I cant find this option, (using the latest build), there is no menu when pressing the 'menu' soft key. The only way to access the camera setting is via the right circle but there is no option mentioned above. Help please?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] HardCorePawn:
For about the 736254992nd time...

There are features that have not been ported yet... 4.4 was NOT a minor update... So a LOT of stuff is yet to be forward ported and is currently "missing"...

And to answer the next round of questions... "No, we have no idea when they will be ported"...

Seriously guys... Start Fekking reading!

I loaded SlimSaber Dec 21 again over SlimKat 1.7. This time I have no problem with "Preparing SDCard' notification. Now testing for lag build up over time while I wait for the next SlimKat. There is nothing that matches the Slim in terms of functionality. Just checked out latest Cyanfox, BAM, LiquidSmooth. My current policy is to keep SlimKat's latest backed up and trying out other's from that base.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zkibz:
Thanks for this. Downloading now. :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sun90:
with the built in superuser app u will have issue in installing V4A so u can use the 'Update-Supersu 1.85.zip' att below, flash the same from recovery and then reboot and open it and update 'Su-binary' then reboot and after that install V4A and it wrks for u :)

I did the same and V4A is wrking fine for now :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] d_Schizzo:
Thanks for your answers. Hopefully it will be fixed somehow in near future.

Its close to be a dealbreaker if there is no incognito mode, offline sites and browser sync for me.;)

Apart from that Slim(saber)kat is very awesome Rom. Thank you guys!

I'm coming from pound rom, after 24 hours of usage i can say that this is a great rom, ready for daily usage... excellent work!

The only annoying thing is the extended notification drawer that not disappears when press back soft key! This is the only KK based rom with this issue, so i hope it can be fixed soon. Anyway thanks for this great rom.

I update from 4.3 to 4.4 and I backed up all my apps+data using titanium backup. Now, I will restore them and when I see, some are in red font colors and it shows my previous slim version. Is it okay to restore them even if its from previous version?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sun90:
Try restoring only the 'Apps' not its 'Data' and see :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gippy2:
NO not data

Any suggestion???

4.2 to 4.3 was a minor update compared to 4.4 which is a major one for u, so install only apps not its data :)

Hi Gippy,

If you're open to trying a new browser on the pc, you should try out maxthon. It has very good cloud sync functionality and their phone browser's up there with the others. Your only gripe might be their extensions, but even those are being developed at a reasonable pace. I just realized I OT'd - sorry
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Computoncio:
Just use ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter.apk from slim gapps 4.3 and push to /system/priv-app and fix permissions.

Reboot, go to google accounts and enable browser sync.

So where is the option to save bookmarks in phone version...?

Cos when I left 4.3.1 so did my chrome browser menu ..For now Ive setup chrome to phone and that should do me fine ..In fact in a way its better cos I dont always want whats on the pc, on the phone ..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rachanta:
Just press menu from previously enabled navbar and you get a pop up list. There is a star on the top left. For any site you want to bookmark press the star and it darkens. Check by looking down the pop up list and pressing on bookmarks. In a synced browser you should be able to access mobile as well as desktop bookmarks.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gippy2:
I will pm you and explain..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rachanta:
You need to to what I have said before after you are in chrome on your mobile.

Guys I'm reporting that with 4.4.2 I don't have the sound shutter when I'm listening music through my BT headset, I've tried both on stock kernel and today with Dmans kernel v50.overall I don't have any problems with KK so far, games like RR3 and angry GO runs well.

This rom is mali v3??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] crocodilechris:
Yes. Newest Mali version
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fuchbitch:
For flashing this rom it says that is necesarry to flash a kitkat compatible recovery ! I am now running dorimanx v9.43v45 which has a older recovery

and i wanted to ask if it is ok, to flash the recovery zip stated at the toturial for installing this rom and then proceed with installing the actual rom?

PS: nandroid backups done with the older recovery are compatible with this new one??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gippy2:
SlimKat is a work in progress...HCP posted this morning so theres some things we have to live with until its all properly functioning...Please be patient

---------- Post added at 08:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:12 PM ----------

Yes that is correct and after you have flashed the rom you can flash doris new 10x kernel but you cant flash a rom over it....

Remember tho that doris 10x kernels are betas so be warned....Just keep a cwm flashable recovery .In fact once you have flashed the rom you can go back into recovery (twrp) and flash dori.. whereas before we couldnt..But only the 10x..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fuchbitch:
This rom comes with TWRP ?

I use swipe finger to unlock my phone.

If i wake up my phone, and touch on the left hardware button, the phone unlock too.

Is there a way to disable this?

@fusionjack

i have started to sniff some strange problems about theme reset on boot

and ROM root not working when using my kernel.

and other strange bugs.

and this is what i have found using Slim 4.3.1 last build.

using dmesg output on boot!

<11>init: skipping insecure property file persist.sys.themePackageName (uid=0 gid=1001 nlink=1 mode=100770)

<11>init: skipping insecure property file persist.sys.usb.config (uid=0 gid=1001 nlink=1 mode=100770)

<11>init: skipping insecure property file persist.sys.ui.hw (uid=0 gid=1001 nlink=1 mode=100770)

<11>init: skipping insecure property file persist.sys.camera-sound (uid=0 gid=1001 nlink=1 mode=100770)

<11>init: skipping insecure property file persist.sys.root_access (uid=0 gid=1001 nlink=1 mode=100770)

<11>init: skipping insecure property file persist.sys.themeId (uid=0 gid=1001 nlink=1 mode=100770)

init is the BINARY boot file that i got from Slim kernel!

as i dont compile it my self, it's made with ROM code.

something in that code it using wrong perms and my kernel dont like it,

and binary init just refuse to set all persist.* values on boot.

can you please check that code part and correct the permissions. or just allow 777 perm for property persist.* sets!

I think that mode=100770 is not correct

mode=1770

seem more accurate.

and here is direct proof that it's comming from init binary :)

[root@dorimanx initramfs3]# grep -R "skipping insecure" res/misc/

Binary file res/misc/JellyB-CM-AOKP-10.2/bootbin matches

Binary file res/misc/JellyB-Sammy/bootbin matches

Binary file res/misc/KitKat-CM-AOKP-11/bootbin matches

i rename bootbin to init on boot and load it. :)

(dual boot manipulations.)

If you can point me to source location of the init binary, i can try to look for solution, and maybe hack something in kernel to ignore and allow!

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fuchbitch:
This rom is supposed to work with art?? Beacuse i'm atuck at optimizing google play store when booting with art !

Nevermind : sorted it out , i overclocked the cpu when if first booted into the rom but to an instable frequency, and now when it's optimizing apps the phone gets stuck because of the high frequency ! My bad

You can find in settings, navigation, global menu, add expanded desktop, hold power until the menu shows up.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Misk77:
Sry OT

Sry if this are the wrong Q in here.

But then its no kill button yet in this Rom maybe anyone here ha good tip of a good kill app.

I have tried some but don't seems to work for all apps are still there, then i press Home button.

They should be closed and nothing should be in the "list".

Hi!

I'm trying to install the last SlimKat using the dorimanx last beta kernel and installing as a second rom, but, everytime I try to flash, I get the following error:

Any idea why?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Maniac9331:
corupt download, redownload the rom;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Misk77:
have you read what Dorimanx write about 2nd rom flash?

If you haven't then read it and see if its solves your problem.

*Citat from Dorimanx:

(dont forget! you cant install 4.4.y ROM from my kernel recovery!)

so if you want to install ROM as SEC you will have to replace META-INF forlder

with one that i will attach here!

it's simple changing the way perms added to ROM for selinux! we dont have it, so it's not important.

