Our internal systems are being worked on at the moment so they are ready for LP and the rolling of weeklies etc.
In the mean time grab my test builds from :-

And Gapps from :-
Here
NOTE : I have only tested these on a standard WiFi Nexus 9. I have no idea how/if they will perform/flash on another variant but if you know what you are doing and want to give it a try and let me know that would be nice also
*As usual Flash at your own risk*

Wohooo!! One more rom = )
Edit: Video Running the ROM: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1o_VdMjXqdo

Does this work for the LTE model too?

---

Do you install the kernel first or can you just install the rom.

FINALLY I've got a reason to unlock my n9! Thank you so much
Edit: Oh and it seems they decided to downgrade our kernel to 3.4.x ;p

SLIM Team. Just a little mistake in the OP. I don't think they'll downgrade

Anyways, there hasn't been an official announcement yet about a public rom, so why bother?

There is no downloadable rom available at the moment

---

Yeah found a bug in the build I did yesterday and was going to post. Just a little issue with the current slimlauncher. I'll post a build once it's resolved. And yes the op is wrong in places . It'll be fixed.
the 3.4.x kernel thing was because XDA's devdb doesn't list anything higher yet

---

2nd post has temporary links in

---

Maybe I will test with the lte model

@Flinny booted fine on LTE model. The boot although took a long time.
Mobile data didn't work and had to insert my APNs manually
Is the Github sources updated? I like to build my own rom zips

---

First boot takes a while but should be fine after. The flounder device and kernel are on my github at the moment, I'm waiting for them to be forked to SlimROM. All of the patches required to build though is another matter. Some are merged, some are still on gerrit. I'm pushing them through as fast as I can.
So data works once you input the apn's? Which provider are you using?

Data works (LTE) fine after inserting the apn.
Not sure if it would have found them if I had let it search them in the setup wizard little longer.
I am using TeliaSonera/Sonera (Finnish carrier)
Everything seems to be working, haven't found any big bugs yet, so very nice work

---

Hey there, after installing the rom i can't get my pc to recognise the nexus 9. Any idea why?
Also the lower dpi seems to cause issues with chrome. New tabs aren't shown properly.
And supersuser seems to be broken or at least for me.

Thank you & Slim Team! :highfive:
Your test version works really wonderful ... ! I look forward to more.
