Does this have HALO? I do not see it in the feature list. Very interested in giving this a shot if so! Thanks for your hard work!

I hate being *that guy*, but it clearly states check the FAQs...
http://slimroms.net/index.php/faq/slimbean/349-add-halo
Two questions I didn't see-
1- Is a wipe needed when coming from another version
2- Can I change the lock screen shortcuts yet?

I have been waiting for a 4.4 Slim. Unfortunately it looks like the most current beta does not support changing the LCD density yet. 360 is just too small for my old eyes. I will try once I'm able to change DPI to 480.

Texdroider dpi in the play store works great for doing that!

+1. I can confirm that Texdroider DPI does the job perfectly. And thank God for it. Aging eyes here too, and as much as I like Slimkat, I just couldn't hack it.

about time we got a 4.4 thread for this killer rom! been on the 4.4 build since weekly 6 and have not had one issue with it at all. so glad that TRDS has been added back in as well as all the amazing tweaks you guys have made! can't wait for the theme choose to be added in!!

Great ROM!
One question though, is there any way to get a double tap of the built-in HTC home icon to bring up the menu within apps or from the home screen?
Thanks

I'm using this kernel to enable HTC logo as menu as well as double tap to wake.

I'm wary at adopting AOSP for this phone again. I'm on my 5th One since September, with 3 of them dying with the hot battery/quick drain issue, and then dying so hard they end up as bricks. All 3 times I've been on a SlimROM. SlimBean once, and SlimKat twice.
I love SlimROMs and have had nothing but good things happen, until I got on the One. I've only seen a couple of instances of this happening with other AOSP adopters, so I know I'm in the minority. It's tough to pull the trigger though, after being through this many phones.
I'll keep an eye out on the thread, but I'm going to run stock for awhile.
Sorry this wasn't too constructive for the thread, but I guess I'm looking for positive assurance that no one else is having these issues.

[ROM][JB] Team EOS 3 JELLYBEAN Nightlies

Team EOSJB 4.1.2 Crespo4gNIGHTLIES
Continuing on from the success of the EOS ICS roms, we present to you EOS3, based on JELLYBEAN!
It is the goal of Team EOS to develop and maintain the highest performing and most stable AOSP based rom for an array of platforms. For the latest news on Team EOS releases make sure you follow @teameos on twitter and on IRC on Freenode in #teameos.
--
NOTE: Team EOS, it’s members, friends, dogs, cats, and associates are in no way responsible for any loss of data or device functionality. Use this at your own risk!
--
A quick note on Nightlies: NIGHTLIES ARE DEVELOPMENT BUILDS. They are automatically generated every now and then, and represent the compilation of the latest commits to the code repository. While every effort is made ensure that the commits that are accepted are stable and do not have a negative impact to the overall performance and function of the builds it is not possible to test every aspect of a commits impact to the overall repo prior to it’s inclusion in a given build. As a result it is entirely possible that instabilities may be introduced as a result of a given days commits. That is the nature of the nightly system, and the risk that is taken using the latest code changes to the project.
EOS is an AOSP based rom. It is developed and maintained by Team EOS and is the culmination of our own in house development efforts.
Team EOS Nightly builds: http://goo-inside.me/devs/teameos/roms/eos3/nightlies/crespo4g/
G-Apps Package
Because this is an AOSP based rom Google Apps are not included in the base rom. To install Google Apps please flash the following package after installing the base rom:
Gapps package gapps
--
Features:
Because these are nightly builds the included features are constantly evolving, we do not provide a change log manually. Instead please see the changes on jenkins for your build.
For the most up to date and comprehensive listing of the changes included in this rom please visit http://review.teameos.org
Kernel:
Kernel Note: This rom is currently using the stock kernel, so you can find the sources from aosp.
--
Installation Notes:
These builds are designed to be installed from your favorite recovery.
Perform a full wipe (read Factory Reset) prior to installing this over ANY ICS or JB based rom.
BUGS!
If you find strange or otherwise unexplained errors please report them here: https://bugs.teameos.org/ Please include logcats and as thorough a description of the issue and what lead up to the issue as possible. With out this we will be unable to track down these errors.

