​

About " Slim is Dead "


I put this Posting in the OP and change the Thread Titel so all can read it and i hope this stops the asking and the Questions.

We read in the last weeks many times questions, statements, about SlimRoms when it goes on or is Slim Dead.

To clear it.

We write in the last weeks many Times taht we have a lot of changes done, Team Intern , Personnel, software, hardware. These are all things that need time / have needed. Completed about 90% of the process.


People ask why nothing happens in the Gerrit.


We changed the whole system and you can find the Gerrit now here


you can see, we working hard on 5.1


People ask what happens with the Slim Homepage

You can finde the new HP here


please note, the HP is under construction and not finished.


You can be sure , SlimRoms is anything but just not dead,, many things need a lot of time, I would like and can no release date call for the next update, but I can say that it will not be long.

In this sense,
Greetings

Tylog ( Team SlimRoms )



SlimRoms is a custom android operating system. The main goal is to offer users a slimmed down but still feature rich alternative to other android operating systems.
The entire SlimTeam work together to bring you this tailor-made beauty straight from Android Open Source Project (AOSP) source code.
All of the sources can be publicly viewed through GitHub and you can stop by the public Gerrit to submit patches of any type.


Please Note

A few words about the current standing. It was Christmas , New-Year , Holiday Time. After this we had to do in the last few weeks some organizational, server relocation, team structures, and more. Most of it is done. Pending Weekly's are started I will post a new build Sunday evening an Official Build upload. Sunday 01-February. I Post the DL Link in the Thread and here in the OP.
Let's hope we can start Weeklys in 1-2 Weeks. Thats the plan.
Regards , Tylog

Mini FAQ 4.4.x




Q) How can i change the DPI and whats the Stock Default DPI
A) DPI Settings coming soon , you can use textdroider_dpi from Playstore https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.texdroider.texdroider_dpi&hl=de , this works fine. Default Stock DPI is 480.

Q) A few Settings like Disable Blacklight Keys and more are missing .
A) All features you know from 4.3 will come back from time to time , for now you can use Xposed in combination with Gravity Box.
Gravity Box : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2554049 / Xposed : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401

Q) Is ART stable to use ?
A)Test it for your self , remember that ART is in an early phase

Q) Can i restore my apps with Titanium Backup coming from another Rom ?
A) Yes you can , remember " Don't restore System Apps "

Q) What for a Recovery is recommanded ?
A) I use TWRP 2.6.3.1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2468187 and it works fine , you can use the official CWM Recovery too.


Q ) There is no Theme Chooser in the Rom ?
A ) For now we use no Theme Chooser, you can use HK ThemeManager, it does the same and more

:good:seems more stable than CM11 godd job (mix between god job and good job ... or typo)

 

[tylok]

so far everything seems fine (except for the auto-rotation)
I was able to install all my apps, with no compatibility issues so far.
the camera is working as well as the GPS fix.
The real dark slim is missing but I guess that's something for the stable build.
I must say I like it, I see my trust (and by that I mean donation:silly was well placed-
keep up the good work!
I guess I never buy another device which is not supported by SLIM :victory:

 

[tanoxxx]

Thanks @Tylog :good::laugh:

If you need it don't flash the KK beta. Read the changelog, it's broken (that means no fix ATM)

 

[tobiasth]

agree auto rotation totally not working
missing screenshot button in power menu
missing themes

i had two times no pin request window after a restart ... don't know why

ok, no problem :good:
i ask only if there is some workaroud to fix it, but if there isnt i will wait for a fix to try the Rom it :good:
Again Thanks :good:

 

[Tylog]

Theme Chooser is at the moment not include. For now you can use xposed/xthemer if you need themes

Screenshots use Power + Louder Down or Gravity

The gummy ROM has themes, if you want them you can install that.

But I use the standard player an VLC...

Bugs

Add Screenshot and customise Power Menu:
Settings > Navigation > Global Menu

So far bugs of KitKat:
1. In call proximity sensor not working. Neither is the mute button.
2. If phone battery dies and you put phone onto charge, it will automatically boot up straight into slimkat (skips gs4 screen?) and touchscreen will be unresponsive (all capacitive and hardware buttons work though). Restarting with charger plugged in does not solve, need to reboot again without charger then all is okay!
3. NFC is greyed out and enabled (power drain?) --> Add NFC to quicktiles, click it once, then reboot. NFC wont be greyed! (thx tylog)
4. Hotspot is not working (devices do not see the SSID) --> Tethering works
5. Front camera preview appears to be stretched horizontally, but photo is fine
6. S/W Decoder on MX Player FCs --> Use H/W Decoding
7. Network Mode and LTE quick tiles do nothing

Whatsapp+ has incorrect data and time notification
Hangouts is laggy and slow and doesn't appear to send sms on time --> switched to Messaging

No themes
No Dark Slim

 

[Hoschi]

How can i change the DPI ?

 

[Bejda]

Auto-rotation is only partially not working in my side, i would prefer say that it works with almost no issue.
Only thing is that it doesn't work anymore but for a very little time after I tick/untick it under Settings/Display but works apparently perfect rest of the time.
Can't be only me huh?

Edit:Well a little more bugy than I thought finally, doesn't work anymore after some times (since screen-off it seems) and then works again after some times etc..
