I cant get root access? What root file do i need to flash? cuz the one i was using : CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4 isnt working with this 4.4

And, i cant find the split view option! I long press home, i see recent app list, i long press an APP there and it shows 2 options 'Remove from list' and 'App info'
[Galaxy S III General] andy.lovegrove:
Flash su 1.86 from recovery

Also if you are referring to multi view, that has not been implemented in OmniROM yet.

Personally I think it's a waste of time.

Whats wrong with boeffla sound?
[Galaxy S III General] monty fw:
Did anyone notice some lag/unresponsiveness at random times ? It happened to me a few times, especially when opening Maps from Chrome, though I didn't experience this with the latest build (from the 23 dec).

Also the status bar sometimes doesn't show up after unlocking the phone. I just have to lock and unlock again for it to show up.

Except those very slight glitches, the rom is awesome and very snappy, way better than the crappy 4.1.2 from samsung !
[Galaxy S III General] fermasia:
Hope it doesn't sound too dumb but... stock kernel supports boeffla sound (without installing boeffla kernel)?
[Galaxy S III General] BossStang:
Yes just install boeffla sound app from market. I stumbled on it by accident to after running boeffla kernel for a while.

(So no I dont think it sound dumb. Thought it was something only I havnt seen. :) )

Phone not getting detected in PC on USB

I have seen something in OP on this, but wanted to check nevertheless. Whenever I connect my phone to the PC using USB, my phone is not recognized / detected as a drive. Only way I can transfer files between my phone and PC is by using ADB or using an explorer like Android Commander. Is there anything that I need to do here to help my PC detect the phone? Or is it working the way it is supposed to? Can someone help here please? Thanks.
[Galaxy S III General] N-TheAndroNoob:
Yes. Go to settings -> About phone -> Build number (tap it repeatedly until you are a developer) hit thanks if I helped! Thanks!
[Galaxy S III General] alirezaafkar:
I know that! But in latest nightly when I want goto developer options it force closes!
[Galaxy S III General] N-TheAndroNoob:
Go to settings > Sound > Volumes > Uncheck 'Link ringtone & notification volumes' Now you can lower notification volume from there.

You can also hit one of you volume buttons after applying the above setting. > Hit the Sound settings key > All volumes for every sound will be there.

Also, I have a question to the devs. Will there be an HDR mode for OmniROM 4.4.2? Because this is a great ROm and one of the things that will fully complete this is HDR mode.

[Galaxy S III General] andy.lovegrove:
Sorry you are having so many issues. There must be something fundamentally wrong with your set up. It may be useful at this stage to list any additional apps, kernels that you are installing.

Phone type? You are on the international version right? Silly question but you never know.

What method are you using to do a clean install?

Which gapps?

What version of SuperUser are you flashing?

Are you installing that Googy Beta Kernel?

Are you installing xposed framework? I'm not sure that would impact on this issue but I'd keep your install pristine clean, completely as stated in the OP until you find out what's going on.

It's pretty safe to say that any camera apps that you use over and above the stock camera will suffer the same fc's because they all use the same basic camera architecture.

The best fix for me so far is to have the restart camera app available on xda.

I was off the AOSP for couple of weeks and now I return to omni , as far as I can see nothing changed

-overheats

-drains fast (2 h 30min and im down unlike stock 4.3 where I ALWAYS get 3h 40++).

-no hotspot

-camera still fcs(MAJOR ISSUE), you guys really need to work on the camera app, how much time will it pass like this..

(Full wipe / default kernel / no gapps).

Idk , only thing that makes me come back to omni is the smoothness and speed..

And btw any news on that HW Composer ?
[Galaxy S III General] Choristav:
-No overheating here

-Battery lasts around 5 hours for me, or 3 when playing games. Idle is really bad, I suspect battery drain after call.

-Camera doesn't FC here, lacks sd card support and some other stuff though

I cant beleave you just said 5 hours , I could beleave if you said 3 or 3 30..

My s4 snapdragon dosent pull 5 hours and I never instaled anything custom on it.

And it does have heating problem , It got hot as soon as I flashed the rom ..all I did was couple of mins on browser.

Beleave me , I use 2mm thick case and if there is heating I definitely notice it,because with this case you either feel that back getting hot or its not hot enough for you to feel trough it(like with 4.3 stock).

Dont get me wrong im not whining , im just trying to give some review thats more on general basis and get more opinions from different users on same issue I have.

A thick case is bad for your phone. It makes it heat up more. You need a thin cover to allow the heat to escape. You don't use a thick blanket in the summer, do you?

If you use a thick cover no wonders that you have overheating problems... I'm running Omni nightlies for over a month now and never got heating problems while on stock kernel. You should consider heating being more about your specific config than an AOSP issue.

Some must remember we are all here to taste cutting edge KitKat... And there's a price for it. If you want your device optimal... Unroot and go back to sammy.

[Galaxy S III General] prabhjots:
That's a very clumsy way, we needed to add every single number. Now you can just go to the contact you want to blacklist, and check "all calls to voicemail". This will block calls from all numbers listed in that contact.

I got a new number and it turned out to be a recycled one. So I created a contact "Do not Pick" and added to that all numbers from which I received unsolicited calls. Seems to work well for me, especially since I don't need to add each number manually to the blacklist.
[Galaxy S III General] Bäcker:
I usually get 2 hours - to 50%!

also I never had any overheating.

only really problem is after call drain, but since I made a habit of restarting after calls that has become manageable.

All i have to do is flash it right?

[Galaxy S III General] DJ BlackEagle:
Hi Adrian,

I agree with you.

It would be interesting, why not try to fix it or work on it.

It's only interesting to know this thing. I use an camera restarter from temasek and it's work for me.

One other I can't really understand, I have searched for the setting "Screen rotation", why it's under "using help" (sorry,I don't know how it's called in English this option) and not under display?

Don't mind it bad, I appreciate their work, they do it for free and in their free time. I like omni rom and it's really good and stable (even it's a beta).

Merry Christmas and happy new year

[Galaxy S III General] sherlock5545:
The install button being impossible to select is due to some apps. For example, apps that reduce brightness by overlaying a canvas on the screen and then using the alpha gradation to change brightness will cause the same issue. It's not the Rom's fault.
