[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaleg:
I did not say that... as you can see from my signature, we are using slimkat r2

fc became more rare but still present

the community would appreciate your thoughts about 5.1 after you use it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bernardblack76:
yep i will try;) thx... i have to replace my camera hardware, i got strange circle ghost in the lens;) and then will be more playing with the slim roms

edit: i found 1 annoying thing on this r2, when player mp3 is on, and i go screen off i hear a liitle pause on the music, click hmm
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theBlackEnd:
Hey guys, new SlimLP build is up.

Changelog:

SlimRecents, Blacklist and Expanded Desktop are back;

Cursor buttons in navigation bar while typing are back too (Settings -> Navigation);

Fix to camera crashing while taking videos with WhatsApp\Snapchat\... built in camera app;

Fix mic mute during call (thanks to [MENTION=3390093]MWisBest[/MENTION]);

Bootanimation is now smooth;

Synced with SlimROMs repos (alpha 0.4);

I've been using 5.1 for more than a month now. I can confirm it's pretty stable (0 reboots or freezes in the whole month) and usable as daily driver.

If you face any issue all you probably need is just a clean flash.

Oh, OP has been updated too, give it a look.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bernardblack76:
I'm blind:) i will try this tonight
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] grh35:
Have you been using with custom kernel or stock kernel of SlimLP?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaleg:
Do you use it in f2fs?

If yes, I know that only cache partitions should be on f2fs, could you confirm?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eternal70:
What xposed version should we used ? The one in the xposed thread or we should waiting for your builds ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mangusZen:
How is the camera? Crash or working?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] girkev:
Great.great work!!!!

I tried all of them.

After photo i'm seying a artefact but photo is ok

I personaly want another key in status bar when expands a 2gt/3g switch;)

This LP is really nice, i'll test more

ooo and deep sleep working
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theBlackEnd:
Stock kernel, ofc.

I'm still on ext4, but I added f2fs support in 5.0. Check FAQs in #1 post.

I've been using romracer's 05/14 build for a while now.

It's working fine. Check OP for known issues.

There's still a purple line in the PREVIEW and in recorded videos. It's barely noticeable, but yeah, it's still there. I think this is common to all LP ROMs, or I missed one of Ziyan's (or zzpianoman) fixes otherwise.

Deep sleep has been working for ages :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bernardblack76:
I got FC google service after uninstalling some expendable apps from system:(

Hope that helps ! Oh yes, that's a clean flash
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaleg:
Probabily the best LP rom so far!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rohitchouhan07:
only one thing i am concerned about is the lag in recents app and a general ui shuttering which was present in all lp roms in early stages but are fixed now..........................................thr last slimlp build had those lags but is it fic=xed in this one ......please give a look to it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mangusZen:
Just installed this, with exposed and gravitybox. Its very nice and decently fast.

Thank you very much for compiling this for our maguro
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Younex:
How comes there's no Device Control Widget ? Am I missing something ?

Haven't been much on SlimROMs in the past...

Besides everything is great, I appreciate the fact that my Gnex now works smoothly without overheating :)

Also I noticed that the Volume Rocker Wake makes sound... it's kinda annoying since I use it alot but I can live with that ^^

Edit: it affects media volume, too
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pavlo1c:
hm, root not work :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Younex:
Enable it in developers options
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaleg:
Go slim!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mangusZen:
Ohhh rro layers are working, so nice :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pavlo1c:
not work, else:

Once again, through a Nexus Root Toolkit established by Root and it worked.

However, the system is started each time a long time and lag and choppy :(

It does not work smoothly and slowly!

I can make video about it if need.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rohitchouhan07:
I am a slim fan but the only thing I m concerned about is the recemts lag and the general ui lag as compared to zmaod......the overall ui is lagging ......animations especially.....BTW I m on f2fs please fix it asap I m dying to use this ROM
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jamstruth:
Just installed the latest SlimLP ROM and it seems to be stuck in RealDark Material theme with no option to disable it. Its messing up things a lot (e.g. I can't see menu items in Chrome)

Edit: Should've tried reinstalling first. Some data from my backup had messed it up. Blech feel like an idiot now.

Trying out SlimLP under F2FS. Seems snappy for the moment though how much of that is just the data clearout my phone had been sorely needing I can't say. Nice that the Camera isn't always crashing now too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fire_kid2003:
Can you provide an alternative DL link

this one keeps freezing around 70%
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaleg:
It did the same to me, I used ccleaner and rebooted. After that, it worked!

