With version from 16 November I have everything running fine except for proximity sensor in calls. Everything else is great. FWIW I'm in UK on EE 4gee using Dalvik (for now due to compatibility of many apps).

Just to update, a different modem didn't help at all.

It was worth a try. I have everything running great except for the proximity sensor. It worked briefly but now doesnt. I have tested it using Android Sensor tester and it is not registering a sausage. A big issue during phone calls unless I use bluetooth or turn the screen off during calls.

I was initially getting FCs with Clock but that was fixed by forcing the app to close then clearing the data.

Great work Slim! I had been waiting for Stock 4.3.... which is now here.... and which is now outdated by your fantastic work.

Superuser doesn't allow RW access to system for some reason. Flashing SuperSU 1.69 zip from recovery seems to have resolved this.

Any thoughts / ideas of why this was the case or whether using SuperSU was a bad idea. It all appears fine at the mo.

ypu need to go into SU settings (the app one, not built in) unclick "respect cm superuser settings" should work after that. It did for me.

Cm11 is working great, everything works except for external SD Card...cell signal and camera are working :)

Sent from my SGH-T889 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Regarding signal issue I recommend using the latest CWM when flashing. I got the same problem when using TWRP but with latest CWM, I managed to have signal.

EDIT: This is the first time I have installed Slim ROMs so I was wondering, is it a way to change the dpi? Everything appears kind of small. Thanks.

U can try edit build.prop inside the root system folder. Look for ro.sf.lcd_density text line. It should be 245, change it to 320. Save and reboot.

Use Rom Toolbox (Lite or Pro) to change for now. Option isn't in the settings yet...

Thanks!

not sure what happened in this post but apparently it mixed things up, the replies are like it was me the one who asked to change dpi but it wasnt me, this is definitively NOT the firt time i use or flash Slim roms LOL xD

edit: im just saying this because im getting notifications of being quoted, not because i dont appreciate the help, it is always welcomed ;)

I'm currently trying out lion rom 4.3. I did flash this rom earlier and thought I'd just mention that rocket player music app doesn't detect the sd card on slimkat. But does on 4.3 slimbean

GT N7105 with XDA Premium......that is all......

    Question for @prbassplayer or anyone who has found out how to do it...
    How do I get into performance settings on this ROM?
    Used to use use cm11 and could set all sorts of performance tweaks. Not looking to over clock this more looking to tweak to really stretch battery life to the max
