Don't you worry. I'm in the process of forking BeanStalk to update it. My first try will be the new ThemeChooser engine. I'm just trying to get my build computer up and running and I'll be soon compiling/modifying away! I can't give a timeline, but expect something to drop in the next week or so! And always, I flash it on my own personal vs980 first and try it out, before handing it off to you guys [save for the Linaro build].
Please do tell me which features from other ROMs you want!

Yeah I've been trying to pin that down...log files don't have anything unusual to offer. I've noticed that a reboot often doesn't fix that, but a hard shutdown followed by a power-on resolves that. This problem seems to be beyond my knowledge, but that's the challenge of doing this!
That is music to my ears! Cannot wait, as for features I personally like the new theme chooser as you mentioned but I also like two features that I only seem to find in Vanir (shout out to vanir team) and that is left clock alignment and "low profile mode"... I love those two features especially low profile, I love how it dims all notifications and the nav buttons...I don't know it such feature exists but something like a " sleep mode " would be awesome too, like how a PC can be sort of powered off so it saves battery but its still actually powered on.

I saw on Facebook that the dev of Beanstalk has picked up development again, he's in the process of updating to 4.4.3 and aiming for a Weds release to updates to his github.

He's updating the source that ishyesh is building from, he wouldn't be building a rom for the G2 specifically, you'd need to build your own or wait for ishyesh or another dev to do it. So short answer, no.
It was quite nice that the Beanstalk is being updated now. I'll be sure to post updates as they trickle through. As for forking Beanstalk to keep it updated.....well that's a moot point now isn't it 
If I have the time I'll make a custom ROM eventually in the future...but for the time being, rest assured that I'm a flash and update -o-holic like you all are so I'll be sure to post every new build I compile

The newest update is awesome. First aosp ROM that isn't official CM that is stable on my phone. No random reboots or freezing and no massive battery drain. Great job!!

Me either i been looking all morning and nothing has come up. I did hear the 4.4.3 is in the works.
Which Gapps version am I supposed to use with this ROM. I see it is based on 4.4.2, but the link to the Gapps provided on the first page only has Gapps for 4.4.3 and 4.4.4.
Thanks....
Thanks....

I am proud to present to you BeanStalk. This is a build composed off of the CM builds and has a lot of added alot of features on top of it. So you get speed, stability, and ultra customization ability. Many of the additional code additions came from slim ROM and also Derteufels build and have been modified to work with my current setup. A huge thanks to Derteufel and the Slim ROM guys for their work and dedication. Also a big thanks to everyone involved with CM as that is the building stone in this project.

- Make sure you are rooted with a custom recovery
- Download both the BeanStalk build and the latest GAPPs package.
- Boot into recovery
- Perform a FULL factory wipe and wipe /system and dalvik cache as a precaution
- Flash BeanStalk build
- Flash GAPPs package
- Reboot
After installation go to Settings - Performance - Memory Management - Tick " Allow purging of assets " and reboot.Fixed
This is only necessary until I get a memory leak bug figured out.

Thanks to @scott.hart.bti who created beanstalk rom
Thanks to Scott.Hart.Bti, dr87, and JackpotCalvin! This ROM uses the 4.4.2 sources that dr87 graciously compiled [non-computing definition] for us all!
The SurfaceFlinger excessive CPU drain bug is gone, the life on this version is fantastic! Screenshots:
Download ROM here: note some have had issues with the panel getting PHYSICALLY damaged with this ROM. Please read the entire thread before you decide to flash!

Edit: I was trying to take a video of Riley in Call of Duty Ghosts (he's so adorable!) and noticed the video wasn't working. I've posted a build that uses the newest proprietary blobs and it seems to be fixed. If you experience data connection issues, rebooting twice or three times seems to work.3You know, I've been compiling my own ROM for ages and I finally decided to post to XDA. Reason is that I knew others wanted this ROM but the previous version's battery issue was a deal killer. It's quite discouraging to state the OP is reckless in keeping the links alive. I'm glad the community is very understanding of the risks of flashing your phone with custom firmware. And that we continue to give constructive feedback to help improve the quality of our experience.

VS98012B or VS98024A have 39-40 partitions. KDZ or TOT replaces about 20 of these which includes modem.bin. This modem.bin is also known as baseband, radio, or modem. The older G2 has 12B radio (even older G2 has 10B or 11A radios) while the newer G2 has 24A radio. The other partitions between the 2 varieties are also different like their bootstacks. Thus, for you to use 24A based ROMs you'll need both the 24A radio and 24A bootstack. 12B based ROMS will need 12B radio but will work on 24A or 12B bootstack (backward compatibility of 24A). The wrong radio won't allow your phone to have cellular service or correct gyro rotation, but it'll work as a fancy WiFi only tablet stuck on portrait mode. Flashing ROMs replaces basically cache, data, system, dalvik-cache, boot(stack), efs1, efs2 (or backed up by recovery programs like TWRP, CWM, or Philz).
Here is a few partitions ripped from a KDZ file by simon_lefisch: https://app.box.com/s/59vjhsadeh9f3m15ham0 to show you a few important partitions (there are more that we can't easily access but DEVS can)
ef1 and ef2 partions are important in booting your phone.
Laf.bin file affect download mode which is important in KDZ or TOT to restore your phone back to stock to "start over" or for "warranty repair" as it'll hide rooting or all customizations (just like phone came out of Verizon store).3
It compiles if I give it the latest Linaro toolchain, however, I didn't give it a go on my phone. Link is here if you want to try:
