CounterShrike 2.3a

Version 2.2 introduces Aroma Installer.  I am really excited about this.  Aroma allows each user to have a customized experience.  The initial release will have a limited number of options, but the list of options should grow with every release.  For this version, I'm proud to introduce an S-ON kernel installer through Aroma installer.  Now even S-ON users can flash the rom and kernel completely from your phone, no computer necessary!  The installer also offers different launcher options, a choice of SuperUser or SuperSU, and currently, four selectable tweaks.  Aroma is an incredibly powerful tool that will allow me to give you an amazing level of customization as the ROM matures.

S-ON users: Please see the FAQ in post 2 for more information on flashing when S-ON.

This project has one goal...to put out the most stable, feature filled CM9 build on the Rezound.  I'm always on the lookout for new stuff to add.  If anyone has anything they want to see, I'll look into it and see what I can do.

I have created a new Aroma-enabled Google Apps installer that will allow you to select between standard Google Search and Google Now, as well as allowing the optional installation of several popular Google apps that are not included with the standard Google Apps package. Note to devs: Feel free to distribute this with your roms as long as you don't modify it, send me a PM that you're using it, and give me credit for it.  It should work with any ARMv7 device.

FAQ
Q: How do I install this ROM if I am S-ON?
A: Install the ROM from recovery as you normally would.  During installation, select S-ON when prompted by Aroma.  The installer will create a PH98IMG.zip file on your /sdcard.  When installation is complete, reboot to your bootloader, either from Amon-Ra's Developer menu or TWRP's Reboot menu, and then select BOOTLOADER from the fastboot menu. The bootloader will prompt you to press VolUp to install the PH98IMG. Do so, and the kernel image will install.  Be sure to delete the PH98IMG.zip file from your SD card when you're done so you'll be able to get back into your bootloader easily if necessary.

Q: What's the difference between SuperUser and SuperSU?
A: Functionally, both provide control over root access given to applications and services. SuperUser is the default app in CM9, and has been the long time standard on Android.  The basic version simply provides per app allow/deny options, logging, and a few global options.  A donate version is available that provides more granular per app logging and notification options.  SuperSU is a recent entry that fixes some problems that the developer perceieved in SuperUser and seeks to provide more advanced features.  The basic version provides all of the features of the basic version of SuperUser and more, including temporary unroot, per app notification configuration, wake on prompt, and more.  The choice between the two is completely user preference.  SuperUser has the edge in longevity and familiarity, SuperSU has the edge in advanced features.  For most users, one will work as well as the other, but if you are having trouble getting root to stick on one, try out the other.

Q: Why does my screen go black when I'm on a phone call?
A: Your proximity sensor is being incorrectly triggered.  Most of the time, this is calibration problem rather than a sensor problem.  To fix, download Chad0989's Rezound Proximity Sensor Calibrator app.  You will see a "NEAR" reading on the screen.  Slowly increase the High Threshold until you see a "FAR" reading.  Increase the High Threshold by 3-5 more than it takes to trigger a "FAR" reading.  Test the new settings by covering and uncovering the Verizon logo on the front of the phone.  The reading should switch between NEAR and FAR.  Check "Set on boot" and close the app.  If this fix does not work for you, your proximity sensor is bad, and you will need to contact Verizon for a replacement phone.

Github info
The main manifest of this ROM is at https://github.com/s...8/CounterShrike.  While anyone is free to view the code and compile it on their own, no one else is given permission to release the ROM as is without written permission.  The purpose of the public git is for open collaboration, so I encourage everyone with anything to contribute to go check it out.  This github contains the main rom code only.  Boot animation, tweaks, and Aroma configurations and scripts are only available in the official release.
