Rules for inquiring a subject matter concerning this project are:
1. Read the OP fully.
2. For bug reports, we need a log to assess the issue. Capture a log while replicating the issue.
3. Do not ask ETA's on updates; you will be ignored.

5. Only ask a question about this project. Any questions about another ROM or project will be disregarded.
6. You don't like our OctOS symbol. Too bad.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why isn't there XXXXXXX feature.
A: Shoot us a Suggestion if you want to see something added. While we are not going to promise to implement, we will always look into it
Q: But CM and all the others have..
A: ROM developers, including CM, build something they want to use. The ROM dev that includes something they won't run implies less than 100% effort to ensure it does work. As a team, we have similar goals and objectives. If XYZ ROM has a feature you want, and we don't (or don't want), feel free to use XYZ ROM, or build your own custom version of Octo-Kat

A Note about the Team OctOs GApps
We in Team OctOs believe in choices. We believe in leaving the fundamental decisions about your phone to you.
In that spirit, Team OctOs gives you options for your GApps experiences. While any ODEX'ed GApps package should work, we offer you the choice of using some of the same GApps packages that we use ourselves, and leave the choice up to you.
You can find our Team OctOs GApps packages here, and break down into the following types:
GPe - Google Experience
Regular GPe GApps
Dalvik-Enhanced GPe GApps
AOSP
AOSP GApps
Dalvik-Enhanced AOSP GApps
The Dalvik-Enhanced packages are NOT ART compatible. If you plan to run ART, don't use those.
We will only update the thread with Stable Releases, whenever possible. This means that the thread may be behind non-milestone releases. If you have an issue with compulsive flashing, or feel the need to live 'life on the edge of brick', we invite you to follow us on Facebook and/or Twitter. Any dailies that can be released, we will release there. Please note, we pull these releases after a day or two, so if the latest link posted there is empty, simply wait until the next one.

First!!

What's with that copy(dot)com link you got in your post? Leads no where. But I found the gapps link, maybe it's just a misedit.
Edit:
..... lol

This definitely is a ROM to watch. Does this use CM base or did you guys start with pure AOSP? I only ask because of some known camera bugs in CM.

The only CM was the start of device trees but the Cyanogenmod specific parts has been removed. So you can say this rom is only about 1-3% Cyanogenmod

Translators Needed!
We are currently looking for translators to help localize OctOs into other languages.
Many of the main ROM components are already translated (built-in), but anything that we've changed or added won't be. Currently, we are "English predominate" speakering team, but many of the users may not be!
If you would like to help bring OctOs to your language, check out: https://crowdin.net/project/team-octos-octo-kat-android-ro
You can sign up as a Translator and then start translating the OctOs project. This makes it easy to identify and translate the individual strings.

Everything in this rom works great, lots of options and seems stable. The only bug I seem to have found is the front facing camera lags with snapchat. Ive seen this in a few roms so far but who knows. Great work otherwise, thank you.

Those are the KK rom issues I was referring to. Seems to be the CM camera wrapper.

About " Slim is Dead "
I put this Posting in the OP and change the Thread Titel so all can read it and i hope this stops the asking and the Questions.
We read in the last weeks many times questions, statements, about SlimRoms when it goes on or is Slim Dead.
To clear it.
We write in the last weeks many Times taht we have a lot of changes done, Team Intern , Personnel, software, hardware. These are all things that need time / have needed. Completed about 90% of the process.
People ask why nothing happens in the Gerrit.
We changed the whole system and you can find the Gerrit now here
you can see, we working hard on 5.1
People ask what happens with the Slim Homepage
You can finde the new HP here
please note, the HP is under construction and not finished.
You can be sure , SlimRoms is anything but just not dead,, many things need a lot of time, I would like and can no release date call for the next update, but I can say that it will not be long.
In this sense,
Greetings
Tylog ( Team SlimRoms )
SlimRoms is a custom android operating system. The main goal is to offer users a slimmed down but still feature rich alternative to other android operating systems.

A few words about the current standing. It was Christmas , New-Year , Holiday Time. After this we had to do in the last few weeks some organizational, server relocation, team structures, and more. Most of it is done. Pending Weekly's are started I will every Sunday evening an Official Build upload. Start, Sunday 01-February. I Post the DL Links allways in the Thread and here in the OP.

About to flash, making a nandroid first and then I'll report back.
edit: After I wipe and flash the Nexus 5 just keeps booting into recovery :/ Going to assume it may be a TWR issue.
edit2: Fixed my issue by installing faux kernel on top. It seems the boot.img included in the ROM may be broken.

Sounds like the issue that was on the N4 when we all lost baseband when TWRP was on v 2.6.0.0. Is there another recovery you can use?

