Nice. :D

Just because I don't know and am interested, what does same page merging do exactly?
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
Ksm is a merging feature for apps,etc that tend to generate many duplicate instances of memory calls. It merges these duplicates into one. Thats pretty much the basics of it. Its supposedly a memory saving feature. Cant really tell you how well it works as I haven't tested it versus without using it.
[HTC One V] ghostspectrum:
Got a possible Bug to report. Twice today ill get a notification that reads "SD card unexpectedly removed. Unmount SD card before removing to av..."

Is this my phone or...?
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
Not happening to me. Open your One V and pull out the sdcard with device powered down and reseat the sdcard in the slot. See if that helps. Blow it out. Could have dust in there or something. Also backup your sdcard to a pc just in case its going bad. I would personally back it up and reformat the card using windows,no quick format,check for errors.
[HTC One V] ghostspectrum:
Now I'm thinking it's time for a new phone. Those SD card problems, and the charging problems which I can now confirm is the phone not the charger.
[HTC One V] vic126:
waiting on my z10 leaving android. rooted one v and desire 601 anyone interested?
[HTC One V] mrcorey:
Nice feature list, Curtis. I want to try this one but I'm away from my PC, visiting family and I can't port it right now. Maybe Mame will beat me to it. Lol. Gonna try on my phone with es file explorer...

Sent from a phone that's running a rom
[HTC One V] MameTozhio:
maybe :P

the only thing is my absolute crap upload speed D:
[HTC One V] mrcorey:
Despite a slow dsl connection and no pc, ported basic. Very smooth. I already miss your Xperia hacks. I may have to port it, too.

Since [MENTION=5238590]MameTozhio[/MENTION] has ported both, I'll snag that enhanced version.

Maybe a bug. The camera seems to fc and show anr on some settings
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
Tip: change your dpi to 200 and really enjoy it. Not sure why or maybe it's just me..but its running better at 200 than it did at 230 or 240.
[HTC One V] ghostspectrum:
It does seem to run better at 200

When I move apps to SD using rom toolbox I don't see them in the app drawer after reboot. Does anyone else have this problem?
[HTC One V] vinnievegas:
Ok. Moved them back to internal them moved them back to SD using native app settings. Now they are visible but experia launcher crashes at pretty much every reboot but all is good after clicking ok.
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
The rom handles apps 2 sdcard fine with only a minor soft reboot when connecting to usb storage via pc,after the reboot storage works fine. But I do not suggest moving the pre-installed/xperia apps to sd. they are modded apps that are normally in the system partition of the xperia device they came with and are to an extent dependent on the launcher and were never designed to be used from storage. so dont move them.
[HTC One V] vinnievegas:
Didn't move any system apps. These are the apps I moved.
[HTC One V] ghostspectrum:
Any reason why same page merging seems to turn itself off?
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
If same page is turning it self off its the boot.img kernel. Im running the newer hboot and boot kernel lilrob posted. Same page is working in it. You'll need to update to latest hboot in order to use the feature. As for the apps2sd issue,I suggest installing the apps normally and then moving them using the system method and not rom tool box. Do a full uninstall of the apps,reboot to recovery and wipe cache,dalvik caxhe then reinstall and move using system >apps> setting for each individual app.
[HTC One V] Mamadanz:
Thank you to all!

Thanks to everyone posting in this thread for your insights. I got my "new to me" One V about two weeks ago. I had rooted my old Wildfire S and enjoyed one of the Slim Bean roms on it, and have been looking forward to rooting my One V and getting back to a slim environment. With the holidays, I had to wait for a quiet day to unlock and root my phone and then get my Bean on.

I read through this entire thread twice to make sure I knew what to expect. Many thanks to all and especially to Curtis for his continued work on this ROM an his assistance to not just me, but all of us!

I am happily playing now and making my phone truly my own.

Thank you all again - as I go back into "lurk" mode. ;)
[HTC One V] ghostspectrum:
It's been a fun ride.

