It may take 15min to boot, that is because OmniROM really does not like the d2.
Had to use OmniROM because using CM as a base would not see my sim card not sure why.
Mobile Networks currently do not work. You can open it, but cannot switch between networks.

Sweet! Downloading now... will post up any issues I may find. Thanks for working on porting this over man, appreciate the work you've put in...

Hope you like it. I've been running this all week now.
Does the phone code to enable 4g wipe data? I rememeber reading that doing a sim 'reset' wipes data (back when people were losing imei's a lot)
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Nope, it access a hidden menu to change out the PRL setting. It defaults to GSM/CDMA. I'm still looking where it needs to be changed to keep it defaulted to LTE/CDMA.
Looks good, is battery life decent on it?
Nice. Is this a One-Time thing you're doing or are you porting every update? I could help on and off with bug fixes.
So far so good. Restored my old MIUI backup (moved to my /0 folder before flashing), had a settings FC on boot and a music FC when adding the music widget, but no issues since. I'll have some more time to play around with it after work. Thanks again for sharing. Hopefully SJ can help iron out some of the smaller bugs. So glad someone ported this :thumbup:

@krazie1 - I have the Zero Lemon 7000 mah battery. My initial run with my kids watching Netflix and Hulu, I was at 3 1/2 days when it hit 1%. I do underclock the kernel to 1184mhz and leave the voltage alone. I have always set up my phone like this.
@StrumerJohn - I would like to rebase it with the latest CM 10.1 nightly and the latest MIUI. I thought I saw Notorius stating that CDMA was broke after 3.6.28. I'm on vacation after tmw for about a week, so I should have more time to set that up. I don't want to say that this is a one-time deal. I always been interested in Android and finally have some time to learn. Depending on my transfer at work, I may not have enough time to keep up. The only major thing as of now that I would love fixed is the LTE/CDMA setting and the front facing camera. I haven't ran a logcat to figure out what's going on with it. But thanks for the offer of help. I will take you up on that.
Is that miuiapnconfig app supposed to work for custom carrier name? Also, anyone know how to get center clock?

@prenedo - Before I added the ERI.xml to the framework-res.apk, I used it to say Verizon Wireless. Everytime it would put VZW in the carrier field, data would get messed up.
K. Yeah, I tried changing it and got a FC, then I went into roaming (I also entered network settings, so not sure what caused it). Nothing that a reboot and a change to the secret menu didn't fix. Still running good. DL'ing some themes now, they seem to apply fine. I get a music FC on reboot, but still haven't tested the music app itself though.

I had no problems with the built-in music app. I use power amp with the viper mod for music.

I messed with something earlier and went into 'digital roaming' and only had 4g as well... A reboot fixed it (you'll have to reenter the phone code to turn on 4g)
Edit: I take that back. I'm unable to send SMS or make calls either (not in roaming and everything looks good with my connection) . I wonder what went wrong. Gonna try a few things and I'll be back.
@hackers, are you signed into a xiaomi account? I wonder if their cloud/VoIP stuff is messing it up? Also, I tested the music app, all works well; it seems the problem is with the widget. As soon as it's added, music FC's. Probably a MIUI bug with this weekly were using.
Edit 2: so playing around in hidden menu (just switching between different network modes) I somehow put my phone into 'digital roaming' again. When I'm on digital roaming, SMS and calls work, when I'm fully connected and 'Verizon' is displayed in the status bar, SMS and calls won't send/receive. Not sure what this means, but hopefully can help narrow down the issue.

I do have a Xiaomi account and logged in. Do not turn on any of their sync problem. I have read with other posts that could cause problems. What you could try is to go into Settings > Mobile Network > Select CDMA then reboot > do the 4636 code to select LTE/CDMA to see if that help. I remember that trick from Notorius' MIUI thread. I have had no issues with calls, sms/mms, or data.

