No problem, just post the test kernels, I will try them whenever I'm not too busy with my everydays' life ....

[MENTION=3033992]kasper_h[/MENTION]

EDIT: the boot doesn't get completed, after "starting apps" took forever, I've checked live ADB logcat and it displays randomly:

I/ServiceManager( 555): Waiting for sevice media.audio_flinger...

I/ServiceManager( 555): Waiting for sevice media.audio_flinger...

Question, what are the major differences in this rom and the "regular" Mackay rom? I have read a bit about OMNI but I don't find any concrete answers.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ommadawn101:
As a matter of fact I hate all android boot animation, you never know if the device is actually doing something, or if it is stuck

I wish someone would come up with a boot animation which includes a progress bar of some sort

same with me...after make some final blow it work....even last display said setup wizard has close,
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:
Just flash OMNI build zip again and wipe dalvik+cache, the reboot works perfectly well then.

---------- Post added at 03:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:55 PM ----------

AMAIK, the "regular" Mackay's concept is the CyanogenMod idea, with some kasper_h's changes and OMNI is based on the OMNI philosophy
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ommadawn101:
I am glad to say I was proven wrong! It actually did the trick!

Thank you (the thank you button was also used...)

However, this, I must say, is a major obstacle for daily users.

How the hell would one know he has to change a certain setting in mackay settings in order to do a simple update? That was not there before, and it should be fixed asap
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] porman:
I've understood so far, but what exactly is the differences in the OMNI rom?

Visual and functional, not so much interested in the actual philosophy.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fmc000:
You're welcome!

I'll let Kasper answer to this.

Do you happen to know what had happened to our root?

Since when do we lose root in between updates? This is useless!

[MENTION=3033992]kasper_h[/MENTION]

This is what you say in OP about update:

Update:

-Flash ROM

-Reboot your phone

(no wipes or other things needed, just flash & reboot)

There's no mention of changing the low ram settings in makcay settings, or else, the boot will never finish

There's no mention of losing root access

please clarify, and correct
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Drugoli:
Alright, got a couple of things to report about the newest version:

Did a flash on top of version from 5. nothing else.

First of all, during boot after the flash, it somehow crashed and rebooted. It finished the boot though and I got into the phone, so no idea what went wrong. Few things I noticed :

The brightness was extremely high, until I turned auto off and on again.

Clicking the reply button on messages in the notification drawer, would crash the messaging app.

Some apps (didn't try many) crashed the first time I tried to launch them. One of these were the browser.

Lost root access. Noticed this when I tried to change the DPI through the File Manager. (Used to 200 DPI instead of 240)

When I tried to multitask switch between different applications, they would layer ontop of each other. See the picture: http://imgur.com/PNWHT2k. Both the messaging app and Google Play still were functional, no idea about the file manager since only the top bar was showing.

So far I've tried to enable low mem in the Mackay settings and rebooted, but I'm currently stuck in a bootloop. Reflashed previous version and was able to get root and everything working again, so for now I'm sticking with that version.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] F4b0s:
Well...

Thanks for your answers ! ;)

I followed your advices and the next install worked but yet the Google welcome app crashes after choosing my country and language...

What the hell have I again missed.... :crying:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:
Calm down mate, just flash again in the recovery UPDATE-SuperSU-v.1.91 and your root will be back. It is a known thing with all Omni roms, also with another devices.

Kasper is working on it.... this is development WIP, so nobody guarantees even that your phone won't explode by the next update. I find it so much more interesting than "stable" versions, but you may be the type for stable ones. Or am I wrong?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ommadawn101:
Under Settings>Backup & reset There's no data at all!!!!

No back up my data,

No Automatic restore

No backup account!!!

The only thing that appears there is Factory Data reset

Google play store is constantly reporting "no connection"

I think I'll go back to the previous build
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fmc000:
I didn't try the latest update as I'm not using this ROM anymore but for the 24-Jan release I did not lose root when I installed SuperSU as a system app along with his backup script. All the infos are in the SuperSU settings pane.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ommadawn101:
I am using beta software for 20 years already!

Part of my job is Alpha testing as well...So, mate, don't tell me to calm down, please...

I like it, that's why I am here

But, if I am told that a major problem was found several days ago, one that causes your device not to boot upon update, and the OP was not changed accordingly, it makes me uneasy. This is basic stuff
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
Just to be clear, I merged some changes related to the lowram flag, which I hoped would solve the issue. I have also removed the lowram setting from the kernel & Mackay settings completely. So this issue will be solved completely in the next build (but also without leaving users the choice of settings lowram).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ayed78:
lol..flash your own risk...same happen to me..there way to solve...dont blame to developer...no rom is perfect...or just use official rom gingerbread..no root no mod
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ommadawn101:
Please check the problem with google play. It constantly says "no connection"

and also the empty data under settings>backup & reset (they are probably connected since there's no backup account, google play cannot connect)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hollandais:
I had the same problem this morning, and I told here what I did.

Just download and flash the latest core gapps 4.4.2 and it will be OK.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
1. I have more options in backup&restore, try reflashing gapps

2. Problems with play store can often be solved by either deleting app data or reverting the app updates.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:
No Google Play problems here.

In general, no problems :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] popic_u:
The directory in the download link is empty :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:
I had that very same problem with the last build.

Now with today's one all is perfect.

Maybe try clean flash and just restore your /data from the last Omni nandroid backup done with TWRP after the reboot, kasper_h's flashing order from the OP was working perfectly fine for me:

wipe all incl formatting /system

flash build zip

reboot into OS

reboot into recovery, flash gapps, SuperSU 1.91 zip and restore only /data

reboot

Also dirty flash should work, but I was using SlimKat until I was waiting for this update :)

BTW, I'm using mini Core-Gapps (1-16), the 16,1 MB ones. Those work great for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ommadawn101:
I think I get it now.

There was a special test build some days ago, which did not appear on the OP

You guys installed it, and suffered all of the problems I mentioned (losing root, not booting unless low ram was ticked, Gapps had to be re-flashed)

So, for you, all these problems are in the past tense :laugh:

O.K. reflashing Gapps did the trick for backup & reset, and for google play as well, although I got an avalanche of FC from all of google apps, one at a time, I hope that's it for now...

Dear [MENTION=3033992]kasper_h[/MENTION]

I have two questions:

1.

The dark Omni mode is fantastic, I love it. My question regarding this is: check the attached screenshots, the darker one is (of course) made in dark mode, another in normal mode in "Messaging" app. Wouldn't it be great to change the color of SMS letters (in dark mode) to white? It would make the text much better visible.

Can you access that part of the ROM configuration or is it automatically configured by Omni that way?

2.

As you wanted to check the kernel and TWRP soon anyway, can you please also check why is it not possible to flash another ROM or recovery in TWRP? My each attempt has failed so I had to take the long way around by flashing a stock fw with Odin, root, flash CM etc....

Thanks in forward!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
1. Solved in next release

2. There are some issues when you want to flash older zip files. Modern kk ROMs should work fine.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saszseb:
For getting older ROMs flash Sema_3.3.0 in recovery, then reboot recovery and flash an older ROM!

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ommadawn101:
Thank you very much!

Just to be on the safe side, coming from yesterday's build, should I be doing anything special before flashing today's ROM?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
No, I just did a dirty flash myself. lowram is now disabled by default, no matter what the user setting was before flashing. So that should be fine.

I received some report from people that long-pressing power button causes a warm reboot. I have not been able to reproduce this and therefore couldn't get a logcat (logcat can only be captured with adb in this case as the phone reboots). If someone has the same issue and is able to reproduce it, I would be very happy with a logcat of the event.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Drugoli:
New build is much better, no problems flashing this one! Also, I noticed the back and menu buttons light up now, when I have a notification! Thank you for getting that feature working again!

I'm still not sure though, how the whole multi window thing is supposed to work. Trying to just switch between apps using multitask like I'm used too, only ends up making a very weird multi window thing. An option to completely disable this feature would be nice :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yossi102:
Why is this happens?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
That is the multi-window feature. Seems to cause issues. Will remove until more stable.

