Q&A

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why don't I have root access after installing OmniROM?
A: OmniROM does not have an official, prebuilt root method yet, so you'll just need to flash SuperSU in recovery and you'll have 100% working root access. SuperSU can be found here: SuperSU

Q: Where is <insert feature here>, like CM/AOKP/PA/etc have??
A: Omni is still very early in development, but moving at an incredibly fast rate. New feature, bug fixes, and device support are added just about daily. Check it out here: OmniROM Gerrit Review for the latest and greatest

Q: How do I start/stop screen recording?
A: Volume UP + Power will start screen recording. Simply drag the notification bar down and click the button to stop.

Q: HALP NFC doesn't work!!
A: We know.

First post references sprint gs4, might wanna fix that to avoid confusion. Thanks for posting this.

edit: flashed ok, no probs so far, except that you'll need to convert adaway to a system apk if you use that. That's a 4.4 issue, not specific to this rom.

Also, some things to look forward to in the near future:
  • Omni File Explorer - OmniROMs native root file manager
  • native root support (you will no longer need to flash SuperSU in recovery)
  • OpenDelta - Omni's OTA Updater
  • NFC fix *properly*
  • Multi-Window
  • a big surprise in the next few hours

I've been looking forward to this ROM being available. But I see no mention of the feature that most interests me: split window (multi window).

Is it built in?/ working?

Thanks.

i didn't include multi-window in my builds to this point because I don't want to provide anything less than as close to perfection as we can get. multi-window is not ready for full implementation yet, but it will be merged as soon as it is. xplodwild and others are putting a LOT of time into it, so it'll be flawless when it gets merged.

but as of now, official nightlies are started. I will no longer be posting my manual builds here, but i will still be actively maintaining this thread.

    STOP POSTING ABOUT HOTWORD DETECTION. AFTER THE 11TH POST IN EACH OF THE 4 THREADS I MAINTAIN, I GOT IT. HOTWORD DETECTION IS BROKEN.


    I'll look into it

    all jf variants are now present at: https://changelog.omnirom.org






    Is there a way to control what tiles you see in the settings pull down menu? I looked around but couldn't find where that's at, if that's a feature.

    very soon. codeworkx is working on it, so you know it'll be good :good:
