So is this rom tied into @DAddYE's version of SlimKat at all or no?

so this is like the official one from the slimroms team but still the unstable release?

 

[prbassplayer]

It's actually been a daily driver for me most of this week. As I said on second post I won't take it official after stable. Problem is I need to merge in a great deal in to native and av and for the sake of stability, and our sanity, waiting till after so that other devices don't break so close to stable

Any known bugs? Did u use the cm tree build by kali?

Sent from my Xperia Z1 using Tapatalk

 

[prbassplayer]

Yes based on kali-'s tree and kernel. As for bugs you tell me, besides some funky hardware acceleration on videos (doesn't always happen)

So. No hw overlay fix by kali implemented in the rom yet? If it does im gonna flash it and give it a try

[prbassplayer]

Fix? It's using a new kernel if that's what you mean. Flash it and you tell me. Like I said it's been my dad for most of the week. I need to have a bigger test pool than just my device

Adding Language to Latin IME

ROM is working just fine on my device

Though there is a snall thing that bugs me. Is there a way to add languages to LatinIME, If I install the CM one I got Dutch, but then I don't get the black theme when I switch to darkslim, or whatever its called

If I put the dict files from the CM one that are in res/raw into the Slim one, doesnt work either, am I missing a step? love to add dutch to that keyboard, thats the only thing really from me using slim to the max

Thanks in advance

Finally!!

I'll give a try!! At this point if it is stable like mine (I saw through gerrit/sources that you're a little behind CM-sony and few things still need to be reviewed) I'll ask to @mods to close my thread so you guys can work better with the community.

Thanks a lot, was a pleasure to introduce this rom for Z1's users!

 

[prbassplayer]

Not behind at all, I just don't merge right away lol. This build I have here had a lot of stuff from Gerrit

When I use non stock keyboard like swype, the layout gets really tiny. I know this because of the system DPI being 370. I can probably fix it with xposed but is there another way around this?

Besides this, the ROM has been working great

[prbassplayer]

You can bump up the dpi in build.prop. Afaik that's only thing you can do.

Ok I fixed the keyboard height and small widgets with nova by changing the dpi to 360. But I think I found a bug with the date