Accessing external sd from TWRP

Thanks a lot for Fixing that issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:
[MENTION=2393302]MrOban[/MENTION] kasper_h knows it and works right now on it. It is kernel related. I'm sure he will find very soon the reason, as the TWRP was able to read the external SD card in the previous build (where the PC couldn't)

---------- Post added at 03:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:10 PM ----------

Thanks, mate - I will try next time that way.

I didn't really want to flash older Android version, I stay on KK, but I swap now often between Omni Mackay and SlimKat as I like both so much and want to contribute to the development of both.

Flashing of the Omni Mackay comming from SlimKat is no problem.

Flashing of the SlimKat comming from Omni Mackay was usually aborted.

Back about ext sd card.

Yesterday I've tried several times without luck.

I formatted my 32 Go sdcard witm my computer in:

FAT, and saw it in my sgs, but not in the computer, only int sdcard was shown.

exFAT and didn't see it in my sgs and in my computer

NTFS and didn't see it in my sgs and in my computer.

Then I did the same and checked the sdcard in my GS4 mini:

I saw it with FAT and exFAT in my phone an could connect it to my computer.

Today I found an older sdcard (1 Go) from an old phone and I putted it in my sgs. The sgs says "preparing your sdcard" and I saw it immediately with root explorer and file manager, I could write on it and when I connected my sgs through usb to the computer I saw both int and ext sdcards.

The difference between yesterday and today is only the new nightly, but that doesn't change anything because I tried again all I did yesterday.

Only one thing changes, with my ext 32 Go sdcard in my sgs the pin code check is very late, first there's a message telling Check of the sdcard, and a few minutes later the pincode is checked.

After that the sgs has some problems:

with Root explorer or file manager both int and ext cards seems empty.

But something strange happens, for the first time in Settings/Stockage the button for installing the sdcard was active.

I pushed it, and the message "preparing the sdcard" appears, but 1 minute later settings goes in FC and I couldn't try it again.

So, I went back to an sgs without ext sdcard, and pincode check is immediatly when booting. :crying:

That's nice. Always thought that Omni was way back to CM, since they go a smaller team. But I was wrong, they are ahead.

This ROM is nice and comfortable, and has every feature I need.

But I stumbled upon some problems, which are:

1. Buggy multiwindow

2.State of double tap status bar neither saving nor working.

3.I defined long press back button to kill app, doesn't work.

SW reboot on Power Button long press, will file adb tomorrow.

Nice suggestion: special characters on keyboard main windowin non English languages, like german. This was in CM.

I really like your work!

4. Confirmed, SW reboot on long press power button

Plus

I had to re-pair all my BT devices, as if I did a factory reset (which I did not). I don't know if that was the result of the 24th rom, or the 24B

4. The back-to-kill function needs a somewhat longer press to work, but then it works for me

5. I will look into the LatinIME from CM. Which specific keys are you referring to?

While you are at it, can you please compare it with google keyboard, where when you long press the period button, you get a lot more choices than with AOSP keyboard?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MrOban:
Keyboard layout

I 've attached the different Keyboards in the order Omni english, Omni german, CM english, CM german.

Omni english has all keys with a second function but the colour of the second function ist black on Grey.

Omni german has no second function on the y-m-row.

CM english is like Omni but with light Grey on dark Grey.

CM german has no second function on keys a and s.

I preferred CM-Layout with second fuction on all keys. light Grey on dark Grey is better readable to my old tired eyes than black on Grey. Better would be for me to have the colour of the second function in White, not Grey.

At the Moment I allways replace the Omni-Keyboard with the CM-Keyboard for better readability and to have more keys with second functions.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
Fixed the keyboard:

https://github.com/kasperhettinga/android_packages_inputmethods_LatinIME/commits/mackay-omni

The top 2 commits were missing in my LatinIME when I compared it to CM. So I picked those up and now it should be exactly the same :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MrOban:
Thanks.

If you really want to change the German layout, please keep in mind, that a and s have to have double function because of the language. A has ä etc. S has ß etc.

On my non rooted S3 I use Kii keyboard, which added @ to a and # to s.
