You must do a full wipe in recovery if coming from another ROM base. Do not do a full wipe from the bootloader. Don't forget to do a Nandroid Backup first and give the ROM 10 mins to stabilise!









Features and Tweaks
  • This ROM is based from OMNI AOSP sources
  • Based off omni-4.4.4-20140829-zombi_flo-KANG source by lj50036/hardslog
  • Full Aroma Installer for main rom
  • DPI Size: 320 (Stock fonts), 280 (Medium fonts) & 240 (Small fonts)
  • Launchers: Omni, Google Experience Launcher, Apex , Nova
  • Boot Animations: ZOMBi-X, Android-L, Nexus Phase Beam
  • Gapps (updated by me to Google latest apks and libs)
  • Misc Apps: ESFile Explorer, Adobe Flash, AdAway, Titanium Backup, Keyboard Manager
  • Tweaks: File system and performance optimised, Init.d support!, Zip Align, Force GPU Rendering
  • Continued Best Support of any ROM!


  • Warning - experimental tweaks
  • Option to enable / disable data journaling on /data during install - CAN CAN CAUSE DATA LOSS IF SUDDEN SHUTDOWN OR CRASH
  • Option to enable / disable fsync during install - CAN CAN CAUSE DATA LOSS IF SUDDEN SHUTDOWN OR CRASH[/COLOR]

    [*]Tip 1: Go to Settings - About Tablet, Click build number 7 times
    Now you will see Developer Settings & Performance menus
    [*]Tip 2: In Dev Settings, enable advanced reboot & change window animation,
    transition animation & animator scales down to 0.2x for extra snappiness
    [*]Tip 3: FLOATING WINDOWS: Settings - Interface - more... - Omni Switch :)

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

All Kernels included in this ROM package are unofficial, as they are complied from source, thay may not match the source that they were forked from. I will be linking the kernel source code as per the GNU GPL License.

Sounds like to me /system was mounted when you started the install ....

Try this boot into recovery do a wipe then reboot back into recovery and flash the rom zip ...

If asked tell recovery no, do not install SU...

Thx Josh

Normal TWRP 2.8.0.1, as I didn't find this "Omni Version of TWRP".
So you did get it installed and all is good now, yes ?

If this happens to anyone else along the way, can someone plz save me a recovery.log ....

After installing and getting the symlinks failed error run this command from PC ...

Code:
adb pull /tmp/recovery.log
Thx Josh
