I have a small bug on beta 2.1 that I did not have on previous builds, while the screen is locked and turned off pressing the power button doesn't wake the screen back up, I have to press the home button to wake screen. My power button does work to reboot and what not. Other than that everything works perfect on latest build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nicklovell23:
No issues with power button here can anyone else confirm?

As far as I lost root "I'm not trying to be that guy" but please only respond to this question in the future with "please read the entire thread starting with the OP first" ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
Thanks Deuce

i should of read more i still haven't explore the whole settings on this
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] deuce237bblock:
I just noticed that it only happens when I have a notification and the LED is blinking, pressing the power button won't wake the screen. Any other time the power will wake the screen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
Sorry for another noob question.. Can apply a theme to SK? I look in setting and Development options.

Also everything looks small on this i have font on large. And i use contacts lol. Other than that this is stable rom nice work to the developers
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mightybryan:
Hey it seems like slim doesn't allow user apps such as Dolphin to utilize the proxy settings on the connect wifi network. Just showed no connection. Apps like twitter show errors. This is the first time I've come across this problem throughout any Rom. They atleast work on Dolphin. Is there anything I can become aware of about this issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] flyestAC:
No issue here. Just sent myself a text to confirm.

Themes are not included yet. As the thread title days Slim Kat is still in beta. With every build release more tweaks and settings are being included. Same goes for the "font". The default DPI for Slim is 245. DPI settings will most likely be included in an upcoming build. For note you can change the DPI using texdroider from the play store. 320 DPI is probably what you're looking for.

Like Nick said, read. All of this has been discussed ad nauseum throughout this thread. There's a lot of smart people and a lot good info in here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gadgetguy08:
I had this (power button won't wake the device) occur once yesterday since clean flashing but it is not consistently doing it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I thought I was going crazy cuz I noticed the same power button issue. I wasn't sure if it was my phone cuz it was not being sensitive with the display on and bringing up the power menu. It's intermittent and very difficult to reproduce for you as well right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gadgetguy08:
I just had a spontaneous reboot and when I went to start using I had to use the home button instead of power. There were no notifications, but it seems to occur for me when the screen is locked (I don't lock the screen automatically, only after 5 minutes), but unfortunately not every time.

Edit: I can recreate the issue by booting and allowing the screen to go off before attempting to use.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
I encountered this a few times. I'm wondering if it's a voltage issue, since I'm running lean and I believe it's undervolted by default.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Hmm, I've got to spend more time seeing if I can recreate it without my lockscreen showing up.

Doubt it because I'm using the stock kernel and I'm seeing this as well
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
Darn. It's too random to pinpoint what the issue is for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gadgetguy08:
Yes. Last time I rebooted it didn't occur. Arrgh.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
I looked at the phone apps and performance when the screen issue occurred and it looked like the Timley widget I'm using was not responding. Probably coincidental, but I wonder if that's my issue...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
I think i went back 20+ pages to catch up i think i read most post of 4.4 SK. I think all questions got answered and learn more things. I got a non rom related question. I installed mms apk hammerhead zip works great but i se double txt in my convo list but the ppl dnt get double txt from. But it shows like i send two txt. Anyone got a suggestion to fix this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rrrracer:
Haha :) That's what I like about the way you do business Nick. No thread Nazi, just help a guy out and move along :)

Everyone here is courteous and helpful for the most part, and if anyone gets out of line you're quick to shut 'em down. The civility is much appreciated.

Rom-related, I'm having a great time with the latest. A couple random reboots here and there but no deal breakers for me now.

Soooooo good to be back on Slim. Nice work man.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mightybryan:
Disabling and renabling the navbar fixes this issue for me. The navbar seems to have a few bugs that breaks some other things. Mostly seems to happen when using GravityBox.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daturkel:
My phone will occasionally vibrate twice without any apparent reason. Is there a log I can view to figure out what these vibrate events are?

edit: just switched from kt747 to lk but it's still vibrating;

also, is it bad that i'm using the latest not-bricking radio and modem (MF1 firmware with ML1 Modem) but only on slimbean, not slimkat?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kennyho35:
Where can I download the latest version of CWM and how do I install that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tvl76:
I don't use cwm, but when I did, I installed Rom Manager from the playstore and you can get cwm thru that app.

My post, that you quoted, referred to adding the screenshot shortcut to you're power button.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Relentless D:
You can also download it from their website and use flashify to get it on there. That way you can choose regular or touch and flash it. You can also use flashify (or goo manager) to get twrp back.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] benwalburn:
I noticed this rom doesn't have an option to disable the key backlight, so I threw together an app that will.

It turns off the keys and adds an init.d script that will disable it again at boot.

The second option will enable the lights again and remove the script.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-oucbD4n0e6a2x4SWNGeC14ZjA/edit?usp=sharing

This will only disable the lights. The keys will still work. It might work on other roms, as long as the directory is identical and the system supports init.d. It might work even if init.d isn't supported, but you'd have to run the app after each boot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] flyestAC:
Awesome. I was using something similar from the play store but had to disable after every boot. Thanks so much.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cr4ck3r4lif3:
I flashed 2.1 but noticed the camera is missing. I grabbed the apk from 2.0 but wanted to inform you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] countryfolk07:
I've been running 2.1 since release. I've got camera. What Gapps did you flash? Slim?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cr4ck3r4lif3:
I flashed the slim gapps. I also looked in the 2.1 zip and the camera is missing from system/app but did find it in system/priv-app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dpeeps74:
That's exactly where camera2.apk is in my rom zip and on my phone and all works fine for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cr4ck3r4lif3:
Strange. For me, it only works if i move the camera apk back to system/app. It's all good. It's functioning now ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] turbosrrgood:
Well done
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DubleJayJ:
Gonna be trying this soon. Coming from Gummy. I heard the battery life on SlimKat is amazing, anyone agree with that? It's mainly the thing that is making me switch.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] flyestAC:
Battery life will vary. I've been on my phone all day. Couple calls and 4 1/2 hours screen time and I'm at 25%.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DubleJayJ:
Holy crap. That's not bad. I let mine idle most of the time with 45 minutes to an hour on screen time and I'll be at 70%

Mine is at 71% right now and I have 9 hours 12 minutes device on time and 50 minutes screen on time. With just texting.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ECrispy:
On both 1.9 and 2.x I'm getting the same problem - taking a picture with flash on turns the phone off, requiring a battery pull. This is with stock and also BMS kernel.

I end up using another camera app when I need flash, but its very annoying and dangerous.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tvl76:
Camera is borked on 1.9 and 2.0. You need to get on 2.1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
It's no better, IMO. Once you get the rom settled a bit, you'll find it has good stand-by time, but they're rather similar to me. Run a custom kernal (I ran Lean on it) and you'll get even better results.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DubleJayJ:
Currently running on Lean right now. Gonna flash it whenever I switch over tonight
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dpeeps74:
I just had the issue where I could only wake up with home button while the sms reply window was open and I let it timeout . I was also able to replicate it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] LeoRex:
I seem to remember that KK has recalibrated things with the S3's signal strength calculations.... it was a little too generous with the rating in earlier versions. Don't hold me to that, though. But it could explain why.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
It's not comforting to be honest. I know I live in a poor signal area but man, seeing that is the worst! Lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] LeoRex:
Well, from what I remember, functionally, it's the same signal and your phone would operate the same... they are just REPORTING it as such.

Does it work as good... or as bad (heh)... as before? If your call quality has gone into the toilet, that's a different story.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Ironically enough, since I noticed "0 dBm 99 asu" in the last two weeks, I haven't taken many calls due to my grad school workload :laugh: My signal is serviceable but I've always relied on wifi when I'm home. There's only so much one can do with -115 dBm, you know? I have noticed texts failing more often with 0 dBm, but its not an every day or every time occurrence. It took me 20-30 minutes to send an important mms pic once, which was how I noticed my signal was 0 dBm. My signal jumps back up when I'm in strong signal areas which is great so I know its only when I'm in a low signal area which most of the time is my home :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kennyho35:
Launcher seems a tad laggy.... I turned off an animations and transitions. What's a good kernel to match up with this ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] EindhovenOne:
I would definitely like to know about these random vibrate events as well. It confuses and tricks me every single time lol. I can't figure it out :-/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jcurley:
Anyone else having problems with YouTube or internet video playing? It works right after reboot but after it sits for a while,I can no longer play videos. They just do not load.

