UltimaROM-Shamu​
Information
Welcome to UltimaROM. Some of you may know me from the S3 and S4, some of you may not. This is the first time I've managed to get UltimaROM on an actual Nexus device, despite spending a long time on TouchWiz devices, making them more AOSP-like.
I got this device a couple of days ago, so bare with me while I acclimatise!
Features
OTA Updates (handled by RomHut)
Forced encryption disabled (requires data wipe once)
Stock kernel (for now, you may choose another)
Xposed
Xposed is not supported. You may install it. It may work. But I will not support any Xposed related questions or requests. I will never bundle it with the ROM.
Download
Android Lollipop 5.1.1
Download UltimaROM-Shamu 20150630 here

Github: here
Note:
SuperSU is not included by default. I toyed with this idea, and figured it best to leave that up to you to root if you so wish. Many of the intended features of this ROM will work ok without root.
Installation instructions
TWRP 2.8.7.1 or greater is preferred. CWM should be considered "abandoned" these days
Copy the ROM files to your device (I prefer to keep a folder especially for anything ROM related)
Choose "install" in TWRP
Locate this ROM
(Optional) Queue up some other files like SuperSU

:highfive:
It's literally just a stock ROM right now, as you can see from the changelog. But you have the OTA app if you install and will get OTA's as and when I update with newer features I will deodex, debloat and start adding some proper features soon, I was just excited to post an UltimaROM thread again!
I'm in!
Loved your stuff for my old S4. Awesome to see you in a N6 now!
Think I'm going to give this a go. One question in future of the development are you going to be a adding a theme engine. If so will it be CM or Layers. I only ask as I almost always use layers. Many thanks

Looking forward to this! The only rom I used on the S3!

Yep, but I really need to get the LYZ28E build deodexed to be able to do anything meaningful with the ROM. Hoping the guys that did the three Deodex'd build will be willing to share their method.
All flashed and so far so good. Did u see my post about the theme engine.

I didn't, but I have now. Erm, AFAIK, there is no way to use CM Theme Engine on these ROMs. I'd like to get Layers working as I intend on theming some apps myself.

If you add layers to it then I will 100% stick with you for it. The guy who brought layers to android is on G+ and from all accounts a really good guy. I'll link you to his community so you can have a look.

Matt, too the best of my knowledge, it would be an almost insurmountable challenge to get stock 5.1.1 in a position to support layers...it's either hard coded themed stock apps or an AOSP based rom if you want a theme platform.
With the advent of M, all of this changes, as RRO appears to be inclusive, so Layers and other platforms that take advantage RRO will work natively.
Ask @daveyannihilation, as I'm certain that he'd love to drone on endlessly about what an incredible guy he is.

Welcome to my SwiftROM project. This is my first ROM ever posted here on XDA. I would like to start off by saying I am still new to all this and I am still learning. This ROM is based on AOSP 5.1.0_r3 and is pretty much stock. I have removed several AOSP apps that I don't use and don't see the need for. In the future I will be trying to add some cool features but as I said I am still learning and it's going to take some time. So with all that out of the way, let's get to it.
AOSP apps removed=
Browser
Calendar
Email
Exchange
Music
MusicFX
Gallery
Voice Dialer
Features so far=
Quick Settings Quick Pulldown
Dialer Icon updated to Material
Added in CM gallery
Added .25 and .75 Animations
Smoother Upload and Download Animations
ROM is built with Linaro 4.8 Toolchain
Kernel is Pre-Built AOSP kernel
Flashing Instructions=
Use TWRP
Factory Reset
Wipe System
Flash ROM
Flash Gapps
Flash SuperSU for root
ROM
GAPPS
SuperSU
I would like to give special thanks to the following for helping me out and answering all my questions.

As you all may know, Android development is not easy. With that said, anyone can learn how to do this stuff. It takes a lot of time and trial and error but it pays off in the end. Having started learning all this I now have 100 times more respect for the real developers that have doing such a wonderful job bringing all this stuff to our mobile devices. They put in hours of work to make all this happen. Please always give the utmost respect to any Mod, Dev or other users here on XDA or any site committed to Android. I want to encourage everyone to not just be a user but try to learn some cool new stuff in the process.

So after years of flashing ROMs and kernels and owning so many android devices, some may call me crazy, I've finally decided to make a ROM for myself and share it with the public on XDA!
This ROM is all about simplicity, lightweight, being equipped with the right software, no crashes, speed, a nice minimal default theme, yadda yadda yadda.
I'll be posting nightly releases until I get everything just right, in the meantime hopefully by sharing these builds, I can get some feedback from you guys.
What works? Everything. What doesn't work? Nada.
Screenshots available in the screenshots section (link above post)
Latest Release: 1.0.2 - DOWNLOAD LINK
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=30025
Make sure to flash SuperSU afterwards if you would like root.
Comes with ZenKernelv17 boot.img built-in, and I *highly", recommend you leave it at that.
Check the ZenKernel thread for updates:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/orig-development/3-10-zen1-dollar-drink-night-bfs-msm-t3062814
The default settings are all good. Double-tap to wake is enabled by default.
I promise, next release I'll also put up a thank-you list to a few developers out there! Enjoy

Thanks for your energy and contribution to the N6 community.

