Thanks

Thanks for this great, stable ROM! I have just one suggestion: The thread title still has 4.4.2 as the android version... Shouldn't it be updated to 4.4.4?

:laugh:
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] insane2103:
nice question, the thread is about stable (4.4.2) and weeklies (4.4.4)...

Recommendations?

I am visiting my daughter, that got this brand new S3, loaded with Samsung stuff and crapware installed by a shop in Bangkok, that finally killed the region lock. Meaning she can use her asian SIM now with this european phone, but...

Problem is, that she get flooded with notifications, requesting her to install this, visit that and much more. Chinese baidu browser etc....

So, before I slim this down with an easy to use and fast OS - Is there anything I should know before installing slim ?

Is it stable, will it run her favorite facebook games and most important, is it good for heavy use of facebook, uploading loads of selfies every day. Camera is most important.

Any needed workarounds?

She might be better off with other ROMs, but I know nothing about this phone. I only know slim, as I maintain the SlimKat for the HOX and love it.

This is the first time ever, I hold and use a Samsung phone. Using Odin I managed to install twrp2.7.1

I could not beat the region lock, since it was already updated to android 4.3, so we went to the shop, that probably called Europe to unlock it online.

Any risk of reverting, so it gets locked again?

Many questions, I know. Thank in advance for any help.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] insane2103:
This is by far, the best rom I tested on my s3. The camera works fine, paranoid and cm have the camera bug.

I can run Facebook and most of the games with no trouble at all.

This rom is faster a better than my stock zto rom.

Running latest weekly.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Orel1996:
This rom is definitely awesome but maybe for someone who won't be able to handle with little bugs or problems you should install stock based ROM, like Archidroid V1 or NeatROM
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] royr719:
Could you add an option to show network speeds in the status bar? This is a very useful feature for a lot of users, at least for me :)

New Stable!

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] insane2103:
why OTA couldn´t find it?

EDIT: little bug, at slimcenter, it says "download SLIM BEAN"... And if you click, it opens the slim KAT download...
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Allen.:
Works like a charm.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] insane2103:
I just can't change the focus on the camera app, whenever I put, it still stays in Continuous

EDIT: i changed the focus to all the options, and in the end "automatic" and it stood in automatic. must be just a minor bug. ANYWAY the camera worked great even stuck in "continuous".
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] amit3880:
I agree! This ROM is awsome but not for everyone.

This is for pure/minimalistic/plain looks with good performance.

But for those who are very fond/addicted/use-to sammy features, this is not right choice for you.

hit thanks!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] teemo:
She is used to Sony Ericsson (arc) and don't care about Sammy features. If I'm fast she will not get used to Sammy and she will have one problem less.

I will start with slim and see how it goes the next few days.

Is the focus issue confirmed ? If that's the case I will flash the previous release or whatever you can recomment.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
No problems here with focus and google camera. Works like a glove.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] insane2103:
teemo, I edited my post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=54641458&postcount=2493

and yeah, google camera works fine, and also the built in camera is great, even stucking in continuous the camera performed pretty well...

the only thing i noticed is that, the previous slimkat version (weekly 5800) was DARKER, hence, the facebook notification icon is blue, like the original facebook notification icon, and it used to be black in TRDS...

another thing, play store icon returned to the stock play store icon, that white "bag", I used to prefer the triangle one that i had in previous gapps...
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mrm_mrm:
The same problem here, focus the camera not change. In this updte there were many fixes translations but forget the Portuguese. But is the best ROM the Android base
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] VictorLapin:
The latest Play Store cannot be TRDSed yet, that's why the old icon...
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] insane2103:
yeah, and I went to the translation website, and there´s mostly translated.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] teemo:
Sammy device cleaned for trash.

SlimKat inserted.

Personal items restored.

All seem good. Hope the lady will like it.

All I can say: It feels damn good :D

Is there a way to stop Systemui from crashing (systemui has stopped working) everytime it's running low on RAM. It does this everytime I launch a high resource game.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Working on it but crowding is having issues with there api.

Nope those are very old translations (slimbean). We are in the process of Restarting our translation again.

