Yes I believe it is. The issue was resolved quite a while ago to my knowledge. Btw. If you want to install slimkat I recommend installing one of the latest weekly. In my experience these are as stable as the 'stable releases'. Eg I have not had any issues at all with latest build since installing it last weekend. One thing more critical for stability to me is using titanium backup. I do use it sparingly, but in or two times 'restoring the wrong app' has led to issues. Latest weekly is absolutely great.
[RAZR HD Android Development] JuampyXnaker:
Thank you very much for the information man, It really took me out of my doubts!!.. ^_^:fingers-crossed::p:good:
[RAZR HD Android Development] bruno46:
Running this ROM for a week now. Must say it's VERY impressive how fast and stable this rom's working. No lags or anything, no appcrash.

Thanks to the devs for this great job!
[RAZR HD Android Development] jldr:
Since this is based on CM, all the changes in the CM gerrit are eventually merged into the weeklies for slimkat, correct?
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
I think it's well designed too but I dislike the pinch to close (would prefer an icon) and tapping on the arrows to shade the window is tough because it's so small :)

---------- Post added at 09:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:00 AM ----------

Most of the time, based on Changelogs, most of the CM commits make it into Slimkat. Sometimes Lars does his own fixes that are unique to Slim though (you'll see his name in the Changelog in those cases).
[RAZR HD Android Development] jldr:
Thanks for the reply. Also I do agree that the pinching is awkward. A button would be nice.
[RAZR HD Android Development] ZEBIATH:
resolution

how i change the resolution? the icons are too small
[RAZR HD Android Development] idless:
Download this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.texdroider.texdroider_dpi

Using this (and making sure root is enabled in developer options) the high resolution is quickly fixed to something more appropriate. I personally use 300, but 280 and 320 are also good numbers. 320 is the default value you will see in stock ROMs and Cyanogenmod. Most likely there will be a built-in way to change to this diretly in the ROM but for now textdroid (or similar) will do.

Does anyone else have troubles with Dropbox login? I can install the app fine but when I try to enter the login details it enexpectly revert back to the main page. I am not SlimRom is to blame but have not seen the bug elsewhere yet.

Dialer

Is anyone getting the dialer location services to work? I have a dialer apk in the system folder, but the homescreen has a "phone" app. The "phone" app does not have location permission, and the option to modify permissions is greyed out in the settings-apps-all menu. I cannot seem to find a "phone" app in the system files using a root file explorer.
[RAZR HD Android Development] RikRong:
Official stable release is out, go get it now.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Cordobes21:
I'm in cm11, should I try this ROM? Is it better than cm11? Opinions???
[RAZR HD Android Development] idless:
Yes you should try this ROM. And yes in my opinion it is the best ROM for razr hd. More features than CM yet far from being overbloated with useless features. Also the weeklys tend to be very stable (less "risky" than daily CM roms).
[RAZR HD Android Development] Xplorer4x4:
Depends on what you mean by better. I can't speak to stability on either rom but I can say that it does have more tweaks then CM. CM doesn't tend to pack a lot of extra feathers these days, at least it didn't last I tried. Slim was a bit to Slim for my tastes feature wise but I like to have a lot of features/tweaks. At the end of the day the best person to decide what the better ROM is would be you. Make a back up using recovery then flash this and try it out.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Cordobes21:
I will try it, thanks for the answers!
[RAZR HD Android Development] Cordobes21:
Just flash it, seems a lot like cm 11, with a little more options, very fast and smooth, will give it a try and see how's battery life

Android Keyboard has stopped

just flashed Official4 and as soon as phone boots I get "Unfortunately, Android Keyboard (AOSP) has stopped." Can't go through the set up. anyone else having issues?? Using minimal gapps

used the AIO gapps and all is well
[RAZR HD Android Development] vipthomps:
Did you dirty flash or wipe completely like they say to do on the main site's announcement?
[RAZR HD Android Development] FLY_EAGLES_FLY:
I never dirty flash. Maybe a bad download. But anyway, got it working with the AIO package
[RAZR HD Android Development] Mofedog:
my GPS has failed after flashing to Slim-xt925-4.4.2.build.4-OFFICIAL-3648.

anyone else?
[RAZR HD Android Development] RikRong:
Weekly is up. ;)
[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
Yes, on two devices; one dirty and one clean flashed. I was getting a grey dot in maps and Foursquare would never update my location. With maps open I toggled the Location quicktile on and off, it asked if I consent with sending location to Google and the dot turned blue. I don't know if it's working now as I'm at home for the night but worth a try for you.

