As many of you may know Slimbean is one of the most popular ROMs out there and the team has released the last stable until Android 4.4, on top of that our device maintainer is MIA and busy with real life.
I noticed 2 issues in stable 2 that prompted me to take this masterpiece the slim team as created for us and fix them, I take no credit for this :) the bugged back animation (this made me dizzy) and returning to stock DPI causing the Google services framework to frequently disconnect that made it into stable build 2 are resolved in this ROM, I also ship the ROM with a stock minimal GAPPS package that will allow the apps to be properly updated in the market :) Everything else is butter ;) I take no credit for this! all the credit goes to the slim team
For a full list of ROM features, see this chart
Other changes I made to make this my personal daily driver build...
-Stock S3 DPI
-Changed default notification sound and ringtone
-CM alarms, notifications and ringtones

-Lockscreen unlock and lock handles are once again default AOSP
-Default AOSP walpaper on boot
-Stock Nexus boot animation
-Official Google Keyboard

-Inverted MMS by default - Look at the app settings before posting questions ;) Mark read, etc is all there
-Added clock widget from CM 10.2 (System/app)

Install Instructions
-Full wipe (Caches, system, etc.)
-Install ROM
-Flash GAPPS provided
-Reboot
-Enable root in developer settings
Q) Root doesn't work! (4.3 only)
A) From a clean build you need to enable root access for Superuser itself. This is different from 4.2.2 in which Superuser by default had root access on a new install. To do this, go toSettings -> Developer options -> Root access. If an app attempts to request root access before Superuser itself has access, it may cause problems with that app in the future where root requests are silently denied.
Instructions to enable root on Android 4.3
Open Settings>about
Tap on the build info 7 times to enable dev settings
open developer settings and enable root (select Apps + adb)
enjoy
WIFI connection problem?
anyone having issues with WIFI should check the region code in Wifi advanced setting (Settings>Wifi>Advanced)
