Haha, I think I found that out by accident one day. Glad it came in use after all.

Cheers,

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pside15:
Glad to help out. Just shoot me a PM if you ever need any future builds tested. I'm always ready to flash a new ROM. I was also wondering about the gapps you linked to. Is there any downside to using the regular slim Gapps from the link below instead of the Aroma installer one? Aroma is cool but it's just a little to buggy for me so I try to avoid it when I can.

http://slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/all/viewdownload/383-addons/3625-slim-gapps-4-2-2-build-7-x

Also, just to clarify the extra APN thing that Mike mentioned. The first ROM I flashed to test only had the PTA APN, which is what this phone came with. I found the info for him to add the phone APN, which is what is on the newer LTE phones. They both work fine but sometimes I loose my data connection(not sure why but it happens on every ROM) and switching between the 2 APNS always fixes it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DvineLord:
been waiting to try a new build hopefully it can be a daily driver for a few days with no data issues. in call volume good on this build?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pside15:
There are no data issues. The issue I was talking about in my previous post is my own personal problem. Is like sometimes my data connection to Google goes away and I have to change APNS to get it to work. It's happened on different ROMs so I think it's something on my end. Actually hasn't happened on this ROM yet. No issues at all for me.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] macropterous:
I have had this issue as well (Google sync randomly begins to fail). So far removing and then replacing my base Google account (back-up account) has resolved the issue; I will let you know if this continues to stick.

I have also noticed what feels like a two second lag when turning screen on.

Thanks again,

dbd
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pside15:
Cool, definitely keep me posted on your data. Switching APNs always fixes it but if your method fixes it permanently it would be awesome.

The lag for the screen turning on is on all the AOSP ROMs with the 3.4 kernel, I believe. It's been there on every one I've used.

This is definitely the most stable ROM I've used that has the new kernel. I haven't had a single random reboot since I flashed it. I've had at least a couple a day on all the other ROMs.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] macropterous:
I was able to resolve the failing Google sync issue, by reloading my back-up account, as noted, and disabling "People details" sync (per this known issue).

However, this seems to have revealed that there is indeed some kind of connection issue. Once a connection is established (i.e. blue, with up/down data arrows & a green sync indication) the phone will maintain it (at least for four+ hours in my tests). Once it loses that connection or in my tests attempts to switch connection type (i.e. LTE>HSPA(+)>EDGE) it will never return a data connection.

As noted by pside, switching APN's will solve temporarily and return a blue connection, simply toggle LTE and you will lose it. Interestingly, you can toggle back to the same APN profile and return the connection, you need not use one then wait to use the other.

I hope this helps understand the root of the issue.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DvineLord:
Same data issue here. Also google maps doesn't up completely on the screen. Could be an issue with the new google maps not sure. Also have lots of touchscreen lag, would flashing the updated touchscreen help that havent changed since i downgraded it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] macropterous:
My maps appears to work normally and use full screen.

I do not notice touch-lag on the updated firmware, just a short delay on screen-on.

dbd
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jrior001:
I don't believe this to be a ROM specific issue...I have seen this from time to time on more than an few ROMs. The way I've solved it previously was to remove my Google account, reboot to recovery, wipe cache/dalvik cache and then reboot and reads my Google account. I can't promise this will hold for days though as I typically am a 2x/day flasher testing my own stuff out.

For others thinking about trying this tom, let it be known I've been on the latest build since the beta test a few days ago and have not experienced anything like that so its not affecting all users
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DvineLord:
maybe new google maps just looks that way, not used to the menu tab on bottom left thought it was getting cut in half and the search bar not extending across the screen.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mikshepard:
There has been talk in the Jewel threads about the screen-on delay (I personally don't experience it), however it is something being worked by the Cyanogenmod Team (whom sources I use in this port). As soon as a fix is out you can be sure that I'll get a build out for you guys, in the mean time it affects all AOSP ROMs but hopefully isn't too bad for you guys that see it :)

As for the data problem, I'm compiling a new build now, SlimBean 7.5, let me know if you are still having issues with it and I'll look into it further. Please let me know if you see it with all AOSP ROMs or just this one.

Cheers,

Mike
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mikshepard:
Yeah, I just find the Aroma one easier to use, mainly because I don't install all the gapps (Still using gtalk over Hangouts, etc), so this gives everyone an option but the bulk flashable zip will work just fine. Whatever's easier :)

Cheers,

Mike
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pside15:
I have the data issue on all AOSP ROMs, not just this one. Not too much of a problem though. I've noticed that it seems to happen after I'm on a phone call. I'm on LTE all the time so when I get a call it switches back to 3G/H to take the call, which is normal, but it doesn't connect back to LTE properly after I end the call. It shows I'm on LTE but I have no data. But it comes back after I switch APNs.

Thanks for the info on the gapps as well. Just wanted to make sure the Aroma version wasn't better in some way or something.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mikshepard:
Here's the new build, it uses SlimBeans latest sources, syncing it to version 7.5. Can you or someone just let me know that it flashes and boots ok, so I can add it to the OP?

It should be a solid build for you guys, enjoy.

P.S. Probably won't matter to the majority of you but I noticed there was a problem with bash on this build, I'll get an update out in the next few days with a fix.

I've noticed that Facebook accounts won't sync contacts to the people app. Is this on purpose? lol. I've been able to sync facebook contacts with carbonrom, rootbox rom without issue.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jrior001:
Root box I know added a hack to make that work. With all JB ROMs Facebook removed the built-in ability to sync contacts. You'll need an app like uber-sync to sync them on most AOSP roms
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bearnakedbrew:
I honestly have no complaints about this. Not even battery life. I unplugged at 6a.m. this morning and at 10:20p.m. I have 50% battery left.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mikshepard:
I finally got around to posting the how-to for creating this ROM, sorry for the delay. The method described should work for porting most ROM's to Jewel, so don't feel like it's only for SlimBean (maybe compare the differences between my Root-Box tutorial if you get stuck trying another port). Let me know if there are problems with it, otherwise you can always feel free to PM me if you have any questions or would like some help.

Also, if you are into building, checkout my acompile script in my signature, it'll email you when your build is complete using Gmail's snmp and will include the time it took and the last few lines of the output. I find it very useful for knowing when my build is done (especially since they take me about 3+ hours apiece)

Have you gone through the whole process needed for running the AOSP ROMs with the 3.4 kernel?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mikshepard:
Anyone wanna feeling adventurous today? Here is a new build, version 7.8. I know I said the last build was the final 4.2, but this is another. 4.3 isn't fully pushed and sorted out yet on the Slimroms side, all good things in due time :) However, this is still a noteworthy build. It uses the latest kernel update, 3.4.11; as well as many code cleanups on the SlimBean side, including a lot of menu reordering for the Slim stuff (see here if you can't find something). I've been running it for 12 hour on my Jewel device and it's real stable and nice. I found one new feature, the PIE can now use the builtin system icons for choices (something I like). If you feel like trying it, let me know if you run into any major problems. I plan on posting it on the OP tomorrow after I've received feedback that it's fully stable.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pside15:
Hmm, interesting. A couple of things, which version of TWRP are you using? Not sure if it matters but could possibly cause the problem. Are you flashing the Slim gapps and not just the regular gapps? Not sure if that would cause a bootloop like that but just something I thought of that's different from other 4.2 ROMs that you haven't had any issues with.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ZeRo2o9:
I am running the newest version of twrp 2.6.6 I believe. Yes and I tried with slim gapps and without. I am on vanilla root box and ran AOKP with no problems
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pside15:
Well, I have no idea what the issue could be. When you did a full wipe, did you wipe system too? I believe that most installer scripts wipe system before they do the install but it's worth a shot if you didn't try that. I've had ROMs in the past that wouldn't flash properly if I didn't wipe system so I just do it all the time now to be on the safe side.

I share the same data connection issue. Until the issue is resolved I recommend avoiding LTE unless in a strong signal area.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ZeRo2o9:
yes I always do a full wipe when i flash a ROM. im not sure why its not wanting to boot. I really wanted to try this too
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pside15:
I was just checking because most people don't usually include wiping system when they do a full wipe. I don't think TWRP 2.6 wipes system when you just do their standard wipe. You have to go into advanced to wipe system. Are you using the updated Slimgapps? Just asking because the first time I flashed the update I didn't realize there were updated Slimgapps for the 7.x version of the ROM. None of this post will probably help but I'm just trying to think of anything.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pside15:
The standard wipe is normally fine. I've just had ROMs, not this one, not boot properly until I wiped system, which the standard wipe on TWRP 2.6 doesn't do.I'm just trying to think of something that could possibly get this ROM to boot for him since it seems like he's doing everything correctly and doesn't have issues with other AOSP ROMs with the new kernel.

With all the changes to other repos that went into getting the 3.4 kernel working its nearly impossible to go back at this point. Not saying it couldn't be done but you'd basically have to rollback the last 2 months worth of work, and what you'd be left with is pretty much the same build from 2 months ago anyways.

I don't think the bricking issue has anything to do with the 3.4 kernel. I've used multiple ROMs with the 3.4 kernel, including this one, and haven't had any issues at all. It's something to do with the move over to JB 4.3. I don't think anyone has bricked in the same way on 4.2 ROMs with the 3.4 kernel.

Yea, what Timmaaa said as well.

Slimbean 4.3

Finally, after 3 weeks and about 30 failed compiles (about 3.5 hours per compile), I finally have a working 4.3 slimbean build for you all. Slimbean 4.3 is on beta 5.2 currently and I will not being putting these beta builds on the OP until the SlimBean sources reach stable. However, I'll put what I compile in the posts here for anyone wanting to flash them in the meantime. I've been running this for Jewel (again, I don't have an Evita device) and I'm pretty happy with it so far :)

The goods

- Compiled with gcc 4.7, latest slimrom sources, 3.4.60 kernel, the usual command line tools and tweaked bash. Also compiled in the latest Focal sources.

Bugs:

-on first boot, some ringtones were missing. The showed up after a reboot and have been there since.

-GPS seems broken for now on Jewel but I heard it'll work fine on Evita, let me know

Note: this was built with -Os flags, the -O3 are failing with qcom_display-caf errors. I'm still working on this, however I wouldn't let it detour you, I've never noticed a huge difference between them

Note2: The slimrom team is working like mad on the source code. There is literally updates every few hours to things. So lets keep talk of bugs down for now until they get everything ironed out. Remember that these 4.3 builds are BETA currently.

Here's the build:

http://d-h.st/F42

Here's your toggleable 4.3 gapps:

http://slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewdownload/908-addons4-3/5132-slim-aio-gapps-4-3-build-beta-5

Note, if you are coming from a 4.2 build, do a full wipe (including system). If you are upgrading from the last beta, you will have to uninstall Google Now and reinstall it, do to some security upgrades causing a FC on it.

Again, this is BETA, use the version from the OP for a stable build.

Enjoy!

As far as I can tell, no. I could contact them about making it official, and I may do that at some point. There is a bunch of steps involved in that, but I'll try to add it on my list if there is a demand for it.

This is a known problem and it's mentioned on the gapps page, due to new security features in Google Now, you have to uninstall it and reflash the gapps if you are dirty flashing. I've experienced these FC's and doing this fixes the problem.
