Surprisingly no issues with the dialer at all! And in .78 I had the issue of boot-loop and that's gone as well. I'm going to use this rom for a while.

one question: How do you mount microSD card? I seem to not be able to access it with this time.

I can't seem to play videos on the latest build. This affects the native and 3rd party players as well as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
Bluetooth media streaming has an audio issue where the audio sounds like an off frequency radio station after touching the screen or the volume increases after a notification ringtone is played.
Thanks for your TIME and HARD WORK. Device is a Sprint Note 3

I'm curious, does this rom require NH7 firmware?

Amazing Rom for an Alpha build. I've been running it as a daily for a little over a week now and it works for everything that I actually need to use on a daily bases. The only bugs/problems I'm having is with Bluetooth, music, and video. I just got the Moto 360 today and it seems to be working fine but if I go out of range from my phone it can't reconnect and then bluetooth bugs and force closes and I have to restart the phone. With music, it'll connect to bluetooth and when i press play on the music it plays for a split second and then the audio turns off but the song is still going. The other problems, videos and music. Spotify and Pandora work fine but when I open Google Music it just says 'Music Playback Error'. And last are videos. Videos on Youtube, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and Snapchat don't load or won't play and Snapchat ends up force closing after 10 seconds.

UPDATE: When LP weeklies start HLTE shall be included, as long as no major bugs suddenly appear. Ive been real busy lately with real life, well I wouldnt call it lately, its been 2 years since Ive had less than a 6 day work week. Anyway, Ive been firing up the compiler and getting the HLTE family of devices primed up for weeklies. hltevzw and hlteusc are to be dropped from the supported list. hltevzw (verizon) has a locked bootloader and the ROM only works for dev edition device. as for hlteusc, well its usc, lmao. not to bash the usc guys, but downloads are next to none, nuff said.

Attention crackflashers!!! Can anyone point me to a AOSP Lollipop ROM that allows access to APNs via settings > more > mobile networks > access point names ?

for those who dont know I have a account @AndroidFileHost LINK and test builds can be found there from time to time. These builds are NOT guaranteed to boot, so if you choose to flash....make a backup :p

Hey guys/girls my apologies we missed the first weekly. I will post some builds tomorrow morning and we will make next weekly. nothing is keeping it from becoming part if the list, only my own forgetfulness of cleaning up dependencies :p

okay some issues that I have had....full clean flash and even did deep clean flash....phone does not see sd card even if i take out and put back in....now i just got this card and double checked, it wasnt the sd card........and quick question is i love launcher...but i love to run without the launcher bar. Other roms have option to remove...could this be added. I like toggle apps and open screen? Everything else runs smooth and if not will get back to ya

I hope this device hasn't entered development hell. No status for three months? If the meat of this thread is located somewhere else, please advise!

I absolutely LOVE SlimKat. I'm still on Build 6, as I couldn't stand the launcher in the newer builds. I have always had issues with random reboots and issues with lockups and reboots after pressing the Back or Home keys, but I've learned to deal with it and can tell when it's coming on by some graphical glitches that show up. Other than that it's rock solid, doesn't eat battery, and has been snappy.

I tried the SlimLP release above while still on the NAB firmware, but didn't have any cellular connection (probably due to the modem), so I had to revert back to SlimKat. I just updated from NAB to OC5 two days ago and was hoping I'd find a sweet version of SlimLP to flash...but sadly, no.

I also tried the official OC5 firmware and 5.0 update from Sammy, but still couldn't handle how huge everything is and how bright and colorful it all is. I like my phone to be black and white (or grey). Matches my black and white case and white phone. It also felt sluggish with all the animations, even after scaling them to 0.5x in DevOptions.

Thanks for the greatness of SlimKat, if this build never gets off the ground!
