Bootlooping? Sorry. I wanted to test out something new. Yikes. You can dirty flash over the last build if it helps. Doesn't really have many changes. I'm still digging around for the app launcher freeze.

Sent from my HTC Sensation
[HTC Sensation] Sleepy!:
No need apologise. :)

BTW, Sultan helped only partially with the boot loops... the phone booted up, but froze at entering password for WiFi, and then rebooted.

Installing the 15th May build now...
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
I'm trying all possibilities to fix the app/launcher bug. As it's the most prominent in new builds. I'm a 100% sure it something tiny I've overlooked because all the code (from stock AOSP, to tweaked CM and all the way back to Slim source) the problem is still there. The HWC spam can be overlooked for now.

--EDIT--

How would you guys like to test out a theory for me?

Download a launcher (Nova, HoloLauncherHD or whatever you prefer) from the Play Store then using a file manager like Root Browser Lite, open the directory "/system/app" and delete Apex.apk. Also delete it from "/data/app" in case it updated itself. Remember to set your default launcher to the one you download, and copy all settings over.

If you unlock your screen and suddenly can't open an application. Tell me.
[HTC Sensation] Sleepy!:
I'd do that, but experimental 15/5 is boot looping too -_-

Looks like stable is gonna have to do, for now. :o
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
Both? :mad: I'll fix it before compiling the next build.
[HTC Sensation] Sleepy!:
Please put up an update on this thread once you do that. Thanks. :)
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
I will be sure to update you.

Also, if you do decide to install a new launcher and delete Apex -let me know about the app launch freeze if it happens.
[HTC Sensation] Sleepy!:
I've always used Nova and never had any freezes yet. Period.

Haven't deleted Apex, though.
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
...and you've just solved the bug I've spent the last 3-5 days fretting over. :laugh:

Literally did everything but replace the launcher... sigh.
[HTC Sensation] ninjasalad:
I'm running the May 10 build with nova and I still have the app launch issue, although I did delete apex
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
I'm running the latest test build (9PM today), and it hasn't become a problem; which is good news because it would've done so in the first 30 minutes of usage.
[HTC Sensation] spiderio:
I never experience hang apps or freeze when launching apps with nova - ever..

I'm using nova v2.1.1 right now

where is the latest test build??

Friday-17-May ??
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
If you're keeping count,

Dennis: 0

Ninjasalad: 1

Turns out that a lighter launcher helps, but eventually it does just freeze up.

It was built yesterday (16th). There'll be another build later today. Back to square one.

[HTC Sensation] MidnightDevil:
So... Dennis, switching launchers didn't work?
[HTC Sensation] shose:
Dennis

I am now on the 15-5-13 build(clean, no changes were made to it) , and been with it over a day

no problems so far, no heating too much and battery is fine(hope it will get even better)

my only problem which i also had earlier, is that i can not update the max frequency

it never saves my update.. I just dont really need 1560 mhz , and it just cost me more battery

all in all good work, hope this rom and kernel will improve more, and thanks for your work
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
Sorry.

I'll upload the code I'm using as soon as I can, or if you want to post your build in this thread? I'll add the download to the OP.

I will be sure to ask if they're able to lend a hand at some point. Camera app launches in my latest test build, but EGL is causing it to crash. I'll be correcting a few files in the next few days to make it work properly.

Thanks! It will hopefully be fixed in the next release.
[HTC Sensation] EfrainTrejo:
i literally just put slim bean on my nexus 7 and i saw this on the sensation forums :D

definitely will use it when its close to being stable :good:
[HTC Sensation] MidnightDevil:
Hi Dennis!

I was enjoying the experience until I plugged in my headphones and noticed the sound did not redirect to the headphones jack, it kept coming out from the external speaker.

I flashed AwesomeBeats and ACID mod, so I'm not sure if could be any of these mods that caused it, even though I used them in other CM10.1 versions.

So, does anyone has this issue with headphones?
[HTC Sensation] henrik.dk:
Good ROM. slimbean does have some nice addon like notification tile cust.

Hope that will be in CM soon.
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
...well, it might just be you.

I'm aware of the audio routing problem.
[HTC Sensation] MidnightDevil:
I'm sorry, I missed that in the |op|.
[HTC Sensation] Hellmanor:
Sorry, I can't do much, my Internet provider has problem :(

As soon as it will be fixed I will try to help.

I tested many libs for cam fix, but with no help... I will look into logcat again.
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
It's not the libs!

I'm using all of Albinoman's/Team-Hydra's kernels and device trees so the problem isn't the libs or the kernel as Albinoman's CM10 build works fine.

The camera app almost works (preview works, I can see the camera is functioning) on my latest build but crashes with a EGL error. The problem lies in the 'frameworks' folder and EGL/GLES respectively.
[HTC Sensation] Hellmanor:
So it's probably framework-res.apk and/or framework.jar, because not many files there can have influence on camera
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
Yeah. 'Frameworks' compiles to make framework-res.apk and framework.jar, and basically controls the whole ROM (well sort of).

