thanks for the great rom! so smooth and fast!

quick question; how do I disable the navigation ring completely? I only see an option in Rom Control to choose the number of targets in the navigation ring, but can't find a way to completely disable the ring.

---------- Post added at 02:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:05 PM ----------

okay so I've read previous posts on this thread and realized that there's no way to turn the ring off now. I hope there'll be an option to do so soon!

Keep up the great work :) :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cooza:
Do you mean the lockscreen ring mate?. If so then theres no way at the moment.

Keep booting into recovery mode.. help!

Hello, I followed the instructions and flashed Clockworkmod recovery v6.0.3.2. After that wiped everything and flashed Omega v21. Everything went smoothly and it says installation succeeded with a checkbox that says reboot phone, however when rebooting it shows the samsung logo twice and then go into recovery mode again.. if I choose reboot system now it again boots into recovery..

I wiped everything again and installed again, and having same issue.. any suggestions?

thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mark5:
Hmm. You have the right recovery, but the problem you describe is what might happen if the recovery was wrong...but you would expect an error....odd.

Perhaps try TWRP? you need the latest version, which I believe is 2.7.0.0 but check it out here http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/114

Try that and let us know how you get on.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cooza:
The earlier version worked on CWM but this is a newer release with a big chanelog so its possible that CWM isnt going to work like before or at all. I beta tested with TWRP 2.7 and as far as I know so did the rest of the team so as [MENTION=395696]Mark5[/MENTION] posted its best to change to TWRP v2.7 since its know to work and Ill let indie and the fellas know so changes can be made and to the OP page too.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mark5:
I can confirm that TWRP 2.6.3.1 still works for v21 as well.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cooza:
Thanks mate. I flashed earlier with v2.6.3.1 and 2. Just recently flashed v2.7 which is working fine. It May be that the new firmware is based on TWRP.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] iori57:
Thank you guys! I flashed TWRP 2.7.0.0 and successfully installed Omega v21 without any issue :)

Cheers!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] omdatura:
Hello ,

I have flashed V.21 without problems and as as no wipe.

Unfortunately, I get the same bug since the V.20 on the camera app. This bug is disabling the camera after couple consecutive photos that are taken. Then touching the button to take the picture isn't doing anything. The bug gets with when the system cannot access to the camera with the error message that No connection to the camera is possible... I tried to wipe Calvin, cache etc...but the bug is persistent.

Maybe I should do a full wipe but I'm quite lazy in having to reinstall and reconfigure everything...

Anybody have an idea I to palliate this bug ?

Thx in advance.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mark5:
I must admit I get this in and off...about 30% of the time. Sometimes a force kill of the camera sorts it but a soft reboot always does. I have tried several camera apk and the bug is still there :(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] omdatura:
Yeah me too, but can't reboot every time this happens. Tried also different all, but same crap.

Are you on a clean install or you did like me a no wipe installation ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cooza:
This is a bug with AOKP itself. It's been like that for a while. I use other camera apps to compensate until an update from the devs is released with a fix.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] iori57:
Camera keeps crashing

Same here.. camera app keeps crashing till unusable state.. downloaded camera zoom FX (paid) and still having same issue...

Dear my friend !

Should i wipe data if i update from Omega v57|v50.1◄●4.3|4.1.2●►Omega Files|Themes◄● to rom Omega v21 ◄●►AOKP◄●►Android 4.4.2 Kit Kat◄●► ?

I saw ad mentioned that: if from another android version have to wipe data.

But i want to save time reason why i have this question.

Hope i can receive your advice soonest.

I will be happy if i can receive in my email : ngovanlap1988@gmail.com

How about Omega v57|v50.1◄●4.3|4.1.2●►Omega Files|Themes◄● and rom Omega v21 ◄●►AOKP◄●►Android 4.4.2 Kit Kat◄●► ?

Which is better ?

Why is this rom very small size ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mark5:
Full wipe...it is a different Android version and is aokp not Samsung.

Do a titanium backup to preserve your apps and data and then restore after installation and a couple of reboots.

It is smaller because no Samsung apps are included in the base.

Both Roms are great but I encourage you to do a nandroid back up of your 57/50.1 and then try kitkat a few days. If you don't like it you can easily go back :)

---------- Post added at 08:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:29 AM ----------

I am on a non wipe since v16, but like cooza says it is a bug. Tried loads of camera apps and funnily enough the Say Cheese camera has not crashed yet - on me at least!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] blackknjght:
Dear !

Thank so much firstly !

But how about battery quality ?

it is the most improtant with me.

What best rom do you think ?

BTW, do you know sometime i cant find some backup file which i already did it. Maybe it had some interupted ?

