Root {rom} slim jim rom

hello exhibit community,

slimkitten-238x211.jpg


i present unofficial slim rom for the galaxy exhibit t599n. developed from the underbelly of cyanogenmod, a simplistic view of the current android version kit-kat. so help yerself to the pie and please share the experience so further development (if required) may be pursued. this rom is "half-ported" "half-source" due to the camera bug, my source build required some fine tuning (libs/apps ported) now for the fun part

WHATS SO GREAT ABOUT THIS ROM? check screeniez. storage info??!!/light and fluffy.

hello exhibit community,

i successfully compiled slim rom for the t599n. i need assisstance with the camera. when i run the camera from the terminal, the results are -->I/ActivityManager( 2129): START u0 {act=android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE flg=0 - Pastebin.com. the camera app disables a few moments after initial boot. the logcat shows -->E/HAL ( 1672): load: module=/system/lib/hw/camera.montblanc.so E/HAL ( - Pastebin.com which is clearly the problem. the error is referencing this -->https://github.com/SlimRoms/frameworks_native/blob/kk4.4-caf/libs/binder/MemoryBase.cpp. i swapped the camera libs from various roms, showing the same result. my guess is, a build with non caf source for native. any advice is greatly appreciated.
Are you using patch for ste

Well don't know if you've seen it or not but meticulus added the patch to fix the fc for video recording to his github. [ROM][4.4.4] Carbon ROM for Exhibit/Ace 2e [ T599N | T599 | T599V ] [METICULUS] - Post #153 - XDA Forums

thanks everyone. the patch-up was breaking the build. probably because due to caf branch. anyhow, i ported the libs, and various from andi`s slimrom. everything works now including recording. i dont have data atm, so testers after he allows me to host.

After all wipes do reboot recovery. Then flash all packages. Twrp bug or system related reasons. Any ROM fails unless I was installing with rebooting recovery as well.
