so far in testing this rom everything looks and runs great! my only question is how can I govern the cpu speed down? it's draining the battery too fast.

I cant seem to find any settings for it. tried using system tuner but that app doesn't seem to work. I will set it down to 600mhz max and it will still go to 1400 and drain the battery! is there another app that is better?

Thanks

I haven't tried it on the glide but No-frills CPU is good

You must first enable developer options (rapidly tap on the bottom item in "about phone" I think it's build number) and then you will get a performance option.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] deguerra08:
can someone tell me how. I can fix the keyboard light I've tried all 3 zip installation I have not had results
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dbrannon79:
Thanks!

when I opened the performance menu I noticed both the min and max speed were set to "0" . I reset the min to 216 and the max to 608 also toggled the apply on boot to on.

after closing the menu and re opening it they dont seem to stick! any ideas?

[Samsung Captivate Glide] bubor:
Omnirom doesnt support keyboard backlight, you must install user space app to control it.

That is qwertyled, you can found link in OP, that isnt zip, its apk like normal android app
[Samsung Captivate Glide] mrk2815:
i notice the same thing. I also see a major battery drain with this build. i dont know what can be the cause of it. But i am now getting about 5 or so hours use out of this rom when i was getting a full day an half out of the january 9 rom. So I am wondering what can it be with jan 30 rom .
[Samsung Captivate Glide] LaizureBoy:
Hey bubor any chance you'll be able to get the built-in screenrecorder to work?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] mrk2815:
i have a question. What the best settings for governor and i/o scheduler to get best performance and battery life. What should be the optimum setting for min and max frequencies as well with our kernel. I would appreciate an explanation on this one.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] mrk2815:
any chance on getting a fix for the performance setting not sticking on Omni rom build 30 jan. I have gone back to the older build as it was a less battery drain rom then the current rom. any chance of this being fixed in a future build. Hoping for some new development love for Omni in the upcoming days or weeks!!!!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] mrk2815:
just want to let you know I did another wipe of my system and reinstalled the 30 January 2014build. I also went out and got a new battery for the glide. I now getting a full day of usage out of the glide. I think I may have had a worn battery having the original stock battery for more then 2 years so I am thinking that these batteries don't last more then 2 years. So after I got the new battery on board thing are fine with the build, the only thing I switched around for the governor settings using rom tool box pro and now things are working for me really well. Thanks for the great work bubor. Hopefully we will see new features and upcoming builds from Omni community in the upcoming month.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] mrk2815:
hello just installed 15 february Omni build its going well so far. but need to do further testing an will report back.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jmh363905:
Some things I've noticed about 2/15/14 build:

The option to have volume keys wake screen from a locked state does not commit.

GPS seems to get a quicker fix in this build!

Google Search causes phone to freeze while it crashes when opening wallpaper selection (seems to work normally fine after first crash).

Some general i927 questions on this and any ROM other than stock I've noticed that maybe someone can fill me in (I'm a new owner of an i927 and have looked around and can't seem to get any clarification):

Is there any fix in sight for the audio delay that happens after using the Google Voice Search? I've noticed a temporary remedy is to let the phone sit for a few seconds before trying to play any audio.

Also, any news on the camera fixed rotation? Can anyone explain in detail or provide a link that I may have over looked explaining what exactly the reason for being unable to take "portrait" pictures?

Lastly, am I the only one experiencing the Maps (or Navigation) app screen going black and having to be killed if you switch to another program or the home screen and back to the Maps app? I've noticed that this is pretty much with all builds of the Google Maps except for the one that comes preinstalled on stock ICS.

Thanks guys! Great ROM. Look forward to future updates!!!

[MENTION=1558730]jmh363905[/MENTION] the maps black screen problem is fixed by using a older version of maps....i use version 6.14 it works fine.....it has something to do with the cpu not supporting neon instruction set(mentioned by senior member here)....
[Samsung Captivate Glide] deguerra08:
I have the same problem with the map, when another application running and return to the map is black in omni and cm too
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jmh363905:

I had the same thing with maps, its a bug in the app from Google. I used titanium backup and removed it, downloaded the older version that had the navigate icon in the app drawer, it works fine!!.

I know this is an off topic question, but I just purchased another glide, it still has all the stock un-rooted 4.0.4 rom installed. is there a way to extract the complete rom into a flashable zip before I commence rooting and installing kit-kat?

Thanks
[Samsung Captivate Glide] grtsarav:
nandroid backup using custom recovery...
[Samsung Captivate Glide] mrk2815:
I don't know how but i lost root on the last build. But I got it back by reinstalling super su through recovery with some help . Does this happen if the rom is updated? Can this super su be build into the rom like CM so this will not happen? Just wondering. its a very stable rom an its my daily driver compared to CM 11. Features are being added with every build. soon it will be as powerful as cm 11. Since I don't use most of the features of cm 11 and I wanted an AOSp rom that's wy I went with Omni rom 4.4.2 over CM 11.