Does anybody else have a problem with their caller ID? I am on t-mobile in the US and sometimes the phone number shows up, sometimes it says unknown. This happens randomly even the same person. One time, their caller id would show up, the other time it'd say unknown.
I'm on Tmobile USA as well and don't have any of these problems.
Maybe try clearing the contacts and sync them again?
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using XDA
I never had caller ID... Though I remember it was one of the "bonus apps" the icon of which was shaped like a gift box.
Given my repulsion to bloatware, I deleted it. Finally, frustrated with the whole lack of caller ID, I finally dropped $6.99 on White Pages Pro (or something like that). Now my caller ID is great and it adds the info if I want to make a new contact. Very nice.
Sent from my HTC One-S (rooted), stock ROM
Got a new one at costco...Same problem..wtf. Can it be the sim card or something? Any ideas?
So this is what I mean about the unknown caller ID problem. Unknown callers with a phone number is not the problem. The problem is unknown callers calling me with no phone number. And these numbers are not blocked. I asked my friend to help me test it for me.

This happens on and off WIFI calling and this is my second One S with the same problem. Kinda annoying because I don't know who to call back if I get a missed call.
I've been having the same problem. I took it back to the t-mobile store and they gave me a new one but after a few days the problem came back. I'm not sure if it's the phone or the sim card.

Yeah I thought I was the only one having this problem. I'm from around the LA area and no I don't have that app.
I also have the same problem. I am in Foxboro, MA. I called Tmobile and they are telling me it's a network issue. Supposed to be resolved in 72 hours. I'll post back with my results.
I seem to be running into the similar issue. I once resolved it by installing the Rooted nandroid available here, it had gone away so I re installed a custom rom but then after a couple weeks it came back? I read thru the forums that's it may have to do with facebook contacts? I'm trying out the new energy rom now, hopefully it clears the problem

Sweet. I factory reset my one s last night and haven't had this problem today. Don't know whether to attribute it to the reset or t mobile fixing their network. Either way everything's good so far.

I tried factory resetting my phone about a week ago but after a few days the problem came back. I'm hoping T-Mobile resolves this problem soon.
Try Factory Reset and also try clearing Cache/Data in the Phone Application Settings if applicable. Obviously, reboot afterwards.
I'm going to assume you are not rooted.
I did a factory reset as well, but still had the problem. I'll try to clear my Phone data/cache first and also try another factory reset today.
I spent an hour on the phone with Tmobile advanced tech support. They think it's a network issue, but haven't figured out exactly what it is yet.
Another thing, when I have Wifi calling on, my caller id works just fine. Really weird.
I did another factory reset today, didn't update any of the apps, basically didn't touch anything and caller id is still not working.
I am also on the latest OTA update. I wonder if that has anything to do with it?
I love this phone, just wish I could tell who is calling me.
So I've discovered a little more from testing this morning. Would be interested to hear if anyone else sees the same thing.
Reboot the phone with Wifi off -> Caller ID works -> Turn on Wifi and Wifi calling ->
Caller ID broken.
Reboot the phone with Wifi off -> Caller ID works -> Turn on Wifi with no Wifi calling -> Caller ID still works.
Looks like the issue might be related to Wifi calling somehow. I'll update Tmobile tech support and hopefully they have some kind of answer.
Ok so after hours of reseting the phone, the settings, wipping everything, re installing the Rom all this over and over, doing nandroid etc... I finally got it to show me the caller ID again.
It was weird because for a while I could get it to show it to me after a new install but then as soon as I'd reboot, It go back to the same thing.
Still confused as far as what is making it hide the caller info. I doubt it's Tmobile network because then I would imagine at least some other phones would have similar issues. then again I don't know because when it started again for me yesterday I was just driving on the road, no settings had been changed (although I had just left my house wifi)
its very confusing
well i am having the same issue. and i have Samsung Galaxy S2. my caller id shows as UNKNOWN

Thanks for sharing. I'm in the bay area in CA. I don't want to jinx it, but I haven't had this problem occur in 48 hours. But I have noticed that it occurs more when new numbers call you for the first time so I don't really know because I haven't had anybody new call me.

Please see CM10.1 Nightly thread for CM10.1 builds. They should now work for CDMA fully.

Hey guys,
Yes, this is built off of the razrqcom-dev-team's repo - so the work is based on many, but mainly nadbalak and Skrilax_CZ for the Photon Q.
I am merely rebuilding their source, and trying to make some modifications which will enable CDMA.

