Please note these builds are no longer under development! - we've moved to 4.4 ;)

Known Issues:
General:
  • New YouTube from google can cause pixelated video in HD - when you run into this issue you can only use the older YouTube version till google hopefully fixes it with an update
  • Recents screen in expanded desktop shows on some apps a black thumbnail
  • uninstalling/updating apps may cause a soft reboot.....nothing major...app is uninstalled/updated correctly. The system just tries to clear the app completly. Can usually be prevented by "Settings -> Apps -> APPNAME -> Force Stop" before uninstalling.
Device Specific:
  • FCs on bootup after flashing AIO (and/or Aroma) Gapps... see below for fix - Fixed!
  • Random reboots on auto-rotate (mostly when using YouTube and/or Camera) - Fixed!
  • libskia.so related FC on OfficeSuite and sync.me (and possibly others)... see below for fix



4.3 mini-FAQ
  • Q) Root doesn't work!
  • A) From a clean build you need to enable root access for Superuser itself. This is different from 4.2.2 in which Superuser by default had root access on a new install. To do this, go to Settings -> Developer options -> Root access. If an app attempts to request root access before Superuser itself has access, it may cause problems with that app in the future where root requests are silently denied.

  • Q) Developer Options? What Developer Options? I don't see that in Settings??!?
  • A) By default, this is conveniently hidden from view... as it does contain settings and options that can (and will) break stuff if you don't know what you're doing. If you require access to this, Settings -> About Phone... Then tap on the Build Number 7 times.

  • Q) Titanium Backup isn't restoring apps!
  • A) Either you haven't enabled root (see above) or you need to update to latest TB

  • Q) QuickOffice, sync.me (insert other app here) FC's, logcat shows libskia.so issue... what do I do?
  • A) Get the libskia.so from here... remount /system as RW, push libskia.so to /system/lib/libskia.so, then set permissions on it to 644... (TIP: use ADB or root explorer of your choice)

  • Q) FM Radio?
  • A) Only solution is "Spirit FM Unlocked"... We don't have code for Samsung's FM Radio framework from Stock ROMs... and their app won't work without it... #blameSamsung

Will the Mali drivers be released by Samsung, as the ROM is a no go without them.

Sorry the ROM is great, just any games freezes. From what I am reading there are different revisions of the S2 and some are more sensitive than others to the drivers. Samsung based ROMS work fine, I guess I am just unlucky.

    Just a general update for the i9100 Slim users...

    1. Build 2.2 *is* coming... testing has just been held up on a couple of devices, which unfortunately has slowed down the release :( It will fix the annoying auto-rotation bug :victory:

    2. SlimKat 4.4 for i9100 progress is coming along nicely.

    zhpxy2gl.in5.png


    Thanks to the work of the Slim team, the guys at omnirom and the CM devs... I managed to cobble together a fairly solid 4.4 build for i9100... Most of the "important stuff"™ (Phone calls, WiFi, BT, browser, messaging, camera) works... I finally managed to get selinux set to permissive, which I think was responsible for a few of the issues I was having... the little graphical glitches on rotation and when taking screenshots are gone... hell, even the libskia issue that generates FC's in Officesuite and/or Sync.me on 4.3 has disappeared!

    However, it doesn't have all the Slim features from 4.3 (no SlimPIE etc) as they have yet to be ported/recoded to fit 4.4 frameworks, and currently, the video recording is broken (it breaks the camera until you reboot), but I think I know how to fix that (found some commits on omni gerrit)... once I've confirmed that the video camera is OK, I'll post up an "unofficial" release...

    Thanks for your continued support and patience...

    Progress... ;)

    There are still a few issues... like sdcards not mounting (hence why it isn't a screenshot, but a blurry pic taken from my N4! :silly:), SELinux on enforcing, WiFi not working... and I suspect about a million other broken things... but at least it boots :victory:

    ps. Friendly reminder... DO NOT ASK FOR ETAs!!
