Yes, the information is correct. Apparently there is a bug with exchange email and 4.4 but this was awhile ago and I thought it would have been fixed by google by now. I am getting the same errors that were reported previously, can't sync/connect to server.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] foxnutz:
wow that's the first i've heard of it... i rely heavily on my exchange email everyday. i noticed that the article mentioned using domainusername syntax as a possible fix. i always set up my exchange email using "/youremailaddress@email.com" have you tried that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rrrracer:
Looks like we are getting a new dialer and a slice of SlimPie this week.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] majixx11:
Yep that's how I normally do it. I'll talk to IT at school and see if some of the other settings like port etc are OK. Never had to mess with any of that before.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xgerryx:
My sound issue happened again on LiquidSmooth JB final release. So this is not a Slim issue, and it's not even a KK issue. I'm thinking hardware problem. This time it happened at the exact moment a text was being received while music was playing through headphones. It was on vibrate at the time. I need to find some GS3 hardware guru on this site somewhere. Uhg.

our weekly is up! early this time
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
Wow, just checked figured it would be several hours... Nice!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samsgun357:
I've got a sound issue as well. It seems to happen after using Bluetooth, all sounds cease. A reboot fixes it but it is annoying. I don't recall this happening to me on other kk ROMs.

Watch, as I combine all the juice from my mind...

Icon size question

Thanks for the awesome KitKat ROM! It's very stable. I'm very happy with it.

I don't have the best eye sight any more so I changed the DPI back to 320. I used Texdroider to change the DPI but now I'm wondering if the SlimKat icon sizes are smaller than "stock"? Maybe it's just me but it appears that the home screen and App drawer icons are smaller than stock even when the DPI is at 320.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daturkel:
New weekly looking really good! Would love the brightness slider back most of all (the actual slider, not just the slide across the status-bar). And the power-toggles in the notification drawer are nice too (though the quick-settings are an "ok" replacement).

Other than that, no complaints. Running great!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] carpdeeem:
Check to see if Bluetooth has disconnected. I used to think that I was having sound issues after also, then found that my phone simply thought it was still connected to my car Bluetooth device (which was powered off and well out of range).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] slambert27:
Does anyone care to comment in the camera performance on the latest weekly build?

Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] d1ez3:
I'm still having a long lag time between taking a picture and being able to swipe in the app to get to the gallery. I'm not sure if this happens for everyone or just me. Also the camera is still distorted in snapchat. Other than that it seems to be working well. Everything else in this build seems faster after a clean flash for me
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Thanks for pushing this RC3 release out Nick! The additions look awesome!

Edit: Is anyone else using SlimPie? If so, have you added QuickSettings to the second row and noticed it does not respond every other attempt when accessed via SlimPie? SlimPie is non-responsive (aka does not show up on subsequent attempts) until you manually drag down the notification tray.

Edit x2: Looks like when QuickSettings makes SlimPie inactive, opening any app simultaneously draws down the QuickSettings too.

Edit x3: It appears this only happens from the homescreen. If already inside an app, this works as it should. I could reproduce the same issue with expand to Notifications as well.

Edit x4: Hey [MENTION=4408910]nicklovell23[/MENTION], several hours later I think I may have finally figured out my issue with SlimPie second row shortcut for QS and Notifications. Turns out, if you hide the notification bar on the homescreen (this is my default in Nova launcher) then this conflicts tremendously with the QS and Notifications SlimPie shortcut. You will receive a delayed action in the notification or QS displaying until you open an app. I can reproduce this with ease. If you guys get any reports about these specific SlimPie shortcuts not working, it might help to make the Slim team aware.

