Code:
#include <std_disclaimer.h>
/*
 * Your warranty is now void.
 *
 * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
 * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
 * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
 * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
 * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you. Hard. A lot.

The new build seems just fine. I was able to install right on top of the unofficial build I had been using without any problems. All seems to be working.

Yeh I am pretty sure I know what the problem is will fix shortly. Thanks for the heads up

Edit: new deb build up should fix boot problem

So what's the big difference between these and your unofficial builds?
Apart from Open Delta support in the official ones and the linaro toolchain used for the unofficial one, that is...

Unofficial is rooted, with cherry picks multi-window, lock screen notifications, dalvik tweaks, etc and bulletproof kernel to add sweep and tap wake functions

Official builds are stable and pure omni with no cherry picks or additional tweaks.

I am debating shutting down the other threads now that this is up.

Oh Wow !!!!

I have been waiting to try Omni for a while but the official rather than the un-official.

So glad I found this thread. Its one of the best Roms I have run on my N7. Only beaten by Clean rom but as the dev has moved on and not developing for the N7 now, this Omni is my daily. Thanks a lot dev :highfive::highfive::highfive:

    Would have been useful to mention this to the rest of the team. I saw you PM me on IRC Monday but you have not been on since then for the remainder of the week.

    Are you not on the maintainers mailing list? I haven't seen a response to the email I sent Wednesday evening regarding flo.

    Any build from 7/8 to 7/14 or so should be OK. General issue here is that the proper way to update a device with upstream merges is for the maintainer to do an upstream merge and push the merge as individual commits using Gerrit review bypass. Problem was, Andre didn't have the proper access to do this, and a Gerrit bug caused the process to still fail when pulser THOUGHT he'd given Andre access. As a result, on 7/8, xplodwild reverted the device tree changes until Andre's Gerrit access could be fixed, since the device tree changes break without a kernel update.

    Around 7/14, Andre's gerrit access was fixed (the issues were caused by an annoying Gerrit bug). Andre pushed the kernel update but didn't re-push the matching device tree changes, resulting in a broken configuration again. Then I guess he left on business and wasn't heard from for two weeks. On Monday he PMed me asking me why xplodwild had reverted the changes, and then disappeared from IRC for the remainder of the week.

    I don't mind if people leave for extended periods of time, but in such events, I want to know if a maintainer is going to be gone so we can take care of any issues that arise rather than assuming they're going to fix it. (I've held off on fixing flo myself because I wanted to make sure Andre's gerrit access was sorted, but if he doesn't fix it by tomorrow I can't wait any more...)
    Sorry all for the delay but it has been now fixed and merged. The next nightly for 8/2 will have working WiFi. Again I apologize for the length of time it took to get fixed, I will ensure it won't happen again or give heads up to all.
