PREAMBLE
I'm not responsible for anything, neither for soft or hardbricked devices, nor for anything else.
Please, do not post feature requests or bug reports here, use DevDB instead, thanks. This ROM is not a ZIP-port, it has been compiled from source.
Screenshots can be found in the "screenshots" tab of DevDB. There's no need to post more.



WORKING/NOT WORKING
Same as in other KK (CAF) ROMs


FEATURES
This ROM is very lightweight and also has very nice additions (see my screenshots).
Please visit the SlimROMs homepage for more information, the special "SlimGAPPs" and much more. :)


DOWNLOAD
You can always get the latest build from here.

Thank you for porting a Slimkat ROM to Xperia L.
I am surely trying this and will soon report all problems etc.

And a big hearty thanks man :)

And one suggestion , Sony has released an open source archive of 15.3.A.1.16 use that kernel source , and that will solve many bugs in the device tree :D

15.3.A.1.16 archive is same as that of 15.3.A.1.12 and it won't fix any bugs in device tree. -_-

arre!!! he's using 0.26 sources , by 1.14 many glitches and bugs were removed (remember that transfer to sdcard bug!!) and many more
so I suggested that. :)

No worries, the kernel will be changed in the next update. But as stated in the OP - you can use the ThunderZap kernel for now.

Thanks for the Rom. I`ve installed it with Thunderzap kernel, and it pretty nice. But I can`t get root... Although in settings I checked Root for ADB and apps, it still doesn`t rooted :(
