Introduction:
Welcome to PhotonAOSP! Photon AOSP is a lightweight, performance/feature packed AOSP based ROM for the Nexus family of devices. The goal of this ROM and Project PhotonAOSP as a whole is to take AOSP and modify it with useful and important features that everyone loves and uses daily. Note that this ROM will never have as many features as BlissPOP, PureNexus, Pac-man ROM, etc. but will only contain necessary features such as ones found in Omnirom, Chroma, etc. PhotonAOSP delivers (and will always continue to do so) the latest AOSP source code with Google's latest security patches.
Instructions for Installation:
Changelog: LINK
Download: ROM-20151211 |GAPPS

NOTE: Every donation motivated me and helps me to continue this project. If you like my work a donation is always appreciated
Update Schedule:
ROM updates will be bi-weekly (twice a week). Unless told otherwise all ROM updates can be dirty flashed. Check Github for all of the latest fixes and feature additions.
