Anyone try the FaceLock yet?
It was working when I was on the Epic Modem......I decided to switch over to the NS4G modem......and now it doesn't work......
No biggie really, just thought I'd throw it out there. Strikes me as odd the modem would have some kind of a direct dealing with the FaceLock...
Oh....and yes the NS4G works perfect on 4.0 :D
Thanx again to all the awesome Devs :good::good::good:

1) I had the ROM fresh, i.e. I hadn't touched anything after I boot and quick toogle tiles doesn't appear when I press the toggle button in notif drawer. And of course, lockscreen settings isn't touched at all, too. I'm not into too much customizations.
2) I mean, @didhiy's changed the "Galaxy S / CyanogenMod" 2nd boot screen to a (maybe) personally (but very badly, seriously) done picture mix. Check it out yourself. Not a big deal to me, as I already hate Voodoo and will flash a kernel from the latest CM nightly the instant I detect Voodoo Color's existence. That will get rid of the pic. But for you Voodoo / NS4G lovers, I still want to shout out to @didhiy to revert the change. Maybe you can do it.

2nd boot screen is PRIOR to the bootanimation.zip I can typically replace with Root Explorer or ROM Toolbox. It's in the kernel.
On normal CM builds it says:
=====================
=======GALAXY S=======
=====Cyanogen(mod)=====
=====================

And same thing goes for @didhiy's kernel as of 0401. But this time in the latest kernel there goes a poorly PSed picture. I don't see why... :)

1) For the quick toggle tiles go to System Settings > Interface > Notification Drawer > Quick Settings Panel and make sure it is set to "Enabled." Also under the "Quick Settings Panel" is many options to customize how it works such as Quick Pulldown, Quick Pulldown Without Notifications and Quick Settings Style. For the Lockscreen settings go into System Settings > Interface > Lock Screen and under "Background" change it to "Color Fill" or a "Custom Image" of your choice. Please give this a try and report back if you have time. Your feedback is much appreciated.

2) That second boot screen isn't Didhiy's fault/doing. I put that in myself because I saw Pacman had it, I liked it so I pulled it and boot it into Slim 4. When I tested myself it booted fine 3 times in a row with no problems/hiccups. There is no voodoo color in this rom or kernel because I myself have had bad experience with it.

If you could give this rom another chance doing what I stated above and remove the bootanimation I'd appreciate it.

You are correct, the modem wouldn't effect the Facelock feature. My guess is the ns4g kernel is the culprit. The Epic modem kernel, that I put into this ROM, would have had to be replaced with a ns4g compatible kernel in order for the ns4g modem to work. By no means am I bashing the ns4g kernel you flashed (I know the amount of work it takes to create this stuff lol) I'm just stating what I think is the culprit.

I can confirm this after now trying it and you are correct. I will look into it.

Edit: Try downloading Google Search from the Play Store then it should work.

Edit 2: I just tested it and it looks like the hardware Search button all the way to the right does not work. As a temporary workaround you can add a Google Now widget/shortcut to the home screen.

Um, okay, I'll give it another shot today. With so many similarly feature'd 4.2.x ROMs to choose from, I have to choose really hard and let's see if Slim can be a nice competitor :D

I just installed this ROM in my moms phone and when we try to make a call it says to turn off airplane mode.. But airplane mode is turned off.. I'm wondering if it has the wrong radio installed.. I just came from the pacman rom..

Are you on an Epic radio or ns4g radio? Did you wipe cache, dalvik cache, data and system before flashing Slim?

Did you flash the swap2nexus modem zip and a ns4g radio compatible kernel?

If you're on ns4g radio coming from another Rom here is the proper procedure:

1) Reboot to recovery and make a backup
2) Wipe cache, dalvik cache, data, and system
3) Flash Slim Rom http://d-h.st/9II
4) Flash Slim Gapps 4.2.2 Buld 4 http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/all/viewcategory/24-addons/downloads/all
5) Flash Swap2nexusmodem.zip http://goo.im/devs/effsi/Misc/Swap2NexusMdm.zip
6) Flash ns4g kernel http://goo.im/devs/didhiy/sph-d700_cm-10.1/nitest-jb42_nr-twrp-0418.zip

Bye bye super nexus that was a one time thing. It doesn't deserve an update what magic could Google do that fast. Custom ROMs do a lot more work.

    well i would love to see larger support
    Click to expand...

    could you clarify on that for me? maybe it's just late but what is the larger support you'd like to see?

    if by support you mean grabbing you the link : http://bit.ly/12OCpGI

    also with the texas given instructions about getting the modem going on this rom with my script, is there any reason not to just link to the detailed post I made about applying the swap? rather than having like 10 different sets of instructions at some point it could be nice to point everyone to one post, and give feedback on how to clarify the post to help others later on. the whole 10 sets of different instructions and different files didn't help the modem swapping in the past. but that's just my opinion. it would also be nice to get some thanks for the work. there's a healthy amount of downloads and a total of 4 thanks.

    some more fun information : Original Pacman 153mb, 1st Pac(man)k 148mb, Original Slimbean 124mb, Bulimic Pac(man)k 104mb, 1st SlimK 93mb
    friendly reminder : all my stuff is hosted on goo.im and can be found through goomanager also (including changelogs as of recent times). all my roms come with goomanager (or should). there are no official threads for my stuff as it's for personal use only, the official roms are the ones with the dedicated threads. If you install my rom, leave goomanager on it and you will be notified of updates. no thread to follow or anything like that so it's fairly simple to stay up to date.

    ps thank you unjustified this is better than I remember it being. nicely done and await future updates. xboxfanj is right about codefirex running pretty beastly also :)

    Uses the kernel from bbelos 0318 build since when I compiled I some how included a kernel with twrp which didn't work right and made me have to odin. probably some small errors here and there since I rushed this out. Data seems fine, haven't tested mms or anything much yet

    I tried to upload to goo.im but can't seem to login my ftp?

    Edit : data died at some point, replaced with my edited apn file from my cm builds and it kicked back in. Hardware keyboard arrows are mixed up, some stock files were also removed. When I get home in 8 hours ill reupload one with the apn file baked in assuming I don't run in to any other glaring bugs while running this today at work.

    If I power down then reboot, it freezes on start up animation. I have to pull battery, go into TWRP and wipe cache and dalvik. Then reboot again. Boots up fine after that.

    What screen does it freeze on, the bootanimation?
