There is corrupted data in your camera folder probably due to an older buggy cm nightly cam apk. Might be a single photo or a thumbnail..

My advice, move all photos from any camera folders into other folders and delete all thumbnails. Then restore them back to your phone.

FolderMount works for me but haven't tried DCIM folder tbh.

Flash SuperSU update again (search xda) and you'll be fine.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kantjer:
Even when you use superSU it's still advisable to enable rootaccess for app and ADB in dev options.

Is there a way to prevent the navigation buttons/software keys from reappearing every time I reboot my phone? For me, that's kinda annoying in an otherwise so far great ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kantjer:
do not use Gravity Box
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] munichsfinest:
Ok, you got me there ;) Funny though, as I never had this problem with or without Gravity Box regardless of the ROM...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] corb06:
I'm also getting random freezes with slim rom. I have tried using stock, kt and alucard kernel but same issues on all. I'm using xposed also with about 10 modules. The freezing is sustained for about 6 seconds each time it happens. Often when I switch apps through notifications or switching to cameras and so on.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] s3icc0:
he is not kidding .... read gravitz box thread and zou will find it is not working well with this rom ...

---------- Post added at 02:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 PM ----------

hi this is the promised list of apps I remove from the rom:

ROM

/system/app/ BasicDreams.apk, Calculator.apk, Calendar.apk, DSPManager.apk, Email.apk, Exchange.apk, Gallery2.apk, HTMLViewer.apk, Music.apk, PhotoTable.apk, PicoTts.apk, PrintSpooler.apk, SlimFileManager.apk, SlimIRC.apk, SoundRecorder.apk, Stk.apk, VisualizationWallpapers.apk

/system/priv-app/ VpnDialogs.apk

AIO Gapps

/system/app/ CloudPrint2.apk, FaceLock.apk, GoogleEars.apk, GoogleHome.apk, GooglePlus.apk, GoogleTTS.apk, Music.apk

/system/priv-app/ Music.apk, talkback.apk

/system/tts/

/system/vendor/

hope it will help soving the freezes
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] munichsfinest:
Does anyone know if there is a Dalvik patch working with this ROM? I tried any patch I have (quite a few) and none worked, a corresponding thread also contained this problem, but you never know...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Jsilver73:
I've just removed everything on your list apart from Google home because i use gnl and i think that is needed for that??

Do you have a script that removes these apks to make life easy when flashing?

Let's see what happens now anyway regarding freezes. Thank you for sharing :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kantjer:
Making a script to remove those at boot is easy. I already have a script doing that for some apps, I only need to add the missing ones.

I will make one later (could be after the weekend depending on how much sunshine we have.

I will include all the apk's so you only need to remove te one they want to keep.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] s3icc0:
Well i am not using script :) hope you will figure out which one is causing the freezes :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] leijonasisu:
Came here to say this, I'm getting really darn sick of this.

It happens especially when trying to open an app from it's active notification in the notification bar, and when I try and replay ANY video that I have recorded in ANY player.

I'm really considering ditching this ROM.. both the stable and the weekly have this issue.

Also there doesn't seem to be any way to mass close open apps in the background by holding the middle menu button like you could in previous versions of AOSP.

On top of the insane battery drain even in idle.. loss of the Samsung camera and overall incompatibilites no matter what DPI I set. I'm going to start looking for something else.

GLONASS?

Guys, is GLONASS working with SlimKat? It used to not to be working in all 4.4, but in the most recent Samsung official build it's fixed.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kantjer:
I'm starting to believe it's not just one app but more a memory release issue. It's starting to look that the memory isn't released fast enough and thereby choking the whole system. That would also explain why you don't have the issue because you have far less apps running in the background. And also why others using memory intensive apps like video are also having issues.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] pitastrudl:
Thats possible, since everytime I open Tasker I see "low memory" report and the log is full of them.

Hmm... I don't know how to check wether GLONASS works or not, but I was able to get a location fix in Google Maps by using the GPS alone (no network / data) in less than 10 seconds, which is impressive, I think.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] _Sofos_:
About the freezes.. I had them both with Cm and Pac Rom and now I have them with Slim as well.

Might have 3,4 per day, might have none. Definitely cannot reproduce them in any way I've tried or in the ways you've said.

About the clean all recent apps, a simple search would have solved your problem. Simply pinch in with two fingers inside the recents panel.

About the insane battery drain.. I'm actually amazed with the battery life I'm getting so.. user's fault, your fault.

Loss of the Samsung camera? It's aosp place here mate, not Tw_framework land, you can use different apps like snap camera but I'm pretty sure you won't be amazed.

No incompatibilities for me btw.

Anyway, I respect your opinion but I would advice you to look for Samsung based Rom's and not aosp based.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] latino147:
I'm wondering now, aren't the freezes caused by some hw issue? Faulty memory controller or something like that?

That could explain it happening on multiple rom/kernel combinations.

Some S3's had an 'insane mmc controller' issue that caused freezes.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Formhault:

The battery icons have definitely changed during charging. I use circle battery with percentage and when I connected a charger the text would go green but the rotating circle would remain white. Now everything goes green while charging but I swear the options have changed, it now says circle charging colour but before I thought it said text charging colour?

As for me, I chose green as custom colour, so "text only" goes green only after 90% or smth like that.

just my 2cents

ps. this also prove to me that the rom is not to blame for that
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] __NBH__:
The slim recent bug is very strange because some people have it and some don't which tends to suggest it isn't a problem with the ROM directly but something else or how things are working together.

I had it from the very beginning but I recently converted my data, cache and system to F2FS which involved backing it up, formatting partitions and restoring the data. Since I did this the recents is working perfectly. The problem is I don't know which part of the process fixed it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Jsilver73:
I think you are right - is not rom not kernel but something in aosp.
