Please note these builds are under heavy development!

Known issues
  • Headset in-call mic uses phone
  • HDR Camera mode may need improvements, but should at least work

4.3 mini-FAQ
  • Q) I'm stuck at the boot logo and/or a boot loop!
  • A) Make sure you use TWRP 2.5.0.2. TWRP 2.6 and other recoveries can cause boot loops & hangups

  • 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) Titanium Backup isn't restoring apps!
  • A) Change the backups folder to storage/emulated/legacy.

If you use Philz recovery 5.10.0 you must upgrade to 5.11.0 or you will lose radio!

Since the SGS4 is so new, development is happening very rapidly. This should be taken into consideration when flashing any 4.3 AOSP-based builds on the device. Known issues will be listed here.

TB app restore 4.2 2 - 4.3


If you come from a 4.2.2 Rom open tb , press left softkey and go to tb settings , backup folder , press search the complete phone and choose the one that called legacy.
Activate this one, let's start tb new and restore your apps :)

Could depends on the recovery you used to flash the rom.
If it's Philz one it must be latest 5.11.0 version.
Thanks... Will try that...

Edit: changed Philz from 5.10.0 to 5.11.0... Now I have boot image, sim unlock and signal... Thanks..

It's one of the best Roms in the Android world :) I use it the most time on all my galaxy and nexus phones.

I test and flash many Roms ,I like to test and see what other roms do , but as main Rom I ever come back to slim.

It's good to see we have now official weeklys for the S4 :)

One time Slimbean , ever Slimbean
