==============================
Be Advised:
- Root access is not included by default as of yet. Flash SuperSU for root (also see "SURVIVAL" note).
- Feel free to leave bug reports on the bugtracker.
- This firmware will install TWRP as your device recovery (required to recieve OTA updates).
-GApps >PA 0 Day< mini only (see GApps note)
ART works, but Xposed breaks it.

Recovery requirement
(prior to flashing this firmware):
================
CWM 6.0.4.4+
(flash the latest cm nightly)
--OR--
TWRP 2.6.3.0+
(flash Omni's Boot.IMG via MobileOdin)
​

NOTES:

GApps: The size of full (system installed) Gapps packages prevent the use or ART runtime. Mini Gapps + google play installation of desired addons is a more efficient approach considering the resources available.

SURVIVAL: Go to super SU settings and install backup script. Root will survive updates. As for gapps both banks and PA have backup scripts. You don't need to re-flash them.
in system/addon.d, you should have a 99-supersu.sh, and 70-gapps.sh backup scripts, which survive the Rom update.
The script backs up beforehand and will restore after the flash.
From the backup script..
#!/sbin/sh
#
# /system/addon.d/99-supersu.sh (root:root 755)
# During an upgrade, this script backs up SuperSU-related files,
# /system is formatted and reinstalled, then the files are restored.

How to install CWM from TWRP?

Boot into TWRP recovery
choose Install
Go to emmc to acces the internal sdcard and go to where you have the kernel with cwm( Siya, AJK, STI)
Flash the Kernel, when finished DON'T TOUCH REBOOT SYSTEM, Just go back to previous screen and choose the reboot to recovery option.

You will boot into CWM now and will be able to wipe everything without issues...

MobileOdin Install:

With your phone on fully booted into (whatever ROM)
1) Gather all necessary flash files onto internal sdcard before performing these steps.
---a) Boot.IMG (extracted from omni-4.4.x-latesti9100-nightly.zip)
---b) MrCook's ROM wipe.zip
---c) Omni-nightly.zip
---d) PA GApps (optional)
---e) SuperSU (optional)

2)Mobile-odin flash Omni's boot.img
>>the phone will try to reboot, but will likely fail. Three-finger salute (with the USB cable UNPLUGGED), until you are in TWRP recovery<<

3) [install] > [COOK'S ROM WIPE.zip] > [add more zips] > [omni-4.4.x-latesti9100-nightly.zip] > [add more zips as desired] >>swipe to confirm flash>> [reboot system]

If you don't leave your phone to settle down how you can judge battery life?

I have tried to install core gapps (banks) and google now doesn't work on home screen

BaNkS core doesn't include GEL. You'll need to flash BaNkS standard for that experience.

Try to use something around 120MB liek pa gapps modular mini or else system partition will run out of space causing several problems.

so is Banks standard (71.5 MB) better?

It's for Nexus 5, it will remove the camera and replace it with Nexus one so i don't think it's suitable for this rom.

Works like a charm.

It does replace the camera with the photosphere camera, and works well with OmniROM on i9100 and i777.
