Yes it was, was discussing with the mods if I should take over the old thread or create a new one, so I deleted that one until I had clear instructions, which I just got

So here we are

Yup, unless there is no need to anymore

There's been less and less op top of Slim in them, it's layers and a few goodies mostly from gerrit.

I use wireless chargers extensively (car, home & office) and so I'm quite disappointed in that "missing" feature...
@dankoman My hh is working well at the moment so I might hold fire on 5x 6p and get a Pixel C instead.
Do you think Slim will support it?

Thanks for posting the driver link

...nothing like having to manually reply from a closed thread lmao (thanks @TonyStark )



anyway, yeah we probably will support Pixel C eventually, but we have to wait to see what source looks like. also, we'd require a device maintainer - someone who actually owns the device and is willing to maintain the device trees.

Subscribed, good builds as always. Got my Nexus 6P coming but until then I will still be running my HH on SlimLP.

Well, whenever Google deems me worthy of being allowed to buy my 6p and take my momey, we will meet again

But given Europe tends to come late, I'll consider myself lucky to have one by xmas lol

Hey, in addition to the BT HFP problem I've described in the old thread I also noticed that changing the BT volume isn't always possible. Most of the times the correct slider just wouldn't show up when pressing the volume rocker and if it does, it doesn't change anything.

This has been the case with my clean 0.7 flash and the dirty 0.8 flash I did today. I've posted the information about my radio in the old thread, if that helps.

Thank you for your great work!

I will have to test this somehow, but I don't have a car stereo onto which I can stream music, only calls...

I think Blitzer.de sends simple media files over HFP if that helps. My car picks up an unknown call and outputs the audio over the speakers. When I get a real call, the volume is correct somehow.

Is there any documented reason why stock slim has no global menu customizations?

Edit: Without it I've had difficulty taking screenshots of the quick toggle and notifications panes.

I usually do that using volume down + power button.

Perhaps try holding them for two seconds? It's a default feature since kk: www.howtogeek.com/121133/how-to-take-screenshots-on-android-devices-since-4.0/
