OmniKang by finnq & Schubi (Android 4.4)

This is an OmniROM based ROM with lots of cherry picks and modifications.

OmniKang is compatible with the official OmniROM nightlies.

So you normally you can flash OmniKang just over an OmniROM nightly without wiping anything. It's just the same procedure as flashing a new nightly.

You can also do the other way round without expecting problems.

I won't describe here in detail how to flash OmniKang because it's almost exactly the same procedure as for OmniROM. So please have a look here if you don't know. However, you don't have to flash Superuser manually, as it's already in OmniKang.

Main features

Android 4.4 and all the features of OmniROM

OpenPDroid

From time to time we release builds with OpenPDroid, but our nightlies don't have OpenPDroid support!

Lock screen notifications

Displays notifications on lock screen. You can swipe out notifications to dismiss them.

HALO

ParanoidAndroid's HALO Notification Bubble.

CM ribbons

QuickSettings ribbon controls in notification drawer

Dark UI (TRDS)

Change UI to black theme

NavBar Height Mod

You can set the height of the navigation bar from 20 dp up to stock 48 dp.

Center Clock Mod

You can move the clock to the middle of the status bar.

Battery Bar

Shows a bar with the battery status above the status bar or above the navigation bar.

NFC Polling Mode

Enable NFC polling on lock screen or when screen is of.

Advanced network activity indicator

For example, you can enable a two line indicator for up- and downstream (MiUi style).

Advanced low battery indicator options

You can disable the warning dialog for low battery warning and get a notification or only a sound instead.

More features

Status bar: Clock with custom date

Recent RAM bar: Displays a RAM bar on the recent apps view.

Lock screen: See through

Option to disable full screen keyboard in landscape mode

Option to enable notification light when screen is on

Custom battery circle colours and animation speed

OmniSwitch

Status bar: Change colour

and many more, discover them yourself! (Of course all the OmniROM features too!)

For more detailed information, see the changelog!

Credits

First of all thanks to the developers of OmniROM and all who are contributing to it or uploading code to Gerrit!

And of course thanks to all the other developers and ROM projects, from which we pick a lot of our features: CyanogenMod, BeerGang, SlimROMs, ParanoidAndroid, AOKP, CarbonDev, ChameleonOS.

Excellent!!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bvt-1:
Yes, it's really great ... know this rom from another forum :thumbup::thumbup:

... N5 rulez ...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Kreateablaze:
Tried flashing, get "unfortunately, setup wizard has stopped" after I choose language.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Der_Schubi:
We're working on it. Yesterdays build is working fine. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] WizeGuyDezignz:
Until they fix it, one way around it is to flash the ROM with no GAPPS and boot. Then reboot into recovery and flash GAPPS. I just did that and it's working no problem. :good:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Der_Schubi:
Yes. Its only the setupwizard what is screwed up. eveything else works.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] WizeGuyDezignz:
Excellent job on this! So glad to see this come out of nowhere with all of the features that I like and/or want!

One quick observation....do you think that you guys will get around to updating the charging LED light so it stays solid instead of pulsate? I know a lot of ROMs have incorporated that now and was just curious if you might be able to do that?

Thanks and great job! :good:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Der_Schubi:
Thats an hardware issue. No way out. Same as in TWRP, LG decided not to implement Date in lower levels, so Backups are named with 1970. :D
[Nexus 5 Android Development] WizeGuyDezignz:
The charging LED is a hardware issue? Other ROMs on this phone have the light to stay on now, so I was just curious if you were going to implement it.

I'm not being rude but I just wasn't sure if you were responding to me or not. :thumbup:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Der_Schubi:
Hm, strange. My last info was that this is hardware related. Could you name one of these ROMs please?

---------- Post added at 06:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:24 PM ----------

BTW, in the moment there is an FC of SystemUI on every boot. Thats nomal and not harmfull. Just ignore it please. We still didnt find anything related in logcats.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] aheeejd:
Nice, gonna check this out. Dl-ing now. Will report back. Thank you for this.

Nice work :thumbup:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] WizeGuyDezignz:
Sure, no problem. While we are at it, I also noticed the LED light has another issue that has popped up on other ROMs. When you are plugged in and charging the phone and get a notification, the charging LED will turn off and won't turn back on unless you unplug and re-plug the phone in.

With all of that being said....this particular ROM has the LED functioning 100% the way I have described that it should: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2610693

I hope you can figure it out from their code, because this ROM would easily be my daily if fixed! Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] CroW_D:
I remember you schubi i think from s3? One feature request so far very good but i am missing aokp custom system animations :(

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 5 mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 5 Android Development] jtwlbz:
what kinda optimization does this rom have?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Der_Schubi:
Animations are in OmniROM Gerrit and may will be merged soon.

And no, We never built for S3. only S2, Nexus 4 and Nexus 5. ;)

---------- Post added at 08:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 PM ----------

what optimization do you mean???
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mondaza:
Do it have OTA as other job yours?

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Der_Schubi:
No OTA in the moment...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] CroW_D:
Just for info who will use this rom. This rom runs so smooth with the New zeta kernel. Keep up the good work schubi and co. But i know you but i dont know where :D

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 5 mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Der_Schubi:
One word to flashing custom kernels:

This rom comes with Koush's SuperUser. All kernels without "AnyKernel" support, so those with RAM disc, will overwrite needed files for Superuser.

