No you are wrong...this is what Indie tells to do...look in 1st post or/and post 2543

New version Omega v5.0 Jelly Bean 4.2.2:

Based on firmware XXUBMEA Android 4.2.2 (Date: 30/05/2013)

New:

Stock Kernel XXUBMEA

csc multi I9505OXABMEA set to BTU

Added:

Six Omega Wallpapers to Wallpaper Chooser

Mods:

TW Launcher with scrolling wallpaper

CRT Off effect (available at Omega Files Pro and Free)

Updated:

All apps updated to the latest version

Rom is Deodexed + Rooted + Zipaligned

Rom is No Full Wipe

Omega Files:

Omega Files Pro:

xda's support thread for suggestions and feedback!Direct Links Download Links for v5.0 added to Omega Files Pro

Update repo to Omega Files Pro to get the updates for v5.0

Please read the following before flashing v5.0:

Backup:

Make sure to make and keep in a safe place an efs backup - nadroid backup - titanium backup - etc, in case you ever need to restore!

Installation Instructions:

1. Backup all your app and data so you can restore them to Omega v5.0 (I use Titanium Backup)

2. Make a full wipe (Data, System, cache, dalvik Cache) from recovery then boot to download mode immediately and flash Stock I9505XXUBMEA with odin

Get the firmware from here.

Flashing stock XXUBMEA is needed to make wifi work. Many users reported that it took them many flashes with odin to make wifi work on stock firmware.

3. Make sure all are working ok with stock XXUBMEA firmware, check if wifi + LTE (if your provider supports LTE) are working ok

4. Flash TWRP Recovery with odin, get it from here

5. Boot to TWRP Recovery and flash Omega Rom.

Wipe data from recovery is not needed, wipe your data only if you want to.

5. If LTE is not working flash this zip: I9505_Enable_LTE.zip

PLEASE FOLLOW THE EASY INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ELSE YOU WILL HAVE VARIOUS ISSUES!

csc:

Multi csc is now included in Omega

Some more feedback after few hours of use:

The ROM is super stable and fast!! I can't judge the battery yet for any improvements but that's ok. Im thinking that the TW Lock Screen Wallpaper issue may be related to 3minit (which works great btw!)...

Overall, I think it's a HUGE improvement from version 3.1 and the BEST Rom for the I9505 out there! :good:

For AT&T i337 owners wanting to run this ROM.

For the record. I flashed Omega 5 over 3.1 without wiping data. Using TWRP.

1. Reboot into TWRP recovery.

2. Install 5.0

3. Install AT&T kernel.

4. Reboot and open camera.

5. Reboot into TWRP recovery.

6. Install custom kernel.

7. Reboot.

Ok so after a few issues I have it running pretty much as I want it now, faux kernel, 3 minit framework, crt off, I notice one problem, when I try and set the lock screen wallpaper from the home page I get TW force close, it must be something to do with the mods as I was able to set it initially before I installed the mods but I do not want to go through everything again as I have been working on it for hours now, I can set it from Gallery, just wondering if anyone else has this issue??

Seems as if the camera is not fully functional for other non international 9505 variants... US Tmo etc.

No, I have yet to install Omega... I tried this on wanams ROM, with Faux's kernel last night. Looks like we may need to wait for a Tmo specific kernel for this new firmware to function 100%.

Thx again for checking!

Which update do you mean mike? I have the latest. Going to re-flash the rom and test before I install the faux kernel and the mods.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Hoggles:
I don't think there was a 4.0...

Read the OP....especially if you have an actual i9505. If you have another variant of the 9505...m919 for example....you'll want to make sure you flash a specific kernel for your device (Faux's unified kernel etc).

The key is to make sure you flash the proper kernel right after ROM install, before rebooting.

A little info in on what device and what carrier you're with would help people help you ;)

Hi Bald.... So, specifically... your dual/spilt camera feature is working 100%? As Mike mentioned...normal pics and 90% of the features work...but not dual camera.

Maybe its just a Tmo specific issue? Your SIG says 3.1...I imagine your on 5.0 correct?

So is everyone having wife issues after installing v1.0 or am I mistaken.?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] zige:
I have used new build about 12 hours and i dont find any bugs which indie dont know. Only bugs is NFC payment not working and LTE isn't showing at options and isn't working (even when stock MDE it's work and my operator supports LTE) and someone doesnt have wifi working.

It's smooth as possible. At this point any rom is little bit lagging because Samsung has coded firmwares bad...

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] zige:
You are mistaken, somehow. There is two weird things. Those people which have wifi issues, they have working LTE but these who dont have working LTE option have working wifi (like me). See screenshots.

And i will say again that my operator support LTE, because someone will say again that it isn't showing on me because i my operator dont support LTE, even when it supports :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] jody04c:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] zige:
No offence to you but couple guys is reported also that wifi WORK! as you can see also from my screenshot. Calm down man, there is reported that someone has working wifi and someone dont have. Those which have working wifi they dont see LTE option on settings and those who dont have working wifi they see LTE. Please mate, read couple pages back :) I know this weird issues and i think that indie also know. I dont know indie but what i have followed indie's work i think that he is trying to get solution and fix.

At this time on me wifi is working but LTE is not. It's little bit sad because i need more LTE than wifi and i dont care if i dont have wifi but i have LTE. But i have wifi but not LTE.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Dayiqb08:
just a request for future builds (I know this can take some time but just for you to have it in your head) is it possible to make Apps2Sd possible?

I bought a 64gb microsd along the phone in good hope that I could use this space to store heavy games, just to get disappointed finding out that only media files are possible to save directly (and other files of choosing ofcourse) but not run games/apps directly from the sd card.. This for me makes the sd card useless! I dont really take any photos and use spotify for my music :laugh: if there is any possibility for apps to be stored and run directly from the external sdcard this would be AWESOME AND HIGHLY APPRECIATED !!!

But ofcourse this is only a request for you to have in mind for future builds and I am aware this can takes weeks and up to months or maybe not come at all!

Thank you for your work once again!!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] cliveke:
WiFi working...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Dayiqb08:
Some network operators(or maybe all) need a speical simcard that SUPPORT 4G, if you have had lte before flashing this could be rom related if not then I would think maybe something wrong with samsung firmware and/or operator settings or something...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] zige:
Yeah have said many times. LTE worked with stock rom without problem. So it's something to do with rom, same way that on other users can use wifi and others cant. Others can see LTE and others cant... So yes, there is weird problem on Omega and i hope that indie can sort it.

You can see that wifi is working on me and couple others but also wifi isn't working on some people. Same thing with LTE and all which have noticed this have LTE operator or LTE option was there with stock.

I'm not blaming anybody, not indie, not other users. Omega is still beta as you can read from download page so yes, there is problems and that's why indie need US to see problems which he maybe dont see. I say that indie is the best rom maker, i have used Omega roms with S3, Note2 and Note 10.1. without problem. This is my first problem, but Omega is on beta state so we cant expect fully working rom :)

Indie, take your time, rest, be with family. We can wait, or if someone cant, he/she can go to hell!

Also please all remember, there is something different between I9500 and I9505 and Omega is also FIRST CUSTOM ROM on I9505! Also making custom recovery taked much time by developers, mucher that I9500. Yeah i know that I9505 have different processor and LTE than I9500.

Thank you for your report my friend,

Can I have a link to swiss stock rom so I can check if it has differences with the one I use?

@ all

The bugs so far are 3:

1. NFC

I found the problem with NFC not working, I am close to a solution

2. LTE

I will check the swiss stock rom and then I will give you update

3. wi-fi not working when coming from another firmware other than MDE

I need someone with XXUAMDE to make a test for me,

I need from XXUAMDE stock firmware to flash with odin XXUAMDM firmware and to tell me if wi-fi is working. (I can not get this to work - fully stock XXUAMDE to XXUAMDM with odin wi-fi not working)

I need to know if its my device or if you all have this.

I will flash later today XXUAMDN to check if wi fi will work

Is there another bug report and I missed it?

Camera is ok, but you need to flash the setuidrestrictremoved kernel & update the camera firmware. It's of of you flashed faux or whatever already.

Just flash the setuidrr kernel, boot, open camera & let it update, then flash faux (or your fav) & reboot. Everything good after that.

Sorry, didn't see your post. We are specifically talking about split view camera feature. Normal camera functions are fine. Does your split view/dual camera work 100%?

I'll try that out though.... Yes, I did flash Faux's kernel directly after ROM install. I'll flash a Tmo non restricted stock kernel, then Faux. I'll report back.
