It doesn't have any volume problem at all :)
And yes it is needed full wipe. It is coming from similar build, however it has some kernel and system tweaks which need the full wipe.
New version gonna be uploaded on Tuesday!
Almost..

Music listening: works fine both with speaker, wired headphones and Bluetooth headsets.

Phone conversation:
- internal speaker and external speaker: volume is almost the same, so there is almost no difference between them, thus external speaker for conversations is useless.

- Bluetooth: whereas one can listen to music via bluetooth, for regular phone calls the volume is zero. This applies for BT headphones and also car speaker systems.

- 3.5mm jack headphones: conversation works well.
However, there is a huge volume difference between phone call and music, so if listening to music with reasonable volume --> incoming call will have too low volume, if one puts the volume to max in conversation, after phone call ends the music volume will blow the ears :D

Some other minor issues:

- Battery usage does not show any applications- only the graph

- Disable boot animation doesn't work (yeah, I know, I'm a jerk ;) )

- Choosing a different wallpaper for lockscreen, shows the homescreen wallpaper along the status bar area. It looks weird/ugly, and I guess it is affected by statusbar transparency settings..


Is it possible to add transparency settings for the whole notification pull-down? Looks like the present settings work only on the status bar itself...

Hilarious, if I choose to disable boot animation it tells me I'm a jerk... but does not comply with my command :p

What's the swagger button on notification bar?

Speaker volume is quite low during phone calls, and it doesn't seems like I can change volume during call?
I am aware of the bootanimation and sound problem, however, there is not much I can do about it because I do not compile from source, I just build it over AOKP build, so when a new version is coming out, expect a new Slimgen2.0 aswell.

What do you mean by Swagger?

What about YouTube HQ video lag that was in AOKP... Is YouTube running smoothly :confused:
Youtube video lag is present as in AOKP rom. I'm trying to fix it by adding custom video drivers but so far, no luck.

Thank you for writing this detail bug report. I'm going to add it in the first post.
As I mentioned before, I am aware of these problems, but as for now, I cannot do anything except to wait for a new AOKP release, then I will make a new SlimGen with the updated 3d drivers, etc.

So that's why it wasn't working for me... Thanks, I didn't knew that... Silly me.
Anyway, I'll try to use different kernels,maybe will look into some kernel source code, however I'm not so good at coding, but will try. Thanks again