So, if available, flash a CM version of the kernel. This one will keep the files. Otherwise just flash SuperSU afterwards.

As soon as SuperSU is installed, the SuperUser menu in Settings will change to SuperSU. SuperSU then is hidden from app drawer.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] -Johannes-:
Great ROM, works perfectly with faux kernel :)

One question, how to turn off, that my screen turns automatically on when I take my phone out of my pocket?

Also trds doesn't work well, if I change something in settings, for expamle turn lockscreen notifications off, it's not black anymore and I have to enable it again.

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 5 mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Paradoxxx:
Woha, Two devs I used to be following came to Nexus 5 scene lately, CrDroid, and now Schubi, that's really cool to see you there !

I'll try this lil bad boy asap. :p
[Nexus 5 Android Development] chris6278:
Hey schubi i loved your cyankang rom for the nexus 4, do u plan on bringin it to the N5? That would be awesome. Love ur roms!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Shanks:
OK you guys say this rom is compatible with omni rom nightlies, so does that mean we can delta update?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Der_Schubi:
The automatically turning on of the display is eigther the pocket mode of Active Display or Lockscreen Notifications.

The TRDS problem is well known, but we did'nt find a solution yet.

We only waited this long to create a thread here. I'm building for N5 since the first days of December. :D

CyanKang is stopped. But OmniKang has the very same features, only different base. And its already available for N4. ;)

No, sorry. But you can manually flash OmniKang over OmniROM and vice versa.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] kenshinta:
Once I had my N5 I never expected to try an kang of Omnirom but couldnt helpo trying Omnikang out since it was mostly my daily driver on my n4.

However I instantly see an issue - KeyguardTestactivity isnt letting my phone sleep and eating a huge amount of RAM. Ive tried turning all the settings and apps related to the lockscreen off but it persists even when I FC it manually.

BTW is KeyguardTestactivity HALO?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vsot13:

Maybe make this an option, because unlike you I need to know on which Wifi I am connected.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] c@p:
Fixing charching LED etc. was a commit from cm. It must be included in Rom and Kernel. Most of the N5 Kernels are supporting this feature meanwhile and Hellscore is one of them.

Slim has it included too.

IMHO Faux doesn't support it until yet.

Tapatalked by neXus 5

---------- Post added at 12:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:27 PM ----------

This Rom has this feature because it is based on CM - so it is included as a standard feature ;)

All non CM roms must include the commit for this first.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] venelar:
Is NFC toggle in the quick settings in this rom? I figure it isn't since it's omni based, but just figured i'd ask.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] lomniom:
If the devs decide not to implement anything, users are free to change Rom.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Der_Schubi:
None of such things...

Normally our buildbot builds nightlies. But in fact we have troubles from time to time. :D

I plan to integrate it, yes.

No, same as in Omni...

Question, would I need to add USB-OTG support or is it apart of the rom already?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] silenus:
I have the same question about OTG support integration that I am not sure it's implement in Omnikang ...?

And maybe you will, one day, find a way to remove the google persistant search bar ?

thanks guys for incredible work and your marvellous rom!!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] -Maverick-:
I just got around to checking, OmniKang does have USB-OTG support. :good:

There is no option in quick tiles to un-mount the USB, so you'll have to go to Setting>Storage to un-mount.

edit: don't use franco Kernel, as great as it is, it breaks USB-OTG support.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] silenus:
Yeah :) So i can buy a cable without any fear ^^ Thank you !
[Nexus 5 Android Development] -Maverick-:
I use a couple of these. A bit more than a cable, but it's so much better for me.

FYI tried to download the 03-20 version at http://erlangen.ccc.de/~schubi/roms/

the hammerhead version was only 107mb and when I checked the archive it was broke.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Der_Schubi:
Not the Slim or PA one. May I'll try the CM one when they port it to kitkat.

Whoops, this was a broken upload. Please download 20140319 or wait for the next one. :D

I still really enjoy this ROM, great balance of features, it really needs more exposure than it gets
[Nexus 5 Android Development] eRajesh:
Is it just me or double tap to sleep on the status bar is broken on this ROM?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] FPSKunal:
Yup seems to be not working..
[Nexus 5 Android Development] kenshinta:
03-29 : 2x tap works on the NAV bar not the status bar. It should be explained though if that is the actual intent and the description is erroneous or vice versa.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] reaper000:
I second the motion. Double tap on nav bar is what turns screen off on 4/7 release as well
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mic213:
I see a new nightly up, gonna test out now...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mic213:
Been a lot of commits in omni recently, can't wait for a new nightly. Best rom I've had on nexus 5.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Dwayne01:
Will one of you next Kang include themes?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Kristoffer55:
I saw there was a new nightley, but no build for hammerhead yet? Is it comming, or did you guys stop with the hammerheads builds? :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] reaper000:
I hope not, but it certainly looks like the devs have stopped building for hammerhead. [emoji20]
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Kristoffer55:
Wow that makes me a really sad panda :C I was using PA, but I wanted to switch over to OMNI.. This build had everything i wanted.. And then i was ready to switch, it stopped.

These builds are my testbuilds and they are highly experimental. Also the "server" is my private dsl, so when you download there, I can't surf anymore. :p

Hammerhead builds of course are continued, but the Jenkins build server is dead and I'll have to build manually. I'm about to port the whole Slim NavBar / NavRing and Lockscreen Shortcuts. This will take some more days. Stay tuned!
