Omega vs CyanogenMod Comparison

I have been looking for an alternative to Cyanogenmod - for just ONE reason alone.

I Currently use CyanogenMod 10.2 (JellyBean 4.3) on my GT-i9505.

It works very good, i am very happy with it.

I have been watching the development of KitKat Very Closely, i have seen various problems in various areas

depending on which make & model of phone you have.

The One thing that i have become dis-heartened about however about CyanogenMod is this: NO Support at all what-so-ever for S4 Dual Video, or Dual Camera.

I have personally used this feature and i think it is a GREAT selling point of the Galaxy S4 after the highly successfull and popular Galaxy S3.

I personally remember trying it out in the shops, and thinking 'wow, this is just soooo cool man, real time video recording with BOTH Cameras at the same time!!!' - I have personally written a statement/rant about this:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4/help/dual-camera-support-gt-i9505-t2823281

The response was a very strong argument against trying to support this feature on the basis that there simply was not enough demand for it compared to all the more popular demands, things which were obviously more pertinant to most users of most makes & models of phones out there. The devs simply cannot devote the amount of time to what i and a handful of others really wanted.

The whole 'Dual Camera' / 'Dual Video' was simply not a large enough thing considering that the Galaxy S4 was one of the first phones to support real-time 'Dual Camera' / 'Dual Video', even though the S4 it'self did not actually sell very well for Samsung despite the S3's success. I did try putting the argument that because the S5 is now the official new improved main master phone by samsung, that it would be in the best interests of devs to start developing support for 'dual camera' / 'dual video' now on the basis that phone as they start to improve and set new standards for what could become a very popular thing (like 'Dual Camera' recoding) that this could start to become a standard feature of next-gen phones, or at least a fad. the argument being that if they dont start development now in the CyanogenMod OS, it could make things more difficult later, when phones start coming out, the devs might get in-undated trying to catch up on code changes, etc.

Anyways, i think you now see where i am coming from.

A person on one of the links said that he had 'Dual Camera' / 'Dual Video' on the Omega OS. - I'm immediately interested.

The reason i moved away from the Original Samsung TouchWiz OS, was to get away from the dreaded KNOX. I choose CyanogenMod.

I think CyanogenMod is a very good Open-Source alternative to Samsungs TouschWiz.....all except the NON Ability of 'Dual Camera' / 'Dual Video' Recording feature....very badly missed by me.

Could you please give me your comparison of Omega vs Cyanogenmod, Thank You.

Bluetooth Issue

Hi all,

Prior to flashing my S4 I9500 to Omega v24, my Bluetooth connection to my car worked 100%.

Now it does not.

It connects, but after a few seconds after connection, there is a loud 'thud' type noise and then it disconnects and my car's Bluetooth radio player restarts and obviously connection is lost.

My car is a VW Polo Vivo 2013.

Last night I tested this by connecting my GF's unflashed Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini to my car and it worked, no issues.

Has this issue been reported prior to me reporting it / has it been resolved?

I'm in the process of downloading the v26 torrent to do an update, mainly to see if this resolves the issue.

Thanks!

Phone Reboots without pressing power button

Hello All,

Facing a difficult situation here with my I9500 (Indian version), Omega v27.

The Phone is rebooting randomly. (I know these can be fixed with Wipe & Recovery mode) but there's a Bad catch.

The Phone reboots right when its connected with a Battery, without even pressing the Power button. (Not sure why?)

This is the reason, i cannot reach the Recovery mode too & Download mode is reachable but then Reboots again.

Can't flash it via ODIN, No Wipe, No Recovery, Nothing happens.

Its just the phone reboots while inserting the battery without pressing the power button.

I had even discharged the battery completely, kept the battery & phone separate for an Hour. Then tried again... What happened? Again the phone reboots itself without pressing the Power button.

Removing 3 Minit crashes phone on reboot

I removed the 3 Minit battery app ages ago. On the weekend I rebooted my phone, on startup it displays the error message:

process com.android.systemui has stopped unexpectedly

It does this in a continuous loop. I know for certain that removing the 3 Minit app is the cause of my problems because I:

Took a backup in recovery of my ROM

Did a full wipe (actually I installed Cyanagen Mod but on the i9500 the camera is really flaky)

Installed Omega v27

Did nothing else, not even connect it to wifi or do any updates

Removed the 3 Minit Battery app

Rebooted

Is it possible to reinstall the app using recovery like you do when installing Google Apps in Cyanogen Mod? Is there a way to edit a file so that Omega is not looking for a vital file that was removed when I removed the 3 Minit battery app?

Why is an app that simply changes the look of the battery icon so VITAL to the system to start up?

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hazza96:
I thought I would post an update about the 3minit battery problem, I was able to fix it.

I installed the ROM again, I then installed an App called "App2Zip" (or something like that) and created a ZIP file form the 3minit app.

I did a ROM restore and then I installed the ZIP file, my phone is back to the way it was.

Still this is a warning to the developers, don't allow an app that is vital to the startup to be removed. To the users, even if you don't use the 3minit battery app thing, do not remove it.
