Odd problems encountered the last 2 days after running a clean install of Build 1. I have not made any changes to phone since Build 1 was released. I installed the day after, following a full, complete, 100% wipe.

I have not made any changes to the phone in a long while. No new apps, nothing.

First, went to use camera, and it said it was unable to connect to camera. Reboot fixed this. Why did this happen in the first place?

Second, today, I went to use the torch, and it just stuck. Didn't turn on at all but the icon lit up in the power panel. Rebooted and it works again.

Third today, went to use camera, got a blank screen. Rebooted. During reboot, had 2 hard locks at bootloader. Had to battery pull twice.

WTF?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
New build is up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
Uhhhhmmmm...??? Cant find a new build...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] icon123:
Its there, check again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] icon123:
BTW, I had problems getting titanium backup working on a clean install of 1.4. I had to install supersu to get it to work. I'm guessing it has to do with the new aosp source and super user.

Edit: it might have to do with not having unknown sources checked in security.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pschatz12:
Website under weekly build
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
Where...exactly? Ahhhh the weekly! Thanks...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
New build is great!

Everything works as it should, at least everything I've tried so far.

One interesting thing I've noticed.

My internal storage on just about every other rom, including every other build of slim, has always sat between 7 to 7.5 gb.

On this build I'm sitting at 8.5gb with everything set up the same.

Anybody else notice something similar?

Anyway, most importantly, it runs great.

I had been running vanir for a few days after running beanstalk and vanir is the fastest but it definitely eats battery and is missing a few features I really like with slim.

I keep going back and forth.

Thanks to the developers of this and all the other roms.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jasek78:
can't change lockscreen wallpaper?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
I did
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jasek78:
care to share the steps with the rest of the class?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
Sorry wasn't trying to be a ****.

Settings then security then lockscreen then background then custom image
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jasek78:
cool ty man
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SupaSwag:
I used to run Vanir but the last few builds have been giving me crappy battery life. The battery life used to be good on it. I now switch between this and carbon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mlin:
Anyone use their camera a lot? If so, how's the stability?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
Running weekly w/no issues, at all...

Finally found the weekly builds, I'm on the the most recent and I love it no issues at all...thanks devs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
Hey, just noticed your location was Ft. Gordon.

I'm showing my age here, but I did AIT at Ft. Gordon in 1984.

I had so much fun there.

Good luck to you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
So what's more stable the build1 under official builds..or the latest weekly..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
Definitely go with the newest weekly, it's perfect!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcflyrk01:
anyone having issues with the new gmail update? play store allows me to select "update" but I get a "package was not signed correctly" error. installing the apk manually doesn't work either.

EDIT: had to delete the original apk, reboot, and install from the play store again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] B-Nice_88:
Anyone has any info on a volume hack that can be used to increase in call volume and music playback?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
fresh system boot/wifi turns on but turn it off & it wont turn bk on. PLEASE HELP!?

+ Ya usually I can get enough increase in volume by using Power Amp but the volume is still too low...would really appreciate a tip on a volume boost, THANKS A MILL!!

On a different note, I get everything setup and after a day or so my quick setting/toggle for WiFi just stops responding. If I turn off the WiFi connection then I cant turn the WiFi back on without a system reboot. Now I have to say HANDS DOWN, WITHOUT A DOUBT THE BEST KICK ASS ROM AVAILABLE FOR THE MDK VZW S4 IS THIS MF'R HERE, I LOVE THE ROM AND I'M DYING TO KEEP IT AS A DD. But the problem with the WiFi is too much. Now I have tried probably 10 times to do different setups from scratch and change up everything imaginable and I cant fix the WiFI issue. Seriously in the last 2+ years of having this hobby I have never had something stump me like this so if anyone can chime in and help me I would be so damn gratefully!! I searched and there was one inquiry about a similar issue but as far as I can see the issue wasn't resolved, I did PM the poster and I'm waiting for a response to see if he fixed the prob. Thanks in advance!

-Deleted: wrong thread. My apologies.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] westhaking:
Not real sure, but have you tried Viper4Android or the XVolume module in the Xposed framework? Maybe these will help.

I have this exact same problem. Good to know that it isn't only me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kvirus11:
If using a custom kernel you can use Trickster Mod or Faux Sound if using Faux kernel.

