[Galaxy S II Android Development] koolkunz:
Great work...Hopefully we will get a fully working build soon :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sreinst1:
Amazing, thanks! Is this build based on Lysergic Acid's CM12 tree for the i9100? I didn't see him credited...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maniknarang:
No. This is based on the Slim Sources(device and kernel tree). Had it been based on CM12 sources, I would have surely given the credit to Lysergic Acid.

Would soon fix all the bugs to provide an awesome experience. :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sreinst1:
That's even more amazing! So now LP ROMs will be easier to build and maintain, given that there are two different device trees for the phone.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maniknarang:
Ya, so true. Firstly, I have to fix all the bugs, and then I have more plans to optimize this ROM and maybe build one-or-two more!:D

All the sources are free to use and available on my Git. Link in the OP!

Enjoy! :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Troubadour666:
thanksssssssssss :)

finaly boot [MENTION=5419355]warrior1208[/MENTION] ??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maniknarang:
Yeah. It is buttery smooth as I have cross built it with Linaro 4.8 toolchain. Would take some time to fix the bugs.

Stay tuned !:D

Great job man, keep up the good work!

Can't wait to use that ROM, but I can't use it before Bluetooth and Wifi are working.

I'm currently on Hazy (built by Sooti), which is an amazing ROM, AOSP-based (not CM). It's the only LP ROM that I found to have no issues, but I'm very much missing the pie control.

Let me know if I can help you get everything working. I'm a dev, but haven't really worked much on ROMs.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maniknarang:
Ya sure! I would contact you if I need any help to fix the bugs. Thanks a lot. :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] koolkunz:
NOTE TO ALL

Recovery doesnt work as of yet...If you remember we had the same bug when CM and Omni were newly released!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maniknarang:
Mentioned in OP. Thanks!

Trying to fix things up. Phewww:D

adaptive backlight and adaptive brightness

What is the difference between adaptive backlight and adaptive brightness?

It's great we can expect Slim Lolipop soon, Slim is my favorite Rom because lots of useful options.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Smitt80:
HELP!

Apolo beta 4 work?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maniknarang:
Adaptive Brightness optimizes brightness level for available light. Whereas, Adaptive Backlight dynamically adjusts the brightness of the display's backlight to maximize battery life while maintaining usability. :)

Yes, Apolo kernel works. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sreinst1:
I tried your SlimLP yesterday for a few minutes, until I saw that video playback does not work at all. Unfortunately, this is one of my common usages of the phone, so I replaced it by SlimSaber 4.4.4. SlimLP seems to be quite smooth, but I didn't keep it long enough to see if it suffers from these delays in app switching.

Can't wait to get a fully working version.

BTW... CM12 and all ROMs based on it have a problem with the Gallery when the phone language is Hebrew (a Right-to-Left language): Clicking something on the right opens the album on the left and vice versa. Same with thumbnails of images. Does SlimLP has the same problem?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Troubadour666:
Some ss with layers/overlay and my opinions about soft to manage them.

thanks.

Hello.

Some times ago, we (kindle fire 1st gen comunity)in first build of SlimLP had the same situation with Youtube playback. BUT our great Dev named [MENTION=4410674]lovejoy777[/MENTION] , quickly found a solution for this issue.

Dear OP, if You want , You could contact with him for tip, he's a really friendly guy :)

Regards my friends, i subscribed this thread from the beginning:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dr AM:
No I mean usb otg , to open usb flash directly with the device

Since lollipop it's not working for me :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hawaiisteve:
Hi all. Great to have slim lp for our device. [MENTION=5419355]warrior1208[/MENTION] if its any help, cm12 had the same video playback issue. MX player does work using SW decoder, but not HW. Hopefully you can use the same fix. Thanks for the great ROM!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bart.found:
Hi, any chance to go official? :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maniknarang:
Hey! I have applied for the Official DM.They'll give me a reply soon. And once we fix the video playback issues, we should have the Official status! :fingers-crossed:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pyvesb:
Good news! Good luck for your application! ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Twiq:
Great news man!! And a bold move i might add :p

I hope your request got approved.. It's been a while since we have a slimroms device maintainer for S2
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sreinst1:
That's great news! Waiting very much for the video playback fix.

However, is SlimLP officially out of alpha? The last news in the website doesn't indicate it (but it also doesn't contain a date so I don't know when it was written): http://www.slimroms.net/
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maniknarang:
This was written approximately 15 days ago. SlimRoms says that it'll add more devices as it moves on with the ROM updates. We will have to wait and watch. As of now, its servers are having some issues. The team is working to fix them, once they are fixed, we can expect more features in the ROM. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maniknarang:
Updates...

Okay guys, so, you know, umm, yep, Video Playback is ... yes you're right, is ... FIXED!!

Changelog:

Updated sources to CAF branch

Fixed Video Playback

Added few Camera HAL lines

New build would be uploaded very soon. Just fixing a few more things! :)

Thanks to [MENTION=4901061]mcgi5sr2[/MENTION]

[Galaxy S II Android Development] sreinst1:
Great!!! Thanks for your work.

Hi, dear warrior1208. How can i remove this ugly black square from the photo of caller in SlimKat - Build 9.1 ??? Thank you for ROM
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Crash200:
Hi, I wipe data, cache(factory reset), dalvik/art cache and system and flash this files but when i try to reboot my phone always crashes and reboot again and again. What am I doing wrong?

1)Slim-i9100-4.4.4.build.9.1-UNOFFICIAL-20160104-0852

2)open_gapps-arm-4.4-pico-20160322

3)ROOT-UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46

Later i tryied to wipe and flash first

Kernel_Dorimanx-V10.50v004-[10-31]-[06-02]-KK-SGII-GSSTUDIOS-LINARO-4.9-TRIM

or

Kernel_Dorimanx-V10.45v040-[13-04]-[21-11]-KK-SGII-GSSTUDIOS-TRIM

and later the rom,gapps and supersu. Βut after happened the same. Reboot and reboot...

Help please
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sirozan:
Try to flash the ROM, and then when it is always rebooting force the phone into recovery and just flash the ROM again. If this works, you can go to recovery again later and flash gapps
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Crash200:
I tryied it 2 times but the problem not solved. Reboot problem appears when i flash my contacts/sms with titanium. Backups created on 5.1.1 cyanogenmod . It crashes process.something
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Crash200:
android.process.acore has stopped appears and reboot continuously. The rom runs then i flash contacts and basic with titanium from 5.1.1 backups. This happened and with other 4.4 roms i tried. I will go back to 5.1.1 roms necessarily :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ultravy:
I get this when something has changed in new rom, when you do a dirty flash! Do a clean install: wipe data, cache, dalvik cache and system. flash rom, gaaps and reboot, wait to optimize. no need to flash super su, the rom has root, you only have to enable from developer settings. after reboot If you want dorimanx kernel go with this version as you posted : Kernel_Dorimanx-V10.50v004-[10-31]-[06-02]-KK-SGII-GSSTUDIOS-LINARO-4.9-TRIM

Again no need to flash su, dorimanx kernel will install super su app, only su binary need to update at startup
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Crash200:
Finally, i find the solution. I went back to 5.1.1 and make backups with Super Backup : SMS & Contacts and all work fine now. Titanium is not compatible to restore in 4.4.4 from 5.1.1 Only in contacts(green backups) happened this.

Thanks guys for your quick answers.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] JungleTowns:
Hello,

In order to download apps, what package of Gapps do you choose? I tried the normal variant, 4.4, from Slim. A lot of people choose the smaller packages - do these give you no way of downloading apps from Gplay, or is there another way?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ultravy:
Go to opengapps.org and go for the pico package. A lot of people choose the small package because they have a 500 mb system partition , so there isn't enough space for full gapps unless you repit your device.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MikiGry:
Is Slim"s 9.1 kernel patched up for Music bug ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
If you are talking about FPBug, then yes it is fixed
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedrocrv:
Hello!

I have tried to install this rom but at the end i only get android 4.4.4 and not the 5.1.1... I just restored my old slim rom..

Why is this happening?

Many thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
Probably, you are installing slimkat which is 4.4.4, not slimLP which is 5.1.1. Both are here
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedrocrv:
Where is the link to slimLP?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
In the 2nd post. Under slimkat
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedrocrv:
Many thanks! I just downloaded the first one, my mistake!

The 5.1.1 version is fully functional and stable right?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
Try it :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedrocrv:
Thanks! I will, i am now downloading it! Hope it works fine :)

It seems that Super SU failed to install. What is the solution now?

---------- Post added at 11:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 PM ----------

Friends,

Sadly, I have been forced to come back no my previous version.

