I take no resposibility if something will go... not as it supposed to. The responsibility for potential damages caused by installing or using of this ROM is Yours, and Yours only!
My ROM is released „as is” – you don’t like it – don’t use it.

What is Final Fantasies Project?
Time passes, many of You use very good and stable 4.4.2 ROMs, but…
That ROMs are stable, but don’t like my Ace II (mostly by not letting me fast use GPS). I don’t use GPS very often, but… that fact itself
is driving me crazy).
The last Android version, which lets me use GPS without stress is 4.2.x…
But most of 4.2.x ROMs for our Codina’s have status final/abandoned/unsupported now…
So I had to do the updates by myself.
Why? – You ask… Because I can

Vanilla Root-Box is great ROM, I updated it some time ago using newest Device sources (Rox addend it to OP of his thread). Only inconvenience for me is lack of Quick Peek feature…
Now I think – the OMX patches I used aren’t the newest one, so I made one more build (not tested thoroughly though). Bonus – I added Abyssplug governor…
Next one – Chameleon OS, „my” ChaOS). I compiled two builds some time ago, but it has some “unneeded” bugs, like low in-call volume. Current build should be pretty bugs free, but the ROM is little laggy itself… Great feature of ChaOS – partial compatibility with MIUI themes…
The last (for now?) ROM is my nightmare – Slim Bean. I lost many hours trying to compile it long time ago, without success (downloading sources couple of times. The ones, who try to compile ROM from sources know how big it could be).
Finaly - I managed to compile working Slim Bean 4.2.2… with some issues (YT app freezing, etc.). So I compiled one more build – and added some features (somebody may remember my minimal by judas77 v.1.6) using aroma installer. You can swap memory, turn off backlights, change font, add adblocking script, some apps and Radio FM during installation of ROM…
Common part
Important!
Any Galaxy Ace II ROM based on Android 4.2.x+ has to be installed over Android 4.1.x+ (stock ROM, CM-like customs). You will need custom recovery (temporary one is good enough)
It is strongly recommended to make a backup before installing of ANY ROM!
