Anyway to get the ICS tablet status bar for the bottom instead of the phone version always on the top? I just like the look of it and the added functions.
[Vibrant Android Development] krarvind:
3.9 Released. I will say this, read the changelog and FAQ, before posting questions. If you find ppl posting without reading, just direct them to them the changelog page, don't give them the answer, its a few lines not that hard.

You need to d/l and flash Base, Device essentials and Slim Gapps. From next time on you just need to d/l base and device essentials as long as you don't lose Slim Gapps or i don't change it. Happy Friday Everyone!

NOTE: Read the changelog below carefully and the FAQ before posting questions .

All Devices:

Apollo ( CM9) music compiled from sources - thanks cm team

Updated germant translations for DeskClock - thanks Basian Mile

Reduce processing in WebCore thread while scrolling and zooming based on this

External Webkit changes based on this, this and this.

Hide storage option in camera for devices that don't have external storage based on this

Don't try to create an ad-hoc network when no wireless network is available based on this

SlimPapers.apk with a couple of wallpapers, nothing fancy. Will put it in OTA app for those who want to use it. - thanks jeffyca at rootz for slimlogo wallpaper

CM9 Quiet Hours

New boot animation - thanks jeffyca at rootz

Basic gapps included in base is pulled and made a separate flashable zip, reason is two fold,

make google happy as they prefer this route and

they don't change often, so why bloat the base unnecessarily.

Whatever was in UpdateMe ( GenieWidget etc etc), Apps, Stays there,

Make sure to flash slim_gapps along with base and essentials to get working multi dpi playstore, gmail, talk, video chat, email and exchange. If you flash another gapps, you are on your own, don't complain apps are not compatible if you are not on slim gapps. This is the way moving forward, you can cry about if you want

Base is now 44 MB

Galaxy Nexus ( Maguro, Toro & Toroplus)

Can't wait to get my itching fingers on this.

Thanks! So far it's one of the best Rom if not the greatest!
[Vibrant Android Development] iwillkillyou:
Thanks for the update, downloading it now
[Vibrant Android Development] tripleintegral:
@krarvind Great work man. I've tried a lot of ROMs but Slim really does stand out. If not for developers like you, a lot of people(who are understandably frustrated with T Mobile for not releasing 2.3/source) would have long abandoned the device. Thanks for making such a great ROM and keep up the good work.

I did have a quick question. Do I flash Gapps(after base + essentials) even if I'm upgrading from 3.8 to 3.9?

Edit: Never mind, I did flash Base + essentials + gapps and everything seems to be working well. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] jonen:
not sure if its just me but a fresh install doesn't seem to be restoring my apps. unless im confusing google backup transport with something else, there seems to be an issue somewhere. hasn't worked since 3.7

also, do the vibrant essentials change per release of the base? the boot animation with the g & 4.0.3 bugs me to death since slim is on 4.0.4 now. yes, this is personal preference and can be fixed by flashing a different kernel but i just thought i'd ask to set the record straight
[Vibrant Android Development] gunks:
So if we wanted to install a black (inverted) messaging app where would we get it? Doesn't seem to be in the Update app.
[Vibrant Android Development] prbassplayer:
Essentials change per release. Kernel boot image has not.
[Vibrant Android Development] mohamobo:
v3.9 gps dead after deep sleep is back but v3.7 gps work after deep sleep.
[Vibrant Android Development] ktorres1120:
Are there any themes available for this? I tried looking in the ROM info but couldn't find it.
[Vibrant Android Development] zul8er:
+1. Tried one when the feature first showed but ended in a boot loop like the warning stated.
[Vibrant Android Development] Scroggin_Dazs:
Any of the aokp themes from the market should work with this rom. At least they do for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] ktorres1120:
Thank you! Confirmed that they do work. Just follow the directions and apply the default them first, then the new theme and reboot.
[Vibrant Android Development] prbassplayer:
Cm9/AOKP theme engine themes should work. They do for my i897 and the i9k
[Vibrant Android Development] VeryCoolAlan:
I like this ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] VeryCoolAlan:
64MB! G1 ROM or what!!!?
[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
Paint me truly satisfied with this ROM. For long months I've been watching the ICS scene in this community and this is the one that convinced me the most and have no regrets going with this one! Currently rocking 3.9.
[Vibrant Android Development] c_licious:
+1 Haven't been able to get GPS working after deep sleep since 3.8 either. Otherwise great ROM but no GPS kinda kills it
[Vibrant Android Development] lewishollow:
Agreed on GPS after deep sleep - worked fine in 3.7, broken 3.8 and 3.9. I flashed the sub zero kernel, and now GPS comes back like a champ.

