This ROM is great, file explorer is unnecessary, es explorer is in superable. 14hrs normal use and 73‰ battery remain, I never got that on stock or Marcin's Roms. My only complain is Netflix.

OMX needs a little tweak.

Automatic time zone is bugged also, but by setting/unsetting it solve it.

This best ROM for our phone you make it even better. Thank you Golden guy. Battery is now better than stock.

New features are excellent and fun to use, thank you Android-Andi. Your work also show power of collaboration. :)

[MENTION=5153662]Android-Andi[/MENTION]:

Thx for the code contributions.

Do you or any of the devs/contributors have by any chance an idea about the app-drawer problem that it stays at 5 columns no matter what is set?

Could be a screen resolution problem with mdpi screens.

The logcat might not be really useful but:

I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO happy for news features that are so useful. App Circle Bar is so practical, we have all we need instantly in a very fluid circle. So many thanks for your GREAT JOB Golden-Guy and the others who work around this ROM.

I had a little bug that made a FC with Multi windows, but no big problem.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Android-Andi:
[MENTION=5739341]thomson.aa[/MENTION] i didn't found a way to change rows and columns to a different value by default inside the overlay... we have the problem on P31XX, in landscape the text under the icons got cut off... i am still looking for an workaround.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Laserman49:
A stupid question but, did you try to simply reduce the size of the Font ? It could be solve your problem.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] :
So for the I8190N the battery temp is also working.

Also I built the rom from sources and commented the buffering fix out. Just to see if it makes a difference. I does not make a difference to me with the N version.

The app circle is nice btw, good contribution!
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Laserman49:
I have only a little problem with this ROM, when the phone go in deep sleep, everytime I turn it on I have a black screen with only the padlock. When it's not in deep sleep, I have the background of the phone and the apps that I choosed to unlock the phone.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] rovama:
This is the first time I install this ROM, I'm using the GT-i8190L (Latin American version), and so far I noted that battery will only charge 93% max, still need to check how long will last charged though. Unlike CM ROM, in this ROM if you Power OFF the phone while it's charging, it does actually Power OFF.

One of the main reasons I decided to move from stock ROM to Custom ROM's it's because of battery being draining so fast, however using Custom ROM's has improved battery life on my phone so far. Another thing it's the speed, stock ROM was being too slow IMO.

Before using this ROM I was using CM's ROM, but I had some random reboots and battery was not being so good in the last versions. So I hope to have better luck with this one :)

Also in the quick settings pulldown menu the mobile data icon won't change even if it's on or off. But that's just an aesthetic detail.

I'm not sure if there is a way to change the settings so I can enable battery charge icon to display also in number and how to get backlight notifications enabled while phone screen is off.

Thank you so much for your work. I will come back tomorrow and write my personal experience using this ROM.

Cheers :D
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Laserman49:
For your problem of charge, try to remove Battery for about 10 MN, and re-plug it, and try another time to charge it. After, try to Calibrate the Battery,
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] rovama:
Thanks mate, will give it a try :)
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
Thanks mate. :)

There is a bearer indicator (showing "3G" resp. "E", depending on the coverage) displayed on the quick settings tile if mobile data is turned on. In regards to the battery symbol you can change this under "Settings" - "Battery"
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
For netflix, there is a small script provided by Novafusion that sets/updates this line to

<int name="nflx_player_type" value="6" />

in /data/data/com.netflix.mediaclient/shared_prefs/nfxpref.xml

As a quick temp fix, you might want to give it a try and set this value as root directly in this file.

The full script is available via this link on Github.

Let me know if this works out for you.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] rovama:
About the bearer indicator, it's true, but it will only show up if I disable WiFi, no wonder I didn't get anything till I did that :silly:

Found the battery symbol settings :D Thanks a lot.

BTW, do you have in mind to implement BLN (backlight notifications) support? Or can I somehow get notifications with Active display that will blink every x seconds? :confused:
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] cmgonzalez:
I already tried that script for Netflix, don't works. Some marcin or cm commit broke it not sure when or what.

