[ROM] [OFFICIAL] [A510/A700] OmniROM [4.4.4]

[Ziyan]

​

Downloads

ROM (A510 can be found in the left side menu)
PA GAPPS

Installation

I recommend to use the latest TWRP build.
On the first install, a factory reset is recommended.
1. Do a backup
2. Install ROM
3. Optionally, install GAPPS
4. Reboot

If you're updating, you can just install the newer ROM zip then reboot, as it won't delete the GAPPS. You can also use the built-in updater.

Bugs

There should be only one bug: wallpapers wider than 2048px can't be set. Sadly, the default Google wallpapers may be bigger than that, so setting those may just result in a black wallpaper.

Got any other bug? Report in this thread - I'm subscribed, so I'll get e-mail notification about the posts... I am your device maintainer

Omnirom comes without root, so it's normal.

It uses my updated nvidia-3.1 kernel, so yeah, basically it includes my R2 build.

I found the ROM by coincidence yesterday. I installed it immediately and so far I think it is much better the the CM11 nightlies. I miss the theming part a bit, but performance seems to be much better.

EDIT:
Is there any changelog for the nightlies? The Software Update function in settings shows the version of omnirom is the latest, but there are newer nightly images.

for me it has been running much, much much much slower than cm11 with Z kernel

not just slower, but instead of getting laggy will actually freeze up and queue my input like Windows 98, or a FIFO scheduler

Have you checked the governor settings?Maybe they differ from your previous CM!1 installation...

This should work, but apparently it doesn't... http://omni.cmxlog.com/4.4/a700/ no idea why. Maybe they forgot to enable the OTA updater for our devices yet, I'll ask around...

Software Update for A510 also doesn't work.

And I found another issue.
Sometimes the Quick settings panel shows thee big buttons in a row.
Sometimes there are four smaller buttons in a row.

The button for screen timeout is only in quicksettings, when I have four buttons in a row.

performance didn't help much either but I'm obviously not going to leave it on that lol

Today i installed and configured omni-4.4.4-20141002-a510-NIGHTLY. I used PA GApps nano and UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02. Works fine until now.
