I will be updating this as often as possible.
This thread is designed ONLY for the support of the T-999(V) Liquid Smooth rom.
For latest AOSP builds to flash you need to be on latest bootloader of d2tmo: T999UVDLJA, T999UVDLJC, T999UVDMD5 & T999VVLDLL1 for it to boot. In order to have the latest boot loader you need to update via ODIN or Over The Air. Here is CyanogenMOD stating so. YOU CAN CHECK WHICH BOOTLOADER YOURE ON BY DOWNLOADING TERMINAL EMULATOR FROM THE PLAY STORE AND ENTERING THESE THINGS:
su(ENTER)
getprop ro.bootloader(enter) edited from phone so excuse the errors and code usage
THIS THREAD IS NOT CREATED by The Liquid Team.
This thread is designed to help keep the dev thread clean and clear for the dev's to do their magic. So please, feel free to ask any questions about the ROM, but trolling and flaming will not give great results and will be reported. If you ignore to read this OP & 2nd post and ask questions that have been answered I most likely will ignore you, or be rude haha. Keep up to date with the ROM/recovery, meaning install the latest version of the ROM/and your recovery before reporting anything.
-The main Dev thread is located here
-GAPPS can be found here
-THE ROM downloads can be found here

Post your findings/fixes with your install procedure (what did you wipe, or no wipe at all), along with your Recovery version, your kernel and any mods you may have installed (most likely will be the issue at hand).
I'm not responsible nor are the Devs, for what to you do to your phones... go cry somewhere else.
If you want sympathy go look it up in the dictionary, it's between s**t and syphillis.
ACTUAL Q&A
Remember these guys take a lot of time out of their lives to do all this for free. They build the rom the way they want it, and they use it too. Be respectful, if you don't like the way it is or what they chose, then move on and use what you prefer.
Here is the Q&A part.
I am having troubles installing the Liquid Illusion rom: INSTALL PROCESS
Boot into recovery: From Power off
-Volume UP & Home button & Power Button at the same time! Hold until little vibrate and Blue text in top left corner, now you can release.
-wipe data\factory reset, cache, system.
-Install ROM
-Install GAPPS (Google APPS) Latest 13, Mar 01
-Boot & let sit for 5 minutes (lets cache and scripts run)
-Sign in to Google and if Restoring I feel it's best to let it sit and install all those apps before messing with the phone.
-Enjoy, or how some say it "PROFIT"
If dirty flashing from this rom and OP does not require a Dirty Flash
The recommended upgrade procedure should be:
-Backup/Nandroid - Optional
-Format /System - Should be automatically done
-Wipe cache
-Wipe Dalvik cache
-Install ROM
-Install GAPPS
-Reboot System
List of features
If they aren't new then... cool story lol. I'm gonna be so mad if the base changes again MIKE!!!!!!
Here is stuff for xposed settings and dpi and what not. I dont use any of this at all, but most like and love to tinker so I will leave it here for you guys.

