Remember to not have a screenlock with more than 3x3 if u update from previous build , i had and couldnt put it in ...
Did a factory reset then , flashed 4.2 and gapps 4.2 , booted up first run.
Talk to speech crashes several times at first startup , baseband no good (im in Norway), very weak signal

Quarx recommended on Facebook to wipe data before updating. And like he said, almost everything doesn't work properly. So, not ready for daily use.

Cant find SD card +settings crashes when you try to access storage..

Quarx will solve that in the next build don't worry. It's not working for anyone. It's just a Demo rom so please wait until master quarx releases a daily usable rom.

New unofficial version
After install some times in nany ways and settings I confirmed that new 4.2 version is good for defy hardware and custom kernel.
I still worry when Quarx2k implements the CM feautures if this is bug the rom.
But now...
1 - With or without gapps (4.2 or 4.1.2) the initial settings show erros.
2 - GSM signal is very weak, but phone tottaly functional.
3 - Widgets are not full sized on screen ( all go to left on screen).
4 - Phone with lot of memory and flows very good.
Where can I download gapps 4.2?
I hope the data dropouts i have in CM10 will be solved in CM10.1 but dont have my hopes up to high because they been there so long now that i dont even know when they started, might have been already on CM9 but im not sure.
Another thing that worries me a bit is that the system space is not big enough while internal storage atleast for me is on over 1GB, possible to make the system space bigger?
Cheers?

We can't resize system rom, because we have locked bootloader & i think 2ndboot will not help. Solution - unistall not need system apps, hint: unistall CMWallpapers - it will free about 10MB in SROM
Could this app solve the SD problem?

My name is Skripka and I approve of this. :good:
Excited to try this out. Read up on OmniRom, I am particularly interested in the multi-workspace piece.
I just started working with JIRA at my workplace, I was just thinking today that it would be great for Rom developers.

Out of curiosity, I thought that Cyanogen and Omni were separate since CM went commercial..? I thought that some of the CM devs (like Chainfire, XplodedWild, and Dees_Troy) were upset with that and decided to start their own ROM (hence OmniRom)...
Regardless, I'm very excited to see OmniRom has its own page now in our Android Development. It will make it much easier to see how each nightly performs and if there are any bugs that need to be reported.
Additionally, there's a lot of info/support/feature requests/etc here.
Thanks slick_rick!!

On Omni's page they talk about mulitwindow being up to the individual dev who brings it to each device. Is it possible to get that added in the future, or is that going to be up to Omni?
Thanks for the info and thanks for your hard work!!
Thanks for all your hard work and not given up on us like people's. Just downloaded and look forward to trying it out. On a side note I've been spending all my free time in the XDA University forums trying to teach myself how to compile and build. I've got Ubuntu and all the tools but having a 14 month old son n being a single dad in the evenings haven't given me much free time to practice and read.
So i can appreciate all the time and effort you put in to doing this all.
Thank you slick-rick for this great ROM. For me, everything is running flawlessly so far but I have a question. I used Phil's Touch to install the ROM originally and as I mentioned it's running great. This morning I checked for an update and there is a new nightly available. When I went through the process to install the nightly it said that it was only compatible with TWRP. Is this correct, or is it OK to continue with the installation even though I have Phil's Touch? Thank you again for all your work.

Which Nightly did you install? Any nightly build after 1/10 or so should be able to OpenDelta update script via PhilZ/CWM just fine.

'no service' issue
I had this rom running for a couple of days, then had an issue with an app (xbmc), and decided to go back to macksrom....didn't realize that once you install 4.4.2, you can't go back to 4.1.2...anyway after trying to restore to macksrom failed twice on the data restore, I went ahead and reloaded omnirom, and worked through the xbmc issue....didn't realize until my wife found me at the grocery store that after bringing it back via restore I had no service...and I couldn't find anyway to get service either....
Is this a known issue, or do you know if I did something wrong?

Tried this for two days - one mostly on WiFi and one out and about. First day on WiFi I got waaaaaaay better battery, but the second day I got not so good results with Google maps - it took a while to "find my location"....also with location set to 'Device Only', I got high battery use from the weather channel app I have installed, and Dashclock widget can't find my geo location and report.... I think I'll take the slightly higher battery drain with a fully functioning GPS setting.
Thanks for the tip though - it could be super handy for someone mostly on WiFi.

If you're not traveling, just set DashClock's location manually. Can't vouch for Weather Channel's app, but Weatherbug Elite plays fine with it and doesn't care.
The location pinging with Google Now is insane...and there's no way I know to stop the thousands of location wakelocks short of changing the location preference. Not even changing the app permissions for the location services does any good. And that isn't just an OmniROM issue, but for ever 4.4 ROM I know of.
Because of all the slowdowns in kitkat, I decided to give ICS another try.
Specs:
-Based on CyanogenMod 9
-With Mackay kernel (updated to 3.0.101, updated governors & schedulers, XL RAM some other nice stuff):
https://github.com/kasperhettinga/samsung-kernel-aries/commits/mackay-cm9-2014
-TWRP 2.2.2.0
-no 720p possible, XLMem (do not ask for other flavours, I just make a one-flavour option tuned for smoothness)
Download:
https://s.basketbuild.com/devs/kasperhettinga/sgs/rom/pre-KK//
Gapps:
http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip
This are the latest official gapps. Newer gapps can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.om/showpost.php?p=50748003&postcount=135
(I haven't tested this package, I also don't think latest gapps is relevant, as gapps get updated through Play Store anyway)
Install:
-From existing CM9: install on top + flash gapps
-From any jellybean ROM: you can try to install it on top, but it may result in bootloops, requiring flashing GB through Odin (see below for next steps). Flash ROM. Flash gapps.
-From stock Samsung GB: install CF-ROOT-CWM kernel, or any other CWM containing kernel. Flash ROM. Flash gapps.
You need to flash gapps on every new build, backup/restore of gapps does not work yet!
If you have space issues, you can use a solution to bind /datadata to /data partition:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50653795&postcount=55
THIS IS NOT AN ADVICE TO DO THIS! I do not like this solution, as it will slow down your phone (especially with the slow internal memory chip). And it goes against my lean & mean philosophy for this ROM. Therefore: please think well before doing this!

