Some hints:

1. Keep in mind that this are early beta stage builds!!!!!! Means bugs can happen. So please only use this builds if you want to help us and iron out the bugs with proper bugreports etc (see third post about how to submit a bugreport)

2. Be sure you are on latest CWM recovery or TWRP!!!!!!

3. Not all gapps packages right now are nice working. You can try others but at least I know that the one linked here is working (it only does not have the new google launcher). If you have other gapps which are working you can link it here of course

4. Full wipe when coming from any 4.3 rom (as well format system manually please)

Reporting Bugs

When you submit a bug you want to make sure that nothing from your side is causing it. Otherwise your developer might be hunting a bug which doesn't really exist.

The best way to achieve this is by doing the following.

1. Make a nandroid backup.

2. Perform a full wipe (factory reset + wipe /system)
Now we have two different ways depending on what kind of problem you're having.

3a. When you're having a problem with a ROM function, flash just the ROM without GAPPS etc. and boot back into the system. You will boot directly onto the homescreen.

3b. When you're having a problem with a 3rd party app in combination with our ROM then flash the ROM and GAPPS.
Boot now back into the system. You will boot to the setup wizard.
Log in to your Google account but make sure that you untick "Restore from my Google Account to this phone/tablet".
Finish the setup and open the playstore and download only the app you're having problems with.

4. Start a logcat recording and reproduce the bug (if possible more than once) while taking the logcat. If you don't know how to get a logcat read this tutorial or this.

5. Post the logcat in a txt file (this is important because you otherwise clog up the threads with your log) in the correct thread.
Please also write detailed description how we can reproduce the bug.

6. Restore your backup from point 1 and wait for a fix (don't ask for ETAs).

yeah !!! finnally !!!! tomorrow i try

alpinista82 · Dec 11, 2013

First impression after trying it for the last two hours: very good for a beta. Some features from the advanced settings are still missing, but I am sure we just need to be a little patient for them to be added. At least it is stable and everything seems to work as expected.

Fantastic rom, everything working as it should for my needs. It was well worth the wait

Looking forward to the integration of the SlimRom features e.g. screen colour tweaks etc.

@scuba156 - will we be having weekly updates as the N7100 wasn't on the SlimKat list for weekly updates?

Great rom again, appreciate your time and effort making it

Wow, that was fast work. I didn't know beta 1.6 was available. Have just flashed and all is still good.

Is there any way to disable the mouse pointer when using the spen?
