Root [ROM] Sleipnir v2.4.0.5 - 10/24/13 - VM & SPRINT

MSL isn't gonna help with anything besides putting the phone in DIAG mode and for programming things. Which I really doubt you'll ever need. xD Rooting and recovery is simplified so much for this phone. Just 3-4 simple app downloads from the FAQ-Guide and running them and then you're good to go to install a ROM but always be sure to backup first before installing!

Pretty much. However, it is always useful to have the phone's DIAG mode enabled just in case you need to Uber Factory Reset.

i appreciate your modesty but the rom is awesome.

i'm not a techie guy... i'm not afraid to open up a terminal and edit some command lines or something and i can put together a desktop box from scratch... but that's about where it ends. i don't have the aptitude for the programming side and i'm always awed by those who do.

so what if there's a few bugs? that's the nature of technology. i'm primarily an apple guy... for over 30 years now... and those things are buggy as hell.

the fact that someone like me can read the instructions and the faq's and get the thing to work the 1st try? that's a testament to your skills not the limited ones i have.

beyond that... you're involved and always polite and friendly and who could ask for more than that.

in the end... as far as a consumable... all i know is it works, my phone is better for it.. i enjoy following the progress of the rom and i probably won't get a new phone until you do... because i'm excited to see what you come up with next...

a buddy of mine with the same phone was about to drop a bunch of $ on a galaxy or something and i convinced him to let me put the rom on there and tweak it a bit before he went and spent all that cash and that was 90 days ago and he loves the phone and unless he's lying i think he has no immediate plans to replace it.

so thanks again.

Made. My. Day.

Just sayin' :D

EDIT: I went ahead and posted the Android version for both Hydra and Sleipnir both in their OPs, right under the Current Build section. Additionally, there is now a little diagram on the OP, for essentially no reason other than for funzies! :)
 
Quick question.

Ever since I flashed Sleipnir, I haven't been able to send or receive MMS messages. I made sure I flashed the Sprint version and I can receive them on applications like Voxer, but not in MMS. I've wiped cache and dalvik cache and fixed permissions, and such. Any ideas?

Great ROM all in all. Only bug for me is that if I am connected to my laptop via usb, I get a message when I toggle the status bar saying, "with one more failed security code, all the data..." I googled it and it seemed to pop up in the Aeneas Build thread but I couldn't find a fix. Any ideas?

I didn't receive any responses so I'm just bumping this up. Anybody have any ideas or can someone at least tell me if this is something to be concerned about? There has been no sign of any negative affects, at least to my knowledge.

I remember having that on earlier roms but I thought it was patched on Sleipnir. It's nothing to be concerned about though, just ignore it.

Sounds like an apn faux pas. Try restoring your back up, download apn back up and restore from market, back up your apns from your working set up. Reflash Sleipnir and if you have the same issue again download apn backup and restore and restore the apns. Reboot and profit. Hope that helps.

Not being able to send MMS from the stock black MMS.apk was known, but a poll showed that people preferred to have that one anyway. There are much better performing SMS/MMS applications out there, especially since this one is outdated, but I've considered just themeing the stock one if I can and that presents no issues - or just using the stock one in general. now there is a poll up, above the OP, round #2 for the MMS.apk. :)

Sounds like a bad flash - that was an old bug in Harmonia and Aeneas that was corrected, but carried over to ICS Elite's SystemUI.apk if I remember correctly, but this should have been fixed in earlier builds of Sleipnir, including v2.4.0.2. In fact, I haven't seen it since it was patched - I would try re-downloading and re-flashing. While there are no negative effects that we know about, it certainly is weird and makes one wonder what else might not be quite right.

Whenever I reboot the phone, I lose the default notification sounds i have set. The files don't disappear, the settings just switch to Silent and I have to set it back to the sound I want. Very minor bug, but wanted to report it anyways.
 
I have had no problems using UOT to change some colors in the status bar, but today I have gotten errors everytime i try to use the kitchen. Im not sure why its happening now, nothing has changed. Maybe someone can figure it out by looking at the error log from UOT.

Images are missing during the compiling process it looks for all things associated with the resources, images, xmls etc. If stuff has been altered by just removing and deleting without a proper decompile/recompile ...it'll throw thise errors.

UPDATE:

It's not exclusive to reboots. If I enable mass storage (mounting on my computer) it changes as well.

Is this issue known? I'd like to know that this has been seen and that someone is aware of it.

You could put the .mp3 file in to /system/media/audio/(Put the file in the folder of what you want it to be e.g a ringtone would go in to /ringtones) then reboot

1. That's awesome. 2. It looks awesome. 3. I want you to know that I will actually be using the links from your thread with helping to theme Sleipnir myself, too, for the graphical overhaul that is being worked on. :D

Both of those issues are unique. If wiping the dalvik-cache and /cache in CWM doesn't fix things, I would try reflashing Sleipnir, making sure to verify the MD5Sum.

Also, what does everyone think of the Table of Contents? Is it useful, or not so much?

Thanks. Was just toying with some things. I'm actually holding out on doing anything significant till you're update is released. Im looking forward to seeing what you do graphically. Good work on your rom. Looking forward to your future endeavours. :thumbup:
