Hey Guys,
With OmniRom in the news recently, just thought i'd try and give them some credit for their work. Remind some of you that might have forgotten about it... since there isn't an official thread for our device, but they are nice enough to provide nightlies for the M7
(Pons had one when he was making the homebuilds though, and it was greatly appreciated http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2574641 ) ,
It's been my go to for quite a while. and it's always my go to when another rom gets buggy.
Stable, great battery life, some awesome features.
Plus it's open, they share everything.
I flash every update of just about every ROM available. But i always have an Omni nandroid backup saved.
List of the innovative features:
New - Google hotwords customization from the home screen (launcher3 needed, haven't tested it yet myself)
OmniSwitch
Open Delta - Download / flash only new updates for nightlies. No need for a 200+mb file everyday.
Flash after update - part of Open Delta - flashes whatever zips you want after update.. keep SU, xposed, etcetera
Sound Packs - change all sounds on your device with one file (usually a theme..IE Zelda Sounds)
Also includes a bunch of other options i'm sure you've come to expect - Contextual Headers and Header Shortcuts, DSP manager, active display, Custom button actions... ect.
There aren't as many options as say, AICP, LiquidSmooth or PAC (all awesome, amazing roms in their own way)
It's vanilla android, but stable and reliable (not saying the others aren't by any means!)
Just my personal opinion and would like to know if others feel the same.
Nightly Changelog. https://changelog.omnirom.org/#/m7vzw/next
