Really like this rom but suffers from lock screen touch issues. About 50% of the time I want to unlock my phone touch doesn't work on lock screen. Xt1032 16gig unlocked and rooted. Coming from another cm11 based rom.

lock issue is very annoying but very nice rom apart from that. Thanks for the update already looking forward to the next one. Thinking of rolling back to previous for now as only had a few niggle with last build.

Mine has the lock screen hang as well. Just a quick double tap on the power button and it seems to free it right up. Other than that, looks to be a good rom, very first one on the phone. I didn't even log into the stock rom when I unpacked it.

1.- Do I need to isntall gapps?
2.- Is the rom already rooted? Do I need to root again.?

Saw this in another thread on XDA for a different phone. Not at home with an available computer or I'd try it, if someone wants to give it a go, should only take a couple min.





4.4.2 Slimkat beta [Unofficial] gchild
To the guy who made the rom in the title.

Sorry i didn't post there it won't let me due to tight user restrictions on these forums, but I fixed the GPS problem people are having with your rom by changing the value LPP_PROFILE = 0 to LPP_PROFILE = 1 in gps.conf located in the zip under /system/etc/gps.conf and have people reinstall the rom.

    ROM updated to latest Slim version, I recommend a clean install because there's a new device tree, enjoy :).

    I've lost root with slimkat, I flashed super su but that didn't work ,what now?

    You sure root isn't disabled under Developer Options? It is disabled by default.
