I would re-flash the update using TWRP or Philz followed by su 1.86. Wipe cashe and dalvik and see how you go.

Also don't forget to install the backup script in Super User setting>custom rom>install backup script. If you don't do this you will loose root on each update.
[Galaxy S III General] Adam3Sixty:
What is this "launcher3" that comes in Omni now??
[Galaxy S III General] habylab:
I had, but reflashed the rom to just get the stock kernel and still no boot. Assuming it had something to do with Apps updating during me hitting "Flash Now". The device was fine, just couldn't get past the last screen of upgrading.

I'll inspect all these different gapps now, finally.
[Galaxy S III General] pippoaacc:
Excuse me but I can't figure out what is the difference between the aosp dialer and so called "Google dialer" some are talking about. It seems to be the same. Anyone?

[Galaxy S III General] taniwhatuu:
Google dialer is closely tied with the internet search and location resulting in locations nearby when you search in google dialer

Google Dialer allows you to search for business numbers for outgoing and incoming calls. Let's say Lloyds calls you. You don't have their number so you don't know who's calling. With Google Dialer it will automatically search its own database and if matches were to be found, you'd get " Call from Lloyds" or something similar.

Again, my advice is to try a factory reset. Do a recovery backup, wipe data, wipe system, flash the ROM, flash Gapps, and see if it works. If that does the trick, you should be able to recover your apps with Titanium Backup from the TWRP backup you made earlier.

If you still have issues, you might want to try to download the ROM again and check its integrity. I suggest using burnbit.com to create a torrent out of the download link. Torrents check md5 sums quite effectively and you can use them to avoid download errors.

The thing is, even if you manage to boot your system, you probably have some corrupted files that need to be over-written, and some might not be fixed without a proper clean install. No one wants a laggy device, or force closes, or battery drains.

It sucks, I know, but that's a consequence and part of the fun of testing ROMs! :)

Can anyone recommend a decent replacement for S Voice? This is the only thing I miss from stock ROM

The Voice Dialler app simply doesn't work...

I thought there was a Google version for this but I don't seem to have it. Do I need to flash Google Dialler from Banks? I'm just using the dialler that comes with Omni...

I need one that can be triggered by pressing the call button on my in-car bluetooth (like S Voice).
[Galaxy S III General] samisax:
Google Now.
[Galaxy S III General] Adam3Sixty:
That little microphone button on the search bar is ur friend!! Its awesome.
[Galaxy S III General] audinswfc:
Never used Google Now before, wasn't really sure what it did. Just tried it and it works! Hah. Cheers both.
[Galaxy S III General] Adam3Sixty:
Once u get the hang of it, and the key words, u will love it.
[Galaxy S III General] harrybarracuda:

I'll follow your advice re the backup script.

Many thanks for your help!

Do you know how I can get it so that when I press call button on my bluetooth device it'll bring up the Google Now voice search (like how S Voice works)? Currently it's still bringing up the crappy Voice Dialler.

Google Now voice search works fine for calling when accessing it manually but this isn't ideal while I'm driving...
[Galaxy S III General] samisax:
Try this on your bluetooth headset: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kober.headset&hl=en

If it works, they have a full paid version that might be worth it for you!

Also, see if you can set up tasker to do what you want.

Another option is: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kin.bluetooth_launch&hl=en which I found on http://androidforums.com/samsung-ga...w-launch-google-voice-search-home-button.html

As for voice dialer, I uninstall it after every nightly along with some other apps.

I haven't tried any of this, but please do report back what works over bluetooth! :)
[Galaxy S III General] audinswfc:
Thanks! Installed the Bluetooth Launcher and that works, it let's you choose the voice part within the Google Search app directly. I had to turn off Google Now though because if the first voice search fails it seems to lock out the voice search so if you re-attempt it's like it can't hear you. Turning off Google Now allows me to keep trying voice searches one after another.

I had to disable Voice Search before I could do any of this though. Once disabled it let me choose between Bluetooth Launcher and Google Search but for some reason it's a different Google Search voice dialler which doesn't work... Selecting Bluetooth Launcher instead works fine though!

Hope I've made sense haha :)

Hello to all,

I want crypt my phone.

I setup a password, battery is on 100% and it's plugged in the AC power.

Then I started to crypt the phone.

The green big android figure is showing.

There are no animation other things.

I have waited for three hours, but nothing happen.

No restart or other things.

Then I press the home button, I come back to the home screen.

I know from cm, then the crypt is starting, the phone restart and starts the crypt. But here nothing happen. :(

One important function for a phone. ;)
[Galaxy S III General] ghostofcain:
A situation like this a logcat would be invaluable.
[Galaxy S III General] DJ BlackEagle:
Ok, I would do. I must look how I must use it. Never used this thing.
[Galaxy S III General] fermasia:
Not sure if this is ROM related (probably not) but I would really appreciate your help, cause didn't happen in other ROMs before. Every time I unlock my screen I get a message in the notification drawer about SD Card being prepared and mounted. Every single time... So my questions are:

1) How can I know what format my SD Card is formatted right now?

