F.A.Q (Frequently Asked Questions)

What is the difference between these builds and the official builds?

These are unofficial builds of Omni Rom 4.4 for the Xperia Z/Yuga/C6603
ROM is built using the same source code (github) like the official one but with these following additions:

• Compiled using latest linaro arm-eabi 4.7.4 (kernel code) & sabermod arm-linux-androideabi 4.8.3 (rom code) toolchain compilers
• Cross-compiled using those custom toolchains results in a more smoother, faster, and battery friendly ROM

What is Toolchain?

In software, a toolchain is the set of programming tools that are used to create a product (typically another computer program or system of programs). The tools may be used in a chain, so that the output of each tool becomes the input for the next, but the term is used widely to refer to any set of linked development tools.
A simple software development toolchain consists of a compiler and linker to transform the source code into an executable program, libraries to provide interfaces to the operating system, and a debugger. A complex product such as a video game needs tools for preparing sound effects, music, textures, 3-dimensional models, and animations, and further tools for combining these resources into the finished product.

What is SaberMod?

The term "SaberMod" is coming from:

SaberMod is a AOSP based ROM with some extra features added in and mostly from CyanogenMod. SaberMod started out pure AOSP when android 4.2.1 launched. Originally it was pure AOSP with a few extra features I ported over from CyanogeMod and linaro optimizations. Then I rebased everything off of rasbeanjelly because I liked many features found in rasbean. Since then I've modified a lot of the code so not much of it is rasbeanjelly based anymore. But you will still find some commonly used features found in rasbeanjelly. SaberMod is not a rasbeanjelly or CM clone, or KANG. Custom kernels are included for certain devices when available. These are personal builds we make for ourselves and originally became very popular in the nexus 7 forums. Features are very rarely added, and are built to SaberMod's team members liking. Currently there are two members of SaberMod working on this project. Myself and @jarjar124 . Please understand our time is limited and we are only two people who have lives, and do not have 25-50 members like CyanogenMod to add things. And our goal is not to add a bunch of features that bloat the system of the ROM.

What is Linaro?

Linaro is the place where engineers from the world's leading technology companies define the future of Linux on ARM. The company is a not-for-profit engineering organization with over 120 engineers working on consolidating and optimizing open source software for the ARM architecture, including the GCC toolchain, the Linux kernel, ARM power management, graphics and multimedia interfaces.

About GCC main compiler cflags

-O1
Optimize. Optimizing compilation takes somewhat more time, and a lot more memory for a large function. With -O, the compiler tries to reduce code size and execution time, without performing any optimizations that take a great deal of compilation time.

-O2
Optimize even more. GCC performs nearly all supported optimizations that do not involve a space-speed tradeoff. As compared to -O, this option increases both compilation time and the performance of the generated code. -O2 turns on all optimization flags specified by -O.

-O3
Optimize yet more. -O3 turns on all optimizations specified by -O2 and also turns on the -finline-functions, -funswitch-loops, -fpredictive-commoning, -fgcse-after-reload, -ftree-loop-vectorize, -ftree-slp-vectorize, -fvect-cost-model, -ftree-partial-pre and -fipa-cp-clone options.

-Os
Optimize for size. -Os enables all -O2 optimizations that do not typically increase code size. It also performs further optimizations designed to reduce code size.

More pleasure are coming to our XZ day after day. :fingers-crossed:

Thank u infected for your hard work, we really need awesome devs like u.

Keep it UP mate :good::good::good:

 

[Carphedon]

This is exactly what i was looking for. Flashing now! Keep up the good work (and the nightlies )

 

[Carphedon]

Update: Rom running perfectly! Default omnirom does not have many bugs and is already smooth, the infected build has just as little bugs but is even smoother and has lower battery usage. Also, white UI is a nice addition. Thanks again!

 

[acutraaq]

Can you please build the new infected
's meow kernel???

 

[elias234]

downloading right away , i love your work @infected_ ,
my internet is slow , i need to wait so much to finish my download , does it have multi window ?

 

[Carphedon]

Can you please build the new infected
's meow kernel???

Meow kernel is buggy and not fully compatible with omnirom

 

[acutraaq]

Meow kernel is buggy and not fully compatible with omnirom

I want to use it with other rom....Please........:angel:

It seems that the nightly builds are not so nightly, any chance on a new build with latest changes?

if you can do better and faster, please do so... should i remind you that i am doing this for free, on the free time i have left between two jobs, and you are asking for ETA's? You can't demand such thing, you are not in the position for it, sorry. so you should think twice before posting crap text like that...

Dear sir, why are you offended like that. Ofcourse i am not demanding, i was just curious because i like using this rom which i mentioned 2 posts earlier when i praised your rom. I had no intention what so ever to "post crap like this". Have a nice day...

Yes all C6603 ROMs can be used on C6602 and vice versa.
