So the thing is, omni as a whole does support legacy devices. However developers may not have legacy devices as a high priority, so support for them will be slow.
They will be added in the future if a developer does bring them up

if any other developer brings omni to legacy device by himself will that get treated as official rom from omni developer side...

Amy developer can contribute any patch they/feel suitable to omni, including legacy patches, as long as the quality is to a good standard, it works, and it doesn't break anything else

i m asking that now omni is not supporting legacy devices if any other non-omni developer creates rom for legacy device then will that be recognised as official rom from omni..

If they are experienced enough to maintain it, then I guess yes it will be official.
However it is my opinion that many people who "bring up" a rom on a device are not experienced enough to be a maintainer for a team such as omni or cyanogenmod.

Yes legacy devices will be supported if the ROM runs well enough on them. They will definitely not be kept out of having official builds.

Support Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100

Encourage your dev to push his changes to gerrit so we can get official builds set up. It's up to him though.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47606886&postcount=79
@nims11 posted link to his github in "Developers - Merging Your Working Device" thread. Something more is needed? I'm not dev and i don't know how exactly gerrit work. Can you add i9100 to gerrit basing on it or something else is needed?
Edit:
I asked both i9100 developers of OmniRom - they can't do anything as long as admin doesn't create directory for i9100 in OmniRom github. Maybe someone with permission to do this will read this post

It took a while to get i9100 forked due to the fact that it was a holiday for many of us.
It's forked and the 4.4 bringup patches are on gerrit for review. Rather than forking one of the trees out there, we started from the same origin point as n7000/i777 as I want the commit history for those devices to be similar.
Right now, the holdup for i9100 is that no one who actually owns the device and knows how to apply/review Gerrit patches has reviewed and tested them yet.

[Q] Building OmniRom from resources for i9100

OK, so I am not a dev.
And iam completely newbie
I saw some people saying that if you have aosp on your device it's much easier to port omnirom for your device
So can I use CyanogenMod 10.2 that is available for the i9100
To build omni
And is there any detailed instruction on how to build it !!

I9100 needs some work because of its unified kernel, building it right now is pretty much useless if you don't know where to put your hands to solve some issues; I want to try it too but this project is in a early stage so I'll wait

Yup. There are two MAJOR blockers right now:
1) We haven't merged and tested the implementation of BOARD_SUPPRESS_EMMC_WIPE yet. So if someone were to build for a Superbrick-vulnerable device, they would have a a build that risks triggering Superbrick. While I normally don't like having moderators take down builds for something, if I see builds for Superbrick-vulnerable devices show up, I'm going to work with the mods to have them taken down until EMMC wipe suppression can be verified.
2) The build system needs some changes to permit TWRP to be built on userdebug builds. Right now, the only way you'll have a chance of working recovery is with an eng build.

Can we not use cm10.2 smdk4412 kernel, @Entropy512? EMMC_WIPE is disabled there?
Also, would there be any problems if one were to remove Omni bootable project and replace it with cm10.2's?

No, because it could still cause damage if flashing from an old "unsafe" kernel (see the first few CM10 builds as an example...). These are far rarer now than they used to be, but there are, believe it or not, occasionally people who are flashing stuff starting from TW ICS.
And CWM has tentacles throughout the CM source tree to get it to build. It requires too many hacks in too many places. TWRP is more standalone, the limitation being that on devices with standalone recovery, Dees_Troy always built using the "eng" variant instead of "userdebug".
There's a patch that allows for TWRP to build properly on userdebug using "make recoveryimage" but it fails to allow building of TWRP into unified-recovery devices like Sony pollux_windy/yuga. (Samsung requires even more hacks...)
Even the Sonys which are "sort of" working aren't ready for builds yet - for them to work they're dependent on the FOTAKernel trick Dees_Troy developed to allow for alternate recoveries to be put on a device.
Does the above apply also to the i9100g? It has an OMAP4 processor instead of Exynos so it should be easier to build for.

I'm fairly certain the G has unified kernel/recovery just like most of the rest of the galaxys2 family (exception being the Qualcomm-based ones).
So it might build, but recovery will not function at all until the build system is fixed to properly support TWRP on devices with unified kernel/recovery.
It has nothing to do with Qualcomm vs. OMAP vs. Exynos, except that for whatever reason, Samsung actually allowed the recovery partition to serve its normal purpose on the Skyrocket and Hercules. Actually, the Straight Talk variant of the SGH-I777 might work, as that oddball device actually DID use its recovery partition.

Yeah I know. Entropy and me are looking for the error, but is not beeing easy to fix. Okey, will add in a few hours and release new one. And I correct you, except the latest version, I tried all versions I released and some others I didn't release. I always do but that day I needed phone for important family things and couldn't test
Also I went to release with a prebuilt TWRP 3.0.101 kernel but XplodWilD say me that this will get Semi-Official maybe, and only compiled non-touched ROMs will be released.

i9595G rom source?

I ask because I could not find any source @ google's repo for this device, yet - i see people posting that they build i9505g roms from source.
Thanks.

No. The GPE devices are not supported in AOSP. The ROMs and kernels are built by the OEMs, with support from Google. Samsung makes the GPL sections of the kernel available, but no ROM code and no binaries/drivers. As far as factory images go, those would have to be provided by Samsung and they do not provide them. I am surprised, however, that SamMobile doesn't have anything available.

CyanogenMod

Do you guys think cyanogen will eventually add this phone to its official supported devices?
Coming from a Nexus 5 with endless rom development It'd be a shame if this phone didn't see as much. Especially since it has such potential
No I don't think that oneplus two will get official cyanogen support, as oneplus dropped cyanogen and started using there own OxygenOs. In fact, I think that even future devices from oneplus will also never get official cyanogen.
So, unfortunately we will need to stay at unofficial builds only.

yes cm13 will be officially available soon!And you are wrong ! one plus had a bad breakup with cyanogen but theirs a diiference between how people work on cynogenos and cyanogenmod !It depends on the devolepers of each community on how they work on devolepment on a particular device but one plus two devolepment is insane so cm13 is on the way and if u are still concerned look at the devs of HTC 826 they made thier device get official support and dont worry as far as i know the devolpement for this device will be booming shortly !And theirs already a thread on CM 13 !
Hope that your words come true. But still I don't think so that cm13 will be available OFFICIALLY.

lol bro if they get unofficial builds perhaps in a week ..then tell ME why wont they make it official after a month !what one plus one had is the cyanogen os and not cyanogenmod !To make a device official in cyanogenmod u have to have good devolpment for a particular device and the works for cm13 is already started for op2 !Check out cm12.1 thread garak is working on cm13 and threres another thread called cm13
As i understand, in order to get an official support from cyanogen to our device there must be unofficial CM build, witch can be sent to CM team for a review. If it passes, has most things working, then they add it to their device tree and officially supports it. In other words, anyone there can take CM vendor and framework codebase and then go and start adding the code necessary to make CM work properly on OPT device. When developer gets far enough along, he can then submit that code back to CM for inclusion into CM's github. If that code passes the checks that the CM team has, then the CM team will merge that code into its own device tree and add official support for that device.
Also there are chance of CM team taking this step by their selves .. but there is probably no hope for that. So the only hope is Grarak
This information is found in the official CM forum so i doubt it is false.

Potential Marshmallow for S3 GT-I9300 (Achieved)

Our device is still running because of XDA and the developers. And this 3 year + device is still in race to taste the Marshmallow .​
Let us use this thread for discussion related to it.​
And all of this has become possible because of the recognized developers @JustArchi @dhiru1602 @mcgi5sr2 @Moster2 @arter97, Christian Balster (OMNI team), @forkbomb444 Haxynox team, Nameless team (Sorry, in case I missed someone)​
There are 3 projects going on for getting a build of Marshmallow.(Achieved)
The Haxynox Team --- [ AOSP M is out --- Check it out ]
The Official CM --- [ The First to come --- CM 13 Thread Link ] && { It's happening, nightlies are here - Official CM-13 Download Link }
The Nameless Team --- [ It will happen ]

Official CM 13​
The development process of CM 13 has just started few days back.
Developers: Simon Shields , CM team.
Gerrit Link: I9300-M-BringUp || smdk4412
Here comes the first building project of Marshmallow CM 13 :
CM 13 Thread Link
PS: No one knows who XYZ is on XDA. I searched for him on Github and came through this account of a developer ,which has the same commits as published on Official CM Gerrit.
The link of the Github is keepcalm444 and may be it is XYZ's user name.
An XDA account matched it forkbomb444 ( The email used for commit in Official CM Gerrit Review matches it .
(I am not sure about it)
The unknown developer is none other than @forkbomb444
Official Nameless Team​
They have asserted that they will definitely release Marshmallow for our device.

Dear Brother, building a ROM is not like a game.
Things are always not pushed directly into gerrit everyday, it is a long process than we think.
And coming to another thing, we (normal users) have very less idea about development. It is better to keep calm than raising unnecessary issues. This issue can only be solved by a proper answer from the CM developer.

I didn't forget them. I respect their work.
Blisspop along with many other projects like Resurrection Remix, Euphoria OS, crDroid and many other are dependent on Archi device tree or Nameless device tree or Haxynox tree or some other (ROM source would be from respective projects).
Correct me, if I am wrong. I would definitely add them if someone from their team are working on bringing our device tree for 'M'.

Look onto github you'll see. However, I might be wrong too.

You would get the answer you want if you understand the bold/underlined/italicized part.

Selinux M bringup commit was of which developer? Wasn't it Simon himself? :/

You're forgetting Bliss team and their maintainers and developers who are also working to bring marshmallow to our phone. They've done a wonderful job on blisspop (I can tell you myself since I've been using their ROM as a daily driver for past weeks and I have no complaints about it)

Blisspop isn't exactly the most trustable ROM source I know. They've been caught kanging (stealing others work) many times and I'm sorry to say, but Blisspop isn't going anywhere until CM, Nameless or Haxynox do something.
Yes, it's getting a slight bit political if you're wondering.
I'm just tasting the flavor of the Marshmallow in my xt1069, but I prefer the i9300 because it's better than him (in my opinion, obviously). But, a little question about the future: can i9300 smell or taste Nutella? (I'm talking about a future Android N)
Talking about the ROM's, I feel very proud because we have so many people that don't let a device of this caliber die. Since I don't have money to donate, let me give my special thanks to all of you who don't let it go down. I'm very grateful.

It's a broad question.
First, let us hope if we could get a usable 'M' build first.

Too early, right? But I think we have a nice hardware to get M. Will it have a better Ram management?

That CM "Maintainer" is just using old commits from evryone else at the list and most of the time violating authorship by just squashing commits and putting his name on it

Look, while I did do that, I think you'll find that it's been fixed. I'm sorry I did that, and it won't happen again.
Now, re: using old commits: did you *really* expect me to spend hours on end doing work that's already been done? It makes a lot more sense to focus on work that hasn't been done yet, rather than trying to redo everyone's work.
Now, if you have any issues with what I'm doing, feel free to PM me
Exactly! This is what my point is. And apart from that he himself is pushing some commits of his own. Make sure you guys checks at least. Yesterday there was two new commits which are not yet merged though.
Thanks a lot Simon @forkbomb444

I'm pretty sure proper authorship is the only issue here

He did give proper authorship to developers. Check github. Anyways, just a request to all the developers please help him to get the official CM13.0 for S3 running.
