I have reported this bug a couple times and found no solution as yet.

Every combination of button press options, no luck at all. Its really annoying me now.

Let's not rush into naming anything that's not working in our device as a bug. Can you provide more info about your config? I'm on 14th and can't reproduce your issue, working fine for me. What's that pic in the screenshot, btw?
[Galaxy S III General] prabhjots:
I think it's related to the clock disappearing issue described above.

I face this after some time from boot, esp after waking from home button and touch wake. It gets corrected when I wake the phone from power button. I'm on 14 th nightly and yank kernel.

And, yes, The pic is just hiding my photo and name. Didn't have a laptop to edit the screenshot so I used pixlr :)
[Galaxy S III General] SiriusCybernetik:
Form my point of view, the clock not showing up on the lock screen is more a feature than an issue.

Having the clock being displayed twice (in the status bar as well as in the middle of the screen) would be disturbing.

I am running Omni only for a few days now, so I don't really know if the clock was displayed in the lockscreen status bar in earlier releases or not.

I can not reproduce the disappearing labels issue that you face. Have you considered reflashing the ROM manually in order to check if the same issue also exists on stock kernel?
[Galaxy S III General] fermasia:
The thing is that custom kernels are not officially supported. There's no way to be sure your issue is not kernel related. And for sure, we can't say it's a bug... Check staying on stock kernel in the next opendelta update and see if it's still happening (probably not).

Off topic... Yank's work is amazing in my personal opinion, but I know he's been fooling around with some mdnie hacks in his omni beta kernels. Perhaps you should ask in Yank's forum... here you'd probably won't find any feedback and it's logical (imagine if Omni devs had to answer for mods and custom kernels).

Indeed, why would anyone want the status bar clock in the lockscreen?
[Galaxy S III General] magamad:
Well, after searching all that is connected with whatsapp I found only questions and no answers, reinstalling did not help, and yes, I use art, but the problem came with the firmware January 6, if I ask questions not correct please forgive me

The stable release was last week for those of us on the mailing list.
[Galaxy S III General] Adam3Sixty:
Oh my god, seriously guys, the stable release of Omni 4.5 is amazing. Can't believe they got it released before Google did!! Well worth the donation version!!

[Galaxy S III General] fermasia:
You can choose launcher3 in case your gapps didn't delete it, or choose a gapps package that doesn't come with GEL (like Banks core).
[Galaxy S III General] taniwhatuu:
Hey no problem :) I thought GEL was the stock launcher for OmniROM. I didn't realise there was a "stock" launcher "Launcher3" until last night.

If you try the various versions of GAPPS you should find some "packaged" features are omitted. Like GEL for example

From recovery, reboot, and try flashing again. TWRP seems to sometimes fail executing the opendelta script.

Maybe [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] can have a look and confirm it's Twrp related.
[Galaxy S III General] Bäcker:
in only fails if the user flashed something from external SD and did not set TWRP back to internal, thus it's looking for the opendelta folder on external SD
[Galaxy S III General] fermasia:
It didn't happen that way for me. Unless TWRP changed to internal by itself... I simply rebooted and on the second time everything went right (didn't change to internal, at least not manually).
[Galaxy S III General] albie999:
Are you able to create folders in the App Drawer on OmniROM (like you can on stock), I have looked around but cannot find any info on this
[Galaxy S III General] fermasia:
You can't but it's not about Omni but the launcher. You'll need to install a different one if you want that feature (think Nova or Apex can deal with that).
[Galaxy S III General] magamad:
possible return stock kernel without full flash?
[Galaxy S III General] Tilgi:
Flash latest nightly, without wipe. Did the same yesterday after using a custom kernel, which caused my phone to reboot twice during the day. Stock ist simply the best! :)

Arrrrgh

I just installed the latest nightly (omni-4.4.2-20140116-i9300-NIGHTLY)and the touch interface keeps freezing, requiring a reboot and then it freezes again :(

OK, so I have installed the previous nightly and get the same result regardless of if I am using Launcher or Launcher 3 ... could this be related to the CWM 6.0.4.4 Touch (for i9300) I am running?
[Galaxy S III General] samisax:
You probably need a clean flash. I'm willing to bet that it would sort out your issues.

And that's a great nickname you have. :)
[Galaxy S III General] carlallanvela:
Hi Devs, I think this is a bug: I have always manually flashed my phone with the latest nightlies, but system updates still detect that my rom's not the latest although its updated.
[Galaxy S III General] rjames123:
That's how system update works . It copies at least one copy of the build in deltaopen folder and then compare . If you dont have any build stored in deltaopen folder , it keeps saying so . For me its not a bug , try un checking all the network option and it may not bother you again.

