**[KitKat][4.4.1][Omni]Team Asylum Omni 4.4.1 Naughties™ - Slim, Fast and Black Rum™**

Welcome to Asylum Omni 4.4.1, a small, fast, blacked-out and smooth Rom. This Asylum edition is lighter than the official OmniRom.​

What does Asylum Omni have to offer?

Unnecessary apps are chucked out.

Settings, keyboard, clock, phone, InCallUI, messaging, contacts, calendar, Apollo, DSp Manager, SystemUI and framework blacked out, no official AOSP grey

UI tweaks

Ad blocking hosts

Custom Asylum wallpaper app which gives you access to over 300 black and gray weird wallpapers (thanks, Bangsti)

Good battery life

Speed and smoothness

Cherry picks of good unmerged Omni stuff

How often will the Rom be updated?

Daily.

How do I flash it?

Your device must have unlocked bootloader!

If coming from previous Asylum Omni 4.4.1 or official Omni 4.4.1 and you want to do a dirty install:

1. boot into recovery

2. flash the Rom

3. flash the latest SuperSU

4. flash Gapps

5. reboob

If coming from previous Asylum Omni 4.4.1 or official Omni 4.4.1 and you'd like a clean flash:

1. boot into recovery

2. do a full wife

3. flash the Rom

4. flash the latest SuperSU

5. flash Gapps

6. reboob

If coming from anywhere else:

1. install a SELinux compliant recovery first, otherwise you'll get Status 7 error and abort when you try to flash. I'd strongly advise TWRP 2.6.3.0 or newer.

2. copy Gapps, SuperSU and Asylum Omni Zips to your SDCard

3. extract the kernel (boot.img) from the Asylum zip and fastboot flash it on your phone

4. reboob into Recovery

5. wipe data and dalvik cache

6. flash Asylum Omni zip

7. flash Gapps zip

8. flash SuperSU

9. reboob

10. Don't restore system stuff or apps + data using Titanium, it might cause Settings to keep FCing on you and other issues.

Also, don't use any custom addon.d scripts - again, Settings FC problem