In the latest nightly you will find a new app called CDMATools. I wrote it for toroplus. But I'm venturing into supporting other cdma devices as well. There is a feature called Get MSL. Can you guys test it and confirm it works? Thx.

Anyone having MMS issues?

hi,
I've just installed this ROM that looks like great! (and I've ported this thread in another italian forum...)
Only a couple of requests, if it's possible... :
Would you like to add the volume rocker wake mod, for the "almost broken power button" users like me, and, ever if it's possible, add the "quad lock screen"?
Thanks anyway!!

It's very possible. Sprint and jb have never played nice regarding mms. We had the same issue on sprint gnex. I just ended up using gosms. Not the answer I like to give but at least the sexting can go on :laugh:

Ya. I think we may be able to do a tad better. It fascinates me how the demand for different features varies from device to device. Not saying that's a bad thing by any means. It's good because it spawns creativity and new ideas.

[ROM] [4.4.2] SlimKat (manta) [STABLE 4.0]

reserved

reserved2

From previous Android 4.3 builds at around 99mb to 140mb for 4.4... What's the extra that is included?

So for anyone trying this, here's my results after a little trial & error
Latest twrp didn't flash, aborted installation, error 7, etc..... In the n4/mako threads the majority of users were having this issue (worked fine for me). twrp for mako has been updated, but still waiting on a manta update
In the meantime i went over to cwm recovery thread. Haven't used that in ages and it seems there may be issues with some of their updates in general. There are flashables available for the last several versions. Here's the one that worked for me:
Clockwork_MOD-6.0.3.8-Touch-manta.zip
edit: just now signing in, everything booted well....happy flashing!

although when using google's launcher, the keyboard pops up everytime i use the home button
and for those asking about features, most are not available....have a little patience and we will see them arrive in time. the slim team has much planned (or so i hear )

Went ahead and no problems so far (FCs with a couple of apps, but I guess that's to be expected coming from 4.3). Yeah, the keyboard popup with the Google launcher is annoying as hell. Went directly to Nova. And I hope TWRP gets updated soon. Not a big fan of CWM.
Edit: CWM recoveries are written to the system partition, correct? So they're not accessible with any ROM/Nandroid management app?

How is the performance and smoothness overall? Compared to 4.3? Is it worse, better but not noticeable, better and totally awesome!

OK, fully wiped again. No mods, only signed in. YouTube isn't playing back for me. Only app I downloaded was Netflix, didn't work either. Not complaining, it's early, just thought if give a heads up for everybody. Otherwise the performance is excellent. Can't wait for this to move forward :good:

[SIZE=+2]Specific to
SlimKat Android 4.4 for the T Mobile Galaxy S4[/SIZE]

[SIZE=+2]This thread has been created for people to share issues,
question and help
while using SlimKat 4.4 for the T Mobile Galaxy S4[/SIZE]
PLEASE make sure to thank the entire Slim Team for their dedication to this ROM
Please do not clutter any Development thread with non related development chatter
*
I am not the developer for SlimKat, SlimBean, Slim Fast, Fat Boy Slim, or anything else with Slim in the title.
This is NOT a development thread and as such is designed to be a little more noob friendly than a development thread. Please don't hessiate to ask any questions you have here, but please do try to search first to see if there is a known sollution to your issue before posting a new question about it.
If you have development related bug issue, send an bug report to the Slim team. See post 2 for instructions.
Please see this note from the Slim development team and PLEASE take it to heart!
Please note: SlimKat and KitKat in general is in an early stage. Still some apps are not compatible and still some devices have to fight with smaller issues on the other hands a lot devices are already quiet stable. Whatever please keep in mind that this builds are labled for a reason as beta builds. As a lot slim user know we only tag our builds stable when they are already 100% stable and all features are back. But you will be surprised how stable it is already

