Please only flash this ROM if you know what you're doing!!
I take no responsibility for bricked devices, marriage breakdowns,
worldwide recessions or acts of God.

Introduction

Hi

I was in two minds whether or not to release this!! It's nothing new, just plain AOSP. It does try and address a few small issues that affect other AOSP based ROMS. For example, the speaker whistle and issues with the Google Camera force closing.

The ROM doesn't have any features that are not included in AOSP except for the addition of Gapps and the Superuser app.
It's a great base if you like using the xposed modules to add you own features, or if you like things light, fast, plain and simple.

I think we all know what AOSP looks like!!!

I've been using this for some time now and I love it: fast, simple and it perfectly integrates with gravity box and all its customizations!
Plus, it is REALLY the first AOSP rom 100% speaker-whistle free for me! wonderful! :good:
(new google camera also working perfectly )

many thanks to you and of course to @tilal6991 also who made this possible with his great work for omni!

no bluescreens, it uses new omni kernel/base.. screen added in my previous post (btw just AOSP + gravity box + xposed gel settings for google launcher customizations )

only small bug I encountered so far: the 3G data connectivity symbol disappears sometimes, but I don't care too much (the connection is working anyway even if no symbol is displayed )

Thanks for the bug report, I'll take it up with my test team.. Hold on a minute that's you!!!

How did you manage to fix the speaker whistle issue and the Google camera FCS? I'll include the fix in Omni as well when I get the chance.

Reveal my secret code, are you mad!!!

Well, as you asked so nicely.
The Speaker Whistle was a simple fix. I modified the /system/etc/snd_soc_msm/snd_soc_msm_2x file. I changed it to force the bottom mic to be disabled during calls.
The Camera settings FC is due to the /system/etc/media_profiles.xml file. The Google Camera expects 6 entries in the MediaSettings array. Omni has 8 entries which causes the FC.

If I knew how I would have submitted these changes but my knowledge of Github is very limited I'm afraid..

Hope this helps?

Any ideas on battery life? Main reason for me not to switch to 4.4, is the battery life. OmniRom is great, except for the 3G drain, and other drain....

 

[FcukBloat]

deleted didn't see change log sorry!

battery life

annyone ??

 

[r-l]

Gonna give it a try... Downloading ......

 

[WHAAAZAAAP]

which kernel is the best for this rom?

 

[tilal6991]

Please do note that no other kernel (apart from Omni's because its probably close to identical) will work with this ROM. Unlike stock, AOSP based ROMs heavily modify the kernel so can not be swapped and changed.

i would say comparable to omni two roms are very similar

which kernel is the best for this rom?

as tilal said, use the provided kernel which is very good, no need to flash a different one!
