Ok I am going to make it Abundantly Clear. So there is ZERO I mean ZERO CONFUSION.

What this is NOT -

1. This is not a Weekly. This is not Stable. If you are looking for either, you are in the wrong thread.
2. This is Not a Daily Driver. If you are looking for one, go to SlimKat Thread.
3. This is not Fully Functional Picture Perfect Rom. You do not get to Complain and call names on the thread if you expected anything else.
4. This Build does have bugs. Those that are known to me are listed Bellow.

What this is -

1. This is an Early Alpha Build. To those who don't know, that's prior Stage of a Beta or Weekly Build.
2. Its a Preview of things to come. If you notice, my list of Features is lacking quiet a few of Slim Features.
3. Yes there are bugs. The ones I do know are
   • Root does not Stick. See Notes Bellow.
   • Stock Camera clicks but does not take pictures. When you switch to Video Mode, you'd get error "Unable to Connect to Camera". Afterwards you have to reboot to clear.
   • Some of the 3rd Party Camera Apps work. For Ex. Open Camera, VivaVideo
   • APN Menu does not show any of the APNs for at least Sprint Variant.
   • When connected to WiFi, MMS are delayed. Only seems to affect D2VZW.

NOTES -

1. This is a D2GSM Build. So it is equally applicable to D2ATT as well as D2TMO. So use D2ATT Build unless I specified Otherwise.
   
2. You must Flash SuperSU [STABLE][2015.01.20] SuperSU v2.4.5 as a Zip file along after flashing Rom.
3. If you posted a bug/issue not listed above, without a Logcat, I will ignore it.
4. Unless specified otherwise, do not dirty flash on top of SlimKat or Other Roms. If you did and then complained even with Logcat, I will ignore.

OP Updated. 5.1.1 Build Released.

EDIT - Another Build is up on my AFH. I cleaned up the download folder into 2 sub folders. Let me know if you have issues.

 

[Perseus]

Recents Fixed. But There's some other customizations for QS Tiles & More importantly ability to get rid of the # Symbol is now in Developer Options.
Fixed the issue with Hardware buttons not responding along with other updates.

New Build Up.

I noticed on g+ that the s3 wasnt listed on the weeklies, if it happens will you continue this thread? or list download links, I hope so, Slim rom officials are low maintenance, and the s3 is still a good phone, thanks.

I am and will be continuing. I will have device added there.

Please link me to the Specific Post.

Via your AF link there is no d2tmo build in the 5.1.1 folder.

Yes this go around I didn't build one. You can use the D2ATT build and it will work just fine. Its on my D2TMO at this time.You can use Build.Prop Editor or some other mechanism to change Device Model (ro.product.model)

If you want a D2TMO Specific build, look under the folder Older Builds.

Perseus, you are THE MAN! Switched from sprint to tmo and was thrilled to find this. Running great for me with the exception of bt, but I can deal. I saw you said this device will continue to get updates, is that still the case?

I have a random question with regards to mic setup. I'm using sipdroid + gv for voice service, and I saw a thread saying the mics are reversed unless on a TW rom. I can hear people perfectly, but they have complaints. Can you confirm if this may be my issue?

Link to thread : https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/hangouts-dialer-as-primary-voice-service.173118/

The last 3 posts. Is that last post a potential fix ?

Thanks again for everything. My phone and I would be lost without you. :good:

Yes there would be updates here. I wasn't aware of this issue as you are the first one to bring it up.

You can try the solution suggested, but at first glance seems like Hangout issue or your setup. Not sure. Just making a guess.

Are you aware that under advanced settings of the dialer, you have ability to enter SIP account details ? This can potentially bypass need for Hangout Dialer ?

 

[Dumboguy03]

Yes sir. Using native dialer. Idk why they complain, I can hear them perfectly. I would have thought it would be crap both ways. Will keep messing with it.

Unrelated: hangouts is crushing my battery when not on wifi. Unistalled dialer and now I think it's worse.... Lol

So many downloads and very little chatter. Must be A GREAT build for a beta!

@Perseus

Are you going to be updating this ROM more regularly? Also thank you for compiling a dedicated d2tmo build w/ v0.6. :good:

 

[LighthammerX]

So this build is pretty good unlike the crappy build I was using before out of a need to get lolipop up and running.

My biggest complaint though --- why are we using the old JB recent apps window. Worse yet, why is there no clear all button?

This is driving me mad to the point of installing Xposed just to kind of add in this functionality.

To clear all you have to use the "pinch" gesture in the recent apps section.

Hi so I tried flashing d2tmo 5.1 official and I keep getting stuck on the boot animation. I tried flashing via both CWM and TWRP (following exact instructions for both) and I still got the same result. I'm able to flash the latest stable Kit-Kat ROM without issue. I've waited up to 20 minutes for the boot animation to disappear. Do you have any suggestions?

I will. But due to Time constraints, I can't promise a weekly build. Slim Server will start cranking out Weeklies, jenkins permitting. If so, the need for my builds would be less.

Yeah that's my bad. I would probably post a flashable kernel only build that you can flash on top of this build.
