[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chadman4:
Hi All,

Ok, before anyone gets excited and close this thread--- I'm not asking what the best Kernel out there is.

I think for noobs right me, I ust want to further understand the differences of each Kernel.

I know it's very quick to flash the kernel yadda yadda and it varies on different variables lalala -- but it would still be helpful if we could give our own personal opinion on each kernels. I'll start.

KT Kernel - for advanced users. customizeable because of the KT tweaker app. Makes my phone hot for some reason.

Adam and Ausdim - good balance between speed and performance. Although ausdim v11 makes my phone hot. I'm trying v12 now.

Thanks!

Personal opinion is just another word for criticism.

Does anyone know if there is a better way to play local video through Chromecast? I know we can play certain video types through the Chrome browser but it seems to create noticeable frame dropping.
[Google Chromecast] indiajones2012:
In the chrome extension for casting the tab, there is a drop down next to where it says BETA. In the drop down you can change setting between tab and the whole screen.
[Google Chromecast] czonin:
Tried this as well, still a good amount of frames dropped.

Plex support coming soon

[Google Chromecast] foghelmut:
Playing the video in the browser with Plex and then casting that works great.
[Google Chromecast] david279:
Yea but native plex will be better. In my case my pc is not near my bedroom TV with the Chromecast so I would have to get up walk all the way to the pc bla bla to get it done like that.

I'm not putting casting down because it's been quite smooth for me put I can't wait for native plex.
[Google Chromecast] heiNey:
i'd like a casting button to be built into mx player. that way, i can can browse samba shares from my server/nas from es file explorer and play the video with mx player, then cast to the screen. is that possible?
[Google Chromecast] tnt118:
I had some strange aspect ratio problems when I tried this. Admittedly I only played around with it for 10 minutes.

Not as of today. If the devs add it in (and Google approves the app) it is possible.
[Google Chromecast] foghelmut:
Yeah, the web player seems to convert 2.35:1 to 16:9.
[Google Chromecast] 007shark:
I do something similar with the BubbleUPnP app. My Dish Hopper and Asus Cube are DLNA capable so I choose one of those as my rendering device. Then I pick my shared videos as the source. The built-in media players of the Hopper and Cube then play the files over my local network that I select on my tablet. This also works for files on my tablet if I choose that as a source. I don't think this will work with Chromecast, though, as it is not DLNA capable nor does it support many codecs out of the gate.

When the Chromecast service gets pushed to the Google TV devices this fall, they will fill most everyone's needs. It will give the DLNA support for local files and the internet streaming capabilities of Chromecast with device control. If they also make a mobile PrimeTime app, then you will no longer need to use D-pad navigation for large libraries or channel guides.

Should I update or is this the same as what I tested,
[AT&T LG Optimus G] arcardinal:
It's basically the same. There haven't really been any updates to Slim yet. I'm pretty sure they're waiting for 4.3 to be completely merged.

Thanks man! I've been building and jumping from Liquidsmooth, PAC, and this. This has all the features I want. I was surprised it was only 106MB the first time I built it. I like that it does not have Halo, as I never use it.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] dzaster89:
smooth as butter

Very impressed by this Rom , flashed two nights ago along with me's jss kernel everything is working perfectly. First time on slimbean and I gotta say the customization is awesome, especially coming from cm. One thing I can't find though is notification count on status bar, not sure if its even there. But aside from that getting awesome battery life and feels smooth as butter. Happy with this ROM so far, will repost after I play with the kernel. Oh yeah the volume boost is working as well just use trickster to change settings I don't think any other app is needed to mod kernel. Almost forgot a thumbs up to arcardinal for bringing this to our lgog, I refuse to buy a larger screened smartphone this is perfect and it has the hardware to back it up.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] foundsoul80:
Any one having issues with GPS acting funky? Using Google maps the go into navigation mode its not showing right location at all at any means, won't follow the pin points. Its so screwed!
[AT&T LG Optimus G] arcardinal:
GPS works fine for me.

Also, there is an update in the OP. Updated to build 1.6. There are some kernel changes, now Linux 3.4.63, and I made some changes to my device tree. The Fast Charge toggle is also available in the Quick Settings tiles.

There are also some changes to the camera. It does not use continuous auto focus anymore. It will auto focus before taking a picture though.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] quadzilla122:
Where do I enable the fast charge toggle? I don't see it on that drop-down menu.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] arcardinal:

[AT&T LG Optimus G] quadzilla122:
I am loving this new build! Everything is working great for me
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dzaster89:
quick question, i was wondering if you had and links to your previous builds the latest update is not playing well with the kernel i was previously using. still getting good performance with stock kernel but loved the feel and customization of me's. my main problem i guess is that my mobile network and wifi network shows grey with any version of the kernel. just thought i'd bring that up since i know many people like using outside kernels.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] arcardinal:
Sorry, I already deleted the old builds from dev-host. If somebody else has it feel free to post it.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] KiSUAN:
I have the 1.2, I'll upload it when I’m back from work. One question, your problem is that data and wifi doesn’t work or that the icons don't change color?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] KiSUAN:
Here is Slim-geeb-4.3.build.1.2-UNOFFICIAL-20130927-2035 http://www1.zippyshare.com/v/14360259/file.html

Enjoy
[AT&T LG Optimus G] quadzilla122:
Funny cause I actually did have my wifi and mobile network bars go grey today for about 5 minutes when I was next to my router. It fixed itself right after that without rebooting or changing any setting.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dzaster89:
They appear to be working fine, I guess just a small bug that's preventing them from changing color. I've been using the jwr kernel on the latest builds, since I had the tearing issue with jss, that might also have something to do with it. Still very much enjoying the ROM though.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dandrumheller:
In most ROMs grey signal bars indicate a network connection is active, but not connected to Google servers. They go blue when you have a connection to the G. Not sure if that's the case here, but just passing on the info.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] piotrus22:
Hi guys -

is there a way to change DPI to specific setting? I see only 213/240/320 and 480. Can I change it to something arbitrary like 285?

Thanks!

I'm running slimbean from Sept 29th.

I've lost root with update 1.6 and not sure how to get it back. The Root tool doesn't seem to work with 4.3 and Slim. It runs fine when on 4.1.2 OTA, but that's kinda useless since when I restore to OTA, it's already rooted and says so.

Any ideas?

I don't seem to find any way to customize it, can't add short cut, change wallpaper or anything. I really love the lock screen with 5 quick access icon like the one in slimbean homepage.

I notice some battery drain overnight, does any one else encounter this problem?

Here's my screen shot of battery usage, with wifi turned off, CPU set to ONDEMAND, min 192, max 1512.

I don't know why the wifi use continuously overnight, thought I've turned it off before going to sleep

EDIT: I've turned off the option to scan WIFI automatically and the drain is lower. But for some reason, the min CPU is set to 918MHz, not 384 as I want, and I can't set it :(
[AT&T LG Optimus G] arcardinal:
Are you running a 3rd party kernel? The included kernel does not have 192 min. I'm not seeing any of the drain on included kernel. Intellidemand governor and mpdecision turned off (I have it enabled in MP-Decision control in trickster).
[AT&T LG Optimus G] withmenilu:
Guys, How to enable usb mass storage (Not MTP) on 4.3? Thanks
[AT&T LG Optimus G] TnG2903:
Oops, my mistake, I recall from the last kernel I used. Yesterday I return to full slimbean, no customization. I've just checked the CPU Setting, and it said minimum is 918MHz, max is 1512MHz. I've tried to change minimum to 384, but it just revert itself to 918 no matter what I do. How is it happening?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] hv6478:
You must turn off MP-Decision. Use TricksterMOD from the Play Store. You should use that to control the clock speeds too. Doing so in the Android system settings isn't reliable.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] piotrus22:
hi guys - me again... haha. still having problems. my phone will disconnect from the network multiple times during the day. i'm trying to determine correlation between what it is i'm doing at the time it loses signal. so far no dice. earlier today i entered the messaging app and it disconnected, but also happens other random times.

is NO ONE having this issue? @#!$#%#$@#!$! !!!!

which modem are you guys using??
[AT&T LG Optimus G] arcardinal:
No issues for me. I'm using the att mako hybrid modem. I'm in the Twin Cities area with strong LTE signal and never lose it.

Also, are you using at&t model e970?

I tried the recent build of Carbon and there are a thing or 2 i liked. But some freezing here and there when I was trying to type I'd have to restart the phone or sometimes hit the home button.

1. The lock screen the slide button if you would to hold it down the torch would turn on and let go it turn off.

2. more battery icons.

3. Vibration adjustments from soft to hard which was bad ass cause our vibration depending on cases can barely be felt.

Maybe u can add these in the future.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] zymphad:
Thanks for the work.

External_SD is not working though. SMS backup and calllog backup can't backup or restore from external_sd. Flashed the TWRP you just posted and latest 4.4 alpha build.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] arcardinal:
To be honest, I don't know. I haven't tried.

Make sure its pointing to the right location. Mount points have changed with 4.4. Its now storage/sdcard1. I just checked and its working fine for me.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] zymphad:
Thanks, look forward to 1.3 alpha
[AT&T LG Optimus G] zymphad:
Hey drunk,

You rooted and unlocked already? It is recommended you do upgrade to stock 4.1.2 stock first.

You might be able to get around that by using teenybin. After you should flash to the latest TWRP that is listed here, which is also ready for 4.4 KitKat. If you want all the features and stability of Slim, stick with the 4.3 v2.0 though since the 4.4 is vanilla AOSP pretty much right now.

V20j is the right bin file, guessing you already know how to LGPNST?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] DrunkenDragon:
Well previously i had optimus sol so i do think its similar to kdz we used there. and can you provide me the teenybin link? i couldn't find it. and yes i have rooted it and have unlocked bootloader and installed latest TWRP 2.5.

Just tell me whats the next thing to do? flash the bin file with LGPNST??? and again root unlock and flash whatever i want? :D

Thanks a lot zymphad