Nightlys will have their own issues probably, and always. Now most common one is flickering, try a custom kernel that is built after 4-19.
In interface.
Notification img in landscape can be changed
Transparency can be adjusted to your liking
Notification shortcuts can be added from 4-16 of them
Recent Rambar is customizable
Vibration Multiplier is now here, able to lower/raise haptic feedback of capacitive buttons natively.
Lockscreen
Buttons this will allow while on the lock screen to hold one of the capacitive/physical buttons to complete an action ie: torch, or skip track.
a bunch of widget options for the lockscreen
change the transperency of the lock screen
Lock screen shortcuts
Have the option to have up to 8 targets in lockscreen slider
instead of just tapping on the lockscreen shorcuts you can set it to long press to open those.
PowerWidget is like the toggle mod in TouchWiz or older builds of AOSP
Quicksettings/4.2 Tiles
You can disable it altogether
Quick pulldown is the option to pull from left or right corners to immediately jump into quicksettngs
Tiles and Layout hold all the options availale
SatusBar
Brightness control (must have auto brightness unchecked) allows you to slide your finger left to right accross the status bar to adjust brightness extremely handy with this display vs sun light lol
Notification count, it shows a little blue number next to a notification if you have multiple ones.
Then you have your clock options (right and center) Battery icons, clock and date looks and such.
then color of the satus bar is changeable as well, all colors available (pretty much). You can change the transparency for launcher, launcher & Lockscreen, or all in all everywhere.
Display
CRT Screen options for on and off, off looks realy nice like a slight subtle dim.
Notification Light options are in here if you are new to CM LED.
Accessibility
I add this cause it is overlooked a lot.
magnification gestures (Takes three taps).
Large text optoin for those Gramps & Grams.
Power Button to end a call.
Home button answers a call.
Developer Options
Change transmissions/animations to .5 for warp speed.
kill app via back button.
NOW FOR SYSTEM APPS
Messaging
Group messaging is available (yes like the iPhone).
Privacy mode (obvious what that does).
Shop popup for incoming texts and quick reply is available.
One of those sought out features of making a call by putting phone to face while in the text thread of the party you wish to call, is available via Direct Call.
Messaging font size.
Currently Known bugs, work arounds, and suggestions/tips.
-A2DP (streaming music and phone calls) its fixed with 4.2.2 except for a couple of unhappy users.
-Video calls (Skype, Google Hangouts, Tango) Mixed reviews, sorry. I had low audio, some report that all is great though.
-Camera works all in all but NO PHOTOSPHERE. While taking an image with flash the image will show without flash, but it saves normally.
-Picasa sync does not work
Install this to have it work https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=larry.zou.colorfullife&hl=en
-Getting an error reading "cannot read /data/xposed/modules.whitelist", you need to go to System settings>Interface>DPI Installer>Install. It will stop the popup.
-CMFileExplorer http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1451113&d=1351866036
(with this app, go to settings>general settings>access mode>select root access mode> go back to main page get root by pressing "parent folder" over and over til you can't no more.)
-Battery!!!!!!
It will improve as the days go by, or get worse depending on what you do, NO one can tell how good battery is until at least 2 charges, so don't ask "how is battery" 6 hours after it is uploaded. Battery varies for every person, I don't play many games on my phone, Bike Race is the only one. I get 4 hours on screen time, and 12 hours of use. With MY light usage I get 1 day 16 hours with 2.5-3 hours screen on time. Everyone will have different results with their phones setup differently.
-Screen shot is done by Volume down and Power! Or by "power menu" settings>rom control>power menu>Select "Show ScreenShot" hold power button to view.
-"I don't see a 4g/H symbol" You may need to flash the latest radio from here to see it, you are getting your normal speeds regardless though. Here is the link to flashable modem List - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1860592

Re: [Q&A] Illusion ROM
Not really question but a list of some apps that are not playing nice with aokp build.
1.)Starbucks official card as well as "my Starbucks card" bar code shows is in landscape mode while in portrait no way to switch it around so useless to scan your orders
*solution: use your plastic card, use another smart device like tab, another phone or device like iPod touch etc.
2.)Pandora radio sometimes gets stuck on the station so you can not change station. Also you can not add a new station
*solution either wait or close out Pandora then reopen the app and you should be able to change station
*to change station do so on another device like PC, phone tablet etc.
Have no idea if this is specific to this ROM aokp(Pandora had same issue with cm10 base) or if this is just typical of 4.2.1 itself

Re: [Q&A] Illusion ROM
Got a folder question. It's super annoying. Here's the scenario. Downloaded some music in a zip file. Extract it and in my music apps it has each song listed 2x. Looks like one is in my 0/ folder and the other in my legacy/ folder. If I delete either one. It deletes both. How do I avoid the linking of the 2 folders?

Re: [Q&A] Illusion ROM
I think the external speaker is still something in the works within coding. I use headphones daily and they still same the same to me doesn't matter what ROM I use. I always remove any "sound mods" in any ROM I try.
As for the folder issue, I haven't a clue. Remove all of them and save them to your computer and transfer them over and place on external. That's what I do and have no issues at all.

There aren't any in this ROM besides DSP and music fix I believe but I havent touched those. External speaker is the way it is until AOSP code is 100% complete. Its distorted at its loudest it seems to me. I never have my phone set to max.

V1.3 can be found here
Please note: I am NOT the original creator of this ROM, this ROM was originally made by Civato, and as a result, he deserves all the credit for it. All I did was modify a few things in order to make it work and display a little better on our A100.
The original ROM was called RE-FLEXxx-ShellSHOCK and is based on This thread . If you happen to like this ROM make sure you hit up his thanks button, or better yet, send him a donation.
Some Features:
- Bits and pieces taken from Android 4.0.4 and 4.1 (mainly based on 4.0.4) off of ROMS from the Acer A500 and A700.
- Boatloads of scripts and tweaks for performance
- Acer features like the Acer Ring (WIP), Acer Print, and Dolby Mobile
- Most of the bloatware removed
- godmachine kernel pre-overclocked at 1.2GHZ. If you want to change that you will need an app for it.
- Google Now with functional TTS for other apps
- nice and fancy notification screen (taken from the A700)
- lots more
- Capacitive home button now launches google now or long press for Google Voice Search
-modified font and softkeys for unique UI
-Awesome BEATS
-Entropy Seeder 2.0
-LMT launcher (sort of like PIE for Paranoid Android)
For more information, you can check out his thread for his A500 here. Keep in mind that the more updates I do, the more it differs from that thread
DISCLAIMER: I will not be held responsible if this borks your system! Remember the risks of flashing custom ROMS!
Instructions:
Make sure you do a FULL NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE INSTALLING
Also make sure you do a COMPLETE WIPE (Data/Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, and format flexrom)
Install ZIP from your SD card (or wherever you downloaded it to)
Reboot!
BUGS/QUIRKS:
1) Although the lockscreen is 100% functional, you might notice that it looks a little funny when swiping to unlock.
2) It has come to my attention that headset microphones don't work on this ROM. I don't know if it is as of the last update or it has been a persistent issue. A way to temporary solve this is to download an app from the Play store called "soundabout" In this app, there is an option where you can force the microphone to work from the device, even when a headset is plugged in.
If there is anything else, please let me know!
One other thing I would like to note, is that it seems that the "touchscreen issue" is much less apparent with this ROM. Perhaps some people who commonly have that problem can provide feedback on this.

Does this mean that the original KEBBERSROM is discontinued in favor of this one?
I still have at least one update in store for the original kebbersrom, and likely more, but I'm thinking of keeping it a stockish rom and perhaps be editing this one more and making it less stock like because of all the awesome additions already made to it.

Nice m8, good job!
About Acer ring on A100, don't use the Jellybean ring , use the other one from the ICS rom.(1.0 acerring version)
Then make the outerring (not possible in the JB ring) transparent. That will make the outer ring disappear and you will get only the innerring with icons and the volume slider. This will be shown correctly.
Unpack the Acerring apk with winrar (or decompile but for a image mod like this it is not needed) , and in drawable you make "outter_ring.png" 100% transparent.(with a image tool)
Thanks for the advice Civato, I'll definitely give that a try and we will see what happens! I have a decent idea on the acerring, because I have been fiddling around with the old ICS one on my other ROM and almost have that to my liking.
In terms of the lockscreen issue that was there before, it turns out that it wasn't a screen resolution issue, it was actually an icon issue. It was missing one of the drawable folders for the unlock icons that I saw in the framework-res.apk of the A100 roms, so I added it in and boom, the lockscreen came back (although the unlock animations are still a bit funny looking, but it's fully working).

Have you found out where the animations are located within the framework-res.apk... more so if they're in their own folder within the apk?

To be honest I haven't looked into it yet. All the animations are there. You will only notice the funny animation if you press on the unlock button without "swiping" it. You will see the lock icon move to the right of the screen. All the other animations work properly and the lockscreen is fully functional so it hasn't exactly been on the top of my priority list.
Update: Kebbersrom_shellshock v1.1
Released a minor update that fixes the Acer Ring layout as well as the camera upside down bug. Thanks again to Civato for helping in doing this.
I might be releasing some CWM zips to change the capacitive home button. I changed it to google now/voice search but I'm sure some people won't like it.
Dumb question but is it okay for me to flash this over 1.0 or should I do a clean wipe and install?
You probably can, but make sure you do a nandroid backup first in case something goes wrong. Alternatively, I actually wiped everything first (including Flexrom) and flashed the new version, then went into backup and restore, and advanced restore, restored data. This was in CWM. That brought everything back I had in V1.0

Fine then I will!
Attached are CWM zips for capacitive home button. I think they are fairly self-explanatory. One will make it the home button that it is meant for, one will disable it for those who don't like it, and the third will allow it to launch Google Now, as per this ROM's default.
All you need to do is download them, place them onto your device and then flash with CWM. There is no need to wipe anything before flashing. Just flash and reboot. I tested them all and they are working fine for me. You might want to do a backup first though, just to be on the safe side.

It's kinda important I just noticed and fixed an issue with the other kernels, I still can't guarantee there performance but I've done all I can.
Can't say for sure, because I never had an issue but might have fixed issue with the AOSP gallery/camera app and flashplayer being copied to the sdcard/S3Rx_apps.

Pics below are old but they will give a general idea of what to expect. I will re do them soon.
FAQ/Issues
KNOWN ISSUES:
Aroma might hang during installation. Hold power button until it reboots. It will reboot right back into recovery so don't worry.
Aroma's color might be off sometimes.
The Play/Pause function of "Music controls" does not currently work once the phone goes into deep sleep. Which is about 3 seconds. Need someone skilled with kernel development to give us a hand on this one.
AOSP Mms has a bug that when selecting your own contact in a message thread, it will force close the contacts app
A WiFi calling popup will show when setting up your WiFi for the first time.
Battery Notifications might be a little screwey the first charge. Might have to toggle the setting once you actually have a full charge and the notification, then unplug. If turned off the Notifications should be gone from now on.
Be careful using the volume up key when taking pictures with Best photo. It might cause issues. The on screen button works fine, and the volume key works fine in all other modes.
Tell us if you notice anything else.

GPS:
GPS not locking: Unfortunately This is going to happen to some when coming from AOSP based ROMs and other carrier ports.
A couple common fixes include...
=====================================================================================================================================================================
1. Easiest and most reliable way. Try this first!
Enter the Samsung service mode by typing this code into the dial pad *#197328640#
Then go to Mainmenu>UMTS>Common>NV REBUILD>NV REBUILD> (Important: don't exit the menu yet!)
Wait 30+ sec
Long press power button and select "Restart / Reboot"
Now check your GPS from any software that may use GPS like "Maps" or "GPS Status"...
All credit to harshaedvern for this easy fix
=====================================================================================================================================================================
2. Returning to the stock ROM via ODIN, acquire a GPS lock then reboot into Recovery.. Wipe and Flash new ROM.I recommend trying Chainfire's MOBILE ODIN first before the desktop version, it's really easy to use and it's free to XDA users HERE.
You can flash an ODIN package right from your phone and still retain your custom recovery, simply exclude it from the list of partitions to flash.
It will also inject ROOT if the ODIN package does not already have it... makes things really simple.=====================================================================================================================================================================
3. Restoring a nandroid of a TouchWiz ROM with a known working GPS status, make sure all location services are enables and can obtain a GPS lock. (go to additional steps now if needed) Reboot, Wipe and Flash New ROM...Additional steps if required before flashing new ROM:
Backup your internal storage and take out your sd-card now... just in case stuff gets deleted. Do a Factory Reset form within the restored TW nandroid. Reboot... Skip all the setup stuff... acquire a GPS lock again... Reboot into recovery Wipe and Flash the new ROM.=====================================================================================================================================================================
4. Flash back to the AOSP ROM you were just on. Obtain a GPS lock, then reinstall ROM again and see if GPS works
=====================================================================================================================================================================
5. Repeat until one of the options ends up working... Not much else to tell you to try. Good luck!
=====================================================================================================================================================================
GPS and Location Services: If you have Google Maps installed and Google Now, you will notice Maps uses your location services a lot during the day. Apparently Google thinks we need our location tracked 24/7. Turning GPS on only when needed will help eliminate the wakelocks created by maps. Going a step further you may also want to disable the "Use Network Location", This will also stop other apps form getting your location... Most apps will let you enter your location manually so it's not really a big deal turning it off, especially when your talking about increasing your battery life.
Thanks guys! Can't wait to try this rom!!!!
Wooo hoooo can't wait!

