Oh, you can not zoom while filming video in FullHD?
I assume that's because in FullHD, you already use all possible pixels, and it's not possible to zoom in and keep it Full HD.
Dunno, I never photo, nor film with my old note. I didn't even know that the photo app worked. Last time I tried it some years ago, it crashed, and it was a known error, so haven't tried since.

I can reproduce this behaviour of the camera.
It's surely not the lack of pixels, but merely the lack of processing power.
Full HD (about 2 Megapixels) uses just a quarter of the sensor's 8 Megapixels, hence a 2x zoom would be theoretically possible.
I don't take it for a bug - imho not really worth making a fuss about.....

:(

Hello everyone. I was happily using slimsaber 4.4 for almost a year now. But today my phone alarm didnt wake me up. So i checked the phone and he was turned off. When i power it on there was a slim saber logo that was repeating it self for a half hour. After that i boot up in clockwork mode recovery trying to reinstall everything and in the middle of deletion system or partitioning it stopped. Now my phone is hard bricked I cant manage to go in to download mode or clockwork recovery. Is there any soluton for fixing it, I would love to go back to my slimsaber 4.4 kitkat rom :(

Thank you very much.

Do you have enough juice in the battery?

Ofcourse i have two batteries... and two galaxy notes. Its not battery i think its because of repartitioning in cwm recovery. SO i am stuck at black screen I mean no lights at all and can get into download mode or recovery mode. I need to flash a stock rom or something via odin or anything. Is there any solution?

Just want to confirm if anyone else have issue with bluetooth tethering? I tried to tether data from another phone to my n7000, but n7000 with Slimsaber 21102015 version will not tether via bluetooth. It in fact displays the bluetooth tether icon and on my other phone it displayed as 1 phone connected to bluetooth tethering, but no data goes through. Any solution?

GPS - Signal only available in "Android GPS Provider"

Hi
I have this problem with the Google Maps GPS signal. I don't get a accurate location and can't use the google maps navigation mode

My GPS works accurately with other apps (Waze, Openstreetmap, generally any app that can be used offline with GPS). I tried the app GPSfix and it seems that google play services doesn't get a signal from my "Android GPS Provider" service. When I turn on network location discovery I get a really fuzzy big location (which is way off) on both "Android Network Provider" and "Google Play Services" (see screenshot).

Is there a way to tell Google Maps to directly use the "Android GPS Provider" GPS data or somehow fix Google Play Services? I already tried installing a custom apk from here:

http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-services/google-play-services-9-4-52-release/
9.4.52 (036-127739847).apk

I use a galaxy note 1 n7000 with slimsaber 4.4.4 rom from this thread


Google Maps
Playstore updated (last update: 20160810)
(before I used the "normal gapps.zip from slimsaber, which also didn't get a signal)

GPS fix app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.androidlab.gpsfix


Do I need to reset my phone?

    SlimSaber n7000 Uber 4.8
    Making SlimKat more faster and smoother
    0pvn.png

    SlimSaber: Uber toolchain 4.8.4
    SlimKernel: Uber toolchain 4.9.4

    Disclaimer
    I'm not responsible for any damages on your device.

    After having a good response for some months in the i9100 thread, I decided to share this build since I also built for n7000.
    My focus is to optimize the ROM in many areas and compiled it with custom toolchain Uber for more performance and smoothness.
    I choose SlimRoms as a base because it is a lightweight and not a bloated ROM, but it still has rich features. Combined with some of CM features, I bake a ROM that has more useful features but still lightweight.
    The ROM and the kernel are tested by me first before I make it available online. I could have overseen something during testing, please be understand.

    Features summary
    See here. Thanks a lot Harsha Raj!

    Installation instructions
    Coming from 4.1.x or 4.2.x or 4.3.x or another ROM to 4.4.x:
    • Flash a kitkat compatible recovery from here. A kernel is a recovery and a recovery is a kernel.
    • Reboot to recovery. Not to the system!
    • Full wipe: data, cache, dalvik cache.
    • Mount system and format system partition manually.
    • Flash the unofficial build.
    • Flash gapps from here. Please use the 'minimal' one since our system partition is not big enough to carry the 'full' one.
    Coming from previous unofficial build:
    • Wipe cache and dalvik cache.
    • Flash the unofficial build.
    • No need to re-flash gapps. Gapps will be restored back automatically by backup tool during flashing.
    Known Issues
    • Music player stops playing music from sdcard after some time. See here - Fixed since 20141221.
    • Occasional freezes if using governor other than ondemand. Use only ondemand for the time being.
    F.A.Q
    See second post.

    Latest release
    Latest 4.4.4: 20151021
    Latest 4.4.3: 20140616
    Latest 4.4.2: 20140604

    F.A.Q (Freaking Annoying Questions)

    How to disable CellBroadcastReceiver
    There are three possibilities to disable it:
    • Disable its setting: See here
    • Remove it: Settings - SlimCenter - SlimSizer - Delete CellBroadcastReceiver
    • Freeze it: Use Titanium Backup and freeze 'Mobile Broadcast'
    Root doesn't work!

