I would like to see the following features implemented:

1. AOKP style choose which app to run. They have it so the "use this time" option is selected so all you need to do is select which app you wanna use. Where as with CM and SLIM you have to select app AND then select to use this time or forever.

2. The ability to set what action tapping the clock or calendar in notification drawer does.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] greekunit690:
Anyone think they can find a way to change the lock icon because it looks a bit out of place with my red theme... thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Starymari:
I was wondering that too. You can look on the FAQ on the website (link in the OP), it's the second or third question.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] greekunit690:
Thanks, wasn't aware it was called a handle so I didn't think twice about it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Rehab4Life:
Does anyone know why I'm getting the "PowerManagerService" and "wlan_rx_wake" wakelocks? (Both under Kernel Wakelocks in BetterBatteryStats) They both have about the same time such as 2 m 54 s. It's kind of weird.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Smittiegee19:
I'm pretty sure the power manager service is common and not anything to worry about. I also rhino the wlan one is for a WiFi connection and also not much to worry about. Someone correct me if I'm wrong though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jd1639:
Power manger is the place holder for all wake locks. If wlan is your primary wake lock then power manger would be mostly it plus some lesser wake locks which aren't amounting to much.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Rehab4Life:
Okay thank you guys! Also do you guys have the normal kernel for this that I could flash back because I want to try flashing Moretz Kernel. Or can you tell me how I could get to it and make it a flashable zip?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mrfeuss:
Just re-flash the Slim Zip. It'll overwrite the kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
Ok wait. What versions of Moretz and slim? It will work great if they are both built prior to april 24th. Both are in active development as of now and are only under initial testing. If you get into trouble and need a revert to stock, let me know.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Rehab4Life:
I don't know what CM Nightly the latest Slim (the one which I'm running) is on. I tried checking he build date but nothing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
Ya but not cleanly. The Moretz kernel (from the thread at least) comes with various init.d boot scripts. These won't be cleaned out when flashing over with a stock slim rom. Slim Comes with it's own and they conflict.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] prbassplayer:
Sure they will. Format /system before flashing ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
Whaaa? Go to settings/about... scroll to the bottom

EDIT:

Example: Slim-4.2.2.Alpha.1.0-i727-UNOFFICIAL-20130220-2135

The red is the build date: 2013 02 20

The green is the build time in 100 hours: 21:35
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] prbassplayer:
Dude slim isn't compiled based on nightlies per say. However it runs the older kernel setup. Pre 24th.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Rehab4Life:
My Slim Version says "Slim-4.2.2.build.4.2-OFFICIAL
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
Look above that at the kernel. Have a date there?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jd1639:
Kernel is 4/21
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
If that is the case, and I think moretz IS prior to that, you should be fine. It's also my setup and works great.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Rehab4Life:
4/21, how would I cleanly reflash the Slim Kernel if the Moretz was not of my liking?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kchen96:
just reflash the rom over it. your data will be intact. all roms comes packaged with a kernel. you can wipe cache and dalvik if you want
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
If you read back a bit, PR says it's ok as long as you wipe system partition as well. So you don't double up on boot script like I said.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] skyrocketeer:
Must use Slim-gapps, or are other gapps fine?

It says this on the slim site:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] SR4130:
I flashed a 4.2.1 inverted gapps package and it worked just fine. I also then flashed the new multi dpi inverted play store. Again no issues
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] skyrocketeer:
Just making sure :D

Never used slim before...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] prbassplayer:
You guys understand that our addons have TRDS built in them and you use anything else they won't work and I won't offer any support.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
Don't do what that dumb dumb said. It's all built into slim
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Starymari:
Hey guys! I'm having a problem. I looked thru as much of the thread as I could but didn't seen to find any issues like this on the newest update. Every time I try and restart my phone, it gets stuck at the boot up screen (I don't know what to officially call it) - it doesn't freeze,the s in slim glows like it normally would. After about 10 min. of this, I figure it's not going to turn on b so I go into recovery and wipe caches and reboot or power off and wait for 5+ minutes (at least) to try it again and sometimes it works but it takes a few tries to finally boot up correctly. It rarely reboots the first time.