OctOs GApps packages here​-Do Not Mirror our files without talking to us. We can do that ourselves should we desire to.-​
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why isn't there XXXXXXX feature.
A: Shoot us a Suggestion if you want to see something added. While we are not going to promise to implement, we will always look into it
Q: But CM and all the others have..
A: ROM developers, including CM, build something they want to use. The ROM dev that includes something they won't run implies less than 100% effort to ensure it does work. As a team, we have similar goals and objectives. If XYZ ROM has a feature you want, and we don't (or don't want), feel free to use XYZ ROM, or build your own custom version of Octo-Kat

A Note about the Team OctOs GApps
We in Team OctOs believe in choices. We believe in leaving the fundamental decisions about your phone to you.
In that spirit, Team OctOs gives you options for your GApps experiences. While any ODEX'ed GApps package should work, we offer you the choice of using some of the same GApps packages that we use ourselves, and leave the choice up to you.
You can find our Team OctOs GApps packages here, and break down into the following types:
GPe - Google Experience
Regular GPe GApps
Dalvik-Enhanced GPe GApps
AOSP
AOSP GApps
Dalvik-Enhanced AOSP GApps
The Dalvik-Enhanced packages are NOT ART compatible. If you plan to run ART, don't use those.
We will only update the thread with Stable Releases, whenever possible. This means that the thread may be behind non-milestone releases. If you have an issue with compulsive flashing, or feel the need to live 'life on the edge of brick', we invite you to follow us on Facebook and/or Twitter. Any dailies that can be released, we will release there. Please note, we pull these releases after a day or two, so if the latest link posted there is empty, simply wait until the next one.

Translators Needed!
We are currently looking for translators to help localize OctOs into other languages.
Many of the main ROM components are already translated (built-in), but anything that we've changed or added won't be. Currently, we are "English predominate" speakering team, but many of the users may not be!
If you would like to help bring OctOs to your language, check out: https://crowdin.net/project/team-octos-octo-kat-android-ro
You can sign up as a Translator and then start translating the OctOs project. This makes it easy to identify and translate the individual strings.
Alright, a new toy to play with. Thank you to the team for your time and effort. Downloading now, will report any bugs if I may find any.
Only thing i've found was that when attempting to change notification LED settings, settings itself crashes. Besides that everything is good to go. Had a facepalm moment however when I 'discovered' the advanced settings menu lol. Great work on the rom, I do believe i'll be running this one for a while.
Almost forgot the logcat, here is a full logcat from around the time it happened. Looks like actual crash is around line 60

So far this is working like a dream. This is my first Kitkat experience and im loving it. I'll report any bugs I find, thanks again! :good:
What is the difference between the GPe gapps and the AOSP gapps?

GPe GApps include the Google Experience (meaning more).
AOSP GApps is a barebones GApps set that allows you to add only what you want from the Play Store.

For those curious about battery life, I'm averaging about 14 hours with 51% remaining at the end of the day. And I'm a pretty heavy user.

Here's a quick snap of my usage all day today so far

Just wondering, has anyone changed the runtime to ART and checked apps/battery/responsiveness? Loving this ROM btw! :good:
I want to try ART but I'm thinking not all of my apps will work with it.

I believe those 2 issues are known and currently being looked at, I think the gapps download option will be removed in the near future.
The Download GApps is part of the new (yet to be working) OTA system. Yes, it'll FC for now
We've had reports of Forward/Reverse lookup in the dialer also not working, this appears to have started with the jump to 4.4.4 - We are looking into it. Thank you for the reports!

Just wanted to welcome our new users and am glad we can offer you our ROM. Enjoy!
Maybe I did something wrong not sure, at first I was hesitant cause I use philz recovery, & op in red letters says only use twrp, anyway, I flashed twrp image, full wipe in twtp & flashed rom, gapps, rebooted & started to set up. I looked inside the zip before I flashed to see if theme chooser was there, it was. But once the rom booted up & I started setting up, no theme chooser. I could see it if I went to settings, apps, all. What gives? Any ideas.

Here's a good place to start for CM12 themes.
https://plus.google.com/u/0/communit...86113315228704
****Please Understand that the CM12 Theme Engine is in its early stages and some things may not work or function as they should. Use at your own risk and don't complain about themes in this thread. Our Team has worked really hard to theme this ROM the way we like it....The CM team has to get their theme engine bugs worked out, we are just happy to have it in there to play around with for now.....ALSO, please don't ask us about anything to do with xposed framework as Validus does not support xposed. Use it at your own risk and please don't report ANY bugs you may encounter while using it.

Yeah that worked, thanks.
I saw a couple other things. This first one might be a CM bug, BBS says WiFi is using battery even though WiFi is turned off. Second the the font is black for the options.
I don't have that problem with WiFi. The team knows about the black text.. Not that big of an issue.. Concentrating on 5.1