---------- Post added at 07:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:49 PM ----------

the only thing I mis in Omni rom compared ot CM rom is the ability to answer call with the home button. I wish that feature will be added into Omni rom in future builds. That's a nice feature to have in omnie
[Samsung Captivate Glide] mrk2815:
is it possible to use Tinyalsa audio from cm 11 for Omni rom. Will it work or not. I would like ot know before I test this one out. I would like ot have the Skype but having audio issues when using voip apps and so I wa wondering if I could just use Tinyalsa audio from cm 11 for Omni rom an then aht would work. I would like ot know if anyone has tried and if any luck with the theory of it working on Omni rom a its working n cm 11. Just wondering about this one.

i see no one else is really complaining about the tether option not working, so It must just be me...

I know theres a 'tethering fix" for the samsung captivate for ICS/other roms, but I haven't tested it for omnirom 4.4.

I've been running omnirom as my daily driver for some time, and today, the one time I want/need the tethering to work, its not working :(

I suppose I should have tested it earlier.

Sooo, all those links i posted with tethering fixes...yep, none of the files are up anymore... :( any ideas with how to get the wifi tethering to work?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jmh363905:
I had used OmniROM for a long while, but because of this, I switched to CM11.0 (bubor's) and I have been quite content. I know this isn't the best solution: "switch operating systems" essentially, but I gotta say, CM11 seems to be running smoother for me. There's small things I miss about Omni (contextual status bar in notification drawer, opaque lock screen, ability to set what pressing volume button adjusts, just to name a few) but as you can see from my list, most of them are negligible.

If you find a fix, please post.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bubor:
wifi tether fix, and update.

I dont have gsm, but my phone is broken. Please test it.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jmh363905:
Flashing now... Will report back.

A. Love the new boot animation, but it doesn't loop properly. Majority of sequence is black screen leaving one to wonder if it's doing anything.

B. WiFi tethering working again. Haven't tested USB or Bluetooth methods, but I assume same.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] The_Bizzel:
Flashed the latest build. Wifi tethering is working! But now i cant get the keyboard lights to work now. I uninstalled then reinstalled qwertyled app, but still a no go :(
[Samsung Captivate Glide] The_Bizzel:
rookie mistake. didn't reinstall superSU. but now..i dont see supersu in my app drawer. i can pull it up via titanium backup and what not. oddest thing. its not hidden or anything.

I'm gonna reflash the latest build this weekend. see if i can get these damn gremlins outta my phone.

oh, does anyone have the problem of deleting an image in the gallery, and then after reboot, the image reappears? im not talking about the thumbnail, i mean the image. the only way to totally get rid of it is to go into say, Rootexplorer or what not, and deleting the image. anyone?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] The_Bizzel:
yep, since upgradin to the latest build, somethings buggy with installed apps. some apps don't appear in the app drawer after install. for example, downloaded the amazon app store, then downloaded a game. the game icon appears, but the amazon app store doesn't. now i have nova launcher, so when i click on my app drawer screen, i have a tab on the upper right that says "manage apps", and i can see it there, and the box that says "hide app from drawer" isn't marked. I can also see it under installed apps and in titanium backup.

im gonna do a fresh flash tonight after work, and im hoping these bugs go away.

also, when it comes to forcing apps to the sdcard, i've always used Link2Sd, which requires a partitioning of the sdcard to ext2, ext3, or ext4. for some reason if the sd card is formated to any of those, while using this rom, it won't read the sd card. at all. is this a KitKat issue or an Omnirom issue?

I guess I'm looking for a solution to that, because it worked when i used 4.2.2. Im open to other suggestions on using another 'force data to sd" app.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] The_Bizzel:
so, with kitkat, full write access to SDCard has been limited. But, i saw this post: http://lifehacker.com/sdfix-allows-kitkat-users-full-sd-card-write-access-1548731298

I downloaded sdfix, and at least with omnirom, I can push stuff to sdcard again! it works on SDCards formatted to ext2, ext3, and ext4 from what I tested, and makes Link2SD work again! YAY!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] tienlp:
my phone sometimes freezes when i press the power button to wake it up, i mean the button lights are on but the screen is still of, have to remove battery and wait for a while, anyone see the same thing ?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Dante1990:
Problem !!!!

Well i am using this ROM for quite a while now and there seems some problems

1) BLUETOOTH -->> When i am sending files through my windows powered laptop through bluetooth it just gives and error. I am not being able to use bluetooth to send or receive files.

2) Wifi toggle - Most of the times it just stays in a loop when starting the wifi through setting or notification drawer shortcut.

In order to make it work i have to restart the phone while the toggle still in loop OR i have to go inside any different applications and then switch Wifi on so that m not at homescreen ( Does not works all the time)..

3) One of the main issues is when we choose google now launcher as our default launcher the default music and other music apps seems to give distorted sounds when we go the homescreen..

I go to music -> play a song and the song is played normally -> tap home button -> sounds gets jagged up and distorted

But this is not the case with the default launcher which comes with the ROM. Google now launches listening feature seems to be creating this issue maybe.. Can somebody explain this ??

Please fix these issues..
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Makshow:
1) Haven't encountered bluetooth issues for now, so can't help (but I didn't use this ROM much). Where is an error you see, on laptop or on phone?

2) Wifi toggle - it's kernel related, not ROM, and there's only one 4.4 kernel alternative for now, you can try it: grakernel. But after flashing go to setting - performance - cpu and set max cpu freq to 1000 Mhz.

3) Every time the phone starts recording sounds it distorts playback (google now, dictaphone, VoIP), and there still no fix except tinyalsa that broke sound in GSM outgoing calls. If you don't use your phone as phone :) , you can use it.

FINALLY I have enough total useless garbage posts to post here - "thanks," XDA.

Been using the most recent build (omni-4.4.2-20140402-i927-HOMEMADE.zip) for a few weeks now. Mostly works well, with a few caveats:

GPS does not work very well at all, by default. I couldn't get it to function at all, in fact, and I had to install Kombatant's GPS Fix to get any functionality - and even that isn't great.

I've had a few crashes, one which I can reproduce:

I flip open my keyboard to write text messages, which rotates the screen. If I flip the keyboard back in after I tell the phone to send the message, but BEFORE it actually gives a "sent" result, the phone will crash. This means I've had to be much more careful when sending texts.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] VinayS:
even sending the normal text messages from the default app crashes the process..
[Samsung Captivate Glide] snarfies:
Not on my phone. Mine send just fine flipped or un-flipped. But if you flip before the message is actually sent, it doesn't crash the process, it crashes the entire PHONE. There is no error message, the phone has to be powered back on.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] thefusor:
Found a way to automate voip to gsm, and regarding update

About the Update

The june update is working fine i do have a little overheating problem while charging though anyway to fix that or something

and also a weird thing has been happening that my phone wont stay off while charging, keeps auto switching on.

Google hotword search is broken , keeps crashing for me been a while but i found a fix.

Automation of Tinyalsas-Audio Fix for VOIP

I recently noticed noticed that Omnirom has the tinyalsas library switch built in (just need to shell the command)and i did'nt need to flash it (not sure), i also found that i can automate the switching mechanism with tasker,by using alsas command automated to phone ringing.

Its working successfully..gonnna test it more though and it needs tasker continuously running.

the tinyalsas voip mode is fixing the google search(NOW) and audio lag .

so as a request can we have that automated before calls bubor as in can we have a background service running which will auto switch .. will be good to have.

Can we Have a little more

I have been playing aroud a little with ROM and bubor is it possible to have some things like the CM 11 calculator, in built Terminal Emulator in future updates, the gps icon back :)

just a few ideas also , list animations look really good in OMNI rom cause of the default font and spacing.

Also an important thing which will make it convinient would be a toggle for the capacitive button backlight switch, they auto switch on always at '0' brightness.

AS ALWAYS AMAZING WORK BUBOR and i am greatful for your work, omnirom is just beautiful and perfect

oh and i tried CM 11 i used it for a week and i noticed my phone would constantly stay hot 47C above.think it might be a bug or maybe my fault dont know :(

switched back to OMNI love it

THANKS A LOT :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bitemark01:
I tried putting this ROM on my wife's phone, and I thought it was brilliant!

The only downside is, I was simply not able to hold a GPS lock with it. I tried applying the GPS fix that bubor mentions in the CM11 thread, but no dice.

Anyone have any suggestions? For what it's worth this device is technically the i927R (Canadian device on Rogers network), but I'm pretty sure the hardware is the same. I tried downloading the zip file Kombatant offers in that thread, and changing the .us pool servers to .ca, but that's it. Maybe I should just leave the files untouched?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] snarfies:
Even with the Kombatant GPS fix, it takes quite a while to get a GPS lock the first time I power the phone on. By "quite a while," I mean a full 1-2 minutes. But once I get that lock, the phone can re-acquire the lock within, say 20 seconds.

Did you install GPS Status & Toolbox as well?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bitemark01:
I did! And I can get a lock, sometimes in 1 minute, sometimes as much as 3-5 minutes. And sure, if I try again right away, I can re-establish quickly. But if it's been a few hours, I have to go through the 1-5 minute ordeal again, and it will often lose the gps signal while driving (clearly announced by the Google Navigation).

Also I've never seen more than 6 satellites, though usually only 4 come in. I've never gotten the 9 satellites another poster has mentioned.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] snarfies:
I've gotten as many as 11, but that's rare. Typically I get no more than 7.

You may just need to experiment with different setting in gps.conf and sirfgps.conf. You might want to compare the Kombatant versions to the default stock version to the default OmniROM version.

Well, clearly the stock OmniROM version sucks, but it will at least tell you what NOT to do...
