Very soon I expect to see official support with nightlies from the Slim team. There's a lot of customization that can be done with Slim. I may continue to post custom builds with unique cherry-picks, even once nightlies start.

Feel free to post your own slim builds here too! If you have a dedicated slim builds folder, I'll add the link in this post so it won't get lost.

I thought the new Gerrit was here? Are you not merging that new stuff?

They also have a new Website as well, and you are directing to the old.... new one is slimroms.eu

Thanks. I'll fix the links a bit later when I can do so from a pc.

Thank you for this! I have been waiting so long for Slim again! I will try it out later tonight and report back.

Thanks! Also, check screen off gestures... Mine are not working

Thanks for bringing this, I've been badly missing slim. Everything seems working well but its only been a few minutes. I'm sorry if I missed it but do know if this has layers support?

It does, download layers manager from Play Store

I thought slim had reverted to CM theme manager?

Damn.. it is so much more mature at the moment.

I don't know... I used to prefer the theme engine too but I think layers will end up being way better

I have the same WiFi issue as I did on early 5.1 builds. Wouldn't get past the password.

Try this:
1 - Clean flash ROM
2 - Boot into ROM. Let it be for a minute or two so it can finish cookin'
3 - Reboot into recovery
4 - Flash Gapps
5 - Reboot

I personally recommend this installation method for any AOSP ROM on any device. It's the best way to isolate the source of a whole laundry list of potential problems.

So is that not an issue for anyone else then? Just wanted to check since this was an issue on earlier AOSP 5.1 ROMs (eg building cm12.1 while still in staging) and it popped up again with this after flashing the same exact way I did with cm12.1 which is working. I'll give it another try and report back if it continues to be an issue.

Yes, I am experiencing this also, following the steps of letting ROM boot before flashing anything else. I've had it on other ROMs as well. I will try again when I get back home since my wifi connection at work is always problematic, but I am really excited to try your build!

 

[Keithn]

Didn't think it had anything to do with what I flashed, but I clean flashed only the ROM and it is still not working correctly with passwords on wifi. It will connect if I input the password and then restart. Same issue as pretty much every early 5.1 ROM had. Not exactly sure where the issue is though or how it was fixed. Also gestures aren't working as someone else also said.

WiFi is broken. I can connect by toggling on/off butv that's a pain in the butt. I followed all the steps as OP asks.

Yeah it wouldn't stay on for me either. Clean flash on GPe firmware.

 

[fizbanrapper]

I've only had to toggle WiFi once to get it working. It's annoying when I can't duplicate a bug.

I just uploaded a new build using slimroms kernel source. No kexec hardboot patch on the 5/13 build. Please let me know if it's any better!

Odd I flashed his builds and had absolutely no Wi-Fi issues. I ended up parting ways simply because there was no long press back to kill app option. I used his builds from his afh page. Overall I liked the ROM a lot. The modified trebuchet / slim launcher had a good settings page, though I prefer stock trebuchets ui.
