Thanks RobbieL811. Installed last published - stuck on boot animation installing also GApps ("zero" version), everything fine without GApps (installed lately from PlayStore). Using latest touch CWM.

I'll publish my consideration after some days of using your ROM, hoping to be helpful in. Thanks for your work - I was waiting for a Slim , coming from SlimKAT.

Falsh problem with GApps

UPDATE: it seems there's a problem with Google Apps. Two different cases, both involving GApps.

1) Flashed ROM then GApps - stuck at boot animation (flashed clean) for 30mins+

2) Flashed ROM only - everything worked fine, reboot ok - then installed GApps from Google Play Store (G+, Voice, Now, GMail, Text to speech) not using the linked zip, and at next reboot got again stuck at booting animation for 30mins+. As test, I flashed dirty Euphoria over SlimLP (no changes to installed apps), and booted good (other than error in android.phone app, but I expected some errors due to the dirty flash).

94+ hours of uptime on the latest build (which I dirty flashed), and all is good. In fact, by now on previous builds my touchscreen would get erratic, the same way as was common for many users when official KK dropped.

One question: before I would swipe up from the dock's center button (default apps button) to launch a search. Where did this go? It's disappeared as a default, but I can't find it in the settings menu

Oh sorry i didn't look at the date. I tried both gapps packages (mini & zero) from your AFH folder. Both end in a loop



Edit: i tried some other gapps. All end in a bootloop.

Rom without gapps= working
Rom with gapps= bootloop

I need some time to work on it. I got a new server and it seems that it's IP is banned by Google. I am gonna try to make some calls on Monday to try to get it straightened out. No Android work until then.

I have regretfully walked away from Slim. I face it, and effectively it's dead, despite assurances. It was the nicest ROM I used, but here we are still looking at the occasional alpha, while M is active already.

So long Slim. Thanks to the devs for all the hard work.
