Anyone got a link to the kernel that's running on slimkat?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blmvxer:
I'm supposed to be on Sprint CDMA.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] killersloth:
There you go
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nitefall:
Installed the latest build this morning and just now went to mess with the lock screen targets and as soon as I touch the target the settings closed and it went back to the previous page. I did a dirty flash to if that matters
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blmvxer:
I went back to stock 4.3 and my data didn't return!!! :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
Maybe do a carrier wipe and reactivate ? I've literally had to do that when going back to a stock or other custom rom restore . If you flashed a new stock image then you should have data without a carrier wipe provided all your phone stats look correct under phone status . I did it today in fact .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blmvxer:
How do I perform a carrier wipe?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
Its easy but you have to have your MSL code . you just open your dialer , dial *#*#72786#*#* . When you do a window opens asking you to input your MSL code . Let me ask you this . Did you restore a stock backup or did you flash a new stock ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blmvxer:
I tried first recovering and then flashing.

I got my MSI from sprint diagnostics.

Still didn't work. :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
if you've flashed a clean stock image , factory reset , wiped carrier and reactivated I don't know what it could be other than a sprint data outage in your area or something on your phone . Have you tried flashing back to ICS to see if that works ? After the wipe did it go through hands free activation successfully on 3g ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adio201:
I got data working right out the gate.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
I'm about to give it another try . I'm stock rooted 4.3 with data working and the latest cwm recovery installed .sitting on go . Any advice about method ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adio201:
I come from Pacman rom 4.2.2 to slimkat all I have been doing is on the first boot when you select language setup don't hit next till you see 3g icon then hit next after that select sprint system update and just leave it alone till it updates prl after that it would say activating phone click skip and skip WiFi select and boom data should work just fine after that
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nemesis1278:
So I did a dirty install of 1.5 and I still see the glitches so I might try a full wipe and see what I get. Also for data you may need to choose gsm/cdma auto (prl). It is only a 3g connection but its better than nothing. WIFI works well so far. Also first time using different language on keyboard in facebook I got a soft reboot which brought me to the slimkat boot animation, but works fine afterwards with no issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adio201:
No reboot or issues here yet I'm running PA gapps

---------- Post added at 01:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:51 PM ----------

Also for data I did not touch any settings just let the phone do is think and I can go from 3g - 4g and back without a problem
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
Tried it the same way , waited for the 3g which did come on . It never could activate the data portion and all I can figure is maybe its related to being on Ting . the 3g icon goes out after a bit and I get an error code 601 that the data portion of the activation cannot be completed . Ting always works fine with 4.2 and 4.3 roms for me . Not sure what to try next . 4.4 is the first custom rom I've actually used where you could activate it over the air too . All the others I've used had to be ready to go before install as far as activation goes . Found this info on sprint error codes

Error Code 601

System error code 601 means "The attempt to find the object found an object matching by ID on the volume but it is out of the scope of the handle used for the operation." This error code may also display as "ERROR_FOUND_OUT_OF_SCOPE" or as the value 0x259
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adio201:
I had that same problem in the pass. Try going to back to 4.3 rom and make sure you are on 3g then update prl and profile after all is done No data is working trying coming back to 4.4 and see if that help. Work for me in the past also I'm on sprint
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
That's exactly what I did this morning . 4.3 with data working and ready . It must be an apn issue with ting that will likely get resolved eventually . My radio will work but apparently the negotiation with sprint as an mvno is not proper . I have to assume Kittkat is handling activation slightly different . Its not just this rom, its any kitkat I try , same exact problem and Ting is the common denominator . Thank you .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
apns-conf

I believe the apns-conf.xml file maybe an issue for some people having data problems . I can't be sure but for 3 days I couldn't get data to provision . I found a kitkat 4.4 apn and flashed it and rebooted and it provisioned fine and data works for me now . I can't be certain of this but the one packaged seems very close to the one in CM10 . You couldn't provision with CM10 installed but you can with CM11 and Slimkat. My point is if this apns-conf is basically the one for CM10 its probably been altered to avoid provisioning . The stock kitkat file had 27 sprint references whereas the one packaged with slimrom and cm11 has about 5 I think . Maybe someone who knows about this file could take a look and see if its somehow hindering the process of provisioning and activating ? I have no clue why some have it and some don't but i do know after 3 days without a single byte of data mine is solid since i swapped that file out . Wifi has been fine for me . The 3G is also working smoothly moving in and out of wifi . Not having to use airplane mode or anything like that . The file I flashed does require a factory reset as best i can tell or at least something to kick the phone into the provisioning process . .The first time I tried it I got a sprint error 600 that it was to big . I then read through and found this line " this APN will be deleted and replaced by a new ia APN by the HFA provisioning process.

This is just a bootstrap APN to enable HFA --> so I did a factory reset and when the phone came back up it provisioned data and 3G is solid now as i mentioned up above Hope this helps someone .. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adio201:
Do you have a link to that file?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
yes , the stock kitkat apns-conf.xml is at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2340437

You maybe able to get the lite ting version and just edit all the plspictures.com to sprintpcs.com

apns-conf followup

If I'm understanding your post, if we get a new Slimkat rom tonight we would have to redo these steps? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zzz73:
I am a big fan of Slim ROM. I don't think there's a team out there that works harder. that being said, after about 3 hours of use on the 1.6 official build I am up to 3 reboots and one freeze up that required a battery pull. all instances were while switching applications.

I did a full-wipe clean install, deleted my android folder, used recommended GApps, and haven't messed with kernel or dpi settings.

if there's anything I can do to clarify or help please let me know.

Z
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
For me it seems to mellow with age. I switched to art and mine seems to have a lot less graphics glitches and less issues in general . Maybe because the operations are less intense because apps are already sort of compiled . Have you tried ART yet ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zzz73:
i i have steered clear of ART due to the many problems users have been reporting across all the 4.4 threads. but i will give it a go. thank you for the helpful advice, i'll report back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] killersloth:
I feel like there are a lot of things to work out with ART, and there are a lot of other bugs with gnex and 4.4 causing other problems as well, however as a preview it's still not bad.

Seems like the perceived increase in responsiveness is similar to clearing caches. Gets back to slight lag after time.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adio201:
That's only for ting I'm on sprint. I was able to get data working right out the gate but for some reason after I rebooted my phone I can not get data to work I dry everything even try the new build with gapps recomended and try clean install and still no data. Anyone got any ideas
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sik-1:
These don't matter but they do lol this is at 1.5ghz bokang sioplus interactive superram kernel, on the 11/23 build art enabled
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
But I referred you to the stock one " stock kitkat 4.4 apn This is the stock AOSP apn from 4.4 " on that page . I think ting and sprint are pretty much the same except for mms urls which if you want to use any of them just edit plspictures to sprintpcs in each instance or use the stock one . My data works good now and its a smooth handoff between wifi and 3G . No flicking airplane mode on or off or rebooting to get data working .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adio201:
OK newb question I just downloaded the file now what do I do
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danrodz:
On this day to say I am thankful to the hard working devs who make my phone feel new. You guys rock!

BTW, reboots drastically down but still getting some. I dirty flashed, will try a clean install and report back
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
Yesss Very thankful for many things in life and to the great developers . This rom is running great for me . Over 24 hours with no reboots or freezes . I downloaded multiple apps this morning then ran quadrant , antutu and vellamo benchmarks repeatedly comparing them to my epic 4g touch . The ep4g used to make the gnex look sick but now the scores have come way up on the gnex and in some areas surpassed the ep4g . Graphics as expected has suffered but tolerable until that's figured out . . It seems like the longer this rom cures the smoother it gets . I have to wonder if some of the reboot issues and glitches are because of some of the data issues some are experiencing . I notice some have reported reboots and freezes around data events . Maybe that apns-conf.xml has a lot of erroneous stuff in it wreaking havoc because since I replaced mine this phone has almost been flawless including data . Even the video glitches are minimal . I'm barely getting glitches when I rotate and that's about it . I'm also using ART on this one . I'm loving it . Thanks to the OP , kufikugel and all the others helping to bring us this great Rom !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] R0axet:
New build 1.6 review and what about this apps-conf.xml swap

Like the overall responsiveness on Sprint detection. Skipped activation (for obvious reasons). Still notice a vary intermittent reboot on any settings access. Auto rotate a little better. The earlier Monstadriva post about apps-conf.xml inclusion helping on data and 3g working together... well I'm a little befuddled at how after doing a factory reset I would swap (?) the apps-conf.xml after install of Slimkat 4.4? I mean would he please explain the exact process after factory reset of swapping the apps.conf.xml?

I'm anxious to see if by doing so would actually allow data over 3g. Currently on my device no wifi, no data. :confused:

Again Kufikugel Thanks a TON for your work. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adio201:
OK quick update guys. I got data working again and everything is running smooth one question how do I go about turning art on
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
Go to about phone , click the build number about 7 times and enable developer options then look in developer options for runtime .Click that

---------- Post added at 02:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:41 PM ----------

I'm flashing the file from recovery . I went to recovery , flashed the file . Booted up and did a reset . You want to do the reset after you've installed the rom and after you've flashed the new file . Ideally it would be best if the file were inserted into the rom as i've read it tends to stick better but i'm a noob at this and have no idea how to do that .Alternatively you could probably just replace the file in device/system/etc/apns-conf.xml maybe with a file manager then if it sticks do your reset . I'm hoping someone will fix this file and tune it up then include it . When I first discovered this I had been fighting the data thing for a couple of days . I was about to wipe the rom and start over but I decided to give this a go so I flashed the file and still it didn't work . Then I discovered I needed a reset which threw the phone into activation and I think thats the moment in time when it rewrites a new file and deletes the old . I found this line in the file which made me try the reset as on the slim rom a reset prompts for provisioning . I didn't have to reinstall my rom , it started working great . Now wifi has worked flawlessly for me the entire time even with the packaged file so if your having wifi problems I don't know what to tell you about that .You should be getting wifi out of the gate with this rom 10 out of 10 times without doing anything . I'd like to note that most of the glitches like freezes and reboots mostly went away with replacing this file . Maybe erroneous data events associated with it are actually the biggest culprit here .

this APN will be deleted and replaced by a new ia APN by the HFA provisioning process.

This is just a bootstrap APN to enable HFA -->

Hope this helps .

Can also edit the rom zip prior to flashing it on your computer or even your phone.. If using computer use an archive manager if on a Linux derivative or 7zip on windows just open it ( not extract ) make the edits save put on storage of phone then flash if just using phone method would suggest downloading zipsigner from market .. extract the ROM zip make edits zip it back up open zip signer choose file choose auto test sign then click go/sign then flash away
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
Here's what I'm basically using . I had to zip these to upload them . These are not to be flashed .

apns-confedit is the actual contents of the file on my phone . located in device/system/etc/apns-conf.xml

4.4apns-kitkat zip This is the stock AOSP apn from 4.4

I don't have linux or know how to use it . .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adio201:
What is art for?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] R0axet:
Rom and this edit?

I guess we're all wondering if this works, why KufiKugel just doesn't implement it directly into the rom?

I know I'm bating for an answer. :fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blmvxer:
I used galaxy nexus tools and went back to Android 4.2.1, data was working as expected. I tried latest Slimkat again. And no data even with stock KitKat APN.

Sigh. I just want a 4.4 ROM with data. :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spleef:
any of you having data issues tried restoring efs from recovery of a 4.3 rom with working data... That's what I do... I've a back up of carbon 4.31 which I had perfect working data on.. Full wipe, flash rom, flash gapps, restart phone after fully booted if no data.... reboot to recovery, wipe caches, restore only the efs... Fix permissions then reboot... I've done this on every kit Kat and have had perfect data even when switching to Wi-Fi.... Also I've used the calling voice mail trick and the sprint tools zip but restoring efs seems to be the ultimate fix for me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
What radio would that have had you on ? GJ04 or GA02 ? I came from 4.3 and have GJ04 .What radio are you showing ? At one point I did go back to 4.2.1 a few days ago and then took the OTA update again to upgrade the radio before installing slimkat . Maybe I didn't need to .Did Slimkat upgrade your radio ? I'm use to the epic 4 g touch where there's no radio flashed with most custom roms .Also are you being prompted for hands free activation when you boot up after install ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adio201:
I was having data issue and all I did was *#*#4636#*#* and change prl setting and data works
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
Check the general section there's a thread for it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] R0axet:
*#*#4636#*#* - gsm/CDMA Auto works

Works here switching to gsm/CDMA auto prl. So now we begin to understand that network detection really doesn't work well yet. Thanks for resolving my data issues over the network.

However a reboot of the device loses the setting.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] giltec:
no gsm after install this rom

No GSM no network from my gsm wireless work good but no gsm

help
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SuperGoober:
Data

Does 3G data work for everyone or is there anyone on this rom not getting 3G ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 22stars:
this thread is for the Sprint CDMA version of the Galaxy Nexus (Toroplus) - you should not flash it if you have a GSM device, which would make sense as to why you wouldn't have any GSM data service.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
3G/LTE and stuff

Just wondering how this rom is doing for everybody . I'm simply loving it although it does have a some minor bugs but is basically new , I feel we're way ahead of the curve development wise and lucky to have it for our gnex's . My 3G/LTE/Wifi all work great and hands off successfully to each other . Today I went from Wifi to 3G to LTE and back and it switched just fine , I haven't had a freeze or a reboot in over 5 days . The battery life is very impressive as well . 25 hours with 70 % left and that's with data on . Also running ART with no real issues .The OP has a jewel on his hands with this great rom . Thanks to kufikugel !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blmvxer:
I've tried this with CM11 but not this ROM.

From a ROM working with data(I prefer stock) wipe the system and do a factory reset in recovery.

Install the ROM and reboot. Data should be working.

Flash appropriate gapps and go on as you would everyday.

I've also tried flashing cm11 and gapps at the same time and loose data every time.

Hope this helps others. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
Lol TY for coming back . I sort of figured you were up to your elbows working . The rom in alpha has settled in quite nicely .Soon as the beta is available on slim site I'll be flashing it . Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adio201:
Is beta available for toroplus?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
I'm thinking yes but somebody has got to update all the links on the site and it says rolling out the builds tonight . I haven't spotted it yet either .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
np and thanks , Will this beta build have the dark black switch included ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] apeh2000:
anyone running the Beta build? Can you comment on the stability (random reboots, etc). I'm currently running the cMetal release of 4.4 and considering trying out SlimKat given how I liked SlimBean back in the 4.2/4.3 days.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zzz73:
can someone post the link to Slim Jenkins please
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kufikugel:
soooo jenkins decided to build now the right one

beta.1.1 is up have fun and cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
Data

No 3G data for me , just like the last rom .I can fix mine with the custom conf-apn.xml but just wondering if anyone else has 3G out of the gate ? I loaded my fix file and it does work and hands on and off with wifi and 4g perfectly but I hope they will get around to fixing it baked in .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zzz73:
mine is definitely one of the devices affected by reboot. I got two reboots before I could even get the phone all setup from a clean flash. I don't have this issue on other 4.4 ROMs. I really like Slim and think the whole team is top-notch. hope whatever is causing this issue gets ironed out do I can run Slim again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adio201:
Is everyone running beta with stock kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nemesis1278:
I have been having the same issue with 3g. I changed the apns-conf file to one from slimbean and it works now right from the start. I also have switched back to dalvik as art seems to be giving me issues. I will be trying art again in the future. But for now it is working well with no data issues. kufikugel please change the apns-conf file for your next beta. This should fix all of the connection problems with data that we are having. Thanks for all the hard work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
Just curious if when you run the slimbean file are you prompted at first boot to activate ? Mine goes to hands free activation and completes the process on 3g at first boot . See the file I use is not the slimbean conf file , its a Kitkat variation and I like the fact it will let me activate/provision the phone rather than telling me I need to make a special call . I too hope the OP will take notice of the conf-apn issue . I think the SLIM guys have just been busting butt to try and finish up all the 4.3's and my hats off to them for that because there's a ton of started roms on this site that are partially built but never finished Slim seems to finish what they start and its nice to have a stable finished product .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adio201:
I have data working out the gate. Also hand-off from WiFi to 3g is fine same goes for lte
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] An UrgeT Dance:
How would one go about changing the qpns-conf file? I assume you just replace it with root explorer or is this something I need to do before I flash?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
I flash mine right after I flash the rom and gapps Then when I boot the first time its good as gold but once they fix it and inject it into the rom that won't be needed anymore .Are you having data issues ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] An UrgeT Dance:
Can someone link me to this file?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nemesis1278:
I was not prompted to activate. I also wiped cache so that may be why I did not have to activate. I am also getting 4g. It seems like its switching over automatically. I just needed to restart a couple of times and it seems like everything is working as it should with data.

Also for the file you can just copy it over from your sdcard with root explorer to your system/etc folder. I also changed the one in etc folder under root drive.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MonstaDriva:
Now that is weird . I've flashed Slimkat all sorts of ways on the various builds . Not once no matter with or without stock conf-apn file has it not taken me to the sprint hands free activation screen . It even does if if I just do a reset . I just assumed everybody was seeing that . So when hands free activation runs it even activates successfully like a stock rom on a new phone would do but its not successful with the included conf-apns.xml file . It fails and I can't get 3g data at all . Its only successful for me if I flash a modified file and then all data works and switches just fine . Updates profile , prl and all . I hope one of the guru's will comment on this . By the same token CM-11 doesn't do it so I'm baffled .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MizzouBrent:
Another weekly build is up as of today
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] goast:
Question since SMS/MMS is stated as working properly is this using default messaging app or the new hangouts app? And also is messaging app in ROM or just hangouts? Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sik-1:
Data is very very flakey for me even wit a prl update and such, maybe its just my location but I didn't have problems on the the toro rom I was running
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vrienduinen:
Baseband is GJ04 which is the new 4.3 version.

I agree that the DPI seems a bit high as well.