So this is the 4.1.2 port you guys were creating right? I cannot wait to try it out!
Downloading now and just in time I was getting twitchy from not having a new Rom to try!!
It's hell being a flashaholic!!
"Yer off the edge of the map Mate here there be monster's"
Just so everyone know this rom is super fast and stable I've been testing it just about a month you won't be disappointed anyways great job on this rom you can't even tell that it's a ported T-Mobile you would think it's a official AT&T Rom anyways enjoy and yes got a few options for theming in aroma including red deadly venom theme

Taking forever to download big zip I guess
"Yer off the edge of the map Mate here there be monster's"
Just (clean) flashed this on my Canadian i747 -- so far, so good!
Loving the customization options (fonts especially)...
Been on stock VLDLK4 since I've had my device...
Overall, this ROM is very nicely done -- and is definitely a keeper.
oh man, this is awesome:
** "Please do not post any comments about battery life" --> yes, rule #1: there are no comments about battery life. use the ROM, let your device DIE (1% battery ^_^), charge it, let it die (again) and ....again....then you can get a true idea of battery life.

Fast "FREE" File hosting is hard to find for these large ROMs. Android File Host is probably the fastest, next to the Torrent. and the Torrent will be really fast if everyone would seed for a coulple of days.

I know, I see you all over these forums. I think you must have flashed everything by now. lol So I'm interested in what you think. Now we keep it minimalistic. It has lots of options but doesn't necessarily feel like a custom ROM if you know what I mean.

Your the man. You help out a lot in these forums, don't think it doesn't go unnoticed. You know what really sucks? I don't think your going to have to help anyone this time. I think we nailed it.
You know I don't know what I'll get next. I know it won't be an S4.... maybe but I have another year and by that time the next greatest thing will be out. I'm actually super pleased with my S3. We have a great community here and that really makes this phone worth having.
Can I dirty flash from s3rx?

RootBox is built straight from RootBox sources and always carries a very light installation with no extra/useless apps. This means, you can enjoy a pure Android experience combined with AOKP,CM, and Paranoid Android features; with some CM cherry-picks. Keep in mind Jelly Bean is only at the beginning stage of development and there will be minor bugs, but this ROM is working well enough to be called a daily driver. Thanks for flashing and please report any issues, logs, complaints, wanted additions, or anything within reason ( while following XDA rules)... Enjoy