BUGS
Intermittent USB issues (charging, adb, etc) - seems to be caused by charging via AC. Rebooting it resolves it in the short term, working on a permanent fix.
No camcorder (still images work)
LTE signal bars do not show up correctly (although LTE has been reported working)
Some (not all) seem to experience issues with GPS. If you have issues with GPS, please flash the JB soak (thanks for that great guide thedarkness000) and then flash CM10.1. GPS should work now. (I've also heard you can just flash back to stock, get a lock, then flash CM10.1 again...)
Haptic feedback on soft keyboard is not provided when enabled (which it is by default)
While capturing a picture to send via MMS, ensure HDR is deselected - Gallery will cause a force close if HDR is enabled!! (Note - HDR works for normal still photos, just not MMS.)
Update Google Search (manual update), or else any voice searches will fail with FC. Update the app, and it is resolved.
I just threw this together quickly - but one thing I noticed about CM10.1 (vs. CM10) - service comes up right away, no messing around with data menus etc!!!
Changelog
cm-10.1-20130509-UNOFFICIAL-xt897c.zip
Sync from CM source
Updates for LTE signal bars...(Pending testing)
cm-10.1-20130503-UNOFFICIAL-xt897c.zip
NFC menu options/hardware enabled
cm-10.1-20130501-UNOFFICIAL-xt897c.zip
MMS FC fix baked in - reverted commit from CM
Upstream fix from razrqcom team for panel
cm-10.1-20130430-UNOFFICIAL-xt897c.zip
MMS works in both directions, but there is a FC occasionally on sending. Need to triage, it's trivial - the message still sends.
In-call Speakerphone fixed (thanks epinter!!)
cm-10.1-20130429-UNOFFICIAL-xt897c.zip
Re-fixed voicemail (sorry!)
MMS overlay - perhaps helped MMS out?
Roaming options!!
cm-10.1-20130428-UNOFFICIAL-xt897c_userdebug_3.zip
Fixed carrier recognition
LTE signal bars maybe fixed?
cm-10.1-20130428-UNOFFICIAL-xt897c_userdebug_2.zip
liblights fixed - keyboard lights and screen brightness should work correctly now
cm-10.1-20130428-UNOFFICIAL-xt897c_userdebug.zip
Changed from eng-->userdebug
BT fixed
No more red bars!
cm-10.1-20130428-UNOFFICIAL-xt897c.zip
eHRPD & hopefully LTE working
Better MMS functionality, probably still needs work for outbound
Alright guys, enjoy! I've only been running this for a little while, but so far so good. I'm really surprised CDMA data hooks up right away - I didn't have to make any changes, it just worked on first boot!!!
Let me know what you find - I haven't really run this through the full gambit yet.
Also, goo.im was really slow for me downloading gapps... so I provided a few mirrors.
Great!!! Does video camera works? I would like to see some feedback before jumping to this. Thank you so much.
Camera works only for photos.
Downloading now will run it through a few things and let everyone know how it goes there are some things I rarely to almost never use such as bluetooth and lte bluetooth I just don't use and lte I don't have in my area

I'm going to see if using a 3rd party camera app will allow video recording I bought camera zoom fx a long time ago so ill let ya know
Just backing up some apps with titanium backup already did a nandroid backup so I will be installing this very soon!
Update: so far seems pretty smooth slightly laggy at first guessing cause I had all my app installing automatically and running titanium as well. I do see the red thing around the screen from time to time however its not that big a concern to me (yet) also no go on the camera zoom fx working for videos. When you press record it seems to do something but as soon as you stop it is when it just stops responding, I would guess possibly something with the way it saves the videos is the problem? Maybe. Otherwise it seems pretty nice so far. Data connects very quickly and no changes have to be made whatsoever to the network connection setting and you don't have to dial *#*#4636#*#* either that is a big plus. Great work so far I will update with more info soon I'm going to test out the mms and see if that may be working with this build

What would be the difference between CM10 and 10.1, which causes Photon Q not to work with video recording especially on 10.1?

