For some reason I can't get art to work with this ROM. It doesn't boot when I enable it. Bootanimation just keep going. Someone that can confirm?

You can even use stock compiled slim.
i guess it's toolchain related, cause this already happend a few releases ago.
maybe @infected_ will fix it when he got time.


yes, its because of the ROM code being compiled with sabermod 4.8.4 .. its an easy fix. next build will be ok.

regards.

Hello, it is possible to get Skype working on this ROM?
On Stock Slimkat it works well. But on this moded ROM Skype cant make calls.
But this ROM is much faster.

From what I understand, sabermod toolchains are incompatible with Skype, so by definition this ROM won't work with Skype. Sorry I'm in the same situation, but this is a case where you can't have your cake and eat it too.

going to install this over the offical Slim-4.4.4.build.9.0.WEEKLY-8326 because I'm all about more battery and not sure if placebo but seems some say no more audio glitch, that quite frankly I've noticed acrossed many roms and kernels since buying v500 a year ago i.e. the short, sporadic buzzing sound.

anyway... running 4.2.2 base and would like to just flash this right over official despite official more recent build than 12.29, is that OK? Or perhaps there is a new weekly in the workd... 2nd, what about RedKernel-r014, or is that a no-no and just stick w/ the kernel included in this ROM?

Thank you thank you!

About development read the fifth post above yours. I installed lollipop on my v500 and it's beautiful and smooth (liquidsmooth here), try that

    Flashing Instructions

    First time installing:

    Flash CWM recovery or TWPR recovery.
    Option #1 = http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2588671
    Option #2 = http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2641409
    Place build zip + gapps on internal/external memory
    reboot into recovery
    wipe /system /data /cache
    flash build + gapps
    wipe cache
    reboot
    you're done, enjoy!

    Coming from previous build version:
    Flash build, flash gapps
    you're done, enjoy!

    Gapps = SlimRom Gapps

    F.A.Q (Frequently Asked Questions)

    What is the difference between these builds and the official builds?

    These are unofficial builds of SlimKat for the v500/LG G Pad.
    ROM is built using the same source code (github) like the official one but with these following additions:
    • Compiled using linaro arm-eabi 4.7.4 14.04 (kernel code) & sabermod arm-linux-androideabi 4.8.3 14.04 (rom code) toolchain compilers
    • May contain some custom cherry-picks. Always see changelog for details.
    • Cross-compiled using those custom toolchains results in a more smoother, faster, and battery friendly ROM

    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.

    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.

    About GCC main compiler cflags
    -O1
    Optimize. Optimizing compilation takes somewhat more time, and a lot more memory for a large function. With -O, the compiler tries to reduce code size and execution time, without performing any optimizations that take a great deal of compilation time.

    -O2
    Optimize even more. GCC performs nearly all supported optimizations that do not involve a space-speed tradeoff. As compared to -O, this option increases both compilation time and the performance of the generated code. -O2 turns on all optimization flags specified by -O.

    -O3
    Optimize yet more. -O3 turns on all optimizations specified by -O2 and also turns on the -finline-functions, -funswitch-loops, -fpredictive-commoning, -fgcse-after-reload, -ftree-loop-vectorize, -ftree-slp-vectorize, -fvect-cost-model, -ftree-partial-pre and -fipa-cp-clone options.

    -Os
    Optimize for size. -Os enables all -O2 optimizations that do not typically increase code size. It also performs further optimizations designed to reduce code size.

    weekly 8.4 is up!

    sorry for the delay. only today was able to fix a compile error retaled to external/e2fsprogs repo, and the commit to build with the custom toolchains and optimizations.

    regards.
