Seems to work fine. Thank you.

Any issues with root though?

I came from stock rooted. Formatted and installed and not sure how to get root back

Possibly, i haven't confirmed this bug myself, it was posted on SlimRom forums. Actually didn't even know there was two mics

. But the kernel sources are the same with CM and my AOSP build so either this bug is in those roms too or it's Slim specific bug.

As alirey ointed out, just install SuperSu. But when i had Slim installed it did have root, so i'm not sure why you didn't have it. Did you check the setting in Settings->Development-> root access (or something like that...)? It should be set to Apps or Apps&ADB

Hmm, haven't tried Full Screen. Maybe i'll install latest build with dualboot to check some things out.

nasaprinsloo · Feb 10, 2014

As a daily. Works great for me.

spegelius · Feb 10, 2014

Alright, installed latest build as dualbootable rom. Some testing with camera:

- first try with HDR result was hanged camera app and Cannot connect to camera when trying to start camera app. Logcat spits out some streaming errors as mm-camera-daemon tries to connect to camera, to no avail.
- reboot and second try. HDR works out of the box

. Turning HDR on and off works, however Gallery FC's when taking a pic with HDR

. Some outofbounds exception in logcat, related to decodeYUV422P. Hmm, haven't seen this with AOSP, but haven't actually tested camera in AOSP very thoroughly

All in all, there's stuff to do to get Active's camera working reliably.

Oh and the latest build is uploading, built yesterday

Just made a dirty flash. Everything seems fine. Thanks again... :thumbup:

Can you tell me for what GalaxyS3Settings.apk is?
I have deleted it but came back with the ROM.

It seems to be part of msm8960-common: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_msm8960-common.
Meaning it's part of SnapDragon device stuff. I don't know what it actually does, but apparently in Cyanogenmod it adds some additional options to settings perhaps? Propably with Slim also...

monac66 · Feb 11, 2014

does not boot it stays in boot loop

As nasaprinsloo pointed aout, did you do format? Factory reset might not be enough. To be sure, format /system, /data and /cache manually (maybe dalvik-cache also, and /preload).

Also, i assume you have CWM installed?

Personally, i've had no problems with installations. When coming from some other rom, facory reset and then flash. When flashing newer version, just dirty flash and it works.

nasaprinsloo · Feb 14, 2014

Just fyi

With normal tw my useable home screen area was extremely small. As well as the apps list could hold prob 50 apps. I liked it very much (the small size)

Using Nova launcher, back to normal full screen usage. With standard size icons.

The image really rocks... speedy and tiny...
Only problem so far is a errormessage that says "drive" stopped working ...a couple of times...