There are a TON of changes in the backend to CM10.1.
As was stated earlier, we probably need kernel 3.4 for cam to work fully.
Thanks for notating this guys, I will put it in the buglist. I thought cam was completely broken, good to know it works for stills at least!!
Camera / camcoder is rewritten in Android 4.2. Most of the "core" issues are shared among the whole platform. So what doesn't work for Razr HD CM10.1 won't work for Photon Q etc.
Is there any lagging issues? Atrix HD has those lagging issues with CM10.1. Good to know data works perfectly. How about mic on speakerphone mode?

Well, I did notice a bit of lag when I first booted up - but I think that was the Play Store restoring all my apps. After that, it really has been smooth.
I just tested phone calls - mic works with or without speakerphone.
Everyone has their own definition of laggy. Whenever I see those dang red boxes it seems the phone is doing something in the background... if this is "laggy" and unacceptable to you, stick with CM10.
This thing is running pretty smooth.
So far I have not been able to get mms working I tried a few different things such as downloading gosms and then changing the mmsc url to http://mms.sprintpcs.com and left the other to fields empty it seemed to work on and off it would download some and not others I had to revert back to the backup as I am waiting for a phone call so I can't test much more today. Other then mms and video recording things seem pretty good and the lag seemed to clear up after google was done restoring my apps. Oh and that red thing around the border of the screen that comes up once in a while is still there but it seems very random when it comes up so not really a bother thanks for the work on this to everyone involved great job!

I flashed this over CM10. Should i have done a full wipe first? LTE toggles seem to work now but LTE itself doesnt connect and phone calls crash the phone process although they still go through. High pitch sound still in the earpiece.
It now lets me select 800mhz radio band (to force roam).. before this would crash the phone info app. Even though i can select different radio bands now they dont seem to connect. Roaming indicator will pop up but service never connects. I have toggled to allow roaming in mobile settings.
Edit: Bluetooth is broken and the clock app randomly crashes while performing unrelated operations.

Dangit, I always forget about MMS. I use Google Voice, so I always tell people to just send pic mail to my email, because MMS is always such a PITA...
I'll see what I can do, but it is a notoriously annoying piece.

I flashed this over CM10. Should i have done a full wipe first? LTE toggles seem to work now but LTE itself doesnt connect and phone calls crash the phone process although they still go through. High pitch sound still in the earpiece.
It now lets me select 800mhz radio band (to force roam).. before this would crash the phone info app. Even though i can select different radio bands now they dont seem to connect. Roaming indicator will pop up but service never connects. I have toggled to allow roaming in mobile settings.
Edit: Bluetooth is broken and the clock app randomly crashes while performing unrelated operations.

I've never experienced the high pitch sound you describe in the earpiece - on CM10 or 10.1.
Also, I never do "dirty" flashes, which it sounds like you have done. I never recommend them... Granted this is my first Android device, it just seems like a bad idea to carry all that over - at least wipe cache/dalvik-cache....
Edit - confirmed BT is dead. Looking into it. As for the clock app, I've set a few alarms and mucked with it earlier today - not one FC. I know you said "unrelated actions" - not sure what that means, but please do a factory wipe.

I tried a dirty flash over CM10 and had the same clock crashing problem. Wiped everything, flashed clean & no problems w/ clock.
The app is now live on Google Play.
Thanks to all my beta testers for helping me iron out the wrinkles. I will still post beta versions here when I have new features that need testing.

Tired of entering your password all the time? SkipLock lets you skip past the lock screen when you're connected to a designated wifi or bluetooth device. When you're at home or in your car, your phone is safe and you don't need to be typing in that damn password all the time. When you're connected to your wifi network, or any bluetooth device, you can go straight to the home screen when you press the power button. You can even have it keep the phone unlocked while you're connected to a bluetooth keychain or headset. As soon as the phone gets out of range, it locks.
This is a public beta. SkipLock is a complete rewrite of Unlock With WiFi. Why rewrite it? This blog post explains the reasoning behind it.
Here are the new features in SkipLock:
Pattern and face unlock supported on rooted devices
Completely redesigned Android 4+ user interface
No background service = less memory usage and more reliable
No status bar icon required (but it’s still an option). Tray-only notifications also an option.
If you have notifications enabled, you can now tap the notification to instantly lock the device
Even more cool stuff coming later
Many of the existing features from Unlock With WiFi will also be in the new app. Some of them are:
Automatically turn off wifi when leaving home
Automatically turn on/off bluetooth
Automatically turn on/off sync
WidgetLocker integration
Lock delay has been removed because Android 4+ supports it natively now
If you have a bug to report, press Bug Report in the app's menu. This will send me some diagnostic information that will help me figure out what's wrong. This is the quickest way to get a response. You may post more general questions in this thread, and I will try to answer them, but bug reports sent directly to me take precedence.
SkipLock requires Android 4.0 or above. Root is required for patterns and face unlock. Only PINs and passwords are supported without root.
SkipLock FAQ
The FAQ is now being maintained on my website.

