No major issues to report, haven't had an awful lot of time to play with it. I'm with you though, there are so many great AOSP ROMs out for this phone now it's hard to pick one. But I definitely think the stock camera in Slim is just way better than anything else out right now, keeps bringing me back :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] canderoc:
Kept up with each new build and this latest is the fist time I've had random reboots. Not many, just 3 times, and everything else seems to be working well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mrbigdrawsz:
Halo in the future?

LOVE this Rom! Been running regularly for quite a while, but flashed Vanir and I've fallen in love with Halo 2.0. Are there any plans to add Halo into this Rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cordell12:
Maybe the OP? ;)

Those with the reboots, turn ART off and go back to dalvik.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ijustdontcare:
Yea, tried that but links went work at the time... I can get ya a cat when you need it. Seems to happen all the time with voice keyboard.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
I've had reboots as well and am already running dalvik. I'll try to grab a logcat next time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] roboots21:
I have been running ART for quite some time on Slim, and not a single reboot. I think you are correct though in that we should isolate the reboots in Dalvik as ART is what it is, and it is very experimental.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pistoffjstr:
Love the rom. Only issue im having is now and then an app will disappear and when i try to reinstall it it tells me there is insufficient storage space. Other than that the rom is awesome!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imaverik:
Awesome ROM!!!

using weekly 2.4/// with ktoonz and the LuigiBull - Nightmare to remember kernel settings. Have radio only of mj5 on S4. Works flawlessly so far. loaded it yesterday and ran it all day with no issues.

Another great SlimROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] drt054:
Once again, we are not worthy of the 2.5 Weekly.. lol (last time I posted this, it was there in an hour) :angel:

I just used the Build Prop Editor to change it and it didn't stick. I saved, and hit reboot when it prompted, but it didn't reboot. I rebooted manually and the setting didn't stick. I open Build Prop Editor and it is back to 370.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dadoc04:
try using root explorer or some file explorer. Make sure you open in text editor (long press the build.prop) and then do a save/exit after you edit the 370....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SamXp:
Just realized I needed to install Superuser and re-enable root for Apps and Adb in Advanced settings. Did that, re-edited the Build Prop and sure enough - Superuser requested access, which made it stick. Back to normal sized text now!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dadoc04:

Is there a photosphere camera that works on this ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mattevt:
This rom is awesome. When it supports exFAT, I'll come back it to it for sure.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
After I installed RC2 I noticed Tap & Pay is now available in settings. When I open it all it says is 'Learn More', but it doesn't seem to do anything. Am I missing something?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SamXp:
Is anyone else having trouble viewing any YouTube video with an ad? It just spins, "buffering" for eternity.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mattevt:
I decided to go with the Rom for now, despite the lack of exFAT support. I formatted my sdcard to FAT32 and things seem to be working fine.

I have one question: Everything on the home page is smaller. I thought it had to do with the grid size, but I adjusted it to what I normally use, but the status bar is about half the size it normally is, and the widgets I add are also half sized, and can't be re-sized (even after verifying the re-size setting in Nova Launcher). Is there a way I can address this.

I really try not to post the same thing twice but I really need a photosphere camera, idc if its even on this ROM that would make things easier but if its only available on another ROM so be it, is there a photosphere camera for this phone?

Yes on there site http://slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewcategory/978-addons4-4/downloads/dlsearch

need some help with root

So I flashed this clean from a TW rom (Eclipse) and it says I do not have root. I can still boot manually into TWRP but can't use supersu. it fails to update binary. any ideas what to do?

I flashed newest weekly and the minimal kat gapps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dadoc04:
Enable developer settings.... Go into settings , dev options and toggle superuser to none and then adb and apps or whatever it says

I got that to work. Thank you. However I cannot get my playstore or gmail to sync. I am now loading up slimbean without issue. Weird though. Maybe will give it a try later. Is this common?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dadoc04:
Not that I know of.

Have you gone into settings, accounts.... Click on your gmail acct... You should see a list of google apps.. Make sure gmail is checked.

Another thing to try is make sure background data is on.

Settings, data usage... Then hit menu and verify background data is allowed

Anyone have the menu button on the bottom icon row kinda just shift to the right? Seems like the icons got little bigger on their own

Yup, happened randomly. Just set the the size again in navigation settings, hasn't happened again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] doctordroid:
I got Slimkat up and running now. No issues to report. Thanks guys for the help! One quick question. anyway to change LCD density on KitKat I don't like the small icons or i guess the small clock widget size rather. I like a prominent clock to read and the mini-me one just ain't doing it for me. Thanks

After a reboot I was stuck in the Custom boot screen.. had to reflash the ROM to get out of it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chaos2092:
I thought this happened to me when I was on the alpha but the boot time was just extremely long... I'm rebooting right now and hoping this doesn't happen to me. Did you just wipe cache and dirty flash it or full wipe again?

I'm having some wi-fi issues on this, it worked at first, then was connected but I wasn't getting any actual internet connection, then upon turning wi-fi on and off it was fine... then eventually Wi-fi refused to turn on at all until I activated airplane mode. Strange stuff. Hoping this reboot thing isn't actually a thing so I can test out if the Wi-fi is actually still an issue after a reboot

EDIT: It hung on the lockscreen just like yours but all I did was pull the battery and it booted up fairly quickly after that, I guess YMMV

Wifi is indeed still broken, I didn't even have that issue on the alpha build. Odd, probably just not a great flash but I'll look forward to newer builds and hang onto a nandroid of this while I go back to what I was using prior. I'm much too used to stock Slim features I suppose haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] drt054:
I pulled the battery a few times before wiping cache/dalvik then still hung, then just reflashed the rom only, then booted up quickly. This happened to CM10.2 quite often in the early builds so not worried about it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xboxexpert:
Same as other KitKat builds on SGS4 the push notifications for Corporate Exchange email works for about an hour then stops working and you need to reboot the phone to get your email to sync from the server again...

Nobody ever answered. Is it possible to turn off the touch key lights? Am I just not seeing it?

Actually posted this is wrong thread by accident but thanks for answering. I can't stand those key Iights lol OCD I guess
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bensl84:
can't kill nfc and its greyed out in options. any way to turn it off at least. tried freezing it in titanium. by the way. on davlik latest kitkat beta1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Glitch4583:
Odd to bump into this issue again. My SD card is showing as empty. When I had this issue on another 4.4 ROM, I just flashed KT's kernel. Now, even after doing that, still no SD card. Any thoughts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] drt054:
Since this is still a beta ROM you may just want to use stock kernel for now.. or try other ways to access the storage such as.. If you are using Root Explorer it is /extSdCard for external, /sdcard for internal. Otherwise /storage/emulated/0 is internal or /storage/sdcard1 is external storage or there are many ways to access storage depending on the app.. Think also /data/media is internal storage :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cordell12:
those without roration of launcher, you did turn it on in the launcher settings as well, right? we have rotation in sprint version, after selecting it in Nova settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dadoc04:
I toggled airplane mode on n off a couple times and magically NFC turned itself off and un-grayed.

Anyone else loose root on this? I couldn't get any root apps to work so switched back to kitkang. Otherwise I really liked the looks of it and features.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mitchallica:
In order to get root to function I had to to go into Settings>Advanced Options>Superuser and then go into it's settings and open 'Superuser Access'. Even though Apps and ADB is already selected, select it again from the options. Then I was able to obtain root.

In Nova, I have Screen Orientation set for 'Auto-Rotate'. Not sure if it matters but I replaced the Nova included with my paid version.

in addition to what Mitchallica suggested, you could also flash Chainfire's SuperSU when you flash a new build.

Does anyone else's SMS show double messages on your end but does not actually send two messages? Strangest little glitch...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] NxtGenCowboy:
This seems to be quite common with 4.4 roms.

ART does not play nice. I switched over and the screen would keep not turning on, the LEDs for the nav would illuminate but screen would not.

Any steps required to enable LTE? 3g only after flash. Running LTE CDMA evo on mobile network setting

You should have lte with those settings.

If you don't mind me asking, were you running the Google play edition rom before flashing slim Kat?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stl-fan:
Sure was...how'd ya guess? ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
Same thing happened to me as well. How I fixed it was reflashing the Google Play Edition rom and following instructions to get LTE to return. Once I got LTE going on that ROM I reflashed slim.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pfidr34:
Anyone have problems with gapps? Can't download anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] edlee:
Proximity wakelock is caused from being on the phone with screen off, I don't think its a bug
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] doctordroid:
Isn't it strange that I only have this wake lock on this ROM? I never had it before and my phone using behavior has not changed so why would it be different.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] edlee:
the wakelock time should match the amount of time on phone calls, i have seen it on other roms, but it maybe under a different header
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] doctordroid:
I are what you are saying, but... Why would bbs change its header? Bbs hasn't changed what it is measuring. The Rom has changed. So I don't think it makes sense what you are suggesting. Maybe you're right? It's not a big deal really I was just hoping to figure it out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] binqker:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ecossais:
I was unable to get my Sandisk 64 gig card to format using Slimkat and my first attempts to format it to Fat32 on my Windows 7 computer appeared to format correctly but showed up as empty under Slimkat. Finally I downloaded a program called Miniaide Fat32 Formatter Home Edition 1.05 free download here http://download.cnet.com/MiniAide-Fat32-Formatter/3000-2094_4-75701815.html. I used it to format my sdcard to Fat32 successfully, I also tried a program called guiformat but that did not work. Hope this helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ejohn3288:
This program worked well and also used MiniTool Partition Wizard. I realized it wasn't working because it was designated as Logical drive instead of Primary. I was able to fix that using either the program. Working correctly now. thanks!

In previous versions of slimkat and also other kitkat roms I've tried, once I've paired my phone with my htc stereoclip, all I would need to do is turn on my phone's bluetooth and then the phone would connect to the htc stereoclip. WIth slimkat 3.2, I keep having to put the htc stereoclip into "pairing mode" to get it to connect with my phone.

Other than this, the rom is running great. I have no other complaints and this one is not a big deal, but I use my htc stereoclip every time I drive my car and I would love to get this bluetooth problem back to normal behavior. Thank you for the hard work!
