AOKP team posts giant update to its Jelly Bean build, allows rotation and tablet UI anywhere

Custom ROM fans will know [AOKP](http://www.engadget.com/tag/AOKP/) (Android Open Kang Project), but the first build derived from [Jelly Bean](http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/26/refresh-roundup-week-of-august-20th-2012/) was knowingly rough around the edges. What a difference a month makes: along with the usual round of bug fixes, the team's second build has added options to force screen rotation and the tablet interface on any device. Not-quite-so-early adopters also get fine-grained control over the interface DPI, LEDs, theming and vibration, and the device list has grown to include the Verizon [Galaxy S III](http://www.engadget.com/2012/07/09/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-review-verizon-wireless/), the [Galaxy Note](http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/28/samsung-galaxy-note-review/) and multiple variants of both the original [Galaxy S](http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/28/samsung-galaxy-note-review/) and the [Galaxy Tab](http://www.engadget.com/tag/GalaxyTab/) family. If you were waiting to stay just short of the bleeding edge before trying AOKP, your version is ready.