Seems to work fine on my Nexus 5.
Only tested the WiFi setting though, not bluetooth.
Are there any plans to unlock with NFC too? I should be getting an NFC ring soon and I'd love for it to work with that, so when I grab my phone there's no PIN/password but when others get hold of it it requires a PIN/password.

i would love to do that too, but unfortunately, the NFC reader is not active unless the phone is already awake and unlocked. that goes for most phones anyway. obviously, there are some exceptions, like the moto x.

True, but there are plenty of custom ROMs and even xposed modules which allow you to enable NFC with the screen off or with the screen on and the phone locked.
Still, if it's not something you're willing to add, there's nothing I can do to change that. The app works great as it is.

hmm, that's interesting. maybe i'll look into it when i get a chance.
Installs now.
Will give it a whack when i get home
It works!
My phone was locked and by adding my WiFi network as an exception, the phone was automatically unlocked.
I'll test it out tomorrow when I leave my house and when I get back to see if it re-locks when i leave my wifi network/unlocks itself upon reaching my wifi network.

Is this time limited?
I don't know how you did it, but this works on stock rooted HTC One with pattern lock! Your previous app and some other apps do not, but this one works perfectly! When does this beta expire?
Take my money!
Side note: does not work on nexus7 with CM 10.2 (4.3) pattern always shows even when skiplock notification says its unlocked. Going to submit report from app
Thanks for this! I have missed this function since using HTC One. And will use this on my Nexus 5 when it arrives too

Yes, the S3 supports nfc from the lockscreen on some ROMs
My Feedback
Thank you for this great little software. You can also achieve this with software like lama or tasker. But I dont need such big toolkits. So your app fits perfectly on my device.
Here are my thoughts:
* starting an app when a network is in reach - great for car-users to start their favorite mp3-player etc.
* simple geofencing to re enable wifi/bluetooth
* turning on/off different system profiles (so you dont have to take care of all settings...it´s all build into the os)
Keep on coding!
working great on note 2 4.3 keep it up bro!
thanks for the feedback, guys. good to hear it's working! for those who asked, yes it's time limited. the current version will expire at the end of november, but if i feel that more testing is necessary, i will update the app and extend the time limit.
Sup guys.
Loving the M8--it's gorgeous and functional in almost every way I ever could have wanted.
However, I'm finding that using MMS has been kind of a pain. Coming from a gnexus up to date with cmod, I never had any problems with group texts over MMS, but it's been a source of annoyance on the M8. I started off using Hangouts, only to find that I got the annoying "tap to download" message on incoming texts to the group, and even with that, I realized that the MMSes delayed significantly (like five to ten minutes).
I've now switched to the HTC messages app, but it's not ideal either. Group texts arrive on time, but they also show up as individual texts before the app organizes them into the group. In general, I also just prefer using the Hangouts app and having all my messages (Hangouts, SMSes, and MMSes) in one place.
Anyone else running into this problem? It's a pain.
I had similar issues with receiving MMS, it had something to do with the APN settings. Do a search for VZW APN on Google and you should find a solution.

if i uninstall Hangouts will I lose my existing messages? i'm assuming yes. and since i'm rooted and backed up all my messages via TB (xml) I wonder if this is part of the issue.

Open the Verizon messages app and back up all of your sms just in case. It's actually kinda handy for a Verizon app.
Your sms xml should have zero effect on your outgoing network traffic. Several people who reported an issue are using a different kernel and flashed the newest update. It could be that or the combo of the two.