Open ROM zip. push the META-INF from my zip inside, and save all back.

Install as SEC or PRI ROM.

this is for fusionjack 4.4.2 build!!!!

other roms may have other things in install script! so it's possible to compare if something missing from ORIGINAL fusionjack folder.

all changes are HERE:

META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script

*End

In its whole original text can be find at page 532 at the right forum for those beta tester that know it already, or can read and search.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] perv88:
woah! i woke up and found that something ate about 45% of my battery. then opened greenefy and realized it lost superuser so it wasn't ON.

Also, i had location set on Battery Saving, but i guess that setting also sucks and it consumes ****load of juice.

Finally, i have this new, beta app, called Cover (lockscreen) and i guess it's also battery-hungry. But i effing love it, so it's staying goddamnit! :D

Anyway, still waiting for more features. Like power toggles, PIE and kill all in recents. I think no 4.4.2. ROM has them yet. Probably everyone waiting for PA.

Appreciating what fusionjack, kroz and hcp are doing. Keep up the solid work dudes ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kircchoffs:
hi FJ, been using your ROM since 4.3.1, I just noticed that I can't activate mobile data until today. I don't use mobile data since I'm always connected in wifi. now Im gonna need this for the holiday and I hope there's a fix on this. I tried to flash stock ROM thru ODIN and its working fine, but of course I like to use it using your ROM. :D

[Galaxy S II Android Development] bullcrapr:
I'm not sure, but I think PIE and PA might be considered as bloat in Slim-speak. And you're right, cover is awesome!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] perv88:
PIE is ok, it was included in 4.3. And i think you made a mistake with "PA". I meant ParanoidAndroid. You probably meant Halo :) halo IS bloatware and i guess it'll never be included in slim roms. ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Crazy-Silver:
Guys my GPS is crazy with this rom. Suggestions?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
apn is set correctly? i'm using the mobile data everyday. it is definitely working in 4.3.1.

@ all: a new build...very soon.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
SlimSaber-i9100-4.4.2-20131222.zip

Changes:

* Synced with official release beta 1.9.

* TRDS: Updates to some components and glowing border for dark images.

* SlimCenter: Now you can check SlimSaber updates through SlimCenter. You'll be redirected to goo.im i9100 folder.

This is still experimental and I'm using UbuntuOne hosting to check the version. Not sure if this free account can give enough bandwidth to handle version checking.

* Some updates in framework base.

* See changelog for the rest of changes. Most of the changes are for n7000.

Galery shows images from Android too!

Problem with SlimSaber-i9100-4.4.2-20131221 and SlimSaber-i9100-4.4.2-20131222:

Galery shows images from /Android too!

Therefore I'm back to SlimSaber-i9100-4.4.2-20131219

I have installed CWM-Recovery. Whitout an alternate recovery, Custom-ROM'S are not flashable. Therefore the question, why you install TWRM?

Best SGS2-KitKat-ROM for me! Fast, smooth, stable! Thanks very much!

All is working fine: Phone, Cam, Camcorder, GPS, Galery, Video-Player

I have changed the build.prop back to 240 dpi density, because I'm 59 years old and the eyes aren't fresh :(

Merry X-mas!

[MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] ; i'm interested in your personal opinion on ART. Is it worth enabling? Are you using it? What are your observations on battery life, application smoothness etc.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zkibz:
Im using mobile data everyday and all is fine here. Check your APN settings. it comes from your carrier provider.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pSyCh¤_O_O:
AFAIK hes personal opinion is the same as everyones opinion.

Its classed as experimental and for developers. ATM theres no noticeable different and only for the worse(app incompatibility and other problems)

You can use it. But no noticeable difference and maybe problems.

Confirmed faster app opening, nova screen transitions with Slimkat 1.9. [MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] please see why building with linaro sabermod toolchain is slowing things. Most perceptible difference is that the lock screen showing up sluggishly when waking phone with power button.