One full charge down! They say that you need at least 2 to 3 cycles to really get the feel of the battery but anyway, the results:

19hrs 16mins of total battery time from 100% to 0% (While I say 100%, its more like 95% since for some reason my battery skips 96-99 and instead from 95 jumps to 100%. Weird)

DSBS Aggressive mode active

3hours of talktime

Plenty of text messages

several hours of WiFi

No mobile data

Verdict - I love the battery. :) While some claim that they have this ROM that can last a whole day, I would gladly exchange the few hours for stability and less bugs. No FC, no hangups, no random reboot and most importantly, no turning off during the night while charging bug.

I encountered no severe issues - just a bit of lag on the UI. Anyway to make it snappier? :D Swiping through contacts sometimes jumps and skips. Other than that, ROM is extremely stable. :)

Also, I'm thinking about greenifying. Any thoughts? :)
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] cmgonzalez:
[MENTION=5473651]golden-guy[/MENTION] there's an app called viral lite, a YouTube player.

Well it plays videos without the pixelation problem, but if I enabled an option called hardware acceleration, GPU video playback, the pixelation problem appears again,just like on normal YouTube app.

Maybe that's the key, some gpu or something option in the sources.

Maybe it helps.

Greenify is the best. Get the donation package! It will let you greenify system apps and keep the notifications from all the apps. I currently have greenified whatsapp and Messenger and I get my notifications right away. Give it a try!

Sorry for the off topic, giving a try to this rom tonight! I'll post feedback later. Thank you golden-guy ;)
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] tetakpatak:
Hey, [MENTION=5473651]golden-guy[/MENTION] our awsome Tab 2 developer [MENTION=5153662]Android-Andi[/MENTION] has paid my attention on your development project. Great, man!

I really prefer this kind of real open-source development to Maclaw's god-knows-what's-in-there stuff.

Please forgive my following questions as I don't own a S3 mini but have several friends and family members who do:

1. do you attend to add dark mode here? (like in the Slim roms)

2. is there privacy settings with toggleable permissions for the apps

(So I can void using of Greenify like written just in previous post)

tetakpatalked from P5110
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
Thanks mate, currently dark mode is not in, but we can always consider it to be added. :) Omni's privacy settings is indeed in, so you can drill down in every single permission on a per-app basis.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] tetakpatak:
Great, thanks :)

The "dark Omni mode" might look beautiful, if interested check on kasper_h's Github (mighty developer for the S1/i9000) as he has added it successfully to his (modded) Omni Mackay 4.4.2 ROM for the i9000. Here is the main thread:

Using this rom for now. Only thing missing for me is. Theme choose, ability to turn of soft button light (hated them), adding percentage to battery icon.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Ahmed.ragab:
Adding percentage with battery icon u can find it in battery stats
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
True, looks nice! Grüezi auch :)
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] rovama:
I think I have the 1GHz Bug. My battery went from 100% to 20% in 4 hrs 45 min :(

I turned off Wifi and reboot. Hope that can do the trick as with CM ROM :(
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] giociampa:
A few quick settings questions if I may...

1. Is there any way to add/remove settings? (At the moment I just put the ones I don't use right at the bottom so they're not visible)

2. Is there a reason why the Battery charge tile appears in edit mode - but not in normal use? (see attached)

3. Why does selecting "Quick settings configurable" change the layout to 4x4 from 3x3? Is there a seting somewhere I've missed that controls this?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
Hey, you cannot remove tiles but you can hide them by tapping a tile in edit mode. In fact that's what you did with the battery tile. :) To recover just tap it again in edit mode. No idea on the layout change when you untick quick settings configurable, seems to be a bug.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] exwan:
Ia there any way you could include theme chooser on next release? And mybe bln control? So that i could turn off the light completely on my soft button.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] meduza:
...on my tegraowners omni I miss it too... So it is maybe an omni thing...

m.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Ahmed.ragab:
works great [MENTION=5473651]golden-guy[/MENTION]

here is my screenshoots with some modification :)
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] exwan:
Gps not working with latest release. Kinda important for me. Anyone else could confirm this?

The location tiles also doesnt change to on when taping on it although in setting it does turn on. But gps not working
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
Hi, GPS is working for me and also the location quick settings tile is updated correctly when being tapped on... Best check your location services and app permission setup.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] exwan:
How to check permision setup?

I'll try to flash back after this. And one more thing. Wifi hotspot is not working for me. My gf phone cant find my hotspot, but it work ok before this.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] davorzilic:
For me everything related to GPS working fine and very fast.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Laserman49:
GPS works for me too. Did you try GPS Status who let your reinitialise GPS ?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
Under "Settings" - "App permissions" you can check what applications are allowed to access location services. Regarding WiFi Hotspot, you are right this is not working yet in Omni, but should be sorted out soon.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] exwan:
Thx for clarifying about hotspot. I thought i was the only one. Will report back about gps.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] exwan:
Ok. After flashing back gps works fine. Even better than my previous rom i would say.

Only thing missing now is theme chooser (there's modified omni with theme chooser floating around i think.), Abilty to turn off soft button light, and hotspot.

Btw, could i delete fused location in system?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] albertusac:
What's the function of fused loct?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] trabeast:
Hello guys everything about the ROM is awesome. But theres a slight bug when you turn on data it takes multiple trials to successfully get data.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Balino:
With float view and omniswitch omni team made multitasking to a whole new level. The concept is really good!
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Laserman49:

any one know how to (make call appear as waiting call when u try to call someone and he is already on a call process ) here in Omni Rom appear as a normal call not waiting one ? :confused:

[MENTION=5473651]golden-guy[/MENTION]:

What do you think about this:

http://novafusion.pl/2014/04/27/massive-cm-bug/

Do you think this could be relevant for omni as well?

Here's the commit:

https://github.com/NovaFusion/android_device_samsung_golden/commit/23bf9f2e6824c79c4b9ff849b221329f89357215

It seems they have changed somet things for st-ericsson stuff.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
Hm, don't think so. While many completely different things have been amended in that update, lots of them had been already applied to our Omni build. Only the framebuffer stuff might need a closer look into. Still, I think we are on the safe side, since cpu performance and battery life (which are said to be most impacted) are fine in Omni.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] exwan:
Theme has been solve using hk theme manager in xposed. Although not as good as normal theme chooser. It'll do okay for now.

Only thing left is abilty to turn off soft button light. Good room! Im getting strong ril reception.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] burak185:
I can't remember well but gravity box or some xposed module had the ability to turn off button lights.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] agusaon:
I just installed this rom and.... it's great! Btw, I'm loving Omni right now. One little thing I'm going to miss from m&m roms is the almost-instant torch turning on. But everything else, just great. Keep it up golden-guy!
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] 947432168@qq.com:
How to use HKthememanager? And how about the performance?

[MENTION=5473651]golden-guy[/MENTION] Why don't you build a unique ROM not available for s3 mini? I would like for example to test out Paranoid Android...
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Fred6681:
She was unique when he built her

It is not has golden guy that it is necessary to say
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] davorzilic:
Golden Guy has built this ROM two months ago, I think that the first release was 28.02.

So it was unique rom until Novafusion made their version last week.

I never get Twitter notifications, any ideas ?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] mchughman:
You could try turning notifications off, then on again. Or clearing app data and cache. Or reinstalling twitter. If you use greenify, check twitter is not being hibernated. Or even try a different twitter client.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Rox:
I will send pull req with torch fix
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] agusaon:
Hey that's great news! Thanks for listening to me, that's one of the great things of open development. Keep it up guys!
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
New build is up!

Just about to upload a new build with the torch lag fix (Thanks [MENTION=4947931]Rox[/MENTION], btw had to remove the valueDeathRay setting)

Was pretty busy recently, but also, I have switched now to a new build env that allows for much faster builds. :)

Will update this thread (and the OP) when the build is up!

