Well it's bloatfree and completely smooth for me, but for that matter stock TW was running smoothly as well but I can't handle the pounds of bloatware. But it definitely should be.

Best thing to do is just make a backup of your stock rom, then follow the instructions on flashing. And then if you want to go back to stock, just restore your backup.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Floppy454:
I made a backup using TWRP I think, whatever QBking77 posted in his how-to video. So if I make a backup using that, and I restore that backup, it will restore to stock TW and not Slim?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Inline:
Yes, if you have made a backup on TWRP, and then you flash this (be sure to wipe the appropriate things before you do - follow the instructions), you will be on Slimbean, and then if for whatever reason you want to go back to Stock, boot into recovery, and restore the backup you made.

I can't get a gps lock, anyone else have this issue?

thekidd.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cordell12:
as of right now you'll need to go into menu --> System Settings --> Location Access --> UN-check WiFi and Mobile Networks Location

GPS will work fine this way, only draw back is Google Now will not pick up your Location :( Though other 3rd party apps will, including Maps :good:

CM has the same issue, well for me it does anyway. GPS is a little wonky on GS3 devices as well, there were some moving of things and a GPS update a few days ago that caused the GPS issues in GS3, not sure if they are related to GS4.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cris_epic:
I still can't get a lock while disabling that "/ mmm I really love this rom only thing that starting to get to me is gps not working and that when I'm not on wifi I have to be going into ChatON to check if I've gotten texts because it seems like it's not notifying me when I receive due to poor signal? Other than that I prefer this rom over anything

thekidd.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cordell12:
not sure if eveyone uses The Real Dark Slim, TRDS Toggle that darkens the ROMs UI (original slim feature ;) )

if so, in this build there is a Toggle that can be added to PIE or Nav Bar, this is "On the Fly" changing.

so if you are outside and need a brighter screen, the control is at you fingertips!

Test it out

Also, SMS/MMS texts over 160 can be set to either convert to MMS or split into multiple texts. You can select a value of when to convet, say 3 sections of 160, it will then become MMS. Or after 2 sections of 160, the choice is yours. It can even be set to always split. Personally my coverage is strong so I always convert to MMS.

There are a few changes to opt/telephony, what that means is 3G may or may not be better, those who have poor speeds, let me know <---this is purely testing, may be better or may be worse, idk you tell me :)

New build up http://d-h.st/CL2

You tried GPS Status? I assure you GPS does work, though I am not doubting your trouble with it, It Just does not work with the above quoted text enabled (wifi and network). Once UNchecking the above, open Navigation, not through Maps, but through the Old School Blue Nav Icon in app drawer. This will ask you to let Google use your Location, agree and you should be fine. I have also read where going to stock, use GPS Status to get a solid lock, for say 4 or 5 minutes. Then reboot into recovery and restore your nandroid of Slim. Make sure the WiFi and network is NOT checked and open GPS Status. You may have to open Navigation with the Blue Icon in app drawer first.

Rest assured all these little quirks will be worked out one by one.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mjs2011:
So far so good on the new build. I sent an MMS to myself and it worked just fine. I'm guessing it'll work if I send to other people as well.

Got GPS lock as well. 3g works. :good:

Whatever 3g tweaks you made, you definitely hit the spot!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cris_epic:
Woohoo I fixed my gps problem, I think the problem was when I flashed slim I forgot I had gps turned off on stock rom, so what I did was restore to.stock.backup uncheck wifi network gps and then open gps status and get a lock then I used goomanager to confirm recovery and then I restore to slim problem solved

thekidd.

Edit

The only thing still bad for me is 3g, can't get it to upload on speed test
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cordell12:
Awesome!

I found what is causing some of the GPS issue with WiFi and Network being checked. Its a app called Networklocation.apk so those who have root explorer or something go to system/app and rename it to Networklocation.apkbak and Google Now should show all cards correctly. However weather for dashclock still not working right. Will get this sorted out soon enough ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Floppy454:
Thank you for your help. So if I flash this ROM and want to only restore my apps, texts, settings, etc. I will only restore the "data" section of the TWRP backup, and if I want to restore everything completely to stock I restore System, Data, and Boot. Is that correct?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cordell12:
No, if you restore data from your TouchWiz nandroid to Slum Bean there will be major problems. However you can use a app like Titanium BackUp to back these things up, and once you have set up Slim you can restore them. I'm speaking if apps and possibly texts, not exactly sure if stock messaging app text will restore correctly or not.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mjs2011:
After running this ROM all day, I can say that I've run into zero problems whatsoever. Fabulous job!

Can you flash this room if you just did the sprint update?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cjwaggsrx8:
Rooms are super hard to flash on this phone man...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] genaro12543:
Lol rooms yeah maybe but not roms just back up wipe and install bam
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cordell12:
As long as you have your root/recovery after taking that update.

