Unofficial OmniROM by struq & Kayant 02/02/2014 - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello struq and Kayant,
congratulations on this excellent ROM.
For me it is after many attempts with CM11 a surprise how stable and fast our Defy + can run under KitKat, even though both ROMs run on the same kernel.
Now a few more translations into German and the ROM would be perfect.
Please continue developing this ROM.
regards
Defy_Duke

Great OmniRom
It is definitely a great KitKat rom: fast and stable :good:
Thank you!

Thank you for new relase of the OmniROM.
I have only two problems:
1. No TWRP Recovery boot function (i have fix it with your ramdisk-recovery file )
2. OmniSwitch not working
the rest works fine, stable and fast.
greets

For me the deep sleep works fine.

Very fluid
Well this is one of the ROMs I kept longer since was so fluid but I don't know why is not updated?
Anyway super rom.

Yes, OmniROM is a super ROM for the Defy. :laugh:
There is a newer Version out (20140228), but this has an big bug in TWRP recovery boot, so is better not install this version.
I think struq is work on next version of OmniROM. :good:

well is it better than quarx ?

It has the same Kernel from Quarx and Blechdose, but struq has only stable versions of the kernelcode in his Rom.
For me is the Omnirom much more smoother and stable as CM11.

Omni for Defy March 8th version / Google Play problem
I've installed the new Omni version this morning and it is very nice! Performance of my Defy is acceptable.
I had one problem since I had a working internet connection but couldn't access Google Play. After installing 2-27_GApps_Minimal_4.4.2_signed.zip the problem was solved.
Many thanks for this ROM! Now I can use the same environment on my Nexus 7, I9305 and my old Defy.
Klaus

Thank you struq for the new version.
TWRP works fine now, no bootloops and start in TWRP works.

Works perfect for me.

Wow, i have never threy a better ROM on my Defy+.
I hope that i now have 10 post and can answer in dev. threat.

Thank you all for your awesome work.
I installed omni-4.4.2-20140308-mb526-TEST.zip and had some issues at first:
-after a dirty flash over the version 20140202, supersu (flashed via twrp) was not working
-clean flash: same error as Post #159 in original thread:
status bar, lock screen, etc doesn't appear ie system ui doesn't start
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
-another clean flash worked fine but no usb mass storage, only mtp/ptp (I am almost certain that I had us mass storage on 20140202)
did not yet try to enable it via terminal emulator
(since I am a forum newbie, I can't post in the dev-threat)

I think me have since KitKat only MTP/PTP
Fine that the new OmniROM now works on your phone. :laugh:

Yeah youre right. Went back to build 20140202 since I had some charging issues and there is only MTP/PTP too.
Maybe it was just a dream
But will stay on this one for now, feels more stable...

Just installed the March 11th version. Google Play now works out-of-the-box.
Nice ROM, thank you!
Klaus

What are the main differences between Quarx's CM11 and OmniRom? (...an SlimKat??) :silly:.

newer version possible
Is there maybe a chance for a new version which incorporates latest Quarx's & Omni changes?
Would be great!

[Q] MultiBoot & ICS

Unfortunatelly I don't have permissions to reply in this topic, so I created this one.
I have Installed CM7.2 (from Quarx) on stable recovery and ICS to latest recovery. I use multiboot for this.
Everything worked good, but one of the newest version of ICS has newer kernel, so after I choose it phone just stucks at Moto logo...
So I have 2 questions:
1) Is it possible to get working new ICS on multiboot?
2) If no, how can I delete ICS from latest recovery and install there other firmware?
Thanks

Nope its not possible to have the newer versions including 111207 on multiboot!
to get rid of ICS in the latest boot you can just flash an other .zip over it, like miui or stuff...
hope it helped, greetz Esok
It is possible
Yes, it is possible. The only vital pre-requisite is to upgrade the main CM7 system to 2.3.4 kernel version.
But before, take care of:
1. The 2.3.4 kernel has some issue regarding camera, specially green lens (I think it doesn't work yet). Red lens work great, after a few work around with some overlay libs. (all this stuff very well described on CM7 thread).
2. Once you upgrade the kernel, you could install CM9 latest test builds.
pros:
- both systems running latest GB kernel (remember be sure to use 2.3.4)
- great to have CM7 and CM9.
cons:
- be sure to fix your camera in CM7. (of course, hope you have red lens )
- in my case: CM9 boot, but it doesn't detect the baseband (if I check "About phone" Baseband details show "Unknown"). WiFi work Ok.
I really appreciate any advice in this last comment.
Happy holidays

[DISCUSSION]Android 4.4.3 finally released

Just released for the Nexus devices, so expect some of the (still) supported AOSP roms to roll this out by end-of-month - if not sooner. Please don't use this as an excuse to spam threads asking for ETA's, as all 4.4.3 discussion can go here until those respective threads go live.
Thank you.
CM11 4.4.3 is now available for s2 i9100.

any stable 4.4.3 version released? i flashed 4.4.3 slimsaber before and the random restarts kinda turn me off. I'm back to 4.3.1 and it's rock stable

