We're probably looking at tomorrow for the Build 2 update if anyone is wondering.

In case anyone wants to click 'refresh' all night waiting to see when the update is uploaded...

This is where the file should be available. Note this is not the usual download page. They put the stable builds on this page and the weekly builds somewhere else.

http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewcategory/586-jfltetmo

So if you have the weekly builds download page bookmarked, you will not find this week's stable Build 2 there. Use the link above. As of right now that page only has the Build 1 from last month though.

So they're marking the next update as an official release, nice (:

Updated to the newest stable build and all of a sudden I am receiving errors that my sd card is damaged and must be formatted. Nothing different with my phone, other than simply installed the latest build.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] -FuRBz-:
of course it gets released when i just flashed the newest weekly..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ghettoc401:
Maybe I'm slow but how do I change the pixel density? I made sure to enable developer options, then allow root through there. Then I went to the Settings -> Advanced Options -> Superuser -> Settings -> and made sure that "apps and adb" was selected for root access.

Every time I try to change the pixel density, it errors out and says "An error occurred. Please check for root access. To activate go into superuser settings and enable root access." Titanium and 3 other apps are able to get root with no problem, so I'm lost here.

EDIT: Nvm, just set it through build.prop.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] extrem0:
coincidence or not, I just got my sandisk ultra 32gb broken after a few hours. Probably my fault.. :/

-edit

the only system that was reading my card was slimbean. Even twrp couldn't read my sdcard, even linux or windows. So I managed to repair it by formatting, but wasn't able to backup.

I just did a clean flash of v2 and I must say it's insanely fast and I love it, better than all the previous builds. The only problem that I seem to be having (had it also in v1.8) is that my phone still thinks it's connected to my wifi even when I'm miles away from my house :eek:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] tlopez1973:
Try this option in WiFi setting see if the helps you just uncheck it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] brando56894:
That option is already enabled :-\

It's supposed to be, uncheck it lol (:

How bout you update your damn kernel! Lol

Did that too. Flashed 4th time, clean flash with kts latest kernel.

Camera works fine, I can also take video just can't play the Damn video.

Even with default GPU table? Does it happen immediately after a clean flash of the ROM and kernel even before restoring any data?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] snguyen0730:
I'm having a problem of my phone waking up and skip lockscreen. Coming from previous build to build 2 with cache wipe. Rebooting the phone fixes it but halfway through the day, the problem comes back. Anyone else?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tunasty:
It was working fine till I restored my data. So now i'm going to flash again and not restore anything and see if that works out.

Edit: I remember it worked even after restoring my data but after couple hours, it stopped. I'll update in a few.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tunasty:
Update: gallery still crashes. Flashed 6 times, gallery works fine in the beginning but after a day or so, it starts crashing again. Not sure if it's related to an app or what. Attaching all the log files.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] aaldiar:
I have had no issues, still on first install. Did a complete wipe and I am using chronic kernel. Build 2 is running smooth for me and great battery life. No gallery crashes or other crashes yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tunasty:
I have no clue why I'm having issues. Like I said, after flashing, it works fine. It even worked after installing my apps. Then next day, it started crashing. Hopefully someone will look at the logs.

Have you tried flashing various gapps? One set might like your setup better than another?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nestoh:
Only problems I've had with this ROM, which have been in every build, is that since I charge my phone over night, I turn it off and in the morning when I turn it on it gets stuck in the Samsung splash screen so I have to remove the battery and etc. Then there's times where it doesn't even fully charge it, but like I said it's in every build and it happens randomly, less than occasionally. A new thing in this build and the last weekly, with instagram I get green lines in my picture when taking it from the front camera, not a big thing but still you know.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tunasty:
This has happened with me as well. Im not sure if thats a 4.3.1 bug but I haven't seen it happen on any other rom. I've used Slim, Task's and IOKP and only slim happens to do this.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] DeezNotes:
This isn't just a slim rom issue. This has been talked about in the CM and PAC threads as well.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] DigitalUnderground:
The hanging splash screen has been discussed for weeks now. Its a ramdisk issue in the kernel. You don't need to do a battery pull. Just hold the power button for 10 sec
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] projectpaki:
Does flashing rom's change the Wifi Mac address? I'm trying to register my phone and they are asking for serial #, and wifi mac address, and I am getting an error of invalid combination. I read that sometimes these values change when flashing. There was a flashable zip that I found to revert this back to original, but it was specific to another rom. An ideas?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lvlonkey:
I've been on slim roms since I had a gs2 and it almost always has been amazing. However, there is one issue that keeps happening to me. Whenever I am connected to wifi, I can not receive or send MMS. Yes, my mobile data connection is still on while I am connected to WIFI. I know I should be able to send/receive MMS even with wifi on because I have done it on stock/stock based roms. It usually switches the connection for the short moment it needs to send/receive automatically. However, I am not able to do the same on slim roms. MMS will stay stuck at sending forever and MMS will always fail to download when receiving. Can someone please help?! This is my biggest annoyance to an otherwise nearly perfect rom. I can send and receive perfectly when I am not connected to WIFI.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
You might have a settings conflict. I know the rom supports this because I get MMS while on wifi all the time.

