I make these from within the ROM, so I can only do Nougat as that is what I am running. These will only go forwards, not backwards.

Also - anyone who has downloaded this, is it working? Wanna know whether to put it in OP or not, can't test it myself as my ROM has OmniSwitch lol

Tested on Lineage custom ROM for S4 - works perfectly. The previous version used to force close when screen pinning. This one works fine.

Thanks for providing this for the community.
[Android Apps and Games] wrongway213:
You're quite welcome! Thanks for the report, glad it's working well and solved your issues!

OP updated with new link per this post, old link still there under it for those on 7.0 ROMs :good:

To map Omniswitch to the hardware recents button instead of needing to swipe across the screen, I'm assuming

Should the 7.1.1 version run on bpb's RR for the Droid Turbo/Maxx? I installed/flashed it (OmniSwitchNewgat.zip) and it loads but whenever I try to bring it up it simply crashes.

Anyone else got it running on bhb's Resurrection Remix 7.1.1 ROM? Something special I have to do? Would really like to run the latest version.

I am using Lineage rom version 7.1 on N7100. Successfully installed the zip file but not found an icon in the application list. How to make it work? Thanks for any help.
[Android Apps and Games] wrongway213:
Sorry, LOS isn't supported - not because I have something against them or just won't do it, I literally am not able to do support LOS because of the signing keys they use. Explained in this post and my response below: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=71630002&postcount=53

Any solution?
[Android Apps and Games] wrongway213:
Not an error, that's the installation message I put in, that's why no error code. Please see above - I already answered your question.
[Android Apps and Games] chananyu2547:
Is this works for Android 7.1.2 version?
[Android Apps and Games] wrongway213:
Depends on the ROM but if your ROM supports it, the zip is indeed compatible with 7.1.2.
[Android Apps and Games] Suresh KM:
I tried once but did not succeed. Any new version of the OmniSwitch.zip available now.

My OS - Lineage rom 7.1.2 on GT-N7100 phone.
[Android Apps and Games] uudruid74:
If you aren't seeing Omniswitch installed on what looks like a successful install, please check and see if /system/priv-app/Omniswitch exists. If so, whats the size of the ApK file inside?

If its 630+K, then ... sorry can't help ya. If you got a 360K file then the zip is bad. I downloaded it twice and bad this problem but downloaded from the same mirror each time. It looks like the version on the Texas mirror and maybe others could be bad. Erase the ZIP, download from another mirror and try again.
[Android Apps and Games] Suresh KM:
I found OmniSwitch.apk at the above specified location but the file size is 573.64kb. what to do next?
[Android Apps and Games] uudruid74:
If its failing to be recognized, check the zip. Open it with a file manager that can view the files inside (I use FX File Manager). If the apk file inside is a different size, it didn't flash right. Try flashing again. If the problem persists, download the file again and try choosing a different mirror. Then just flash normally
[Android Apps and Games] CJ-Wylde:
I've got it installed and can open it, but am using VertexOS and am not seeing how to actually use it. I'm using Nova Launcher and am a bit clueless how to get OmniSwitch to activate instead of the Vertex Recents.
[Android Apps and Games] uudruid74:
I'm using the EXACT same setup. You'll notice I asked Joshuous to add a small hack to call Omniswitch rather than Recents if it was installed and he said no.

You'll have to use the on screen grab handle to activate it, but remember that "draw over other apps" will hurt screens like the apk installer and device admin screens. OwnROM has Omni and Nova baked in, but it's lineage based and Lineage has certain quirks I don't like.

I also have a launcher than can open Omni, so if "run app" was an option for any of the buttons I'd be good. Do you use the on-screen NavBar? You could edit the NavBar to remove the Recents button and have it run the launcher I found (likely in this thread) and you'll be set. It's only capacitive buttons that are unhackable in Vertex.
[Android Apps and Games] CJ-Wylde:
Just saw your post on Vertex, I'll give that app you found a try to see if that'll help. I don't use the onscreen navbar because I enjoy having the extra space for my apps.

Edit: It keeps opening the settings for Omni, I'm not awake yet, how do I get it to open OmniSwitch instead of it's settings?

Edit Again: I'm an idiot and chose Open App instead of Open Shortcut, lol.
[Android Apps and Games] uudruid74:
Actually, that was my fault. There is another app (on this thread I think) that just sends the Intent to Omniswitch to make it open. You cam put it on your desktop and tap it to make Omniswitch open or run it from anywhere that can launch an app.

So I was using Launch App with that app. I didn't even know about the shortcut. That's even better!
[Android Apps and Games] TechTeen17:
The first post said this should be a universal rom, and it gave a database for both updated and original. I've been looking for a universal ROM for a long time now. I have an RCA Voyager Pro, because there was a deal at Walmart over Xmas last year. I've tried to root this thing, but come up empty with methods used for similar devices.

Can you help me root this thing so I can flash my recovery, install cool updated ROMs, and delete bloatware?

(I flash all the time, and love to hack... Just this tablet has me beat.)
[Android Apps and Games] uudruid74:
Dude. Google is your friend. Omniswitch is a Recent's replacement, not a ROM and there is no such thing as a "universal" ROM. You'll have to find a thread specific to your device to root it. Rooting and unlocking the bootloader to install a custom recovery is not the same thing.

If you have questions you can PM me but I can't answer anything specific to your device.
[Android Apps and Games] SD008:
Can someone please link me to a version compatible with 5.0.x that has the 'Running Apps Only' option? I'm stuck on TW 5.0.x and the only versions I've found that are fully compatible with 5.0.x are the older ones that don't have the newer features like the 'Running Apps Only' filter or the vertical mode. The versions with these features are 5.1.x+ and while they install properly, they force close when trying to kill tasks. I have the signature verification patched btw, and app is not in restricted mode. But still it FC's when killing tasks.

[Android Apps and Games] Stupifier:
If I'm running the Original 7.0 OmniSwitch version just fine........is there any point in updating to the 7.1.1+ version? Any new features or anything? Just curious since I don't see a changelog or anything.

Thanks

Also, would you be interested in making a port of SlimRecents as well??? Just another cool Recents alternative like OmniSwitch
[Android Apps and Games] uudruid74:
This isn't even a port, it's just an installer. I'm currently doing a port of Omniswitch to use less outdated APIs and I want to add an Accessibility listener to listen for Recents button to replace stock Recents on ROMs without such support. The typical button config apps have to execute Omniswitch to work, and Google imposes a 5s delay on apps other than the launcher executing apps after pressing the Home button. This makes a 5s delay on showing Omniswitch when using a button config app. Making it built in would elliviate this bug. I just don't have time right now.

What is the proper way to uninstall this mod?
[Android Apps and Games] Stupifier:
Ehh....You can just uninstall the OmniSwitch app using Titanium Backup or something similar.

But really, there is no true uninstall procedure. You can just stop using OmniSwitch as your Recents app if you don't want it anymore. Or you can dirty flash your ROM all over again.....but that isn't really a great solution

Just curious.....would this new updated version be any Better that what we already have for Nougat?

Truth be told, I haven't ran Omni Oreo or looked much at the code even - as soon as I confirmed the APK found in the new Omni Oreo builds worked flashing, I uploaded it so everyone can use it. That I'm just about positive there's new stuff in here not in the last flashable I did for N, as OmniSwitch is updated pretty regularly. If you do use the Oreo version on a Nougat ROM, please do report back and tell us how it works!
[Android Apps and Games] Stupifier:
Just reporting back. The Oreo Version does NOT work on Nougat. I'm using One Plus 5 phone.

[Android Apps and Games] joelh:
I'm running into the "Omniswitch restricted mode" issue for the first time ever, using Newgat zip on newly flashed LOS 14.1 nightly build. I've never seen this problem myself before, so I'm not sure if it's a consequence of some new update. Nothing about my setup has changed.
[Android Apps and Games] Stupifier:
The app should function just fine even in the restricted mode I believe.......you just have that annoying notification, correct? You can just block that notification and continue on your way......or you can Disable App Signature Verification. If you Disable App Signature Verification, that will solve the actual issue...blocking the notification just hides the annoying notification.

The only way I know how to Disable App Signature Verification is by using an app which is not allowed to be named on XDA....sorry, you're on your own to determine what that app is.
[Android Apps and Games] joelh:
I'm aware of that app, but the questionable nature of its "banning" on this site makes me wonder if I should bother with it.

As for function, in restricted mode, I can't clear any recent apps from the list.

That's what changed. The signing key. I usually build my own ROMs. False alarm... :o

[Android Apps and Games] uudruid74:
Or you can check the source

That's... what I meant by "I haven't... looked much at the code even" in the beginning of that post you quoted... I have not looked at Omni 8.0 source more than briefly :confused:

im on redmi 3 ido, latest lineageos 7.1.2 and chtolly r16 kernel. flashed the newgat version and no omni app appear.it gives error in twrp. flashed the oreo version and it gives error too in twrp but surprisingly, omni app appears. it went into restricted mode and i patched it so it able to work in non restricted mode. but everytime i swiped to open omni recent, omni crashed. any solution?
[Android Apps and Games] wrongway213:
Maxwen has explained this in this thread before - LOS uses different signing keys. Unfortunately, I do believe that has caused LOS users to be unable to use this mod - no workaround I know of.

It didn't install. Erase the ZIP file you tried to flash and download again from a different mirror

---------- Post added at 04:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:15 AM ----------

Don't see why it would cause a bootloop. It just adds a new apk to system partition. You can erase it from recovery if there is an issue

Oreo 8.1 Support?

While working perfectly on my Oreo 8.0 custom ROM with the lastest based on Oreo 8.1.0 DP1 although this installs and launches the recent apps section remains blank. It seems something has changed regarding recents. The ROM is JDC Team 8.1.0 DP for the Galaxy S4.
[Android Apps and Games] wrongway213:
Nothing can be done about this, Omni source is not 8.1, but 8.0 Oreo. As this is simply a flashable feature from OmniROM, the version will correspond to their project's version.
[Android Apps and Games] ingcarranza88:
I installed the app, but have the same issue, running in restricted mode, I read about disabling app verification signature, and I install the lucky app, an tap on the xposed modules and activate that option, to disable the app verification signature, but nothing happens.

And I appreciate the help as always Max.
[Android Apps and Games] moon2eth:
Any updates?
[Android Apps and Games] wrongway213:
Honestly, just trying to get a copy of the latest OmniSwitch that will flash. For some reason the last few OmniSwitch.apks I've had extracted from OmniROM zips only come out at like 350kb, but the file is typically 550 - 600kb. I dunno if it's something with compression or maybe odex, but I'm in need of an updated 8.1 APK that is 550 - 600kb in size instead of 350. The smaller ones don't work for flashable while the ones 550 - 600kb in size flash perfectly. As soon as I am able to get an updated 8.1 APK that's the right size, for lack of better phrasing, I'll update and post 8.1 OmniSwitch. Trust me.. I'd love to have it for my own use as well.
[Android Apps and Games] maxwen:
And why you don't ask me? ?

BTW you might start with adding a few changes compared to latest. There have been some changes required in shared code that will cause problems if you try to run a general O rom
[Android Apps and Games] wrongway213:
I suppose i should have just asked you.. normally I try to handle things until we get into the "technical questions that require actually understanding more about the feature than that it's awesome" territory. Since you're here, though - any idea what the discrepancy in APK sizes is? The only thing I can think is that some builds were odexed and others deodexed.. but I could be very wrong.

As for taking changes slow, I appreciate the heads up. I've been watching OmniSwitch on GitHub as per usual. It's definitely harder to tell what's universally going to run on general Oreo ROMs than it ever was on LP, M or Nougat because.. one last thing I don't have an answer to. Unless they've forked from elsewhere, I don't see a single ROM that's added OmniSwitch to an Oreo project yet. I usually have an easy time both getting apks and also making things ROM-universal, but you guys are for once the only ones with the awesomeness baked in. I'm admittedly quite curious if there's a reason why. No way everyone abandoned my favorite feature all at once ?
[Android Apps and Games] maxwen:
So you dont build yourself?
[Android Apps and Games] wrongway213:
I do. I'm on a new (to me) device though, moved from Nexus 6 to OP5. I'm still pretty green in CAF territory to say the least, mostly just been syncing, building, picking things here and there. I've not gotten OmniSwitch merged into anything without issues on Oreo though - been just using this flashable and button mapping features.

I have tried to add it to a couple different ROMs for personal builds and such, but haven't been successful. I used to add OmniSwitch to Nougat builds on Nexus 6 and I don't remember having issues with it. I'm not sure if OmniSwitch/source itself has just gotten more complicated, if I'm just that much less proficient building for a non-Nexus, or if I was always more reliant on other projects having already grabbed OmniSwitch up than I ever realized. Could be all three.

TL;DR I do build, currently haven't gotten OmniSwitch to build with any of my stuff, used to add it on Nougat though.
[Android Apps and Games] Stupifier:
I'm on OP5 also. Love the phone. Good luck getting a proper 8.1 OmniSwitch port going. I'm definitely following along (can't help though since I'm noob)
[Android Apps and Games] maxwen:
There is only one thing you want to change - cause it requires a patch in base - is

https://github.com/omnirom/android_...mnirom/omniswitch/RecentTasksLoader.java#L467

Never call getThumbnailOld in that case

Other then that it builds just fine on 8.1

Any update on the omniswitch 8.1 flashable zip?
[Android Apps and Games] wrongway213:
I can't currently make one until I am able to find an apk for 8.1 OmniSwitch that's able to be flashed. If anyone has one, feel free to post in thread or PM and I'll make it ASAP.
[Android Apps and Games] Micalus:
Can't you use the OmniSwitch apk from the latest build to make a flashable zip? The only problem I got with replacing your apk in the zip with the one from the rom itself, were it failed to gain system permission and i couldn't use it as recents. Thumbnails and all other stuff except system permission were working.
[Android Apps and Games] wrongway213:
I normally could, but something is going wrong with extracting the apk for me and I currently don't have any tools to fix it. The apks I'm extracting are only 350 or so kb in size, and for them to be flashable I need them to come out between 500 and 600 kb size for the apk. This is why I need someone to send me an apk - I've not been able to extract one that's the right size to flash.
[Android Apps and Games] Micalus:
sent you a pm with a link for my extractions. like i mentioned they are working, it only needs a permission fix for 8.1 after putting the apk in your flashable zip.

i hope it helps
