You're free to change it. That's why slimsizer is there
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] Mr0nLine:
I installed the ROM last night and I love it, but I noticed that it changed my screen resolution to a higher one. Is that normal? and how can I revert it back?
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] Souron29:
Edit build.prop or download an app (density changer) to do ur job.

Hi, first of all I wanted to thank for a great rom, but I have a small problem. I updated youtube app and now dark skin is gone. What could I do to get it back?
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] keneth_c:
You should be able to uninstall updates for YouTube in Apps / Application Manager.

SlimKat...

What the #$&@ did you do not to my tilapia SlimKat...???

It's resurrected from the dead and oh soooo smooth and fast....

Loving it :)

Just flashed the latest nightly build... Using SlimKat after a long long time... Awesome ROM... Next is the i9300... Gonna try it on that as well :)

Hi to all.

I'm trying to see if any similar report has been done but I can not find any.

So, I got problems with slimkat 6.6 and 6.4 with Facebook app. There is no way I can reed anything been posted since the background is black and so is font color. I have done twice full wipe install and no TB.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you in advance.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] dexter93:
Hey guys. Will need a tester or tilapia won't get stable. any takers PM
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] Mr Black'd:
Just for the record I was playing with ROM toolbox and trying a few fonts and it turned out that the font size was the reason why the issue existed in the first place.

The issue was present up to the latest weekly version.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] trotos:
Grouper kernel:Some fixes and updates for SELinux and tcp/network

Does that mean that this fix is available for tilapia?
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] dexter93:
Yes, they use the same kernel source
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] dayanandgp:
small fonts and quick setting's menu

Loved this ROM!! Very skin indeed. Just need one small info. How to decrease the resolution? They font size is too small for me and changing build prop to 160 or 170 is not making as difference :(
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] Serious_Lee:
You have to increase the build.prop lcd density value instead of decreasing it. Default tilapia dpi is 213. You could try that.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] luala:
Thanks for this rom. All smooth and customised. The only one thing I am adding here is the lock screen . I uses pattern to unlock screen, but sometimes it is just dead without any response after I open case cover and input the pattern. I have to press power button for 10 seconds to shutdown. Tried with stock kernel and now using mkernel but problem is the same. It happens (maybe once per day?,annoying me. ) but not too often even if just after a clean installation.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] trotos:
Plant vs zombies problem.

From stable 7 (maybe earlier) till latest weekly plants vs zombies 2 is not playable. I started up I can see the popcap logo, I get the play store login screen and the darkness... I randomly press the screen and numerical keyboard is coming up.

No matter what I am doing same problem.

Does someone has the same problem? Any clues?

I do not believe voice calls are an option.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] Qafix:
Hey Slim Team, I just wanna ask if this is a new latest default; my device keeps switching off automatically when the battery level is 20%. It's not like it turned off as if it thinks the battery is dead right in front of me (I have yet to 'see' it happened), but if I just leave my tablet during the day and i know it's reaching that level, once i got back home and take a look my device will definitely be turned off. Always when it's at 20% and btw, it doesn't even give any 'low battery' warnings either. Just a bit confused by this. If it's a new system default then i must've missed that fact. I'm on weekly 8.18 and everything is default. Thanks in advanced.

[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] jonny68:
This is the best ROM I've ever had on my Nexus 7, very smooth indeed and fast.

Isy there any way to change the colour of the WiFi and battery in the status bar, also rotation is a bit wonky, when it went to lsndscape I had to reboot to get it back to normal but asides from that i think this is any excellent piece of work.

---------- Post added at 10:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:42 AM ----------

BTW I use TWRP without any issues,haven't used CWM in at long time.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] NexusPenguin:
Hi Jonny68,

Yes, it is a good ROM, and will probably be the best once final.

So far it's only "Alpha", which means really early development.

The landscape "bug" has been reported numerous times and is mentioned in post #2 by the developer as a known bug.

There is a third party app that will allow you to rotate your screen back to portrait without rebooting the Tilapia. Just do a search in this thread or the Grouper or Mako thread and you' ll find out that app's name.

Regards.

[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] kapybarus:
CM 11 has fixed rotation, could it help or it s different code?
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] kufikugel:
it is currently a hard task on the one hand we bring all our devices up on the other hand we put back our features...some are redefined some we programm completly from scratch with new stuff. Eg today we pushed about 200 commits from 4.3 into 4.4 for our other devices + fixes for current devices

but mostly ppl are interested in new features...so new build has:

- superuser included (need to be enabled in developer options!!!)

- a lot new features just discover them...to much to write up

- a new crt animation...check it out

- fix settings locale language problem

- and tons of fixes under the hood

- all keyboard features are back (force auto rotate, disable landscape fullscreen, force enter button, ime notification, volume key cursor control)

- clock statusbar features

- crt animation

- statusbar brigthness slide

- safe headset volume

- volume rocker features (wake device, sound skip)

- slims privacy guard

- volume panel features we had

- keyguard on supported devices shows now transparent navbar/statusbar as well

- wifi country code

- advanced reboot menu

- custom LED battery and notification features

- swipe qs -> notification and back

- disbale OTA from google

- slims camera and video features (smart capture, image quality, image size, gps indicator etc)

- implemented root (needs to be enabled in developer settings or in superuser settings. Disabled by default)

- tons of fixes in google code and optimizations

- a lot under the hood stuff

- and whatever I forgot to mention lol
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] kufikugel:
where? I did not saw any patches according to this....beside that this still is only a temp problem till new blobs are out. But if you could give me a hint where to look I will integrate it of course
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] kufikugel:

[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] kufikugel:
hey guys,

new build is up.

Due that now longer we had no update their are really to much changes to write them all down lol. A lot features went back were partly redefined like navbar and navring....etc etc

Just discover it :)

Official binaries are included now.....please do a backup and then a CLEAN FLASH!! IT IS ABSOLUTLY NEEDED!!!!!. Otherwise you will get problems :)

thanks and have fun and report back
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] NexusPenguin:
Hi Kufikugel,

Well, things seem to move really fast forward :) Even for the Tilapia, which goes unsupported for a lot of other ROM's :)

Can I assume that I can now customize the NavBar and NavRing ?

What about the StatusBar ?

Those 3 are the most important to me, so if I can customize them, I will give this build a try...

ONE IMPORTANT QUESTION THOUGH : after installing the first Alpha on my Grouper, I was unable to go back to a previous version. A Slim team member said it was a recognized bug. Does that bug also affect the Tilapia ? Or will I be able to downgrade, if needed, without a problem ?

Thanks.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] Sengir:
downloading new build..hope gps and rotation are fixed with the binaries included..Thank you so much for this awesome ROM!

EDIT: rotation works,have to try GPS
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] NexusPenguin:
Hi,

Did something stupid : I flashed the wrong GApps :(

So, everything crashes on boot. And reinstalling the good ones does not fix things :(

Will restore the BU and reinstall the 4.4 Alpha 2 and re install the proper GApps hoping that will do :)

NavBar and NavRing are apparently working good.

Cheers.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] android88:
format system and reflash and it should stop crashing after flashing the correct gapps
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] kufikugel:
yes statusbar features are included
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] psafx:
how about ART? i try to change it in developer options but don't work, stuck at slimkat logo. have to factory reset to get back to dalvik.

PS and next build will be with kernel source due that google today published the kernels...then we can go on with USB OTG
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] NexusPenguin:
Hi Kufikugel,

I love Slim and I love you !

Not only is your ROM about one of the best I know (and I tried pretty much everything available on XDA... and not only on my Tilapia but also on my Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 Grouper), IT IS ALSO almost the only one that I can install on all my devices and thus have the same features on all of them... which is handy to configure :)

SO : long live Slim and all the developers involved !

So far, I did not install 4.4 as it was in too early development. Now I've installed on the grouper and think it's mature enough for my "production" devices and will so install it :)

Regards.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] emilispk:
SMS

The rom is great, one of the best so far(4.4), but I cant get the messaging app to work, tried to set it's permissions, add administration to it etc..

I just need sms :c
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] kufikugel:
what problem you exactly have?
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] emilispk:
More info

Here
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] kufikugel:
and you cannot enable it with pressing the first settings entry?

if not try pleas as well in settings->more->default sms package if you can chose it there
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] emilispk:
Tried

Tried to press it multiple times, sometimes the android permission manager gave me an allert that I need to enable the sms app,and when I did, it didn't do anything :D

P.S:I didn't find the more section, you sure it's there?
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] emilispk:
This

I think this is preventing me from running any massaging apps :c
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] arrowthefirst:
thx

Thank you very much! That's the best and really fastest 4.4 for Tilapia so far! Custom settings are also very useful, but the dpi is slightly too low. How can it be changed?
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] kufikugel:
so new build is up guys

a lot lot lot changes under the hood:

- tons of dalvik, skia, bionic and system core fixes changes and improvements

- activated SlimCenter for now (it will follow on a later point a SlimPlayStore which can manage the trds apps and gapps updates automatically)

- say hello to slims new file manager SimpleExplorer

- support for all shortcuts features if the user disables or uninstalls an binded app

- fix for 3dot menu button dissapears after disabling navbar

- a lot smaller fixes here and there

- fixed all sms/mms derpes

- and a small surprise I do not say where it is....lets see who discoveres it lmao

all in all I got major speed and battery improvements on my hammerhead (I do not really like benchmarks but I do them sometimes under same conditions several times to get a feeling if it is better or not....at least for me several antutu benchmarks show about 5k more compared to before.....30k to 32k is no problem now).

So test it deeply please. Dirty flash should be fine....but due of the tons of changes it is possible that it is needed to clean flash. So if you have any weird behaviour clean flash please. Dirty worked for me though I just needed to wipe wikipedia app data lol

have fun report back and cheers
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] arrowthefirst:
thanks again

This update works almost flawlessly, I updated dirtily

Changed dpi and the device became almost ideal

Waiting for working ART
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] Hordon:

ROM is running great! so smooth and fast. Thanks!
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] psloan:
Is this rom suppose to support ART? I did a clean flash, using TWRP clearing sustem, cache,dalvik cashe and data. Then flashed the latest rom and gapps. Then enabled developer options and turned on ART from the dev options. After the reboot, I get a series of google apps crash notifications.

Have I done something wrong to enable ART?

Thanks.

So I decided I'd like to try 4.4 and this ROM looks like a good candidate :)

I remember reading something in another thread about upgrading your radio and bootloader in order to run 4.4. Is this still needed and if so, could someone point me in the right direction for the things I'd need to do that. Also. I saw a link somewhere to the latest TWRP version somewhere, but I can't seem to find it again. So a link to that would be most helpful as well. I haven't updated that since I originally rooted my device, so I guess that's a good idea :)

Thanks in advance,

Raszagal

Really looking forward to trying this ROM out.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] sgw99:
Slim-tilapia-4.4.alpha.1.5-OFFICIAL didn't flash here for me, crashed twice (and I re-downloaded, yes).

Maybe I should retry today and check the checksums before ...

Question: will this ROM get tethering?

Very happy so far with this Alpha!

Thanks for your work, Stefan
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] ORiZorrie:
Sorry, didn't check all posts, but what I noticed already:

- big battery drain

- bluetooth pairing doesn't always work from the first time

- no audio ? when using bluetooth it works, but low volume
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] NexusPenguin:
DELETED...

Question about "Tethering" but as I did not know the english word, my search did not give me any results...

Found the correct english word and now have my answer : it is normal that I do not have Wi-Fi tethering with SlimKAT.

Hope it's gonna be implemented some day.

If not, I guess I'll have to stick to SlimBean :(

Regards.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] artie1:
Where is Quick Toggles settings?I can´t find that.ty ;)
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] NexusPenguin:
Hi artie,

I think they are not implemented yet...

[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] sm00k:
As is PIE?
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] NexusPenguin:
Hi Smook,

Exactly. PIE is not implemented yet.

But originally, PIE was a Slim feature that others have then copied. SO I do not doubt that PIE will make it's way to newer versions of SlimKat.

Don't forget that, so far, SlimKat is still "Alpha", which means in really early development phase.

PIE should be expected with "Beta" versions, which prefigure the final version, but with minor features missing and with debugging needed.

Beta should not be long now as I have seen a beta was released yesterday.

Don't know if it's accessible to public though... for now.

Regards.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] C0BRA01:
They talk about PIE in the features list, and PA made it, and then CM adopted it, and then Slim modified it, so it is a PA feature originally. That's per Slims own feature list.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] NexusPenguin:
Hi Cobra,

OK. I thought that the original PIE concept was a Slim concept. At least that's what I saw as an official answer. I think that other, like CM have then implemented something similar, but for some ROM without some of the refinements that SLIM introduced, like the ability to add a custom app into the PIE.

But of course, I can be wrong and will not tell for sure...

Regards.
