When an ActiveDisplay notification comes on I lose my nav buttons and status bar. Holding the power button brings them back on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] t1.8matt:
anyone tried flashing a kernel on the latest Omni? Don't know if there's going to be issues from the 4.8 toolchain or not?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bluerez79:
I flashed mpokang kernel with this ROM and everything is working great.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ricola1989:
Tried clean flashing multiple times with and without custom kernel. Wi-Fi would not turn on at all. Running dalvik and ART. Very smooth ROM regardless.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
wifi works just fine here
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ricola1989:
I'll try a reDL and reflash and see if that works.

Anyone know if the new Golden works with this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
any 4.4 or anykernel type kernels should work just fine

also I'm working on at least 1 little christmas present for everyone (hopefully it works) ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darx07:
I don't see anything listed in the first post, but is there a list of known issues with this rom? thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jayandare:
Active notification causes status and notification bar to disappear and I'll still have very slight graphical glitches in like the small "x" besides the search box in the Play store and other similar areas. But I love the rom just waiting till some of the wrinkles are ironed out. Amazing work and definitely worth a try.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darx07:
thanks for the quick reply! i'll probably just wait until it's improved upon a bit more. i don't have a lot of time to backup/wipe/flash, so i'm usually stuck with whatever i throw on for at least a week or two lol. my current rom freezes when i try to update more than 1 app at a time... just looking for speed & stability.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EAK128:
Wanted to come back and say that I got the Bluetooth issue resolved by deleting the pairings in my car and my phone then went into apps and force stopped and cleared the data of the Bluetooth share app then rebooted the phone and after pairing again everything is working as it should.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
anyone still having the reboot issues on omnimetal?

If not then I can go ahead and let other roms that still have that issue know the possible fix :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bluerez79:
Not yet. Running for about six hours on new build.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cujo6801:
No reboots here...

Been running it since you posted it...

Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hexto:
I'm having reboot issues and it's still with the dialer. Having to create a conversation on hangouts then dialing numbers that way. Every time I hit the dialer it freezes. If I can make the call it freezes when the call is disconnected

Clean install, PA GAPPS, and no change in kernel. Haven't even restored apps.

Edit: Just realized that Wi-Fi "connects" but it actually doesn't. Says no internet even though it shows it's connected. Tried 2.4ghz and 5.8ghz
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Did you wipe system?

Also could you try to get any logcats of the reboots? (you'll probably have to do it through adb from your pc), also setting Enable OpenGL traces in developer options to logcat would be a big help (provides more info)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] misterk267:
I've already had two. :(. Using ASKP
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aohmer:
Sorry dumb question, but how do I set the custom kernel settings, I am running one of the custom kernels thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Meltdown03:
2 for me too. I dirty flashed tho.. One opinion the dialer and the other in the Play Store.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] privy:
Dirty flashed using tiny kernel and art.... So far so good no reboots.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Txwolf1980:
I've had two reboots, both during task switching. The first was jumping into Google now, directly from plus, and the second was switching back to here, from trickster.

Also had a couple of instances of the old black box webview issue, when first opening g+. It seems to be isolated to that app, and goes away after the app loads.

Clean, banks 12.11, MPO super ram

Note: I did under clock to 1036800, read ahead to 1024, and gpu to 512. Only other tweaks are fast charge, and high performance sound to 1 (all in trickster)

---------- Post added at 09:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:35 PM ----------

Performance in the settings menu will give you basic controls. You can get an app off the play store for more granular control (I use trickster, personally)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] t1.8matt:
I wonder why out of all the settings to choose from, quick toggle settings hasn't been coded into Omni yet? Is this something that the devs of Official Omni Rom are putting off on doing? It's just weird since it's such a basic mainstream setting anymore. Not complaining, just got me wondering whats up with that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] abezzilla99:
Kind of off topic but does anyone know of a way to backup homescreen layout, folders, and widgets on google edition launcher? It's such a pain in the ass to set it up every time I update but I can't go back to nova. Also thanks metalspring for the update I'll be trying when I get off work tomorrow night!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johnd12:
Could someone kind person tell me what the correct settings are for the "phone info" page? I foolishly ran a third party 4g switch app because I was having a problem with the quick settings toggle, and it gave me access to the phone info settings. Now the data connection fails whenever I switch from 3g to 4g. Should the preferred network be GSM/CDMA (prl)?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stebomurkn420:
Yes it should be gsm/CDMA auto prl...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cujo6801:
Backup launcher in tibu...

You can restore all your settings

With one click..

