Hi, here is a mod that puts Multi Window feature in OmniRom nightlies

I'm not the original creator thanks to @daniel_hk


Multi-window

This is a big work in progress, which currently has some bugs,
but begins to look okay.
You can already multitask a little bit, by using the
app switcher and long-pressing an icon, then select "Add to
Split View".
Last window touched gets the key focus.
Code is very ugly, I know. Don't merge it, don't use it
for now. Unless you want to make your code ugly.
Enjoy :)



Installation instructions :


Installing OmniROM for the first time :

1. Reboot Recovery
2. Flash OmniROM and G.Apps
4. BOOT ! (Or you may fall into a boot loop)
5. Reboot on Recovery
6. Wipe Cache/Dalvik Cache
7. Flash Multi Window Zip and Reboot


If Omnirom is already installed :

1. BACKUP YOUR ROM ! (MultiWindow is unstable)
2. Wipe Cache/Dalvik Cache
3. Flash Zip and Reboot



Download :


Mega
Goo.im



Video :

Youtube



Issues :


- Do not open a MultiWindow with Google Chrome, it's very buggy
If you have already done, delete Google Chrome data (Only if MultiWindow starts to bugger)

- if an application opens in MultiWindow alone, press back and reopen


Mod tested and works on OmniROM Nightlies 21/12/2013 and 22/12/2013




Thanks OmniROM Team and daniel_hk

Would this work with ART?

I do not know, I do not have the ART option in my OmniROM developper setting

But this mod requires a Deodex Rom (For modifies SystemUI and Framework-res.apk)

ART requires a Odexed Rom no ?


If you want to try, flash this mod before Odexing your rom

ohhhhhhhhh this changed my LTE sign to 4G sick!!!!

Yes this mod changes the SystemUI and Framework-res.apk

Your mod has been done with ZipThemer no ?


If this is the case reflash your mod, it should work :)

Does not work on omni 12/27/13 nightly. Stuck at boot logo. Which is probably known and expected, but I figured I post my attempt anyways ;)

Edit: More info:

Using Franco Kernel. I really want to try this multiwindow stuff, so I'll try a clean omni install of 12/27 and give that a try.

Got stuck at boot using multirom and 12/22. I guess I'll wait for a more stable release for now.

You backup your device? You tried with what Nightlies? Which?

I tested several times and it works perfectly, the author of the mod has been tested several times and works perfectly, users of earlier nightlies tested and works perfectly

The mod date 2 weeks ago, Omnirom constantly changes (I did not put the date of the mod for nothing)

I have not had time to test, or had time to change the thread status in recent days

Check your own mistakes before lecturing me.

Just tried it again with the 12/22 nightly.
Everything is now working. Not sure what I was doing wrong before, but here are my steps.

Using multirom...

Installed omni 12/22 nightly from zip. Reboot into 12/22 omni.

After it came up cleanly, reboot to recovery and flashed gapps and multiwindow patch via multirom menus.

Reboot and everything came up.


Thanks!
