[ROM] [5.1.1_r1] [Grouper]Lustrous Lollipop for Nexus 7 (2012)

[skiman10]

Introduction
I'm not really into writing long elaborate OP posts, so here it goes. This is an AOSP compiled, flashable ROM. This ROM is fast and smooth, it is not bloated with useless features. Lustrous ROM has features being added that make it even more useful. I put a lot of work and love into this rom, if you like it show me some support by donating!

This should be in the Nexus 7 original development forum.

I'm pretty sure it should be in Android Development though.

I thought this was the forum for Flo/Razor and the original development forum was was Grouper/Nakasi, although I may be mistaken.

EDIT: My mistake, it looks like they've changed the forums, been a while since I was last here.

Check the third post of the thread below, lots of resources for unlocking your bootloader, rooting and installing custom recoveries. Read read read and come back if you have any questions/need any help. There is also a toolkit by Wugfresh in the development section, which is pretty straight forward if you prefer.

I'm trying this one on my Nexus 7 2012. This is exactly what I was looking for (fast and lightweight).

So far performance is great! Good work!

There is some privacy guard to control app permission in the rom?

How's this project going? Love to update my n7

Ramping up to push out the 5.1.1_r2 update. I'm not really sure what to add, since I imagine my rom to be as close to stock as possible, with only a couple added things. I'm thinking an Advanced Power Menu.

Cool. I'm on a N7 (2012). Will I need to flash a tablet tips zip for the different dpi setting or is this already set up for that? Thanks in advance.

I would appreciate the APM. Also, does this ROM support F2FS or data and cache?

I'm suspending this project since there doesn't seem to be a big interest in it and I have other things to move on and do. There are plenty of other Roms for grouper. If I see a big interest spark for my ROM to return, I'll look into it. Thanks everyone!
