I used the fix in post #7, works fine.

nice Rom so far thank you very much

suiller · May 7, 2014

I love slim way, just installed, pity I wasn't able to start from a dirty flash (I tried with latest cm but didn't work)

anyway after a full wipe :cyclops: (at least I saved & restored apk from /data folder) all seems to work as expected, the camera app is the best one I found... very stable & worked flawless... reminded me original htc camera app

ps: for those interested in commands to 1st backup apk & 2nd restore later on a wiped rom

1st command (backup):

adb shell "tar cvz -f /sdcard/backup_data_app.tgz -C /sdcard/ /data/app"

2nd command (restore):

adb shell "tar xvz -C / -f /sdcard/backup_data_app.tgz"

so:

1. backup apks (1st cmd)
2. reboot + wipe & install slim rom
3. wait new installation come up then restore apks (2nd cmd)
4. reboot & you'll find old apks, of course they must be reconfigured from scratch but at least you don't have to re-download everything

Why get all hacky when there are so many good backup apps out there that will gladly fetch your apps data too? Eg TiBu and Mybackup root

If it's status 0, it's the recovery incompatibility. If it's something else, you probably compressed the ROM while zipping. Give twrp a go

Read the install instructions from the link on the 1st post. This is Slim

Click to expand...

Click to collapse

I used my phone, es file explorer to zip it as I don't have access to a computer at the moment

Found an app (7zipper) will give that a Try
Still the same, not flashing

Use explorer by speedsoftware.

because I use with a batch script... faster & easier (just one click) :good:

I'm one of the old school

As a massive 4EXT fan I can say that TWRP does the job just as well. Avoid CWMR though...

Not yet. I'll add it on the todo list :good:

DPI should be 182. The FC is weird, but shouldn't be worrying, I'll look into it. 4ext is not compatible yet, use the TWRP from UnoRoms or the one in my downloads folder.

Just uploaded a recovery flashable version of twrp. If you want to use 4ext, you need to wait until it gets updated

@dexter93 I saw you changed something about gps in your device tree, may I ask what differences that makes? On other roms I have problems with gps not being accurate and somehow not following my position. I don't have time atm to test your rom, that's why I ask.