Looks epic, but what is "zen kernel"?
Check out the thread in the OP I linked it. Its kinda like replacing a v6 mustang engine with a v8 that uses up half the gas for some odd reason o.0
nice build. very clean, snappy and stable. Look forward to future updates. Thanks for the ROM

How did you get into making the ROM did you follow a guide or? How hard is it I'd like to have a go my self
Well it depends if you want to build an AOSP ROM from source or just base it off stock like I did. This project originally started with AOSP but then I converted most of my changes into stock.
i love double tap to wake. did you add anything for screen off. i am liking long-press back.:good:

okay so, how would i go about just basing it off stock?
Well first thing you'll want to do is set up this tool called "apktool" I don't know if there are easier ways nowadays but that's what I use. Its a Java app so it'll work on any OS you're running.. What OS do you have running on your computer?
Actually long press back was supposed to be released on my next nightly.. Did I upload the wrong build? Lol I have builds scattered all around my desktop and documents folder, I usually look for the newest one by sorting by date modified lol really confusing.
Thing is, because this project started off AOSP, I used some files and apps from AOSP and mixed it in with stock ROM after stripping it down, that's how ingot the web browser and stuff, but other than that, its mostly using apktool to edit files ..
And knowing what files do in a ROM, knowing what they're used for, knowing what you can remove or add, I think building a ROM from source will teach you a lot, there's a good guide I used for that by Stephen, you can search for the thread

Well I'm probably running the worst os for this sort of thing, I'm on mac
Anyone know how to disable double tap to wake as i have no need for it. Tried different kernel managers but settings don't stick. I looked in his kernel thread but didn't find anything. Any help in permanently turning this kernel feature off appreciated.

Welcome to Slim on the OnePlus 2
Whilst there are few ROMs available for the OnePlus 2, this originally "private build" is being released as a test build and to give you another choice. We know that things aren't perfect for any OnePlus 2 custom ROM.
Like most OnePlus 2 ROMs it is based off @Grarak's kernel and we would like to express our thanks for his hard work.
As such, this has the same issues of other ROMs eg fingerprint, permissive selinux.
Also, at this stage if there are any other slim related builds please feel free to post.
Please try it, enjoy it and let us know if there are issues BUT:
- Do not pester Martin - leave him be to get on doing what he is doing. I'm merely maintaining the thread, Martin does the hard work Martin wanted this to be fully functional before release, I persuaded him to let you have it - don't make us regret this!
- Logs or it didn't happen. We don't want pointless posts repeating the same things or not really telling us what the issue is.
- Keep it friendly and respectful (or you will be reported) but a little off topic is allowed.
Download
Source: github.com/slim-opt
What does not work?
- Fingerprint
- Laser Autofocus
- Enforcing selinux

Yups, clean wipe (system+data+caches) for the 1st time. Subsequent versions can be dirty flashed, unless otherwise mentioned.
Any lollipop gapps(slim, TK, opengapps, banks, etc) should be fine. :good:

Only 64 bit GApps will work. TK is for 32 bit only.

Like said in OP already, the kernel is CM based, so AK's CM Kernel should be the right choice.
Edit: I no longer own this phone. Information in the OP may be outdated and/or incorrect. Please go to the new thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/development/rom-cyanogenmod-13-nightlies-snapshots-t3363769
DISCLAIMER: I AM IN NO WAY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY PROBLEMS ON YOUR DEVICES CAUSED BY FLASHING THESE BUILDS. THE UPSTREAM CODE AND BUILDING IS MAINTAINED BY THE CYANOGENMOD TEAM, NOT ME. I AM NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THEIR TEAM, I AM JUST THE THREAD OWNER.
It was a fun round of unofficial nightlies but the official upstream CM13 builder for shamu is active! Please use the new download links below to grab the official nightlies. Dirty flash seems to work fine if you go from my unofficial 11-29 build to the official 11-30 one. As mentioned in the first post, I will be ceasing my personal builds for now and leave it to the CM team.
Notes: CyanogenMod's stock kernel forces encryption of storage. Please download one of the third party kernels if you wish to avoid this. Also this thread assumes you have kept up to date with bootloaders and radio. At the time of writing, the latest is from the MRA58K release and can be downloaded here.

Correct, but not nightly and as far as I can tell albinoman887 is also making fixes which implies altering of upstream code. My thread intends to serve as a purely upstream source build.

I would like to say thank you, and I believe that this ROM deserves its own thread respectfully. Since there isn't much action from that other Alpha build and if you are truly building on a nightly basis then this is much appreciated and I look forward to testing.
Thanks!

Thanks for the support and glad to build it. Just to make sure credit is given where due, any bug fixes will be made only by the CyanogenMod team and/or any git contributors. Not sure if you'll get much support from me either but I'll certainly be glad to give any tips I find. For example, if this one specific bug rears its ugly head again, you may need to rename the SetupWizard apk inside /system/app-priv/ as that has been constantly force closing for me prior to today's build.

No features added whatsoever If they add it upstream (included in CM) it'll be here, otherwise no. Absolutely stock. Consider me a third party buildbot slave
Very nice ROM. Just to let everyone know I just finished flashing with the Open GApps Pico and it's working fine. I know, it's bad form to use something that's not recommended.
One quick question, do we get any notification that the new nightly is ready to flash or do we just check the download site?

For now just the download site. I may setup something similar to the pushbullet feed Chroma has if people are interested but haven't spent the time to do it yet. New 11-23 build is up now though
Edit: Woot, looks like they fixed the system rw mounting. Hm but my test file disappeared on reboot.. maybe not yet

These donations are not for me but for @elginsk8r
I do not maintain these roms so ask him if you need help!
I am currently working on a Cyanogenmod 14 for this device and it will be done by almost the end of the year or longer. Depends so hitting the Thanks button will encourage me to finish the Cyanogenmod rom faster and more accurately with dedication.

Did you ask permission to post this?
There could be reasons why devs don't post their work for general public release in device forums.
Also if we are going to credit the rom then the original author @deadman96385 should be recognized.

@deadman96385 didn't make this rom, he made a rom for SM-T550. @elginsk8r made SM-T350. Also, the rom was posted before there was a Samsung Galaxy Tab A Series forum.

I think you'll find the original sources are from @deadman96385 repo.
Irrespective of that it's still prudent to ask the current developer for permission.

No, the original author is me, deadman and i ported both devices at the same time using evervolv sources.
But this kid did not ask for permission, so could the mod close this thread?

Sorry for posting this thread without permission. But anyways I am not a "kid". That is very rude if you think of it in my perspective.

I wouldn't take it personally. It's just a term to describe someone, I don't think elginsk8r actually meant you were a kid. [emoji6]

Ok. Thanks for the clarification.
Would have been awesome...

Well I went ahead and tried this build anyways and it boots fine. Video and audio is working. It's a bit sluggish at times but I think that could be solved with A little work on the kernel. As long as I didn't over do it with the apps installed it ran very nicely though. I really hope that the original dev (who is a genius in my mind) keeps working on this port. I would be more than willing to do the testing and am used to logcats. Just let me know. And thank you for sharing.
i tried this the other day and i like it. but there are a couple of bugs that i found. when installing Gapps Google Music stops working on boot which i removed because i don't use it anyway. And no cameras work on it at all. all apps fail to load camera. other than that i like it. i hope someone works on this more or makes newer roms for this device.

I will be keeping my fingers crossed too. This is a good tablet. I picked up the Tab 3 t110 last year around Christmas and it too has almost no development. At least this tab has a ported CM based rom to tinker with. A good stock rooted rom would be nice too. I will be watching this thread to see if it goes anywhere.

Yea it would be nice for development on this. I have a stock rooted ROM that I rooted my self, I debloated it installed Xposed frameworks and Magiskv9. And it runs great.

That is what I am looking for too a zip of the stock rooted firmware. I can debloat it myself but its the zip that I wish I knew how to get or make.
Currently running Evervolv on my t350. Over joyed to have found a Rom and development on this device, I had lost hope for it. Thanks to everyone especially the dev.
I finally got this ROM to run very smoothly and everything is working as it should. Camera, videos, audio and Bluetooth all working. About the only thing that isn't that great is battery consumption but I think as the rom settles in it may get better. I hope that the original dev decides to officially support the t350 with his build of Evervolve. So far so good. Even the theme engine worked flawlessly.

the cameras and everything work on this out of the box, or did you need to do something to get them to work?

They worked without moding anything. But it wasn't an easy install... Lol.. I would add an app or two and let it go for a while. Doing it that way it worked great. The only issue was the battery usage. It wasn't good at all but if we had a kernel that would allow for tweaking, I think it could be tamed. Its a good start to having a ROM other than TouchWiz. : )
Please help me
I installed this custom rom and there is no google play services or nothing. just audio fx, calculator, chromium, clock. contacts, documents, downloads, email, gallery, music, settings and themes. No google anything. Please link me or tell me how to find the google play services version that i need, will be much appreciated thanks in advance
