Im not at the moment on this rom doing some construction works on other rom.....so what you need to look if gmail was install to system then use tools that ask for root permission and uninstall from system. ...then go to play store and install from there again ( if you do this way your gmail will not be mounted to system)....and see if this will reproduce same problems. ....if still do same issue run logcat with app mounted back to system if it was there first time or opposed and attach logcat to your issue ticket for rom developer to look in to

I use System app remover that give you option to clear save and then uninstall app from system so you don't have to flash again to gain same app you uninstall from system here is picture of app or anything similar to do the job

You can also just use slimsizer, which is part of slimcenter, to remove those system apps ;)

Did you only flash gapps or one of our aio packages?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zhangmaster12:
I flashed just GApps. All of them are working great except for GMail (which functions, but upon reboot requires update and Real Dark Slim theme doesn't work for just the app).

In slimizer, I have 2 gmail apk's, gmail.apk and gmail2.apk.

And to the slimteam: love this rom, really breathed new life into this phone! With the onset Build 6 and 7.1, I'm reminded of that giddy feeling i got when i first bought this phone 2 years ago!

OK, I removed both apk's but GMail was still there. I went ahead and used the uninstall feature to uninstall GMail. However reinstalling gmail from app store still give problem where it is not Real Dark Slim.

Ahh, forgot to add in my post that I did reboot immediately after removing apks with slimsizer. However is seems like the gmail that was using on my device was not a system app at all! I downloaded an app called RootAppDelete and gmail showed up in user apps, not system apps.

I'm having an issue with the phone randomly locking up when using some apps, requiring holding the power button to reboot. I recently switched from AOKP 4.2.2 and never had freezes on there. I performed a clean install (wiped data, dalvik, cache, system, etc) and am using stock kernel

Hmm searched the thread and seems that a lot of people are using STI kernel with no issues. Guess I'll give that a shot (ver. 2.38) and see if that fixes it

Unrelated question -- I remember changing a setting for the brightness power widget button. It allowed me to set what happens when I press it once, twice, three times, etc. Now I cannot find that option anywhere. Does anyone happen to know where it is located?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fronti90:
So just to clear up a few things:

we are working on 4.3, getting devices ready, adjusting stuff and testing and having some really big changes at the same time. so we are really busy atm and havent decided yet if the next release(s) are going to be 4.2 to make sure those bug changes work or move to 4.3 right away ;)

as usual:

dont ask for ETA! ;P

I recommend STI, works really well with Slim. Bump that max CPU threshold to 130000 and turn on CPU tweaks in Tweaks and this ROM is blazing fast with virtually no lag.

I just wanted to say again thank you. I have my new battery's and the phone has never had an issue since. I would never had figured that out with out your help.

This is funny. Today I had to replace my Bluetooth jack. It was not hard, with the help of a U-Tube video. Pop a electric board out and snap a new one in.

I've had this, but not in a while - as in a few builds ago. This may be kernel related, though. Are you running stock without any tinkerings? Not saying that's the issue, because you should be able to make certain changes without any adverse effects like this.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] souldrainer2021:
YAy!

Thank you for the hard work!!

Unfortunately I've run into a problem, at firs the battery was draining at a high rate, which was expected as things were setting up and whatnot. Its been a few hours now and I'm charging the phone, it is charging very slowly, I believe something is going on with my phone.

Can you help me identify the problem here and tell me what I should do?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
There are NEW gapps for Build 8 - you must download them or you may run into problems.

That sounds like a bad battery or cable, never had this issue with any rom, let alone Slim.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RatusNatus:
I'm asking if all gapps and add-ons are updated, like aio for example or the real black gapps.

I've saw the new links there.

Photosphere will replace my camera or add another?

Ratus, my friend, you're killing me! ;)

From slimroms Build 8 changelog:

"Gapps update: Google Music, Google Play Services, move google Now to system app"

Rule of thumb is whenever slim releases official updates (usually not the weekly builds), they also update gapps. Hope this helps.

Im on a new GT9505. Ive just flashed build 8 to give it to my syster. Her first phone with a screen, lol.

Everything was fine. AIO stuck on 60%... second attempt was fine.

