  • Nearly done! Migration cleanup is mostly done. There are a small number of issues left that we continue to work on, but all the heavy lifting is done. We still would love to hear feedback over at this thread and also check out the new XDA app! Thanks and we hope you enjoy the new forums, and thanks for your support of XDA <3

Oh snap! I know what in doing when I get off work tonight! Excited to see our first custom Rom with tweaks and on latest firmware as well!!!!

I would assume then (Not sure if it is stated in OP?) since we are all coming from older firmware we need to do a factory reset along with wiping cache and dalvik before flashing?

Once we do this and use your Rom. Can we then go back to the stock Verizon Rom if needed running the older firmware? Not sure how all this firmware works if once we upgrade via this Rom we have it for good or varies?

Verizon is officially supported. This thread will be used for Verizon-specific issues, but the download link is the same for all versions.

Custom ROMs don't update firmware. We do that manually through fastboot. You definitely want to wipe all data (except internal/SD) when flashing this, but you can easily restore a stock backup if needed.

I did that quite a few times while working with Turge to get this booting on Verizon. :)

And the gates have opened. Do we have to flash the aroma zip to install it on the phone first, then install the rom? On my DNA, I think getting aroma on the device initially required me to flash some zip.

If you liked my post, please hit the "thanks" button.

Nope. Just download, verify MD5 (I'm paranoid like that), and flash.

Can you please explain to me how? What kind of backup should I do before flashing? Then after doing all wipes you recommended, how do I restore or what do I restore in TWRP so not all is lost? Thanks

Loving this so far. Noticed two small issues though:

1) The data usage icon in settings is distorted/incorrect
2) There seems to be a small delay for short home button presses

1 is a theme issue, and will be corrected at some point. 2 is there because of the option of double tapping Home to launch an action. You can modify the time is waits for another press in Tweaks.
