I'm glad to see that i'm not the only one having issues installing NH. And I thought it was just cuz i'm a noob.

Ok, here's the specks:
nexus 7 (2012) wifi - this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
using NRT
fresh lollipop 5.1.1 install, rooted, supersu, busybox, official twrp app,

I've tried installing a few different ways and the result is always the same: BRICKED! soft brick, but still.

No errors during install, unless i do a twrp install, then i get a zip verification failure error.

I do get a "your device is tilapia and your trying to install grouper... are you out of your **** mind??!!" warning, but after days of research, i have yet to find any tilapia builds. And the device ONLY bricks after installing NH, regardless of which method i use.

Anyway, please feel free to ping me for more info, but I'm really hoping for some assistance. It's been kicking my buttocks for 3 days now.
