AOKP Coming Soon - G2 General

Doing some digging last night, it appears the AOKP team is building (and has private test builds) of official AOKP for our devices!
I am not apart of the team or know any of the guys, but just putting the puzzles together and getting excited. AOKP is my ultimate favorite rom!
Are you ready?

This comment doesn't have the same oomph without a funny graphic.

I think their rom uses cyanogenmod as the base so it'll probably be 4.3.1.

Incorrect. They've stated they're based on AOSP and sharing features as found useful in their roms

More choices is always a good thing, and more people working on a device is also a good thing as it tends to speed up solutions to problems. While I am not an AOKP user I definitely am glad to see them working on this device.

Wow this is great news! On my Gnex I been running AOKP exclusively. Can't wait!

Well as a previous Gnex user, the stock G2 rom feels really good. I recommend reading the tips and hidden secrets thread. It feels like LG took an AOKP build and used it as reference for the stock rom.
AOKP seems to be based off 4.3.1 now but is also starting to incorporate lots of the cool tricks the G2.

Coming from a long-time AOKP user on my GNex, using it honestly felt like a step backwards from rooted stock with Xposed and other tweaks. The fact that Netflix is not working on our AOSP 4.3 roms was the death blow for me. Not sure if that will be an issue with official AOKP or not but I honestly prefer LG's ROM with tweaks as of right now.

Can someone explain to me why people like AOKP so much? I have admittedly only used it once, but I didn't find it to be that great. It was slightly buggy and I didn't notice any great benefits.

I hope they use the power widget... I don't see any aosp Rom use this for our phones and I HATE the quick tiles

That's because you didn't look through it. AOKP gives you pretty much every known tweak there is on Android. It's what CM used to be. You can create some very beautiful setups using AOKP.
Though I do agree that I am enjoying the Stock Rom after flashing a few mods. I'm not using Xposed but still got my phone to a good stop where I'm very happy with it.

yeah surprisingly the stock rom on this is not bad and you can modify it which made me wonder if they used a custom as a template?

I hate to admit this as well, but I'm going to be flashing back down to a LG based 4.2.2 ROM either tonight or tomorrow and really tear into it and see what madness I can do. Question. Does anybody have an app already compiled that fully decompiles apks (smali, xml, etc?) or know one? I don't have a PC at the moment. Otherwise I'll have to head to the computer lab where I graduated college from and build a simple app myself that let's me choose an app, decompile it into a directory, then the option to recompe once done (and resign if not system app). The signing part isn't even needed as Steven's SignapkTool should still work.
Just wondering. It's possible as Matt does it in his Privacy Blocker app. If it didn't force close when I tried to run it I'd try to just piggy back off of that after locating where he stored the temp decompiled files at. But thst wouldn't touch system apks.
I can't stay on CyanogenMod as phone calls are horrible. I'm lucky to make it 3 minutes before getting disconnected. I won't comment on AOKP as It's not out on VS980 yet. We need updated files from LG.. As in an official 4.3 and 4.4 release. I remember the same problems back on the OG DROID, but I'm excited to see what they bring. And yes, they do merge code from separate sources as I saw a weather mod I made for some friends that I released on another site show up in a later release. I wasn't credited, and somebody else created a thread on it on the other site taking credit. I didn't care as thise who know knew.. They removed it a few releases later.
Edit: And when I left the GNex, the were at 4.2.x and starting over from scratch for 4.3 so shouldat least be iinteresting.