I personally experiment with both KT/Faux kernels and paid the 1.99 to trickster for the kernel/sound mod.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Harleydroid:
Is anyone running the 10/6 build? Just wanted to know how its running.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pschatz12:
I am... Seems exactly the same
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pschatz12:
Edit: battery seemed to Drain rather quick and phone got hot... Wendt back to the past weekly
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SupaSwag:
I came from a clean flash and battery life for me was good. Especially overnight. I say 'was' since I'm back on carbon. I switch between the two often.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] westhaking:
Anyone else having issues sending/receiving mms on the latest 10/6 build? I flashed dirty so it could be that but wanted to ask here first.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcflyrk01:
it seems like there are random days regardless of build where the battery will just PLUMMET, but will be fine after a reboot. this happened to me yesterday on the 10/6 build and the battery is fine now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
Do you know of any other ROM that has the transition animations editor like carbon? Definitely one of my favorite features.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SupaSwag:
I want to say vanir has it too but I'm not 100% sure on that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] galaxyzalaxy:
having a couple issues with 4.3.1

- pictures the front camera takes come out with green vertical lines all over them

- almost zero 4g reception

- dpi doesn't change, despite having followed the instructions. the size of the notification bar changes though.

i'm new to the world of roms (and some of this language), but before installing this yesterday i factory restored, wiped system, wiped cache and installed. it bootlooped at first but now (~24h later) seems to work fine, save for the above issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Wi1son:
I'm getting a new S4 tomorrow. I'm coming from S3 where I had to unlock phone & bootloader, then root & install TWRP or CWM. After researching, I'm a little confused, and was hoping someone could layout the steps involved in getting a custom recovery setup for ROM & kernel installation. I'm not sure yet what firmware it will come with. Thank you!

--Edit--

So, do I have this right...I can only install Slim if I have MDK firmware, which can be unlocked. Can't unlock and install Slim if on ME7?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
Correct
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Addiso:
MDK cannot be unlocked it's a loki bootloader workaround, just to clarify a bit.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pschatz12:
Patiently waiting next weekly build!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
The new weekly (1.8) is already up :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fafinaf:
My status bar clock is getting stuck quite often.. Anyone else having this issue as well?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcflyrk01:
phone is getting super hot on the latest weekly, stock kernel
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] westhaking:
Anyone's else's Hardware Buttons option gone from the Navigation menu option? I can't see it (it's not there) and now every time I long press the menu button it goes to Google Search which I don't want. Other than that the build is running really smooth for me. It seems to have fixed some mobile connectivity and wifi issues I was experiencing from the 1.6 build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
No problems with hardware buttons here. I've changed the long press action on all of them with no problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pschatz12:
Installed 1.8 and have wifi going on and off. Did 2 clean installs and reset my modem and wifi and still happens went back to 1.6 and all is well... Just a heads up for the slim guys :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
WiFi not a problem for me. Running a custom kernel too. No hiccups.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pschatz12:
Maybe a bar dl... I'm downloading again and will do another install later... See what happens
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cordell12:
Bluetooth Audio

how is BT audio on current builds from slimroms.net , stuttering still?

here is a build using CAF code (currently AOSP BT is used) for BT http://d-h.st/Owo let me know if you still have the stutters, thanks :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcflyrk01:
BT has been pretty solid for me, both in-call audio and music.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
This ROM has been pretty solid for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
I've had this issue as well. I've also had an issue where my phone will reboot when I'm updating apps in the Play store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] red3razor:
Zero issues here. Everything running smooth and stable. BT good. Ktoonez 10-8-13 kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] manofcolombia:
Been running the latest stable but like half an hour ago my mobile network decided to f*** off and now it says I'm on extended network with 2 bars but can't send and receive any messages or anything. I messed with the network settings to switch between cdma and gsm to see if that would help and nothing. Airplay mode nothing. Reboot nothing.

This happened once before about a month ago and I fixed it by switching to gsm then back to cdma but now it's not. And it's not like I've generally lost signal I'm in the same place that I normally get 35 down LTE

Edit: disregard. Everyone on campus with Verizon is down. The tower is down apparently... Well time to go scream at Verizon support to hopefully get a free month at least :D

... Oh wait can't even make a call -_+

Anyone having an issue after installation not having root?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Slim1023:
Does the camera have the option to save pics to the SD Card like CM does?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shortstuff_mt:
Check the big red notice on the original page under FAQ...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pschatz12:
Just installed 1.9 and stuck at boot animation. Anyone get it to boot?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pschatz12:
Seems like they pulled the 1.9 builds And said they will be back later
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] roboots21:
You have to enable it under Developer Options .. it's 'Root Access' I think.

