Summary of Findings

After using this ROM heavily over the past few days, I am very impressed with it overall.

Here is a summary of all of the issues I've found listed in order of importance

to me

:

(Most of these have been previously posted.)

1. Bluetooth crashes seemingly randomly. See attached error message. To fix it (temporarily), go to Menu > Settings > Apps > Bluetooth Share > Force Stop. Until this is done, you will not be able to turn Bluetooth back on. Of course, you could also reboot.

2. Signal randomly drops out completely at times even in areas that had excellent coverage with other ROMs like SlimKat.

3. Sometimes when I hit the hangup button on my bluetooth headset, the disconnect tone is played but the call is still connected. (Someone else also reported this behavior in another CM thread.)

4. Switching the camera back and forth to video mode a few times causes it to crash and requires a reboot to fix it.

5. Long-pressing the menu button on the home screen brings up an older Google Search screen instead of Google Now as it did before on all previous ROMs. (see attached) What's worst is this Google Search does NOT search apps or contacts even though those options are checked in Google Settings. As a temporary fix, since I'm using Nova Launcher, I changed the long-press menu button behavior to directly launch Google Now instead of "search".

6. App name and version number overlap in App Info screen. (see attached)

7. While on a call via the speakerphone, the audio volume cannot be controlled. Call is at max volume.

8. After I restored my apps, the first few seconds of a reboot always produces a black screen with blue scrambled letters. I believe this may be app related since I don't remember it happening before I restored my 200+ apps. Since the phone eventually boots, this is a very minor issue that I will keep an eye on. I plan to do another clean wipe today and slowly restore apps to see if that helps with any of the above issues.

9. I never knew how much I used the Recents menu until I used this ROM which doesn't have it working yet. :cyclops:

This ROM has incredible potential and GPS, SMS, and MMS seem to work perfectly! Due to using bluetooth for 99% of my phone calls, I'll probably restore my nandroid of SlimKat to use as my daily driver until many of the above issues have been addressed. I'll be keeping a very close eye on this thread for future releases. Again, you've done a phenomenal job, [MENTION=3639717]Perseus[/MENTION]. Thank you!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tdotdot:
Chainfire has an appy called 'recently' that can probably be mapped to the home button.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Ahh... nice find, my friend!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Ok, I have now tried ALL of the current CM12.1 ROMs. In my opinion, SlimLP has the most potential. I've decided to just go back to SlimKat until [MENTION=3639717]Perseus[/MENTION] releases the next update to SlimLP. There are so many things right with this ROM that the others are missing and will probably never add.

---------- Post added at 10:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:07 AM ----------

The other issue I forgot to mention previously with this ROM is when you attach a picture to a text message, it will be rotated 90 degrees.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Punkgambit:
For does who use nova launcher you can use the pinch out gesture by default for recent screen. Or you can map it to another gesture on nova settings.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
[MENTION=3639717]Perseus[/MENTION], I'm craving your next update to this ROM, my friend! :D
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
You'n me both. The latest iteration lost Earpiece. I can't hear any incoming call. Alpha or not, you guys won't take it nicely to that I suppose ? :p
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
True, very true! LoL
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
I need to Correct Myself. It turns out, MY DEVICE's Earpiece is busted. :rolleyes:So I am going to push a Build for you guys to test/ Please let me know what your experience is.:eek:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
I'm glad to hear it is your earpiece and not the update that is busted. :cyclops:

As you know, I will thoroughly test your new build. I can't wait!!! :good:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] excedium:
could someone show me the download link for the latest version of the rom? i checked the slimrom website but its not there and i didnt see it in the post. sorry if i missed the obvious!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Listed in OP as "My Unofficial Downloads" - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=25891
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
You got your Wish. Op Updated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Ahh... I know what I'll be doing this weekend! Thank you!!! :highfive:

[MENTION=3639717]Perseus[/MENTION], were you able to make any improvements to BlueTooth? I know they are still having problems with BT on the official CM nightlies.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] critikality:
the ROM is super stable however, waiting patiently for all the fixes.....thumbs up
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
Sorry, the fixes being tried out are flaky at best. Although I am trying on my own device, I am yet to make a determination about exposing it to you users.

Will you be kind enough to give more specifics ?

EDIT - Just for the ATT users, I am going to have another build later today. I need to have one change tested about LCD Density. With my own phone gone in for Replacement (see above), I can't test. I need you to report back if stuff goes belly-up about LCD Density.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] matrixzone:
Hardware button not working on the latest build. I am not able to move back to home screen from applications. Home button or back button does not work. I have to restart my phone for moving back to home screen
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
Thanks for letting me know. I will push another build with a change.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gvsukids:
Has the new one uploaded?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] m1batt1:
Downloaded before I saw this and can also say it is the same for me. Also on first boot at least the kernel splash screen is all weird. Hard to describe what it looks like but definitely not what I assume you're going for.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
Thanks I know what you mean. Thought I fixed it. Oh well.

ALL - New Build up. Its only for ATT for now. Please test for the hardware button issue and the LCD Density Changer. See if the settings stick after reboot when you change Density from Settings > Display.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Will do! Were you able to get the Recents Menu working in this build?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] VGMC0001:
Post 5/22 update

Just clean flashed 5/22 and it looks and feels great. Unfortunately for me, the menu, back and home buttons still aren't working though. :P

I can still get around using the NAV bar. So I was able to check the LCD density, it was set to 280 initially, I set it to 320, the phone rebooted automatically(as it should) it was still set to 320. I rebooted one more time and it was still at 320.

thanks for your hard work [MENTION=3639717]Perseus[/MENTION]
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jndrad:
Same here back button not work...thanks for all your effort
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
Thanks Guys. Appreciate the Prompt feedback! I am gone for the long weekend. But will make a fix for the button issue afterwards.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] joeyrivGIN:
Could you include the ability to disable hardware buttons? (Thanks)

---------- Post added at 09:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:31 PM ----------

It works with the nav bar
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Groot:
This rom is so good in its alpha stage. Cant believe my phone felt more snappier after installing this!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Exactly! I'm waiting for the hardware buttons fix before I flash the latest build.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
Back. Will make a new build.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Groot:
Welcome back mate! Btw iirc slimLP doesnt fully support RRO layers yet, no?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] critikality:
welcome and take your time, patiently waiting.......
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Scar.6ix:
Switching from Cm nightly to this

Hey so just to confirm. Want to switch from Cm nightly to this rom . Just have a couple questions?

-Is the stock Camera as stable as CM nightlies or does it work at all?

-Are the features like Slim dialer, recent, pie included in this rom. If not what features are included ?

-Is there anything else not working except the hardware keys ?

Sorry not sure if the info about what works and what doesnt in op is up to date or not.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Groot:
1. Camera is flawless as hell regardless of what app you use.

2. Those features aren't implemented yet, we'll just have to wait eagerly.

3. All is working well but hardware keys.

Overall, i really recommend this rom, still in alpha but IMO more stable than CM nightlies. What makes me say so? I've just switched from CM build 5/25 to slim yesterday and no random reboots or what, performance have been snappier in my end.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
1. Does switching between picture and video a few times still cause the camera to fail?

2. I thought I read the Recents Menu was working using the nav bar keys. Not so?

3. Has Bluetooth stability been improved? That was the main reason I had to switch from the previous build back to SlimKat.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] wrenhal:
I think that's because his base is older.

---------- Post added at 09:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 AM ----------

Also, replacing trebuchet as launcher always makes cm snappier.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
I made a test build last night. I will test and then push it.

Think RRO Compatibility is back. Can you test as of that borked build and let me know ? Otherwise wait till I fix the buttons.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] critikality:
RRO is running perfectly well in the unofficial 0.2 test build 22/05
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
Speaking of RRO, Funny Anecdote, If you read here, you'd see the special Slim Mention, ;) that's pointed at us on Qualcomm SoC with xxxx-CAF Branch. :D

(Galaxy S3 was on -CAF Branch in KK)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Groot:
Wooh excited for the new release! As of RRO in 5/22 build, it works well but dark themes destroy my settings..

Btw, how can i avoid duplicating songs? Shuttle and Phonograph are displaying duplicated songs.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Me too! I've flashed most of the CM12.1 roms and I like SlimLP most of all even though it has less features than some of the others at this point. If it were not for the Bluetooth issues of the 5/8 build, I'd still be using it as my daily driver. I make most of my calls via Bluetooth so that was a deal breaker for me. I pray the next build of SlimLP successfully resolves those issues!

I guess we'll wait and see...

