5x5

Build 4 installed flawlessly with CWM 6.0.3.1 recovery & runs smooth. Dirty flashed ROM + Gapps, then rebooted and flashed today's KT kernel.

Every week I discover something new & exciting in this ROM- latest is the ability to set silent alarms to trigger different profiles on a schedule. Combined with the wifi triggers, I can achieve almost Tasker-like customization, all right out of the box.

Also threw this on the wife's Captivate, and on our Nook tablet.

Long-winded way of saying THANKS for the awesome work you do. There's no other rom for me!

I rarely ever use it in landscape but it was one of those things I noticed. Go ahead and try it. It's weird.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sajoeee:
Already ahead of you. Just tried it... Nasty. Lol.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CrackerTeg:
Um, what? This isn't a tw ROM. Not sure what you're trying to say here.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jpcdeux:
I understand that. My question sounds pretty clear... While using a touchwiz ROM data seems to work better. Connects better and faster than using this ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] waiters:
Regarding camera.. I'm not sure tbh, I don't use my camera that much but when I do it works.. I tend to only take 20 or so pictures a week though so maybe somebody else can chime in.

Regarding data.. Few things.

First thing I would try is a different modem. Even if your current modem worked fine in touch wiz . there is a thread someplace with modems..you can flash modems regardless of baseband. So just flash and test and go on to turn next one.

Second thing is make sure you are on lte or 3g. What I have noticed is if I have like 1 bar of lte it might move me to full bars of hspa or 3g instead. That could be happening with you (regardless of this still test different modems.. May have better luck with another modem)

Good luck.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DarthDerron:
I'd try what the above user said, try different modems.

this is my first time on a 4.3 Slim build and it's damn zippy. Will judge battery life over the next few days :good:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CrackerTeg:
Right?

The way it was originally worded sounded like you were calling this a tw ROM. Tw ROM's make it look like the signal is better because the icons are doctored a bit compared to AOSP. If you were to look at actual dBm strength, it's the same.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jpcdeux:
If I have tw ROM

I have less issue using data in the same place as I do with a cm10.2ish ROM. On MG2 modem on both
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blk_jack:
The bug is filed and we're looking into it. Thanks for letting us know!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diakonos:
Not sure how relevant this is for others, but I prefer to install a custom font when installing/updating each new Slim ROM version. I've always used ROM Toolbox to install my favorite .ttf file without issue. I've done this successfully with all Slim versions I've used.

However, with 4.3, I got stuck in a bootloop when restarting after using RT to install the normal font file I always use. I reflashed beta 4 to fix the bootloop and then was able to find a (somewhat) similar font using the iFont app that was able to successfully install a font and boot normally without issue.

Not sure how the two apps differ in replacing the system fonts, but iFont worked when ROM Toolbox did not. I'm open to suggestions how to install the custom TTF font I prefer.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sajoeee:
You could try iFont. I use that all the time. If not just flash a font. :o
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diakonos:
Lol, yes iFont worked (as I said in my post).

Well I wasn't reading to clear. I read the first 2 sentences and thought you were having trouble. Sorry about that. I need to read the whole thing before posting. I should get some sleep. Lmao.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diakonos:
As a follow-up, I retried the same TTF font file using iFont's custom font option and it still didn't work. Oh well.

Came from 4.2.2 To beta 4 via cwm 6.0.3.6 with no problems.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DarthDerron:
Was the option to have the camera lockscreen widget removed? I remember it in 4.2.2... at least I think there was an option. If it's in it can someone help me find it lol. I'm blind

This is definitely the smoothest my phone has ever run. Thank you so much. Just wondering, is anyone else having the Google services wakelock? Have no idea where it's coming from.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] android_4life:
Has anybody experience Google Chrome having lag with beta 4? If I pinch zoom or slide the screen across it well freeze for about 5 seconds. It doesn't do it all the time but enough to become annoying. No issues with the default browser though.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] thegame3202:
Longtime user of Task's AOKP. The twitch to flash an update/4.3 were too high. Flashed beta 4 and I'm diggin it! Awesome rom! Thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sajoeee:
Happens to me and also on another rom it did that.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] k29er:
Does LCD density affect games also or just navigation screens
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Jep56:
Same here. Happens when I pinch zoom
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DarthDerron:
Chrome beta seems to work fine when I pinch to zoom. You guys can check it out if you like
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sajoeee:
Same. +1.

Chrome Beta isn't on the play store anymore.. You had to get it when chrome was in beta to install it.. :confused:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DarthDerron:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chrome.beta&hl=en does this link work?

It still receives updates :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sajoeee:
Thanks! Was trying to find this for a long time! (;
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DarthDerron:
I literally searched Chrome Beta on Google and it was the second link lol. Anyways Np, hope it fixes that pinch to zoom freeze and what not :good:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sajoeee:
it did, kinof. but scrolling a little fag causes a freeze up. :p

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sajoeee:
woah.... that wasn't supposed to happen.. lolll. haha.

i need to read before posting.. lol. damn, autocorrect.

i meant, "it did help, but when scrolling fast it causes a little lag" ... :silly:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DarthDerron:
Oh yeah, scrolling lag seems to be an issue in chrome still. I get that sometimes as well.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] datoneazn:
Same here, and I honestly think I will stray away from Task's releases for a bit. He is way to nazi in his thread, I mean I get that he's trying to keep it strict to keep the thread clean, but sometimes a harmless question shouldn't be treated in such a harsh way you know?

Going to flash to beta 4 in a bit, can't wait. Too many people telling me about it :good:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DarthDerron:
Please keep your opinions to yourself. I'm not defending him, but saying things about him really aren't necessary in a development thread. If you do not like the way a dev runs his /their thread then do not use his rom or post in the thread. Simple as that.

Anyways enjoy Slim :good:

Earlier today I used my camera.. Went to a black screen.. I could press home to go back.. End task and try to run again just to get a black screen..

Downloading Beta 4 now. Thanks dude!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kilter1975:
Downloading/installing beta 4 now, is the included modem ideal for GTA/Toronto users? I only ask as there seems to be quite a few Toronto based poster's for this rom

Thanks in advance
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] r_scotter:
Modems aren't included in ROMS. Find the modem thread and flash them on your own til you find one that works for your area.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DarthDerron:
The rom does not overwrite the modem you currently have. Your connection should be more or less the same. If your connection differs, try what the above user said and head over to the modem thread and try some of those out. :good: :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kilter1975:
Thanks for the quick reply's guys..

Well I updated to 4 this morning at like 8, and my battery is better then it's ever been, great update, thanks for the awesome work.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] atrix4nag:
I have installed build 4 freshly on my phone. And dirty flashed on my wife's phone. Both phones battery life is great, but I think its taking more time to charge. I observed this in the morning. Let me check the charging time again tomorrow. I m so addicted to this ROM. Every time I try a different rom, I m coming back in couple of days. Thanks for great ROM guys.

Can't seem to get bluetooth to scan for new devices. I'm pretty sure i've followed the proper install (factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik, latest rom (beta 4) and gapps (from links on slim page)

When I toggle bluetooth off, about ten/fifteen seconds later it toggles itself back on. Scan for new devices ends immediately (no luck with either of the headsets I have laying around...

Willing to log anything if someone can walk me through it, but will need to have bluetooth back for work so will have to revert to my nandroid before work tomorrow..

EDIT: seems that all I needed was to reboot and now its working again....
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] theeggman:
I tried Slim a while ago, but at the time it was not very stable. Ended up going with Task's AOKP ROM. As he appears to be taking a while to upgrade to 4.3, I decided to try Slim again. Aside from a minor default DPI choice (was easy to fix), the beta 4 build runs great. Mostly wanted to say thank you.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Brooklynsour:
Slims been stable as long as I had my g3-black Friday And my phone survived toilet swim....so its ?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] thegame3202:
Yeah, DPI was weird to get used to. But after a day or so, now I can't see myself going back haha

What did you set your DPI to?

Guys, I'm absolutely loving the smoothness of this ROM but having an issue with wakelocks. I posted this earlier but here are some screens. Have no idea what is causing this battery drain as I'm unsure as to why android services would cause so much drain.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bjtheone:
Wifi tethering works. Rogers blocks it (some claim for all connections, some say just over lte). There is a simple fix that either is included in the rom or in testing. Pm me if it does not work for you.

LL1 seems to give me best lte performance but breaks caller id. LE8 works reasonably and has working caller id (at least in ottawa).

beta 4 problems...clean flash

Today was a bad day for my phone....was using Google Maps navigation several times today...

-when I first started it just seemed stuck...it wouldnt update or move at all..backed out tried several times then it started working... almost to destination and Google Maps closes out all of a sudden...no error,just disappeared... restart the app, continue to destination and poof...phone rebooted. started again and worked fine rest of way there.

- 2nd destination- phone rebooted again halfway through. Had already been having problems with streaming blue tooth... seems to crash phone randomly so I had turned if off before using Navigation just in case, but still crashed.

-using Bluetooth for Pandora on way home tonight...started having problems someone else mentioned previously about Pandora not starting new song, having to turn phone back on and it would start. Then eventually it would not start next song at all.. it would act like it was starting a new song, but it would not play, did not show time elapsed, then would skip to next song and do the same thing over and over...it didnt show that it was looking for a signal or any error... sometimes it would queue up the next song...it wouldnt play so it would skip to the next one, then a couple of seconds later it would try starting up the same song it just skipped again... I tried backing out and restarting Pandora but the screen went black and I could not get it to come back on at all...the navigation lights on the phone were still working, but the screen was black and eventually had to reboot phone..... this was a clean flash, not a dirty flash..
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] datoneazn:
Anyone know why I'm getting Google Search has stopped working frequently?

I know I have to update google search, but everytime I do I get the error "Package file was not signed correctly. Uninstall the previous copy of the app and try again.

I tried reflashing gapps again, but still the same problem.

Can anyone help me out? Thanks!

I love the rom, at first it was hard to get used to the DPI but now I'm liking it :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SlothlyDX:
1 you can change the dpi if you wish to do so

2. Have you tried clearing data and cache for the app itself in settings?

3. If that doesn't work use a file Explorer go to the root of your phone and go to system/apps/ then find the app search. Delete it, reboot your phone, and then download in the play store.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blk_jack:
Bluetooth likely crashed (known issue, upstream). What happens is it'll hold wakelock and not let you toggle it again until you kill the bluetooth process or reboot.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blk_jack:
This and the issue above can probably be solved be clearing the app's data/cache.

You can't upgrade slim gapps from the play store since a lot of them are signed by us. You have the latest version, Google just isn't recognizing it since it's signed differently.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] datoneazn:
Alright I see, thanks!

If I have any problems I won't be afraid to ask :)

EDIT: Clearing the apps' data/cache and then updating did not work, still having the same error.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] derberts:
Thanks for the response. However, I haven't enabled bluetooth at all... Does that make a difference?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Brooklynsour:
Clear caches and reflash if continues probably should clean flash
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] goosefraba91:
I've noticed since upgrading to 4.3 and updating my bootloader on my d2att that I have been getting slower LTE speeds for whatever reason. I upgraded the modem and bootloader from I747UCLH9 to I747UCDMG2, and then flashed the back to the old modem to see if that would help, and it hasn't. Can the bootloader or modem affect my connection speed, or do you guys think was I just experiencing slower speeds because the network got bogged down today?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] waiters:
Modem has everything to do with it.. But to my understanding the bootloader doesn't.. Maybe somebody else can confirm?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] waiters:
Is this normal?

All the /0/0?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] theeggman:
300, as the screen is optimized for about 300 DPI as far as I know (stock uses 320 I think). 465 was simply too hard on my eyes to read.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] galakanokis:
One has nothing to do with the other. To fix the problem with Google Now not working clear the data on the app. If that doesn't work likely a clean install is due.

If you want to update from the playstore (version you have is current if using the proper slim gapps) you need to delete the app with a file manager and reboot. Than you can add from the store but you lose the dark option.

G Man
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MercilessLTD:
The modem is only one part of many issues with data speeds (but no, the bootloader would have nothing to do with data speeds). There is always the possibility of tower maintenance, poor signal, apps syncing on a new ROM, etc. I also have an AT&T SGS3, and with 4.3 beta 3 on the MG2 modem clocked 55 Mbps (see my signature). I've noticed that sometimes the first day or two with a new ROM may have some slow speeds, for reasons I haven't a clue (with both AOSP and TW).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] goosefraba91:
Okay thank you for the confirmation. If I don't see an improvement in the next day or so, I will flash some different modems.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tbrummell:
I have this issue as well, except using Play Music streaming local media to my car via BT.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sbs8331:
Recently (since using 4.3?) my lock screen wallpaper looks as if it's overlaid by a glass widget, almost like 25% or 50% transparency. I have my lock screen itself set to 0% transparency (100% removes the wallpaper and shows whatever app is running as the background), and its Dashclock widget set to fully transparent. I've tried turning off lock screen widgets, but this doesn't change, so it's not the widget. What am I missing? How can I get back to where the lock screen wallpaper is as bright as the home screen? Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jermaine151:
That's only normal if you're running a very old version of recovery. The older ones were not equipped to handle the new JellyBean multi user stuff. You'll need to upgrade your recovery and manually clean up your internal memory or wipe it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] waiters:
Thanks! Upgraded recovery and I'll probably clean install next beta anyways and erase storage at that time as well.

Google maps is not saying the street names, It just says, turn right/left. I know its not this rom related, Just want to know, any one know how to fix this?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nsmith4:
Make sure you have Google Text-to-speech selected (under settings>input&language>text to speech) and that your language is downloaded. Also make sure you have a signal when navigating, mine doesn't speak names when I have little to no signal.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] datoneazn:
Works perfect for me, I realized it after going out in the mornings and my car displaying the info for the first time since before I flashed custom roms,

it's the small things that I love and I'm glad I picked slimbean for my first 4.3 rom :good:

Keep up the great work, I couldn't get a developer to add AVRCP to his rom which disappointed me because I don't know how to do it myself when he told me to.

thanks for your help.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] theeggman:
Hangout app has seemingly randomly stopped receiving messages for me (it can send just fine). Googling seemed to suggest reinstalling the app, but this app came with the gapps package for the rom. I assume it has been modified and resigned. Anybody else run into this issue yet (and know of a fix)?
