Check out the full feature list here


100% Built from source


Now using my new AOSP kernel for kingdom which has some of following

- 3.0.101 Linux patch
- ck1 patchset
- Built with Linaro
- Updates from Linux 3.4, 3.9 etc.
- GPU, Video drivers from CAF 3.4
- Temporarily disabled overclocking to track stability issues

Thanks @szezso for using some of his kernel patches





What is not working?

Front Cam
Video Cam
Youtube/Netflix

(Bugs reported by users will be updated here after they are confirmed)



Installation instructions

Download the latest build
Download Gapps
Full wipe and factory reset - Wipe Dalvik
Flash ROM
Flash Gapps
Reboot.
After first boot goes to homescreen, give it a few seconds stuff must load and it will lag a bit during this time

Let me know any issues :D

This build should be way smoother than my carbon release as I'm using my modified tree and a new kernel. I will continue to update this rom.




If you like my work and would like to donate.

I can already say for sure I like this ROM. It has a nice feel to it and a lot more options to make if the way we want if to be. I haven't really out if to the test yet but just wanted to say that for now. Its laggy at first as mentioned but some very good work if seems. Thanks again.
 
Thanks for the great work on the phone. I have only 1 little question. Is it possible to make video cam working on any 4.1+ ROM, or it is too hard to do? I'm nothing know about making android ROMs, but i see that all 4.2+ kingdom roms without property working video camera.
Anyway, thanks again for working on this phone's ROM, that's a hard work, good luck!
 
SMS does not work on gsm
Headphones not working
youtube not working
camera problems
missing FM radio

otherwise very good job, thanks
 
answering a few questions here

FM radio will be back in the next build
Working on youtube and streaming playback
Camera is a work in progress, it will eventually work including video recording
Lights being worked on also

Can anyone tell me if there has been any trouble with reboots or system UI crashes? I've been working on those issues since my carbon release and hopefully they are gone / mostly gone!

Yes I have gotten random reboots and UI crashes now back on your blue Kingdom because of not being able to deal with it waiting for update will try again but all in all awesome work again thank you for all your work and progress on this phone. love you Mann....(not a homo) .....just love your work !!!!
 
working on crashes i believe its something related to phone service

i might have just fixed the lights also

the lag at first is because so many apps are outdated and they lag when updating in the play store, its normal

I've narrowed down where these crashes are coming from, won't be too long now
 
I dont know if its a bug or im just missing a setting but when a plug a headphone or external speakers the phone keeps using the internal speakers.
The phone rebooted twice when using chrome, that is the only crash that i had with this rom so far, good job bro.

bug, im working on it:D
 
All was good until I tried to apply a theme, then just went into a bootloop. Just had to recover. It was a kit kat theme from play store
 
So is this better than bluekingdom ?

Is it quicker?^
Bluekingdom at 4.0.3 1.4Ghz stock, Slimbean 4.2.2 1.2Ghz Stock. Slimbean is quicker or snappier whichever you like to use for improvement.

Is it less laggy?^
I can verify that it is less laggy or smoother vs bluekingdom

Do any1 hav idea hiw to turn off the proximity sensor for this rom
Click to expand...


1. Same here, I can not stand that proximity sensor, utterly useless to me. waste battery life too.

2. Also would like to include that usb mass storage with macs 10.9 does not work. there is an error and a continuous loop loading on the android device trying to connect.

Can someone verify with windows?

3.
a. When making the status bar transparent, the "wifi-logo" appears to have dark colored lines in between the bars of the wifi. Is there a way to make this transparent?
b. Give us the option to change the wifi color too ( doesn't make sense if color is changeable for battery and time/date and not wifi.
 
It seems that long texts won't go through. Don't know the exact character limit. Bit I've had to split them in half in order for them to send properly. Also apps won't restore from my All In One backup. So having to do them one by one. Other than that... Nice, simple, light ROM.
