OmniROM 4.4 for GT-I9300

[laehtis]

Thanks for the build, awesome work.
Can someone confirm if mobile data is working during phone call?

And maybe, just maybe there could be camera work around by installing CM10.2 camera. Hmm, will try...

Its already based on update12? I dont know if this update has anything more useful other then the mali blobs.

It's really a great alpha build. Everything are well running and smooth except for the 2 known issues.
I think the thread requirements section have to be updated to state CWM Touch 6.0.4.4 is needed instead of 6.0.3.2.
I tried and it couldn't flash with CWM 6.0.3.2 sucessfully.

I don't see the external SD card mentioned, is that working then now?

Read below and see this commit: https://github.com/omnirom/android_...mmit/e1287de76020db1094fddbf7411419c4ff68fb1f

ext SD does work... it's just that it gets mounted in another place

common file explorers won't work, you just have to navigate to the right folder

just had an idea.. can you guys over Omni make an app like this app on play store..

link : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cyandelta&hl=en

its for CM's.. i've used it and its great..
but would be great and helpful if Omni got it too.. maybe you guys could collaborate with the app's dev somehow..
well, check it out.

with the app, we flashers dont need to download the whole rom each time when every nightlies came out..
just an idea though.. no forces hiding behind it.. thanks for the rom!

afaik, an updater for omni is planned.
Besides, questions like this belong to the feature request thread, where not just the maintainer of one device (even if it's the main developer in this case) can read it

I had this problem. You need to install the SuperSu 1.65 zip file - there's a link a couple of pages back.

It make not work first time - mine didn't - if so then dirty reflash the rom and reflash SuperSU.

I now have root for everything including TiBackup, Viper4Android, LMT, FX root and many others.

 

[juniorogs]

Nice Job! :laugh: I'll test it later

 

[kaza]

Probably kinda off topic, but since we have been talking about how to root, I'll just report that super su has been updated, the zip for those who need:

Flashed temasek's cm11 kernel, Omni doesn't boot. Quick dirty flash to get my device to boot again, Wi-Fi dies. Lol what a ride :laugh:

New sources are out

Mobile Phone GT-I9300_SEA I9300XXUGMJA GT-I9300_SEA_JB_Opensource_Update1.zip

It seems that these are more polished that update12

About XXUGMJA kernel update by samsung :
- It seems I was right about disabling BUSFREQ_INTERLOCK_CPUFREQ as they also disabled it now
- Zram is replaced by Zswap using frontswap and zsmalloc_new
- There are some gpu changes about utilization timeout (among other things)
- Slightly changed memory management
- Some few changes in sync

Pretty smooth for an alpha built. Sometimes Facebook closes but its the alpha app...
The only issue i noticed is that the phone freezes if i open two apps at the same time.