Sorry if this had already been discussed, I really really love this ROM and really want to keep using it. I'm still kinda new at this so I'm kind of at a loss. I would really appreciate some guidance if anyone has a little time. Thanks is advance!:o
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] prbassplayer:
Cwm or twrp?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Starymari:
Twrp
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] prbassplayer:
Did you flash any other kernel or init.d scripts? Cache and Dalvik work with apps. Did you use our addons?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Starymari:
Yes, I downloaded the newest official Slim build and slim gapps, flashed and that's it. I didn't add any extra files
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] prbassplayer:
Set up adb and get a logcat. If boot animation is up should work
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dakpluto:

this. No need to flash other GAPPS and all that jazz. Not only is it all built in, the extra theming of dark slim looks so much nicer too. Like the Super AMOLED theme only better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
I did a quick scan of the FAQ and the OP, but I didn't see any obvious explanation if what TRDS is for noobs. Could it be added? I had to Google it when I first came here, and I have to add that it rocks!

;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] GTDarthYoda:
Did you try redownloading everything and reflashing?

ditto
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Starymari:
No, I didn't but if you think that will work I will try. If it doesn't, I'll get a logcat.

Thanks everyone for your help! :D

It's on our feature page on the site I believe.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mrro82:
In regards to the updated store, how do I get it to accept the dpi again without an update?

Sent from low Earth orbit with my Skyrocket.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mrfeuss:
Did you try these instructions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mrro82:
I don't want to change it though. I want to keep it at 182. What I meant was since the dpi fix is tied to the rom or gappsa themselves, since the store updated to 4.0.27 how do I go about getting my store correct again because right now I'm missing some installed apps and movies and books categories are gone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
Thanks pr. You are correct, however, I didn't see any reference to "TRDS" on the Unique Slim Bean Features page either.

Initially, I flashed the "required" Slim gapps plus some of my saved inverted 4.2 gapps because I didn't know what TRDS really meant; I thought it was the internal ROM theming (my bad). And some gapps looked wonky (go figure).

Furthering my confusion a bit, the TRDS "toggleable" options in the AIO Aroma were non-obvious, and I couldn't Google search on my phone while in Aroma and away from my computer, so I guessed on those.

Please don't misinterpret me here. I'm not complaining; I LOVE SlimBean, and I send others here when they ask for JB ROM suggestions or what I'm running on my phone. I am a SW engineer but no android dev (maybe some day), and I wanted to contribute by at least offering some feedback for this in the hopes of making it easier for others in the future.

My wife is going to get Slim v4.2+ on her SkyRocket when I replace her power button in a few days. #SheWillBeSlimmed ;)

Looking forward to the next update. Awesome work, and hats off to the entire Slim team for this and for officially supporting the SkyRocket again!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] android88:
The TRDS toggle is in settings. It basically inverts the whole ROM on one switch.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
Yes, thanks, I realized that on version 2.x or 3.x after I first tried Slim, at which time I first noticed the things I rambled about...

The TRDS toggle and battery life are two of the best features of SlimBean!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mrro82:

Where can I get help on the alloy blue theme?? I've installed it and am using it with this ROM. I set the DPI to 240 (stock) but when I get in my messages app the words aren't visible.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ganja_guru:
The best place is the developer of the theme, so try emailing the dev from the play store link.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] SR4130:
Yes I know it is all built in, the reason I flash the inverted gapps packages is for other apps like inverted Facebook and inverted Pandora. And i like the new play store. So no need for childish name calling. I was just stating I have had no issues, to answer his question

It's been taken care of. If you have a question, search, the answer is easy to find. I was in a good mood at the time and decided to throw the kid a bone.... Or, you could follow the other advice of emailing the dev from the play store. Either option will grant you an answer. JS

Hahaha you Sir are hilarious...... great story bro.....I know exactly what I'm doing. I didn't tell him to do it. I told him I did it and have had no issues. Learn to read first. And apparently it doesn't "break stuff" cause I'm running just fine. If I do something different than what the op states, i can guarantee I will never post about an issue because I have the know-how to fix it myself, and I've never bricked a phone ever.

Can someone tell me if I'm smoking crack or not?

About 2 days ago, I noticed an auto-update of Twitter downloading. This concerned me, since I don't have anything on my phone set up to auto-update. So, I uninstalled Twitter and power cycled my phone.

I also noticed that a couple apps weren't coming up in the TRDS theme. So, I went into Settings, disabled TRDS, rebooted, then enabled TRDS and rebooted again.

Then, I decided to reinstall Twitter, but it doesn't show up in the Play Store. When I check from my PC, it says that it's not compatible with my device.

I dl'd the playstore update from the slimroms.net website, but still no luck.

To the best of my knowledge I have not made any config changes that would affect play store, so I'm baffled.

-rob

PS. I also noticed when I went to flash the play store update that I had lost the advanced reboot menu. Which I know was working before. I had to go back into settings, re-enable the developer options, and reenable the advanced reboot menu

Photosphere won't work on any device only select Nexus devices. Msm8660 devices (skyrocket & hercules) are buggy right now. Although cm team has done huge work and fixes it's still not stable enough for us to release.

This is slightly off topic so I apologize in advance...

Just wanted to report that I've been running a build of slim that I made this morning, including the cherry picks up to cm10.1 n7 (iirc) and its been working pretty great. So I wanted to say thanks for continuing the work on slim!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dulexetina:

ditto!

If we could get that on this rom I'd be so happy!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] crazycage:
In general, what has changed so drastically in the kernal that would prevent the current SLIMROM from running on the Skyrocket? Or should I say... what benefits can we look forward to for our skyrockets after these changes are all done and working?

I only ask because I'm extremely satisfied with the 4.2 version of slimrom and will be more than happy to stay with this until there is enough reason to upgrade.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] prbassplayer:
It's not just kernel caf repos and other qcom repos have been also updated. However the bulk of it is msm8660 kernel. And basically they pulled MSM caf kernel and replaced the old kernel. It sucks now but I believe it will pay off on the long run. Having more up to date source and possibly making it easier to rebase to 3.4 or beyond. At least that's what I figure not sure the reasoning Cyanogen used.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] crazycage:
Thanks for the info. I will gladly wait until reported that the new version is as stable and bug-free as the current 4.2 before jumping on board (unless of course the bugs are so minor they are laughable) - I've been spoiled too much by your awesome work with SLIMROM and now the bar has been raised hehe. I really appreciate you looking out for the skyrocket, especially in the long-run! As an unrelated side note, my favorite dessert is KeyLimePie ;) can't wait to order (download) that some day soon :laugh:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] powerserge1:
xcrazy, Embryo is an excellent ROM, that was my daily driver for months. Mohan is a great dev but for me SLIM is perfect, I don't need all of what touchwiz provides. I prefer the slimmed down blacked out look. Not hating, just my preference. Lots of great devs on xda and I appreciate them all.

If/when multi window comes out for our skyrocket (a feature that is not yet working I do not believe) then I will try that ROM, whichever ROM and from whichever dev comes out with it first.

I don't hate anyone, how did u come to that conclusion :( All i said is that i tried embryo 7,and it is waaay slower than this ROM. I have a deep respect for mohan's work,so please don't call people idiots- it's a bit rude!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bluecrush69:
I was able to flash the rom no problem using TWRP 2.4.4. Everything is running smoothly except for the USB storage.

When I connect my device to my USB, I am able to successfully turn on USB storage on my phone and connect to my computer. However, when trying to turn off the USB connection, my phone freezes and becomes unresponsive.

The connection to my computer remains fine, as I'm still able to access my SD card/micro SD thru my desktop. But I'm unable to do anything on my phone.

Anyone else experiencing this problem? I've tried different a USB cable, and connecting it to a different USB port on my computer, but I'm still getting getting the same problem. I've also tried onlychevys' version of this rom and I also got the same problem. I was using the sons of anarchy rom before this and I had no problems with USB storage.

I really want to figure out how to fix this, as I'd love to use this rom daily. Really like the slimbean roms. Thanks for the work so far!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] crazycage:
I'm having the same problem as you, and have been for a while since JB 4.2.2. I don't think its specifically a problem with the SLIM ROM as I've had other versions of SLIM in the past and USB connection worked fine. You can always do what I do, download an FTP server from Google Play Store, I recommend "FTP Server" from The Olive Tree developer, and connect using an FTP client on your computer, although you might have to be on WIFI for it to work. I've already sent my phone in for repair to a damaged USB port so I am trying to minimize usage of the port unless ODIN is necessary. (my phone would charge but not connect to USB for transfers, ODIN couldn't even recognize it) WIRELESS ALL THE WAY BABY! :laugh:
