it means, your device doesn't allow bootloader unlock, so you can't install this ROM.

I tried NFS most wanted. A little old perhaps, but the graphics are improved compared to marshmallow, full of reflections, and it runs with no glitches...

Thanks a lot for this ROM @CaHbKaUp
This ROM is super smooth.. No lags.. Nougat on tablet is so awesome

After a clean installation of the last rom (nougat) I've noticed two problems. The first is the camera. It crashes randomly and I had to reboot the tablet, in order to bring it back to life. The second was the file manager that came with the rom. It does not show the files either on the internal or the external storage. I had to download and install fx from google to be able to see the files. After that I rolled back to rooted stock 5.1.1

Sorry, I cant reproduce it on build of 2016-11-08 even with full wipe.
Try my last update if you appreciate it.

@CaHbKaUp
First I want to thank you for your work. Sadly I did not have the time to test it yet.
Secondly it took me about a minute to find the new build in the second post. :silly: It would be nicer if you edited the first post.
And thirdly: Will this be always "unofficial" (read: private maintained) or will it become "official" (read: automatically build)?

Thank you for this notice - updated.

Im not a regular CM dev and not in CM team. Night builds of CM14 already started and I hope our device will be in there builds, but dont know when.

I will definitely try it. Two additional problems with the November 8 rom that I did not mention in my previous message are: No FM radio and no IR blaster. Otherwise it is the best rom I have tested and I congratulate you for your work. I do not know if there is a way to fix these two things, but thank you anyway.....