I ordered a refurbished LG Optimus L9 the other day. Should be here by this week. Think I'll play around with it for a week and then see what can be done on it.

Anyone used it before? Tips?
[HTC One V] reV17:
LG devices tend to have a locked bootloader that's a ***** to circumvent. Bliss made loki which is a patch to bypass that restriction but I'm not sure if the Optimus L9 is on it. Check the forums to see how much development it has.

? Oppo Find 5 ?
[HTC One V] ghostspectrum:
Thanks, will do.

What's the purpose of a company locking the bootloader? What does that achieve?
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
Updates for both roms posted in OP along with new screen shots. A lot of fixes and new additions.
[HTC One V] MameTozhio:
I have some layout bugs on status bar.. specifically when on wifi, while showing the in/out wifi symbol the status bar icons glitch a bit.
[HTC One V] rzarectha:
yep, i can confirm this, when the arrows for inbound/outbound trafic apper the wi-fi icon moves sideways a bit. it's really not an issue, just a minor glich.

one suggestion, i said this before in the GSM thread, i'll leave this here too, maybe you could remove the "OTA" thing in settings, since there's no ota for this rom and also it gives a FC (obviously ^^)

other than that, i'm really happy with this rom. atm i can call it without any hesitation : simply the best

cheers!
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
odd about the wifi icons. can you post a screen of two of the issue? dont need you to replicate the actual moving of the icon. i never did edit the actual wifi icons for data. but i think it may be related to my editing of the cdma related icons. i will post a system ui apk later with edited icons thats flashable. will need a few testers.

Got the related icons edited..making zips now. will post them shortly for both roms. zips will be replaced next release with fixes in the rom set.

Edit:

Two flashable zips to hopefully resolve issues with wifi icon set getting glitchy.

Slim Bean Advanced : http://d-h.st/Q7X

Slim Bean Basic : http://d-h.st/JLG

Enter recovery,wipe cache/dalvik-cache,flash zip and reboot. Check your icons. I need feedback.
[HTC One V] sellersj27:
I flashed the advanced zip and noticed no changes, although, I could care less if the data arrows are centered.
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
I'll just change their colors to another color then it wont matter about alignment..that or remove them completely.
[HTC One V] sellersj27:
If you need another framework tested, let me know!
[HTC One V] ghostspectrum:
Phone came in today. Pretty snazzy :) thanks for everything Curtis and everyone in this thread, it's been fun!
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
Added new fixes for both slim basic and advanced to resolve the gltichy data icon sets in both roms. Links added to OP. Flash in recovery. Both zips can be used by both gsm and cdma users.
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
No, I suggest one of the stock sense roms like jmz's stock rom,etc for that. It has the first time activate.
[HTC One V] bornagainpenguin:
I've been meaning to ask - what impact does doing the removals you recommend in the first post have on installed paid apps? I have a few that I can't give up and if removing stuff causes them to stop working that'd reduce the functionality of the phone for me.
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
Would depend on the app and how it posts updates to you. And many use google services to do that. Some do not. By removing those listed apps any user needs to know that they are pretty much breaking their link to all google services like play store and all that it provides like downloads,app updates and more,backing up and syncing to calendar,contacts and bookmark services,etc. For me,I do not need any of google services and by removing these apps in combination with the use of turbo boost..my one v becomes a more efficient in every way. But users can keep these apps,use turbo boost and fair pretty good. Its up to you to experiment and see what is best for you.
[HTC One V] bornagainpenguin:
Not so much worried about updates as I am whether or not apps and games I paid for will refuse to run or accuse me of piracy because they can't access the services. I can pull updates from my Nook if need be.
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
You could install the rom,then remove the listed apps,install your paid for apps..see how they function. I do not think you will see any issues. If you do,you do not have to keep that install. Just revert back and keep the google related items. Ive owned root explorer for some time and it never gives me issues.
[HTC One V] RFrancis:
Curtis please take a look at this... I installed the basi slim bean booted up and installed an app called whatsapp there is a function to send and receive voice notes I can send the notes fine however when i receive one and press play It wont play at all. I installed a couple of other roms and it worked perfectly fine... could you give ms some insight
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
Yeah will take a look for you. I suspect it is an issue with voice functions in the rom. Let me look through the rom and see if any thing is missing or isnt working properly. Ill post when I find out more.
[HTC One V] bornagainpenguin:
Okay, I finally had time to test out removing bits only to discover most of my games were screaming piracy at me resulting in a roll back to my back up. Really made a difference in memory use, but not useful to me because of the trade off. If someone had a big investment in the Amazon store perhaps it would be a good way to go?
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
I suspect the piracy warnings etc were related to the apps not being able to make their usual connections to the google applications they relied on. Now the best alternative is to just leave the google stuff and enjoy. I have been testing Turbo Boost Mod with this rom using triple swap and NOTHING uninstalled and am getting pretty good results so far. I suggest trying Turbo Boost out. Install rom,set it up the way you like it,reboot in to recovery and install Turbo Boost Mod. It has three options..single,dual and triple swap. I am using triple swap and have had absolutely no issues using advanced rom with pretty much everything installed except google calendar and its sync adapter along with contacts sync adapter.

