This ROM is so smooth and perfect except for one flaw that I can see. The way CM implemented PIE has it so you can't slide from off the screen to on the screen to bring up PIE. Instead you have to press the bottom of the screen and go up. Is anyone else having this issue? Also it would be nice to have an option to make the PIE static so it doesn't open up where you slide your finger but rather in the middle of the screen itself.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
It's not really an issue. It has to be like that.

I know it's not really ideal atm and we'll improve it in the future.

That won't really work because it overlays the apps.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Shmi117:
Sweet, and I think you misunderstood me at that last part. Let me rephrase.

Have it so that if you slide your finger in from the bottom (or wherever) it will open up at the bottom middle rather than where your finger is triggering the PIE controls. I know PIE from Carbon/Root box/PA has this feature.

Anyway thanks for everything :D
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
What's the point of it then?

I mean half the fun is that the controls are where you want them to be so that you don't have to look for the buttons.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Shmi117:
OK then, if you slide from the bottom far right corner some buttons will go off-screen. Same with the far left corner. All I'm saying is that it would be convenient to have an option for it to be static than dynamic so that all the buttons are accessible at any given time regardless of where you slide in from the bottom (this also applies to the sides too).
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
I'll forward it as a feature request.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] style154:
Found gnow its in the aio package :D but cant find the lockscreen icons I have slider targets and I have flashed twice and redownooaded :/ no big deal for me at all
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
There's as well a stand alone addon.

And the Shortcuts are exactly where I described them I just checked again.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Lar5:
Okay, I ran into a problem with YouTube from the Slim Gapps like on build 3.

Made a clean install on my N7 and restored my apps (no system settings) with TB.

When Google Currents tries to play a video, YouTube can't start.

Clearing the data from Currents and YouTube didn't help either.

I know it's properly not a problem with the ROM but the modified YouTube app.

What is actually changed?

Log 11:33:00

An error occurred while initializing the YouTube player.

[INVALID_SERVICE]

Last time I removed the YouTube.apk with SlimSizer and installed YouTube from the Play Store.

That doesn't seem to work this time. SlimCenter is just closing down.

Log 11:38:15

Unfortunately, SlimCenter has stopped.

I've tried to switch between RealDarkSlim/Normal and Danish/English (US) but no luck.

Same behavior and the apk can not be deleted using SlimSizer.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Voda_Smart_2:
I have the same problem like you (buid 3), with Tapatalk when I try to open youtube links.

I uninstalled modified youtube and installed from play and worked for some time but now I have again the same problem.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Thank you for the report and the logcats. Wish we got more reports like this one.

We'll look into it.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] style154:
Sorry to keep bugging you but here's a screenshot. Does anyone else have the shortcuts?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Ooops sorry my bad.

For some reason they're not present on the N7. I'll check that.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] style154:
Thanks knew I wasn't crazy :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Okay they are disabled by purpose because on the tablet you can have 8 lockscreen slider targets.

On phones it's present because they don't have enough space for 8 slider targets that's why the have the shortcuts as an alternative.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
JFYI tomorrow we'll release an updated version which should fix the problems with the languages and some other stuff.

Sorry for the inconvenience, we still have to get used to work with Crowdin.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] style154:
Thanks for the info that makes sense lol
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Robpollard:
Nice update! The N7 feels much faster and snappier now.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] s33d1ing:
Build 4.2 is up!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] cerj:
Looking and Running good. Thank you
[Nexus 7 Original Development] jnocomski:
Can anyone on build 4.2 check if you also have 2 galleries and no camera icon?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] gkcharn:
Only one Gallery icon. No camera icon.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Did you flash the picasa addon?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] jnocomski:
fixed it by re flashing. used aio aroma last time so i used aio addons this time. gallery is now single, but camera app is still missing.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Isn't that normal on the N7?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] jnocomski:
I am not sure if that's the norm but last i remember (Build 4) i have the camera app (of course when i open it, it uses the front cam) :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Wafflcopterz:
Nexus 7 never had a camera app. You can flash one though :) .

Just looked at my 7's build....I'm still on build 1.... Time to flash!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] awillis111:
1. Download MoDaCo's camera launcher from the play store.