Is there something I'm missing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] countryfolk07:
All the custom kernels are pretty good. Each has their own features that set them apart

From each other. I like dkp and BMS. Currently using dkp though.

I'm not, nor have I, had any issues with you tube or videos. Been on this since release. Version 2.1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jcurley:
OK thank. I will Odin back to stock and reflash. Start over fresh.

Thank.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] johnnytraveler:
Why Odin? Just reflash. Wipe data, cache and dalvik.

Sent from my CromiX TF700T Tablet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jcurley:
Did that originally, then did that again still having the same video playback issues.

Read before that starting over from an Odin may fix my issues.

I am running 2.1 and had problems with SK kernel so went to lk and still had problems.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] johnnytraveler:
Keep trying. I just checked and you tube is working for me. Netflix didn't, but I think that is a known issue with slimkat. I'm on DKP kernel, you can try that or just use stock (don't flash a kernel when you reflash the rom). Lastly, you may want to wipe system, data, cache and dalvik. There's no harm in wiping system. Just make sure you've nandroid.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SkinnyT:
I'm having the YouTube issue as well. I tried it last night and the video just never loads. I also odin'd back to stock twice last week, so that may not fix the issue for you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mightybryan:
Why does it say Asphalt 8 is incompatible in the play store? I really want to play it and I'm sure it's compatible with our phones.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jcurley:
With that YouTube issue, do you have a problem with your own videos you recorded playing also?

It works perfectly after a reboot, but will not work after its been sitting for a while.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DubleJayJ:
I'm one of the lucky ones I guess. No YouTube problems for me. Running 2.1 and LeanKernel. I load videos fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dpeeps74:
Yeah, no issue for me either with previous build, current build, stock kernel, custom kernel. Wondering if others are perhaps restoring data with titanium or similar app, or if they're running an ad blocker, or anything like that. Maybe installing some other flash player stuff somehow or anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jcurley:
I did do that originally. Then I wiped and tried again. Maybe it didn't take the wipe.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rrrracer:
For those with the You Tube problem, try clearing your cache and data for the app. Mine was hanging up as well and this fixed it, but for how long I don't know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
I keep tapping refresh.... 2.2 still not up for us yet....!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kennyho35:
The launcher is still quite laggy to me. I am running 2.1 with kt kernel clocked at 1728. Any ideas how to clean that up? Transition between home screen to Google now is pretty bad. Also when switching from home screen to app launcher.. ..... Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] countryfolk07:
Just use Nova launcher that's built in. It's got the KitKat look and much smoother. Looks better with the low DPI also.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PsiPhiDan:
Is it usually Sunday evening we get the weekly builds? I'm fairly new to Slim weekly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
It's up now... 2.2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tvl76:
It's up, I'm downloading now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Blaiser47:
It's up :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] draexo:
Going from Slimbean to SlimKat I need to do a full wipe, correct?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] johnnytraveler:
Yes, data, cache and dalvik.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rrrracer:
Boing! Downloading now :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dpeeps74:
My initial thoughts based on some things I saw in the changelog...glad that I can now back out of the notification drawer, the new bubbles look terrible imo compared to the previous ones, and I really like the non intrusive call screen and I hope it returns as an option.

---------- Post added at 08:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:20 PM ----------

Bubbles in sms.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] d1ez3:
did you dirty flash from 2.1? I don't know if a full wipe this week is necessary
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dpeeps74:
There's quite a few changes but I just wiped cache/dalvik. I usually do with almost every rom change unless I notice an issue and then I'll go back and do a clean install. I only flashed a short time ago but so far everything seems good functionality wise.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
I had to restore a backup due to long pressing power or slightly over pressing power causes a strange hot boot. I had to battery pull in order to get into recovery or power off...build 2.2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] d1ez3:
Thanks, I did the same.

Does anyone know when they plan on bringing power widgets back in the notification drawer? This is my favorite thing in AOSP roms and have been waiting for it since 4.4 betas started
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] griz.droidx:
I think it was nick who said that you really should always wipe. He said dirty flashing was like wearing dirty underwear. I always wipe but those were his words not mine. I'd say if you search xda you'd see it. There can't be that many references to dirty underwear.

