My first SlimLP steps

1) First boot took >5 min.

2) Problems with the setup assistant:

Activating cellular service doesn't succeed, I guess this is because of RIL not working yet, right?

Wifi setup worked.

Afterwards it stays a long time in "Checking connection...".

Adding the google account FCs after entering the first char of my password. The setup assistant then goes back to the language/country selection. I tried without signing in to google but it restarts nevertheless.

The only other thing besides the setup assistant that I could reach was the settings via the status bar. Here I could sign in to my google account, but it worked only when typing the password chars very slowly.

After that I had to go once more through all the setup assistant steps, to finally get to the home screen.

3) App download and installation in google play is very slow, and it is not my Wifi connection. File transfers via file manager are as fast as usual.

4) In "settings -> apps -> running" it shows all apps except the foreground app permanently restarting, with ca. 140 MB free RAM. Is this due to the high minfree values? I don't have an adb at hand so I installed android terminal emulator and set the minfree values with it, but it didn't seem to help. I also installed PerformanceControl but it FCs when trying to navigate to the memory settings.

5) Many if not all Slim customizations are missing.

6) Changing lcd_density in build.prop didn't seem to have an effect.

7) Overall UI performance wasn't all that bad.

Going back to SlimKat now because I need to use my phone :)

Looking forward to the 1.0 release...

cant turn debug mode on cause i cant set up my device after google acc registration my phone goes back to the beginning

what to do ? 0_o

thx in advance
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mstreibe:
If you succeeded with the google account, just go through the setup process again. It went through the end afterwards here.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] AgroCPU:
cant go trough google acc -__-

is it possible to turn usb-debug on via init.d script?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mstreibe:
Can you describe what goes wrong? I had issues too, see my post #11. The registration always failed when trying to enter the account password. At one point it worked, though, when I typed the PW very slowly, waiting a sec or 2 between each char.

BTW at some stage during the setup I was able to enter the settings via the status bar. I think it was right at the time when it jumped back to start. There you could enable the developer options and enable USB debugging.

This worked for me, it failed when it asked me to enter the PW.

Does the dialog open for you, but when you start typing your email address it jumps back to the language setup?

Did you try typing very slowly?

Did you check if you can enter the settings via the status bar?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] AgroCPU:
when i want to type one letter it jumps back to the language setup -__-

and nope i cant enter settings
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mstreibe:
Did you try with german language? Try English(US). That's what I did. And do the inputs very slowly. When the input field appears, wait a sec or 2 before typing, and wait again between each character.

It's a pain I know, especially as it is for testing only. Maybe wait for the 1.0 release :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ccxex29:
i tried this.. well, very buggy due to initial release .. my steps are :

- Wipe everything needed.. use a kernel with 'Sony Xperia Sola' device name (not MT27i). Kitkat Kernels are fine..

- Install the ROM first.. then reboot the phone. wait for the Android upgrade/build cache

- After its done, reboot and flash the LP Gapps. Then reboot..

- Done.. (well.. my navbar is broken so.. i edited the build.prop via PC and voila.. :) ohh, i dont recommend you to use this rom for everday use..

Can this be done also in the android terminal emulator on the device itself, like

u0_a93@android:/ $ su

root@android:/ # echo "512,768,2880,4160,6080,10560" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree

Should this have the same effect?

Also, can you hardcode these minfree values into the ROM in a future release? Or can they be configured in build.prop or somewhere else like an init.d script?

on what carrier you are planing to use it? You cannot use sprint Galaxy note 4 on domestic GSM carriers like AT&T, T-mobile and their MVNOs (Straighttalk , etc).

1. No

2. Customers can switch devices by calling on a different phone to CS or going into store and switch devices, no unlocking necessary.

3. Just switch Sim cards and edit and tweak where necessary or pay someone if you dont know how.

4. Correct, but no unlocking necessary.

Yes yes yes it can be used with other carriers in the USA. Are people forgetting about flashing of modems and firmware. What decade are we in 1960? Our maybe 1950 when phone were still two way radios. Remember sprint can't stop everything Samsung does in making their phone. Ask the right questions to right people get right answer. If someone in XDA hasn't figured it out yet just wait & keep on looking. XDA is also not the only place to look for answers to everything Samsung, sometimes Samsung is were to look or Samsung blogs. All I hear is everyone that talks about Samsung first thing everyone says is it CAN'T be done. When are the tech, crackers, & hackers of this world going to stop saying everything is impossible & realize we are the ones that make everything possible. If we are going to do that why do we become techs or crackers or hackers or even developers in the every first place?.... LET'S STOP PUTTING LIMITS ON OU OURSELVES & SHOW SPRING WHAT WE CAN DO! Sprint is not GODZ. We created what sprint & Every carrier in the world uses to try to put limitations one everyone with. Are we going to let the carriers use or phones against us or are we going to use them the way the phone manufactures wanted the phones to be used ( without restrictions of the carriers of the world.)
