Congrats Flinny this is awesome. I saw it in the alpha area under the M8 on the SlimRom webpage. I'm downloading now and can't wait to flash and test. Sweetness!
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Flinny:
I've actually been running this as my Daily for the last 5 days... the idea being I'd be able to hammer on m9 till it worked... but I've not had much time yet :D
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Ap3xGam3r:
Going to test it now! Thank you for this rom! I couldn't use cm 14.1 because of a canadian sim card bootloop issue, hopefully this rom doesn't have the same problem

---------- Post added at 05:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:42 PM ----------

Well unfortunately upon booting up with this rom, right when my sim card is recognized, the phone reboots and then goes into a boot loop (much like in cm14.1). Only way to stop this is to pull out my sim card from my phone. My logcat is here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzKUEuxMtLAweGpxbzNMRzBFVTQ/view?usp=sharing
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Flinny:
What was the last version of CM/Slim you had running correctly with that sim?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Ap3xGam3r:
Well for CM, any cm13 builds worked for my phone, but right when cm 14.1 arrived, none of them worked at all.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Flinny:
So CM13 used to work but now doesn't? Or do you mean CM 14.1 has never worked and CM13 builds still work?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Ap3xGam3r:
Oh my bad, I meant that cm 14.1 never worked and cm 13 always does
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Flinny:
E PhoneInterfaceManager: [PhoneIntfMgr] getIccId: No UICC

Is the error that is jumping out at me but a radio log might shed more light on the problem. If you can logcat -b radio and message me the link personally I'll take a look.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Ap3xGam3r:
Does it matter if I type that with my sim card out of the phone? Since my phone will bootloop with the sim inside. Unless you want me to type that in adb right when it bootloops like what I did with the logcat I linked you?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Flinny:
I'd need it with the sim in to see what the problem is.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Ap3xGam3r:
Here it is: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzKUEuxMtLAwbklXaVduRE02dDQ/view?usp=sharing

Hope it helps more
[One (M8) Original Android Development] dseries60:
Thanks Slim Rom and most importantly Flinny for bringing N7 to our M8!

---------- Post added at 10:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:15 PM ----------

Only thing I have noticed is setting the back button (long press) to kill app doesn't work. Workaround.. Added additional button to kill app. Thanks Slim for the best rom available for Android!
[One (M8) Original Android Development] kannan1423:
to anyone using this rom, is the home button animation on this rom from the pixel? and is there the pixel blue ui on it?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] kannan1423:
actually if you guys go to settings>navigation bar settings and try to change the color slimSettings crashes . is there some way i could remove the weird white highlight when i press the nav bar?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Tolak:
I found three bugs:

1. stock gallery doesnt remove photos saved on sd card. I mean, it look like did but after reboot photos back. Optional gallery apps works fine.

2. Problem with sound on headphones. When I listen music and sound interrupt with another sound like notificatnion, keyboard sound etc. weird thing happend to sound level (going lover or higher). In silence or vibrations nothing happen.

3. Hot spot via Wi-Fi doesnt work.

Can you be kind and give me a link to the msm8974-common source code for Slim 7 ? I can't find it on Slim's Github.

[One (M8) Original Android Development] Eurofighter_ty:
I was so dumb :( ... Thanks!
[One (M8) Original Android Development] :
Can anyone send screenshots of this ROM..?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] anttaz:
Not too buggy thanks
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Leon:
I belive there's not much visual changes.You can look at the first post.This is clouse to stock expirience, it's made to be faster than any other rom I belive, a lot of stuff are removed that's why is called "Slim".Wtih some costumizations by slim team.Here is something that I found in youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZN9T_ZnL98I its not from our phone but you can see for what is about.

The title says testing , so you should expect bugs and slow down some times, but we should respect devs work.Give him litte time, this one is from the fasters rom for M8.Clean and fast.Need to be a litte patience.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] dseries60:
Great job slim team. Only issue I have encountered is there is no "accept or reject" option on incoming calls. You have to drag down the notification bar to accept or decline call. Keep up the great work.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] ainaz:
Hi I want to know, which one is better between CmRom and SlimRom? then what is the difference
[One (M8) Original Android Development] anttaz:
Slim is cm rom based with extra cool features added in
[One (M8) Original Android Development] ainaz:
So, slimrom is the best than cmRom !
[One (M8) Original Android Development] anttaz:
Personal user choice. But slim has more customisation and things available to user
[One (M8) Original Android Development] ainaz:
OK, I will try to install

Btw thank's for answer :)
[One (M8) Original Android Development] sk4ze:
Hey!

Did you try setting the Phone app as the default one for calls?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] old.splatterhand:
[MENTION=4350964]Flinny[/MENTION]

On 0.4 build:

- longpress back to kill foreground app (still) don't work (does nothing)

- can't find an option to enable root

- changing the glowing color of navbar buttons gives a fc (sorry, i missed to grab a log)

- i would wish it had outgoing/incoming network traffic in status bar

Other than that it seems very nice and promising for future builds.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] dseries60:
Very nice update, thanks Slim team. The dialer /phone /call log issue is fixed. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to the Slim team! Stay Slim ☺️ M8
[One (M8) Original Android Development] long1989:
Support for htc butterfly 2 thanks !
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Flinny:
We only support devices one of us actually has....
[One (M8) Original Android Development] dseries60:
Please don't get rid of your M8! Thanks Slim team!
[One (M8) Original Android Development] old.splatterhand:
[MENTION=4350964]Flinny[/MENTION]

I quote myself for build 0.5, now with logcat for fc.

Longpress back to kill foreground app also still don't work. It simply does nothing.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] akaTRAP:
I guess it's safe to assume this doesn't support us Sprint users?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Flinny:
The m8 builds in theory are unified so should work, although obviously I can't test the sprint compatibility of it. I assume others have tried/are using it though? Anyone?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] _moelle:
what about adding substratum commits? any plans of doing this?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] tigger69:
I'm on slim6 ATM, looking forward to trying this. I like these as I don't like all the crap in some of the other ROMs.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] RealEmo:
Can i use slim 7 in verizone m8? Sr for noob question.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] dseries60:
Verizon is GSM, as far as I know the M8 is a unified build and should work fine on any GSM network.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] HypostaticOnion:
Verizon is most definitely not GSM. It's CDMA like Sprint. If this is anything like the other N-based ROMs, it'll likely suffer from signal weirdness. At least mine all have. I mean it'll work, but might cut in and out and say no service even when you're connected
[One (M8) Original Android Development] SilverJS:
Any progress on finding the root cause of the Canadian sim bootloop issue? The was some earnest discussion about this in the first page of the thread but it died off. I just tried the 0.5 build, and problem persists. Too bad - played around with the ROM (without sim card!) - looks real nice and snappy! Keep up the good work, and thanks!
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Flinny:
The festive season, then a succession of trips and family birthdays has taken all my time these past few weeks. I'm even running a build from a few weeks ago with broken camera on my m9 right now ;)
[One (M8) Original Android Development] SilverJS:
Totally understood, good sir. :). I was rather encouraged because you seem to be the only one that was actively looking into it. In any case, thanks for all your work, I'm sure it'll get sorted out at some point.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] TunedFish:
How do I activate root on this rom? Do I need to root it or is the root option hidden somewhere?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] old.splatterhand:
Have not found myself an option to root. Don't know, if its meant that way, but i flashed SuperSu to get root.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] engelhro:
I've switched to Slim6 a few days before, and there the root option is available in the developer options... I'd assume the same applies to Slim7?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] old.splatterhand:
Of course i had a look there too ;)
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Mezot:
Been waiting for a nice slimrom for a while now. Will DL and give it a try.

Thanks :)
[One (M8) Original Android Development] KevYoshi:
Is there a way to get AudioFX to work?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] modhvadia98:
S off

Do I need s off to flash this rom?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Eurofighter_ty:
No, you don't.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] modhvadia98:
Thanks! appreciate the quick reply :D Guess i'll flash it then!

[One (M8) Original Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
i believe you need a nougat kernel to boot up the rom not porting marshmallow kernel to nougat rom

it worked on Slim6 because both kernels are meant to marshmallow

if i'm mistaken please correct me

Navigation bar icon problem

I'm glad to be back with Slim rom. Installed latest weekly 0.8-BETA-20170102-1635 yesterday and it seems to run fine (as usual with slim :) ) except the following problem:

Usually I add two buttons to navbar: one for phone application is the leftmost one, another for google chrome app is the last one to the right. So I have 5 buttons and only the last button does not display its icon properly after reboot. I have tried to set it both to default and to System icons->browser one. It shows correctly when you set it. After reboot if you check setting you'll find that correct icon is remembered but round circle with slash inside is displayed in navbar.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] masantula:
I know to some this might be an annoying question but before i move from slip 6 to slim 7 i wanted to know if the following are working on this Beta version:

1. GPRS

2. Normal phone calls

3. Data working

4. Bluetooth pairing

5. Camera

Because these are the things i use the most so if this is still buggy i might as well wait a bit and get something more stable.

Thank you in advance.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] MrWBucket:
I'm currently on Slim 7, and I've had no issues with GPS, phone, data, Bluetooth, or the camera. While GPS works fine, all of the nougat roms I've used have stated that AGPS doesn't work.

I currently have four bluetooth devices paired to my phone, and the Google camera seems to work fine. Wifi is also good.

I have tried four or five different nougat roms in addition to Slim 7. The battery life seems better on Slim 7, and it has been very stable and responsive.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] masantula:
Appreciate this feedback, seems like its time to take the big Jump :)
[One (M8) Original Android Development] magiciso:
Before slimrom i use stock, cell reception is great with full bar everywhere i go. But the latest slimrom only give me third to half reception :(, draining my battery quite alot

Does having a different kernel cause it(using team M8's kernel now)?Is there anything i can tweak to make it better?

I will do a full wipe to see if there's any different.

