Cool, finally a custom lollipop rom for our device..and it's not for the wifi variant, darn xD..But, I have to ask, I know this is PURE AOSP, but, what would be the advantages of using this ROM vs stock rooted lollipop w/ nvidia's binaries?

If I have time, I'll give this a shot tomorrow!

I don't want to be a jerk or nothing, but maybe I misread something. Is this not an entire ROM? The file is only 155 mb

ASOP roms are only this size. You need to add GAPPS later.

I know they're smaller, I use CM12 on my phone, it's 256mb without Gapps. No worries, I'm doing it now ?

The smallest ROM I ever saw! Running like a champ! More updates later. This is nice so far.

I wouldn't unless the OP specifically states it will work.

This is running well. Only issue I see is lack of a camera. Drivers missing I suppose. Very stable, daily driver for sure! Thanks !

WiFi doesn't connect automatically, you have to go into settings and click connect.

Installed and running good so far. Like pjim, I also noticed that the camera's are inop. Another thing I noticed is that I'm unable to mount my 64GB NTFS formated uSDCard. I checked the fstab files and the /storage/sdcard1 entries have vfat as the partition type. I tried editing them manually and rebooting, but I'm not having any luck so far.

the fstab is on the initramfs, it will always get reset on reboot. if you want your changes to persist, you need to unpack the boot.img, make the changes, repack and flash

That explains everything. lemme see if I can figure this out. Thanks for the tip

I also own the 32GB version but I live in Europe (Germany). I don't use LTE at all so will it run on my tablet?

The advantage is that it's clean, there are no proprietary apps or services.

This ROM is built against the LTE US (wx_na_do) board, not wx_na_wf. That means wx_na_wf is not supported.

Working on it.

WiFi doesn't connect automatically, you have to go into settings and click connect.

Got it, thanks for the feedback.

Stock AOSP does not support NTFS.
