Like all my threads, I want to give credit and thank you for those that help me along the way and make these ROMs/MODs and everything I do possible!

Special THANKS to Sean8172 and Sinistertensai for testing for me, as I don't own this device!

- All of Team D.I.R.T and everyone that supports us!

* If you feel that your name should be in the OP for one reason or another, please PM and I'll get you up there if I forgot you



  1. Fully compiled from AOSP source ( source.android.com) with their (Slim Rom team) mods and interesting ones from CM/AOKP.
  2. Feature requests are welcomed as this is an unofficial ROM and I can do what I please with it.
  3. As per the Slim ROM team, no ports based on my ROM zip or their ROM zip at all! Their manifest is updated regularly and they encourage building from source.


Check out the feature list here


Code:
[B][COLOR="red"]- Initial release of Slim Bean[/COLOR][/B]

- Optimized the ROM with Linaro -O3 (please read what Linaro does and all that stuff in the FAQs)
- Updated the hosts for an ad-free experience

- Please do a full complete wipe (everything but your sdcard) before flashing.

- Provide a logcat and/or as much detail as possible or your bug will be ignored.

- Remember the XDA rules! Please be respectful to each other, I do this for free and have NO TIME for the BS!

Q - I flashed the ROM and now I have an issue, what should I do?
A - Don't freak out! Pull a logcat and paste it on to pastebin and provide me a link in the thread to it. Along with the logcat, please provide me with as much information as possible. Things that you would think could help me fix this issue.....i.e what kernel you're running, what happened, what did you prior to the bug/issue.

Q - How do I pull a logcat?
A - Check out this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1726238

Q - Do I have to wipe before flashing??
A - YES, even if you're coming from a previous version of this ROM. By doing a full wipe each time, it not only avoids any issues that come from not wiping BUT if you report an issue, I then know that is a legit problem and not because of lack of wiping.

Q - I see (Insert developer name) has fixed this or has added this feature, are you going to do the same?
A - NO! No disrespect to that developer but I have not and will not keep up with what other developers are doing.

Q - I'm getting "Incompatible" errors in the Google Playstore, what can I do?
A - Don't freak out!! Read this post by spycom773469, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36319242&postcount=59

Q - My home button doesn't seem to work, what can I do?
A - 9/10 times this happens when you flash the wrong GAPPS. This ROM is 4.1.2 not 4.2 so you would need to flash the GAPPS for 4.1.2

If the problem continues, then please pull a logcat and post the url to the logcat so I can troubleshoot this issue further


Q - WHAT IN THE WORLD is Linaro?
A - I could go on and on about what Linaro is and bore the masses with facts and this and that BUT I won't!
Basically, linaro is just improvements done to the kernel and the ROM. These improvements are done by optimizing the GNU compiler collection (GCC) toolchain, the kernel, ARM power management, graphics and multimedia interfaces.

Q - What is Linaro going to do to this ROM?
A - Well it will do a few things to the ROM but one thing it won't do is, it won't increase the performance by 200 percent like you first heard when Linaro came out! It will indeed make things snappier. You will notice apps opening up a bit faster and in some cases, it will make a few of them run smoother. You will also see an increase in benchmarks (useless but fun to show off...lol) compare to a ROM not optimized by linaro by overclocking your device but I would recommend you not do this as this will also cause your battery to drain.

Rom is running very smooth. Facebook contacts sync without 3rd party app. Notification led only works if you set to always on I'm settings. No bugs so far, been running for about 4 hours. Haven't tried sending or receiving mms. Only issue I saw was the dotted circle battery mod shows blank when at 100%. I'd like to have lower auto brightness settings. I think there's somewhere to set it up. Just haven't found it.

Yeah I applied the Facebook contacts sync hack......forgot to add to the OP :) Great find on the dotted circle battery, nobody's reported that yet :good:

Glad you're enjoying the ROM!

Mazda has an LTE???!!!!
No, this is all done blind :p

Could be your network, give it a few minutes! If it still doesn't go then I'll double check the APNs BUT the testers last night were able to sent without a problem so I would imagine is the network.....
