You can download the boot.img directly on your mobile phone with d-h.st. Then install th boot.img with UKF (UniversalKernelFlash-tool by frapeti) from Playstore. Reboot to recovery and install Slimkat after this and it is done (follow the installation instructions from the first post).

Last time I could not install v.4 over v.3. None of the two boot.img worked. I had to install cm11 first. Btw, this is by far the fastest .uk (with nova launcher), most stable Rom for our hardware. Are there any tips for the gpu settings?

Hello

Thanks for the best ROM i ever tested so far. I think i found some bug but am not sure if there are other users who have it.

It is about wi-fi tethering. after i enable it and try to search for it with other devices the network hotspot that was supposed to to be visible is not showing up on any devices. So i tried out a manual connection mode. So i get the error, there is no network with that name..

Any1 having a solution for this?

Kind Regards,
Alexis

I'm not sure it depends on slimkat, but the phone is losing data connection (or becoming extremely slow) on random basis...
The signal indicator shows 3g and full signal.
As I workaround I switch the network mode to 2g and then back to 2g-3g and it works again.
To make sure it wasn't a problem of my carrier, I went back to slimbean for a couple of days and everything worked fine.
Then I flashed the last baseband though odin and flashed slimkat after a full wipe, but the problem was still there.
Maybe I will try with cm11 to make sure it's not a kk problem.

Anyone experienced this?

That's the only issue I found (except graphical bug of sim lock screen "compressed"), everything else works fine! :good:

Sometimes I'm still having this connection problem, also with other KK roms...I guess something is changed from JB to KK in 2G/3G switching philosophy: I think I get this issue when 3G has very low signal (even if signal indicator shows 3G with full signal) but the phone is not switching to 2G yet. If I do this manually it works again.

I noticed that 2G+3G mode in the rom (switch tile) corresponds to "WCDMA preferred" in *#*#4636#*#* hidden menu.
Is there any way to set "GSM auto (PRL)" in rom settings?
Selecting it directly from *#*#4636#*#* menu won't work because android will change it back as per rom setting.

So there is no fix for the tethering? I am seriously thinking about switching back to cm 11. It is the one tool i cant use phone without.