This rom is amazing, and it changed my life.
[Vibrant Android Development] Devilisher:
Voted for slim

people do vote if u run this beauty

http://m.lifehacker.com/5915093/five-best-android-roms
[Vibrant Android Development] Guitar100:
Voted Slim.
[Vibrant Android Development] junglerumble:
First time flashing slim. A bit confused on what to download. So the latest for us would be the 56mb slim base that is 3.8 and then vibrant essentials on top of that? We don't have 3.9 for the vibrant yet?
[Vibrant Android Development] silvercrown266:
It's already 3.9

Download 3.9 Base, 3.9 essentials and the gapps.

Actually the answer to your questions are on the changelog. So just read a little bit next time
[Vibrant Android Development] n3td3v:
Would love the option to change back to the original boot animation. :/

Also would like to see this on the T989!!
[Vibrant Android Development] lewishollow:
So is anyone else not getting GPS back after deep sleep with the stock kernel, or is it just us lucky few?
[Vibrant Android Development] hkfan:
Voted :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Sincitybronze:
Yes, then gapps
[Vibrant Android Development] nkawal:
My wifi is very flaky, worked fine after initial install, phone died after fully recharging wifi doesnt want to work properly. after waking phone it takes about 2 minutes to kick in and it consistently looses connections when connected. Is there any kernel or fixes for this?
[Vibrant Android Development] aghoshhajra:
I'm having that problem where android system keeps your phone awake the whole time my phone is on. Anyone have a fix? I reboot it usually but it takes a couple times for it to work. Wouldn't usually complain but I'm used to it lasting a long time, but now it's dying on me while I'm at work.

Great ROM btw. I've used it since 3.1. It's definitely my favorite ICS so far.
[Vibrant Android Development] moldyghosty:
I don't think this is a common problem. Maybe reflash?
[Vibrant Android Development] methyl:
Getting this problem sometimes too.
[Vibrant Android Development] Devilisher:
had the same problem in two versions of slim 3.2 & 3.4...the only solution that I took was to clean the kernel and install Glitch or subzero 80

3.2 got better n android sys didn't kept my phone awake but in 3.4 that problem persist me in both the kernels but the frequency after changing the kernel help in reducing the weird problem.....

hope above works for U :)
[Vibrant Android Development] aghoshhajra:
Thanks I'll definitely give it a try. Hopefully it works. I love this ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] junglerumble:
I'm warming up to lightning launcher. I'm using it with the zune theme, very nice. Anything else I could do to sex it up a bit?
[Vibrant Android Development] kimbo1986:
Its been a while since I flashed anything offer than 2.2 rooms but with that article coming out talking about this from I decided to give it a wgirl, and I must say, wow! What changed so much lately that enabled such better battery life? Anyways I have a quick question. I notice there is no voodoo sound on here and I'm used to that extra volume boost. Is there anything in the from or anywhere else, I can up the volume a bit?
[Vibrant Android Development] gunks:
Use the pre-installed DSPManager app.
[Vibrant Android Development] kimbo1986:
Wow! I saw the DSP manager but back on cm7 it didn't help out much, only the equalizer helped boost all freq but now I notice the headset amp, they really made some improvements! Great stuff, thanks bud.
[Vibrant Android Development] teatime0315:
Anyone elses phone completely die? I was running 3.8 Slim for about two weeks and I've been noticing it not charging completely overnight for the past week. Then today it completely died. Phone wont boot or charge. Anyone know of a fix?
[Vibrant Android Development] chadhoard:
Can I flash SubZero 80 on version 3.9?
[Vibrant Android Development] aghoshhajra:
I just installed subzero 80. Works so far. I'm still having the Android system problem I mentioned a few posts up but I doubt it has anything to do with the kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] chadhoard:
Did you just flash it or use the clean kernel first?

If wifi is on and I go out of wifi range then 3G does not work until I switch off the wifi.

Anyone facing this issue with 3.9?
[Vibrant Android Development] krarvind:
Sorry mate, i can't integrate it into the ROM but will put it in unsupported mods as there is a flashable zip.
[Vibrant Android Development] krarvind:
No issues on my Gnex and Sgs. Switches seamlessly.
[Vibrant Android Development] krarvind:
Not gonna do that, thats on viber's side to accomodate GT-I9000 and other models. Sorry
[Vibrant Android Development] hkfan:
No problem. But if you can just say "that mod should work on slim" then I can flash it without any second thought.
[Vibrant Android Development] krarvind:
he he, i can't say that. hence its unsupported, you will have to try it yourself. its just one file, shoiuldn't cause grief.
[Vibrant Android Development] Guitar100:
I picked Apex as my default launcher. How can i get Lightning launcher back as default? I see it under apps but i can only force close or uninstall...