Speaking of themeing, is there a way to make SlimLP look like SlimKat dark? I love the thin white boarder around black elements which gives it a nice elegant look.

EDIT: Found it! - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=bitsykolayers.trds
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Groot:
As of now, TRDS is still a WIP iirc, but it is supporting the RRO theming and there are plenty of black themes available out there.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Is RRO theming being used instead of the Theme Engine on this ROM or are they both supported?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Groot:
Nope, only RRO layers.

P.S.: be careful on using layers! Dark themed layers can cause your settings to have invisible texts, only icons. This is because SlimLP isnt "fully" supported yet. We'll just have to wait for Perseus to have an awesome update to tackle these issues. ???
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] critikality:
SlimRoms are built on AOSP and not CyanogenMod, hence no theme engine. But supports RRO Layers themeing built directly into Android 5 Lollipop by Google. So your answer is SlimLP supports only RRO not both.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Groot:
One more issue, when the screen is off i can't long press the volume keys to seek tracks. Instead, it wakes the device and and adjusts the volume. An option to "Seek music tracks while the screen is off using volume keys" would be amazing thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
UPDATE - Just Tested a D2ATT err D2GSM build on my D2TMO. Hardware keys are working as expected. I will push this build tonight to AFH. Will be making other devices' versions shortly thereafter.

As [MENTION=5320655]critikality[/MENTION] said, RRO yes CM Theme Engine =Never

Hardware Key Customization is coming. In the mean time, please see Settings > Sound & Notification > Advanced Options for a setting called "Media Control"
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] $avage$3:
Will this new build address Bluetooth issues as reported by sjamie?

Next question, do you support kernel changes, such as the new deathly?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
SlimLP + Deathly kernel sounds like it would be strong powerhouse combo!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
I keep checking the download folder in anticipation! :D
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Groot:
I hope that we will have a full RRO support in the next build so that I can finally use dark themes ???.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Yes, that would be awesome!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jndrad:
Looks like new build is up
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
After you guys give a Feedback on the latest build, I will look into what's ailing RRO.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Well, I know what I'm doing this weekend. YAY!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tdotdot:
Not sure what's going on but some apps in my google play store are reporting not compatible. Why would this be? It works with every other ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jndrad:
will slim center and rest of slim features be incorporated in SlimLP?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] critikality:
OK flashed latest build a couple of hours ago and here are my findings so far:

1. hardware keys are working now[emoji1] though

needs extra settings example: illumination

2. Advanced toggles of Data and Location

quick setting tiles broken

Apart from the above so far, the ROM is rocking solid and very smooth. Looking to other Slim features.......good work done
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
Yes they would be. Right around the time Officials start coming.

Honestly I haven't flashed latest build myself. I will take a look over the weekend.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Groot:
Latest build all good! Volume rocker options are missing though like the "seek music tracks when scrern off". Dark rro themes still give me a " white" settings so cant use it yet. A very good release excluding those issues so far! Oh and I noticed that performance improved, lesser graphical glitch in HD games! Thanks perseus!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Media Keys

..
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] $avage$3:
have dl's been removed?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=31178
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] $avage$3:
Thank you sir, seems like the folders were empty earlier
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
You're welcome. I'm hoping to commence my testing very soon!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] $avage$3:
no themes or RRO? or next build? so far everything else seems good
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
How is Bluetooth working for you? I should be flashing this within a few hours...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] $avage$3:
honestly, I only flashed long enough to test a new kernel. I kind of raced through all of it ,sorry
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jndrad:
Bluetooth works perfectly for me
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] $avage$3:
just in case sjamie doesn't get back to this, he is probably going to want to know about Bluetooth share fc's ,connection speed, disconnection/re-connection speed,and how long you actually stayed connected without issues, and what device did you use to try the Bluetooth. His concern will be for a Bluetooth earpiece.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Thank you!

What are you using for your daily driver?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] $avage$3:
I actually have 2 go-to-Roms, old Validus13 4.4.2 and CyanideL. Im seeing that most of the newer updated Roms are all pretty close in the running. My thing is I want a Battery bar above the status bar and Cyanide is one of them that has it. I am now seeing that Xposed is working quite well with Xblast , so with Geeky being gone neither one of my go to's are going to be updated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
You must have caught me emptying the folders. I deleted the prior build as it had issues. Otherwise I move them to the Old Builds Folder.

