[ROM][LB/UB][4.1.2] SlimBean 3.1.0

[Olivier]

PREAMBLE
This is SlimBean for locked bootloaders. Just to clarify, I'm not responsible for anything, neither for soft or hardbricked, nor for anything else.
Please, do not post feature requests or bug reports here, use DevDB instead, thanks.
As always, this ROM is not a ZIP-port, it has been compiled from source (see my sources).


WORKING/NOT WORKING
It probably has the same bugs as CM10 for LB.


FEATURES
This ROM is very lightweight (only 113 MB) and it also has very nice additions (see my screenshots).
Please visit the SlimROMs homepage for more information, the special "SlimGAPPs" and much more.


DOWNLOAD
You can get the latest build from here.

And here are 2 patches to address Android OS overdrive:

Framework patch:

http://www21.zippyshare.com/v/7031626/file.html

WIFI-Audio patch:

http://www21.zippyshare.com/v/92695885/file.html

They will make sure your phone sleeps well once you press the power button...

Flash both in recovery: framework first, then clean dalvik cache and reboot. Next do the WIFI and reboot.

Gapps

For those interested in very light Gapps, I am using the attached Gapps... which i had previously downloaded from xda.

OP, @optimumpro, @MrGezz Is there a way that we can have a working FM radio app for CM as we're using stock kernel here?

What's wrong with the original one?

Just noticed that the hardware camera button isn't working on this rom.

I just checked on my ION and it works perfectly for both starting the camera and taking a shot...

You need to remove the first couple of lines from Meta-Inf/com/google/android/update-script where the software calls for LT28h. Because your phone is LT28i, flashing does not proceed...

 

[Olivier]

Can somebody please list all Xperia Ion variants? I can then add them to the updater-script by default.

BTW, if somebody is interested... Here you can find some nice add-ons (untested).

They are LT28h, LT28i and LT28at. But I think it will be best just to remove the first lines and start with ui-print....

 

[derrickdroid]

Is this themed at all? I somewhat prefer roms that are dark.

Sent from my LT28i using xda app-developers app

from your opinion which is the best rom in battery life and performance until now?

I think it is clearly Slimbean, the lightest, but gives you a lot of options including many tweak options (embedded in settings app) and dual pane. It also gives you the largest ram (I had 395 mb on start). All CM based roms sleep well if properly patched.

Original FM app gives error and force closes in CM10 rom by @MrGezz and other releases of djolivier doesn't come with FM app.
Only gap of giving up stock based rom (I'm Aoba black fan of u) is the fm radio unavailability and "call waiting of other party doesn't show when originating the call" issue of CM10. Hoping a good reply.

Build Prop issues on install attempt

Tried to follow @optimumpro method of deleting the buildprop but i realized that even after removing said lines, im not sure how to recompile.

So maybe @djolivier OP can fix the build prop lines in his next update.

Use 7zip to unzip, then noteplus to make changes and save. Then rezip using 7zip again. That's it.

 

[Najuto9tail]

I flashed rom sucesfully, runs smooth, awesome features but recent apps does not work. I try to open a recent app and phone gets frozen. Can it be fixed? I am loving this rom so far.

 

[Olivier]

I have this bug on all of my AOSP(-derived) ROMs for LB... Haven't been able to fix it yet.

 

[optimumpro]

I have no such bug, but I removed a bunch of apps I don't use (anthal radios etc). Also, you should tinker with original settings and launcher settings.
