SlimRoms presents: Slim7 Nougat
SlimRoms is a custom android operating system. Our main goal is to offer users a slimmed down yet feature rich alternative to other android operating systems.
The entire SlimTeam work together to bring you this tailor-made beauty straight from Android Open Source Project (AOSP) source code.
All of the sources can be publicly viewed through GitHub and you can stop by our public Gerrit to submit patches of any type.

Slim7 is the project name for SlimRoms based on Android 7.X.X Nougat.

Although some of these may not be present yet in the ROM, Slim typically offers the following original features:
  • Slim Navbar & Hardware key rebinding
    Single tap action,?? ?long press action, double tap action!-We’ve got you covered.
  • Slim Actions & Chamber of secrets
    Customize your device to the fullest....You’re a wizard!
  • SlimRecents
    A Faster alternative to stock recents -Your device, your choice.
  • SlimLauncher
    An Open source,feature?filledauncher!-Make yourself at home
  • Status bar customization
    Clock and Date Battery More fun than you can shake a stick at
.

Coming from another ROM, OR if a CLEAN FLASH is required
1) Download the Slim7 zip file (See Post #2)
2) Download a 7.0 GApps package
3) Boot into recovery (TWRP)
4) Full wipe (Dalvik Cache, Cache, System, Factory Data Reset)
5) Flash the Slim7 zip file
6) Flash Nougat-compatible GApps
7) Reboot

Nice runs smooth but I can't change the brightness at all it's fixed no matter what I do.

edit: tried a reflash but nope still can't change the brightness it's fixed on max brightness.

Just check it... You already know where to look... :)
But TheStrix is listed as conttributor so helium is not supported I guess...

No but if you flash my modified boot IMG posted on page 4 of strixes cm14.1 thread you'll have all 8

i saw the post..but i have the hydrogen version with 6 cores..will it work or u have another boot.img that might help?what about hyper?
Oh I see you mean the frequency issues on the big cores ? That issue is much deeper in the source code if so and I'd wait for Strix to provide a fix as I have no PC currently :(

He knows much more than I do aswell I'm just a tinkerer

What about slim6? helium really needs a stable and functional source built rom ;p Thank you for your work!
From the experience I tried the source built rom, I think @ffboy2009's cm13 is comparatively more stable for helium, could you please build a slim6 rom? ;p