RRO should be working fine. You have to get the apps and Overlays all by yourself. ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] $avage$3:
Hmmm, looks like I may not have given SlimLP the chance it deserves, gonna have to re flash and check it out.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
[MENTION=3639717]Perseus[/MENTION], did you get long press back to kill to work in this build?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] critikality:
it works perfectly, go to setting and enable hardware buttons then u can set the action of long press of the back soft key to kill apps
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Yep, it works very well. Thanks, [MENTION=3639717]Perseus[/MENTION]!

Is it possible to add groups to the contacts app? (See Matrixzone's latest CM 12.1 build)

I've been playing with the interruptions settings. Is there a way to automatically turn off the notification led at night?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
I'm getting some pretty bad battery drain... will test further...

Switching from the rear camera to the front camera a few times can crash the camera.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
Can take a look. But don't hold your breath. We don't always pick each feature.

Yes know about Camera. I traced it to the blobs (AKA LP Drivers). You know my Stand about Battery Claims.:cowboy:

EDIT - For those Clamouring for RRO Stuff. Try the Build up. Appreciate quick feedback.

For those who don't care, you have SlimPie in there. (Yes you're welcome. :D ) On a trivial note, you can now unlink Ringer Volume and Notification Volume.

Someone tell me if you see a Quick Sound Mode Tile for QuickSettings in this build.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Groot:
Wooh! SlimPie! Downloading now thanks perseus!

---------- Post added at 11:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:37 AM ----------

Uhm, is the new build not up yet?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
Oops. I set the upload last night. It didn't go through. check now.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] $avage$3:
Perseus, Booting now, will respond shortly

---------- Post added at 07:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:14 AM ----------

Quick sound mode tile is missing and no option to add it either,Checking Layers next...

---------- Post added at 08:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:43 AM ----------

TBO bootanimation zip works awesome, TBO Clear Gapps works,found a status bar layer that failed to install, (probably the layer chosen is not compatible) So layers is a go

I am not promoting TBO (Team Black out), I personally LIKE it, but it is only mentioned due to it being the first Layer I came accross.

Forgot to mention, but it has already been addressed, Layers Manager has to be installed by user links are here for play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lovejoy777.rroandlayersmanager
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Groot:
Can you apply a dark layer and check if settings will be overlaid? Can't Download the rom for now.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] $avage$3:
Any Layer in particular or just any?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Groot:
Try installing the TRDS layer and the PS navbar from the PS layer.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] $avage$3:
That was thew firs time ever using Layers, and I am digging it. But Both the TRDS and the PS navbar have installed and working, I can see the PS navbar, but I don't know what to look for on the TRDS, they both say active in layers manager though
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Groot:
Have you rebooted? If so, does the settings' background changed from light to dark? And does the navbar glows?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] $avage$3:
checked each one individually, installed chosen layer,rebooted, Navbar is the same, no color, no glow, settings background is white as if not themed
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Groot:
Weird... Thanks man! But have you applied other layers except from the ones above? How did it turned out?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] $avage$3:
yes, actually, I tried a couple more..I just restored to BrokenOS and Layers are working there for sure. Im having a hard time only applying certain layers and removing others. As soon as I delete all of the layers, Ill try to apply these two
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Groot:
I'm also in BrokenOS currently but I miss Slim's simplicity and SlimPie of course. One thing that's bugging me is the RRO. I'm sure Perseus have been working hard for this. I'll download this later and we'll see if I can reproduce your current results. Thanks man!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
I'll be honest. I really have no use for RRO myself. I understand what you want and why you use it though. So honestly I'd have to be the simple messenger between you guys and core devs on this one. So please provide specific feedback that I can take back.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Groot:
Perseus the latest release gave me my longest battery life ever. Can't believe i can play assassins creed pirates for 1hr and 20mins and from 100% the battery drained to just 64%! This is awesome! And thanks for the slimpie, eliminated the use of hardware keys for me. Overall great release. Can't wait for slim to integrate the missing features.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
So far, I've had the best overall user experience on this ROM even though it lacks many Slim features. I'm really looking forward to testing the next build!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MetalHead66:
I just installed it on my S3 and so far I'm extremely impressed. May go back to using the S3 for a week or so to test it out.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
List them please. Will look into it. As of now, I am integrating Slim's take on CMHW. Once done, I can look into it.