We're not the only ones either:

http://forum.slimroms.net/topic/1722-gps-slimkat-build-4-stable/
[RAZR HD Android Development] RikRong:
For those of you experiencing problems with GPS, did you turn off Privacy Guard? It will block GPS if you don't turn it off. Also, you need to consent like Cool did.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Spidinator:
I never had problems with gps on slim till a few builds ago. CM 11 gps worked great. I ended up copying the gps configuration file from cm11 and copying to slim, reboot and everything was great. Latest build official I didn't have to do anything as it worked right off. Who knows why it works for some and not others.
[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
I actually checked my Privacy Guard settings and the only thing it is active for is non-default text message clients and it would pop up if it was blocking something anyways. The GPS status icon only shows up in Maps and Foursquare...even then inconsistently. GPS Test shows GPS is off even though I have all location services enabled and I even installed an optimized gps configuration file I have had success with in the past.

My immediate reaction was to say it probably depends on location but you being Canadian and having the latest build work for you throws that theory out!
[RAZR HD Android Development] Mofedog:
GPS was working perfectly up until stable build 4, just installed weekly 4.2 and still having the same issues.

google maps gives an error no GPS hardware.

i wiped dalvik cache, cache and system when upgrading to build 4. normally i would wipe data too but the install instructions said this was not necessary. could this be why i am having issues?
[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
No, there is very rarely a need to wipe /data.
[RAZR HD Android Development] RikRong:
Yeah, I guess I spoke too soon. GPS is definitely not working. Maps acts like there is no GPS and my GPS Status app just FC's when I try to open it. I'm not super worried about this because I hardly use GPS, I'm sure they'll get it fixed.
[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
http://forum.slimroms.net/topic/1752-gps-does-not-turn-on/

They've found the culprit, shouldn't be long now....
[RAZR HD Android Development] idless:
Beta 4.4 is running really good here! Smooth and with super battery life. It is probably due to changes in the CM base but I like it more than release 4.

---------- Post added at 07:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:56 AM ----------

..only issue is that can't get the dropbox app to work..

Edit: also there is an issue with GPS.
[RAZR HD Android Development] StefanGA:
any plans to move to the msm8960 unified device tree? or am I just not seeing it on your download page?
[RAZR HD Android Development] abuttino:
Just subscribing here.. Want to know when this GPS problem is fixed.

I use Geofences and absolutely need to have GPS data accurate.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Spidinator:
Is gps working on this latest build. I figured it would be as they were aware of the problem a couple nightlies ago? This was the main reason I switched a couple builds as well to cm.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Mofedog:
apparently the XT925/926 maintainer (darkspadez?) is having some personal problems.

all the best if he is, he has done great work on this rom and hopefully a gps fix is not far away.
[RAZR HD Android Development] idless:
Latest dropbox update is fixed is u usable with slimrom). GPS issue persist but is to my knowledge only other issue. Also all the best to darkspadez!. Hope all will work out well (with private life, more important than Rom building of cause).

[RAZR HD Android Development] lesscro:
Hi,

does anybody can explain me something, this rom include superuser feature but all apps say i m not root...

What does it mean ?

i miss somethnig ?
[RAZR HD Android Development] raymondchiang:
I encountered this yesterday. I had to go to "Developer options" and then enable "Root access" under the "Debugging" section. To make the "Developer options" menu appear, go to "About phone" and tap on "Build number" a few times.
[RAZR HD Android Development] lesscro:
damn, i forgot this easter egg... how to activate dev options... you make my day... i want upgrade Nova Launcher but can't restore my full apps because verification is different...

Now i can patch services.jar to make it universal...

Cheers

Thx buddy !
[RAZR HD Android Development] raymondchiang:
No problem. Glad I could help. Good thing I ran into the same root problem when I flashed the ROM yesterday. Now if only GPS would work, then it would be perfect. It seems to work pretty well otherwise.
[RAZR HD Android Development] lesscro:
Yep but i want nova launcher as user app and not as system app... i try to install/restore my version as system app...

Bootloop on slimKat logo but system is launched, i hear notification...
[RAZR HD Android Development] abuttino:
Not exactly sure how ya'll can live without GPS..
[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
I can't live without GPS, I reverted back to an older version after a few days of frustration.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Spidinator:
Is there still no gps on latest 4.9 build?
[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
Tried it on 4.9-WEEKLY-3910 and no go...
[RAZR HD Android Development] NERO76:
gps not working on slim xt925

Any solution for this trouble??? the gps not work or have some fc--a lot with diferent programs...

Waiting for an answer....:good:
[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
To have working GPS, go back to Slim-xt925-4.4.2.build.3-OFFICIAL-3052 here if you are XT925: http://slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewcategory/1049-xt925 and here if you are XT926: http://slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewcategory/1071-xt926

As for the force closes, it sounds like you have a bad flash..
[RAZR HD Android Development] idless:
It seems that something has gone wrong with the building of weekly 5.1 for xt925. It is only about 8mb and there is no changelog file.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Spidinator:
New weekly is up now! Haven't flashed it yet so not sure if gps is working or not yet. If anyone knows please let us know:)
[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
No go in latest nightly... :(
[RAZR HD Android Development] idless:
Except gps it seems Good!
[RAZR HD Android Development] jeepcook:

hey is this rom stable and good for daily usage on the xt925? are there any issues? thx for your answers

( especially regarding the official build nr.4)

[RAZR HD Android Development] idless:
I believe gps is working in builds around beta 3.6. ..in case gps is a must have. In my experience the beta builds are about as good as the official final builds. That is generally very stable and good. What sometimes seems to happen is that bugs are introduced via the CM repository (the nightlies). That means certain builds are better than others also depending on CM. My experience anyway.
[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
Yes, anything before build 4 had working GPS. All of the nightly builds have been just as stable as official builds for slim in my opinion. It's just sad that I always seem to pick the ROMs (on any device) that lose developer support... So if you see me in a thread, run away!
[RAZR HD Android Development] Mofedog:
GPS is definitely working on 3.10.

I find volume for voice calls is very low though. anyone else have this issue?
[RAZR HD Android Development] FLY_EAGLES_FLY:
Hit the volume button then use your finger to drag the on-screen volume bar up. Kind of annoying to do all the time but it works for me
[RAZR HD Android Development] Mofedog:
Thanks, I've done this but it has no effect.
[RAZR HD Android Development] rey2gato:
This ROM is stable for daily use?

Any bugs?
[RAZR HD Android Development] Spidinator:
Haven't tried latest 5.2 weekly but before that only bug I really heard of is the GPS not working properly.
[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
Still no GPS in 5.2 weekly....shake events work well at least.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Spidinator:
I couldn't wait for GPS any longer I had to flash it anyway. Besides that though no other bugs I've encountered
[RAZR HD Android Development] rey2gato:
This rom support slow motion video? The 4.1 stock rom supports it
[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
There's a new nightly out and the changelog has the line:

2014-05-21 | Fix Gps libraries [demetris]

I don't know if this fixes the GPS for us or not, I actually need my phone for phone purposes so I won't be able to test until late tmmw or the next day.
[RAZR HD Android Development] iceeyes91:
GPS is working fine again on slimkat 5.4.

Edit :

I am sorry for the wrong statement.

I had a fairly enough accurate location in ingress and it was not displaying "no location service available", so I thought the GPS bug was fixed.

I am sorry for the inconvenience I caused to all of you.
[RAZR HD Android Development] raymondchiang:
Hmm. Interesting...GPS still doesn't work on my XT925. GPS Test shows it as off. I tried both dirty and clean flashes of 5.4.
[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
Not working on my XT925 either...I was all excited and now I'm not :(
[RAZR HD Android Development] Mofedog:
same here, GPS definitely not working on build 5.4.
[RAZR HD Android Development] scottocs:
Dumb question here. How do I know which of these ROMs are 4.4.2 using the new source or the old ones?
[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
"New source" as in official Motorola KitKat source? Absolutely none of the roms except stock OTA/soak have the new source.
[RAZR HD Android Development] mega_man:
is this rom unfined means can i run it on my atrix hd ?
[RAZR HD Android Development] Mofedog:
new weekly is up, i'm not game enough to try it though. can't see any device specific gps fixes in the change log.
[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
Ya, sad to say I won't be testing it anymore either until the dev here or a dev from Slimrom announces a fix. I'm using Gummy Rom if anyone is interested in something with working GPS..
[RAZR HD Android Development] idless:
Unfortunately gps is still out. All the rest is fine. I can understand it people find it hard to live without gps bbq though.
[RAZR HD Android Development] carmatana:
Cyanogenmod 11 KitKat ( unified Moto_Msm8960) is doing pretty well, including GPS. Its a pain not having it in great slimkat

[RAZR HD Android Development] Spidinator:
Anyone tried the 5.10 Unified build from slim? Does gps work?
[RAZR HD Android Development] abuttino:
It's a pretty safe bet that this ROM is officially abandoned.

Sent from my Moto X
[RAZR HD Android Development] Spidinator:
Why would it be abandoned? They just updated to 4.4.4. They just moved to unified builds like CM. Is it because of the new kernel?
[RAZR HD Android Development] idless:
Sure hope it is not!!
[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
GPS is confirmed to work in the unified builds!

Abandoned by the OP of this thread...luckily the Slim Team unified for us.

[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
DT is for the moto x family. You want moto_msm8960 for the xt925 (and xt926 and Atrix HD and Razr m and photon q lte)

i'm running 4.4.2, twrp 2.7.0.0 on xt925, i can't seem to flash any of the newer builds of any rom these days, the rom boot animation just cycles indefinitely.

perhaps install stock 4.4.3/4 and retry?
[RAZR HD Android Development] carmatana:
Did you do a clean Install: Wipe Cache, Data, Dalvik, and System? Have restored something with Titanium?

You may try to download again the rom and gapps just in case.

I have no problems and have the same xt925, 4.4.2 and twrp 2.7.0.0

I am using AIO gapps, I have had problems with the slim version.

---------- Post added at 02:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:03 AM ----------

I tried the last WEEKLY.

The only problem is that the screen blinks when in landscape (is just me?)

GPS works PERFECTLY.

Very stable, in more than one day with intense usage I did not have reboots
[RAZR HD Android Development] Spidinator:
That's good to hear the gps is finally working. As for the blinking I thought I read it was a problem in the CM builds as well but I can't seem to find where I read it.

I think I might just flash the new build now!
[RAZR HD Android Development] sifuz:
definitely, i always "factory reset/cache, data, dalvik, system wipe" before i install any custom rom, i've gone through about 15 different roms so i'm pretty used to installing them now.

upon further investigation, i believe i found my problem, the latest builds of some of the better roms around here use the latest kernel 3.4 which can only be applied via OTA

there is a post where a user supplied a file to help us install said update, but he took it offline and we're unable to update to 4.4.4
[RAZR HD Android Development] darkspadez:
What do you mean Abandoned? I just am never on XDA anymore :) who do you think keeps SlimRom's repos up to date with the latest Motorola stuff?
[RAZR HD Android Development] coolloser:
My bad, I was mistaken...I had assumed since there was no word here or the official Slim forums for a GPS fix since April. Good to hear that you are still around for usand I apologize for assuming.
[RAZR HD Android Development] idless:
Is it true that the the newest builds use the 3.4 based kernel? If so it is great news for those of us updated to kitkat bootloader. The newer kernel is faster/better optimized for sure. In the end I believe all will be on this 3.4 based. If not before then at least when kitkat finally is released for xt925 officially.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Spidinator:
I dont think the new builds are using the 3.4 kernel yet or I am pretty sure that Slim stable 6 would not have worked when I flashed it!
[RAZR HD Android Development] Hydr0id:
How is stable 6 working for you?
[RAZR HD Android Development] vipthomps:
Confirmed it will not boot on a 3.4 kernel (no surprise but figured I'd try while watching TV)
[RAZR HD Android Development] Spidinator:
Working great! Only glitch is the landscape bug where the screen goes a bit buggy which can be turned off.
[RAZR HD Android Development] darkspadez:
Get build 6 while it is still hot.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Tech_Savvy:
just to make sure...I'm on 4.4.2 kernel 3.4....the weekly builds are for 3.4 right? build 6 offical is still for the old kernel? sorry if i'm asking an annoying question i read the thread i just want to make sure...im still new a the flashing rom party :p
[RAZR HD Android Development] Spidinator:
Build 6 is still the old kernel so if you flash with the new one bets are it just won't boot!
[RAZR HD Android Development] morcego.surf:
I am on 4.1.2 and want to flash the version 6 . Do i can it ?

Thanks !
[RAZR HD Android Development] Tech_Savvy:
yes...stable 6 is for 4.1.2
[RAZR HD Android Development] carmatana:
How do you turn off this flaw? Do you mean turning off screen rotation?
[RAZR HD Android Development] omlet:

Set phone in fastboot, connect USB then open cmd in Windows and navigate to where fastboot is then enter fastboot via cmd and enter the command to flash it. Maybe your already doing it that way but I tried just opening the fastboot I the folder first as I hadn't done it for awhile till I realized what I was doing wrong :)
[RAZR HD Android Development] DizzyFox:
Sweet that sounds simple enough. You would by any chance know the command prompts
[RAZR HD Android Development] Spidinator:
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Recovery.img is the name of the file I just rename it to that to keep it simple.

Good luck!
[RAZR HD Android Development] DizzyFox:
Ok that got me to the fastboot screen. I tried all sorts of commands but nothing would flash the recovery.img for me so close lol
[RAZR HD Android Development] Spidinator:
Just make sure that after fastboot flash recovery_______________name of file you downloaded.img and make sure that file is in the same folder as fastboot :) hopefully that works for you
[RAZR HD Android Development] DizzyFox:
I have them both on the desktop. Windows cmd finds and opens the fastboot.exe just find its the command prompt won't start the flash it shows that flashall is a prompt to flash .IMG even tried that no luck. Anyway thanks so much for your help. Will try again tomorrow

This is quite amazing. 3 pages of talk about installing this ROM and no usage/bug reports. Why is it so difficult to install?