Download scrosler's stock ROM, clear cache and dalvic, then install it. Use titanium backup, or other app to remove hangouts. If you have XForceEnter Xposed mod, disable it.
If none of that works, throw your M8 into the wall... LOL!
Just kidding. Don't do that.

Ok I am going to make it Abundantly Clear. So there is ZERO I mean ZERO CONFUSION.
What this is NOT -
This is not a Weekly. This is not Stable. If you are looking for either, you are in the wrong thread.
This is Not a Daily Driver. If you are looking for one, go to SlimKat Thread.
This is not Fully Functional Picture Perfect Rom. You do not get to Complain and call names on the thread if you expected anything else.
This Build does have bugs. Those that are known to me are listed Bellow.
What this is -
This is an Early Alpha Build. To those who don't know, that's prior Stage of a Beta or Weekly Build.
Its a Preview of things to come. If you notice, my list of Features is lacking quiet a few of Slim Features.
Yes there are bugs. The ones I do know are
Root does not Stick. See Notes Bellow.
Stock Camera clicks but does not take pictures. When you switch to Video Mode, you'd get error "Unable to Connect to Camera". Afterwards you have to reboot to clear.
Some of the 3rd Party Camera Apps work. For Ex. Open Camera, VivaVideo
APN Menu does not show any of the APNs for at least Sprint Variant.
When connected to WiFi, MMS are delayed. Only seems to affect D2VZW.
NOTES -
This is a D2GSM Build. So it is equally applicable to D2ATT as well as D2TMO.
You must Flash SuperSU [STABLE][2015.01.20] SuperSU v2.4.5 as a Zip file along after flashing Rom.
If you posted a bug/issue not listed above, without a Logcat, I will ignore it.
Unless specified otherwise, do not dirty flash on top of SlimKat or Other Roms. If you did and then complained even with Logcat, I will ignore.

Just in Case.

I was sidetracked with some things in life, lovely snowstorm, and I'm a little slower than others with my bug reports BUT I have been running this the entire time since I posted. Hold onto your butts.
For the most part, SlimLP Feb 7th build has been running well for me. I clean flashed (wiped system and data) and am using the VRBMF1 firmware with VRUDNE1 modem. Also, I flashed SuperSU v2.45. Quick breakdown on what works/does not work. Calls, sms, MMS, 3g/LTE all work for me. What does not work: stock camera (known Lollipop issue) and GPS. I have not been able to test Bluetooth nor NFC. Long winded version follows!
Calls: I live in an area with low signal and I had no issues with calls 5 mins to a few hours. I did not notice any issues talking over the phone. Incoming and outgoing calls work fine. I often talk on the phone with Skull Candy earbuds and I did notice that I cannot adjust in-call volume. It just doesn't seem to decrease for me.
Sms/mms: sms mostly sent fine for me in a range of locations including the DC metro. Initially, sending mms seemed to take a few minutes but over the course if a few days I think it sends in a consistently normal amount of time. Receiving mms is working well.
GPS: Never seems to lock on for me. Perseus you know this from my beta testing. I can get an initial lock however it does not follow me as I drive nor does it consistently lock in while navigation was running. There were a couple times when GPS locked onto me after I had driven 10-20 mins down the road with navigation just running. I tried rebooting, reflash, wiping caches in recovery, and I also use GPS Test to see if satellites ever lock but they never did.
Audio: works mostly fine but there were times when I noticed ringtones/notifications would not go off because they had reset. For the most part, ringtones and notifications rang whenever they needed. I also noticed that sporadically, my alarm or audio when watching a video clip (say a vine or instagram in the browser) would play just static instead of the appropriate audio. The most jarring was the alarm having this occur once, however it is not easily repeatable nor is it consistent. This occurred for one alarm in a 9 day span, but this occurred more frequently when watching a video in the browser or app. For reasons that should be clear, you are most likely to observe this if you view many random clips or videos in apps whereas your alarm likely only goes off once a day so it's less likely to occur with the alarm. I have a hunch that this may also be tied to the issue of ringtones/notifications being reset sporadically because after noticing this audio static issue, I think this is when I noticed my notifications or ringtone were not playing. If I reselect notifications/ringtones, I don't think I noticed the lack of ringtone/notification sound again on a text or call until the next time I had the random audio static bug.
Odds and ends. I less 4 random reboots over the span of 9-10 days on this build. I usually when 25-40 hours between reboots or manually initiated reboots. Three days ago I flashed BMS beta kernel from Feb 3 and I have had no change in issues since flashing. Your mileage may vary with custom kernels. Root apps work for me. I use Light Flow, Titanium Backup, ES File Explorer, BetterBatteryStats, and Wakelock Detector with no issues. Lastly, I restored texts from a previous build of SlimLP and I restored about 20 apps using Titanium Backup.
I want to say that is everything I have noticed since flashing this build. My bad for the delay for anyone who was waiting on my reply.
Edit: One more thing. I edit my build.prop to enable the Lollipop soft keys and also to switch the capacitive back and menu keys. I have done this on each and every beta release and I have no issues with any of these edits nor with muktasking. These all work perfect for anyone who likes to make these specific edits like I do.