I updated to the RC 3, and for some reason I cannot get google services to work. When i install from play store, i get error contacting servers rpc s-7 error and s-0. I re flashed several times wiping each time with no luck. I then went in a cleared data on the play services app, store app and got it to a rpc s-3 error. was never able to install anything from play store. restored back to my backup from this morning on rc2 and it works fine with play store

help would be apreciated

edit: when play services is opened in the play store, it says this app is not compatable with this device
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Was the phone done syncing before you tried installing anything from the Play Store? I haven't run into this issue on RC3. I flashed, skipped sign-in (as always) deselected everything in "backup & restore", signed in, and only allowed Gmail, contacts, and calendar to sync. No Play Store issues here. I've installed a few apps from the play store and restored with Titanium Backup as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cstone1991:
I dirty flashed 2.8 last night after clearing my BT cache. For the first time ever on SlimKat, my phone now connects to my car stereo flawlessly. 5 times in a row so far.

This is also my first time running ART and it seems significantly faster. I haven't seen any errors or problems with it since the first few reboots while I was letting the ROM settle in.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mrdunlop:
I am fairly certain it was, as I let it sit for a good 30 min before I decided to give up and restore the backup

I was looking for a lightweight 4.4.2 ROM and this seems to be it. Thanks for the build. I know these things take a crap load of time and I know the Community thanks you. Just flashed and letting it do its thing. Gonna give it a run tomorrow. I might have missed it though, but what kernels can be ran with this ROM?

*edit*

I just noticed, but its taking a while to install apps from the playstore. Like, a ridiculously long time, like I was on 56k dial up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ryanstfl:
I don't see the dialer changes?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Hmm, maybe try a redownload and reflash?

I see them pretty well in Call Settings/Phone Number Lookup
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] countryfolk07:
The dialer changes don't seem to look up anything while in the dialer though. At least not for me. I tried pizza hut and it came up with nothing. Our town has one BTW.

EDIT: it does find it in the search bar at the top of the recent log in the dialer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samsgun357:
That might've been it, its working fine now on latest build!!

Watch, as I combine all the juice from my mind...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I haven't seen a video demoing the local search with the keypad up if that's what you were referring to, only with the keyboard once inside of the Phone app. The Phone app is referred to as the "dialer" in videos I've seen. Make sure you have location turned on as well, I just found out it does not work without it enabled :laugh:

How do you get Tap & Pay working? nothing happens when I click on it. Do I need an app? Is this feature working?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samsgun357:
I believe that's Google wallet so you'd have to set that up first. Someone correct if I'm wrong

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chucky5150:
I think this is one of the few times that I didn't just update my phone and forget about the ROM for months at a time.

I just dirty flashed from the 2.5 weekly to the 2.8 that came out and it fixed all of my Bluetooth issues. It will now disconnect and reconnect to my truck with no issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] toklas:
setup google wallet first. then that will appear in the tap and pay as the selected pay method.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] d1ez3:
thanks, this worked. Should tap to pay at places with NFC work, or do I need to modify something bc we're on Verizon

I'm glad pie is back in the picture but it takes a heck of a long time to get it to come up. Hit and misses. I'm sure it'll get fixed!

Thanks devs for such an great rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jsmitty90:
I have no problem with pie
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kaslopis:
I should clarify that I use right edge pie and that I allways got the wallpaper/widgets/settings menu instead.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
No problems here either, I just try not to use left/right Pie while on the homescreen lol too much unnecessary agitation.

I do have a question though, maybe it's OCD, but is Pie supposed to flip when its on the right side? What I mean is that, I use Pie locked into the bottom and have everything set up. Switching from bottom to left Pie just moves it along as if you were on a spinning disc--all apps and buttons are in the same position just on the left. When you move Pie to the right however, it's a 180 of left Pie OR it's reversed from bottom Pie. Is this accidental or intentional when relocating Pie? Sorry if this sounds confusing but left and bottom Pie are "the same" if you just rotated the phone however right Pie has everything flipped.

I tried everything to get the included gapps calendar to install...all failed. Google calendar from the playstore installs + works, so the calendar provider apk is ok, it's just the actual calender apk that is the problem (I assume).

Ended up installing team blackouts Google calendar which is working fine.