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ricola1989:
Thanks for the quick response. I think it was Golden kernel fuggin it up. I read that it was having issues, running ASKP smooth as all get out. Bout to switch to ART. No random reboots or graphical errors here ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nism240sx:
Hey I did a clean install even formatting system and I lost root and can't figure out how to get it back. Any help? Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justen7723:
You need to flash the super su zip in the op. Omni does not come rooted.

So, my problem is that my phone randomly freezes and locks up.. And I have to do a battery yank.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wishka233:
FYI still experiencing data drops on handoffs from 4G. Clean flashed from stock. Verizon needs to release updated radios :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swarlesbarkely:
I just encountered an odd bug I didn't have on the last omnimetal. I have a tibu schedule to clear cache for some apps and then reboot every night. However, now whenever I do trickster says it was a dirty shutdown and doesn't apply my settings.

I'm on art now but it happened on dalvik too.

Using golden kernel.

Not sure if it's Rom specific.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aohmer:
Are there no options to add stuff to the lock screen yet? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swarlesbarkely:
Settings > security > allow lock screen widgets
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
I'm checking this thread way too much. Lol

Hahahaha.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
So...did the overnight build not get posted yet? If it's close...sounds like it's worth waiting...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
Haven't seen it yet. Still waiting... Anxiously
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
Is it OK to ask how the build is coming? I hate asking that but it's been quiet today.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
It is being worked on, trying to resolve different building issues with cherry picks

I could just leave them all out but it would just be basically the same as any other cm nightly out there, except perhaps slightly faster due to linaro

I really wish when people uploaded patches to gerrit they would be more descriptive...

for example-

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/54219/

says it relies upon the commit	Display Settings: Better font size control (MERGED)

but, it actually relies on that commit, plus

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/53468/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/54067/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/54399/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/54326/

and those, in turn need-

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/53502/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/53892/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/54398/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/53827/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/53829/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/53830/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/53891/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/54149/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/54150/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/53358/

So you can see the issue with adding even one little feature sometimes, although I think I got it all worked out, just need to finish compiling, do a quick test and upload, maybe 1-2 hours and a new build will be up :p

I wish more commits were like these 2 lol (see comments to see what I mean)

however I'm not going to add them in now, just to make sure they dont conflict with the cherry picks listed above

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/54420/

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/54418/

Also a developer tip anyone wanting to try to compile a rom themselves and use cherry picks from gerrit

if you make a cherry pick from packages/apps/settings (say like lockscreen shortcuts), always always always check for a frameworks/base cherry pick to match it and vice versa otherwise your build will probably fail or the feature wont work properly, if at all
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
+1

frameworks_base is a HUGE part of the Android system.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
New build up

Major new changes from cm-

**Graphical glitches fixed with webview**

new boot animation

new font size UI in settings

fix lag in lock screen sound

quicker unlock

new wallpapers

My cherry picked features

hardware key settings for volume rocker (control media on screen off, volume wake, swap volume buttons when rotated)

able to set lockscreen slider shortcuts

added back cm navbar customization

added back cm navring customization

long press back to kill app (in developer settings)

prompt for document/download deletion

fix for mobile network settings for toro

update all phone icons to kitkat versions

vold: pass selinux context to ext4 mount (remount ro)

linker: Avoid logcat spam with some blobs
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Now to try a test build with full -O3 optimizations with 4.8 sabermod toolchain (I currently use -O2 for released builds and 4.8 linaro for rom and 4.7 for kernel) :P

Most likely all hell will break loose, either it wont build, it wont boot or all kinds of things will be broken

However, on the off chance everything works then it should be super fast and I'll post it up tomorrow (or technically later today) as an experimental build lol

as expected-

frameworks/compile/libbcc/lib/Support/sha1.c: In function 'SHA1Transform':

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsm471:
I have to say this is the most smooth ROM I have ran in a long time. The black boxes are gone. I'm still getting the glitches in auto rotation and crt animation but I can totally deal with that. Oh and thankyou for posting links to all your cherry picks and modifications it gives those of us who are still learning a great source of information.

Great work metalspring
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
I've never had this happen before lol

Error (509)

This account's public links are generating too much traffic and have been temporarily disabled!

oh well, changed link in op to the regular PA gapps
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Btw, if anyone is interested I modified the mpokang v10 superram kernel to work with kitkat (specifically cm-11)

Mpokang_kernel-v10_SuperRAM-4.4.zip
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
I may have my own ROM project going, but I'm actually only going to run this ROM.

