April 7. New release, Slim 0.18.

1. Accidental f/c of apps, such as browser, gallery and some others has been fixed. Nothing f/c anymore. The interface is fast and smooth. As a matter of fact, this is the fastest among the ones I have tried. Do and experiment. If you are on DU or Lineage, press virtual button for recents and then back to virtual button for home. Do it several times: in other roms, there is a delay. In this rom, the transition is instantaneous. The same is if you want to bring up phone dialer: no delay on this rom.

2. The rom has an interface for enabling/disabling sim cards

3. Recents: some people complained they didn't like Slim recents. If you want vanilla android recents, just disable Slim recents in settings

Plus other improvements...

Latest sources plus
1. Zen Decision Hotplug
2. Intelithermal management
3. Magisk included and incorporated in settings
4. Substratum in settings - will show up, once installed
5. Vibration adjustment in kernel (you need KernelAdiutor for that)
6. Option to disable USB access (no access, no on lockscreen and yes to all
7. Option to disable/enable access to clipboard - off by default, so, if you want to copy/paste, enable it in Settings/Security

Remember, you need Afwall to have the internet

Hello, Z2 plus users!

I am the creator of Jaguar rom for Sony Xperia Z1/Z1c/Z2/Z3/Z3c, which is quite popular. Recently, I have switched to Zuk Z2 and here is my first presentation for this device: Unofficial Slimrom with custom 3.18 kernel.

Everyone knows Slimroms, so I won't be describing much. It is based on AOSP and includes some special Slim features, which everyone knows.

Kernel is a Zuk 3.18 kernel with heavy modifications, including my own taken from Jaguar:

1. Implementation of some features from Grsecurity
2. Yama security enabled
3. Mixed hardware and software random number generation
4. Sleep issue has been completely resolved


Other features that are not in Slim

Magisk is included with open source Superuser, credit to topjohnwu and phhusson


Credit: Slimroms, Davidevinavil for initial device tree and vendor files

Instructions: Keep in mind that flashing this rom will take about 1.5 min longer, because it is zipped the Omni way, i.e., no dat files, but rather the full system structure..

1. Obviously, unlocked bootloader and TWRP installed
2. In TWRP wipe /system/data/cache/dalvik-art
3. Flash the rom and reboot


IMPORTANT: this rom has a script that runs on early boot that cuts the internet for both data and wifi to prevent leaking. To have the Internet you have 2 options:

1. Install Afwall, set it up, allow access to apps you want to connect (or all, if you don't care), enable Afwall and you'll have the internet;

2. If you don't care that all your apps will be connecting to the Internet all the time wasting battery and leaking data, use any root explorer, go to /system/etc and delete crashdod.sh file. Reboot.. Or you can do this before flashing: unzip the rom, delete the same file (crashdod.sh), rezip and flash...

Issues: if you find any and want them to be addressed, submit a logcat. Without logcat I won't bother to fix...

Check this thread for Jaguar: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z1/orig-development/rom-aosp-jaguar-lp-5-1-1-r13-official-t3188925

Camera: I haven't touched anything, so this is Slim's Camera2. And it works fine: video doesn't stop after 30 seconds unlike on other roms...

Too bad . Wlan does not work in Germany
:crying:
Actually, you were right. I forgot to mention (and I have already updated the OP), that the rom has a script running on early boot that cuts the internet to prevent data leaks. You have 2 options, depending on what you want, described in the OP...

The best camera for this and other roms is Open Camera. I had stock camera for about 2 days and I didn't notice any difference between stock and AOSP, especially now, when video recording no longer stops after 30 seconds...

Nice rom. Smooth and minimal. Haven't encountered any bug in my usecase. Will keep an eye on the development as slim has always been one of the favorite roms for me. Also, a different take on kernel and features is nice to see. Good job!

Everything is smooth because hardware overlays are disabled by default in framework.

By the way, Jaguar N for Zuk Z2plus is almost done. In addition to other features, you will have alucard, darkness, and nightmare governors. You will also have Zen decision hotplug, as well as vibration sensitivity adjustment. Also, slim recents and memory ram bar; a switch to disable/enable clipboard access; hardened bionic with runtime permissions set to read only, so that third party apps can't manipulate android...
