[ROM][5.1][Flounder] Pure AOSP 3/18/15 [LMY47D]

[gchild320]

Hello! I'll be posting pure AOSP builds whenever there are new versions of android released (providing I have the time).

If you choose to use these builds, please ensure you have unlocked your bootloader and have custom recovery installed. I have also noticed that TWRP seems a little wonky at this point, so in order for me to flash it correctly, I had to wipe, then restart recovery, then flash. Hope that's not the case for everyone else.

3/18/15
Added ability to change DPI.

No longer messes with recovery at all. Bluetooth working, data does not force encrypt.

3/13/15
Android 5.1.0_r1 (LMY47D)
This release will wipe your recovery. If anyone needs this changed let me know and I will build another.

1/3/2015
Android 5.0.2_r1 (LRX22G)
Data is now encryptable, meaning your unencrypted data should stick going forward.
Included my own build of stock kernel with Linaro 4.9.3 toolchain.
Fixed bluetooth (thanks Lollipopalooza/Craig)
No longer need to re-flash recovery.

12/6/2014
Android 5.0.1_r1 (LRX22C)
You will need to install separate gapps
You will need to re-flash your custom recovery after you install (you all let me know if I should change this or not, I think I will on future builds)

I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device or to you, yourself while flashing this.
Latest DL Links will be in post #2.

Just a few questions. What gapps do you recommend? What twrp ? There is the mainline version and the one @USBhost did. Thanks for the ROM!! Really appreciate seeing this show up.

I didn't realize that there were two versions of twrp...I used the one from twrp website.

Hello,
can anyone provide a minimal gapps pack? I would like to avoid too much bloatware

This maybe what you are looking for.

Well i don't think it's 64bit version or is it ?

From what I understand the apps themselves need to be optimized for 64 internally. These are all Google apps so they are if Google did so. As you update from the play store you don't choose if you're running 64bit or not.
As always I can be wrong.

This is actually a great question.

Adaptive brightness doesn't work. Other than that everything seems to be working.

Edit: Okay so I used an app to look at which sensors were working and which ones weren't... The proximity sensor is not working at all.

Adaptive brightness is working flawlessly. Maybe you had a bad download or flash.

I use USBhost's version of TWRP. I tried to flash the rom following directions in OP. It wouldn't flash. First it said for flounder and this device is flounder. Also said something about updater binary. I got this with the other rom also. I tried un-mounting and mounting system, but I still got the error messages. Any ideas?

I manually changed it to work with official twrp... Not sure why twrp is calling it volantis instead of flounder but that's why. Also, to get anything to flash in twrp at the moment, I have to reboot recovery after wiping. Hope this helps.