Edit: As for the voice play back issues using whats app. I can not say a fix I am working on will resolve the issue but I am adding all items from slim AIO that have anything to do with voice recognition,speech etc..will post soon and you all can give it a test drive. Seems everything other than voice dialer works. It crashes after a dial tone is heard. I believe that is a slim roms release issue though.
[HTC One V] bornagainpenguin:
This is what I ended up doing once I rolled back to my backup. I was just being greedy because I wanted that extra 20-30 megabytes of free ram I (really did) get back removing the Google bloatware. Great rom, thanks!

PS: Greenify helps quite a bit also!
[HTC One V] xecutionkrk:
i need the correct kernels, nothing boots
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
The kernel in ROM is for old boot/radio users,updated users can use the kernel linked in op. You should be able to boot up on either depending on whether or not you updated your device. If not,redownload ROM. Your download may be corrupt.
[HTC One V] xecutionkrk:
well quite strange, I tried the random kernel uploaded by the in this thread, and it worked.
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
Edit: Update will be coming near the weekend. Consolidating the rom set.
[HTC One V] sellersj27:
I was getting that urge to flash something new, which seems to always result in frustration and lagging and ultimately ends up back at the ol' faithful slimbean!
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
Well I think users will find basic and advanced updates covering about all of their widget needs in regards to weather, time,music,email and more. Voice search added,return to a smaller and more efficient play store that only updates Google settings and not the app it self,pretty handy calculator widget that replaces the app itself..my main goal was to give basic users all the same goodies without having to use the xperia launcher. Basic is coming in around 185 mb with everything. Advanced will pretty much stay where it is for the most part except with a few minor things and addition to voice search and rollback on play store. I will be suggesting the use of turbo boost mod set on triple swap.. only in the event that a user wants to use either ROM with everything left intact with no uninstalls. I can report that leaving everything installed using turbo boost mod set on triple swap works great for me. I have not forgotten the whatsapp issue for those that use it. I'm thinking it could be a codec issue. I will test the app out over the next few days to isolate the problem.

Edit: The issue with whatsapp appears to be something happening across slim rom in general,whether it be slimbean,etc..rom pushers are calling a "buggy app issue" in other words..we dont know what the hell it is and wont be working on it..blaming it on the developer even though the app is working fine on other roms including stock...so go figure. a little laziness in rom support?? got me..i will still add in what i can to attempt a fix but i cant offer much hope on it working.
[HTC One V] mrcorey:
I wanted to thank you for this nice ROM. it's the one I go back to (after porting to gsm, of course). I've had charging issues with my hov so I'm selling it to recover what I just spent on my new phone.

