The idea behind this project is to compile a Pure AOSP ROM. The difference is I have been little by little including and testing new changes and fixes added to the AOSP code from Google that has not yet been tagged or added to the release branch and will most likely be added into a future Lollipop update., hence the reason for 5.0.2_Plus. The only change added that was not committed by Google is that the ZIP can be flashed in TWRP without replacing TWRP with the Stock Recovery and that is it.

There is more coming but would like to first verify my testing on what has been done so far. The idea is to stay ahead of the curve with fixes and updates coming down from Google before they are released. As offered in the development Q&A Thread I started with this idea is that anyone who is able is welcome to jump on and help. All and all is just sifting over the AOSP Master branch adding new commits that have not yet been tagged as part of a release branch. Thought of the idea after reading a statement from Google true or not that allot of bug fixes have already or are in the process of being added into ASOP. These commits all come from the master branch developers do not build from and is more of a staging ground for future releases. A few of these commits are less than a week old. Anyhow so Instead of this being my Rom I would like us to just all have the most updated code base to work with so let me know and will give full permission to the Github organization. We wiil just need to set up separate branches for testing to insure our Master branch is stable at all times so it can be used and trusted by all our devs to use in their Roms. I am sure we can gather a team of testing volunteers. Otherwise this is again 100% AOSP code without any modifications outside what has been committed by Google and planned on keeping it this way. Although I am posting like stated above would not like to think this is my Rom but more for the community in general so our Developers have the latest stable code to work with when creating Roms and am not just posting because as Google has proven with Lollipop the more testers the better as we all have different set-ups and use are devices differently but I also wanted to give the project/idea a bit of attention.

A Few Added Update Examples.

So far I have been using the "Mini Modular package" for testing without any issues.

Root
Root is optional but recommend SuperSU

Have had version 2.37 in storage and had been using without issue but updated to 2,40 with last test without any issues. What can I say Im lazy that way so unless having an issue just used what works but figured most would grab the latest so thought it best to give it a test before posting.

Kernel is also %100 stock but including a shameless plug for my Starship Kernel as in testing have worked well together and is the only other Kernel verified though am sure you should not have any problem with other AOSP/Stock Kernels.

As usual I am not responsible for your device and you are using anything posted in this thread at your own Risk.

Is %100 pure AOSP so no screen shots as am sure you are aware what it looks like at this point.

Besides this am about %80 done Starship L Rom and have offered to join a development team so lots going on but plan to keep this up and finish my new Starship L rom. Otherwise looking very much foreword to once again working as part of a team as since I started developing 3 years ago these last few month of Nexus ownership has been the first time I have worked alone and so much more prefer having a team to work with and discuss things with. Love my cat but pretty sure he doesn’t understand what I am talking about and my friends although interested are intimidated believing developing is so over their heads they could never do it .