[Galaxy S III General] FordT:
My usual way is to do a backup with Titanium Backup, although you might want to exclude the system apps, as they will come again with a clean Omni / GApps installation. Also the data of the system apps might contain the stuff that you want to get rid of with a clean installation, so this might also be something to leave out.

A safety copy to your PC of the Titanium Backup folder and everything you don't want to lose from your internal / external SD-card is recommended.

Wipe everything.

Clean installation of Omni / GApps.

Start it up and connect your Google account, also set up WLAN, connect to Play Store and install Titanium Backup.

If your Titanium Folder survived the wiping, that's good. Otherwise copy it back to the phone ;)

Restore everything, restart.

Most stuff will be running now, although I found some apps need a manual first start (Tasker, Dropbox, Avast, ...) to start automatically the next times.

Good luck!

Disclaimer: This worked for me, ymmv
[Galaxy S III General] xrad:
As a small improvement, TB allows to create a .zip installable version of itself. You can flash TB then as a system app right with the new ROM and then restore everything from the backup, including all wifi connections you had before. So no need to manually configure your local wifi or download TB using this approach.
[Galaxy S III General] samisax:
Titanium Backup also let's you create a flashable zip for all of your apps, so you don't even need to restore any updates through the app itself. Just flash. :)
[Galaxy S III General] xrad:
Yeah... I have to admit though that everytime I use TB I'm intimidated by the massively overloaded UI and I still haven't gotten to the point where I can reliably tell it what and what not to backup. So effectively each time I'm ending up with a lot more backups than I need to migrate, so I'll have to pick and choose anyway. So creating zips would probably not help me. But I'll keep it in mind, that way restoring all stuff must really be a breeze... How to you manage that process? Do you use labels or how do you make TB tell good from bad?

I had been having the same random issues with the past 2-3 weeks. Additionally calls would randomly stop working. I tried clean installing SlimKat and saw the same issues there too. I guess something went kaput in my phone at some point of time.
[Galaxy S III General] dakoookie:
It updates dictionaries pretty often
[Galaxy S III General] FordT:
Thanks for the hint, but actually I have a nightly backup, so I also like to use these fresh installations to weed out the apps that I didn't use in a long time and that only clog up the system. If you do this beforehand, this zip sounds very practical.
[Galaxy S III General] ThunderBolt_BR:
Go to Settings, apps permissions.

scroll down until you find Dialer and tap it. Scroll down again and uncheck the last option "Keep alive". (the actual names could be different, as I translated them from Portuguese).

Now return, search for telephone app and do the same.

I noticed a tremendous increase in battery life after doing so and I think this issue should be investigated deeper.

Is there a way (like a command line in terminal) that the above permissions can be turned of in other AOSP ROMs? I would like to test this in a friend's SIII running CM10.2

[Galaxy S III General] albie999:

[Galaxy S III General] ThunderBolt_BR:
No, I haven't seen any side effects: The phone still accepts calls as usual. I would like to try that on CM.10.2 as well: it is in a more mature state then Omni 4.4 because of the Vsync working in the HWC,

Any help on how to change apps permissions by command line would be greatly appreciated.

No you don't, The phone continues to accept calls, SMS, WhatsApp, like it always did.

Guys,

My friend google has shown me that editing apps permissions is also possible on Android 4.3 (hence in CM10.2).

All you need to do is install an app called Permissions Manager that can be found here and it will allow you to change permissions of an app just like in Android 4.4

I am going to test the effect of removing the "keep alive" permission on phone an dialer apps in my friend's SIII with CM10.2 on Monday.

Nightlies

Hey, I just installed omnirom as my first custom ROM on my S3 yesterday and woke up to a notification about an update.

I'm running TWRP 2.6.3.1 so I thought I'd flash it but when I tried, it came up with zip verification failed. The tickbox related to zip verification was automatically ticked even though in my advanced setting I had turned zip verification off.

I ended up having to flash it manually. Is there any reason why twrp defaults to having zip verification on when I flash a nightly even though I have it checked off in settings?

I'm also having an issue with the camera app. When I take a picture and then view it by tapping it in the top corner, the camera app crashes if I try and press back to go back to camera mode. Any fix for this?
[Galaxy S III General] ReBORN ViRUS:
Hello,

I can confirm I don't have the camera app issue you just mentioned. I am on 1/19 nightly, all stock Omni (including camera app from Omni).

However, I see FFC is not working on 1/19 nightly. Anybody else having same issue?

TIA!
[Galaxy S III General] SuparNoob:
A reboot fixed my camera issue. I still have no idea why it happened.

I still don't know why TWRP auto-enables zip verification when I select flash nightly from OmniDelta.