Why in God's name you running out of ram?

Any Google app will be stock Google colours after an update. Google has announced many changes to Google apps, more than the team can keep up with so i think they are waiting for the new Google material ui to be fully integrated before looking at the trds gapps fully. You could look at the team blackout thread for apps in the meantime though

Rom is great. The only thing that suck is the GPS performance. Keeps loosing the signal which makes it impossible to use it while driving or running :(
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] franatic08:
I can't comment on ROM quality since I installed it just a few hours ago. First impression is great.

One issue I encountered so far is that Telegram FC's when browsing the external SD from if I want to add an attachment.

Maybe anyone can helps out with a fix (if present).

Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Not so much that they are releasing fast, our man dankoman is quick at updating, some of the apps with new ui will not decompile. So until apk tool is updated (I believe it won't happen until final sdk being released for L) some apps won't be trds

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] moriansafas:
I really liked boeffla kernel 2.2, but the sound was too buggy so that always after a reboot the sound was silenced and you had to readjust it with the kernel app…

But performance was awesome! Yank555 although I couldn't test till now?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] twiddles:
Yes, can confirm GPS works well on high precision. I use strava app with no probs..
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] kilador:
I tried with the high precision setting and with the faster gps app bit still, gps performance is terrible. Keeps loosing the signal all the time so it's useless for driving, running and any similar activities...

Makes me want to go back to Sammy roms ;-(

Question: since SlimKat is 4.4.4 (and will stay for a time), could the thread's title be changed accordingly?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] insane2103:
Just got an "unable to connect to camera" error.

What I was doing:

1. I was using the camera from the lock screen, swiping to the left

2. I was taking pictures of documents of a law suit (so, I was facing the phone down to a table where the document was)

3. Since I had to search around the documents, the phone kept turning the screen off, so I did the swype on the lock screen a fee times.

Well, I took 3 pictures, and them I tried to take another, when I swyped the screen got black, I tried opening the camera from the main screen, nothing happened, them I tried google camera and got the message.

This used to happen in CM and PA.

Bugreport attached.

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Egozy:
Two things I couldn't find:

1) DPI change - FAQ on website says it's on interface -> general, and such a menu don't even exist.

2) Something like Quick Ribbons. A way to quickly toggle on/off stuff from the notification pulldown.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] akhil333:
1- As far as i know there are no option in settings. You have to install textdroider_dpi app from play store. Change dpi to your desirable value.

2- quick ribbons are not present in this rom. (Not checked the latest build though)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] jugg1es:
As above, dpi can be changed with texdroider or build prop editor. Both available in the playstore

If you don't like the QR tiles there is the option to add shortcuts to the bottom of the notification pulldown for almost everything. Go to settings /interface /notification and QS drawer /shortcuts

“Our great democracies still tend to think that a stupid man is more likely to be honest than a clever man.”*―*Bertrand Russell
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Egozy:
DPI I figured it out, thanks. However, the shortcuts are only for applications or widgets - can't put a quicktoggle for wifi or sound/vibrate and such. Torch launches the Torch application instead of turning it on, and so. I would like to know if there's anyway to get the quick toggles.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] akhil333:
I think no ribbon in this rom... Iam using liquid smooth and it has that option. Hope they include it on their upcoming builds.

Download links

Hi Guys,

Need an help.! Could you provide me the download links for Slim Rom Build 7.0 Official and Gapps for 4.4.4 for Galaxy S3 I9300 and Galaxy S2 SGH T989(aka herculus).

I am getting confused which to download from Slimroms site.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] jforme:
There is nothing to get confused about, you decide if you really want to get stable or weekly releases from the download section for your device. Typically, after the first stable release, you want to go with the weekly releases as it is built on the latest stable release only with more fixes,features etc. At this point in time, Slimkat weekly 7.2.1 is the latest build.

Here is the link for I9300, http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewcategory/628-i9300 .

Also, remember to download GAPPs separately from ADDONs section as it is not included in the ROM itself.

http://slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewcategory/1150-addons4-4

Please remember, this is a I9300 forum and do not ask about other devices here, post in appropriate device forum.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mpadhu:
