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​ ​filled​ ​launcher!​​ ​-Make yourself at home.
Status bar customization
​Clock and Date? Battery? ​-More​ ​fun​ ​than​ ​you​ ​can​ ​shake​ ​a​ ​stick​ ​at.
Bugs
Same as CM14.1.

Camera microphone

First, congratulate the team that makes this ROM reach our devices Huawei GX8

I have a question. I have noticed that when recording videos the sound is very low, I have tried it with other camera applications and it is the same. I would greatly appreciate the opinions of other users who have this ROM installed.

Thanks in advance.
