August 22: Rom Updated to Beta 0.6 (LP 5.1.1 r13). Latest sources.

TWRP 2.8.7 in boot: Manual brightness is fixed by changing horrendously high back light value (18x Sony's high limit) mistakenly put in by Slim team resulting in no manual brightness and overheating. This is fixed now.

Dirty flashing is fine if you are on my previous build.

August 10: Rom Updated. This is Beta 0.4 (LP 5.1.1 r9). Latest Slim changes. Updated M5 kernel with CPU and GPU overclock. Kernel size reduced by 2 mb. Also incorporated latest CM commits into device tree to address some screen flickering. http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/105489/

You can flash dirty if upgrading from the previous build, just keep in mind that if you use Xposed, you must flash it before reboot. This also applies to Supersu. Otherwise, fresh install.

August 3: Guys. Stay away from July 25 build. It does cause overheating. I had an episode where my phone shut down and refused to boot for an hour. I guess Slimroms still have problems. Pitty. I have removed the download link...

July 29: Update addressing wifi disconnect after 15 min of sleep and excessive battery drain caused by arp packets related wakelocks

No need to wipe anything if you were on my previous build.

July 25: Rom updated to LP 5.1.1 r8. This is my change, since Slimrom team still uses earlier releases. They have substantially improved the rom sources, so, whatever I said about them in the past no longer applies.

1. Latest Google AOSP changes

2. Latest Slim changes

3. All my regular hardened features including hardened kernel, removed nefarious IPs, full network selection in Network, disabled wifi background scanning are in

4. Modified M5 kernel

5. Twrp 2.8.7 as a Fota image. The reason I put 2.8.7 in fota is that Slimteam still uses version 2.8.6, which has major bugs. In 2.8.7 most were fixed.

Instructions: Note that the boot.img does not include any recovery to prevent a collision with fota recovery

1. In TWRP format Data, then format System/Data/Cache

2. Flash the rom (don't reboot in system unless you already have recovery in fota)

3. Reboot in Bootloader

4. Flash TWRP.img like this: fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

5. Reboot

Download links: Removed

Here is the latest Slimrom Lollipop built on February 18.

Main changes:

Disabled creepy Selinux and activated Tomoyo as main security provider

Enabled all ciphers, as opposed 2 or 3 in standard releases

Enabled all hashes, digests and compression modes

Enabled all hashes for random number generation to result in a speedier device

Enabled 256 (as opposed to 128) bit encryption for device encryption

Increased weak 2048 RCA key length to 4096

Changes are implemented on kernel level and in /system/core/vold. As a result, you have a more secure and faster device with real protection for you; whereas Selinux, in my view, apart from being developed by an entity known for spying on people on mass scale, "secures" the device from you - meaning you are prevented from interfering with the constant flow of data from your device to their servers ...

Bugs: up-to-date Slimrom bugs

Install Instructions:

1. Be on Kitkat, have root and recovery

2. Enter recovery, wipe Data/Cache/System

3. Flash the rom

4. Don't reboot yet: for some reason Documents.app does not appear anywhere and there is no file manager to handle app install; therefore

5. Flash Slim file manager from kitkat (see Download links at the bottom of this post), which works on lollipop.

6. Now, reboot and enjoy

Download links for Main rom and Slimfilemanager are at the bottom of this post.

Read about getting recovery on honami here: http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z1/general/recovery-solution-lollypop-roms-t3000822/post58127334#post58127334

TWRP is now integrated, see post #5 for download.

Warning: I am not responsible for the destruction of your device and damage to surrounding areas. You are at your own peril. Also, if you don't care about security, stay away from this thread and get the regular version of this rom, which is available in Original Development or on Slimroms website. Comments or discussion about necessity for security, especially by those who have no idea what they are talking about, won't be tolerated. You have been warned. :cool:
