Hello guys, I've just recently found the pyramid in the drawer and started messing with it again.. so here's what I've been working on.

You get: All the latest SlimKat greatness, with @Flemmard's kernel. This is currently a WIP, as I'm working on making it completely bug free. It IS on par with Flemmard's trees and has various fixes, improvements and tweaks from me. Also worth noting is that it IS fairly stable.

I'd like to give a shout out to all the guys who have kept the sensation alive maintaining the AOSP trees. Without them, this wouldn't be possible, nor I would had been motivated to chime in and help. You rock guys

BUGS

busted LPA
Occasional shutdown on led flash burst when taking pics in low battery
No self-powered OTG


You tell me. They will end up in the list only if they're coming from a clean install and include a bugreport or logcat showing the issue. Help me help you ;)

Nice to see another Slimkat ! Can it be installed without issues, or is a tweak needed, as mentioned in post #7 ?
Btw, the screenshots look very nice.
Thanks

Sorry guys, was really tired when uploading. We're using by-name mounting now and recovery has to be updated to support it. I'll upload a working twrp in the OP

4ext is an awesome recovery, but also closed source. I'll try to get in touch with the developer

    I Luke that. You can go to settings -> display and raise fontsize. I've set it to big.


    Got one minor problem. Music was lagging/stuttering when mobile data was changing from E/G to H/4g (I've been going by train). I use Apollo player. Don't know if its a ROM or app problem though
    Your logs are fantastic.

    /sarcasm


    A few updates for you guys

    The good news: twrp seems to be working fine.

    The bad news: I forgot to include the HTC dumlock code, broke S-ON support.

    The good news: I'm building a new one with it.

    The bad news: Need someone to test.

    The good news: I found madmaxx82.

    The bad news: He was busy..

    The good news: but he's updating 4ext.

    The bad news: He's still testing it.

    The good news: You guys are reporting bugs!

    The bad news: Some exist, some not. I have no logs.

    The good news: Search button remapping works now

    The bad news: The keylayouts are an absolute mess.

    The good news: I threw all of the old keylayout mess to the bin and made a shiny new one

    The bad news: I'm not sure if I'll have time to upload a new build

    The good news: I'll update the recoveries

    A few notes

    • Always use the latest 4ext recovery. TWRP seems to trigger an emmc controller bug in some devices
    • Feel free to contribute on our gerrit :highfive:
