I'm only saying that you shouldn't experience any problems this way.

I recommend you test it again on a complete empty system without any of your apps installed.

Our Play Music gets used by most of our users and so far I haven't seen any reports about it.

It's recommended yes.

Wipe /system + cache

Flash Build 5 and Gapps 5 and you should be good to go.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] culaponk:
Correct me, torch not function on QS drawer

I've on latest stable version and slim gapps minimal v.5 too

Nb. With clean flash ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wickster:
Working here for me. I'm on latest build as well.

Try removing it from the QS drawer and adding it back in.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] culaponk:
Thanks, but still not workin here.

Do u have minimal gapps or aio pack?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wickster:
Sorry for the late reply, but I have the minimal installed as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jean15paul:
Torch in the Quick Settings shade works for me as well.

I'm running Stable 5 (dirty flashed over Stable 4) with the AIO GAPPS and the camera compatibility fix. I also happen to be running a custom kernel, Fancy kernel r50, if that's relevant.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] culaponk:
My problem solved with new 5.2

???

What is mean shake event and how to use it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AGoogleUser:
Maybe its just my device but no matter what this ROM will not deep sleep. Multiple kernels, multiple setting changes, and many many flashes and it still will not enter deep sleep.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nexusbandit:
Have you tried using greenify? I also believe a phone won't deep sleep if its on a charger and turned on..mine doesn't..I now have 5 phones and none deep sleep while charging..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AGoogleUser:
Yes I have used greenify. No luck. Its happening even with no apps besides the slim gapps. I'm using liquid smooth and deep sleep is working just fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nexusbandit:
I've tried the newest liquid smooth myself and it was just to buggy for me.its also a nightly and not a stable build.the unofficial version worked better then the official build.I personally have never had a problem with slimkat stable and the minimal gapps..its the only ROM I've had work perfect in art mode..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
Deep sleep should work without any problems.

Did you test it on a completely clean system?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AGoogleUser:
Multiple flashes and yes on a clean system. The phone will just sit at the lowest frequency when the screen is off.

EDIT: Will try again tomorrow.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
Very strange, can you post the bugreport here?

Settings/SlimCenter
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AGoogleUser:
Here you are, chap. This is with all the apps I use. Same apps, if not more, on Liquid KK and Liquid sleeps DEEPLY. :P

XDA wont let me upload .log files so here is a dropbox link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/yasxclcar7g1wnv/bugreport.zip

Cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] themirrorstruth:
Not just you. Installed ROM 3 times. Clean installs. Used 3 separate kernels (Franco, stock and vanir tuna) never deep sleeps. On or off the charger doesn't matter. Been using greenify forever. All apps are stay hibernated. This is the only ROM I cant get to deep sleep
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
Just for additional information, does Better Battery stats show anything relevant?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AGoogleUser:
SlimBean would enter deep sleep just fine. I loved that ROM. I just can't figure out why SlimKat won't.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] namtombout:
Gps wakelock. After every reboot you have to get a gps lock before it will deep sleep
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] themirrorstruth:
So turn on location and allow? Then disable?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] namtombout:
There's an app called gps fix on play store. Run it then wait for a lock. Phone should sleep after
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] themirrorstruth:
Got GPS lock and deep sleeps perfectly. Thanks for the help
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] singlesword:
What app from the play store are you using for the gps lock
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] themirrorstruth:
gpsfix
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nullfeed:
It seems like the download link you provided is for the stable builds. The latest stable on toroplus is ' Slim-toroplus-4.4.2.build.5-OFFICIAL-4076 ' not stable 6. There is a build 6 in the weekly section, though.

But those weekly builds are supposed to be unstable, right? I'm somewhat confused

---------- Post added at 10:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:22 PM ----------

The gps fix app solved the deep sleep problem. Thanks.

How did you figure out that this was the issue? What did you use to troubleshoot?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] namtombout:
The app betterbatterystats. It shows whats keeping your device from sleeping. There's a thread in a xda forum for the app, instructions on how to use the app, and people to help you troubleshoot
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
Due to an error from our side the build for toroplus has become a weekly.

It however should be as well stable build 7.

Taking a break from Slim

Hey guys,

I want to inform you that I'm taking a break from Slim and XDA.

It was a great time with you all.

It's nothing which you have to be concerned about. I just need some time for other things (school, etc).

I'm not leaving the Slim team completely,

I'll stay as passive member and if everything goes well will see us again at some point in the future.

Have a good time and keep the atmosphere friendly.

P.S. Please remember, if someone posts a question you don't like or you have heard too often don't bother answering it.

The community will answer it soon enough in a friendly matter.

Greetings

Nebucatnetzer
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jayshocka:
Thanks for all you have done!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nemesis1278:
I don't know what you guys did in 7.8 but it's working really well for me compared to previous versions. Thanks for all of the hard work that you put into making these rooms run.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FivePiece:
gapps versions

I'd like to flash the latest stable version for toroplus, which is Slim-toroplus-4.4.2.build.5-OFFICIAL-4076. However, the only gapps I see on the download page are for 4.4.4 and 4.4.3.

Are those gapps (4.4.4 and 4.4.3) suitable with that version of the ROM (4.4..2)? I've searched everywhere but can't find a clear answer. Also, is it still recommended that we only use the Slim gapps, or are PA gapps ok?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nullfeed:
Hey, I was browsing around and saw your comment. Actually, build 5 is really outdated and isn't even the most stable build, even though it says so on the website. From my understanding, the reason why the stable builds haven't been updated on slim's website is because the main developer is suffering from medical problems (I read it somewhere here) and he is the only one authorized to push the weekly builds into the stable branch. The other devs have stated after this circumstance that they would be pushing updates through the weekly section, which sucks because it makes it hard to tell which builds were meant to be stable releases without reading the changelogs. IMO, the weekly builds have been remarkably stable for me; you shouldn't worry about that (I have tried >5 weekly builds so far, all stable). There are many new features, security fixes, and more stability in the newest builds than that old 'official' release you mentioned. If the latest build does give you problems, try the previous build.

Also, you can use any gapps you want but then it wouldn't really be SlimRom anymore :svetius:

P.S. you should probably comment on the maguro slimkat section since the volunteer here has taken a break and nobody else seems to visit here as often.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Migital Warfare:
Wouldn't that simply be recovering to a 4.3 backup?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] goast:
Yes but it in if u had 4.3 and wanted to go to a 4.2.2,back up twrp wouldn't see your backup until you flashed another 4.3 rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Migital Warfare:
Oh, didn't know that. I've only tried out TWRP for a short time about a year ago. That seems like an odd behavior for a recovery UI to display, considering it's for

recovery

MMS worked for me after I changed the URL from cricket to sprintpcs. Data however I just found out doesn't work for me

One thing I should have noted is that I force roaming on Verizon with a hacked prl; don't know if that has any bearing - didn't see any 4g, which I would have on 4.3 roms, but didn't mess with data settings either and see under mobile networks it's set to 3g and not LTE. Question: if I change that to lte, can I not get 3g or does LTE there mean 3g + LTE?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fawxy:
Can vouch for the same thing for me. I havent tested MMS yet, but data is not working. I did a carrier wipe and a full activation, and have everything aside from data. Heres the confusing part. I was outside for a minute (where I normally have full bars of 3G) and have 1 bar of standard signal. I had the 3G logo pop up for about 1 second, havent been able to get it back. I am on the latest GJ02 radios.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GoSooners345:
Gj04 you mean?

The boss is here
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fawxy:
Im sorry! Yes, thats what I meant.

Edit: Tried to go to APN menu. Severe graphical issues occur upon entering that menu, making it extremely difficult to do anything in it. I was able to see more APNs were there than should of been. I reset APN settings to defaults which removed a bunch of APN settings, bringing it to the normal amount, and all the settings I could see for each one looked like they were before, but still no data. After tampering in the APN menu for a little too long, the graphics issues caused a reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rjzmanz:
Thanks.

and my data isn't really working either. I can do a profile and prl update and get the 3g up, but it might last 5min and then it dies out and even if I update again, it won't come back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rjzmanz:
I quoted the wrong person in the last post, thank you to Sik-1 and vrienduinen.

That helped
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fawxy:
Anyone can confirm if data is working for them? Seems the first couple pages didnt make mention of it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rjzmanz:
Yes, my data is now working. I just posted this using 4g. The only problem is that it doesn't switch well between 3g and 4g, and I've had a few times where it just wouldn't connect at all. When it does that I reboot and it works.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] btux81:
I make a phone call...something like 222-film and when I hang up on the call I get my data back. I think it's faster and less draining on the battery when I do it this way. Hopefully it works for anyone else experiencing a similar issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rjzmanz:
Yeah, that worked for me on 4.3, I haven't tried yet on 4.4. I will when my data dies out again, thanks for reminding me of that trick.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GoSooners345:
I found a Paranoid Android Gapps Package that makes browser work well. Its on their g apps page
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fawxy:
I dialed my home phone and let it ring until voicemail before hanging up. Still not getting any data. I had problems with 4G on other ROMs due to being on an MVNO, but 3G has always worked. Now not even 3G. Might have to flash to cyanogen for now as I would like data while at work today.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GoSooners345:
AOSP Browser Bug fixed

The Google apps package Paranoid Android GApps works well and solves the AOSP Browser Bug. Also Fixes home button bug and gives you google experience launcher
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fawxy:
Now I am back to having my old bug of getting a 3G logo and good signal but no internet. Webpages all say "WiFi and Mobile Data are turned off"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rjzmanz:
So with use, I've gotten my data to work seamlessly. Everything's working fine, but I occasionally get a reboot while multitasking, or doing demanding things. A (very) small bug I found is that floating mode doesn't work for Play music. I'm gonna try another app's floating mode and report back. Definitely a minute problem. But I figured it might be worth mentioning. For you who your data isn't working, you've probably already done this, but do the Sprint profile update and prl update over WiFi, than when its done, turn off your WiFi, and call someone (thank btux81 for this part), you don't even have to wait for it to finish dialing, and hang up. Than see if your data's working.

Maybe, just maybe, that might work for some of you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rjzmanz:
So I flashed those Paranoid android Gapps that someone linked here, the browser issue is fixed, the Google now issue is fixed, and any other problem with the black covering parts or all of the screen.

Thnx to GoSooners345 who linked the gapps. They worked wonders.

EDIT: It did NOT fix the browser issue, but it still fixed the Google now issues I was having earlier.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SilentStormer:
Alright, so about 2 hours in and things are both good and bad. I was able to get it to flash pretty easily on the latest CWM and then it booted right up. I'd definitely recommend doing a clean wipe for this so that there's no possibly of crashes due to that. I can't comment on battery life quite yet but I'll be checking back in in a day or two to post what I think. I also changed the DPI from 245 to 295 which makes it look a bit more stock and not quite so dang small. To each his own I guess.

The Good:

-It boots

-Wifi, Camera, GPS, SMS, Calling, and accelerometer all work

-When it's not suffering from some alpha-lag it seems to run really smooth, with a little time I'm sure it'l run better than 4.1, 4.2 or 4.3 ever did.

-RAM usage is basically cut in half from where it was for me on 4.3

-The PA Gapps give you everything you'd want out of the box, including the new Google Launcher, the updated keyboard, and Hangouts with SMS

The Bad:

-There's a lot of alpha stutter and some graphical glitches all throughout the system

-Trying out the new "ART" (android runtime) as opposed to the classic dalvik caused all the google apps to continuously force close

-As of now I've had about 7 reboots after short freezes, sometimes switching apps, other times just using the phone

Overall this ROM is in pretty great shape for an alpha on an unsupported device one week after the release. Even though it doesn't run spectacularly right now I think I'll stick it out and see how it improves in the coming days and weeks, something tells me KitKat is gonna be a really good thing for the 'ol Toroplus.

-Silente
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fawxy:
I guess I should post about my experience as well:

Pros:

-Its fast, REALLY fast

-You can now activate voice assistant with only your voice!

-Almost everything works

-The UI is amazing

-SMS and GVoice messaging is now done with Hangouts, putting everything in one spot (You can of course opt to have SMS go through old app, as well as GVoice)

-Very snappy to rotate compared to older builds

Cons:

-No data workarounds are working (so there is no data on this build, at least for me)

-Going into the settings menu has a chance of freezing and eventually rebooting the phone

-Very obvious graphics tearing during CRT off animation, as well as rotation animation (doesnt effect usage any)

-Google Now and Browser are both not working right (black boxes appear at random, wont go away until closing app) [Note: Some users are saying the PA Gapps fix this, however, it did not for me]

-No music player app pre-installed, however, Google Music is pre-installed and is capable of playing local MP3's but will not sync playlists

All those cons are perfectly acceptable to me aside from data. Updating the profile/PRL over WiFi and then disabling WiFi and placing a call did nothing to help with data issues. This might be due to my being on an MVNO, but calls/SMS work perfectly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Omar1c:
Been running this since first build and each build gets better and better I haven't stuck with a ROM this long since cm10.2.Random reboots? Meh I honestly don't care for them. Black boxes? Meh its graphical issues so I'm not gonna ***** haha besides this is alpha. Dialer icon? Just an easy decompile. Absolutely love this rom.

stock 4.4

I am loving the rom so far. Really big issues for me are just the reboots and graphical black spots. Overall, I have way more ram free and the rom is just as smooth as it was on 4.1. Was wondering if you had any thoughts for a 4.4 stock build? Like without mods. Thank you for all your work!