BTW, [MENTION=2736751]fire_kid2003[/MENTION], this is the new LINK

I hope it helped ^^
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Younex:
It's because of the Slim gapps I think... It happens when I switch from a ROM that supports TRDS to another which doesn't.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaleg:
This latest slimLP rocks, stable and no force close so far... :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] uin.bytes:
I have problems with the headset, when disconnecting the phone still shows that the headphones are connected.

overheating

I'm having this issue no matter what kernel or rom i use for 5.1 on my galaxy nexus, it overheats up to 44 degrees Celsius and the battery drops like a rock. is anybody else getting this issue? and how can i fix it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mangusZen:
You messed up, a clean flash will fix it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mangusZen:
Bump :D any news here? :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kinleyd:
Great ROM. It's been working really well for me. I think I will let it ride my Galaxy Nexus to the end of its days. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Younex:
some advices :)

Do :

- use app hibernating (Greenify, Servicely)

- replace some apps with lighter alternatives

- undervolt if you can (slightly, and stay safe)

- disable stats sending everywhere

Avoid :

- having lots of GMS apps, instant messaging, Push notifications apps, background services...

- using cellular datas all the time (switch to 2G only)

- overclock

- keeping unneeded features (GPS high accuracy, Cloud Print, autosync)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
Thanks [MENTION=5990744]Younex[/MENTION] for your nice tips. I've tried this SlimLP and It heats up a lot...

Also, a fstrim from time to time is always handy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Djalaal:
Thanks for the port. I've always liked Slimrom. One of my favs before KK. Happy to get it on 5.1 now too (SlimLP 5.0 was no option for me).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
Just wanted to say thanks to [MENTION=5773568]theBlackEnd[/MENTION], [MENTION=4608636]bsmitty83[/MENTION] and all the people giving advices to improve the user experience :).

I'm using slimlp zero gapps and full_auto r21.1. The rom works great and no problem with GMS.

Edit: Happier every day!. I've disabled a lot of unused Google Play Services following a guide. Device is also running happy and does not overheat too much. Battery life is pretty fair.

Whatsapp is a battery hog!, constantly waking up the device (alarms), so I've decided to hibernate it with Greenify... yeah! xD
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mangusZen:
Can you link the guide for disabling google services?

---------- Post added at 09:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:27 PM ----------

Just to report: I made some videos with the default camera, and while I can see them on the phone, they are screwed when sent to someone with whatssup.

I installed google camera and seems to work better even if green stripes are still present

Cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
Sure, here you have:

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/general/disabling-google-play-services-guide-t2999821

Yeah, it would be cool if video recording were fully fixed. I'm sure devs will do it =)

Edit: hi, I'm in a hurry. Please I need advice, [MENTION=3938273]mangusZen[/MENTION], [MENTION=5773568]theBlackEnd[/MENTION] or whoever reads this: this afternoon I assist to a performance done by my daughter and I need to record videos properly (I'm not talking about getting it fixed). I'm thinking about restoring a JB/KK rom and after the performance restore LP. I'm trying other video recording camera apps like Open Camera and LG Camera, but the green/purple lines at te right edge are always showing. Thanks!!.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ivanlaszik:
I installed this OS today on my Gnex. I am a huge Slim fan and been using SlimKat since it appeared and SlimBean before that. I cannot say its fast, actually its quite laggy, especially when returning to the homescreen from an app or from the OS settings. But thats not important for me, I will get used to it or maybe it will get better in time. Anyway, I really like LP, never had a chance to touch it till now. However I am missing some stuff and wanna ask if they will be implemented in the future or not. These would be the sound tile in the quick settings (to change between mute or vibrate or loud, as in the power button menu), quiet hours (I believe "Interruptions" is the alternative to this but its fudging complicated), customization of the power button menu, customization of the notification light on a per app basis and of course TRDS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mangusZen:
Install xposed and gravitybox for costumizations, works fine.

Then choose a black or dark layers theme on playstore together with layers manager
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Younex:
I use Power Toggle, Layers themes (Inversion, Outerspace, Grey, TRDS...there's also Thyrus's one I forgot the name) and this app : Material Power Menu

TRDS is not ready yet (official Slim)

I am having battery drain issues with Google Play Services. Any clue about this ? Everywhere I read, just complaints, no solutions.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
Go to:

Security.

Privacy guard.

Show system apps.

Advanced.

Google Play Services.

Deny: wake up, keep awake and autostart.

Thanks in Advance
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ivanlaszik:
I have disabled "wake up on charge" and still device display turns on eveytime I (un)plug the phone. This known ? I have switched the setting several times, rebooted, still, display turns on.

.... and btw: sergialess' suggestion did not do much, Google Play Services still appears as highes battery user.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
Yeah, welcome to the G.P.S. nightmare. I've tried every single solution to get rid of wakelocks and battery drain without freezing, hibernating or uninstalling it:

- Privacy Guard

- Amplify

- Servicely

- Wakelock Terminator

- Autostats, DisableServices, Autoruns Manager...

- Deep Sleep Battery Saver

- PowerNap

- Etc.

I've been forced to search for a rom without G.P.S. issues. I'm sorry if it didn't work for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] girkev:
Fastest way is to unzip the ROM. In the folder you'll find a file named boot.IMG.

That's it.

Guys, I'm not getting any boot after a clean flash. Do I really need to use SlimGapps? I can't access the link so I downloaded TK's pico gapps...

EDIT: Forget about it, it was the kernel... Looks like I can't use bsmitty's kernel with this one, is that true for everybody?

I can disable wake up on charge with success and, no, I don't have any high battery usage by Google Play Services... I wonder why you guys are experiencing all these troubles with it

bsmitty's was working fine last time I checked, are you sure you got 5.x version?

I've updated gapps link in OP. SlimROMs build server has been taken down, donation money weren't enough to keep it, I guess (?)

---------

New build is up. There haven't been many changes since last one, just fixes and a few new features:

- Fixed sound when waking the device through Volume keys;

- Dialer vibration is back (vibrate when call is answered, etc)

- Bump to Beta 0.3 (based on Android 5.1.1 r9);

- Various fixes and translations updates (check Gerrit for more);

- LiveDisplay (not working yet here, lol)

[MENTION=5773568]theBlackEnd[/MENTION],

Bro, A standby test (not touching the phone almost at all, just checking the clock from time to time) will get me ~2 days battery with 3g on all the time, but absolutly no sync active. The battery usage page shows the Play Services always on top, looks like this:

In the current cycle phone was charged to 100% and removed from charger on Aug 8 @ 8:30 AM, was then used as navigation and removed from car charging Aug 8 @ ~8 PM. Battery was at ~70%. Phone was also restarted Aug 8 @ ~5 PM because of loosing data connection (issue explained later in this post). So the Google Services always appears on top and the Mobile Radio active has always a long time.

Because I kinda had the same battery life on SlimKat it does not bother me. However, when I use the phone, battery declines fast and using the webbrowser (default one, not chrome) is a pain, its like using a very old PC on todays websites.

I have a bug that reeeally messes everything up. After some time, I observerd after 4-5 days since boot the data connection simply does not exist anymore. The connection type icon (3g, h, h+) from the signal icon disappears and the exclamation mark (!) appears on the right side of the icon. This happened even while not using the phone, while it was just sitting on my desk, I picked it up to search for something and noticed it. I tried to reenable data, activate - deactivated airplane mode, reselect operator but no luck. Only a reboot brings data back. This is a serious pain. I have to reboot because of this now and then. This also happenes while ending a call. Never happened with SlimKat. Any ideas ? Also, when data disappears the data usage page is also empty, the entire data usage history. After reboot the list is back, as is the data connection. I also left the phone in this state an entire day, to see if it comes back but it didn't. Reboot fixed it.

Cheers.

Ivan.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ALBIEL:
Last build clean install and play services stopped ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theBlackEnd:
Thanks for the report.

I've been trying for a week to take a logcat of this issue, but EVERY time it occurs I'm out\doing stuff and reboot the phone.

I usually don't notice it since I'm using Ethernet over USB when I'm home or reboot often to test things :|

I'd really appreciate if anybody could dump (and attach lol) a logcat (and a dmesg (kmsg)) of this issue.

PS: FireFox is running pretty well here, give it a shot. I've never used stock browser, though.

Yep, some apps (PushBullet, Keep, ...) were crashing with last build. My bad. I've already uploaded a newer build to fix this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ALBIEL:

Hi [MENTION=5773568]theBlackEnd[/MENTION], what do you think about doing a lowram build?. Ziyan has done it for CM12, although it is not free of problems. Do you think it would be worth?. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mischasworld:
Hello,

I got a problem with your new build. I flashed it via sideload. After I reboot the phoine accepts my encryption password but tells me the data is corrupt and I should do a factroy reset. May flashing the previous build (26/6) be a solution?

Just avoid installing new Play Services from ApK Mirror... I fully disable localization on my phones + denied permissions for wake and keep awake etc..