Been on the newer build since the morning after. So far so good for me. No issues with texts, calls, data, or wifi. Everything I've tried has worked so far. Haven't tested bluetooth since I don't use it right now. I'm also on MF1.

To the guy who flashed back to bk1 or whichever firmware, maybe you could reflash the newer firmware and it would work as well. You may have already tried it though. I do remember seeing in the CM threads that we should be on MF1 for those builds. It probably doesn't matter, I don't know that it did in the past. Maybe those builds have something in them in particular that requires MF1, I don't know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidxxxxx:
On on that gapps version..but my calendar won't sync when I ad an event on the calendar from my tablet..it won't show up on the phone even when manually synced..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samsgun357:
Go in calendar and hit the menu button, calendars to display, calendars to sync and make sure that's correct.

Also go into system settings, accounts, Google and manually sync calendar. Hopefully one of these will fix your issue.

Does anyone know if the stock kernel has provision for fast charging? Didn't see anything in the settings. Thanks!

My guess would be no. There are a few custom kernel choices, not sure if they have fast charge or not though.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RBarnett09:
BMS kernel supports Fast Charge.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] griz.droidx:
As do dkp, imoseyon, and KT747. I'm on the latest dkp at the moment. I'm pretty sure the stock kernel doesn't have fast charge.

Undervolted for what its worth, and getting great performance and battery life. But I think the performance of 4.3 is better in general than 4.2. It benches better. LOL I know. That doesn't mean diddly. It feels fast too, faster though I do not know and can't tell the difference without the numbers. Slim has always been fast for me. Sorry guys went on a rant there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dbornack:
Anyone know why a successfully downloaded file keeps showing up in notifications until I manually delete it?

Does it have to do with Media taking up a lot of resources?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
Do you mean swipe the notification manually or actually deleting the downloaded file? If it's swiping or clearing the notification, that's normal behavior that has been there for as long as I can think of. If you a actually need to delete the file to make the notification go away, that's a definite issue that your having...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Long press it then hit app info then un check notifications
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dbornack:
Right, so no matter how many times I acknowledge the notification, it comes back until I delete the file.

While this is all well and good to address the symptom, we should find a reason for the cause. It's like the Media Storage service frequently polls the download folder, and anything in it, you'll get a notification, regardless if its been acknowledged.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
That's weird, it's not happening on my end, though I am running a slightly modified version of beta 2.

Does the notification still appear when you remove the downloaded file out of the downloads folder? And about how long does it take after clearing the notification for it to return?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samsgun357:
I'm not having this issue, would like to know what's up though.

Eat Play Google
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dbornack:
No, once I delete the file, it doesn't appear again. But maybe I don't want to delete what I've downloaded? This has happened on and off since the beginning of Slim 4.2.x. It's been awhile since I've seen it though.

It takes maybe 10 minutes +/-.. or if I happen to reboot, then it appears again right away.

In my example, I had downloaded the fixed version of the ROM, flashed it, and rebooted. I left the file there, as I always leave the last couple of versions of ROMs around in case I get into a bind. So since the other day (maybe yesterday, I have no idea) when I flashed the latest Beta 2, it's been happening. I honestly can't say for certain if it happened on Beta 1. As soon as I DLed the Beta 2 version, I flashed it, so I didn't give Beta 1's media manager enough time to poll for it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
For the tap + pay question (i just got into this on g+, weird), the answer is no it will not work without a modified wallet app or a build.prop change. The only reason wallet shows that t+p is set up and available is because it's technically native in 4.4...., but this is deceiving and not clarified exactly by Google. It will only natively work with an official kk device either through Google or an official kk through a carrier. Our device is still "wallet blacklisted" and will remain that way unless vzw releases kk for us. It's possible that any s3 official kk could open the door, but that's speculation. So basically carriers cannot forbid future devices from running wallet, but legacy devices using custom 4.4 roms are still stuck unless an official build is released that will "free" the device....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dpeeps74:
I haven't used it this build but I did notice that a couple of builds ago. It wasn't that way at first with the builds for me. I would find myself turning it down but now max volume is barely enough.

