Bugs:

- Minor bugs, same as CM, Mainly:

• Some issues while enabling Adaptive brightness

Misc stuff:

• Old Screenshots or Newer ScreenShots - (from my Z1 Compact)
• Bugtracker - to report your bugs

SlimLP kernel contains some nice features like:

• Intellidemand Governor
• SIO & FIOPS I/Os
• Sound Control
• MultiROM Support

THE ROM DOESN'T CONTAIN RECOVERY!
Though you can get yourself one by flashing one of these:

• Fota TWRP 2.8.x.x recovery for amami
• MultiROM TWRP recovery

Bugs:

- Minor bugs, same as CM, Mainly:

• Video recording or playing isn't working
• Some issues while enabling Adaptive brightness

Seriously? It should be major bug as minimum.

Seriously? It should be major bug as minimum.

If you follow bugs in LP from the start you'd know these are minor
Recent bugs in LP were WiFi, Mic and Camera
these weren't working, and these were the major bugs, so now all of them are solved,
and we're left with these less important bugs

Regards,
Omar.

This rom is very fast and smooth, and battery life is better than cm12! keep it up! :good:

Hi Omar,

the ROM works fine, thank you (only the build-in SMS app crashes, now i use another app), but could you give me a link to a working TWRP?
I'm now on 2.8.4.1 but I can't mount or read File-System, the Recovery says: no OS installed and so on.

So I'm now very uncertain about the correct TWRP-Version.

You can use this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/fota-twrp-recovery-amami-t2909719
or the one from MultiROM, both are working great.

thanks a lot, Omar,

now I've got an working recovery, but one more Question:
change Filesystem to f2fs is in this combination of ROM and Recovery not working?
I wanted to play around a little bit, so this is not important.

[meesner]

now I tried the TWRP from the Multirom-thread, there I've got the button for f2fs.

Do you know, how long the next boot after formatting cache with f2fs needs? I was waiting about 30 min with running boot-animation and nothing happened, so I made a reset, boot into recovery and go back to ext4, but device runs animation, nothing else.

thanks for an info

Awesome!
Downloading

Edit: Runs nice and smooth!
Option to display the battery as percentage would be nice! Can be added manually I know but would be nice to come with stock.

switched from your RR Rom to SlimLP for my z1c, since i have SlimSaber from @fusionjack as a daily driver. seems all pretty alpha but very very familiar, stable and smooth. all works fine so far, video recording working fine, musicplayer was missing from the rom, RRO is integrated, layers working brilliant as on my bacon. using the same layers as on my bacon, same goes for viper4android working also great.
many many features are missing from what you already have ported from the RR roms, but i guess they will come cm12 amami nightlies are out there, so it would be nice, if you could port some old features like HW button remapping, quick settings tile reorienting, network indicator and percentage for the battery, kill app button (would be very important at first i guess) to the Slim rom. ask @fusionjack for the commits/code/features, i guess he would be pretty happy to share it makes it a bit easier to get along as fast as a single person can get
for the bacon, besides temasek as a cm12 using engine, i prefer slimLP for the RRO and layers. much better to get a style working.

thx for the amazing port of slimLP for the lil brother of my bacon, my amami <3. keep up the good work. good to see, that someone cares about the little things in life xD

best regards
Mike

Many thanks for this great work. I have only 2 questions. Hope you can help me.
1) Is it possible with this ROM to install apps on the external SD? In the past I had SlimROMS and was able to move apps to a SD card.
2) Is the camera working with this great ROM?
many thanks for the feedback