Did you do a full device reset? I usually dirty flash until 4.4.2 latest release, then fully wiped clean my device before jumping on 4.4.3.
4.4.3 Really looks great

I'm thinking about install CM11 M7 on my s2, what do you guys think about it? Bugs and something like that?
CM11 M7 works flawlessly... but:
- there is no default ringtone so if u wiped your /data you will hear silence when someone calls u
- there is no kernel with working usb-otg nor usb-hdmi around for this release, but DorimanX team is looking on to that.
- CM's gapps not working (not ready for 4.4.3 obviously), use pa_gapps (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942) - in my case only micro was small enough to fit with that new huge CM
- that kitkat /storage/sdcard0 read-only issue makes lot of apps to just crash !!
Besides above it works pretty well. Wifi stable, hsdpa stable, calls/sms fine, browser fine. Can't find anything more not WAI.
At this time I'd suggest NOT flashing DorimanX on newest CM 11 M7.
If u wiped /data partition you have to recreate some default structures (eg. DCIM or camera and gallery won't work).

MoKee OS Official 5.1.1 Nightlies

For anyone who doesn't know; MoKee Nightlies are available for Thea, if anyone wants to try. It's pretty good.
http://download.mokeedev.com/?device=thea
Their original dev (and unkwon) must create a post for more detailed information...! But thanks for the advice.
Obviously. They haven't yet! Just telling people it's there.
It's pretty good, but at the moment Bluetooth is not working, can't connect to my Android Wear, so back to CM12 but I'll keep trying =)

Were you using a nightly or release build? Bluetooth is working fine for me. I'm on the latest release build. Smooth and stable.

Yep it was nightly 2015-05-23 , later I'll try the new nightly and if that does not work, then I will try the release build. Cheers for the info =)
How good is it? Is it better than CM?
I prefer it to CM. The release builds are great. No issues for me.
I4ve been on this ROM for a day now and it works like a charm. Mokee is really great. No buigs or FC for now
EDIT : GPS works for You ? I can't get a fix.... Did a clean flash of Mokee but still no GPS Fix
EDIT #2 : OK now it works, just have o erase modemst1 and modemst2 with fastboot
Hi everyone,
I've been enjoying Mokee for a week, flashed nightlys every two days and just discovered that their OTA system just download the changes from the rom installed to the new build. I tried to DL it and flash but I've an endless bootanimation after.
Is it the same for you too? Thanks

I don't use OTA.
I heard that it broke ever, then they fixed. I'll link to him.
Try using the Release builds instead. More stable and OTAs are every week or so.
Yes but releases are odexed and xposed does not work with odexed roms
Ok, I don't ever use Xposed with custom roms. Just stock.
Caution ! The 28/06 nightly doesn't work !
I will go back to CM because the 29/06 crashes when I use a theme.
Great rom but I honestly can't see the advantage over CM. Ota would be a plus but it fails.
Back on CM with Cyandelta for incremental updates
Another update on Mokee on Thea :
- OTA works great but you must not remove /system apps and modify build.prop however the phone will bootloop.
- OTA doesn't work with Xposed as well, bootloop
- Release versions (odexed ROM) are really smooth and seem to be more battery friendly than nightly releases...
- The ROM is bugfree, I've been using Mokke for two weeks now and no reboot, no freeze, perfect experience

Same here, I'm really happy with Mokee (running release version), no bugs so far and smooth performance. However I tried as you did to download incremental update through Mokee Center and automatically flash through recovery (TWRP), but got endless boot animation, had to download full ROM and flash after wiping system/data/cache/dalvik.
Does anyone know if Mokee can be upgraded simply by flashing full ROM zip without wiping system and data?
Tried again updating through Mokee Center, this time downloading full ROM. Didn't get endless bootloop, but performance was really bad, moto g suddenly rebooted 2 times, very unstable. I decided to wipe all and reflash manually through TWRP. Working fine now... it seems that auto-update are not working very well. Anyone who didn't get those problems and successfully updated through Mokee Center?
I managed to have incremental updates working on release versions. You must not touch anything in /system (you can freeze apps however)
I've been updating like that for two releases and it works
Just a quick for OTA updates on nightly builds with Xposed.
Ota works if you uninstall xposed with the uninstaller zip before flashing OTA !

CM13 - WiFi's stuck on 'Searching for Networks' dialogue

Hey guys, I've been using CM13 builds on my Nexus 6p for last few months. Generally, i flash new builds after 3/4 days from the last one. Everything's works fine, no big issues; but recently from last months build which ever update i flash on the device, the WiFi seems not working. It shows, it's on - Searching for Networks; but not able to connect or even find any network at all. And i tried to flash back to the older builds of CM13, the WiFi works fine on those builds quite fine. Beside this, I've tried Paranoid Android ROM on this device, WiFi works fine on that rom. So, have any of you faced such problem on CM13? And, please can anyone help me out on this matter?... Thanks in advance...