2. The N7 only has a front facing camera.

Hi there,

one Question...Is there a way to change the color of the WiFi Symbol??? I want it in green.....
[Nexus 7 Original Development] #define:
Hello, peoples!!

Flashed this ROM today...

And I'm in a bit of a problem..

Google Play Services on the play store says its incompatible with this device, which in turn doesnt let me use youtube and g+..

Is there a workaround for this??

PS : the gapps i'm using are pretty old(play store 3.10.x).. I'm thinking thats the issue, just need someone to confirm this..
[Nexus 7 Original Development] infatality:
Flash slim gapps.. Don't use others gapps.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] #define:
Edit : nvm.. Found a workaround.. Changed lcd density to stock, updated play services and changed it back..
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Nope.

Try this ones here. No support if they don't work.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] annoyingduck:
Just flashed, haven't run slim since build 2 on my nexus. So fast.....Will report back after some time. Thanks again as always guys...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] efan3719:
You can't do it via slim settings. You'd have to apply a theme. I use this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blackout1911.theme.BetterbeanThemeGreenFree
[Nexus 7 Original Development] annoyingduck:
I have zero bugs to report, though I haven't messed with pie because I hate it. Battery life is absolutely exceptional. I was running the latest liquidsmooth and would get a 10% drain every hour sitting idol. This build lost 3% sitting idol for over 15 hrs. Speed is exceptional, almost no lag with multiple apps running/downloading at the same time. Fantastic build, gonna flash on my S3 later tonight. Great work again guys, thank you.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Mr Djoegoe:
I just flashed this rom but I forgot to flash the exchange add on, is it oke to flash it after?

[Nexus 7 Original Development] Vangelis13:
I don't remember exactly what it is or does but, you should be able to do that, yes. Just do a back up first.

Btw, this is truly a flash and forget rom. So stable, nice!! :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] prbassplayer:
Yup should be no problem
[Nexus 7 Original Development] extortion00:
such a great rom.. my only issue is the recent apps glitch is kinda irritating
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Will be fixed in the next version. Kufikugel figured it out.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] extortion00:
Thank you
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ganeshp:
It seems you guys are changing to nova as default launcher in next build

If that's the case.. Please check this

1.in expanded desktop mode with just status bar and pie.. Lots of screen resizing occurs when landscape to portrait transition happens

2.Also if you have some widgets in the home screen then couple of times nova crashes and gets restarted (happens at least twice a day)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] alonsoch:
Great ROM!! How is the battery life??
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Neither of them happen here.

I've been using Nova now for a week now on both my N4 and my N7 and it runs of both of them very good.

---------- Post added at 08:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:06 AM ----------

For me it's good but I've never used something else on my N7:D
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ganeshp:
Heh

I'm having that problem from build 2 itself and I have submitted couple of logs too

Are you using nova in expanded desktop mode most of the time?

And are you having transparent status bar too (just guessing maybe this is causing the issue as the part of wallpaper seems out of sync on status bar when it's transparent)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Yes I always use the expanded desktop because of Pie.

Status bar is normal though.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] krarvind:
Build 5 released. Read changelog and have fun. cheers
[Nexus 7 Original Development] alonsoch:
thanks..... i'm looking for a rom that without modifications give me minimum 7-8 hours of battery life(maybe with franco kernel ), recommendations?

thanks!!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
As I said I've never used something else on my N7 than SlimBean.

And I actually don't know what the average battery life on the N7 is.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Voda_Smart_2:
You can try SlimBean rom with default kernel and depend of what you run you can get min 6-7h with display and WIFI ON. If you need more battery run you can try to lower max freq.

I do not recomend others kernels because I experinced problems when I had other Rom: SmoothRom with Franco kernel, unepected reboots...

