Anytime I root my phones I don't care about a warranty cuz I know from the start that I'm voiding it. I've never tried to have a rooted phone replaced under warranty and never will. Not preaching, I just think if you're gonna root, you should accept responsibility for that. Only situation I could see it being okay is if it's a known problem with the device caused by the manufacturer, i.e. faulty speaker, charging port, etc. Other than that, whether you brick it or break it, it's your fault.

Touche... Had multiple headphone jack issues with like 2-3 rooted/non-rooted fascinates back in the day. Just don't want something like that to happen again and not have a warranty for a manufacturing defect. Needed my voodoo sound on my fassy :)

That said I totally agree with you.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AirBoss24K:
I actually just had this happen to me today. Somewhat concerned about it because I don't remember what build I'm even on. Pretty sure it was a Linaro build from around the same time. I'm not really sure what the issue is but figured I'd attempt to wipe the caches and now I'm stuck at the "Android is upgrading..." screen. It appeared to "upgrade" all my apps but it's now stuck trying to start them and I've been sitting here for about 15 minutes to no avail. Rather depressing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmoG530:
Just wipe data and reflash the ROM again. Nothing to be depressed about. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AirBoss24K:
Turns out I was on the 12-19 build. I believe this is prior to Omni growing in popularity. I'm not sure what caused the random crash, but I ended up restoring to my last backup which was in late December (rookie mistake, I know), and then just wiping everything to test the XDA waters. I can say with certainty, it was the longest time I went without flashing a ROM or even updates to the ROM. I was just generally content with it. Well done!

I saw PA making a comeback and figured I'd give theirs a try just for kicks. Works pretty smoothly, though many complain of location lock issues and data switching problems; I have yet to see any of these issues and have 0 complaints, it's a good ROM. I've been inactive in this thread for some time, but it looks like Omni is generally pretty reliable as far as those items are concerned. I may eventually make the switch back if I start having issues, but so far PA is looking like a decent daily driver, despite being in beta.

Been having some issues with AdAway on this ROM. When I apply updates and reboot, I get a bootloop on the Google black screen. Any ideas? Or suggestions for other ad-blocking apps?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raing:
You could try adfree. I've been using it without problem for a long time. You have to download the APK from their website (http://adfree.bigtincan.com/) and then manually install it, since it got pulled from the play store a while back.

Audio Dropouts

Before I ask, I promise I tried to search the threads for Omni here and on...other sites...but could not find an answer. I love me some Omni, but the most recent build has a flaw that has been driving me crazy and I'm hoping there's someone here who knows of a fix. While playing audio (doesn't seem to matter what app I'm using, but for the record the apps being used are "DoggCatcher" and the Google Music app) and driving my audio will get choppy and eventually just stop. Sometimes it just stops without the choppiness. When this happens, the app still reports that the audio is playing, but no progress is being made in the progress bar and there's no audio. The app will cycle a pause, but nothing happens. The only solution to get the audio back is to kill the app and start it again. The audio can be playing for 15 minutes or 15 seconds before the issue strikes. It also doesn't matter if the audio is being streamed or is played from a local file.

My only thoughts are that maybe dropouts of data are causing the apps to crash? So far none of the changes I've tried have worked. I reloaded the ROM a few times with no change, and other ROMs don't have the issue on the same phone.

Thoughts? Anyone?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] p34rp34r:
Sounds a bit like an issue several others, including myself, had. My problem was random pausing when volume was very high while using an aux cable to the car. Someone else had a pausing issue with an aux cable to a stereo, also at high volume. I noticed the issue was worse when using headphone volume boost >2 in apps like Trickstermod. What seemed to make the problem "go away" for me was using headphone boost =1. However, I am also running latest SmittyV kernel and Omnirom nightly, so maybe one of those things "fixed" this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GotSka81:
Thank you so much for the reply! I found some things throughout this thread that sounded vaguely like the problem I was experiencing, but kept getting caught on the idea that the audio was "pausing" (which seems to be the wording used by others) as opposed to just...stopping. Like you said, my volume is always at max when the issue occurs, and it's feeding into an aux in for my car stereo. I'm not using any kind of headphone boost or even equalization, but maybe I'll give the nightly a whirl and see what happens. I haven't found a ROM that made my GNex bearable like this one has, and it's been killing me that this audio issue is ruining my experience!

