Can we dirty flash this over the 1.9 weekly?

Sent from my HTC's darkside.

Dirty flash worked fine for me. Been using it since Flinny sent it my way yesterday and have had no issues. Am tempted to try a Sense build to compare speaker volume, but Slim Bean is my daily driver.

Flinny, sorry to quote you here but I have that thread opened up in general before you posted here. Do you want me to rename that as a QnA thread? I know some developers dont like too much jibber jabber in the development threads.

if not im just going to close the other thread.

thanks for doing this, I love slimbean.

Did you try turning root access on under Developers Settings?

Sent from my HTC's darkside.

This.

I had the same issue. Find a SU.zip file and put it in your phone's Download folder. Don't unzip it. That fixed it for me. Drove me nuts for a couple of days, though.

That won't do it for you. Dev Settings, Root for Apps/ADB

I did that but it seems like it's automatically granting root to everything now.

Change the settings under this to prompt you.

To fix root just go to Chainfire's website and download the SuperSU .zip file and flash it in recovery. I think it fixes some issues that may currently exist between the integrated superuser in a lot of builds and our phones.

That won't do it for you. Dev Settings, Root for Apps/ADB

Not to pick any kind of squabble, but this is exactly what did it for me. I wiped clean and installed Slim Bean over and over, being sure to click the root for apps/ADB button every time. No root access. I would restore CM, Vanir, stock, BoneStock, whatever, and I had root again. Wipe, flash Slim Bean... no root, no matter what, until I put an SU.zip in the downloads folder without extracting it. Then bang, I had root. I don't know why it worked, but I do know it worked, when nothing else I tried did.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

    Just flashed, loving everything so far! Some questions though:

    Anyone getting force closes on Google search?
    Is there a way to add shortcuts onto the lockscreen circle?

    No force closes but you can try cleaning out data and cache under app settings.

    For the lockscreen shortcuts, under the header Personal, hit Security then Lock screen, and then choose slider targets.

    Weird.. maybe I'll stick with stock rooted for awhile..

    I was running great for a few days.. no issues whatsoever.. then it just went to crap.

    I've had zero issues with SlimBean since 4.2 on another phone. Been on Slim for two weeks now on the HTC One without any issues. Just popped up last night.

    Oh well, I walked into VZW today, and within 2 minutes they had setup a replacement to be shipped to me. Easy.

    I really doubt this Rom bricked your phone. There's no way it would work fine for a few days and then all of a sudden is magically bricked. Sounds like some kind of hardware failure or something.
