Please note these builds are under heavy development!

Known issues
  • Vibrations during audio playback may cause weird distortion
  • Headset in-call mic uses phone

Since the SGS4 is so new, development is happening very rapidly. This should be taken into consideration when flashing any 4.2.2 AOSP-based builds on the device. Known issues will be listed here.

Loved it on my.s3. But is there a way to make a hybrid. I love my touch wiz features but like the slim build

I have been waiting for this ROM, painfully running any other AOSP ROM I could find. Glad to be back on the best ROM out there!! Glad to see this phone getting support from you guys!

Blk thank you for this ROM. It is the fastest running ROM on the GS4 and so far is rock solid. I also managed to get Acid Sound Mod v5 working by flashing and adding the build prop lines manually. For you Acid Mod lovers V7 and V8 break phone audio in both Slim and 05-10 CM10.1 nightly. Turning on extra voice gain in call in device/advanced will break phone audio. It's awesome that we are starting at the same point where the S3 left off in features and stability and this phone still isn't even available in T-Mobile stores until either the 15th or 18th. I ordered two over the phone from T-Mobile and got free next day shipping and got them next day. I would also recommend going in to Settings/Device/Advanced and setting mDnie mode to Dynamic and turn of CABC so the screen doesn't occasionally dim. It gives the screen more pop similar to Trinity Colors on S3 or Voodoo Color on the Vibrant. Thank you Blk for including 192mhz min clock also. There is definitely no need overclock this phone with 1.9Ghz quad core because it blows my S3 away in overall speed! I can't wait until KT747 kernel comes to our S4! Slim has always been my go to base ROM.

Anyone else getting a force close on Google Voice Search? I cleared and it is a wipe install.

The compass sensors don't appear to be working with no directional arrows in maps or compass app but it doesn't work in cm10.1 nightly either. I'm sure this will be fixed soon so no boggy. GPS still locks down to 3m indoors fairly quickly.

Try playing with gyroscope calibration. I just tested mine and it seemed off until I calibrated it in settings - device. I unchecked the use calibrated data toggle, set it down on the ground and then checked it and hit calibrate.

Google voice search seems to work fine from here on my end. Try clearing google search / google now data and if that doesn't work provide a log.

That goes for anybody reporting issues -- because this is a beta release there is expected to be problems. It would really help me and the rest of the slim team if you guys could get logs and outline the steps to reproduce issues when they occur.

Thank you everyone for your thanks and initial support. This is only the beginning but with such a solid base I'm really looking forward to continuing development on SlimBean for this device!

The bluetooth audio for calls is not working on this ROM. I don't have access to a laptop today so I cannot post a logcat atm. I will post one as soon as I can get to my laptop and can do some diags. Hopefully we can get this fixed as this is a big deal for me and I really love this ROM! Thanks again for all the work on this great ROM!!

Running very smooth so far. One issue I'm having is that Wi-Fi will not stay on. Anyone else setting this?

Also, default dpi on this ROM is set at 361, which is a little small for my liking. Although, this seems a little odd, as 361 would usually make everything very large in my experience. Do I dare try setting the dpi higher in hopes to increase the size? What is the phones default dpi? I thought it was 320?

Stock is actually 440. We're xxhdpi now so the dpi increases accordingly. Slim by default uses a lower dpi which you can change in the settings.

I am finding that the "reboot" issue is happening intermittently (read: sometimes it reboots correctly, other times it just shuts off). I will try and log it, and upload a logcat a next time it happens..
I'm really not sure why it's only working "sometimes".
However, it isn't really an issue for me, as there is a workaround posted in the OP.

Wi-Fi calling is only supported in touchwiz roms

Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda premium

Is there a particular reason these other ROMs can't support it? Is it not just an app? I loved SlimBean on my previous phone but WiFi calling is invaluable and a huge battery saver for me now that I switched to T-Mobile.

WiFi calling has never worked on any ROM other than a touchwiz based one. Pull the apk from a touchwiz ROM and see if it works.

    Hey guys, as some of you may have noticed, build 6 is out for SlimBean. cordell & I have delayed the jflte builds until a bit later today as we're still doing testing on all the new changes that have been merged into the CM jf-common branches the past few days.

    While there have been some reports of headset BT audio working now, I've also noticed from my testing that BT A2DP audio quality in general seems to have taken a bit of a hit. We're making local changes and trying a few different things to make sure the best build can be out for you guys.

    That said, build 6 *will* be out in the very near future, but now you know why it's not on the site yet.
