This is CandyKat. Built straight from SlimRoms source with commits

from a variety of different Sources/ROMS. We wanted to give the users a fun,

fully customizable ROM.We aim to add more features as this project progresses.

We have also come up with the Candy Sweetener Pack. This is an Aroma installer

that is full of delicious treats. Inspired by the CandyShop thread on XDA it has

everything from glow dots to halo mods.

Hi yusopa,

You're more than welcome. I liked it too... so asked to be able to port it to Tilapia. And thanks to the wonderful people at CandyROM, I was able to do so.

So enjoy it ;)

Regards.

Hi Guys,

I have tried searching a lot in different XDA forums but haven't been able to find a definitive answer - is it possible to make GSM phone calls from nexus 7 3G on newer ROMS such as this one? Can someone please clarify this?

Thanks.

Hi smartymanav,

From what I've read here and there, some people have tried and I think some succeeded. But success was granted after difficult operations... and apparently with random results.

I reckon you've read the whole thread dedicated to this on this forum... I stopped monitoring it some time ago, so can't tell for sure if the project succeeded.

May I ask why you want to do that ? Is it because you want a single device bigger than a phablet to make your calls ? Or is to have mutiple SIM to make calls ?

Regards

Clean install from other custom ROM ...
Hi,

Can you describe a little more what's happening ?
Does it occur on boot or is it in the middle of something ?
Does it occur whilst just playing with the ROM or while you're working on a specific app ?

First thing to do is to enable "Root" and then reboot.
Please do so... and tell me if that error reappears.
I think I have played about 3 weeks with my Tilapia... and have had no FC or else at all :(

Regards.

Did a clean flash two days ago. All is working good. No problems so far.
Untill now it´s very smooth, much better than other N7 3g ROMs.

Can you please explain the way you overclocked your N7 3G?
I don´t know what "multi core controller" is.