You did a fantastic job bro
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wishka233:
Great job with this ROM! Can we dirty flash the latest build or do you recommend a full wipe?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Meltdown03:
I couldn't get ART to work, boot animation just sits and spins. I let it sit for over 5 minutes. Is it compatible? It works on the other cm11 rom but I like the customizations you put in.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bluerez79:
I dirty flashed over 11.19 I believe and working well here. Very nice.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
ART doesnt play nice with linaro toolchain for some reason :(

I'm going to try switching to sabermod toolchain

Its more optimized like linaro is, but also closer to what aosp is like so maybe it will fix ART

Btw, I suggest flashing the mpokang kernel I posted, it makes this rom have absolutely 0 lag that I can find lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
So -- it sounds like we should wait for a build with sabermod if we want to use ART? ART is definitely out with the current build?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
Running the latest 24 build along with the modified mpokang v10 super-ram kernel and gotta say this is my first 4.4 experience and this rom looks and feels great! Thanks metal, keep up the good work =^_^=
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] modernbummer:
Um, yeah. Your ROM with this kernel is ridiculous. Fastest this ancient artifact has run in some time. Thank you for your time and efforts!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pitchdarkice:
I just noticed my dialer freezes randomly after completing calls as well. also on incoming calls i have situations where it's the stock slide to accept/reject and sometimes it's the omnirom select answer/reject option.

this is on the 12/23 build
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hexto:
I believe the minimized answer and reject buttons are part of the Google Dialer. I like it cause it doesn't take over the whole screen especially if I'm gins reject the call
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
Your best bet would be to pull some logs and leave em here. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hexto:
I will try. Never pulled a log cat but should be able to figure it out. Would have to be tomorrow night. I'm busy. today
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
Would you like a link to a tutorial?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
If you do get a chance to try to get a logcat, try to make sure to set enable opengl traces in developer options to logcat please

That gives much more detailed info in the logcat of what some things related to graphics are doing and may really help narrow down the reboot issues
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] privy:
So slightly strange issue when I unlock my phone and quickly try to pull down the notification bar my phone locks itself. Not sure what's up with that but.... Then again I did dirty flash and tried to flash xlouder, got stuck in bootloop and then reverted it. Will clean install nowish.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] heXacode:
No reboots here. Used 3 different kernels on 12/23 build and a lot of tweaking through trickster mod app. Did several other things on and off between dalvik/art. No reboots occurred.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jrk190:
No reboots, but lots of locking up and battery yanks. I'm using the included kernel and such.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swarlesbarkely:
Haven't had any issues with freezing/reboots on golden
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] i_am_the_one:
I had the phone lock up when going to the dialer, after exiting hangouts and going immediately to the dialer
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Amtip:
I'll say this first: I love this rom. In my opinion this ROM is near perfect, it's already my favorite I've used, and I've been using custom ROM'd androids for 4 1/2 years. That being said, a few additions will put it in my head that this is the best build ever. I don't ask much, just the ability to change quicksettings tiles. Status bar clock and battery customization would be great, too, but I'm not going to ask too much. This ROM (with SuperRAM) is the fastest I've used, ART is amazing, everything is so smooth and crisp. I've had no crashes, no reboots, no lockups, it's phenomenal for a new ROM on a new base. I don't know what else to say, thank you metalspring, thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] endomatic:
I have the same feelings about the 12-19 cMetal build. I haven't tried the Omnimetal latest but I am very tempted.

Metalspring's builds are the best that have been on my phone. Smooth, fast and stable.

Happy holidays!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hexto:
Yes please. Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
merry christmas everyone, as a special gift here is carbon rom 4.4 and vanir 4.4 (sorry, ART still isnt working with vanir though so dont try it unless you want a bootloop lol)

Only changes I made was including askp kernel in both and building carbon with linaro 4.7 toolchain

carbon rom 4.4.2-toro

vanir 4.4.2-toro

Enjoy and dont spend all christmas playing flashing (roms i mean lmao) and enjoy time with family or however you celebrate christmas

side note- maguro and toroplus versions will come later too
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] abezzilla99:
Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] itslels:
Carbon build for our phone! You just made my Christmas, thanks man!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] d00dr:
CarbonROM running like a boss! My first time using ART and I'm loving it! Thank you, metalspring, for this amazing Christmas gift!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
Merry Christmas all. :)

I'm going to go ahead and try the Carbon build.

'Tis the season to give folks! Make sure to toss a few dollars [MENTION=4328678]metalspring[/MENTION] 's way. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pattyboi:):
hey buddy,dont mean to bug you,but any bugs in carbon? ;)

P.S merry christmas/happy holidays to all!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] prbadboy69:
So far no issues yet. No reboots or graphical glitches. Bluetooth works. That's for carbon
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hexto:
Good call! I just donated. Merry Christmas!!!

