Slim rom has always been my perfect rom. I used slim6 for about 6 months continuously. Thanks @CodeZero.
Now coming to the slim7, I still like little tweaks here and there. But only thing I am missing is there is a feature they added to see all the previous notification (incase you cleared them by mistake) by holding on expanded notification bar. That feature was there on Nicklas's slim7. But I am not able to find it here.
Apart from that, everything is perfect.
And yeah, also waiting for oreo port just as others :D

anyway for oreo news, for me it's not easy to port oreo on this device. during i've not much experience on porting a new os to a device and i'm not really good at programming. It need much of implement of new drivers, sepolicy fix, kernel update and maybe some part of sensors.

So far i'm still stuck at sepolicy dependency for lineage 15, i'll try to fix it again when i've free time.

and note for slimroms, if some feature is disable or enable. it depends on changelog from my last update until this build, op should add current changelog to thread. so user can know what is added or change in that build

For battery not charged, maybe when you're using WiFi. WiFi usage is larger and use much voltage than your battery is charging, so your charge isn't fuel your battery. That's normal issue during charging from lollipop I think, so whenever you charge it's recommended to leave it without any activity and stay at sleep mode.

Thanks for your experience :)

Xperia M's charger offers only 0.5mA current.. so charging will be slow .... And as Nicklas Van Dam said if u r using WiFi then that might be a problem..


Please tell me when u r on wifi with charging, battery drain or just don't charge keeping same battery level...?
Thank you...

example if I only use the WiFi with the browser or YouTube maintains the same percentage of battery when I leave it at rest with the WiFi on it goes up the percentage but slowly so that it loads normally I have to turn off the WiFi and leave it at full rest now if I use a game charging the cell phone if the battery consumption is low but the battery life is normal the problem is during charging

For charging u can use 1A current charger, according to my info it won't damage your phone... Also help to charge phone on wifi... Try it and let me know if it works in your case..