Indivudal apps need to be tweaks to run on KitKat. If you have a favorite app that doesn't work, check with the developer of that app first to see if it runs on 4.4 before asking why it doesn't work here. (If it was last updated in February of 2012 or something like that, it hasn't been tweaked for KitKat.). In short, it's probably not the rom's fault.
As of December 8th Blk_Jack is back on XDA with a new thread for Slim Kat!
Click here to view it
That is a development thread. Keep your posts there development related. That does not mean "How come my phone no boot?" or "Thx for this ROM iz smooth like butta!". That means specific issues tht haven't been reported 900 times previously. Search that thread for a similar post to yours BEFORE posting!!!

Reporting Bugs:
The Slim Team has a very specific way they ask that bugs be reported. You can do it right through the bug report feature of the ROM. But do it this way...(This is right from the Slim site. It is the best way to make errors known to the Slim developers)
When you submit a bug you want to make sure that nothing from your side is causing it. Otherwise your developer might be hunting a bug which doesn't really exist. The best way to achieve this is by doing the following.
1. Make a nandroid backup.
2. Perform a full wipe (factory reset + wipe /system)
Now we have two different ways, 3A and 3B, depending on what kind of problem you're having.
3A. When you're having a problem with a ROM function, flash just the ROM without GAPPS etc. and boot back into the system. You will boot directly onto the homescreen.
3B. When you're having a problem with a 3rd party app in combination with our ROM then flash the ROM and GAPPS.
Boot now back into the system. You will boot to the setup wizard.
Log in to your Google account but make sure that you untick "Restore from my Google Account to this phone/tablet".
Finish the setup and open the playstore and download only the app you're having problems with.
Now when you're done with either 3A or 3B proceed with the following:
4. Now reproduce the bug (if possible more than once). After you reproduced the bug go into settings and SlimCenter and click on Bugreport. A bugreport.zip will appear on your sdcard in a directory called Slim.
5. Attach this zip in the correct thread along with your report. Please also write detailed description how we can reproduce the bug.
6. Restore your backup from point 1 and wait for a fix (don't ask for ETAs).

I know the device maintainers have been testing the S4 builds for a couple of weeks now and making improvements among their team. So you're not getting an early Alpha release here or anything.
The maintainer for the international S4 is very active in the i9505 forums and has been talking about SlimKat for a while, saying how stable it already is. That's pretty standard for the Slim team. They do not putz around with releasing buggy builds.
That said I'm sure it's not perfect yet. SlimKat isn't going to be 100% error free just yet and isn't going to help you create sustainable cold fusion or anything like that (yet...). So be prepared for a little wonkiness early on. But if history is any indicator, you can probabyl expect a really nice experience from from teh start.

Running good so far!! Missing some things from SlimBean that I really liked but being in beta they will eventually come. Will be my DD assuming I don't have any issues.

What do you see is missing so far? (I haven't even flashed it yet. I won't have the time for another 5 hours until I get home from work and put my daughter to bed. But I'm drooling with anticipation!)

The main things are all the status bar tweaks (hiding battery and signal bars), no theme engine, quick settings are missing a few things, widgets on the lock screen. All I can think of right now.
Still a very solid rom though. Currently will be my DD.

You can enable the widgets for your lock screen. Only bug I'm confronting is that NFC doesn't turn off some times. I have to click it a couple times through the quick toggles. Besides that, I get FC's with gapps but that's been mentioned before.

ANIMALS!? What's next, do we have to eat our young?!
I kid! I kid! I understand it's a beta. I'm just messing around. It is funny though, I've gotten so used to my orange themed Androids that its a shocking concept to think I might have to use the standard blue for a week! The horrors! :laugh: (Again, I'm kidding. If anyone takes this seriously relax)
I do look at people who love TouchWiz and I can't figure out how they put up with not being able to change the colors. This is like the single greatest feature in AOSP ROMs to me, even more than all the actually important tweaks that make AOSP run so well.