From you question you seem new to flashing, please read instructions from our website before just jumping in ;)

www.slimroms.net READ

the zip files are located in post 3 of this thread :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Floppy454:
After following the instructions in the last few posts, I still cannot get a GPS lock.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cjwaggsrx8:
Gotta be a network issue man.. I get a lock instantly on the latest build.. You obviously can get one on your stock nandroid right?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Floppy454:
Haha yeah I could, before my nandroid backup died on me for some reason. But that is an issue for a different time. It started when I flashed the ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] xxaddictedxx:
As long as the backup u made was before you flashed anything yes.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Floppy454:
My backup keeps failing whenever I try to restore it for some reason.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cordell12:
please take this to the recovery thread, my work has nothing to do with your back up failing. or submit a logcat while trying to get GPS lock, instructions are in my signature.

Is this version of Slim Bean for the I9505 or the Americam variants?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cordell12:
This version is for the "Sprint" variant only. Bad things will happen if you install on another version! :eek:

for other variants check the threads below:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] __NBH__:
Thanks forthe information. Mine is the UK i9505 version so unfortunately it doesn't look look I can use any of these versions.

Hopefully it will change soon as I used slim bean for ages on my s2 and loved the rom, it had all the features, options and the look that I liked.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mark.wayne:
This ROM has been superb for me over the past week. I went to visit family in Chicago, and everything worked out splendid. I was able to take some pictures at my cousin's wedding and didn't have any crashes or issues at all whatsoever. During my trip, I managed to flash the quick update to help resolve some data issues, and sure enough, I was now seeing traffic coming through on my apps over 3G.

That being said, I flashed this latest update today without much trouble - I did have screen flickering all of a sudden, but not after I disabled hardware overlays within the Developer Options as indicated in an earlier post.

Thoroughly enjoying this. :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cjwaggsrx8:
Goes to show you quads don't mean shiz.. This ROM flies!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] prbassplayer:
No means Benchmarks aren't worth crap lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Inline:
Just flashed the new update with a full wipe over the 5/9 build. I disabled Hardware Overlays, but I still get the screen flickering!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mark.wayne:
Quick question about the full wipe (apologies if this is terribly off topic) - when I perform what I think is a full wipe (factory reset, manual format of /system) within my particular recovery (oudhs, I think?) and perform a flash of this ROM, I notice that it seems to retain my WiFi info settings. Am I supposed to perform a format in particular steps? I wonder if my initial issues with the first version of this ROM was a result of having not started off as 'fresh' as I thought I had been.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] gershee:
when you sign into Google it restores the known wifi connections. it's not in your phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mark.wayne:
Ah- thank you. I must have completely overlooked that when I had flashed. Usually, I end up having to use some Google backup codes (I use two factor authentication with Google) that I previously generated since I never receive the text until authenticating. My eagerness to get started must have overshadowed the obvious signs while I happily tapped away.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cris_epic:
Hey I think every time you reboot it unchecks that option. This happend to me as well I just go in and check it's disabled to be sure.

Hopefully this helps
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Inline:
Word!!

Your absolutely right haha, just realized that. I had it checked at it stopped flickering and then I completely forgot I had rebooted and I didn't realize that's when it started happening again! I should have checked! Good call! Is it supposed to uncheck itself when you reboot or is that a bug!

Thanks though! :thumbup::cool:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cris_epic:
Idk if that's a bug tho, maybe Cordell can look into that, or better yet fix the screen flickering, other then that this Rom is super great, you just gotta know it's Lil tricks so it can work 100% haha glad I could help man :thumbup:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cordell12:
so the flickering, let me guess you use swipe keyboard?

if not when is it seen, what is running, app in use, than sort of info.

this was pretty big on the S3, there are a few ways I can shut them down, just need to know where they are appearing.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cris_epic:
Yes when I was using swype it would do it also on buzz launchers home screen, I'll try to trigger it to happen and I'll let you know,

Also seems like a clean install of 5/14 will fix data issues I'm having awesome 4g/3g speeds now
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] wojo797:
Clean install here of 5/14 but my lte is real weak..went from 12mbs on stock to 1.5 mbs with bb. Major screen flickering till i disabled hw overlays..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Nut_House:
Running a dirty flash of 5/14 over a clean install of the previous build. Not using the swipe keyboard and am still seeing the flickering. It's most evident in TiBu and Dolphin Browser although it happens infrequently on the home screen also. It seems much worse than the earlier builds, if that helps at all.

Interestingly, once I unchecked "disable overlays" to do some testing for this report the problem did not reappear. Had to perform a reboot before it started flickering again. Don't know if it means anything, just thought it worth reporting.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cris_epic:
That's odd, maybe restoring a nandroid of stock then with goomanager flash recovery and then clean install 5/14 will helP

I flashed this yesterday and it stuck me in Tablet mode and I couldn't get my DPI down to normal levels. Any thoughts?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] alongg4:
There are several threads on the subject and I have tried them all. Eventually, I found 1 method that actually works!!!

After it worked I took the 2 roms available for the device today(Default,iOS) and gave them full root permissions with camera working on both and no flickering screen!!!