Gracias bro. That did it. Now i have to learn to customize with it. ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] RoxAbout:
home and back

Hitting Home will not bring it to the home screen selected as home,

Long press home will not go to running apps or past running apps..

hitting back will not kill the app like the selection says [long press back to kill...]

installed from full wipe v3.9

any ideas?

thanks!

otherwise still my fav rom and yes I voted for it :).
[Vibrant Android Development] Devilisher:
U must have change the settings in NSTOOLs...

for past running apps while pressing Home change the Led Timeout to its default i.e. 1800 sec and also turn off all the settings like status and blink status..

reboot if nothin change

hope above solve ur problem
[Vibrant Android Development] krarvind:
4.0 Released. Read the changelog and upgrade method as always
[Vibrant Android Development] joe98200:
New boot animation is pretty nice. Very minimal.
[Vibrant Android Development] jay661972:
I assume that in your web page you have slim for HTC One X, is that the HOX International or ATT version? I wish I can use your rom to my ATT HOX. Using your rom to my vibrant
[Vibrant Android Development] jay661972:
Running it now, love the bootanimation.
[Vibrant Android Development] cale42:
Ok.. I really did read the changelog and installation directions and everything. But this is my first week on Slim and thus first upgrade.

The instructions say to use the gapps from 3.9? So when I upgrade do I need to reflash that gapps zip after I flash the base and the essentials. Or does that mean I only need to flash base and essentials this week. Sorry if it's a dumb question but I didn't quite understand that.

thanks,cale
[Vibrant Android Development] Blars1206:
Just made the switch to slim for the first time and very nice. Was having a hard time finding something that could match gummy in performance and stability, but just a little lighter and I never tried this because I was so lazy I didn't feel like downloading three files and flashing them....lol. Anyway, so far it is my dream ROM so thank you.
[Vibrant Android Development] gospodruma:
loving the rom...but can't get the standard music player to work.any help on that or is that something done on purpose?
[Vibrant Android Development] jonen:
on 4.0

loving the new boot animation as well

really glad you added the new clock options. was using white text on my first ICS mod and i can finally use white once again :)

would love to see the essentials/kernel boot animation updated to say 4.0.4 or have a new spiffy one all together but no complaints here

great work
[Vibrant Android Development] chadhoard:
What themes can be used with this ROM?
[Vibrant Android Development] Guitar100:
+1
[Vibrant Android Development] hkfan:
Having strange issue....... After coming from no signal.. Phone takes too much to catch the signal....if I toggle airplane mode...it gets signal instantly.

I was not facing this issue few builds back

Any way to reduce signal scan time
[Vibrant Android Development] Closfig1:
Nah, bro. That only applies to those who are new (first dl to slim) your upgrading so follow the instructions or use update me
[Vibrant Android Development] Guitar100:
Yes,but do I flash 3.9 gapps again with essentials and base?
[Vibrant Android Development] krarvind:
read changelog mate, i specify it there in the download link area.
[Vibrant Android Development] Guitar100:
Direct : Slim ICS 4.0 ( Download Manufacturer base 4.0, device essentials 4.0 and Slim Gapps ( only for new users, existing users use the same one from 3.9 until i explicity say d/l new one). Flash all 3 in that order

Krarvind....I respect you and your work. But it says "existing users use the same one from 3.9"....so do i reflash 3.9 gapps or only essential and base. Im so sorry if i sound like a **** but i dont quite understand.
[Vibrant Android Development] hkfan:
just flash all three....i also flashed all three without any data loss
[Vibrant Android Development] Shrivel:
I had to re-flash the gapps.
[Vibrant Android Development] Guitar100:
Thank you guys...... Will flash all three. kravind, love this rom
[Vibrant Android Development] jonen:
i believe krarvind stated it somewhere earlier but since the base is now only 44mb, it only makes sense to flash gapps with a new base flash bc the rom size cannot include the gapps at 44mb
[Vibrant Android Development] Closfig1:
Yes, but cale asked for upgrade...

Here are the directions buddy's:

From the change log

Upgrade: Usual wipe cache/dalvik except for OneX where you follow my installation instructions.

From the nstallation instructions....

