Same problem here with the network. After two times clean install baseband is missing. I tried to set apn but get only a black screen in network settings. Same in phone status. I'll try tomorrow again with a new download. Finish for today.

Because of the "Reboot to recovery" and the other mentioned bugs, this problems happens because anything went wrong during the build-process of the kernel ... This can be caused by GCC Toolchain 4.9 ... If you want to solve it, do this steps:

Add these lines to the local_manifest of Slimkat:

<!-- Slim toolchain gcc and linaro -->
<project path="prebuilt" name="SlimRoms/android_prebuilt" remote="github" revision="kk4.4" />

Then do:

cd prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain

git clone https://android.googlesource.com/pla...m/arm-eabi-4.6

Look in your build/core/tasks/kernel.mk and change the paths of the toolchain for compiling the kernel to the lines with "TARGET_KERNEL_CUSTOM_TOOLCHAIN" and use this lines instead of yours:

ifeq ($(HOST_OS),darwin)

************ARM_CROSS_COMPILE:=CROSS_COMPILE="$(cc ache) $(ANDROID_BUILD_TOP)/prebuilt/darwin-x86/toolchain/$(TARGET_KERNEL_CUSTOM_TOOLCHAIN)/bin/arm-eabi-"

else

************ARM_CROSS_COMPILE:=CROSS_COMPILE="$(cc ache) $(ANDROID_BUILD_TOP)/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/$(TARGET_KERNEL_CUSTOM_TOOLCHAIN)/bin/arm-eabi-"

It should work now ... Hope I could help. First of all check the lines in build/core/tasks/kernel.mk because of the toolchain paths, they cause this issues mainly if I am right.