Known Issues
these "fixes" are only necessary if you are experiencing problems
if experiencing mms issues try this:
MMS confirmed working for a few in IRC.. send receive should work now if you're lucky and can follow directions.
1. Delete telephony.db located at /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db ...Open ES File Explorer > Press the menu button > Settings > Scroll to the bottom > Make sure "Root Explorer" is checked > Click "OK" > navigate to the directory starting from "/" (you could prob do this with the CM file explorer too)
2. Delete messaging Data...From home screen > Press menu button > Manage Apps > "All" tab > Find Messaging > Press "Clear data" button
3. Reboot. Clear cache if you want.
GPS issues:
go back to stock rom or a stock based rom ( a back up is sufficient )
Get a GPS lock and keep it for a few minutes ( make certain you are getting a lock from GPS and not your network or WiFi )
Flash back to ROOTBOX
That should solve any GPS problems
Battery drain issues:
if your experiencing major battery drain there are a few things you can try i will list a few here....
turn wifi, gps, bluetotth, and sync off when not using it
turn auto-brightness off and adjust it to your liking
lower sceen time-out to 15 or 30 seconds
try installing an app like greenify or batteryguru that will shut down apps that are running in the background
try changing your govenor from performance to powersave with an app like faux enhancement or trickstermod
try lowering your max freq. from 15+ to something a little lower
turn things like daydream off if you dont use it
try using wifi more often if able 3g/mobile data will suck the battery dry in no time
try looking in task manager to see if you have rouge apps hanging out.. if you do stop them
Try flashing smoocha kernel can find it in the android development section for this phone
these in no way are guaranteed to get you more life but they are a start to getting better life..hell it cant hurt only make it better
Camera focus issues:
Double tap instead of single tap
Switch to a different mode then back..(switch to HDR then back, switch to panorama then back)
Try the script method posted below
Try a third party camera app
Or try this: a quick hack work-around to anyone who has auto-focus working but only for the 1st app launch.
using smanager
* Install and launch smanager
* Make a new script with this in it
killall mm-qcamera-daemon
killall com.android.gallery3d
am force-stop os.tools.scriptmanager
am start -n com.android.gallery3d/com.android.camera.CameraLauncher
* Click on the script. Set it as "favorite" and highlight "SU". Save
* Add a shortcut on launcher. Select SMShortcuts.
* Select Add one script shortcut. Pick your script. Change the name/image to whatever you want.
* Hit OK and profit.
Need to thank sputnikk23 & prowlingfox for this workaround
or try with tasker method

To do this, In Tasker:
Create a new Task called "Load Camera".
Click the + sign.
Click on Script.
Click on Run Shell.
Paste the following into the Command section (note that the first line is missing - that's on purpose):
Code:
killall com.android.gallery3d
am force-stop os.tools.scriptmanager
am start -n com.android.gallery3d/com.android.camera.CameraLauncher
Check the box next to Use Root - not sure if this is needed or not, but it works fine if it's checked.
Click the Tasker icon in the top left of the screen to accept the changes for the shell command.
Click the Tasker icon in the top left of the screen again to accept the changes to the Task.
Click on the Profiles tab.
Click on the + sign.
I called my Profile "Load Camera"
Click on "Application".
Select Camera.
Click on the Tasker icon in the top left of the screen to accept the selection.
Click on the task that you created in the first steps to tie the profile to the task.
Enjoy....
Give it a shot and let me know if it doesn't work for you, but it works just great for me.

I used the banks minimal but as long as your using a current 4.2.2 gapps I think you'll be good... But I'm not a frequent rootbox user so whatever gapps people were using in rlasalle'$ thread should apply here... today is actually the longest I've been on rb
I was on RB before switching to your AOKP.... Now I gotta decide whether or not to switch back. Since I'm running a fresh 6/29 AOKP build, I may just backup and flash RB. Then I have both! YAY!

Yeah that's an issue that's known and I believe the gang is working on it... you can more or less conclude that this ROM will have all of the same bugs that all of our aosp ROMs have.... We are all building from teamlgog source... Except for the kernel in this rom..... which syn is a listed member in teamlgog's Github so in a way it's still using their source for that as well..... In short it is being looked into though I can't exactly speak for them since I'm not a member... but if anything gets fixed it will be included

Although the rom is still in beta and new features will be added soon, here are some things that would make it perfect(I hope the Devs see this):
1. Screen record and screenshot options in quick settings or power menu.
2. Download speed in status bar.
3. Cyanogen Mod 10 style GPS quick settings tile that doesn't ask for location consent every time (saw this in gravitybox)
4. Camera tile in quick settings.
5. Clear all button in recent apps.
This feature list is not too farfetched and I hope that the Devs read this thread and bring these features to the ROM.
+1 to clear all recent apps button, really miss this one
Nexus 7 LTE
SlimKat KOT49H
Bricked Kernel
I would love for the slim team to bring back widget view pager..haven't seen this feature included on any KitKat roms...Also would love a quick tile for quiet hours and an option to show the cpu temp in status bar