Try switching the apn to the ipv6 one. This is a total shot in the dark buts its easy enough to try.

Sent from your phone. You should be more careful where you leave that thing.

Just a head's up. It looks like there is going to be a build 2.1 coming shortly before Slim moves onto KitKat for weekly builds.

The changes won't be severe. Just a few minor tweaks to satisfy the flashaholics among us until SlimKat starts rolling out. Look for a release within a week for SlimBean 2.1.

Should give you something to mess with until SlimKat is usable as a daily driver

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nestoh:
Nice! (:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lvlonkey:
Switching the APN to the ipv6 completely borks my mobile data. Can you share your settings please?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Switch it to ipv6, turn data off.

Reboot.

Then turn data back on. Wait a good 2-3 minutes. See if data comes back on.

If it connects at all, it will connect in 1-2 seconds in the future. Something about that first time connecting to the ipv6 network that sometimes takes a while.

As for my settings...that is my settings. I'm using the ipv6 APN for T Mobile that came built into the ROM.

If this doesn't work, and it was a shot in the dark anway, do a full wipe and reinstall to test and see if the problem is solved. Make a Nandoird first so you can go back if it doesn't help. But do a fresh install of the ROM, reboot and see if the problem remains. If it's gone, problem solved. Reinstall all your apps and settings and use the new install.

If that doesn't work...I'm totally stumped.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nestoh:
The slim thread has never been so dead before lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tunasty:
Which means rom is running smoothly :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nestoh:
As always, but I'm a flashaholic so I get bored of my phone when there's no updates lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Normally I think posts like this are just whiny lame garbage.

But after I spent an hour and a half last night searching Google Play for a widget (nothing specific mind you, just any widget) that could add to my phone because I was desperate to update it, I probably have to admit that I understand what you mean complete!!!!! :D I ended up settling on a moon phsae widget to tell me the phases of the moon. Why? Because I needed to add SOMETHING. ANYTHING!!! :silly:

I have also cought myself checking the Slim website more than once daily for updates on SlimKat builds. As if the site is going to be different at 1:30 than it was at 1:00. :eek:

On that note however, I do have news about SlimKat builds.

Over on the i9505 Internatioanl Variant forums the maintainer for Slim's S4 builds posts regularly. He's been very clear that work on 4.4 KitKat builds of Slim will be underway shortly. But the Slim team does not like widespread release of alpha/beta builds. They like to have something that's stable and usable from the first release. Where most roms compile something and send it out to let the world test it, they like to test the crap out of it to work out major issues before release. .

When they have something that works well enough for daily use, we'll start seeing weekly builds of KitKat.

Remember, a lot of that stability depends on CyanogenMod. This is a CM based rom. While Slim tweaks the CM code, the core of the ROM is CM. So CM has to iron out most of the serious issues before Slim can use the base CM code to build a stable Slim rom. Of course that's a two way street. The Slim devs aren't rookie amatures at thsi stuff and they fix thigns that are broken in CM and send the changes to CM for inclusion in the base code. It's not like the Slim developers are just sitting around waiting for CM to be perfect.

So fear not fellow flashaholics! There will be more to come soon.

(I know Tylog was messing with 2.1 and 2.2 builds of SlimBear 4.3 just to make an absolutely perfect release of 4.3 before 4.4 started to roll. But thus far they haven't been released.)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Rauch:
SlimKat has a nice new boot animation. Can't seem to get it past that on the S4 for the time being.

S4 is poppin!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lvlonkey:
Finally got around to doing a fresh install. Same problems :(. Oh well it's still a fantastic rom.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] projectpaki:
No but its happened many times while listening to music. Although its happened at work when I'm not even using it, but it happens 1-2x everyday.

Flash a different kernel. You will be good. I personally use KT's kernel.

Has anyone tried recording at 1080? I just recently found out that doing so crashes my phone and reboots. Recording at 720 is ok.

Has there been a beta of SlimKat bc the post a few back is making new second guess? I cannot wait if not I use Slim for all my devices!!! Oh yeah!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nestoh:
Yeah same thing here, I didn't even notice that by the way, but it force closes after a while with 1080p.

---------- Post added at 08:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:09 AM ----------

I doubt it, the devs with slim don't usually send out something buggy even in their nightlies. Over all I've been trying other roms but I always come back here lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Rauch:
No official beta, no. But building yourself along with testing an unofficial a official beta with a few tweaks from gerrit yielded no more results then mine at the point.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
There is still supposed to be a damned near perfect 2.2 release of SlimBean. The device maintainer has been pressing the Slim team to release it for a week now. As of yet they are still making tweaks to perfect it. But their progress is slow because the Slim development team is working hard on SlimKat, the 4.4 version.

I can guarentee you that you will never see a buggy beta release of a Slim ROM. What they call a beta release will be a very stable version that maybe doesn't have all the Slim features you are used to included yet. But it will be rock solid stable (meaning no reboots, data, wifi, phone calls, camera, and other main features all work fine without reboots or other problems) when it's released.

That will be soon, but soon is a relative term. It's not going to be today. It will probably before the New Year. Or somewhere in between.

If you are desperate to try 4.4 roms now, try something else for a while. Then come back to Slim when they release their first builds.

What you lose in speed form the Slim team, you make up for in perfection.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=48087293&postcount=1852

Pay special attention to this part....

For SlimKat we will start rolling out for a bunch of devices next week with the usual weeklies cycle.

Have fun thanks for the support and patience and enjoy when you are still on SlimBean and not on the already very stable SlimKat

That's just good stuff right there! :D

I especially liked the part about "already very stable SlimKat"

I know they've been building it for a couple weeks and testing it among their team. Sounds like the weekly builds are just about upon us!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] brando56894:
Awesome thanks for the update. I was just about to ask when we would start seeing slimkat (even though I didn't really want to, because ya know, it'll be released when ready) because I miss SlimBean on my S4 since I've been rocking beta builds of 4.4 and I know there's a build of slimkat for the Galaxy Nexus since I used it about 2 weeks ago before I got kitkat for my S4.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tunasty:
Thanks a lot [MENTION=4323143]Skipjacks[/MENTION] for keeping us updated! Can't wait for Kitkat version! :highfive:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Me neither!

But so there's no secrets I'm not getting these updates from some magic portal. I'm just reading the same SlimBean thread on the i9505 forums. It's much more active and has regular developer posts.

I made a new place to discuss SlimKat because it really is a wholly different ROM than SlimBean

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2556629
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Rauch:
Except it's not an entirely different ROM and that thread is entirely unnecessary. Just because blk_jack has a busy life and can't get around to absolutely everything doesn't mean to take it into your own hands.

TL:DR Keep the discussion in this thread and it'll be updated when absolutely necessary and time allows.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Thank you for taking it into your own hands to be in charge of XDA and telling everyone where they can and cannot discuss a ROM. (See the slight hypocrisy here? ;) No hard feelings, just pointing it out.)

And SlimKat is a VERY different rom than SlimBean. They may have all the same tweaks and features but they are built on an entirely new Android base version so SlimKat will have it's own bugs and issues completely different from SlimBean. It will also have new features and compenents that are not available at all in SlimBean. And the fixes and sollutions to things in 4.3 will undougbtedly be different than in 4.4.

If the actual device maintainer would like to make a true development thread he's more than welcome to. In the mean time, my Q and A thread is called helping out and keeping things organized so we dont' end up with questions and issues about a 4.4 and 4.3 rom all mixed together giving people the wrong sollutions to problems. And I'm certain that will happen because that's what happens in every thread XDA has ever had that mixed Android versions. It becomes a big confusing mess.

It's all good, brother!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Rauch:
Things get unorganized when you have multiple threads on the same topic.

Anywho, in all truthfulness, it isn't THAT different. As far as Slim goes, the answer is always update to the newest version to see if it fixes your issue. Therefore, there's no need for backward or multiple threads.

Its all good though, blk_jacks a busy guy with work and slim and can't get around to posting. I'll just take over the thread and keep it updated for him. No worries. ;)

Did anyone else have issues with the Official 2.2 update?

My 3G data just does not work right. It takes forever to turn on.

4G works fine, but I rarely use data so I keep my phone on 3G most of the time for battery saving purposes since the 4G signal in my area isn't super strong.

3G data works, but after turning it on it takes a good minute to actually connect.

The problem doesn't exist on 2.0.

I'm not bothering with a log because Slim isn't fixing SlimBean anymore anyway. And its' not a big deal as I can revert to 2.0 which is just about perfect anyway. Just curious if it's a simple settings tweak that needs to be made. This is using the ipv6 APN.

I replicated the same issues with a clean install of 2.2 as well.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] blakesurf:
When I was on 2.0 and 2.2 ipv6 APN wouldn't let me connect at all so I had to switch to the one above...but that's all I can think of beside modifying the build.prop bc it contains a lot of data properties. Thanks for all the info btw y'all are awesome!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bunu:
so I switched over to this ROM from CyanogenMod (I don't want to jump on 4.4 until they fix the VoIP mic bug) and I ran into some trouble. Everytime I update anything to do with Xposed (or install the xposded module), the phone refues to boot up. I have to boot into recovery and do a cache/dalvik-cache wipe and then fix permissions to get the phone to boot. The xposed modules work fine after that but it's just an annoyance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] rkeeney96:
Maybe this is the wrong area to ask this but I have gone through all the comments and have failed to find whether or not this is KNOX free. Most Rom threads say whether it is KNOX free and I have specifically waited even upgrading my stock firmware to 4.3 because of that bootloader. I have always been a huge fan of SlimRoms work since SlimICS. I'd love to flash my new s4 because Slim builds always work flawlessly (coming from I900 and T989) but from what I've researched and can understand the KNOX function has made me leary of flashing anything yet. I know this Rom from previous phones would be a great starting point. KNOX free (if not already installed) or no?