I'm uploading frameworks to github.

https://github.com/DennisBold/frameworks_base

https://github.com/DennisBold/frameworks_av

I'll upload the rest of it as fast as I can, when I'm free.
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
Audio routing fixed.

EGL errors fixed.

Camera fixed too (The Croods anyone?):

Latest build download in post #2
[HTC Sensation] ingram10:
Can't wait to try. Will download when I get home
[HTC Sensation] pushpann:
NICE..

Just Set up and ready to go.. All seems good as of now. Will report back after few hours..

EDIT:

Some custom hw button actions seem to be not working. I love feature to switch to last app. but it seems to be not working [In the last build it was working fine].
[HTC Sensation] MidnightDevil:
thanks manc:good:
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
I replaced some things with CyanogenMod code and corrected some myself, which is probably the cause. (Although... don't remember tweaking anything but hwui and opengl) I'll give it another lock but I'll need a little more detail to recreate the situation
[HTC Sensation] haifish9999:
Flashed last night and this build is awesome. Good job man. Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] Incredible_Culp:
Sweet! a SlimBean..

Ive contacted SlimBean awhile ago asking if they would develop for the Pyramid -- No reply.:(

A month or two later, here comes this one! :good:

Thanks :D

EDIT: I made the ROM and Gapps a little more 'slim' for my liking.. I'm looking forward to the SlimBean features :) - I'll be flashing in a minute and give feedback tomorrow ;)
[HTC Sensation] MidnightDevil:
Awesome! With headphones now working it's a kick ass rom!

Thanks a lot Dennis! :)
[HTC Sensation] gururoop:
loved this rom, especially the "really dark" option... just a small bug that's there in all cm 10.1 roms: the proximity sensor does not function properly, i.e. it turns off the screen when on call but does not disable it. therefore, your cheek would mess up the call anyway. it has something to do with sweep2wake. This bug was present in early builds by albinoman887 and nlj. they found a hack to solve the problem and it was fixed in their respective roms. but its still there in this rom.
[HTC Sensation] Quantum_Sensation:
The date for the changelog is not correct. Should not be 22/4
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
No. Afraid not. I'm sanitizing my build server and then re-fetching all source. Maybe starting from clean source might help a little, editing all over the place makes it harder to find the source of the problem.

No idea why SuperUser just crashes a few seconds after a boot. If you're using Kernel Tuner, set it to use an init.d script instead. It'll set your CPU frequency on boot.
[HTC Sensation] Sleepy!:
I'm back on CM10.1... all the Slim builds after 3/5 just gave me boot loops like I said before.

If you're doing a clean compile, please look into this issue too.

I'm currently using Albinoman's 17/5 CM10.1 without any issues yet.
[HTC Sensation] spiderio:
Strange.. I'm using build 15 may for 3 days without any problems

And good battery
[HTC Sensation] spiderio:
It's TPI n 4 days without Poblems that other user mentions

No lag, no app freeze...

Everything works perfect

Here what I do after I install this rom, 4 days before...

I Change few line on init.d slim

echo "1000" > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_expire_centisecs;

echo "500" > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs;

echo "8192" > /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes;

echo "0" > /proc/sys/vm/oom_kill_allocating_task;

echo "0" > /proc/sys/vm/panic_on_oom;

I installed crossbreeder, and hardswap tweak

Change build.prop for window.manager from 150 to 250

Change gps.conf for my country

Edit zzkernel with my own settings

Like GPU to 300

Readahead to 4096 and others
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
I've just gone back and clean flashed all previous test builds. They work fine.

They run using Albinoman's kernel, so I don't understand what could be causing it. However, I will delve further into it but I need to know what you flashed.

Thanks. I'll take these into account when releasing my next build. Only have to fix the Camera/EGL and we're set for a good, quick and buttery smooth ROM.
[HTC Sensation] spiderio:
Does the camera has hdr function?? Like elelinux??

Oke.. It's been a better rom now in my opinion

Oh one more thing, i use nova as default launcher
[HTC Sensation] Sleepy!:
Three test builds: 15/5, 16/5 am & 16/5 pm.

And the stable release from 10/5.

All fresh installs.

Multiple times.

All had boot loops.
[HTC Sensation] spiderio:
Try full wipe before...

And what firmware are you on?
[HTC Sensation] Sleepy!:
Wiped everything but the SD each time.

It's not the firmware. My last stock ROM was T-mo ICS.
[HTC Sensation] gururoop:
[MENTION=4732064]DennisBold[/MENTION]: just waiting for an awesome update that fixes the frozen launcher issue. i hope u have figured out what's wrong by now. ur rom is awesome.
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
I'm compiling a version that I'm going to release as a test build. Everything but the camera should work. Anything that requires EGL will also most likely fail to work properly, or be a little buggy at best.
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
Next test build. It comes with Nova launcher as standard now. I may add Apex too, so you can choose and remove the other.