And does NFC work? Can't read anything from my card

Other than above, everything works great!
[One (M8) Original Android Development] rogerrulez:
I just installed this rom, the slimrom, and it did the same thing to me as well. All other roms I've tried that are Nougat caused my phone to reboot as well. Haven't figured it out yet however, I did install Beanstalk twice now with no problems whatsoever !
[One (M8) Original Android Development] masantula:
I can't access Root or use Titanium Backup, anyone have that issue?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] MrWBucket:
Root

I couldn't find root in Developer Options when I installed build 0.8, so I just flashed Super SU in recovery. Titanium was happy with that.

I don't see it in build 0.9 either. I'm not sure if this is related, but I read that the Lineage OS roms were not coming with root, that had to be installed separately.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] old.splatterhand:
To get TB working is a bit tricky. SuperSu or similar is essential, of course.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Leon:
RR user here, BUT TB works good on me with stock root and super su also.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] TharakaKS:
Testing latest Slim7 beta 0.9.

Pretty stable for beta. (one random reboot so far for last 2 days. I'll grab a logcat later)

Fast and fluid.

Zero issues with data, wifi, bluetooth, gps

Battery seems to be good as Slim6 for me
[One (M8) Original Android Development] masantula:
Okay so Root issue is sorted and Titanium Backup works. I noticed there is no SMS app, does the ROM not support SMS yet or if i download any SMS app from playstore it would work? Many thanks.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] TharakaKS:
Download Google Messenger. SMS works fine.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] masantula:
Thank you for this :)

[One (M8) Original Android Development] old.splatterhand:
Still, if i had a wish for Slim Rom, i would wish it had outgoing/incoming network traffic in status bar...:angel::)
[One (M8) Original Android Development] justsomeguy007:
Hey thanks for the great rom! Just thought I would share battery life for this rom, because its actually ridiculous. Better than on any other ROM I've tried even sense based ones. No power saver at anytime during use. WiFi was on the entire time, with even an hour of Bluetooth. Thanks for such a great battery friendly rom!

Feedback on Slim7 Beta 0.13 (after switching from Slim6 stable 2.0)

Hello,

I moved to Slim7 a few days ago (coming from Slim6), using the most recent beta 0.13. Unfortunately there are some issues, some of them carried over from Slim6 (I reported them in the respective thread, but there was a never a reply - is it correct that [MENTION=4350964]Flinny[/MENTION] is the only maintainer for SlimRIM on our beloved device?). Anyway, I thought I'll try again here and report my findings:

As in Slim6: the "back" button in the settings screen for the screen off gestures is still broken (no functionality, but one can use the regular back button in the navigation bar)

As in Slim6: the attempt to create a link to any SlimSetting (via widgets) on the screens always end in an FC of SlimLauncher.

The search bar can't be disabled. Even though I turned it off in the launcher settings for the home screen, a white full width search bar is visible on the first screen. As I can't rid of it, it blocks a complete row of app icons from being placed there.

Maybe just a missing feature and no bug, but I can't jump to the first screen by pressing the home button a second time? This worked on every other ROM I ever tried (and even Slim6), but not anymore. I remain on the current screen and annoyingly have to scroll left by myself.

As the Slim team doesn't seem to be very transparent regarding the devlopment process, I'm not sure whether an official issue list exists somewhere? It would be nice to know whether these issues above are known ones (and being worked on?) or new. Maybe no one cares? I know it's a beta and bugs are to be expected, but at least the first two items above are quite old bugs, existing for months now...

Also the communication on Slim via the website is always after the fact, reporting on things that have been accomplished but not on the ones being in the pipeline. Or is there any roadmap resp. long term planning publicly documented? I'm wondering whether (and if so when?) the following currently missing functionalitites (compared to Slim6) will be re-added to Slim7:

Privacy Guard (gone? Or was I simply unable to find it?)

Dark theme for settings

Possibility to rename the icons (app titles) on the screens (even though they were rest after reboot – Slim6 bug or on purpose?)

FM Radio (not included in Slim7 anymore? Why? Any true non-streaming alternative available?)

I'd be glad to learn a little bit about the foreseeable future of Slim7 and the intended improvements (even if only recreation of functionality that existed before in Slim6). Thanks a lot! :)
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Flinny:
Guys (and Gals)

I've not forgotten about you all, I've been silly busy in RL and the time I have had to spend on Slim it's had to be behind the scenes stuff, sysadmin etc.

At the moment m7/m8/m9 + everything else is proving too much to give the attention it all deserves. Maybe somebody wants to step in and give me a hand/or even take over maintaining one of them.

Whilst we haven't opened registration up to everyone you can see what's currently going on ROM wise at https://bugs.slimroms.org/ and on https://review.slimroms.org/

Finally, just because I haven't replied to posts doesn't mean I haven't read them :)

Thanks,

Nick.

And on the 0.13 build i noticed the battery icon shows zero (in red) when actually the battery is full which can be seen when you unlock the phone. Not sure who to present this bug to. Thanks.
