After my information, it's not fixed.

It's not merged, they talk about it.

Seems to be working well on mine, just connected my Tab to it and it worked fine.
[Galaxy S III General] fermasia:
Thanks for your answer. But, what forums do you exactly mean? The Omni web links to XDA forums, meaning here... Still, I'm reading and trying to learn more from the Wiki, but for instance, a bit stuck on local_manifest ... but I won't go further here cause I'd be going further OT and that's not the intention (that's why I thought about a new thread).
[Galaxy S III General] fermasia:
Not a gerrit expert, nor sure if this is device specific or not, but I guess that if merged we should have noticed it in our builds.

Imho , this rom is not safe to use....it overheats device so much its actualy HOT...And all i did is use device for camera , browsing ,messaging for about 15 mins :SS
[Galaxy S III General] raver099:
*sigh*

Ever thought it might be a personal problem? Since it's not on the 'known bugs' list? And nobody is complaining about it. Apart from that it's beta, if you can't handle it, go stable 4.3 or stock rom.

Wifi tethering

Hi,

For those who face a problem with the hotspot on the latest builds -- where it just shows Error and then Wifi is broken until reboot.

The following worked for me running from a Terminal, use at your risk

# su
# restorecon -R /data/misc/wifi

And then wifi tethering is now working... So it might be that something was fixed with the permissions along the way... and those who have not been doing a clean wipe would face this kind of issue.

[Galaxy S III General] AdrianM:
He meant 'always' probably. Dashclock that comes with the rom is built from source by omnirom devs. The one from the play store has another signature (and it's built by someone else) so that's why you can't update the current one from the playstore.

Gotta get to sleep now, early start for work tomorrow but should be able to do some testing while at work :)
[Galaxy S III General] fermasia:
It's not impossible, but after a full wipe and reinstall it kept reporting that my phone service was staying awake even when the screen off :confused:. I think I'll move back to 28th since I need the phone to be stable tomorrow, and I'll continue testing after that. Thanks for the advice.

You can change the sync frequency, picture size and etc.

Agree, and think Omni devs' work is fantastic. Yet we need to point out that camera regained it's stability Omni by killing the face recognition feature. Smart choice, if you ask me. I'd rather have a stable camera than one that fails but is able to find faces for itself.

Thanks alot for this rom, its great exept one thing im a bit afraid to get stuck in a boot loop or something if i change kernel. Which kernels are safe to use? I had my eyes on Googy-Max2 Kernel 2.1.2 or Boeffla-Kernel 2.10 and im not sure if any of them work or which one i should install.

I want the best battery life i can get and i want STweaks or similar tweak to be installed with great audio EQ. Thanks for the help and thanks for the rom.
[Galaxy S III General] BossStang:
Any kernel that say its working with omnirom is ok.

If you should get stuck in bootloop. Just hold up+home+power to enter recovery and flash the omnirom zip again.

Boeffla sound works on stock kernel (if that is what you want). Just download the app from google play.

I think stock kernel is just as good as yank & boeffla (the ones I tried) when it comes to batterylife.
[Galaxy S III General] fermasia:
As for me (doesn't mean it will work exactly the same for you, but I recommend you try it) I've had excelent results with Yank's Kernel. You need to google for Yank 555 forum and register to get it. It has a specific version for Omni. It has Boeffla sound support (you can download Boeffla Sound Control from the store after installing the kernel) but doesn't support stweaks, all your config is done from the Aroma installer when you flash it (you got the option to use his personal config or modify anything you like).

Besides that suggestion, I must tell you I'm getting great battery like with stock kernel, when choosing the Zzmove governor and deadline i/o. You can also download the Boeffla Sound app and you'll get very decent audio. I wouldn't recommend messing with heavier audio engines unless there are versions that support KitKat, specilly when we are still in Omni beta.
[Galaxy S III General] tysse:
I used the null_ rom before and i had my phone down to 5% after 2 days of regular usage, maybe thats just luck or a great rom but i got tired of it, i wanted something fresh and now im stuck at 5% battery life after 4 hours, 7 if its not being used. I'll try the yanks kernel since i now know it works and hope it will fix my problems.

I was success upgrade

But I lost my root ? / supersu?

Any advice?
[Galaxy S III General] mtxx1:
root is not included in this rom.

you need to download the supersu from chainfire website.

not sure why its not included by default, probably to increase download from chainfire website to get him more add income. not that its a bad thing, good to support developer in any way possible.

after you flash the supersu zip, in the supersu app settings, find an option to convert supersu to system app.

after reboot, look for another option to install some script for it to survive a nightly update.

after doing this, you will no longer lose root after updating a nightly.

---------- Post added at 11:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:20 AM ----------

had this issue for a long time already.

im using temasek rom actually. it never happen in cm before.

so i guess it's one of the side effect of having non intrusive incoming call screen feature.

not a big deal, when you take a call when the earphone is in and you hear absolutely nothing,

just quickly tap twice on the loudspeaker button, after activation and deactivating the loudspeaker, the sound will appear again and everything will be normal :)
