SlimBean 4.3 Build 1
Ok guys this is the changelog for stable build 1. Finally loosing Beta tags! *cheers*.
We want to thanks all ppl outside which went with us trough the alpha and beta stages with testing testing testing, flashing and reporting a lot to get a first stable release.
IMPORTANT: please read especially when you come from 4.2.2 the
install instructions carefully and follow them!! For the ppl coming from beta stages you can dirty flash but you have to
format system this time due of new DSP manager which is now integrated in the rom and not in the gapps anymore. But you know how it goes....if you run into a problem clean flash ;)
Note: mako user who use a 3rd party kernel need to flash a JWR kernel to avoid the JSS deadlocks on mako, even though the complete rom is JSS base. This is only for mako!!!!!
Note2: grouper and tilapia will receive a weekly and not a stable release due the bootloop problem on fresh installs. Otherwise it is stable. Like before to resolve the bootloop problem when you run into it....wipe dalvik cache and /cache and the rom will boot up. We do not want to mark a rom as stable even when the solution to resolve the issue for the user is easy.
Note3: jf devices have a small delay before we publish them. Stay tuned

4.3 Installation Instruction
After there is a some confusion about how to install 4.3, here is a list of what's
absolutely necessary
- full wipe (means: wipe data / factory reset and format /system)
- install Slim 4.3 ROM
- install Slim 4.3 gapps
- Reboot
Some Clarification for Slim Bean:
- Always full wipe if you came from 4.2.2 or any other 4.3 ROM
- At the moment, just use Slim gapps, there are problems with other gapps atm (incompatible or outdated libs in other actual gapps packages)
- "format /system" in addition to "wipe data factory reset" is needed, some restore scripts could mess up your pretty new installation
- Root access works in another way in 4.3 then it was before. It is disabled by default. If you want to have root access go into your Superuser application or in Settings->Developer options and enable it. Please note as well that currently some third party kernels are around which may break root.
- If you use TitaniumBackup you need to change in settings you backup/restore path to "legacy"