Been using Vanir since this afternoon without issues. Omni looked great and had more features but the freeze ups were just too often.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] abezzilla99:
just finished setting up carbon. one thing I'm missing from omni is active display. Thought it would be in this build but for now I got dynamic notifications. Any chance it will be in future carbon builds? I like carbon so far but I don't see any big advantages over omni.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pattyboi:):
thanks for the info bud!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Meltdown03:
Does Vanir have more/better features than Carbon?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] elliot2112:
Official vanir has more. Don't know about this vanir.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hexto:
I tried both and liked Vanir better. Feels like it has more features. It's plenty fast and has been solid all day. Been plugged in most if the day cause I used the phone a lot so can't tell how the battery life is but everything else is great. Clean install with mpkangSuperRAM kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Meltdown03:
Is there a way to enable transparent status bar and navigation bar though?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hexto:
I did not see that option
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gohamstergo:
All, please do continue to post opinions on Vanir vs. Carbon. I'm going to also test both but want others' opinions. Especially in regards to: google play services keep awake, cpu awake time in general, battery life, 3g/4g handover, etc. currently running Beanstalk and cpu awake time is around 90%...something is clearly wrong. But anyway, post opinions.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MBQ_:
Nope! Been running surprisingly well.

I love it when people listen to me. :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Txwolf1980:
Flashed carbon yesterday, and it had a couple of features, but I decided to flash Vanir, before I set it up. No reason than a straight up feature comparison

Vanir won, easily. Out of carbon, omni, and cm, has the the most (by an edge, in cmetal's case).

Stability is excellent, as is speed. I haven't done any tweaks, beyond fast charge and jacking the sound in trickster, on the askp metal included.

No data drop off during call, or hand off issues (I'm a trucker, so I would catch those, immediately)

Battery life is about average. 4-6 for me, depending on usage. Again, that's dealing with bouncing anywhere from 100-300 towers in a day, and crap signal a lot of time. Those of you on WiFi can probably double that, for a baseline

All in all, of the 4, this will be my daily.... For a day, or two

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nexus_man:
Wifi handoff

Only issue I had with Vanir was with wifi. When I came from 3g area to a saved wifi it wouldnt connect until I turn off wifi then back on. I tried on 2 different saved wifi spots. Anyone else having that issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Txwolf1980:
I haven't, but I have about two hours until I hit my terminal. I have a saved WiFi spot there. I'll let you know what happens
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nexus_man:
Thanks. Its the deal breaker for me right now. 3g/4g is spotty in my area and wifi is a must. Was getting aggravating turning off and on when I was in the areas. Overall Vanir flies and is pretty stable but the wifi issue was annoying. Oh forgot to mention, it was a complete wipe and a clean flash.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrdunn:
I use the app WIFI Roaming Fix on Play and it seems to help the wifi problem for me. Takes a bit for it to learn.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Txwolf1980:
Did you restore the access points from Tibu?

Edit. Got to my yard, and it hooked in just fine.

Different physical router, but same ssid, security, and p password.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
I'm still on CMetal because its blowing anything else I try away.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] heXacode:
On Vanir 4.4.2 12/25 build using full gapps package (not stock or mini module) and ASKP Grande kernel.

Everything seems to be running pretty good except 2 things. Trickster Mod app shows CPU Usage constantly running anywhere from 90% to 100% when doing something or just idling and monitoring the CPU Usage. There was no apps restored at the time of this so I assume either one of the apps from the package is going full throttle on the CPU or something from system is keeping it high.

Lastly, Bluetooth paired fine but there is a horrible garbling sound that happens when I'm doing stuff on the phone. If music is playing through Bluetooth and I back out or pull down notification bar or anything I touch it emits a garbled sound. If I don't touch the screen it is fine.

I've yet to explore other areas. These are the 2 that stick out at the moment.

Camera also force closes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gohamstergo:
can you give a quick summary of why you prefer it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ldp_frog:
As he said...it blows anything else away. The speed and reliability is better than anything else I've ever run on this phone, that's for sure.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
I've tried omni. I've tried carbon. I always keep coming back to CMetal because its just smoother and ruins better all around.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] palosjr:
True. I am hesitant to try any other build because I dont want to lose the stability I have with CMetal. I know there is Nandroid, but still. If it aint broke, dont fix it... (I know that goes against most everything Flashaholics believe in)