Edit: You can get it via this link.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] ertank07:
Thanks.Changelog ? only torch lag?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
On device side yes, but Omni sources have also been updated for that build. (as has been stated in the OP :))

On the Omni side there have been some minor amendments to OmniSwitch and OmniGears (circle bar) as well as new translations. Also quiet hours is now both visible and accessible in the notification area when currently active. Nothing big, but still nice.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Groot:
Backlight notification option and the rom would be better... Installed this omni build on my girlfriend's s3 mini and i was surprised of the ram management, very smooth, no lags, just missing the BLN option but i know you could sort it out! Other than that, rom is amazing, thank you! Also, network type toggle (2g/3g) in the quicsettings is missing too.

Sent from my E151
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
Thanks! Well, network toggle is available, you just have to flip the mobile (data) tile and tap it to browse through the options: 2G, 3G, AUTO, 3G PREF.

Personally, what I would like most to have sorted out atm is the WiFi hotspot. Imho that's the most valuable, still missing feature. :good:

Btw. did you have a look at this commit: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/63060/

They claim that this bluetooth-fix is for several roms because it is for android in general... What do you think about it?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Android-Andi:
Hey together! Hey [MENTION=5473651]golden-guy[/MENTION]!

I compiled OmniROM for personal use along with my other builds (needed to teest my new buildbot :) 2 x 1 TB HDD now; 200GB ccache on the 2nd HDD for now to speed up compileing process :) ).

I added some more cool features from OmniROM wich not got merged into the source at the moment.

Maybe you like some of the features - that's why i share this build here (i hope it is ok for you [MENTION=5473651]golden-guy[/MENTION] to share it here), maybe we'll see some of the features here on golden-guy's builds in future :)

Thanks Andi, On-the-go mode sounds nice! :good:

Floating window and App circle sidebar are already in, but we could do a poll for the other features to find out the most wanted ;)

Why not for the poll Golden-Guy. I think the Battery saver is a good idea too.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] meduza:
Definitely animation control :)

[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] mahdik.m:
i have a big problem with custom roms that is charging . when i was on cyan 11 or this i cant charging my phone. in official roms battery chargs very good in all situation . but in custom roms i only should charg my phone when phone is off. so this how it done.

my battery in custom roms , charges in like 27% and after that its going to draining while its connected to charger. its so annoying.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
Alright guys, we can go with all three of them and also put the quick switcher in. Like that one too :D
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] DustArma:
Not sure if I'm the only one but I get a massive slowdown when turning off Wi-Fi, it only lasts for a few seconds so it's not really troublesome but it's there.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
Thanks, sounds interesting. :good: Do we have anyone affected by this BT disconnect issue with in-car equipment, so we can give it a try? I understood this issue to be highly equipment specific, in fact my BT headset works just fine...
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
Hm, I haven't heard about that before. Also, it's just fine for me.

Did you make a clean install with formatting data partition and wiping caches? Just wondering, do you have the I8190L variant? Maybe someone can share his Omni experience with this phone here.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] varianceness:
In my previous ROM I did experience disconnections - whenever the call ended in any way other than pressing the physical end button on the headset would result in a disconnection. With your OmniROM, I've never had a single disconnection. So yeah, BT headset works fine for me as well.

Same with my above reply - previously, whenever BT is on, turning WiFi on would be really, really slow. None of these issues are present on my phone now. :) I have yet to install the newest build so I'll be checking.. :)
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] DustArma:
I8190L, yes, and it's a clean install.

MM, I just tried turning wi-fi off with bluetooth off and it didn't cause the slowdown.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Android-Andi:
QuickSwitcher will get merged soon I think.

On the other commits some changes by hand needed if you like to place all in, that's why I haven't added them in the pull script.

But only tiny conflicts ;) easy to solve.

You should give "on the go" a run - I love that feature :)

Enable the powermenu entry inside Settings -> menu , turn it on from power menu :)