Man i'm lost on S4 forum. 3 pages of active rons...i cant decide so im sticking with stock TW, lol.

I must say i'm not that impressed. Our I777 is really a good phone. If you are thinking in change, wait is still a option.

ill keep comming here. :p sorry :D

No worries, sir! In the old days our forum was easily 2-3 pages deep of active roms, and the 9100 forums were sometimes 5-6 deep (hellraising options).

Anyway, glad you still hang around and were able to get the AIO working; if you accidentally get the S4 update that locks the bootloader, you'll always have a home here!

My phone was perfectly fine on 7.1. I redownloaded/flashed everything (just rom + gapps). The battery drain seems quite high when I'm using it, the phone also gets pretty hot on the camera. Its really weird, when I'm not using it the battery % goes up a little.

I'm thinking about just going back to 7.1 where there were no problems, but I will drain my battery to 0, and recharge to 100, then see what happens. Hopefully its just my phone buggin out after a new install.

Very nice ROM. Unfortunately could not stay on it for long as Bluetooth is partially broken. Using MPE (MyPhoneExplorer) cannot get the COMM port over BT to work - the PC never sees any of the services for the phone (specifically the Serial Port (SPP)).

I know that the OP had listed that BT as iffy, just wanted to chime in about this. I use MPE multiple times a day to update the calendar in my phone - BT functionality is an absolute must and cannot do without. I'll be watching and if the BT functionality improves, I'll try it again.

Thanks,

Battery life aside this is definitely still a beta. Ran it yesterday for about an hour. Bluetooth and the drawer are glitchy. Will be very nice once it settles.

Personally, also, I need "swipe to wake" option in the kernel before I run anything else. I dont want my lock button breaking.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fronti90:
BT should work now... please give a logcat and more information on the error otherwise your post is more or less useless. Drawer is a known issue, working on that.

swipe to wake is completely kernel related and something we won't add as stock so try another kernel

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
This is all you had to say: it's typical for our device to misread the fuel gague. Give it about 2-3 charging cycles and everything should settle in.

Or you could install a different kernel if you'd rather do that.

Well he's right I'm getting battery bugs too, mine just straight won't charge. Reverting to backup until fixed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
There is no bug here, especially one that won't allow your phone to charge. And even if there was it would be great if you could post a logcat or a BBS screen so we could see what was really happening.

Often times these so-called drain issues are the result of user apps running rogue in the background undetected, or simple things like dirty flashing too often between builds/clean installs. Not saying you're to blame, just it's virtually never the rom at fault - and in the case of build 8 I can safely make that statement.

As for kernels, we have only 2 external choices left; AJK (brilliant) and STI (brilliant), both Siyah variants. The stock kernel is great also, but those other 2 offer more tuning abilities for those so inclined.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] CyanJustice:
Yeah I've used em. Still, reverting.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] s33d1ing:
I flashed build 8 on my i777 earlier it was charging fine for me while I was messing around with it. I've had plenty of strange battery problems on that phone though. Just let it charge fully and give the new build a go. I'm sure it'll straighten itself out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] souldrainer2021:
I'm glad that I'm not the only one (sort of), as I thought I did something wrong. FYI you can get it to charge slowly by turning your device off while doing so.

If BBS is the better battery stats app, I have a similar app called Battery Stats Plus which I can post (once I figure out how to screenshot). I used Catlog to get the log for you, if you could point out anything that may be causing this I would be very happy to help out, so that other people do not have the same problem. Please let me know if I can be of any help at all :D

For the next few days I will keep this ROM version running before reverting, and see if these battery problems can be fixed. :good:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fronti90:
Thanks for the log, I'll take a look at it once I am back home.

For everyone else *****ing about battery there are a few things:

1. This is a development thread, so unless you don't provide any logs that proof it is rom related stop posting anything related to battery!

2. As it was mentioned plenty of times by now the fuel gauge has to recalibrate, this takes some time, so instead of just reverting to a backup give it some time. Posting about battery issues a few hours after the build was released means you didn't wait and due to that shouldn't post :P

3. Don't report any sort of issues unless you performed a full wipe and it's still present, rules 1 and 2 still apply in that case.