First, I would like to point out that the process is not simple and requires the following:

H2000+ device

Windows 7(PREFFERED) or windows XP

About 1 hour

Let's begin the guide!

1.Download the following .rar folder(at the end) and the .zip folder.

2.Extract EVERYTHING except Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip.

3.turn off the phone and remove the battery.

4. connect the phone to the computer(without the battery) via USB.

5.An installation of drivers will start and fail.

6.search for "device manager" on the start menu and open it.

7.You will see a device called "mt65xx Preloader", right-click it and press "update software...".

8.Click on "locate software"/"I have disk"(depends on your OS).

9.browse to where you extracted the Hero-driver.zip and confirm.

10.this should install the drivers-if it didn't send me a PM and I will help you.

11.Unplug the phone,plug in the battery and turn on the device.

12.connect as USB storage and copy the Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip to your SD card(if you don't know which one is your SD card copy the file to both locations).

13.remove the battery, WAIT 10 SECONDS,and plug the phone back.

14.Open the SP Flash tool.

15. click on "Scatter-loading" and locate the scatter that is located at the h2000rootedbootimagenew folder.

16.Click download,wait 5 seconds and connect your phone WITHOUT A BATTERY.

17.It should take a minute and then show you a picture of a green circle, IF IT DIDN'T-YOU DIDN'T INSTALL THE DRIVERS PROPERLY.

18.Disconnect your device, plug in the battery and turn it on.

19.Remove the battery.

20. Click on "Scatter-loading" and locate the scatter that is located at the CWM H2000+ folder.

21.Click "Download",wait 5 seconds and connect your device WITHOUT A BATTERY INSIDE.

22.After it is done(green circle) you should turn on your device.

23.IF THE CAMERA IS NOT WORKING/THE PHONE FLICKERS FOLLOW THE NEXT INSTRUCTIONS, IF NOT-YOU ARE FULLY ROOTED WITH CWM RECOVERY!

23.Download one of the rooted ROMs that I created.

24.place the ROM on your SD Card(if you don't know which one is your SD card copy the file to both locations).

25.In your phone go to "Settings->About phone->Reboot Recovery" and click ok.

26.Use your volume buttons to navigate to "install zip from sdcard->choose zip from sdcard->Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip"(that you put there in the beginning of the tutorial).

27.repeat stage 26 and now choose the rom that you downloaded.

28.After it is done click on "reboot system now".

29.DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

## I uploaded the necessary tools for the installation but if you want the ROMs send me an email to alonganor@walla.co.il and I will give you the links.

### I tested everything myself and I can verify that everything works!

#### I had to split the necessary tools into 4 parts because there is a 8mb limit for uploding.

Thank you!!!!!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SethPDA:
Hello. I've seen you started to make roms for H2000+.

I have a problem with it. It freezes but in a weird way. The screen goes on for ex when I'm in a game, the game keeps running, but the phone does not react to any type of input. Nothing happens when I touch the screen, I can't even shut down the phone, only by removing the battery. It's not rooting or rom problem, bcuz my friend ordered the exact same phone and it still freezes like this. I've seen that many times, it freezes when I try to exit apps, and sometimes just randomly freezes but when it freezes nothing can be done.

Is there a new kernel or something that I can try out so I can see if it will work? Thanks.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] alongg4:
Help with Hero h2000+

Did you try any of my ROMs? I fixed several issues in the kernel such as the usage of the rear camera. I am currently using my ROM (iOS UI-I am currently running the Beta of the update for this rom) I don't have any of the problems you are talking about.

I highly recommend you to install my Default UI ROM.All I have done to the ROM is replacing the kernel and fixing some kernel issues and it is the fastest and most stable ROM of them all.

Please try and then send me an email to alonganor@walla.co.il to tell me if it worked.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MrCabana:
Any chance there'll be a JB ROM available soon for Hero H2000+ ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] alongg4:
unfortunatly, this is impossible.

since the kernel source code of the h2000+ hasn't been officialy published it is impossible to create a rom that isn't android 4.0.4 based.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] ProvRobbie:
I have recently been converted to the XDA from a P900 and the difference is amazing!

However, when I synch my database down to the XDA, UK numbers are sent in the format;

+44 (0161) 123456

So when I press on a contact, it dials a wrong number. :evil:

I can't tell the XDA not to dial the international portion of the number....

o2 very unhelpful, as are Microsoft.

Does anyone know of a fix for this?

Robbie
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] SP:
Hey Rob,

Usually when you dial a number via cell line the number is comprised of country code + area code + subscriber number, so the number you provided is ok & you will not be charged as for international calls even though you are using the international prefixes

But if you still want to use short numbers then you will need to store the short numbers in the contacts

Is this what you were asking about?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] hartmut:
Hi Robbie,

don´t use the leading "0" in the area code if you use country code.

Here is what I did, While on cleanrom ace v4.8 I flashed a radio patch that was from imnuts I believe, then I switched to meanbean ice 1.02, I reflashed the radios again to be sure it had them, but I still dont like that I dont know where to go to check.
