"Possible to flash via odin, heimdall or cwm"
This means : We will be able to flash Slim kernel via PC (Odin-Heimdal) or via phone (CWM recovery). If a bootloop problem occurs, solution will be simpler, easier for us.

Problems restoring it?

Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium

Haven't restored it, but since I made it, the first since I moved to 3.6, I'm getting the bloody android.process FC, haven't had that in ages, cleared media storage data, rebooted, still there, just curious as to why it has started to happen all of a sudden.

Edit: Just reflashed everything, still the same...

Your memory card data is in a mnt/emmc folder. As for the battery, check the split on what is draining your battery the most. Personally I give it a couple of charge cycles to see how the rom performs in that aspect.

3.6 & Battery life

Hi everybody.

Unlike I said a few days ago (and after 4 full battery cycles), my battery life becomes as good as the previous versions of Slim ICS :D.

I just have a little mismatch as shown in the screenshot :(

Do someone have the same problem (unlike the status bar says, battery is at 7%) ?

Just letting the dev know...that I have ported the i9000 version of Slim ICS over to the infuse and it is running really solid :) credit was given to you

letting me know? How about asking before doing so? Its a well known fact that I don't like/ allow ports.

Guys, My SGS started acting weird with recent update(3.6). Foursqaure and other LBS apps aren't able to pick my current location using mobile network / Wi-Fi but when i turn on GPS, it works. (Google Maps works fine with mobile network even without GPS on)

The workaround i'm using to fix this is to reboot to recovery, wipe cache partition & Dalvic cache(Everything starts working fine after this).

After a day or two it goes back to old state. It is painful to reboot wipe cache everytime.


Any suggestion to fix this would be greatly appreciated

Can anyone who tried both solutions tell me which is better: stock or a custom kernel (like semaphore, etc)?
I'm using the stock one and feel fine with it, but i'd like to know if flashing another one would improve things like battery or RAM!

stock one is fine but I like the semaphore more. I have more RAM, voodoo sound, the phone is smooth and the battery is great.

Edit Edit: Back up and running again, that was annoying...

Krarvind please,

does systemUI and framework-res present in Slim are customized by you or are they original based from other source?

This in case we would like to substitute them (Sense 4.0 recently mod for example)

@krarvind

I do know that you don't take requests from public...but this is more of a plea...Could you please consider putting "quiet hours" from CM9 into your ROM? I do keep my phone running at night and the only that I need to wake up to is a phone call...quiet hours does just that.

I've tried several apps online but non come close what's there on CM9...please do consider...

    Slim ICS v2.7 - Stable
    IMPORTANT NOTE: :
    Starting with 2.7 I am forming a common base for galaxy variants, so every user needs to flash the Slim_ICS_Base_2.7 and their device essentials, so a I9000 user has to flash the Slim_ICS_2.7_I9000_Essentials as well, if you don't your system won't boot. I am doing this so i can make it easier on my side and allow users of vibrant and captivate to become Slim.

    • Smaller but common base for galaxy S variant phones
    • Modded Market where paid apps work ( if it doesn't, try this, manually push it in system/app, set permissions, reboot)
    • Modem provided in Essentials - it will leave your modem alone if there is one already.

    Market Workaround at 182 DPI:


    • Use this Vending.apk if the inbuilt one doesn't allow paid apps.

      or
    • Change to 240 dpi, reboot, clear market cache, and verify that all apps are seen ( if you can't see any at 182 dpi), then change it to 182 dpi and don't clear cache. All apps will show up until you clear cache next time.
      or
    • Buy LCD Density Modder Pro. Easily allows to change DPI and downloads a modded multi dpi marketplace.