It is funny though, I've gotten so used to my orange themed Androids that its a shocking concept to think I might have to use the standard blue for a week! The horrors! :laugh: (Again, I'm kidding. If anyone takes this seriously relax)
I do look at people who love TouchWiz and I can't figure out how they put up with not being able to change the colors. This is like the single greatest feature in AOSP ROMs to me, even more than all the actually important tweaks that make AOSP run so well.

Exactly! I usually run a purple theme.

There is already an update!
It's called Beta 1.1 Weekly and there is no changelog included with it so I imagine it's just some upstream updates and tweaks since yesterday and not a lot of major improvements. But an update is an update!

So far the beta builds give me trouble booting. I get hung on the splash screen a lot. It akes a bunch of chances to get it to boot. It always eventually works though.
Here's a list of what I've found is missing so far...
Transparent status bar
Dark Slim
Theme Engine
DPI changing in settings (Can probably still do it in build.prop)
List scroll animations
Probably more...
But it's all superficial stuff like this. The 'under the hood' type stuff all seems to work well.

Ditto to that and thanks:highfive:

Been waiting for this ROM since 4.4 dropped. None of the others could do the trick. Thanks!

Let me know if it's all good. Skyrocket I'd so this shouldn't be any different

Car vs driver said CM has a couple of patches that should enable it in the near future and I assume it will be showing up in Slim shortly thereafter.

Initial Impressions
This is just too tempting, so I'm going to play around with this tonight. A few things so far:
1. Have to say the boot animation is just too sweet!
2. I just ran ART and for the first time on a 4.4 ROM it went smoothly (that alone is impressive). I have tried the dialer, voice commands, camera (did not try to record yet, sorry!), Play, and settings with no FCs. Next I'm going to restore my apps from TB and see what happens. Installing apps does take longer as expected with ART but they open lightning fast.
3. After installing and setting up, the ROM froze up a couple of times. After ART installed, so far so good.
4. Those who might be wondering, the ROM can't be themed as of yet but I can live with that if things work & play well together.
I'll report more stuff after I've had a chance to use this and post a few screenshots in a bit. This is a very nice alpha build that could be labeled as beta. No disrespect but @prbassplayer & the SlimTeam seem to be ahead of the game on getting 4.4 going for this phone IMHO. Each build I have tried for CM11 so far has been a nightmare from the get go, and keep in mind I love CyanogenMod as a ROM in general. I'm sure ultimately however they will have 4.4 perfected though. This is no easy task to say the least!

is there any guidelines as how to enable ART? each time i tried, the phone kept updating all the apps, and then f/c repeatedly all the process..

With this ROM it's the same process, just enable it in developer options. The phone will reboot and you will get the usual "android is upgrading, optimizing apps". Takes a while as OP states but things are good after. Like I said, ART just hasn't work on CM11 for me so this a great. Now the next question will be if my normal user apps are going to work. Course I know if one doesn't, it's not the ROM, it's the app's inability to adapt to ART.

[ROM][I317/t0lteatt][KitKat/4.4.4][UNOFFICIAL]CarbonROM[Final](11/22/2014)

I have decided to build an Unoffical build of CarbonROM specifically for the t0lteatt/Samsung Galaxy Note 2 I317. Information about CarbonROM can be found in the official thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2640030 or at the CarbonROM website at https://carbonrom.org/. This is just a build from the official source at https://github.com/CarbonDev with a few of my own edits to allow it to build for the t0lteatt device tree. If you have any questions, or issues, please post them here, or try the official build available at the CarbonROM website at https://carbonrom.org/downloads/?d=t0lte/nightly. I am not a developer or maintainer, but I will try to assist you with any errors you may encounter.
I would just like to say thank you to Team Carbon for developing such a great ROM, everyone who have contributed to the project, and all other great projects which may have a part in making the ROM what it is.
Flashing instructions:
Download both the ROM and a GAPPs (I use PA Gapps, but other GAPPs such as Slim Gapps will likely work as well)
Reboot into recovery.
Full wipe: Wipe cache, dalvik, wipe data/factory reset, clean to install a new rom.
Flash ROM and GAPPs.
Reboot into system.
Enjoy your new Carbon experience.
Downloads:
ROM: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=21020
PA Gapps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942
Have a good one!