Works well here (had some data connection issues in a earlier build). Only thing for me seems to be the camera (as others have said).

Keep up the good work Blackend, the rom is nice.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Younex:
EDIT

Seems that the previous Lucky K has some CPU boost that caused these problems, a new 2.7 build is available and should solve them.

[MENTION=4750792]phaleg[/MENTION]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaleg:
OK, then i wait on this... I'm on 26-06 for now. Flashing and then put back the backup I've seen has a stressing effect on our nexus... Furthermore, it's my wife's phone, lol

Lmk if you have any news after a clean install
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaleg:
How many other users are experiencing the problems that [MENTION=5990744]Younex[/MENTION] told about?

(camera and flashlight)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaleg:
So should I flash this special kernel right after the rom in a dirty flash to avoid those problems?

Is a dirty flash enough?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Younex:
Yes, it is enough (by dirty flash I mean wipe dalvik and cache)

Also Lucky K is not necessarily for the camera to work, but if you want to use that custom kernel, go with the 2.7 build it works fine.

Otherwise you may just flash the new room build :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaleg:
I dirty flashed this rom for my wife on Sunday. After few days of use that is the report:

No custom kernel

No issues (including camera and torch, they work pretty good)

Boot time same as my Note 3

2 days with battery

It is nice to see that Gnex still has development. I thought to sell mine, since I'm now with LG G3, but I'll keep it because of the great scene :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaleg:
All Nexus have a great community and support... My wife still uses Nexus, I made a big mistake to sell mine to get a Note3 instead of another Nexus :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diogofd8:
Well, I'm buying a Note 3 this week so your comment made me afraid right now xd

The dear GN will be resting home but still used by my dad and sometimes me to flash these excelent roms!

Good job! I'm testing this one right now (CM12.1 and Zmod previously and also great!).

Very smooth with nova launcher 3.3
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
No doubt that Gnex is a funny phone. More time tweaking/fixing than enjoying it (unless you find enjoyable tweaking and fixing), especially now with gapps giving a lot of headache.

Note3 is a beast as well as Note4. Get the second if you have a good chance. I'm regretting about getting the G3 instead of the Note.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaleg:
About support, community and development:

Nexus >> Samsung > LG or other brands

After so many years, I found more support around for Nexus than for Note 3 (model N900W8) and again, that brings another factor up, Nexus devices work everywhere with many different frequencies in the same device.

Samsung instead, to boost its income, creates more devices, with frequencies according to the country, carrier and network. I had to buy my model because was able to work in Canada with wind and in Europe, but that model has less support and so.

Samsung was able to create a Nexus (maguro) capable to work everywhere in the world in 2011, why didn't they create the same when they created Note 3 or 4?

Now I understand I am going around 50% offtopic, lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diogofd8:
Our maguro is still the greatest device samsung made for its time!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
I was thinking about selling mine, but in the second market its price is probably ridiculous. So now I'm just curious about how long the scene is going to be alive.

At the end... I enjoy tweaking and fixing xDDD.

Edit: [MENTION=4750792]phaleg[/MENTION], look at the Galaxy S2. A week ago my wife still was using it. If you go to the XDA forum, you can see devs compiling LP 5.1.1 like Resurection Remix, working very nice in such an old device. For the Gnex we have some LP roms, but hey, S2 is performing even better! :PPP
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaleg:
I see it, but don't forget that people may compile easier starting from google nexus sources for devices like Nexus (porting) and in the end of the day, the result is usually better or at least earlier available to Nexus than to others.

(I understand your point about S2, that's why Samsung was coming before the other brands in my previous post.. Newer samsung devices do not apply at the same level though
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
Sorry again for the OT, but I've just flashed RR 5.5.5 (LP 5.1.1) in my wife's S2 and it is awesome how this little guy is handing the OS (way snappier than GNex, I assure). As the device has physical buttons, you can hide the navigation bar and assign functions to the HW buttons. It is just nice!.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phaleg:
I am planning to flash Build 09/13 next weekend...

did anybody try it yet?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
Not yet. I've flashed latest ZMoD and now I'm also planning to flash latest SlimLP. I remember previous versions were workingn nicely =)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nikodr:
I assume this s2 has a working 3.4 kernel. Maguro does not have a 3.4 yet. So 3.0.x is not optimised for lollipop. But our developers have backported lots of stuff from the 3.4 kernel to 3.0.x.

If we had a 3.4 kernel maguro would be very fast.
