SlimKat - two questions

Hi,

Great work on the SlimKat build, it looks really slick and doesn't CTD as much as the JB ROM I was running previously.

Two questions:

• I saw mention of a ROM to get the LED illumination bar working. Can someone point me to it?
• My phone doesn't recognise my headphones any more. Anyone else seen this?

You need to edit your build.prop file, as mentioned in the main thread. When I tried this, I ended up breaking the boot for a while, until I figured out it was a permissions problem; so be careful. The following process works for me.

Connect your phone, with USB debugging on. You'll be using

adb

to fiddle with the files. At a command prompt, type:

adb shell

That will give you a shell prompt in your phone. Now type:

cd /system
cp build.prop build.propbak
sed -i s/ro.sf.lcd_density=.*/ro.sf.lcd_density=180/ build.prop
exit

The second line is backing up the existing build.prop, so you can put it back if you get into trouble. The third line edits the build.prop in place, replacing the line that sets the display density with one set to 180. That makes it look right for me. Values between 180 and 280 should definitely work; larger number, larger icons.

Then reboot, and you should be back to a good size.

No mantiene varias apps abiertas.

Muy buen ROM con perfecto rendimiento pero aun no consigo manera de escuchar musica respondiendo en BBM o mientras chateo por el Whatsapp,no mantiene dos procesos a la vez.