Just to chime in on gps, it works flawlessly for me. I have been testing these alphas for awhile and GPS has been great so it may be somewhat device specific. SlumsnoopOS, I'm also in the DC area. Do o you get good gps on slimkat? Also does mms seem to come in if you are connected to wifi? For me, if I'm on wifi it won't come until I get off wifi. Finally, occasionally I get a weird android phone FC that repeats until I reboot, like it's trying to connect the radio and it keeps failing, never happen to you?

Ironically enough, it's perfect with the same firmware/modem combo on KitKat. I must admit that I haven't tested on just VRBMF1 firmware or VRBMF1 firmware/VRUCML1 combo. Which modem do you have installed?
If I don't have mobile data turned on, I do not get notifications for MMS. However, I always keep my mobile data enabled while on wifi so I get notified about MMS as they come in. Old habit that I have from SlimKat cuz I don't get MMS when data is not enabled, which is in contrast to TW.
Surprisingly no, I don't get any FCs despite all that I have restored with TiBu lol SlimLP has been rock solid in that regard for me. Btw, I'm adding one edit to my last post about build.prop edits.

I'm on ne1 modem with mf1 firmware. Maybe I'll try an older combo and that will fix the phone FC thing. Not sure on gps for you, it's weird that it works for me...

Yea, I have no clue either. I've since flashed just the VRBMF1 firmware and then VRUCML1 modem and GPS just never finds me on any modem. That's with multiple reboots and even pulling the sim card I can get one general lock but exiting the GPS status app and toggling GPS again loses me. It's not a permanent lock. I think I recall doing this before and just couldn't figure it out.

You getting camera and video recording to work? Anyone? Using Viva video and open camera? If so do I need to freeze camera first?

Can Someone Do me a Favor ? Do the following.
1. Install Syslog app and grant Root Access.
2. Reboot and then immediately launch Stock Camera. Turn on the Video Mode.(Yes I know it will have error)
3. Grab a Log out of Syslog, It will zip the 3 files (KMSG, LAST_KMSG and Logcat) Post that zip.
Thanks in advance.

Since you flashed firmware as did I, I don't know why this is necessary, but who am I, maybe going back to TW as usual might fix the GPS lock issue. It's seems to have fixed it for me on AICP. I can't wait to try slim agian, and RRO layers. But I'm happy where I'm at the the moment because my phone is my DD and needs to stay that way.

The S3 is no longer my daily driver, but I still have it so I tried out your latest SlimLP build (5.1.1). Everything seems to be working. WiFi, GPS, Bluetooth. I can't comment on cell signal since I don't have Verizon anymore. Stock camera (the one packaged) works now. It's still a bit buggy but I remember it being unusable before so this is a major improvement. Video recording and front facing camera both seem to work fine. Camera will hesitate when flash is on but eventually takes a picture. Way around that is to touch focus first before taking a shot. Sometimes the camera freezes but if you exit the app and re-enter it works again. I certainly did not do any extensive testing so YMMV.
Oh, also the splash screen is FUBAR. Not sure if it's supposed to be like that lol.
Besides that it's snappy and smooth like I always expect from Slim. Thanks for the build!
I'm gonna give this a test but I'm having a hard time finding the gapps. Which section is the slim lp gapps in? Thanks!
