...and my wifi still does not auto-connect. I have to enter the wifi menu and then it seems to trigger the connection... lol

Btw. the gallery issue came again after flashing the 7.0 update. I just wiped media storage again. And camera still needs 30 seconds to load my gallery xD

Next issue: com.android.music (the stock music app) sometimes crashes. Very unstable app.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
No problems with Wifi..also music running fine. Cam is also bugfree.

Ok, guys. Next build will com from me. I'm now ready with sources and JBX too. Today I will push an JBX update, next Slim Update when SLimRoms updates their sources.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Einheit-101:
Will your slimkat build include JBX from now?

Music runs fine but when changing settings i get a FC. It also crashed one time while using bluetooth audio. I cant wipe data after updates because swype would stop working after a data wipe. I think all those issues are caused by the missing data wipe.

The only way to get the 3.26 swype working on KITKAT is to install it on a 4.3 firmware and then flash a 4.4 rom without wiping its data. I dont know why this is the case. Maybe 4.4 is doing something wrong while installing swype...

€DIT:: i have an idea. I could change swype into a system app using titanium backup. If i wipe data, swype should not be deleted and still work after flashing an update. Could that be possible? Its time to get rid of those issues.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
Unfortunately, turning swype into a system app will only move it into the /system partition, which is always wiped when installing a new ROM: FAIL. [emoji16]

Trying to preserve data on a JB to KK upgrade is a risky business, most people have a host of problems doing that; mostly stability issues like Force Closes, even reboots. That being said, I had to sideline the latest SlimRom because of endemic FC's, and I am waiting to try the first one dtrail1 turns out.

So resorting swype from titanium backup into a 4.4 ROM won't work? I basically quit using third party keyboards in favor of the stock android keyboard when they added swipe to type, it fills my needs; but that's a matter of taste.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Einheit-101:
Basically this should work:

- change working swype into system app

- reboot recovery and wipe data

- reboot system and change swype, which has survived data wipe, into user app again

- reboot recovery and wipe all caches, but NOT WIPE data again

- install rom

- reboot system and there should be a working swype keyboard, but the dictionary is wiped. Using Titanium should bring back the dictionary.

So far the idea, i will make a backup and try it.

€DIT: XDA does redirect my phone everytime to some f***in stupid quizawin advertising rubbish, its almost impossible to read the forum :eek:

Damn advertising is getting more and more annoying!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] RiggsDaRuler:
Forgive me for asking this question if it has already been answered. But..... Is there no way to apply a theme in build 7. Haven't tried slim in a long long time.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
Yeah, I had issues with adaway blocking all links when I clicked on them until xda changed the redirect URL. It's supposed to be a non-intrusive way for xda to get a little money (by tracking us when we leave their site and seeing what, if anything we buy). Pretty bloody invasive of my privacy, if you ask me!

It'll be a real shame if xda looses out to G+ communities because they tick people off.

Pretty involved! So, I'm gathering that for some reason you can't just backup app+data and restore it... Even if you make it a system app on JB, back it up and restore it as such on KK?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Einheit-101:
Nope. Installing Swype 3.26 on any 4.4 ROM will not work for unknown reason. The only known way is to migrate it from a 4.3 ROM, i really wonder what kind of error is causing the wrong installation on KitKat. I will try to create a new backup and restore it on 4.4.4, maybe it works there.

€DIT::: my hack worked. I have done a factory reset with swype as system app. It survived and i changed it to user app again, then i restored a backup to get the dictionary back.

Written with Motorola stock Swype 3.26 on 4.4.4 SlimKat build 7.

€DIT 2::: The factory reset fixed my download manager, but my wifi still does not auto connect. I have to enter the wifi settings menu OR turn screen off, then it suddenly connects.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Swype always had too bad performance in my opinion. Swiftkey is way better.

I am going to start merging latest updates from Slim repos for new build. Besides that I will start fixing init.d too - since a weird commit from CM init.d is broken on most KK roms - if you didn't notice that, please check yours and report back. Maybe I am wrong, but I guess it happened on most builds. Since cm uses "install-cm.recovery.sh" instead of "install-recovery.sh", init.d seems not working anymore, even they stated it still works. Also this commit should not be necessarry for us, as we donÄt use CM's recovery or qwhatever this is. Best way is to revert this and see if it fixes initial script support. Hang on a few days until I will buuild new SLim builds.

BTW: All JBX users, please check the new TEST build.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Einheit-101:
dtrail, maybe the newest swype version 1.x (from play store) has a very poor performance due to some little bugs, BUT i am talking about the good old 3.26 Swype powered by Motorola. It has a great performance, no lags, nothing. But it has no option to sync the dictionary.

Anyways, keep on your good work. Latest JBX running fine for me. The only issue with SlimKat is this failing WiFi autoconnection, but thats no problem.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] SoccerRef12:
I'm having a problem losing ringtones & music playlist when I reboot. I suspect that the SD card, where all those things are, doesn't mount right away on boot. Any suggestions? Might have to do a re-install? Thanks in advance for any recommendations. 8-/
[Motorola Droid RAZR] solidshree:
Flashing latest JBX build should solve...., if still not, then install a module - "KITKAT SD CARD FULL ACCESS" and/or "HANDLE EXTERNAL STORAGE" from xposed installer. Your all sd card issues will get resolved...,
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
There are SD card issues which are resolved by just flashin JBX?? Well, I can remember I once out a fix into ramdisk to get all correct mountpoints for SD Card... Interesting this still happens. [MENTION=1027303]altered[/MENTION], you saw this?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] SoccerRef12:
I tried installing the latest JBX Kernel twice and it went into a boot loop. :crying: Should I do a clean install of SlimKat first?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] alteredlikeness:
I saw it now :)

And, this [MENTION=1027303]altered[/MENTION] person must be confused why he keeps getting mentioned ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
lol, I just mentioned you because I wasn't sure if this is the reason for SD card issues actually. I reverted the related commit some days ago. But now I know I hve to re-revert it again. :) However, for the very first build I am going to build for all devices I might need you for a couple of questions - MAYBE! :D
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kristofa:
Hello all,

Just would like to see if anyone is experiencing a little battery drain problem?

Already did wipe the machine before flashing the new rom and it's eating up 15% of 4 hours stand-by.

I had it turned on and did not touch it. Is it normal?

Thank you so much for reply.

cheers
[Motorola Droid RAZR] alteredlikeness:

[Motorola Droid RAZR] GreatItami:
No theme engine?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] maximus1965:
Usually not on slim roms.

There are plenty of others with it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] GreatItami:
Anyway I can still CM theme engine in it?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Exxonvaldez:
I also was not happy with the battery performance. I was on 5.8 and also had nothing but lags. Also sometimes I got the "unable to initialize camera" error. I wiped everything, formatted system and flashed 7.0. Still lags lags lags.

What really helped was to delete the camera.apk and install the Motorola cam from the jbx kernel ZIP.

Battery drain dropped by almost 50%. No more lags. No more black screen delay on wakeup.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] TuoNonno:
This seems to do the trick... thanks :)

[Motorola Droid RAZR] maximus1965:
Yes, strange.

I am using slimkat 7.6 with stock kernel on xt910 in stock slot.

Everyting working, very light, smooth and fast rom. Battery performance is also good.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Crumplet:
What bugs are current atm?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] deboyz1014:
Slimkat has always been good that I'll agreed. Only reason I'm not using it is slimrecent, still hate thing.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] maximus1965:
If i find a bug i will post it here :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Einheit-101:
One bug i have is with camera.

I have ~2000 pictures. If i start camera and try to swype to the left to open gallery, it doesnt work. The gallery is loading forever and after ~14 seconds i am able to open it. I dont know if its because i have so many photos, but maybe.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Decon1:
LOL! Yeah, no bugs that I know of except OTA doesn't look like it's working. I get 'Update: Cannot read SlimOTA properties'. Sweet ROM!

Einheit-101 - Maybe try QuickPic instead of Gallery...but sheesh! 2000+ pics, WOW!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] vikernes7:
I have a bug here. I did a dirty flash over previous slimkat, on reboot I looked for Google play store and it was absent.

I had a titanium backup image of play store, restored it and it went like normal.

When I tried to download an app, it force closed and now I can't download or update anything inside store.

Is play store contained inside gapps or the rom itself? And why it suddenly disappeared?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Exxonvaldez:
As i said before, replacing the camera that comes with slimkat with the Motorola cam from jbx kernel changed the entire behavior of the Rom. Give it a try.

I am back to battery results from JB. After two days I have 45% left. Yeah. Btw I use power guard and ds battery saver.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
Are you using the stock Motorola camera, or the Motorola X camera? The stock one doesn't let you save photos to external SD...

- Brian
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Einheit-101:
Of course stock slimkat cam lets me save to SD card.

I think the loading is so slow because all that pics are on SD card and those phone card readers are slow like hell, just too much for this poor piece of Hardware.

I was dissppointed in moto X camera months ago (i used it) so i went back to the slim cam.

Btw. The camera flash is bugged sometimes. This bug is old. I think it is caused by hardcoded Motorola drivers....
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
I meant the old stock Motorola camera from Jellybean won't save to external. I should hope the bundled slim camera would. ;)

Give me a thanks if I've helped you, I can't feel a high-five!

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Einheit-101:
No issues with 3G but i have the same issues like ever since 5.6 ... wifi auto-connection doesnt work correctly and stuff, but that`s not the problem.

I found out that it is impossible to send some files via bluetooth (Something with "This device is not able to process this file"), i have to put the files into a .zip, then i can send without problems...

It seems there is a hard-coded security check for some file extensions that does not allow receiving them. Seriously, we`re not living 1921. I suggest removing this annoying unneccessary security feature so i can send whatever i want between my devices without zipping :/

Well now I cannot boot into safestrap couse I cannot see its bootscreen.Damn.Can I somehow flash safestrap via fastboot?Please advise
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
Unfortunately, if you can't get to SafeStrap, you will need to RSDlite the proper image back on your phone. You can't RSD SafeStrap, since it doesn't replace your old recovery, just hijacks it and requires a working stock "slot" installation. Also, as you have an xt910, there is no simple utility to use and you have to have the correct stock image for your carrier.

Did you make sure you used the umts versions of both SafeStrap AND ROM image? That's what will usually cause the "M" bootloop. Wiping the stock slot from SafeStrap and not installing or restoring a ROM will also delete SafeStrap and render your phone unbootable.

If you are landing on the "dead Andy" and can get your hands on the latest OTA zip from your carrier and place it on the root of your SD card, try volume up and down together, you might be able to "install update" from stock recovery... This would prevent wiping the internal SD card which happens when you have to RSD.

Good luck, and tell us your tale...

Can't encrypt SlimKat XT912

I'm running with slimkat 4.4.4 version 7.6 and safestrap 3.73. My employer's Exchange email active sync requires that Android devices be encrypted. I follow the instructions to encrypt phone, but it doesn't work. When I click on the final "Encrypt Phone" button the line drawing picture of the encrypting android guy comes up, but phone doesn't reboot and start encrypting. It just sits there not encrypting. I waited for an hour for it to complete. The screen had blanked, so I pushed the power button and the little green android guy was still there with no progress bar, no text saying that encryption is in progress. I hit the back and it took me back to the screen with the "Encrypt Phone" prompt again. Home took me to my home screen and everything was working except that the status and notification bars were missing. I manually rebooted and phone was back to normal. I've tried encrypting again and same thing happens.

I really need work email on my phone. Any suggestions? I guess I should update to slimkat 9, but everything seems to be working so well on 7.6 that I haven't bothered. Is there something about slimkat and/or safestrap that prevents encryption? The option is there in the security menu, but it doesn't work for me.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Update - I found a post by mcfood at http://androidforums.com/threads/how-to-encrypt-a-rooted-device.866968/ that seems to have an answer, but I don't know that it will work for slimkat. One option is to temporarily deactivate supersu from apps management menu, but I don't have supersu app installed as su is built into the ROM. Other option is to kill the daemonsu service, but that didn't seem to do anything either. Not sure what the name of the su service is in slimkat. Suggestions?

CDMA to GSM Patch

If you are using a GSM sim card on a verizon XT912, you won't be able to send messages or access USSD codes (balance messages, popup menus, etc).

As a solution, you will have to flash a GSM enabling patch which will make changes in build prop file to enable gsm as default and a couple of other things. You will have to flash this patch everytime you flash a new rom or do a factory reset as build prop gets replaced. A backup is made of the build prop by this patch, so if you flash it 2 times, the backup gets restored and so on.

The attached patch has worked for me on all spyder roms since Jelly bean (custom or Stock).

Hope it helps!! :good:

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] MrRJx:
I've had my One for a few months. Love the phone, but that's not the point.

I recently found a working DS Emulator (DraStic) that works amazingly. (Though it kills my battery fast.) This inspired me to get all my other emulators (Gameboid, GBCoid, N64oid, etc.) running for future needs.

The thing is when I start it up, load a ROM, and start playing the emulator doesn't have an "A", "B", "L", "R" on-screen. Apparently, those buttons are linked PHYSICALLY to other buttons on the phone (i.e. Camera, Vol +, Vol -).

Not a problem. Or so I thought:

I thought I could easily activate the on-screen buttons but no. Which I found odd because when I ran the emulator for both my Motorola Droid 3 and OG Droid, I had no problem using these through the same APK.

After days of searching Google, I've come to a conclusion that the HTC One is inherently compatible. I, however, cannot find any definitive answer to these questions. If someone could explain the situation or lead me to place I could myself would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Also, I have searched ALL HTC One forums for this issue. Hope I didn't miss it. LOL :fingers-crossed:
