FULL WIPE (without external microsd card with NO Home PC access)
NOTICE: First boot after an install/update takes a while, wait at least 5 minutes for it to boot.
If the LED stops flashing and goes solid with any color then SuperSU did not correctly trigger the reboot.. You can either pull the battery -OR- hold down the power button for 15 seconds till the led/screen goes blank, then let go of the power button.. Then after another 4 seconds it will automatically boot and vibrate and everything is 100% normal.. It only happens that one time on a new Rom install with SuperSU.

AROMA-BOOTANIMATION -- By Creeper36
(Does Not Contain the Rom)
This is an Aroma installer if you want to change your BootAnimations.
This is a completely seperate and optional Aroma from the Rom installer.
I created this to give you the option of easily changing your BootAnimations.
Take a look at the Previews below and I will be creating more of these and will continue to update it.

(Note: Quality may be reduced for Preview GIFs.. Final version is flawless)