GPS issue

Hi Guys,

I'm having issues with the new v21 rom and also had problems with older builds.

When I type an address in google maps navigation it picks the location and shows the estimated time but does not lock onto the correct location.

It bounces around from different areas close by but never locks on. Basically renders GPS useless. Doesn't matter how long I wait it never locks on.

I always perform full wipes through cwm touch and also wipe through rom install.

It doesnt matter where I am it never works, used to always work.

I downloaded GPS Test and it finds 5-6 satellites very quickly and the status circle goes green.

Appreciate any help.

---------- Post added at 02:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:45 PM ----------

I found this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2201668

Which says it's a common problem and that you need to tighten the screws behind the case on the left hand side.

I was assuming that it was a ROM issue.

Will see how it works.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Chris_84:
You can try an app called GPS status. Just start it for the first time until you got a fix and then close it. After that it should always start in the background when you need GPS like in maps. Always got the feeling that the GPS get a quicker and more accurate fix when it runs.

Hi, I'm on 21. Is it normal that contacts app can use only google account ? I cant restore contacts list to my device memory. "Starred i android" is empty.

Also an extremely battery draining. Ive done full wipe before flashing including factory reset and system format.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mark5:
Not sure about the contacts as mine seems to work, but the battery draining might suggest you have a bad flash (which might also explain the contacts issue perhaps)

You could try a non wipe flash first to see if that sorts it or, if not, even do a fresh download and then full wipe, just in case.

You might also try one of the different kernels. Each phone is different and so no specific advice can be given about which to try first... Explore the forum and try them all :) (I personally use Googy, but that's just me)

Let us know how you get on...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] starstrukk:
I am now experiencing the camera app crash and have done all those suggestions recommended but still happens..anybody know if the new version fixes this? Or what app they use that helps this? Thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mark5:
The camera is currently working fine for me on v22 but I know that can be temperamental...

Other than what has been suggested I am not sure what else to add. Did you try some different apps? I had some limited success with a few.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] starstrukk:
Well I'm still on the older version v21 and if the new one fixed it was going to upgrade
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cooza:
The camera is still a bug and can be a pain but if you want to try something else that doesn't have the bug and is also pretty good then you could try Omega Omni ROM. Version v2 was just released and it's pretty damn good. I like the feel of it over AOKP. It's a good performance ROM.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lordtopher:
hi can someone tell me if there is a possibility to activate power savain mode on this rom??an also my facebook contacts does not sync at all, i only have my whatsapp and viber contacts.thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] derfo:
Power saving mode is a Samsung ROM feature I believe that is not present in AOKP. You could manually turn of Sync and Location from the Power Control widget if you are running out of juice.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cooza:
True mate its not there. Closest you will get is in Omega Omni ROM there is a feature called Performance that let's you set CPU settings.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lordtopher:
can you tell me whre the setting is found cuz im a noob and i have search but in vain .how about sync my facebook contacts??i cant do it..even via the sync profiler
[Galaxy S III Android Development] iw2fuah:
Roaming ..

I tried this ROM, everything is fine. I have only one annoying problem; all the time my phone is in roaming mode (I can see R sign) and I cannot use 3G data. I tried other 4.4 ROMs and I have the same problem with all of them. Am I doing something wrong? For all ROMs I followed provided installation instructions. Please help! Thanx.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cooza:
OMNI is a sperate ROM but for FB it may just be a case of wiping data.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lordtopher:
ok thanks one more thing??why the volume is so low??
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cooza:
You can change this normally with a custom kernel.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lordtopher:
can i have a guide how to do it plzz?? im a noob
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cooza:
A custom kernel like boeffla will up the volume automatically and an app from the play store too for more CPU and GPU stuff. Yank555 has an aroma install.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lordtopher:
can i have a link to download the kernel plz?

There is a full list earlier in the thread... Do a search and you should find it (on my mobile so can't do it myself) or search 'kernel' in this forum and you'll find some 4.4 kernels with lots of instructions. I use Googy myself but there are others...

