"Let's build a ROM"

Disclaimer: Nothing that happens to your device is my fault. All modifications done are
your choice and there for not my fault. Thanks.
FYI: This is a "Work in progress" features and other stuff will be added as time goes on.


Hey everyone,

This ROM is a community based effort. All features will be added per user suggestion and OP review of said request or it will be a feature that the "team" added themselve(s). I am new to the custom ROM development scene so this will be a learn as I go thing. However I will never put out an official release that is unstable. I do have kernel development experience so this will be a generally fast and well built combo (ROM and kernel). Everything is individually cherry picked and gone over or personally developed in house by me and tested.

Not working it comes back as an error 7

Not working it comes back as an error 7

Shouldn't be, I just installed the same zip a couple hours ago and it works perfect. Make sure your using the most recent twrp. If not try out multirom. (Just the multirom recovery)

Just wanted to give you a heads up, I received an error 7 as well with the new TWRP 3.0.0-1

Getting a zip file corrupt message in TWRP with the new build. Double-checked the MD5s and mine matches what is on Basketbuild...

I'm still able to install it in my recovery. I'm using multirom based on 3.0.0-1 twrp.

I can install your first build but the latest one I could't even extract, as it is telling me there is no signitue or "zip is not signed". I downloaded it several times. I can't wait to give it another go. And thank you for sharing.

Reuploading. Must have gotten corrupted.

 

[CurbThePain]

Should be fine now. Sorry my internet is really terrible.

Don't expect much but speed as of now. Mainly just slimmed down and optimized well. Other than that its pretty stock.

If you want something added just throw in a request in the feature requests tab!

A quick question though, I know that you have optimized the kernel but does it force encryption? I'm guessing yes if it is stock CM, but wanted to make sure. Thank you once again.

I don't know honestly. I think it would. Just flash a kernel that doesn't then decrypt the device and re flash the stock one that came with the rom.

That's what I did at least.

What are future plans for this ROM? Is BT usable? thinking of buying a n6 just for this ROM.

Why would you buy a Nexus 6 just for this ROM? It is outdated by 4 months and is just regular CM. You can use the newer CM that they themselves release, or you can choose one of the multiple ROMS that are based on it that are updated and have many more features.

As long as cm is relatively stable. Any cm based ROM is what I'm looking for.