This is one of the most polished roms I've seen and it gets better with every update.

Sent from my Moto G
[HTC One V] RFrancis:
I am very appreciative on the whatsapp report... if slimbean resolves it and you are still around please do chime in. Thank you
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
Ive looked through the rom and cant find any reason why whatsapp wont work right. In fact it worked well in previous versions of slim bean before 3.1. So I am just going to include all proper voice recording support and see if that makes a difference. Ill post new rom over the weekend.
[HTC One V] ihor2284:

[HTC One V] ihor2284:
О_о, I already thought that the development stopped! :cool:
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
Roms updated. Did not have time to update screen shots,but will. Will edit the OP with changes when time permits,within a day or so. But a brief run down...standard has a ton of goodies...xperiaized version had some useless crap removed like face recognition to slim its size down..added a few new widgets to it that are smaller in size and do the samething as those removed. I think you guys and gals will enjoy both roms. I suggest using Turbo Boost Mod with triple swap using both. I suggest it whether or not you decide to use everything and delete nothing or if you just decide to trim it down. It helps greatly either way.
[HTC One V] sellersj27:
Running the Xperia version with turbo boost triple swap... All recommended size partitions. This is definitely the fastest my hov has ever run. Thanks Curtis!
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
you're welcome. give standard a try also. its on par with everything that xperia has.
[HTC One V] vinnievegas:
Will google calendar work on this rom?i haven't been able to get it to work with any slim yet?
[HTC One V] thebestiam:
Works with latest hboot? Also is it fast?
[HTC One V] vinnievegas:
I've had the latest hboot since its been out. Maybe I should create a whole new google account in case my current account is messed up in some way.
[HTC One V] geo626:
Tried installing both Standard and Xperia but I am stuck with "Android is upgrading..." "starting apps"

[HTC One V] thebestiam:
So.. i just flashed it and it keeps rebooting.
[HTC One V] geo626:
fixed it. The Kernel did it.

[MENTION=5339231]thebestiam[/MENTION], try to flash the alternate kernel in the first post, it might solve your boot loop problem
[HTC One V] thebestiam:
Got it, Thanks.

help on the voicemail icon, when I click it it redirects me to Virgin Mobile hotline

Go into settings, voicemail, and setup and change it to your 10 digit number.

Open phone,settings and voicemail setup..add your phone number as your voicemail number. by default it is set to customer service number.
[HTC One V] geo626:
Got it! Awesome Rom! Using the Xperia version. I was close to throwing my phone until I used your rom. So far so good! I changed the density to 240, now my apps UI looks better.

Keep up your great work Curtis!
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
Updated screens. Screens are of Standard rom. Cleaned up OP.
[HTC One V] RFrancis:
Was the whatsapp issue resolves by adding the missing audio modules ? Thank you
[HTC One V] mcgi5sr2:
Hi,

firstly thanks for keeping up this rom! I'm about to try converting the latest standard version back to gsm to test on my phone. I was wondering if you had any extra tips on build.prop setttings? I'm just starting to dip my toes in, and mean no offense if you don't want me doing this. I have no plans on posting it up, just for the learns and lols.

regards
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
hi. feel free to convert and share if you wish. as for build.prop for gsm,just use the ones from the older ports back to gsm and you should be fine.
[HTC One V] MameTozhio:
I'm updating mine soon..
[HTC One V] mcgi5sr2:
Unless I come up with something genuinely useful then I'll leave it to you MameTozio. It worked really well though, I also added in new hosts from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1916098 , and tried out super combi performance, which didn't break it. I'm still undecided about all the turbo boosters, as I rarely notice the difference. I am a bit slow tho so as long as the phone works faster than me :)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2360670

seems as good as any other I've tried.