2) What format should be best to make things work as better as possible? Ex-Fat?

If someone can help me out or give me some advice,
[Galaxy S III General] DJ BlackEagle:

Omni Rom 4.4.2

Morning guys, anyone installed this Update yet?

[MENTION=4457560]samisax[/MENTION] seems I spoke too soon. The Google voice search will only work when the Bluetooth is not connected. If I connect my phone to my Bluetooth handsfree in the car I can bring up Google voice search with the button on the handsfree but the phone can't hear me (no response from Google voice search). It's like when Bluetooth is on the phone mic is being muted but the phone isn't connecting to the Bluetooth's mic so it's useless, although i can talk to people through the Bluetooth's mic so not sure if that's actually what's happening... All I know is it worked fine on stock sammy rom.

Anyone else able to get Bluetooth handsfree voice search working?
[Galaxy S III General] ghostofcain:
This here seems to be your problem

I'm personally not familiar with crypt keeper so can't help any further maybe someone else will jump in

This might be a sign of a dying SD card, certainly unexpected dismounts where the first sign my SanDisk card was on it's way out. My advice would be to back up the contents of the card and try reformatting it to see if this helps.
[Galaxy S III General] mo_waq:
Can somebody please advise me the current known issues with this ROM? - I am currently on CM11, but it has always had a unstable camera (the video view has always been stretched). Thanks
[Galaxy S III General] fermasia:
Did so (reformatting) and the problem is still there. Sounds like I'll be spending some bucks on a new one. Thanks for the advice.
[Galaxy S III General] HopZ:
I have major issues with the camera.

However all works nicely if you flash OmniRom-Fixed camera lib v1.1 on top. I've added it to my /sdcard/OpenDelta/FlashAfterUpdate folder.

I have had a few random issues with this ROM but I love the one click updates, and currently no issues other than missing bookmarks in stock browser and no incognito
[Galaxy S III General] DJ BlackEagle:
Thanks.

I try this night a full wipe. Install omni and gapps. Then I try to crypt it.

Other way, I don't know what I can do.

What I'm wondering is the other error messages about the security.

[MENTION=4115492]audinswfc[/MENTION]

Well, I think you want your bluetooth mic always listening, like the Moto X or Google Glass. The thing is, even you find a way to do it, it would drain your battery.

I think you'll have more luck finding a solution in another thread. Try to find a related one or start a new one. You'll get an audience who's better prepared to help you out since people here are thinking more about the ROM and less about bluetooth voice control. Anything that works on CM11 should work on Omni. :)
[Galaxy S III General] audinswfc:
That's the thing, bluetooth mic isn't listening when Google voice search is on, only during calls :( Haven't tried it with CM11 but it was working fine on CM10.2. Hmmm, might just live without it, can't be bothered wiping and flashing other roms at the moment. Cheers anyway :good::D
[Galaxy S III General] Adam3Sixty:
Right then my fellow OmniUsers, I have a bug, I dunno if it is ROM or kernel based. So, seeing as a lot of people here use Boeffla Kernel, I thought I would ask here.

I drive for my job, so often use my phone with my wired headset (can't be arsed with bluetooth, don't see any benefits)

When I am in a call, I lay my phone on the seat next to me, or I put it into a little pocket on the dash of my van. When in the call, the screen goes off, as u would expect to save some battery, but this is where the bug comes in.....

When I press the home button to wake the screen again, it sometimes takes me to the Recent Apps screen, like I had long pressed the home button.

Hopefully, someone will be able to shed some light on this subject for me, it is really weird.

You have to understand that the camera issues are not exclusive to OmniROM. As far as I can tell they are the plague of every KitKat based ROM be it stock or not

Issues I run into are:

Audio stuttering and overheating while playing 3D games such as Real Racing 3 and Giant Bolder Of Doom.

Unusually high battery consumption by Play Services (although that isn't a ROM issue).

Changes to the Dalvik Settings, Memory Settings and Advanced Settings under Performance don't stick on reboot after ticking the relevant boxes.

The Rename Device setting in Wi-Fi Direct settings does not work.

Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot still doesn't work.

Added to Jira issue tracker. Hopefully these issues will get the attention they deserve.
[Galaxy S III General] motorhead1916:
It works and that's just a popup notification. Click 'Okay', it should reboot into the recovery console.

And I'd like to thank the devs for this wonderful ROM. I don't have Xposed framework and I haven't experienced any issues. I can live without toggling tiles and tethering for now. It's just perfect with the stock kernel. Perfect!

Camera isn't a big deal, it works most of the time. I carry a Nikon with me :)

If there is an FC or if the error 'cannot connect camera' pops up, if not a reboot, using Focal once usually fixes.

[Galaxy S III General] Moster2:
Google apps are always the cause of battery drain. Always when someone complains about his battery life, you can be sure its somewhat related to the gapps. That's also the reason why I avoid them, although they have some nice features. Im only using the play store.
