Patiently waiting for slimkat halo;)

+1. Slim have made good progress for the d2 devices, hope to have the first bets within next week

So far Slim is pretty much vanilla KitKat and they're working on adding back their features. Most of the Settings menus are still missing judging by their repo. We'll have to wait until they add their stuff back before I can try to do the same.

Has anyone encountered their power menu not being deployed when the power button is pressed? It mysteriously went missing on my device. The power button works, but just turns display off. Many thanks!

Maybe a stupid question, but did you hold down the power button for a second or two? Just pressing and releasing quickly will turn off the display. Pressing and holding it down should bring up the options to power off, reboot, etc.

Good question, lol. You never know with some users. Yeah, I've held it down but the menu isn't popping up.. very strange that it was working fine for the entire time I've had this rom running on my device

As a workaround, you might try the Quick Boot app. I use a swipe gesture to launch it from Nova Launcher, and it's also one of my lock screen targets. I hardly ever use the power button .

I'll give it a whirl. The only option I ever use from that power menu is screenshot which also can be achieved with a button combo so.. No big deal

    Just noticed Slim team is committing changes on Github for the stable release. Great.

    Can we have the SlimHalo before the Slim weekly?

    Sorry man but I'll release build 2.0 tomorrow or Sunday.
    In the meantime here's some reading about Slim history. Congratulations Slim for getting this far. Keep up the good work !