Hey guys....finally SlimBean.4.3.1.build.2 is published. Assuming that KitKat will drop soon this is probably the last stable 4.3.1 build....but lets see how long google let us wait ;) As last week stated we are already working on 4.4 and are developing unique features which will be something completely new in the android world.....so enjoy 4.3.1 and stay tuned for the new comming stuff.

As always please carfully read the complete changelog and the install instructions.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DamiaNations:
Build 2 is awesome. Smooth. Stable. Using latest Chronic Kernel. Only hiccup is issue when making calls. It automatically ends some calls after dialing. Sometimes a reboot fixes it. However, it's been happening with all AOSP roms that I've been using. Any solution for this? It's actually pretty annoying.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
just to make sure, are you referring to the absolute newest chronic, 2.3.3?

also, because I don't remember from the last time I ran slim, does it have active display?

I just discovered this feature on unicorn and it's awesome.

thanks in advance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DamiaNations:
Yes that's I'm referring to. And no there is no active display
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gleggie:
Is there a way to customize the lockscreen? I can't seem to find it

(i'm on build 2 btw)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 93foxgt:
Settings/security/lockscreen
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gandhidog:
I clean flashed build 2 last night, things are smooth so far BUT I am getting a really big issue.

The first thing I did when setting up my phone was set DPI to stock (480). This involved going through the steps of clearing market data. Not sure if this is related but just including in case.

Today, when I try to install apps from play store, all my purchased apps show up under "my apps" but instead of giving me the option to install, there is a price tag, as if I had never bought the app.

Clicking on the price tag gives me this error message:

Error retrieving information from server. [BM-PPH-01]

So I'm not even able to purchase the app again (not that I would).

Is this gapp related? Maybe try going to an older version of the play store app? Anyone have ideas? I can try going to a nandroid when I go home today.

Any help would be much appreciated!

EDIT found the solution from this thread:

Cleared Google Framework data and play data, then rebooted.

Apparently this happens occasionally when switching roms...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
This issue is not related exclusively to the latest build, but does anybody ever have the phone unlock in their pocket? It seems to happen to me a few times a week. My lockscreen is set to swipe and using the 8 slider targets. I also have all the button actions disabled. What am I missing here? I don't want to change to a pattern or password lock because I won't be able to use the slider targets.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
It looks like my leg must push the home button somehow and then a slider target is selected to open the phone. Is there a way to prevent the home button from waking the device on the lockscreen?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gandhidog:
Try settings / display / wakeon

Or

Settings / security / lock screen / screen security / Home unlock
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
Thanks I knew about the Home Unlock option but missed the Wakeon setting under display. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Grillrd:
I have gone 4.3 back to 4.2.2 no problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mpetruzz:
Great!! I thought that was sketchy. But it never hurts to ask. .

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JamesPumaEnjoi:
The build ran great....everything worked except root checker said I didn't have root and I couldn't install superuser or supersu........I tried zips and from the play store neither would work.....Busybox WAS installed.....I downgraded to build 8 and have root again....everything else worked great including keyboard
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Pr1meSuspect:
You have to enable developer options and then enable root by selecting apps and adb
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] msburr87:
Yeah the root settings process needs to go into every 4.3 ROMs OP its getting redic how often it's being brought up. It's like once a page in every thread no one can read or search lol. Any how running smooth here. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chuckleb0ne:
any bugs?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JamesPumaEnjoi:
Thanks for the reply man I appreciate it

Wow... you might excuse me but I've been around Android since cupcake and never had to do that....In fact I tried Droid Concepts 4.3 ROM and Euroskanks CM 4.3 and didn't have to do that...so excuse me for not "reading up" on something I've never heard of or have ever had to do before...whats "redic" is your attitude
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] randy hoopes:
I'm running on my Verizon s4 and it's smooth as can be other than Google play issue that seems on every ROM lately. Can't believe it's alpha cause it's amazing. :thumbup:

---------- Post added at 05:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:45 AM ----------