I've been successively flashing the nightlies from 07/24 until today and have had no issues with Wi-Fi. Sounds like yoh crossed over drom June to July build. Flash the July vendor image then re-flash latest cm and you should be good to go. If you use a custom kernel also make sure you are using the latest version made for this month.

Z1c Nougat Roms

1. AOSP, by @freexperia -
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=17562
Tested 2/27 AOSP build. Seems smooth and stable overall. Only browser is some kind of experimental one that doesn't work too well, or at least you need to spend more time getting used to it than I was willing to. Camera works, but is as good as any other N camera at this point, (bad).
2. AOSP and Lineage, (CM), 14, micro-g patched, by @MSe1969 - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=155737 - haven't tried yet. I mistakenly linked it to fxp until I just now noticed it. Will try soon...
3. AICP - https://forum.xda-developers.com/so...lopment/rom-aicp-11-0-mm-6-0-1-amami-t3428288
Excellent rom, regular updates, and lots of customization. Some people have posted about dropped calls in recent builds, but haven't heard of other issues. Magisk integrated. If someone can figure out how to get a good camera, you could hardly ask for more.
4. AOSP by @CLINTZ9 - https://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/orig-development/aosp-t3317511
I haven't been able to get it to boot, (error in twrp). OP says to ignore error and flash, but it won't flash anything for me. I think others have, though, so maybe just something I'm missing. Let me know.
5. LOS by micha-btz - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=153937
Just stumbled across it, and my BL is currently re-locked, so plan on trying soon...
Update - tried today and works well, everything seemed to function. Bad camera as usual, and I couldn't get back into recovery for some reason. I had to flash a different kernel first...
6. CM14/LOS builds by @derf elot https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=41716
7. AOSP builds by SonyAOSP team, (@davidteri91) - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=187966
8. LOS 14 by @Hazou - https://forum.xda-developers.com/so...opment/rom-unofficial-lineageos-14-1-t3636822
Haven't tried yet. Let us know...
9. LOS 14 by munjeni - https://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/development/rom-t3657384 Probably the best yet. Excellent camera. Some have had random reboots on latest build, but maybe fixed with this - http://munjeni.myiphost.com/system.rar
10. Sudamod by @maz-1 - https://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/development/rom-sudamod-3-1-t3666092
Testing now, LOS-based with some custom tweaks. Fast and smooth, fully working. Op says camera is good, even though 3.1 kernel, pictures look OK so far, going to test more in the light. Very nice ROM.
11. M-ROM port by @dmgZero - https://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/development/m-rom-v2-4-0-t3711381
Stock Nougat style and apps on custom (Carbon) rom. Very nice. Original dev seems to have abandoned xda, but rom has been popular on several devices up to v2.3.1 (I use it on Z3c [https://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/development/rom-los-xperia-ui-z3c-t3654894]). 2.4 was never posted on xda, AFAIK, but posted on a Chinese site called 0z4l, or something, but not possible to download without registration, and I couldn't get successful registration. dmgZero has modded it, apparently. I haven't tried it, since I'm using Z3c at the moment...
BTW - seems to be some degree of controversy around the security of latest version. Check device threads and judge for yourself.
12. Flyme OS by @dmgZero - https://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/development/m-rom-z1cflyme6-8-1-22r-t3742581 I'm mainly on Xc now, so check thread for reports...
to those that have tried the FXP 7.0 (nougat) rom:
did you encounter any other problems besides the non working camera?

hi good day. I'm pretty new to flashing
I managed to install some custom rom and gapps with TWRP.
so I'm now a bit more confident in installing new roms
there's so many custom roms, I don't know which to choose. I need something not bloated, fast, and fully working camera. any help is greatly appreciated.
(or maybe I just should root the stock rom and uninstall bloated apps ?)

For the short answer, he's probably right - Jaguar Is excellent. However, there are now very good roms for this phone in kk, lp, mm, and now n, so there's lots to try. If stability and camera are your main priorities, go with stock-based, or Jaguar. Personally, I don't feel debloating is necessary, if you use an app-management app, like AFwall, or 3C toolbox.
thanks guys !! i shall try jaguar !

Hi there,
I made a CM14.1 build for amami for you to try, based on the sources of sonyxperiadev, SonyCM and SonyAosp. So a big thank you is in order to everyone involved in these projects. I only modified the sonyxperiadev amami sources to work with this build, set SELinux to enforced and removed the Gello browser from the build (there are more updated derivatives on the Play Store anyway).
I have run it for a little bit, and noticed the following bugs so far:
- deepsleep not working when wifi is on (I think)
- camera sometimes force closes, sometimes works (known memory leak bug I think, cam is work in progress)
- lots of CM stuff is not there yet, including themes (remember, CM14.1 is a work in progress)
- ?
To install it, you most likely need real recovery with TWRP3. It includes the new Sony init, so reboot to recovery from ROM works. I'm currently using it with latest OpenGapps and SuperSU, which both seem to work fine as well.
The Z1C is currently my secondary phone, but once it becomes more stable and feature-rich and once Xposed is available for 7.1 (fingers crossed), I will probably also build for the Z3C. Unless we get to see some official CM love again of course.