    • Enable 'Developer options'
      • Go to Settings -> About Phone
      • Tap on the Build Number 7 times
    • Go to Settings -> Developer options -> Root access
    • Choose 'Apps' or 'Apps and ADB'
    How to set zzmoove profile
    Available zzmoove profiles:
    1. Default
      Will set governor defaults
    2. Yank Battery
      A very good battery/performance balanced setting - DEV-NOTE: highly recommended! -
    3. Yank Battery Extreme
      Like yank battery but focus on battery saving
    4. ZaneZam Battery
      A more 'harsh' setting strictly focused on battery saving - DEV-NOTE: might give some lags! -
    5. ZaneZam Battery Plus
      NEW! reworked 'faster' battery setting - DEV-NOTE: recommended too! -
    6. ZaneZam Moderate
      NEW! setting based on 'ZaneZam Optimized' which has mainly (but not strictly only!) 2 cores online -
    7. ZaneZam Optimized
      Balanced setting with no focus in any direction - DEV-NOTE: relict from back in the days, even though some people still like it! -
    8. ZaneZam Performance
      All you can get from zzmoove in terms of performance but still has the fast - down scaling/hotplugging behaving
    9. ZaneZam InZane
      NEW! based on performance with new insane scaling active. a new experience!
    10. ZaneZam Gaming
      NEW! based on performance with scaling block enabled to avoid cpu overheating during gameplay
    How to set the zzmoove profile:
    • Go to Settings - Advanced options - Performance - choose zzmoove governor
    • Press menu key and choose Governor Settings
    • Search for 'profile_number' and pick a number from above
    • Press 'Apply values' and eventually enable 'Apply on boot'
    Only profile_number can be persisted, any other gov settings will be changed based on the chosen profile template.

    * Media scanner eating my battery
    * CPU stuck at 1.2 GHz
    * Random music player stop

    For media scanner problem, try this following solution first: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=47868557, also see this.
    At these problems could have the same root cause: The kitkat sdcard fuse daemon issue on the Exynos 4210 family of devices. There is no fix yet. See this thread for more information.

    How to check corrupt partition

    I have excessive RILJ wakelocks

    My recovery won't flash the 4.4 zip... aka "Status 7 error"... what do I do?
    You need a kitkat compatible cwm. See installation instructions in 1st op

    How to change DPI?
    Currently, this feature hasn't been ported... so you'll need to install Texdroider DPI from the playstore... or edit /system/build.prop and change ro.sf.lcd_density to the desired value

    Stuck at the Samsung logo
    Follow this steps to get rid of the stuck and to have back your valuable data:
    • Go to recovery and make a twrp/cwm backup.
    • Do a full wipe + mount system + format system.
    • Flash the rom + gapps.
    • Reboot to rom and skip the setup wizard.
    • Go to recovery again and advance restore your data only.
    • Reboot.

    What is the difference between these builds and the official builds?
    Short version: It is unofficial nightly builds whereas official one is stable and weekly builds.
    Long version: It is built using the same source (github) like the official one but with these following additional changes:
    What is Toolchain?
    In software, a toolchain is the set of programming tools that are used to create a product (typically another computer program or system of programs). The tools may be used in a chain, so that the output of each tool becomes the input for the next, but the term is used widely to refer to any set of linked development tools.
    A simple software development toolchain consists of a compiler and linker to transform the source code into an executable program, libraries to provide interfaces to the operating system, and a debugger. A complex product such as a video game needs tools for preparing sound effects, music, textures, 3-dimensional models, and animations, and further tools for combining these resources into the finished product.
    Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toolchain

    What is SaberMod?
    The term "SaberMod" is coming from:
    SaberMod is a AOSP based ROM with some extra features added in and mostly from CyanogenMod. SaberMod started out pure AOSP when android 4.2.1 launched. Originally it was pure AOSP with a few extra features I ported over from CyanogeMod and linaro optimizations. Then I rebased everything off of rasbeanjelly because I liked many features found in rasbean. Since then I've modified a lot of the code so not much of it is rasbeanjelly based anymore. But you will still find some commonly used features found in rasbeanjelly. SaberMod is not a rasbeanjelly or CM clone, or KANG. Custom kernels are included for certain devices when available. These are personal builds we make for ourselves and originally became very popular in the nexus 7 forums. Features are very rarely added, and are built to SaberMod's team members liking. Currently there are two members of SaberMod working on this project. Myself and @jarjar124 . Please understand our time is limited and we are only two people who have lives, and do not have 25-50 members like CyanogenMod to add things. And our goal is not to add a bunch of features that bloat the system of the ROM.

    What is Linaro?
    Linaro is the place where engineers from the world's leading technology companies define the future of Linux on ARM. The company is a not-for-profit engineering organization with over 120 engineers working on consolidating and optimizing open source software for the ARM architecture, including the GCC toolchain, the Linux kernel, ARM power management, graphics and multimedia interfaces.

    SlimKat

    SlimSaber 4.4.2

    Flashing instructions
    • Flash a kitkat compatible CWM from here. Thanks to GeeckoDev.
    • Reboot to recovery. Not to the system!
    • Full wipe: data, cache, dalvik cache.
    • Mount system and format system partition manually.
    • Flash the unofficial build.
    • Flash gapps from here.
    Changes
    • Synced with official release beta 1.9.
    • TRDS: Updates to some components and glowing border for dark images.
    • SlimCenter: Now you can check SlimSaber updates through SlimCenter. You'll be redirected to goo.im n7000 folder.
      This is still experimental and I'm using UbuntuOne hosting to check the version. Not sure if this free account can give enough bandwidth to handle version checking.
    • Some updates in framework base.
    • See changelog for the rest of changes.
    The changelog is incremental. If you want to know what has been changed since the first SlimKat, take a look into changelog folder on my goo.im.

    Notes
    • SlimKat is still WIP (work in progress), so some 4.3.1 features are still missing and they will be added gradually.
    • ART is working in this build, but beware of the consequences that ART needs more time to optimize the apps and takes more RAM.
    • If you find the icon or font too small, you can change the dpi with build.prop editor for example with this app. Change the "ro.sf.lcd_density" with your desire dpi.
    • The ROM is compiled using SaberMod 4.8 toolchain and the SlimKernel is compiled using SaberMod 4.7 toolchain.
    • The SlimKernel contains latest mali r3p2 and latest video drivers s3cfb.
    • From now on, SlimKat is using TWRP, a much better recovery than CWM.