My questions:

- I see that, when I install this ROM, my data (photos, files,...) stays on the phone. Why it didn't come full clean?

- When i try to install the GApps, it says that there is no space, despite i try the zero version. Why?

- Imagine that all my data (photos, files...) is cleared. If I restore a nandroid backup from recovery, I get all of my data back?

Many Many thanks!

Pedro
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
Hi,

Sorry for the late reply. Your files(pictures etc) reside in /data/media, which is only wiped when you format /sdcard0(internal sdcard). A normal factory reset/wipe data only wipes /data/data.

Gapps is installed to /system, alongside the rom. The S2 has a small /system partition, which can be a problem in later android versions when trying to install gapps, so it is recommended to re-partition to a bigger /system. Here is a good guide if you want to learn more. Here is another tool to re-pit

A nandroid will restore basically everything on your device to where you were when you backed up(rom,apps,pictures, music etc)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedrocrv:
Many thanks again!

So, as I understand, if I make a /system wipe, it should have enough space to put in GApps or not?

I think that my nandroid is less larger than my data as I see how much space it takes from my phone, is it normal?

Re-partition has some risks of damage the phone or it is risk free?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
It depends on the rom and the gapps package. I think if you use SlimLP and open gapps pico, should fit on stock /system. Basically every new android version is getting bigger, so less room for the gapps....

Not sure what you mean. Nandroid includes the rom and gapps(in /system) and data. Size is relative to what you have installed(apps are installed to /data from play store for example)

There is a small risk with everything we do. Read carefully and you should have no issues
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedrocrv:
Hello again,

I mean that, actually the folder from my last nandroid have, for example, 1.8gb size, and all my data (again photos, files,...) have for example, 2.5gb... Is this right?

---------- Post added at 08:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:35 PM ----------

It seems that i have installed it with success! But, Super SU gave an error during flash...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedrocrv:
After some time testing this ROM, some points:

- The camera app seems of less quality when compared to the one present in my previous rom (slimsaber 4.4..4), with much less definitions, and less photo quality;

-Super SU didnt intall, where can i find root acess?

-Layers manager didnt work, allways force stop

Despite this, Good work! Very smooth ROM!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedrocrv:
Hello friends!

I have a question, why my phone always reboot alone when charging? I see that every time the screen goes off, the phone reboots for itself...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tomtigerman:
Same thing here, it's a bug. let it reboots few times and after a while, it will go normally. But it's really really [emoji36] [emoji35]

[Galaxy S II Android Development] deniz7i:
After a day off flashing my ass of I accidently found it . It's in the developers options. Layers will work after root access.

This should be outlined somewhere. Especially because the supersu package mentioned in op seems not to want to be flashed correctly, atleast for me. something about failure to write to ramdisc.

ALSO: towards the end of the battery life car mode is rapidly activated and closed.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Saetta88:
Hello to all,

I would like to install the build of the 11/11/2015 and I would like to know:

1) I can install it even if I did not "enlarged" the /system partition?

2) you which recovery recommended to me to use for the installation?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tomtigerman:
You can flash the rom without repartitioning but you will can't install gapps cause of enough space. Someone can confirm?

So I suggest you to repartitioning following good tutorials on XDA.

You can use CWM or TWRP. Personally, I prefer TWRP. You could use the latest version 3.0.2.1.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Darmaa:
Sorry for my english. Is this compatibility in 500mb /system partition?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sirozan:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Abels2:
Make clean installation with:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] xdil:
the first file you linked must be flashed like a rom from recovery mode, right?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Abels2:
yes, its cleaner scripts make all wipes for new rom in order:

- GS2ROMWipe

- ROM

- Gapps

- Kernel
[Galaxy S II Android Development] xdil:
I done all wipes as you tell, but now the device doesn't start.... it's blocked at S2 window and does'nt work.

I can oepn recovery mode and download mode but not boot the OS.

I tryed to flash Slimkat rom again but it say error "This package is for device: S2 (and other models ndr)...... this device is smdkc210" .

Wrong firmware?

I don't know what I can do now..... :crying:

About rom suggestions, I understand these 2 you mentioned, are they stable to be daily driver?

A small OT, I got this i9100 to replace my phone that is on RMA...

I would like to root, put a recovery and then a custom rom, could you point me to an updated guide to do it?

I did it before with maguro and with N5X, but I read that i9100 is trickier expecially because of putting a recovery