Official statement: Two of the most requested features are the "clear all" in recents apps and the DPI changer in settings. This is our comment about these requests:
- We won't implement the clear all button because killing all apps is generally unnecessary and might even be bad for the overall performance. You can read more about it here: http://slimroms.net/index.php/faq/slimbean/238-why-do-i-have-less-memory-free-on-my-device
- We are working on the DPI changer and will include that in the rom in the foreseeable future.
Thanks

Quiet Hours
1. Quiet hours: option to bypass android starred contacts aka favorite contacts. Now only disable, all numbers and contacts.
.2 On/off setting to QH (bypass time setup, like "allways on").
3. icon notification bar when QH is on (show / do not show the settings)
notification led settings: Disabled when charge.
Thanks!
suspend action (option to select data, gps, wifi, 2G - OFF when screen goes into off)

You guys are doing an awesome job. However, I think most of Slim fans do wish for the "clear all" button. So please bring it back in the first official release.

I don't think you read the post. Clearing apps like some sort of ocd iphone user doesn't help anything and it hinders proper operation of the OS. SO why should they add it?

Blurred lockscreen would be awesome!
Just tried SlimKat RC1, and it runs really smooth. 1 question though:
Will all features from SlimBean eventually get ported over? Like Battery Bar, Dual Pane Settings, Advanced reboot etc?
Thanks
Clear All button
Yes, I've also grown accustomed to the Clear All button, and miss it in SlimKat.
However, I acknowledge this is yet another remnant of an ancient time when Android had rather crappy memory management, so closing apps manually was a must.
Ever since 4.0, memory management has improved a lot, making the habit of closing apps manually unnecessary.
Closing apps manually also wastes more battery.
EDIT: To see Android doing its thing, pay attention when you play memory-hungry games (I play RR3). Sometimes during the race, when you hit Home and open another app, you can jump back into the game right where you were. Sometimes the game is restarted from the blue EA screen.

Credit where credit is due:
As with any open source stuff, some of this work is my own, most of it comes from other sources. So in addition to my own work (mostly in the "mean" category), here's a quick thanks to those of you who contributed knowingly (thank you) and not-so-knowingly via open source 5 finger discount (thank you just the same: your stuff is good and that's why I used it). Sometimes it's not entirely obvious where the source started so if I missed someone, please let me know and I'll add you. Also, I'm careful to only include other work where the author does not specify any usage restrictions or has given approval. If you believe, however, that I've included something that shouldn't be in this ROM, please just PM me.
Credit krowley3: I used your Sophisticated ROM as a base (thanks for the offer!)!
Other credits: I list them in the features section above and give links to the original works so you can donate to other devs for specific mods you like!
Want my stuff?:
I list credits in the features section above and links to original works: if you see something credited there and you want to use it, click the link and seek permission from the developer I've credited. If you see something in this ROM and I don't reference some other source, I probably coded it myself. If you want it: take it and use it in your ROM, your theme, whatever you like. I just ask that you please credit me. I'm a firm believer in Android and open source so you don't even have to ask. Anything you see here... it's yours for just the price of a simple line crediting me. I always share as I believe that's the way we developers put the power in Android... and one way we can fight "the Apple brainwashing machine".
Below are some pointers on updating your firmware, installing recoveries, modding, etc. before we get to the good stuff (installation and downloads).
CHANGELOG:
See post #2
Problems after you flash?:
PLEASE DO NOT REPORT PROBLEMS IN THIS THREAD UNTIL you've done a full wipe and fresh install to see if that cures it. I know I should really just do like most devs and proclaim REQUIRES FULL WIPE/FRESH INSTALL on every version. That saves me a lot of headaches but I know what a PITA a fresh install can be even with MyBackup or Titanium at your disposal. So it never hurts to try just a flash without a full wipe, but if you run into any HINT of a problem... anything at all... don't report the problem in this thread until you've tried a full wipe and fresh install first to see if that cures the problem!
Installation - a final note:
First, the usual disclaimers. I supply the ammo, you use it. ROMS don't kill phones, n00bs do. Use this ROM at your own risk as I won't be responsible for bricks or any other untoward happenings. I spent a lot of time ensuring that the stuff in this ROM is fast, smooth, and compatible. But... it always helps to have some familiarity with flashing ROMs to keep yourself safe.
Download links are below
Now to installation of the ROM itself...
Always make a Nandroid backup before installing anything on your phone!
On first install of MeanBean Reborn, do a full wipe
Install using recovery (I use latest CWM)
Once booted, set up phone and accounts
To get Apns to show;
Dial *#*#4636#*#*, select GSM only, let it register, then go back to GSM/LTE
Add APN
Tick light effect in lockscreen settings if desired for special lockscreen!!
Enjoy
... you're gonna break it!
Don't flash any other mods, tweaks, or themes unless they specifically say they are built for (the latest version of) MeanBean or you WILL break features in this ROM and/or cause instability! While this ROM is designed to have the general look/feel of the stock ROM, it is highly customized under the hood and mods, tweaks, or themes not designed specifically for this ROM will cause problems. If you want this ROM to run perfectly without any issues, do not flash anything on top.
Latest releases (TWRP recovery recommended):
CURRENT BUILD
MeanBean v2.0 SUPERCHARGED
KERNEL
Modded Agni Kernel
^USE THIS IF YOU WANT OVERCLOCKING AND SOUND MODS ETC. ALSO COMES WITH ITS APP

