Using the Aroma Installer

This is a quick guide to using the Aroma Installer since this highly customized version may be slightly different from what you have used before.

Looks complicated, but is super easy. And I think you will appreciate the ability to customize your set-up without having to re-install the ROM.

Enjoy!

Be sure to select your carrier!

Installation:
Nandroid backup
Factory reset in recovery if coming from a non-TouchWiz ROM (backup internal SD Card contents first)
Flash in recovery (button or touch)
Aroma installer should start within ~5 seconds

Choose a theme (if the colors look borked, go back and choose the theme again).

After agreeing to the disclaimer and viewing the changelog, Choose either:

Install or Update ROM - Installs ROM
or
Add or Remove Features - Allows you to add or remove apps, launchers, etc without re-installing the ROM.
________________

Install or Update ROM:
Choose either:
Full Wipe - Clean install wipes system, cache, Dalvik, and app & system data (no media, etc).
or
Update Wipe - Wipes system, cache, Dalvik (for current CSROM users only)

Choose desired options.
If you don't choose a launcher, the TW launcher will be installed.
If you install both AOSP and Samsung email you will get repeated FC's.
You can install both launchers and decide which one to use after boot.

________________

Add or Remove Features:
Be sure to select everything you want included in the ROM, even if it is already installed on your device.
If any given item is not selected, it will either not be installed, or deleted if it is already installed.

________________

Additional Info
If at any point Aroma hangs, hold the power button until device reboots recovery (10-15 seconds).

If install completes and you get a "Status 0" error after pressing "Reboot" in Aroma, just reboot the device.


***************

Using the ROM

Currently Not Working
Some widgets don't work with some launchers
AOSP Lockscreen - camera and Google Now icons don't unlock screen
AOSP texting breaks MMS conversations in to separate messages
Clock and AM/PM toggles are not yet functional
Quick Reboot not working
Note2 gallery FCs when trying to set pics on lockscreen
23 Toggle Mod: Some toggles don't work properly (talk to lidroid or wanam)


RAZR Launcher and Circle Widget
Tapping the circles launches clock app, weather app, and battery stats
Swipe circles to flip them
Clock circle displays text notifications
Home screen is left most screen (not center)
Slide home screen right to see quick settings
Circle widget currently only works with RAZR launcher
Lockscreen wallpaper can not be changed with this launcher

AOSP Lockscreen:
When using the AOSP lockscreen you must de-select all other lockscreen options.

Multi-Window:
Press and hold the back button until menu bar pops up
Tons of videos on YouTube

Battery options are located in Settings, Display, Battery Icon Style.

Using the lockscreen torch:
The lockscreen torch will allow you to quickly turn on your flashlight from the lockscreen.
Simply push the home button in for torch, it will go off when you unlock, hit the power button, or it times out.

Should work great for you guys. ;)

No problems so far (other than those listed in the OP) for _MrAwesome_ on his T-999V. Hopefully he stops by and gives some feedback.

No multi window unless I'm missing something. Also, version says 4.1.1.

Alright, I've given this a little test. Runs smoothly, love the ability to just flash mods in Aroma and not need to do a full install each time. Multiwindow working but I've never seen the point of it personally. I really like the way data drops to 3g when not being actively used, that'll help save some battery. I'll give this a test for a few days and see what kind of damage I can do to it.

Couple immediate gripes that perhaps are already being fixed or can be justified:
1. When a notification comes in it scrolls over top of the clock and can be hard to read, unlike other TW ROMs where the entire area clears so the text is the only thing visible (I'm using centered blue clock)
2. The notification bar icons and text seem overall too large for some reason, also I would be nice to edit the visible ones since some people don't use them all.
3. When highlighting text or autocorrecting a word as you type the field is green. I suppose this is minor and can be overlooked but my theme is blue and it jumps out every time.

Awesome work, keep it up and thank you!

If you read the OP it says to hold the back button to activate multiwindow. It's working without a problem for me.

My version says 4.1.2 so I'm going to guess that overall you didn't flash the correct ROM.

Ah, didn't see the part about holding the back button. Thanks.. That worked. I flashed the correct ROM, twice. Full wipe and all. I'm using the T-Mobile version so maybe that why it shows 4.1.1.

I'm using T-Mobile also, downloaded from this thread. I just noticed and doubled checked because of my signature that I'm listed as the i747 which is interesting. It does show 4.1.2 for sure in the about device for me. I also don't remember selecting my carrier now that I think about it, did you?

I'm gonna do another fresh install and see what's up. Hmmm

Yeah I selected T-Mobile. :thumbup:

Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Ah ha! I found the problem. What happens is when you select T-Mobile while installing all the goodies. Apparently my finger wasn't read the first time o did it and missed some of them, one of which is the carrier selection at the very bottom. Now that I've picked that it shows the proper device but the wrong version. Its probably just a typo in the script that I hope is fixed next release.
