The ROM is still in pre-nightly and by flashing it you are helping the pre-nightly Testing process ;)

It may still have some bugs, spontaneously reboot, drain the battery faster or heat up a bit. The aim is to make it better and fix them.

If you find a bug and want to report it here please post a logcat (after it occurred) with a description of what you were doing at the time and the rough timing in the logcat to look at (these things get huge!).

You can also post a dmesg which is the kernel boot logs and can indicate issues with data corruption or hardware.

If you get a reboot then please post a last_kmsg from the /proc folder.

Thank you!!

There is no Q&A section for this rom as it is still in dev so you are ok to post your questions here!

when i set out to buy my tablet i looked closely at the tf300 explicitly because of the fact that it was supported by omni rom.
This is awesome.

What are the differences and/or advantages of this over the Zombi-Pop 5.1 B1? Will there be more updates, more often? So far, I love the ROM and the fact that it is so snappy!
Both are based off the same source.

Zombi will have extra tweaks applied as well as different kernels to try and will allow ROM2SD, DATA2SD, etc as well as the usual options in the installer.

If you like flashing the latest source build then go for omni - which may or may not be more stable depending upon what was done to it once it becomes a nightly but it should act as a more stable base ;)

New link for gapps, check OP

I have not fully tested them but all should be good .... :good:

Thx Josh
Am I missing something? Are there any other nightlies? When I click on the link, it still has 3/15/15 version. When I click on the changelog link, I get a black screen with menu at top that does not work. I'm using the latest Chrome with Windows 8.1