[HTC Sensation] gururoop:
so this test build doesn't have a proper working camera? anyway, its my fault for not reporting this but this bug has been there since the first build. every time i turn on the usb storage, the phone automatically restarts. after restart, the usb storage can be activated normally. i have attached logcat for your reference.
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
Yeah, I know. I've been looking into this a lot, and there's no real solution that comes to mind or what to tackle. I need a kernel dmesg, to know why it's rebooting, however I do recommend to all that you do a full wipe due to the changes between the last build and this one.

The logcat helps a little. Thank you very much!
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
I'll consider adding this as a request. First I have to actually fix the Camera application!
[HTC Sensation] gururoop:
[MENTION=4732064]DennisBold[/MENTION]: I won't be able to test the latest test build coz I need the camera on almost daily basis.. however, just a question comes to my mind.. if the launcher really was the culprit then how come there is no issue on 7th May test build? I have been using this build without any issues and regularly updating apex as and when released... and I have dirty flashed 7th May build over a later test build (8th or 9th May I don't remember) and till date haven't faced a single issue with apex launcher... just shared so that we don't run after wrong solutions...
[HTC Sensation] testuser0072:
Hi Dennis, also email client disappeared from your latest test builds...don't forget about this ;) About USB storage bug... I remember that before my phone reboot occasionally when I undervolt too much, so I remove undervolting script and problem gone. And thanks for fixing camera :)

BTW: SlimTeam updated SlimGapps, so my updated SlimGapps 4.2.2 build 5.5 here. I don't see any important changes except name, but I updated some libs. Anyway please update your links Dennis.
[HTC Sensation] L.N.X:

[HTC Sensation] Incredible_Culp:
Just reporting back since the Friday May 10th test build...

Flawless.

Everything is still going smooth, and fast.

Havent gotten to catch up on the thread in the past week, but ive seen some comments on the launcher -- Ive been using Apex for months now, maybe close to a year now. and never had a hang up.. I deleted (i forgot what the name was) the launcher that first came on this ROM and put my apex apk in replace of it until Dennis made apex the stock one, and i havent messed with it since.

Nova doesnt give me all the options i want (havent tried to use it again after experiencing Apex, so im sure it updated) but im perfectly content with the build im using. no freezes, FC's, or lags, etc..

Everything works on my end. im using the Friday May 10th test build, with sultan kernel and turbo boost.
[HTC Sensation] .TanTien:
Very smooth ROM! I like it a bit more than CM10.1. Thanks for porting it over!
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
Launcher wasn't the culprit.

I had changed so much, and edited far too many things. When I had to go back and figure out the cause, I just couldn't find it so assumed it was the launcher. I re-synced source and instead of mass editing so much, I'll edit only the crucial things. Re-writing whole files wasn't a good idea to begin with, and doing so just added more problems.

Updating links now.

I forgot to add the Email package. I'll add it now and it'll be in the next build.

Many thanks.

Amazing. The "S" weirds me out though. :eek:

Nonetheless, amazing though.

I like Apex too, just offers so much more than Nova does and over all how fluid Apex is; it seems like a no brainier to me.

The latest test-builds are faster and smoother, albeit without a Camera yet.
[HTC Sensation] Incredible_Culp:
Smoother and faster..?? Cant be possible! haha :o

Camera doesnt work? Thats an odd issue lol :silly:

Ill wait to update when the camera is workin :D
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
It's a bit ironic. To fix the ROM. I had to re-fetch all the source, which basically fixed everything, but broke the camera. To fix the camera I might have to wreck the ROM again.^*(an explanation is below, if you want more detail. Just look for the "^*") In short basically, I'm back to my initial releases plus a few edits, well most of the edits I've made. It's basically smoother, minus when you get to the EGL parts of the ROM. It lags a bit.

I'll fix the Camera today hopefully, and I can carry on building.

Also, a quick notice. I have to work on a project that involves me and a friend, and since he's kinda important. I can't put it off. I've done small things, but I really need to give the project my all right now. I also have to help another friend repartition and restructure his computers, setup networking and various other things. In short, here's what I aim to do this week; after the camera is fixed, I'll work on high priority bugs such as fixing the audio properly, fix the soft reboots with the SDCard etc. I know I didn't plan this week well, and I know that this means less time talking to you guys about things. I really am so sorry. However that's all I have time for this week. Feel free to post and PM me, but I can't promise a reply. If you can find time to logon to the IRC chat -I'll be there for a quick (and I do mean quick) chat according to time in the UK. In other words, no chats at 6AM.

^*The source is linked so I have to carefully edit the bits or risk breaking more. Last time I rewrote whole files (including rewriting/editing the linked files) in attempt to fix non-working parts, and it worked for a while until I updated the main parts of the ROM and that broke things. Not knowing which parts affected what, meant I couldn't undo the changes. (Stupid me)
[HTC Sensation] testuser0072:
Dennis camera working on your 19May test build, I dirty flashed over 18May, however no 16:9 mode.
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
Working on it.

Done:

Camera fixed (turns out I fixed it yesterday -thanks for the reminder testuser0072).

Headset now works after a reboot (don't have to unplug and reconnect).

Added option to launch music application on headset connect.

Replaced default wallpaper with a Nexus 4 one.

Found out what's been causing the soft reboots when you turn on usb storage (not a ROM problem guys, I'll explain more later and huge thanks to all your logcats, it made a huge difference in the end).

Fixed the KCM file (Now using FULL instead of QWERTY, I may switch back).

Need to do:

Add back Camera resolutions.

Tweak slightly.

Add back Apex (sorry, it's just better guys).

Replace lock screen handle.

Add back proximity sensor fix.

Disable fast charge by default (I'll compile it though).

--Edit--

Compiling a test now, only thing left to add is the proximity sensor fix.
[HTC Sensation] spiderio:
You RRRRRRRRRROCK!!!!!!!!!!

Awesome updates...

need fast charge update badly :D:D

How to make lock screen handle back to aosp?

I love the default with no slim logo?
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
Try the latest test build. Has everything but the proximity sensor fix. Edit 99kernel to enable fastcharge, or use kernel tuner.

(SlimBean-DennisBold-EXP-Monday20May2013-0300PM-BST.zip)

--EDIT--

Clean flash. Left overs will really mess things up.

Delete these folders from your SDCard:

.android_secure

Android

[HTC Sensation] testuser0072:
This is slimbean rom, so logo slim on lockscreen is ok. I like it and I want it :)
[HTC Sensation] spiderio:
it's matter of preference.. no offence

just like music, everybody has different taste

so is there a way to change it?

just give me link, I will do it my self..
[HTC Sensation] testuser0072:
Yes spiderio, I agreed. I like slim logo on lockscreen, just don't want permanently change it to default, so Dennis if you can let the choice please for people who want default logo...I think that this will be democratically ;)

BTW: SlimTeam again updated SlimGapps. I update SlimGapps 4.2.2 build 5.x as well, but I think that 'll leave my package slimmer without some new Google apps (Hangouts, Music) which everybody can install from market if needed. Dennis update links again please ;)
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
Try not to argue over this. I'm going to be blunt; the Slim team's lockscreen handle is bad, it's down right awful.

I replaced it for that reason, I just don't like it. Yes it's a ROM based on Slim source, and I'll give them all the credit they want. I'll even water mark the wallpaper if I need to, but I don't want to include something that makes the ROM look like a half done, overnight school project.

If you guys can find, or create a better lockscreen handle. Then yes, sure, I'll use that instead.

There is also no other way to change it, without decompiling or compiling from source with an edited lockscreen handle.

Updating links.

Thanks!

--EDIT--

Links Updated.
[HTC Sensation] Incredible_Culp:

quick report

1. it seems the sound is become quite again.. not like before..

2. and I can't get my data working again.. must add APNs manually..

3. Have strange hangs problems when opening apps..

Rolling back to 16May build... The most stable at least for me...

Awesome works... Thanks

[HTC Sensation] Moh Kohn:
Loving the latest build, very smooth. All the annoyances of recent builds seem to have gone, great job, thanks for your hard work.
[HTC Sensation] testuser0072:
Dennis I talk about slimbean logo on lock screen only...as someone said "it's just like a music, everybody has different taste" and for me is OK. Anyway it is your ROM, so it is your decision. Way to change logo is very simple without decompiling or compiling whole rom - just change one picture in framework-res.apk, I change many things before I flash finally ROM to my phone (sounds, scripts, some part of theme and content of system directory), because after flash I have less to do, so for me your decision about lockscreen is not really that important. I just want say thank you again for this great rom.
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
If the option for the Slim logo is really important -how about I meet you half-way?

I'm all for helping you guys, fixing bugs and taking requests. You have to understand though, I just think the Slim team could have spent more time on their images. I can see white pixels around the wallpaper, and the glow on their lockscreen handle is a little weird considering it's filled with black.

I had my friend make a 'slim' styled lock screen handle that can replace the current lock-screen handle.

Check out the OpenPDroid version if you want to have a look. Released... now! It's rebased on the current non-openpdroid ROM, with all the OpenPDroid stuff added.
[HTC Sensation] testuser0072:
All right Dennis but I repeat - for me slim logo is OK, that's not mean for everybody ;) Default lockscreen is OK as well, so don't worry, I can change when I need, no problem :)
