[ROM][4.4.4][ALL] SlimKat 9.1 UNOFFICIAL [29/12/2015]

[Guest spikypotato]

Black screen when flashing ROM. Occurred in CWM 6.0.5.1, tried flashing TWRP 2.8.1.0 in fastboot but the problem is still there :(

EDIT: Solved. I must wipe dalvik, cache, cust and system before flashing any ROMs now. Weird...what went wrong? Could it be that synopsis kernel?

Recently I had tried to install TWRP 2.8.1.0, it did not work on my G510 (black screen).

Re-downloading and re-installing it did not help, I had to install TWRP 2.8.0.1 again.

When installing 8.18 yesterday, I only had wiped system, and everything works fine so far.

Can I uninstall Hangouts and Dialer from Slim Gapps? I want to use GTalk (because it's simple and light)

[Guest marcogeni]

Try using FAT32 on your 2nd partition, that works for me!

I had the same problem with ext4, only worked with ext2.

Thanks guys for your advice, I tried with fat32 and it worked.

I didn't try then anymore with ext2...

many thanks!

Using Tinfoil for Facebook Im getting white boxes on some pictures.

 

Can this be fixed?

Unfortunately, no.

However in the display-caf version of SlimKat, the 'white boxes' problem's gone, but the ROM is still in experimental phase. Not suitable for daily use, yet.

Settings -> SlimCenter -> slimsizer, you can uninstall most of the system apks

[Guest luca020400]

No

Sorry , I missed the other page ;)

I see you use Synopsis kernel,is this better?

I look up kernel settings and they say lulzactive is best,but Synopsis does not have this.

So far so good. No random reboots yet. The phone seems more responsive.

I don't use Kernel Settings, I just use the default config: Ondemand/SIO

The only bug is that the SELinux is disabled instead of 'Permissive', which I suspect may cause 'the black screen' problem (post #4126) when flashing ROMs in recovery.

EDITED.

Do you find it causes issues with your phone signal?

I found I had to reboot twice to get signal to recieve sms/calls,but am not sure if the kernel would cause this

Nope. I just got a call a few minutes ago. 

EDIT: Oh great. First random reboot just occurred. LOL xD

Any updates on SlimLP?

 

Since my last SlimLP update, I now have audio and camera mostly working. Audio is working but without the FM radio support. The camera can take photographs but freezes and crashes out when trying to record a video clip.

 

In SlimKat + display-caf you may recall that I was getting black boxes in the browser or other apps that use webviewchromium (e.g. Feedly), especially under heavy load when other apps were still in memory. In SlimLP, so far, I haven't seen this issue - Feedly works perfectly.

 

SlimLP in general is progressing well - features are now starting to be re-added to the rom.

 

So what's left...

 

The main issue now is the RIL support - I can get it to compile but doesn't work. Other than that there is media support to fix (same as SlimKat + display-caf), FM radio, camera video recording and then performance issues.

 

Also, for anyone looking for a minimal Lollipop GApps I found this :)

You should ask to dazz for the ril

 

Have you added the fm app ?

Thanks chil, the rom promises good :)

The audio HAL doesn't compile with FM enabled - I think the fm support in the underlying audio interfaces hasn't been added yet.

@chil360

Can you use the Source from your Slimkat with display-caf to fix RIL?

[Guest chil360]

The RIL interfaces have changed between kitkat and lollipop. I have copied in the missing QualcommSharedRIL.java from SlimKat which is used by our HuaweiQualcommRIL.java class and ported them to compile but can't get them to work.

[Guest]

Are there any possibilities to see more updates for SlimKat, maybe with caf-display version? I'm not talking about Slim team updates... sorry for my bad english

Thanks!

[Guest CuervoROM]

Hello. Congratulations to all for your work.

 

For months I try to compile lollipop since released the source code, but I can't succesfully compile because I always find something wrong.

 

What's Linux version you use to compile Lollipop for our g510? I usually use Ubuntu 14.04.

If you can say, what github repositories used for this?

 

It is the first time I compile something and I'm a mess.

 

Sorry for my bad english.

 

Thank you all.

 

Greetings and luck.

[Guest djtepa538]

Hi.

Today I tried to install Firefox OS rom on my Huawei Ascend G510, but I wasn't pleasent with that rom so I restored Slimkat.

After restore I cannot connect to mobile network. I don't have mobile network signal anymore.

Any solutions?

P.S Sorry about my english
