You can d/l the Slim Wallpaper chooser in the Playstore but they don't give a very big choice.

You browse this site.

Failed! installing from ext sd card on t310 with twrp 2.6. downloading again, maybe a corrupt file.

EDIT: Downloaded again and this time tried to install from internal SD - still failed! Followed instructions to the tee. Not sure what's wrong. After it fails, it bootloops in recovery; i have to restore a nandroid to get the tab back..any one else?

Came from another ROM and, using philz, had no issues installing.
Quick ROM and I definately like it. However, my external card
doesnt mount.
Its a 64gb but not sure if I formatted it exfat or fat32.
Recovery recognizes it without a problem.
Assuming that is the issue and another kernel might help.
Any suggestions or anyone have the same issue?

Thanks all and cant wait to get this ROM setup.

EDIT: tried other kernels with no luck. saw on the omni thread that this
doesnt have exfat support. ill copy everything to another computer
and reformat the card to fat32. that should solve it. Love Slimkat
so far....thanks all.

Philz recovery did it - Slim is up and running! :good: Time to play. I'm going to have to find out if i can install touchwiz though.

Thanks very much DEV.

I have had my T-310 about two weeks. I know it's "different strokes for different folks", but I have tried every ROM available for my device and IMO this is the "best of the best"!!! Great work!!!!!

Something I have been missing is a Theme Manager. Found one that works. Using MrDsl's Mixer.

I said touchwiz cause that's what I'm used to but it can be any launcher that has bigger icons. I use the tab in the car and nova launcher's little bitty icon's ain't goin' cut it.

Other than my personal taste disliking the launcher, the ROM is perfect so far.

Got ya. You can increase icon size in Nova. Im not sure if thats only offered with Nova Prime or not.
