to see soft keys and google now

Nocturnal audio mod would be cool
Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 2

All of the above will be awesome ! I would like to see in a little bit more theming to be done specially on the setting page, the dialer and the messaging app. Keep up the good work thank you

blink-flash would not work with my OG

I would like to see a inverted Gmail and Playstore option.
More AOSP-ness. Possibly a trebuchet launcher port?
A direct to recovery option is a must!
I'm having such a difficult time getting to the fast boot menu, and every time I restart I loose 10% battery! Not joking!

Goo manager will boot you into recovery if you want in the meantime.

A boot in recovery option as others have said would be nice im currently using a reboot recovery widget from ROM toolbox pro but it would still be nice.
Also adding the conversation skin mod to aroma would be a good edition

I'll see what I can do with the suggestions.

The one from xsmagical was the only one that I got to work just slightly on my device its cool and all but I could definitely live without it until we get a working one. I personally don't see all the hype about Google now and would much rather see some themeing going on. Just my $0.02

ROM
Had an issue with some LG apps not installing (v9), v10 fixed it however.
Aroma is amazing. It shows you spent your time doing it and doing it right at that. Im in love
Softkeys are a nice touch for phones with a zero bezel frame.
I would love to see some more customized bootloader animations.
Performance boosts and tweaks are awesome.
So far so good. flashed several times with little or no problems.
Overall Very impressed. Keep it coming!

I am using the app "Rom Manager" V 5.5.1.5
It allows you to boot right into recovery without any fiddling in fastboot.
Very cool app. Try it out and let me know if this helps your issue.

sent from my carbonized GSII

Haven't touched CM10.1 nightly ROMs for a while. But the LED Notification stopped working, stayed on an older version of CM10.1 nightly.
Gonna try that when I get home. Also PA made it to this device. Also the Jedi mind trick Roms. So many options. Wow head's spinning.
Leaning towards CM10.1 though.

No signal, can't play video
I was using CM10.0. Updated CM10.1 with corresponding gapp.
-Can't register on cellular network anymore. Can't set AWS frequency in the factory testing mode.
-All of my Video apps start legging, play videos for a little while and quit after about a minute, say video format not supported. Even though the video is mp4 format and it was playing it before quitting.
How should fix it? Flash kernel? Which kernel should I use?

Had some problem with radio but I just had to update to the latest version and everything else looks fine

I tried to resist flashing this ROM but had to give in to temptation. Said to myself no more flashing when I got into boot issues with JMTJB6. Odin flashed stock and left it unrooted! Was happy...but then temptation. Happy I did it, rock solid, butter smooth, doesn't seem to have any lag.

Thanks that did the trick. I was going mad at why the LED notifications stopped working.
Also still on the non-touch recovery, 5.0.26 the one that needs the Darkmod scripts to wipe cache and do full installs.
Also had to turn sensor on/off before it actually worked. Read that from another post from someone that helped me.
Thanks again dude.

I just had two random reboots, it might be related to bluetooth.

Flash video was not smooth for me. Even with latest Adobe update. But no MHL to TV support was the deal killer. Other than that it was fine.

Are you using a custom kernel? And did you wait the 10 minutes after the flash?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app

No custom kernel. Flashed it days ago...reboot occurred today...Yes I did wait the 10 minutes after initial flash.
Is this a known problem? Would a custom kernel like uber kernel be more stable? I really like this ROM so far as is.

Rootbox I haven't been able to get to work at all, after flashing it all I get on reboot is a faint black lite screen. DU I was able to get into but had some issues (can't remember now what they was exactly, that I wasn't able to resolve / live with.

also make sure you've taken the Jellybean OTA

Hey guys, thanks for the replies. I am currently Running Xenon HD and atm content with it. Been using for a few days now and haven't had any issues thus far (except the wifi signal is weak?), it's smooth and quick. Heck I even turned the CPU down on the min. side and it's still crazy fast.
Just a side note here, droidmnk (hope that is right) released Avatar for this device which I really like a lot only I was having issues with it that I wasn't able to clear up, however should he release a new build I will most assuredly try it out and see how it does for me. Just thought I would share that here, if you haven't yet seen / tried it you should give it a look see. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2402411)