Saw that you were gonna give us one for the road and I for one can't thank you enough for that but mostly for just being you.

One of the nicest most helpful guys on this forum without a doubt (along with [MENTION=3390093]MWisBest[/MENTION] Hell tbh for a while there I thought you two were the same guy lol)

Hate to see you go but we all gotta go sometime.

So long and thanks for all the fish!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RLC44:
Fingers crossed that since [MENTION=4328678]metalspring[/MENTION] tweaked [MENTION=1533050]bsmitty[/MENTION]'s kernel for Tuna that he'll grace us with at least one more version of OmniMetal. I can't imagine the smoothness of that combination.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] windfrenzy:
That does sound exciting, but the latest Omnimetal with metal's SmittyV ver. 2 is working great already. It would be nice to have the kernel baked into the ROM with whatever settings he feels work best.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Well here is a test build if anyone wants to try it lol

Nothing really special yet, just all these optimizations, just adding the latest version of dirtyv kernel, plus the fixes needed to run them (and clang had to be built with -O3 instead of -O4, which just means LTO wasnt enabled in clang compiler, but link time opt was enabled in gcc which builds most of the code anyway).

https://github.com/metalspring/android_build/commit/7f07405f3b1ffe152b63b5d1af763b47673fc2e8

FYI, it might be a good idea to reflash the latest version of dirtyv anyway, since I didnt add the ramdisk changes in this build (it was mostly just to get the optimization commits and fixes tested).

So here it is for any of you feeling up to testing-

I had bad luck with it. The rom it self runs great but for some odd reason it killed my battery in no time flat. When I went to check the battery stats it says that the screen killed the battery.

Just wanted to say thanks to metalspring for keeping my GNex alive so long. I switched to the LG G2 last week, hopefully there's someone on your level developing for this device also.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
...Figures...I guess probably no build today...

Review.cyanogenmod.org is DOWN

It is not just you. The server is not responding...

they seem to be having a lot of server issues lately

Edit: their gerrit site is back up already so hopefully a new build today

Should have the fix for the graphic glitches on screen rotation and screenshots :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
I was about to jump in to say the site is up and running (fast response too -- maybe going down convinced a bunch of folks to stay away for now!).

Would today's build include sabermod? Really curious to try cMetal with sabermod and (hopefully) ART...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
I'm going to try to build it with sabermod

However it may need different patches to work properly (I already added in a few)

Also, hopefully including some cherry picks from other roms as well, mostly memory leaks and bug fixes
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
[MENTION=4328678]metalspring[/MENTION] I have one little suggestion if it could be done. In the animation speeds under developer options, there is 1X and .5X. I have seen in some ROMs a .75X which I think is the sweet spot for animation speed. Would it be possible to add that option?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ironfisted:
FML has fixed GPU graphical glitches completely and I am on it right now and can say it works. Slimkat has fixed the backup service from Google. That's what I would like to see in this build :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
This should be pretty easy, I did cherry pick a commit from vanir that had that and it merged without any issues

I think the backup restore is on the gapps side?