Happy to give it a go...
Carbon is a top pick of mine for AOSP...
Many thanks for building this....g

This is a very good ROM, everything works smooth ...thank you

Not really sure why I cant flash this. I'm on twrp 2.8.1.0, T-Mobile note 2.

Unable to flash also on twrp 2.8.0.0 and 4.3 bootloader

I haven't been able to find any definitive reports of problems with flashing from TWRP 2.8. I use Philz and haven't had any issues with flashing this, or any other ROM. Have you had this issue with any other ROM? Have you tried flashing the official t0lte CarbonROM? My only other thought, right off hand, is to try a different recovery, but I know that isn't always such a good option. I'll keep an eye out for a solution and I'll let ya know if I find anything. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
Have a good one!

This ROM is fantastic! On the official builds any theme would cause my System UI to crash multiple times, but not this one!
If you're looking for any requests/suggestions, I have a few:
-Search in Settings
-Disable Menu and Back button haptic feedback when they are disabled (I like it on the navigation bar)
-The battery icon doesn't seem to want to work with Tinted Status Bar Fix: Use Flat Style Colored Bars
-Apps like Reddit Sync don't take account for the navbar, and have the comments behind it, keeping me from reading/interacting
I think that's it! Thank you so, so, much for getting me a great daily driver!

I cant remember if it has an option or not but the ringtone only rings once then vibrated till i pick up i want it to ring always is there and option

Thanks for that synopsis. One of the main reasons I stopped using carbon was because of system ui crashing. About the boot this piece up! Thanks!
In Samsung the word Note 2 is pronounced t0lte.

Carbon source bug I believe...
Try downloading a ringtone of your choice using zedge...or any other free ringtone app....then set your new tone under settings...
That should fix you up...
I usually delete the on board tones anyway...since most of the choices are rather plain to me...
Good luck....g

It is my own ringtone from zedge I used the system ringtones and it works perfectly hmm must be SD card thing

Looks like this may be a one off build. Team Carbon is currently working on porting Lollipop to their various devices, so they've put a code freeze on any KitKat commits other than bug fixes. Only 4 merges were made prior to the code freeze, but these merges don't seem to be overly important for our devices, so they'd likely not be noticeable even if a new build was made. Also, there are reports that subsequent changes to repositories may have broke the build for KitKat, at this time, anyways (I can probably fix this in my build, if necessary). I'll keep an eye on gerrit for any useful bug fixes being merged, but until that happens (if it happens), I'll likely not do anymore builds for KitKat.
Have a good one!

I guess I was wrong about a one off... My final unofficial build of CarbonROM has been uploaded. Admittedly, this build is a minimal update and you may not notice any obvious changes, but there may be some changes behind the scenes that may correct an obscure issue, or not. As always, if you have any issues from a dirty flash, please try a clean flash before asking for help. Thank you.

It would appear that this is supposed to be a "feature" included by Google. In order to remove the "feature", Google's devs would need to decide to remove it. There's been a fair few theories on how to disable the "feature", but none of them seem to actually work, so it would seem if we decide to continue using Chrome, we'll have to deal with it for now.

I just used xfloatingwindows from xposed and black listed chrome and it seemed to work. One more question and I think I've got everything all set. At first I set an app to open when I swipe it left in the notification panel. How do I disable that feature? Overall this ROM is pretty damn smooth, I like it a lot

Been searching and would like to potentially give this ROM a try. Can't find out or not, does this have heads up notifications?
