It's really extended the battery-life and gave it back its new tablet feel. Happy to have an old friend back!
That's great, I actually considered (and tried) a Lineage OS 15.1 ROM when I was doing this. Unfortunately I kept getting the dreaded "Status 7" error which I could not find any resolution for. That was part of the trials and tribulations I mentioned, fighting with that error. But the AICP ROM has been great.

ETA: The above reminds me, if there are any Android hardcores around here who know the short list of possible causes for a "status 7" error when installing a custom ROM, I would sure like to know what it is. I would really, really like to NOT run into that error again in the future. I did try a few of the hacks I found online, for example, commenting out an 'assert' line of code contained in one of the files in the ROM, but none of that helped.