For those having root issues did you go into developer options and then root access and make sure it's set to adb and apps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SupaSwag:
That was already mentioned a few posts above yours.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kufikugel:
ok some notes:

about it is not official....all our builds go minimum trough one unofficial cycle...if all is well it goes on the website. Reason is easy....not everyone is reading on xda and is searching for help. So we want to be sure that a "noob" or no xda reader has a usable build. As I see the build is fine so I think we will include it into the tomorrow rolling out beta.1 build weekly

root: one of the major changes from google is the security overwork. In this case especially the selinux integration. Root is more or less a possible security issue. So google goes now the selinux way and forces the app developer to use selinux permission to do the things the app want to do where it normal uses root for. The advantage....the app is not able to do anything other then the exact permission it requests. Short explanation of it. Another as well nice short explanation about you can read here: http://www.dailytech.com/CyanogenMod+Creator+Tells+Android+Users+to+Rethink+Rooting/article33058.htm

so two notes to that....we are an aosp rom and like the idea google and selinux team have and will stay with it. So at least root is disabled by default....the user can enable it via developer options or in superuser settings menu if needed. But you will see more and more it is not needed any more due that app devloper will change their apps to the new googel api.

(eg we need to do for dpi changer and slimsizer as well in the next weeks)

that said we do not like what some are doing (like superSU or other roms) which more or less just break that system. Thats the new google way now.

Another hint currently it can happen that you lose root when flashing another kernel....same reason it does not have the selinux certificates then

just wanted to say that

so have fun and cheers

PS...about that it is still labeled as alpha.....most ppl do not see it due that most changes are under the hood.....but this is one of the massivst updates from google in the last cycles. alone in framewors base over 2 million changes....overall way more then 5 million. They really did a big big job on cleaning up the OS as well including security, better battery life etc etc
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dscblu:
Does the ir blaster work on this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] randy hoopes:
Well good then
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JamesPumaEnjoi:
Yes it does :)

Words with Friends is being a slut. It keeps saying no data connection even though there is one. I know it is a fairly poorly written app and it seems to be the one my knees I am having issues with FYI
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cjkacz:
Screen flickers like crazy. DPI settings won't stick. Everything else appears good
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Grillrd:
Did you enable root in settings before changing density? Was able to have settings stick after root for apps and selected. I have 0 screen flicker.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gandhidog:
Np!

Anyone able to get viper4android working on this? I've been trying with no luck.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] LuigiBull23:
Working flawlessly for me.

I've still to get mine working. Drivers installed but it won't process.

I've reinstalled multiple times.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Slim1023:
Is the new MJ7 modem working with Build 2? I know the CM team had to run a fix in their nightlies for it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ahoslc:
I noticed with build 2 you can't add the menu soft key it's not in the list? This is on a clean flash of Build 2.

---------- Post added at 10:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:05 AM ----------

I am not having any issues with it so far on Build 2.

Is the latest KT Kernel compatible with build 2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] LuigiBull23:
Yes
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Metroba:
Am I just having a bad day or is the alarm ringtone hidden somewhere? The stock one is giving me anxiety lol.

Excellent ROM by the way. First time using Slim and I'm in love.

Edit: bad day. Super brain fart.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thrgk:
I flashed this ROM but its telling Mr I don't have root access? How do I fix this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rrrrrrredbelly:
You read the first post
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thrgk:
Yea didn't see anything about it ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Metroba:
From first post:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Slim1023:
So, just flashed this yesterday. Is it a default setting that all icons and basically everything on the display gets smaller? Screen resolution maybe? It's a pretty significant change and I'm not sure how I feel about it. Is there a setting to adjust that?

edit: Nevermind. I figured it out after digging. Changed the LCD Density to 420 from 361.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thrgk:
Yea how do I get all the apos and home screen to normal? Mine is all out of wack. I tried changing settings in the LCD density but couldn't get it to work. I got the first option to 480 and the last one to 420.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jpcalhoun:
I flashed this ROM about 6 hours ago and it's beginning to lag bad. The only thing I'm running other than stock Slim is the Apex launcher. Any suggestions on how to eliminate the lag? I flashed the latest build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dquillen312:
This is the first non-TW rom that I've seen so far (or at least tried recently) that actually has normal recording volume in the video cam! YAY! :D :good: :victory:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jpcalhoun:
Update

Well I eliminated the lag by de-selecting "The Real Dark Slim" in settings. That seemed to do it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chaos2092:
Interesting. Maybe that will be fixed in the next build...