Only change I felt I wanted to make was switching back to Holo HD launcher, and adding the original calendar screen widget (which I'm still trying).
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
just download inverted slimbean aio addon package and grab the inverted calender set from it to get back your widget. and i will leave the porting thing up to you guys. didnt know mame was still active. as for turbo booster. i can assure you,there will be a noticeable difference when you use these two roms with it and without it. i would say go a full day using everything without turbo booster then download it the next day,enter recovery,wipe caches and install it..instant change in speed,lag,and many other issues. i tell you what is really needed. now that s-off has been accomplished,we need someone to reallocate actual ram to increase that measley 512 to something more realistic.

I'll see what else I can monkey with over the weekend, and get back to you.
[HTC One V] Mamadanz:
I don't know if I've done something wrong or not - but I'm not getting screens that are looking like the screen shots. I understand the screen shots are of the standard version. I've actually tried both versions and I'm not getting anything even close.

Here's what I've done...go into recovery...using TWRP - I wipe cache, dalvik, factory, and system. I then flash the rom. I go into fastboot and flash the boot.img and reboot.

In Standard - I do have different fonts - but not much other different.I definitely don't have any reddish like the screen shots (I'm still blue). In the Xperia one, the fonts look pretty much the same as what I was using before (the Advanced).

Should I have downloaded something else? Am I doing something wrong?

I'm only a slight step above pure noob - so any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you! :)
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
the screen shots were showing a wallpaper i use from time to time that's not in the rom. as for xperia,there were minor changes that fixed data icons, added a replacement calculator that is a widget vs an entire app,and added calendar widget, plus removed unused face recognition stuff in the rom that added a considerable amount of size to rom for something we just can't use. but other than that it was left as is. the biggest improvement it saw was rom size reduction after install..a total of about 25 mb space saved after install. standard saw most of the improvements. alternate month calendar widget instead of the useless agenda widget in the base calendar (others can get back the old calendar and widget by downloading the aio package on slimroms website),clock and weather widget app,xperia walkman compatible widget that works on non xperia launchers,fixes for data icons,removal of face recognition,new fonts,browser fixes for improperly sized icons, along with voice search and hopeful fix for whatsapp..tried to add same for xperia but it kept crashing..xperia launcher issues i think..
[HTC One V] Mamadanz:
Thanks Curtis for clearing that up for me. I had the thought that the red might be a wallpaper (not part of the ROM) but wasn't sure. But I'm still confused - I can't seem to find widgets - so I have no calculator. I see it when I go to Settings>Apps - but other than that, I can't access it...Same with the weather widget.Seems I can't figure out how to get to any widgets for that matter.

On another thought - I did add in the TurboBoost that you talked about earlier - used all the recommended sizes and wheee - my phone is zippingly fast - so thank you for that tidbit too! :)
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
To set your widgets just long press on the particular launcher screen you wish to add a widget and the menu will appear allowing you to select which widgets you would like to add.

[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
I have no issues with you posting your port. But I would create a new thread for it versus posting it in Mame's port thread.
[HTC One V] vinnievegas:
Very happy with this rom. Turboboost works nicely and so happy with working calendar. Thanks Curtis1973
[HTC One V] bornagainpenguin:
I'm running up against the limitations of the phone's RAM again and the idea of stripping most of the Google bloatware is becoming more and more attractive to me. As mentioned before when this came up, I have paid apps I'd hate to have to give up, so it becomes impractical to remove the bloatware if it also reduces functionality... Then I had a thought!

(Allow me to preface this with a disclaimer: I AM NOT ASKING FOR WAREZ! I AM ASKING ABOUT FEASIBILITY!)

Would it be possible to patch my paid apps to prevent them from accessing the Google Play Store or framework? I'm only talking about patching apps I own.
[HTC One V] mcgi5sr2:
If you change your hosts file you can effectively block apps from using certain google apps. As for actually patching the apks I think you would need the source and then recompile it yourself, unless you know smali code.
