As the title states this is Android L Developer Preview 2 in a flashable Zip!

Read this post in its entirety before you download and flash!

Everything seems to work well with one MAJOR caveat... You MUST format DATA AFTER you install the ROM!
Im not talking about a factory reset, I am talking about a FULL data format!
Failure to FORMAT Data will cause the inability to write to your internal storage which will cause the O/S to not work correctly!!!

Make a back up of everything you need off of Internal storage, this includes TWRP back ups, movies, pics, etc...

Remember, you have been warned! YOU MUST FORMAT DATA which will erase everything on your tablets internal storage!!!







Features
  • Stock
  • Rooted
  • Busbox
  • MD5: 2F9044D3DE3C9DCB6EFE93B0818E5BFF



How to Install
  • Make a back up of anything you want off your internal storage to your PC!
  • Copy to Internal Storage
  • Reboot to Recovery
  • Install
  • FORMAT DATA!
  • Reboot
  • Profit!



Known issues
  • You must format data AFTER you install!
  • YouTube may crash during initial tablet set up. Works fine though

Thank you for the zip file.
Just a quick question : Can I flash this as secondary rom using MultiRom?
I don't want to reinstall things don't work well

I think the animations make it look more polished. I dont know about speed. Antutu scores decent.

I just like having a new look as well.


What I don't like.... Too much info n the lock screen... IM sure that's changeable though... Also don't like the pull down status bar style any more. I liked the old style better or maybe they could make the shade the entire width of the screen.

Overall its really a more polished version than what I was expecting



Those are my thoughts...

You guys forgot about battery life, with L i'm getting about 2+ hours more screen on time compared to 4.4.4. :good:
Seems like they worked on ART and did a really good job.

Speed is great! I like the new animations. I am sorry tot say some apps are not working. F.e. gobackup (i made from out of 4.4.4 a backup which i cannot put back)

When i open gobackup, it asks for root permission, i say yes and the system hangs and reboots itself.
Also buienalarm (Dutch app for wheater) is nog working.

Is there a way to get the battery show the %?

Boottime is a little long. Speed in browsing is absolutely great! Thx for this ROM!