No help for me? :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cooza:
You may need to check and see if your APN settings have changed mate. When I flashed mine got wiped and I had to put them back in manually.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] iw2fuah:
3G

Thank you. My APN setting is correct. When I enable my 3G I face a message of "Data is disabled because of roaming". For an unknown reason my phone is in roaming mode. I flashed several times with full wipes but still I have the same problem!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cih997:
Sorry but I searched this thread and couldn't find any good answer - why camera photo spheres is missing? It used to be built in camera app and now it's gone. Any tutorials how to install this on omega?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mark5:
Use this one... Works brilliantly for me

http://forums.androidcentral.com/ht...-photosphere-easy-install-no-root-needed.html

Note: you swipe right from camera screen to get to gallery screen which has the photosphere viewer in it. Normal gallery from ROM won't view it properly. This should not overwrite your stock camera from the ROM. May not record video well (use normal stock camera for that).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cooza:
It may be from your provider. Give them a call and ask them if you have it on by default. it sounds that way since its the same issue with every ROM you try mate. If thats the problem then get them to turn it off.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] iw2fuah:
In general you're right, but the point is I just flashed stock 4.3 rom and I have no problem with it; roaming is off and 3g is working. This means this is an issue somehow related to 4.4 Roms. Anyway thank you for your help mate.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cooza:
Still call and ask anyway mate. It may be on by default on your call plan. On Samsung ROMs you have the option also to turn it off from your device even if it's on from the provider but AOKP doesn't have that setting since it's not a Samsung based ROM. Best bet is to get them to cancel it if you don't need it anyway to save the issues.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kalda01:
Battery looks very good with this rom. Draining only 2% per hour with WIFI enabled and all location services on.

However, when WIFI off, getting many partial wakelocks for RILJ. why is that ??

Also why isn't the charging led turned on when charging is active ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lordtopher:
Hello i got a problem cuz my battery grain very quickly even if i disable the wifi and gps only 6 hours.. And what about video call?? Can't see this feature?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kalda01:
Also noticed that connecting charger does not wake up device although option selected in ROM control.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cooza:
Charge light is still an AOKP bug but we are just about to test v23 so Ill keep you posted. RILJ locks are modem related so may help in flashing a different one to see what happens there mate.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kalda01:
Thanks, what about other notification lights ? are those all good ? (like SMS or Email pending review ..)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cooza:
Charge light is working now. The sms and other notifications worked for me before any how mate.

Anyone has the link from that other file explorer? Not the es one
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shayraz:
Have the same issue I9300 stock kernel, please also see this thread, where someone may have managed to trace this down in the logs:

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/39566-rom442-aokp-kitkat-i9300/page-11 (posts 101 and 102).

In my Omega AOKP V22, the stock Google calendar notification LED does flash, but when I use Calendar Snooze app instead, LED never flashes but does make the reminder tone at the right intervals.

For stock SMS, led doesn't work. It flashes for 1 second briefly (whether screen is on or off) and never flashes again after that, although it does make the notification sound. Replacing with Handcent SMS, LED does not flash when screen off. But when screen turned on, and then off again from pwr btn without reading/marking-read the SMS, the LED starts to flash.

I use tasker as workaround to create flashing notifications, hopefully this gets fixed in ROM at some point...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cooza:
V23 has a lot of updates. Notification LED is one of them. Charging and messaging is working fine now so worth the upgrade mate.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shayraz:
Hi thanks I downloaded and install V23 in place no wipe upgrade and no change, LED still continues to stay off and never flash. I also tried a full wipe install, same issue. Still need to use Tasker and Secure Settings or Locale to force the flashing of led using /sys/class/leds and this works OK. So I'm sure there is a simple or easy fix here somewhere.

Handcent/Stock SMS and Calendar Snooze notifications have no flashing LED even when directly enabled within the App. On V23 not even stock SMS app LED seems to work. When a new SMS comes in and screen is off, it briefly flashes once and then never flashes again (it is a "quick" flash and lasts less than 1 second. Normally the LED light stays on for half a second or 1 second, but this one is much faster as if it tried to initiate and then is overridden by something).

Could this URL be helpful to a developer?

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/39566-rom442-aokp-kitkat-i9300/page-11

I have not collected the full logs, but another poster wo has the same issue on AOKP has already done this below, I paste verbatim his logs:

"

When not working, set_light_leds function is used twice, the LED appears red, followed by white, but the led stops working:

Quote

D/lights ( 2361): set_light_leds 0xc88b8b 7 1000

D/lights ( 2361): set_light_leds 0xc88b8b 1000 9000

D/AwesomePlayer( 1903): Before reset_l

D/AwesomePlayer( 1903): printFileName fd(22) -> /system/media/audio/notifications/OnTheHunt.ogg

D/LightsService( 2361): Excessive delay setting light: 51ms

..etc

When it works: function is triggered once and the LED notification is white in this example:

Quote

D/lights ( 2380): set_light_leds 0xc88b8b 1000 9000

D/LightsService( 2380): Excessive delay setting light: 58ms

..etc

Hi all, i be back

For all with LED problems, the AOKP devs are working on the problem but i must say it again, the 4.4.2 Roms are not ready at the moment, especially not the settings.

Try a fixed channel (not auto). Also you can try this App
