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 togari
• MultiROM TWRP recovery

@OmarEinea thank you for all the hard work, you've brought a couple lollipop Roms to our device now and have been keeping them up to date. Great job, much appreciated. How is battery life on this? And is the kernel able to make backups or is it like the cyanogenmod recovery?

@OmarEinea is the kernel able to make backups or is it like the cyanogenmod recovery?

SlimLP has TWRP, so yes.

I will try flashing again in a bit, but right now I have slow data on LTE and WiFi which is normally fast. Typical speeds right now are very slow. Recovery doesn't work either. Will edit my post after I flash again

UPDATE: Tried flashing again with the same issues.

 

[golfinggino]

Just flashed this ROM and really liking it - very fast will be daily driver for now thanks for the great ROM

Any chance y'all could look into supporting the GPE edition also? Loved slim on my G2 and Galaxy Nexus.
Thanks!

SlimLP doesn't have recovery yet, you should be able to have recovery through many different ways,
my recommended one is to use MultiROM mode, it's fantastic

SlimLP has TWRP, so yes.

It's true SlimKat had TWRP, but SlimLP has aosp recovery until now, though TWRP should be included in it soon (I hope )

Thanks!

I'll check and see.

I don't see the ROM. How to install?

Well just like any other ROM (in addition to flashing SuperSU)
http://slimroms.net/index.php/installation

so just after flashing GAPPS, flash SuperSU and you'll be good to go.

Tried to use Multirom TWRP to F2FS format and clean install but it doesnt work. So convert back to ext4 and clean installed. Worked well but couldn't recognise my 64GB card which is exFaT formatted. So going to convert to FAT32 before trying again.

Works fast and furious. So will be using as daily for now.

Thank you Omar... you and the rest of the devs have been fast and furious getting LP roms out for us.

How to enter the recovery? I just can't manage how to do that.

How to enter the recovery? I just can't manage how to do that.

Hi and i had the problem with recovery for me the most easy way is to enter dual recovery with flashtool and 108_DualRec_Jackie099.img kernel and simply Hot boot the kernel .Its not permanent recovery everytime you need you have to use flashtool and the hot boot kernel.I can make a video if you want.

 

[ivrsn_des]

really fast and extremely easy to set up.
this runs smoother and faster than the GPE port.
face smart-lock is extremely useful!

Viper4Android works ? Thx BTW.

SlimLP doesn't have recovery yet, so I recommend you to install the TWRP recovery from MultiROM through fastboot in /recovery partition,
or use the whole MultiROM mode as it's brilliant and very useful
this way you'll have recovery out side of the ROM and you'll be able to update and do everything without losing the recovery.

Omar.

Thank you! MultiROM is actually very cool and solved my problem.

Omar,

Would you have any idea why formatting data and cache to f2fs would cause the ROM to boot endlessly after the kernel boot up?

Meaning the booting continues at the SlimLP boot animation for a long time. I tried doing it by converting to f2fs after a clean install with both data and cache as ext4 initially and also formatting to f2fs before doing a clean install. Both just gets stuck at the booting animation. It just keeps running

 

[golfinggino]

I am also running this rom with multirom and it is great, with more features be added later like dark slim, etc. ?

Also the battery life is quite good as well, getting about 5 hours sot all lte no wifi with location on and syncing 5 email accounts