You could always try their gapps to see, no guarantees though

And slim is much harder to cherry pick from than other roms, most have an easily accessible gerrit review, which makes it easy to find changes, however I cant seem to find one for slim which means I have to hunt through thier github to find any and all things needed for a certain thing to work

Crappy about slim being hard to cherry from.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Btw, uploading a new build out now, built with sabermod, unfortunately ART still doesnt work, but dont worry, I am still looking into different things

Also includes clear all in recents panel (thanks to vaniraosp)

CRT/rotation glitches "fix" included

added .25 and .75 animation speeds in developer settings (thanks to vaniraosp)

performance enhancements (thanks to vaniraosp)

*note- due to the workaround to "fix" the CRT/rotation glitches, performance does seem to suffer, I suggest trying to use a different, more optimized kernel to make up for this*
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] t1.8matt:
you think something like Mpokang SuperRam would help? I think I got the 4.4 updated one from you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
It absolutely helps lol, its what I'm using on it now

Also, since I know some have had issues with the superram version, I also made and updated 4.4 zip of his cm version of the kernel

(cm version was made because cm-10.2 had issues with videos and video recording due to taking away too much dedicated ram, maybe that carried over into cm-11.0 as well?)

Mpokang_kernel-v10_CM-4.4.zip

There is also aspk kernel which is supposed to have been updated for 4.4 too
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pattyboi:):
any of the askp kernels work,ran them earlier today on this before i switched out,go with the delta version,not all the features are listed,but i swear it flies. ive had my phone at a max speed of 1.8 ghz and i made it from 7 am to right now with moderate use and data on at points
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] t1.8matt:
Man, even with Mpokang on another 4.4 build I just flashed that has the workaround fix, I'm noticing definite performance drop. I hope I can download your build soon so I can at least have Sabermod helping me with performance a bit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Btw, what would you guys think of me switching to ASKP kernel instead of the cm kernel?

It's an anykernel type which is very easy to integrate (I don't have to hunt around to add the needed ramdisk optimizations that other kernels need)

What kernel is this one running?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
haha

and just the stock cm kernel

I might change it in future builds
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jbr05ki:
Mpokang Kernel recommended for this new build or the stock kernel will suffice?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
stock kernel seems to lag because of the CRT/rotation patch... Using a custom kernel seems to help a lot

I'd suggest mpokang or ASKP
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
I just flashed the update and I don't really see that much of a performance drop. I'll probably try out that kernel you posted a bit ago just to try it but so far it seems pretty good on its own. And tell me that .75x animation speed isn't perfect. Lol

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] abezzilla99:
whats the difference between linaro and sabermod? I seen someone say that it has a small performance hit compared to the linaro build of this rom. I think to stay on the safe side I should stay on the linaro version because I have had no reboots or problems whatsoever since flashing this rom but I do want to get the new fixes. So a couple questions, will there be a new linaro build or is sabermod going to be used from here on? And also is the auto restore apps fixed in the new build?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] omniatic:
Clean flash, stock kernel, all apps restored and running great...till I changed the lockscreen shortcut icons. Got constant com.android.systemui f/c. Couldn't get past it, had to wipe and restore a backup. Have to try again later.

Worked great up till then, though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rester555:
I am quite impressed with this ROM and mpokang kernel. Great job to both and CM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
They are both toolchains used in compiling code, linaro is super efficient and helps make the build faster but can also make things work, sabermod is based off of linaro I believe but with a little closer to the AOSP toolchains so its less likely to break things

That said, its tough to say which is better, but the performance hit was probably more from the patch to fix the graphic issues when the screen rotates or on the CRT screen off/on animation

The patch essentially makes the processor do some of the work the gpu normally would, which causes the lag
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] archchanczellor:
I have the same problem. Thought it might have been fixed in the new 11/26 build, but no luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] abezzilla99:
well I switched batteries and about a minute or two after boot my phone froze up. did a battery pull but it was stuck in a bootloop so I just bit the bullet and flashed the sabermod build, hopefully all is well.

Edit: well it's not connecting to the network now and no wifi access so can't set it up. only thing I did other than flash rom and gapps was flash mpokang 1080p from the mpokang thread OP.

What's faster.. this ROM being built with the 'stock' GCC toolchain with ART enabled, or how [MENTION=4328678]metalspring[/MENTION] is currently building the ROM?

;D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
I still have a few ideas to try to get it to work :P

Going to try building with sabermod and "stock" cflags, if it works then I'll just set those as local cflags for ART and return to building the rest with the higher optimizations