Since I installed SlimBean I have no problems and good battery life 6-7h with display and wifi On.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] efan3719:
I'm running slim and Motley's kernel and have 7+ screen on time with 25% left to go. Pretty much any kernel will give you decent battery as long as you don't over clock
[Nexus 7 Original Development] s33d1ing:
Update is working great! Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ganeshp:
I don't know what magic happened but no more nova launcher issues for me in the latest build thanks
[Nexus 7 Original Development] k29er:
But I can still use holo? Is holo going to be removed in the next build? One of the reasons I like this ROM is the gesture navigation. Its not as good with nova and I don't find nova any faster or smoother. I have nova prime and holo plus, run multi ROMs but never took to nova. Nova and carbon ROM had a good feel but they stopped using it for some reason.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] efan3719:
you can still use holo just like any other launcher. it's that now Nova is the one that is preloaded instead of holo.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] sNoxious:
Does SlimBean have Per App DPI Changer?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Heisenberg420:
No but you can install xposed framework for that
[Nexus 7 Original Development] jstn76rs:
Has anyone been able set up multiple users on build 5? I get a error that says unfortunate theme error when changing to landscape or changing something to the screen (only on second user). I did a full wipe and didn't install anything just set up both user. Build 3 works great for me and I didn't try 4.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] efan3719:
yeah happens here as well. if you can do a logcat. it will help them figure it out and maybe fix it a lot quicker.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] jstn76rs:
Could you point me in the direction of how to do a logcat?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] efan3719:
yup. slim has a guide on how to report bugs. and there is a link in it for a guide.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] tbgreen89:
Running build 5 on my nexus 7 and s3! Great job my friend!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bjcrj:
Thanks for the great ROM. Very smooth and working great!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] BurnOne77:
Greatness ! running slim 5 on my grouper and maguro !

:good:
[Nexus 7 Original Development] annoyingduck:
So build 5 on my GS3 has a fast charge quick tile (n7 does not), which inherently means the kernel supports it. Is this something we may see for the nexus 7? Having the tile would allow use of a kernel that supports fast charge if there are no plans for the stock n7 kernel to have it built in.

Other than that, been running 5 since it's release and I have zero issues to report. There is just no reason to ever consider another rom for this device.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
I'll see what we can do about it.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Jimi Mack:
So far after 3 days I am very happy with this Rom. It is light and quick and I really like the Slim part of this Rom. Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] slyd0997:
Small visual thing with the blue line under the status bar. It's thick and overlaps the status bar text. I've seen this in gmail and tapatalk. In gmail I see it when I check the box on the left of an email to delete or archive. In tapatalk I see it when I click on a post to thank or comment.

Otherwise great. Thanks for all your hard work.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Hey guys,

maybe you've already seen it, we have now weekly builds.

Also the download are had some small changes.

http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/downloads

Please be aware that weekly builds are unsupported! You can and should post proper bug reports like described here. However we won't release any fixes for this build.

Now go ahead and cure your ORD ;)

P.S. We currently don't have a changelog for the weekly builds. Github is probably the best place atm to see what changes we have.

---------- Post added at 10:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:54 AM ----------

I'll have a look at this.

[MENTION=4135991]krarvind[/MENTION] may I know if the default kernel for Slim uses linaro toolchain like the default slim kernel on the i9100G?

[Nexus 7 Original Development] bervin:
I'm on stock kernel and I've set my wifi to turn off when screen is off but it isn't turning off. Is that any way to fix this?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] coolek33:
Works fine here. Its an option for disable it when in sleep not screen off. So U have to wait a lil bit longer.

Not yet and I dont know if it's planned.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] deafened:
Hey folks. I've checked multiple threads and cannot find a solution. I am unable to click install on side loaded apps on my Nexus 7. I've ensured that I have Unknown Sources checked and have fixed permissions. I'm running build 5 with the built in kernel.

This process works perfectly on my S3.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] efan3719:
We need more info. What's happening? What's popping up? Maybe a log cat would be good.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] deafened:
I will try a log cat. However, for more info, I get the dialog that shows cancel and install. I can select cancel but selecting install does nothing.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] efan3719:
Are you using a screen filter app? Google disabled install with apps like that running so avoid tricking you to install malicious apps. Can you try it again with that turned off?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Shmi117:
Dat Lux night mode...

The only place which I've seen this happen is on PA 3.5 with Halo baked in. Check if you have applications that overlay the screen constantly. It might actually be Lux that's causing your problem, so you might want to try and disable that and install. Also, go into Settings>Accessibility and make sure nothing is conflicting with your ROM (overlays mainly).
[Nexus 7 Original Development] deafened:
You rock the Casbah. That did the trick. I use Twilight and as soon as I disabled it I was able to install.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Jimi Mack:
I have stopped bouncing from Rom to Rom and have made SlimBean the only Rom I will run. Thank you for curing me of my flashaholic ways. it is nice to have the free time for other things now. :)

I'd like to say thank you for this ROM. All this while I thought my N7 was lagging on performance. Once I switched to Slim, I was surprised at the performance boost. Tablet UI for me is a thing of the past now.

Slim + Xposed = A thing of beauty. Kudos to the slim team. :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Thanks for all the positive feedback guys!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nereis:
To those who flashed the weekly builds, is the script that keeps Holo Launcher from being uninstalled kept in place? Or will the later versions eventually drop Holo Launcher and support only Nova?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Holo we'll get removed from the backup script in the next build. Install it as a user app and you should be fine.

Has anyone had trouble with 5.5 and DNS resolving too slowly? It might just be my router but my computer seems ok so wanted to check, restarting the tablet fixes it, and it is mostly that browsers have trouble loading webpages, they don't timeout/404, just load them veeeeery slowly.

---------- Post added at 06:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:59 PM ----------

Can we use the upgrade zip to go from 5.5 (the link says its only for 4.*)

They should work yes. When you check the date it shows today.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] annoyingduck:
I've noticed this to, I thought it was my router, but all checks point elsewhere.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Pinktank:
still looks like slow browser / dns issues on the weekly. A technology blog took about two minutes to load, and timed out half of the page, no exaggeration. Turning wifi off and on fixes it.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] efan3719:
Weird I'm not experiencing those issues. Using naked browser. Though I just flashed the weekly. I'll try it out some more.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Pinktank:
It's hard for me to isolate it as a bug, I'll test it more and report tomorrow.

I know they said they won't provide support for weeklies but maybe a log cat would help? Idk. I'm sure it won't hurt.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] AdamWilb:
Just flashed on my N7, but I'm having a Play Store issue when it starts automatically restoring my apps. It'll download a chunk of them, but then downloads stall and it just gets stuck on starting to download the next one. From that point on I can't download any more apps through Play store. Just done a wipe & reflash and encountered the same issue when it got to Couch Forwarder. I've tried the usual wipe data / cache of the Google Service Framework & Play Store, recovery wipe cache & dalvik cache etc but it didn't seem to help.

Just going for one more attempt now.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Do a full wipe (factory reset + wipe /system) and make sure you use our gapps.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] AdamWilb:
Yep, done that - twice! Wipe -> format of / system -> wipe of cache -> wipe of dalvik -> Installed release 5 -> install slimgapps.

Seems to hang when it gets to couchforwarder. Also get an error about the LloydsTSB app not being compatible with this device...

Nova doesn't have nearly as many features as adw launcher. I own nova, apex and adw and adw is running on tablet and gnex.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] efan3719:
What does adw do that apex or Nova can't? I haven't used adw since gingerbread.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Flukester69:
Use it and find out. :D
[Nexus 7 Original Development] efan3719:
That's ok. I don't need to spend another 3 dollars on another launcher.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Pinktank:
It is mostly that it has more visual menus, I think sticking to nova might be a better idea.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Flukester69:
There is a free version. And no its not just more themes. Its more in depth than Nova and Apex but until you use it you will never know. Adw to me runs circles around the competition.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Is it based on the +4.x launcher? Or like Holo still gingerbread compatible?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] efan3719:
i've used the free one. the one that hasn't been updated since november of last year and i didn't think it was anything special. but to each his own. it really doesn't make a difference to me. i'll just install whatever i wanted over whatever slim puts in anyway.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Flukester69:
Its true it hasn't been updated since November but then it really has no bugs and nova and apex are only just now incorporating features adw has always had and still missing more. don't know if someone did an honest comparison of features but I'd say adw is still hands down the best. But like what was said, to each his own.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] efan3719:
you know what launcher i used to really like? Zeam. i think i have it installed on my HTC Hero. laying in drawer somewhere
