Introduction: - Read it carefully ...
So guys i compiled the native Lollipop which Google pushed yesterday ^^
It does not contain any gapps, bootanimation or bloatware, so do not expect too much :D
This build needs to be flashed via Fastboot! (Tutorial below)
The Rom is designed for interested users which want to know whats coming to their smartphones
and maybe some custom rom creators aswell :)
Feel free to customize it however you want.
Aswell you need to flash this directly onto the Android L Developer Preview.

Please do not spam rom creators and inform them about the image i posted here - it annoys them

Little fastboot tutorial:
- open command window
- type "fastboot flash system system.img"
- type "fastboot flash userdata userdata.img"
- type "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
- type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
- type "fastboot flash cache cache.img"
- type "fastboot reboot" and enjoy the little over-look experience :)

For custom rom creators i recommend Ext4 Unpacker for windows. It's free, btw, rom is deodexed.

so is it a fully functional ROM
i mean would it be identical to Google's Factory image that will be released or what?
No, its missing all of google's apps and play store. It just includes a few basic apps like browser/sms/phone/gallery/email/calender/camera and so forth.

Nothing much different appearance wise. Device flys since it's very lightweight with no google services. Getting playstore from apk mirror to install a few things.

Edit: Won't let me open the file after it downloaded.
Play Store app needs Google Play Services to work placed in the system.

Could you try using the Root method on the last Developer Preview and see if its working?

You probably need Play Services for it to work.
