Sharing Policy

Please do not use anything in this ROM without the express and written permission from an nV developer. We have worked tirelessly to bring you a highly customizable ROM and would hate to see our work being used elsewhere without being granted the proper permission to do so. Violators of this request will be dealt with by the moderation team from the respective website in which the content was provided.​


Q: Does ART work?
A: No. It only works on odexed ROMs. This one is deodexed.


Q: When is the next release coming?
A: There are going to be no announcements of scheduled release dates for this ROM.


Q: I'm thinking of making a snide comment.
A: Don't. If you have an issue with something solve it via PM. Snide comments do not include "dumb questions." I welcome everyone to ask any questions they have, but please try not to post a duplicate question. I may snap if I see it over and over on every page. However, I do not know everything so if I ignore your question, don't take it personal. I just either don't know the answer or am too busy to answer. This is a community and we're all here to learn so help each other out.


Q: My benchmark scores are lower than when I used _________.
A: That's nice, but it doesn't mean much. As long as the speed of the phone is to your satisfaction everything is working as it should. Benchmark scores are used to show off if anything. Now you may be asking, "Why don't benchmark scores mean anything?" Well it's because there are so many factors that can alter a benchmark score that it makes them unreliable as a performance indicator.


Q: What benchmark app do you recommend?
A: If I had to choose, Vellamo Mobile Benchmark


Q: How can I help with this ROM?
A: Rating the thread 5 stars helps a lot. I don't really need testers, but would prefer to have someone in addition to myself try to port some mods over to the ROM. For example, if someone in the thread wanted a launcher with different modifications, I wouldn't really have the time do it it all by myself. People who contribute apps, themes, etc will have their mod listed under "Downloads" and will have their name in the credits.


Q: Help! Something went wrong!
A: Please post your issue in the thread and it will be addressed at the developers' convenience.


Q: How can I stay up to date?
A: You can follow us on Twitter by going HERE and HERE

Looking forward to trying this out. Question;Is the touch drivers still broken on Aroma installs for the M8 (Sprint)? No biggie, but can be a PIA using he volume controls. Thanks for sharing your development!

You still have to use volume buttons to move. I really like that i could remove whatever i don't need in aroma before flashing the rom. Rom looks great.

I'm gonna try this out and I'm wondering if the hk audio works

Check out TheMikMik
Yes it does, if you have hk firmware. You also have a choice of viper for Android audio as well.

ok got it. i notice most roms are this base and not sprint is there a reason?
This is not a "Native" Sprint ROM. It's based on the GSM version of the phone. With optional tweaks to make it Sprint Compatible.

Personally, I won't use international ROM's. Something Sprint-ish always tends to not work. Like Native HotSpot, EPST for PRL etc. (I'm not saying that's true here but historically something is always missing). Much like CM based ROM's.

What ever you do, do not flash international firmware.

If someone does try it I'm curious if EPST PRL, Native Hot Spot (including 4G), and RoamOnly works.

just installed. setting up now. not a fan of the aroma. especially when you cannot see where the selection is on the back and next buttons. lots of screen tearing when arrowing down through the apps to remove. i really dig the tweaks section! would like to see the spark icon disappear!