Build prop tweaks
Removed stock toggles and brightness slider: use included Power Toggles to customize your own toggles
Flashable ZIP in /sdcard/MeanBean_Reborn to restore stock toggles/brightness
Zero battery drain extended screen-off volume controls - usage
The volume buttons on the left side of the phone can be used to perform special functions when the screen is turned off. Because this is a modification to the framework and the code is never executed until you press the volume keys with the screen off, it uses zero battery unlike some of the apps you find on Google Play that are always running in the background, draining your battery as they monitor key status. Usage is as follows:
TAP for volume: Simply tap volume up/down to increase/decrease volume.
LONG PRESS to skip tracks: Press and hold volume up/down for 0.5 second (but not more than 1 second) to skip to next/prev. track.
VERY LONG PRESS to play/pause: Press and hold volume up/down for 1 second (but not more than 2 seconds) to skip to next/prev. track.
HOLD to turn torch light on/off: Press and hold volume up/down for at least 2 seconds to turn torch light on/off.
Once you get a feel for the timing, it's very easy to operate!
Turning off Zero Wake Lag
If you want maximum battery life and you don't mind the screen-on delay, you can turn off the ZWL mod. Use Root Explorer or ES File Explorer and open /system/build.prop with /system in R/W mode. Then locate this line at the very bottom of the file:
Code:
meanbean.opt.zerowakelag=true
Change to this:
Code:
meanbean.opt.zerowakelag=false
Turning on Music Notifications
By default, notification sounds don't play while you are listening to music so that your music is not being constantly interrupted by notifications from your email, Kik Messenger, text messaging app, SnapChat and other apps that use push notifications. Notifications work normally when no music is playing. Most people prefer to listen to music without these constant interruptions and without having to resort to airplane mode or turning notification volume all the way down manually. If you do want notification sounds, however, you can turn them on so that they play even during music by making the following change in the build.prop file. Use Root Explorer or ES File Explorer and open /system/build.prop with /system in R/W mode. Then locate this line at the very bottom of the file:
Code:
meanbean.opt.musicnotify=false
Change to this:
Code:
meanbean.opt.musicnotify=true
Omg! O_O

This thing is running pretty sweet. Only thing I've had to do is, since I quit out of Setup Wizard, I had to turn off it's notifications and stop it.
Otherwise it barks at me for not having a Verizon SIM.

The one I did it Setup Wizard version 1.0. It's a big red check mark in Apps. 196kb in size.
Under /system/app
-rw-r--r-- root root 924003 2008-08-01 05:00 SetupWizard.apk
I don't think this is the same one I've turned off.