Upgrading Slim

Download manufacturer base, device essentials. A simple wipe cache, dalvik cache ( unless directed otherwise by the version changelog), then flash base***, essentials and Slim Gapps Reboot to system

*** - If the base flash is too quick ( < 5 seconds or so), reflash base before flashing essentials.

Japanese text doesn't show up in Twitter and Facebook apps. Any idea how to resolve?
[Vibrant Android Development] HeavyA:
Move apps to SD. The issue is the app space on the datadata partition. Smaller space but faster. Moving them to data allows for more space but runs slightly slower. Unless I have those two system folders backwards. In which case reverse my description.:)

The boot animation is wicked awesome! I'm still not a fan of the God awful kernel logos...they're so 4.0.3! Great work as usual dev!!
[Vibrant Android Development] marco1819:
getting horrible battery life even battery calibrated.anyone experiences this?
[Vibrant Android Development] MV10:
Battery calibration is a myth.

That being said, yes, I've only been running 4.0 for about an hour on battery, all standby, and I've already seen 10% consumption on a 2300mAh battery. Under 3.2 I was using only about 1% per hour on this same battery. Location services disabled, sync disabled, no usage but standby...
[Vibrant Android Development] Wharmaster:
Amazing ROM. I've tried about every ICS ROM available for the Vibrant now, and this one is by far the best. Ditched the launcher though...I'm set in my ways and the interface drove me nuts.

Thank you, Devs. Great job, really. My phone runs like a race car now :D
[Vibrant Android Development] cletusarrarr:
Anybody ?
[Vibrant Android Development] MV10:
Minor note about the instructions for changing DPI:

The instructions still refer to "Market" but as you know, Google has renamed this service "Play" (which is awful).

Also, I don't see a way to clear data in Play. (I never did this in the old Market, but the only thing Play has is the ability to clear search history, as far as I can tell.)
[Vibrant Android Development] krarvind:
you can't do it from play, but from settings, storage, apps, all, find play store, clear data or from ASS, generalUI, lcd density
[Vibrant Android Development] Shrivel:
May be a kernel issue - running 4.0 with Subzero80 and the battery is just as good if not better than the last few releases. After 3 hrs of very light use (mostly standby) this morning, mine showed 95% on a stock battery.
[Vibrant Android Development] mdkathon:
Amazing rom. I'm on a T-Mobile Vibrant and thought it was just too old and laggy as I have tried many roms. This is by far the best. Anyone with a Vibrant should give this a shot.

I came from ICS Passion 13.1

1) Downloaded

2) Wiped Cache

3) Formatted

4) Installed Base + Vibrant package + gapps

It just worked. No weird stuff. Installed Nova Launcher and am good to go.

Thanks again!
[Vibrant Android Development] ajvasudhar:
4.0 Very nice and real fast

Been a slim fan for quite sometime now, After the framework upgrades, I think its pretty fast. No issues with performance, stock kernel is real nice. Battery has been a little heavy though, but I use a 3000 mAh battery, so I really do not see the pinch, I get a solid 1.5 days of heavy use. GPS snaps the moment you are outside with the phone looking at the sky :).

krarvind, awesome presentation, very simple methods to upgrade and no hassle of odin back to stock, then a fresh install. Keep up the good work.

How to get 4x4 Grid Size?!

I flashed this today. It's a smooth rom. My only problem is my homescreen grid size isn't 4x4. Everything looks stretched and the fonts small. I changed the font to large which helps. Is there a way to adjust this grid on the homescreen?

P.S. I downloaded Apex Launcher but 4x4 grid is still stretched looking. My folders and menus looks small.

Psh that's awesome. Slim is relatively new the the crowd and with a "small" supported device group. Not to mention the development team is 1 developer with testers. ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] mau006:
I am having similar issues, but I also had them on 3.9. I installed Watchdog Task Manager and am trying to figure out what part of "android system process" is keeping the phone awake all the time. Awesome ROM, and once I get this solved I couldn't be happier. Wanted to get a Galaxy Nexus but can't rationalize it now!
[Vibrant Android Development] marco1819:
Flashed back to 3.8 again.cant figure out why my phone is awake all the time
[Vibrant Android Development] krarvind:
when you have issues line that use better battery stats or do a clean install
[Vibrant Android Development] marco1819:
Ill try it again.
[Vibrant Android Development] chadhoard:
Are there any themes available for this ROM? If so, where is the best place to find them?

Once in a while...when I pick call, phone thinks I didn't pick call and it keeps on ringing and keep showing incoming call alert.....even though I picked the call .

I downloaded the extra font pack and installed the zip via cwm but I can't seem to find the option to actually change the font in settings. Any help?
[Vibrant Android Development] prbassplayer:
You misunderstand. Only 5 system languages ( as in what the phone uses as default). The font pack provided is to be able to read other languages that use a different character set.
