lol... I just tried that, worked perfectly.. Thanks for the reply

---------- Post added at 01:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:39 AM ----------

Next ? Anyone else have navigation bar showing up after every reboot? Is there a way to fix it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Is it enabled in Settings/Navigation? If not, maybe toggle it on then off and see if it pops up after a reboot. I happen to like using the softkeys lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] countryfolk07:
Just used torch and it caused a reboot. Couple visual glitches here and there. Since the new theming is being worked on I would expect that. Pretty stable otherwise. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nicklovell23:
You guys having front or rear cam issues? Its weird rear cam is fine on d2usc. Front cam is jacked though. I'm working on it I'll let u know if I get it fixed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] newbie4ever:
No, it's not enabled... But it still shows up, I have to toggle it on then off after a reboot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Rear cam is definitely not working. I honestly can't try FFC cuz the camera locks up and causes immediate reboot. Appreciate you looking into it Nick. Any progress on tethering? It doesn't seem to actually work regardless of the settings.

Hmm, are you using an Xposed module like GravityBox? I'm trying to think what would give you a navbar at the bottom on reboot even if its disabled. Does it do the same thing on a fresh flash and full wipe?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dpeeps74:
The cam is screwy for sure. I tried the other one that's linked in here and it works as long as I don't switch to ffc. If I switch cameras it requires a reboot. The stock one takes one photo before it goes crazy with some duplicate image and static on the bottom of the screen and the same behavior switching cameras.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] johnnytraveler:
+1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sammymcalaxy:
Same issue here, can't figure it out. With as many FC's as I've been having, I'd at least like to clean up my reboots...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samsgun357:
Does it also invert Gapps?

Its only weird if it doesn't work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
Why have I not tried slimkat yet?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] newbie4ever:
Yes I'm using gravity box, but it's not enabled there either... Its no big deal, I was just testing the rom... I'm on gummy for the time being... (I can't seem to stay on one rom more than a few days ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
SlimKat TRDS themes Browser, Calendar, People, Phone, Messaging, Settings, and the AOSP keyboard. I think that just leaves out GMail, Google Search (not included with Slim Minimal gapps so it would not theme anyway), and YouTube from TRDS. This is with the latest SlimKat Minimal gapps.

(Scorpion voice) Get over here!

Ahh, see GravityBox is your problem. I follow that module thread and I know it causes weird issues with custom roms. I've tried it with this rom before and even if you don't toggle certain items, it modifies them without your input. It does say in the GB module's OP not to try it with Slim among other roms like Omni. I'm using Greenify and XHalo modules and they play fine with this rom on every release. Enjoy the crack flashing! Haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] slvfox:
Is there a way to add my custom ringtone. I noticed the ringtones are .ogg files and the file I'm trying to use is a .wav file. Works on TW roms but I have been unable to get it to work on 4.3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kinnerful:
Use a audio converter to make it an ogg or mp3 file.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samsgun357:
Use a root file manager app (make sure has root privileges) I use root browser. Navigate to system/app and long press gallery2.apk and change it to gallery2.bak, you could probably just delete it but I didn't. Then go to where you have the other camera apk, (sdcard/download)

and long press it and hit copy, paste it in system/app. Long press it to fix permission to rw-r--r-- or 644 (same thing) reboot and profit!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
Don't forget to tap the app after setting permissions to actually install it...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samsgun357:
Once you fix permissions and reboot it installs itself.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
I never knew that...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] slvfox:
Anyone else sms msg's not sending? I cleared data and still can not send.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
Sms+mms both working fine here, sending and receiving.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wi1son:
Well, I've tried Carbon, Slim & PA. Definitely sticking with Slim - Perfect ROM!

SCH-I535 on SlimRom & KT747
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samsgun357:
I have an issue, seen this on a few ROMs, just trying to get some insight. When I long press back to kill apps, sometimes it kills the app and sometimes it shows the toast message but doesn't kill the app. Why does this happen?

Eat Play Google
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RayMcGrath:
What's the word on lockscreen options?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
What's your question?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RayMcGrath:
You honestly don't understand??

Kinda smug.

Will there be any lockscreen options in the future??

You know... When one can change the look and behavior of the lockscreen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
Do you mean options that are different than the lockscreen options in the security section?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RayMcGrath:
Thanks. That's all you had to say. I appreciate your help. I've never seen them there before.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] slvfox:
I have tried reflashing the rom, fixing permissions and clearing data and still not able to send sms
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] d1ez3:
With new camera apk I can't see my pictures that I take in snapchat (I know..). They come out as black for me
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] flyestAC:
Hey all... I'm running into a problem with build 2. I've tried multiple clean flashes (internal sd/system/data/cache/dalvik). Once I'm up and running first thing I do is install the camera fix that was posted. When I reboot I get stuck at the Samsung screen with the CM dude every time.

Possibly a bad download?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
Could be. I'd dirty the rom/gapps and boot back into the rom. This happens only when you add the camera?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nicklovell23:
The cam is fixed no need to flash the cam fix. There was the first beta 2 that came out before it was fixed the one on the site as of late last night early this am.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
I wanted to apologize for the modded camera recommendation. For some reason it's not working on 1.9 This is the first time I have had it reported to me that it is not completely functional. I have used just about it on just about every other 4.4.x Rom out there. So I guess for now you guys cant use it. I know it was working on 1.8 cuz I was using it for a minute before going back to PA. maybe it has something to do with the overall Camera issues but I cannot be certain. Sorry guys was just trying to help. Happy Holidays!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sixstringedmatt:
Apologies if this has been covered. I finally want to make the jump from 4.3 Stable 2 to a 4.4 variant. I downloaded the weekly 1.6 build since it seems to be the most stable and I keep getting the Status 7 Error through CWM 6.0.3.1.

I have re-downloaded 1.6 and tried installing as well as also trying the 1.9 build and it gives me the same error. Updating via the SlimOTA never proved to be an issue and this only happens since I have to manually use CWM to install the KitKat builds.

Any suggestions here? Thanks in advance!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stranger_84:
Upgrade cwm to 6.0.4.3 which is needed for kitkat
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sixstringedmatt:
That would make sense. I've always been hesitant to upgrade since when I first rooted this thing and selected TWRP I got the yellow triangle. Is there a preferred method to upgrading? Flash through recovery?

Also, does this version affect 4.3 variants in case I need to flash back?

Thanks!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] m_s_ifland:
On the last 2 weekly builds of SlimKat, every now and then I get a message that says "no APN specified on device" and I can't send or receive text messages. Everything else works fine. Then when I reboot messages start working again. In the mobile network settings APN is grayed out and can not be selected. I did a search and didn't find anything. Anyone else experiencing this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stranger_84:
I use ez recovery from the play store ... Download the latest from clockworkmod.com and flash it thru that app ... Never had a problem ... And no it won't affect anything I been using it with no issues
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sixstringedmatt:
Many thanks - I ended up using Rom Manager to get this done. I noticed 4.4 doesn't have the option to disable the HW keys, so I might stick to 4.3 a bit longer.

Love SlimRom - haven't considered another ROM since originally flashing SlimBean for my i535. Definitely miss the Google experience - might have to consider the jump off of Verizon in the next few months but this ROM is keeping me content for now!

Thanks again all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jsmitty90:
Has anyone that used this ROM also use hellfire ROM? If so, which is better in your opinion?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stranger_84:
I JUST flashed hellfire with kt747 kernel and not sure which but one of em made it not glitch ... Sim wouldn't register and a few other issues ... Who knows I'm gonna mess with it later I been trying em all but wanna stick with kt's kernel lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] flyestAC:
Nandroid and try em both. I don't want to read your "which ROM is better" conversations in here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] griz.droidx:
So since I've read that the camera is borked on 1.9 has anyone tried the fix you can flash posted by spencer or slimsnoop? It's a zip I found on another forum but was a bit old. Here's the name of it. SlimISP_JH.bin.zip
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SkinnyT:
I'm looking to finally jump over to slim kat and was wondering how you guys may recommend wiping my device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sixstringedmatt:
Wipe data, cache, and format system as per the original post. Worked well for me coming from 4.3 slimbean.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] griz.droidx:
My camera actually worked fine took three pics or so. Then one using FFC then I hit the back button and it rebooted the phone. I'm guessing it's just the way it is now. I did read a few pages back but I'll go through them again just to see if in missing a fix. Also. I couldn't find a way to change themes. I didn't see it in display or interface unless I just looked over it. The t mo theme engine that is

Forgot to say thanks for the work on the build. I'm not *****ing in any way. Just pointing out some things I've noticed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] OMG_VTEC:
How do you turn off the hard key lights? And is there anyway to see when the updates are incorporated into builds? Without looking at the change log? Seems like a simple addition to the op would be sufficient.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] johnnytraveler:
Happy Christmas everyone.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RayMcGrath:
I m sorry if its been covered but I can't find the answer to how to change DPI in 4.4.2. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] johnnytraveler:
Try this. I should add it's easy, works for me and nothing against apps, but prevents me from having to load another one. I went with 280 dpi, kinda medium-large.

Sent from my KitKat Galaxy S3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] carpdeeem:
The TexDroider app was pointed out earlier in the thread also... easy to use and seems to work well for everybody who has tried (me included).

May very well just be my Bluetooth device having an issue with 4.4, but I've figured out at least part of the problem/solution. The phone negotiates the initial connection just fine, but the automatic Bluetooth time-out seems to not work. If I turn off my car and walk away, the phone is supposed to recognize that the Bluetooth device has been disconnected after 2 minutes and automatically stop trying to reestablish the connection. In 4.3 and prior, this worked perfectly.

In 4.4 however, the phone never automatically disconnects and will continually attempt to reestablish the connection (killing the battery in the process). The only way to reconnect to the device after this is to forget the Bluetooth connection, reboot the phone, then repair the devices. However, I've found that if I manually power off Bluetooth before leaving the car, the phone receives the disconnect command and is able to reconnect successfully next time around.

Hopefully helpful information to anybody else having similar trouble or for dev purposes. Thanks as always!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] beepea206:
I'm going to give this a try... I sync my phone to my home surround sound system via BT and noticed it won't reconnect, but it keeps trying to do so. Maybe a sound system power down will send the 'kill' signal and resolve the problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] johnnytraveler:
Hey, you may be on to something! :) I tried this in my car and it worked every time! I turned off the auto connect feature on the car stereo. Then I powered off the radio noticing my phone's bt disconnected. Turned on the radio again and it reconnected! When I left the radio's auto connect feature on, the phone's bt never disconnected. When I get home I'm gonna try this with my bt speaker and headphone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Hey [MENTION=4408910]nicklovell23[/MENTION],

Random SlimKat 1.9 bug report: the charging icon while the S3 is powered off is all screwed up. It is just a greyed out, block symbol.

Edit: Stock kernel, clean flash btw.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Quick 4:
Anyone get a random update in their settings for tap and pay?

Scratch that, I've never used nfc before and turned it on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sevinex:
Yes I received that, and for a couple seconds was pretty excited about being able to use Tap and Pay, until it redirected me back to the standard Google Wallet... A bummer indeed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stevo11:
I do believe we can use tap and pay though from the regular Google wallet now without any kind of workaround. Wallet enabled the tap and pay and loaded my credit card up correctly.... Now to try it in store
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] IIDr0iDJuNkiEII:
How stable is this? Daily driver quality? I know it's rock solid on my Flo :) and all kinds of screwy on my Toro..:eek:

Thanks..:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] deuce237bblock:
I've been using SlimKat as my daily since beta 1.5. The only one I skipped was 1.8, there are some issues like camera and tether that are keeping people from using the ROM as a daily driver but I don't use those features very much. Hope this helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] IIDr0iDJuNkiEII:
Thanks!:good: Appreciate the response...:)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shonalex:
I was using the 1.6 the most. I think it is the best one with the most working features. Use 1.6 with the most recent gapps. That's probably the best combination to use.

Another thing to note though is that they might likely have another release today. I'm not sure with Christmas and everything. Hopefully those guys are taking a break and hanging with their families/friends. Love the ROMs guys! Happy holidays!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] IIDr0iDJuNkiEII:
Usually Sunday... Laaaaate Sunday.....:crying:

Might just flash 4.3.1 beta 2.2. Worked awesome on my Gnex. Funny thing is all the SlimKat betas work FLAWLESSLY on my Flo.:good:

This is gonna be a daily driver for a family member so....:D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GideonX:
If anyone is itchy to flash, I built beta 1.96 the other day. Unofficial of course, enjoy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] johnnytraveler:
You have several builds. Any preferences or one you are fond of?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GideonX:
Currently on AoCP, but slim is pretty good from what my testers have said.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stevo11:
OK, 1.9 was going pretty well at first but now the camera reboots are starting to drive me nuts. Is it working correctly on any earlier builds? Is there a third party solution that fixes it?

All other aspects of the ROM are perfect though
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Pretty sure most AOSP roms are flawless on Nexus devices due to the availability of drivers, stock images, and what have you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lepa71:
I kind of have to ask. How is the battery on this one(standby, screen time etc...)? Does slim only have everything inverted(ROM, Gapps) or I it's just a theme? Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] countryfolk07:
I think battery on this is great after a few days of settling out. Also they are working in the new inverted toggle. A lot of it works, but they are making some changes to make it much better. Go to the site and read about it. I'm loving slim. Only issues I'm having are tether doesn't work and FFC causes phone to reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] d1ez3:
2.0 builds are coming, looks like its not up for our device just yet though
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
Umm, what is the "chamber of secrets".....

Whatever it is, that's awesome!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Interflop:
Looks like the 2.0 builds are up for our device! Should I wait for the GAPPS builds now?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] countryfolk07:
They stated the GAPPS are the same as the last ones on their homepage.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] d1ez3:
phone is insanely slow so far on clean flash of 2.0 trying to get the apps to stop auto downloading. anyone else?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I'm still on build 1.9, but on every rom flash I skip everything except the wifi page in the Setup Wizard then do the following:

-Go into Settings/Backup & Reset, then deselect all options

-Sign into Gmail

-Open up Play Store and stop any of the gapps from updating, then go into Play Store settings and turn off the auto-update options

I would then use TiBu but naturally everyone is different.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tvl76:
Flashed 2.0. Camera works...yea
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stevo11:
Can we dirty flash 2.0 or should we clean wipe
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Sure you could, however Nick's disclaimer follows...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tvl76:
Dirty worked for me
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jaguarpaw:
running 2 beta and all is well. Is there a setting for the DPI?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Sweeeeeeeeet! :laugh::good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] d1ez3:
thanks, seems to be fine now, I usually can get it to stop downloading apps. Performance seems normal now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Found it in the rom!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] markapowell:
I have tried to install kik kat 4 times. Every time I get "failed". and information saying error Binary update can not be found
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] deuce237bblock:
What is this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] countryfolk07:
Tether is better. My daughters Kindle sees it just as the phone reboots. So it causes a reboot now. But camera works! Yay!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cr4ck3r4lif3:
Update your recovery?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Not a damn clue buts it's in the changelog and in Dev Options
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] david_hume:
Are you serious!? Finally, I can try out SlimKat. The camera constantly breaking was what was causing me to stay away from the ROM.

Next ROM to try out: SlimKat
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RayMcGrath:
Wow I think this slimkat beta 2 is the best 4.4 ROM yet! thanks so much! Is there a theme engine?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jaguarpaw:
It is very nice. But how are you dealing with the DPI? Everything is so tiny.. I went to the FAQ but I don't see any option to change the setting within the ROM. I love the ROM but need to work this out.

Thank you!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RayMcGrath:
I USED build.prop editor in ROM manager and toward the bottom there's a DPI value that I changed to 300. Then reset market.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tvl76:
Or..... Get used to the small DPI like I have and not worry bout it. I love the small DPI. 245 and not looking g back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stevo11:
WiFi is fd up for me on this build, having trouble detecting any networks and getting drops on on the ones I do manage to connect to

Edit: decided to wipe and flash again and it looks like it's working now. May have been a bad flash at first.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] d1ez3:
The stock rom dpi is one of my favorite things about slim. Does anyone have a workaround for the home button for it not to go back to the home page when waking the device?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tvl76:
I think that is part of the launcher settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] flyestAC:
You can use Texdroid from the play store until they get DPI settings baked in.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] caveritt:
Camera is working great but still cannot get photosphere working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PsiPhiDan:
May I ask why? I've used Slim and loved it, but haven't seen much difference at all between 4.4 ROMs so far.

Thinking of jumping over to Slim now that it has the working camera, just looking for a push.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jaguarpaw:
Is there a way to take a screenshot?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samsgun357:
Hold volume down and power.

Is hold back to kill app in the new build? I mean on hard keys not nav bar. That's the only feature that I'm really truly missing.

Its only weird if it doesn't work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
Ok eventually I'll flash this. It seems to have everything I want in a rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kentedman:
Same here with wife tether. Activating it causes reboot.. But it is visible on the network for a split second before it crashes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Nah, there's no native button remap options from what I can tell.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ryanstfl:
Go to system/usr/keylayout/sec_touchkey.kl

Swap back and menu is what I do personally, save and reboot. Works fine enough until it's put back into the kk roms!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jcurley:
Does this rom support USB audio out? I looked and can't find anything on that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kennyho35:
OK I've tried everything! When I use clockwork recovery and try to install the zip I get operation failed....? Any ides? Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] :
You need to be on the most up to date cwm
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tvl76:
Settings/ navigation/ global menu
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
That's for the power menu. The user was looking for hardware button remap options.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RayMcGrath:
I really like the dark dialer, MMS and it just seems to run really well on my device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tvl76:
Right on. I thought user wanted the screenshot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] d1ez3:
Is there any way to get long press menu button to have a custom action?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
Yes, use nova launcher.... You can remap long pressing of home/menu, but not back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daturkel:
do people feel like 2.0 is stable enough to use as a daily driver? stuff like wifi and camera *have* to work for me
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
