Making SlimLP more faster and smoother!

SlimSaber: UBER toolchain 4.8.5
SlimKernel: UBER toolchain 4.9.3

Code:
/* #include <std_disclaimer.h>
*
*  Your phone's warranty is now void.
*  This is a custom ROM developed by Warrior1208. 
*  You are flashing this on your Samsung Galaxy SII(Intl) at your own peril.
*  I am not responsible for hard bricks, damages to SD Cards, thermonuclear war, 
*  or you getting fired because the alarm app failed.
*  I would definitely help you out if you are stuck somewhere, provided you give 
*  me clear details of the mishap.
*  Don't ask for ETA's cause there is a thing called "LIFE" outside XDA.
*/

This is the thread for unofficial builds of SlimLP, compiled with SaberMOD and UBER Toolchains. I choose SlimROMs as base because they're based on AOSP, and hence do not include unnecessary bloatwares.
SlimROM is a custom android operating system. The main goal is to offer users a slimmed down but still feature rich alternative to other android operating systems.
The entire SlimTeam works together to bring you this tailor-made beauty straight from Android Open Source Project (AOSP) source code.

What's New:
Compiled with a custom toolchain UBER for more performance and better battery life
Compiled with the GCC optimization level -O3
Compiled with strict-aliasing compiler optimization
Added patches to fix GCC strict-aliasing violation rules
Added ARMv7 optimized string handling routines for more smoothness and more memory optimization
Disabled SQLite fsync to increase I/O performance
Cherry-picked some AOSP bug and memory leak fixes
Cherry-picked some KitKat bug and memory leak fixes

What's Working:
RIL(Mobile and Data Network)
Camera
Video Recording
Wi-Fi
Bluetooth
Recovery
ADB
GPS
Proximity Sensor
Automatic Brightness Sensor
External SD Card
Internal SD Card
Video Playback
Physical Buttons
Speaker
Airplane Mode
ART

Bugs/Not Working:
Everything works.

How To Install:
1. Download the ROM and the GApps and place them on your SD Card/Internal Storage.
2. Reboot phone to recovery.
3. Wipe data, cache(factory reset), dalvik/art cache and system.
4. Flash the ROM and the GApps.
5. Flash SuperSU_*version*.zip to gain root access.
6. Reboot System. (First boot takes 5-6 minutes. Be patient.)

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q. What are RRO LAYERS?
Basically, used to theme various frameworks/apps. Check here for the know-how: http://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/official-layers-bitsyko-apps-rro-t3012172

Q. How to disable CELL BROADCAST RECEIVER?
There are two ways to disable it:
Disable its setting: CHECK HERE
Freeze it: Use Titanium Backup and freeze 'Mobile Broadcast'

Q. How to change the DPI?

You'll need to manually change the DPI by installing Texdroider DPI from the playstore.
Another way can be via a root explorer, in which you've to edit /system/build.prop and change ro.sf.lcd_density to the desired value.
The default density for the Samsung Galaxy SII is 240.

Q. Stuck at Samsung Logo, and want the data back?
Follow this steps to get rid of the stuck and to have back your valuable data:
  • Go to recovery and make a twrp/cwm backup.
  • Do a full wipe + mount system + format system.
  • Flash the rom + gapps.
  • Reboot to rom and skip the setup wizard.
  • Go to recovery again and advance restore your data only.
  • Reboot.

Q. What is a toolchain?
In software, a toolchain is the set of programming tools that are used to create a product (typically another computer program or system of programs). The tools may be used in a chain, so that the output of each tool becomes the input for the next, but the term is used widely to refer to any set of linked development tools.
A simple software development toolchain consists of a compiler and linker to transform the source code into an executable program, libraries to provide interfaces to the operating system, and a debugger. A complex product such as a video game needs tools for preparing sound effects, music, textures, 3-dimensional models, and animations, and further tools for combining these resources into the finished product.

Q. What is SaberMOD?
SaberMod is a AOSP based ROM with some extra features added in and mostly from CyanogenMod. SaberMod started out pure AOSP when android 4.2.1 launched. Originally it was pure AOSP with a few extra features I ported over from CyanogeMod and linaro optimizations. Then I rebased everything off of rasbeanjelly because I liked many features found in rasbean. Since then I've modified a lot of the code so not much of it is rasbeanjelly based anymore. But you will still find some commonly used features found in rasbeanjelly. SaberMod is not a rasbeanjelly or CM clone, or KANG. Custom kernels are included for certain devices when available. These are personal builds we make for ourselves and originally became very popular in the nexus 7 forums. Features are very rarely added, and are built to SaberMod's team members liking.


Q. What is Linaro?

Linaro is the place where engineers from the world's leading technology companies define the future of Linux on ARM. The company is a not-for-profit engineering organization with over 120 engineers working on consolidating and optimizing open source software for the ARM architecture, including the GCC toolchain, the Linux kernel, ARM power management, graphics and multimedia interfaces.

Basically, this ROM has some CM based apps and other packages, which in comparison to SlimRom's apps and packages, are better looking(MATERIALIZED).
Nav bar, kernel auditor, etc. options are also there.
I would add some other kernel optimizations, probably in the new build coming up in a couple of days.
Enjoy, and Regards! :D

Thanks man. I read a post here about memory leak and you told them that it was fixed on 5.1. AFAIK, Lysergic Acid somehow fixed this on his last build of CM12 that's why using the xposed app with memory leak fix was not recommended.

Just one thing to report, getting restarts when screen goes off.