---------- Post added at 09:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:00 PM ----------

Do you think you may have a bad download? Since the guy above seems to be running fine? My download is creeping. I might have to wait until tomorrow.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] flyestAC:
I've been dirtying the past few betas. Trying to make it to an official stable before I clean again. No issues for me in quite a while.

I to like the addition of the back key to exit notifications. Also I think the new SMS bubbles look good. The white outline when on dark slim was horrible.

So far so good for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] d1ez3:
I have the same issue with long pressing the power button. This wasn't a clean flash though, anyone with a clean flash can comment on this?

edit: only happened on first boot. seems normal now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] flyestAC:
I dirtied and am not having that issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jcurley:
Netflix seems to be working on this build. Word!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I haven't had any issues with Netflx on the last two betas :confused::confused: I usually watch anime a couple times a week on mobile and it displays fine. Even works from my S3 to my PS3. Was this exclusive to build 2.1?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Relentless D:
Heads up posted on the website:

" ATTENTION: THE ANNOUNCED 2.2 WEEKLY BUILD WILL BE REBUILDED. WE GOT MAJOR REPORTS ABOUT HOTREBOOTS. WE IDENTIFIED THE ISSUE AND REBUILD NOW WEEKLY 2.3,

FOR ALL WHO ALLREADY FLASHED 2.2 JUST DIRTY FLASH 2.3 OVER. THANKS AND SORRY"

Does slimkat OTA work at all? Just curious.

Thanks guys for the hard work on this ROM!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] d1ez3:
Had 4 reboots this morning on 2.2 dirty flashed 2.3 hoping that takes care of the issue
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dpeeps74:
I don't think so. Last build I told it to refresh manually after the build was on the site and it didn't tell me there was an update. I'm guessing that it's checking for stable releases because if you click the download button it takes me to the 4.3 files.

---------- Post added at 10:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:07 AM ----------

Probably. Were/are you on stock kernel? Just curious as I didn't have any reboots with 2.2 but I'm using BMS. I still threw on 2.3 this morning though, all the same.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
I haven't had a chance to flash 2.3 yet, but I'm hoping slim can add into our device cm's latest Samsung ril code from today's nightly. I'm seeing a major improvement on 4g/3g handoffs and overall better signal. They also updated the builds base to vrucml1 a few days ago + with the ml1 radio, today's update is strong.

Really would like this to make its way here...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] johnnytraveler:
Here's the 2.3 change log. http://slimroms.net/index.php/changelog

Do you see the changes you mention concerning the ril? Always looking to improve signals.

As for ML1, I already flashed that. You don't have to wait for the update to do that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
[MENTION=5160441]johnnytraveler[/MENTION] I don't think you read my post correctly.... I'm on cm, these commits are brand new today and I want it noticed for the next build specifically for our device. Obviously the ml1 radio is optional, but when combined with an actual ml1 base, there is a clear difference. Right now all AOSP builds for our device are using an MF1 base...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] johnnytraveler:
Cool. I never know how fast commits get into other roms. I was hoping that since SlimKat's latest build was last night, maybe they were advised of the new commits. These guys are pretty good, so we should have the new commits by next week build (especially since they are getting ready to release a stable build).

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mightybryan:
Disable Xposed and it will work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NMEAGENT:
What is the difference with art enabled?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
When you open an app up normally on dalvik it takes a few to load up. Now if you keep that app open by hitting the home button and not the back button, when you reopen the app it's immediately loaded up.... That's what art is, but all the time including the initial loading of the app.

I think that's a good analogy..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SkinnyT:
ART is fast but just switching over killed my gps. I'll have to clear map data and see if that helps.

*edit*

I cleared map data, cache, and dalvik. Rebooted and gps is back. My gps has been wonky for months so it could've been a fluke.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] flyestAC:
I enabled ART. After reboot got the android is upgrading message. Running for a couple hours now with no issues. I haven't noticed much of a difference, but some reading I've done says you can see about a 10% speed up in apps loading.

Couple links I checked out..