I'm pulling my hair out over this and I can't seem to find an answer anywhere. (Probably because I'm up way later than intended)

I'm trying to get something working that requires SU permissions, my screen shut off, and by the time I turned my screen on I didn't have the option to allow it, it just showed that it was denied.

--Super User is turned on in the developer options of course, but I can't find a way to see what received permissions or what apps were denied?

I installed a SU app hoping things may magically show up there, but everything is still going through the built in app that I can't seem to find.

Is there a way to get to approved/denied apps in the built in SU controls, or perhaps a way to switch permissions to a different app? :confused:

Thanks for any ideas!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] countryfolk07:
The built in app is in settings/advanced/superuser. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mrdunlop:
Anyone still having bluetooth issues? I have split second cut outs when using bluetooth with music, further re connecting device has continued issues. I sometimes need to unpair and re pair. Looking for some incite, anyone else seeing this as well?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samsgun357:
If you go into the integrated SU you can select the app that's been denied and delete. It should then prompt again when you open that app. Also there is a setting in there called automatic response, if you hit the three dot overflow menu or your menu key. Set it to allow and it will auto allow su request from any app.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gadgetguy08:
Actually on build 2.8 RC3, it has been very good with respect to Bluetooth for me. I used to have pairing issues frequently and they seem to be non-existent (in the 3+ days I have been running it).

I haven't had a chance to try a long enough period of playing music in the car to determine if the connection remains solid, but for 5-10 minutes on a few trips, I had no issues with cut outs or drops. Previously it would play for 10-15 minutes and the Bluetooth share would stop. Hope to be able to try that in the next couple of days.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
Are lockscreen button controls going to be put back in (most 4.4 have returned them)? The lock ring torch is not nearly as effective.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NMEAGENT:
What exactly are lockscreen button controls? Is it a stock KitKat feature or a custom ROM feature?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
Full control on what your home, back, and menu keys do while on the lockscreen. Setting home for torch is invaluable. Flash cm11 and see, a powerful feature that was in slim bean.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NMEAGENT:
Wow that sounds really useful! I use the torch a lot and its a pain to put in my password and unlock every time...I would be happy if we could pull down the notification bar from the locksreen
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
SlimKat 2.8 RC3 is running fantastic for me. I've really only held a couple phone calls so I can't attest to speakerphone volume but I've had solid performance with this, Xposed, SlimPie, as well as the latest BMS kernel installed. Had a snow storm in NOVA last night and my phone has been keeping me plenty busy and distracted when I haven't been shoveling lol thanks again for this release.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XXchocolatetouchXX:
You can set it up on 2.8 that if you double press the slider padlock, and then hold it will turn on the torch until you let go. I so far have found this more useful than the hold home to enable because it is a little more safe. I have had more than once the light on my phone be on because it was pressed and held in my pocket, and have accidentally had it come on when I wasn't supposed to have my phone out. OOPS lol only checking the time but it was embarrassing lol. If you even use the slide screen with the password or pin I dont know, but if you do then I would check this setting if I were you.

---------- Post added at 10:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 PM ----------

Anyone know if the power bar, or the toggles above the notifications, will be back anytime soon? I don't seem to have them or haven't yet figured out how to activate them, but I miss those since I used them way more than the tiles(especially brightness!). My other concern is where is the little close all button in the recent page? I miss that too sometimes closing all those windows can be a nuisance. The RAM bar I also missed I really liked the info that put out.

I am sure these are to come in future builds, but can anyone tell me for sure if they will be soon to exist or not? Just good to know what to expect out of this wonderful ROM! I do have to say coming from 4.3 I feel my battery life has increased. Normally my phone would be dead by now and I currently have 39% which is really good for me!!

Keep up the good work slim!