Are there any cherrypicks from CM10/11 or other aosp based builds to this interesting project?

Few bugs:
1. About Phone - CM Upader = FC Settings
2. Preformence = No schedular option
Runs smooth and excellent.

Wow, that was totally unexpected! Thank you very much! @kasper_h I was wondering: does your rom use the older partition layout, that was introduced in ics, which caused datadata to be full, or the jb one? It would be awesome if you switched to the newer partition layout *.*

You remember it wrong
ICS always had a small system & small datadata partition, both on the fast Onenand. This was actually the fastest layout I ever worked with. The changes in layout all happened in jellybean. And I will not start using jellybean partition layouts: I strive for speed and simplicity, which fits perfectly with the ICS layout.

@kasper_h I have 3 questions:
1. No 720p support at all or only 720p recording is disabled but 720p playback still works?
2. If there's no Performance->Scheduler option in ICS, can schedulers be selected using other ways?
3. zRAM , KSM are still there ? (sorry I am used to your KK kernel)
Ty!

1. 720 playback should work, but I didn't check and I don't have my phone here now
2. Yes, any cpu tuning app like nstools can be used
3. zRAM is on the to-do list, KSM should already work

Alright then I have a problem though: I can't donwload any apps from the Play Store, also, it won't update itself. The error I get when I try to download something is 403
WOOOHOO!
My dreams came true, it actually happened!
You know, I was testing out CM9 a few times and I noticed huge improvements in smoothness and stuff like that, but the most impressive thing that I realised was that the chrome browser was not lagging at all! I think this means something!
I just have a few questions:
Is it possible to port CMA here? (it's not really necessary, I'm just wondering)
Aaand what about all those super cool features from Omni ROMs? Is there any way to port those? (again it's not necessary at all, I'm just asking)
Anyway I hope the development of this ROM will continue. Going to install this right away! :laugh: :good: :good:
If you'll continue working on this ROM and we'll continue using it, we can make together the fastest and the best ROM ever made for our SGS, I believe!

Wow, our aging i9000 gets an encore ICS build!

I have a question regarding my old official CM9 nandroid backup done with Semaphore 1.3.0: is it worth trying to advanced restore only its data with Sema 1.3.0 to this ROM, and then flash this ROM over it to retain Mackay kernel back and my beloved TWRP with it?

Google Play Store is not updating itself aswell. Got the same problem with 403 . Coming from Android 4.4.2, I've flashed an Android 4.3.1 kernel, reboot to recovery, flashed CM9 twice, full wipe with system format, flashed Mackay CM9 and ICS gapps. Full wiped and system format, flashed the ROM again with gapps and the 403 error was still there. Then I've tried to go back to CM11 and the 403 error persisted.
Went back to stock GB and rooted it using Odin3 and then flashed Mackay CM9 and ICS gapps, now 403 is not showing up but another error appeared (921) and I've tried to clear data for Download Manager, Google Play Store, Google Services Framework, removed my Google Account and rebooted. Then I've re-added the Google Account and now the 403 error reappeared.
@kasper_h got any ideas ?

-CMA is not worth it, would hardly give more free RAM.
-Due to major overhauls in Android between ICS->JB->KitKat it will be nearly impossible to port anything back. Also, my motto for this ROM is lean & mean.

My play store is working and was updated automatically. I could manually install apps, and some gapps (TTS, Search) were updated fine as well. Maybe try deleting Play Store data, as that seems like the best way in any Android revision to solve Play Store issues.

Why dont make 4.4 fastest :/
Hi there,
I installed PA 4.45 and it was quite buggy on my GT-I9300 (I think my Samsung Galaxy S3 is a AOSPA / legacy device).
I upgraded to PA 4.5 beta 4. Seems quite stable for me. Good job guys!
In PA OTA I see only updates for 4.6 but no update for 4.5.
My question now is (for people who have experience with PA on the GT-I9300 and PA 4.6):
Is 4.6 using more resources (since I have a legacy device, I'm concerned about performance) or the general perceived performance would be similar to 4.5?
I want to know if it's better to wait for a final 4.5 release (will there be any, or updates will come only for 4.6?) or try 4.6.
Thank you for letting me know.
I have been using PA since V4 came out on my i9300. Can say that everything up to 4.6 was amazing, but ever since flashing 4.6 beta 4 (coming from 4.5 beta 4) I have nothing but trouble. Total system freeze (low ram probably) 10 ~ 20 seconds after booting, or 5 seconds after starting the first app. Since I haven't done a clean install in a while I'm giving that a try.
If I don't forget I will post the results.
[EDIT]
Also should mention the heating problems that came with 4.6 beta 4 (but that may just be the dirty flash after all).

Thanks for sharing your experiences, I was thinking to upgrade to 4.6 beta 5, but after reading your post I'm a bit afraid...
For now I'm experiencing with 4.5 beta 4 the following problems:
Often when I set a timer, after a few minutes I get an error (dialog with error) that the clock app crashed. But the timer still works... strange. Sometimes the timer then doesn't trigger the alarm in the end.
Also I get a dialog with an error of the ui that crashed. But the system seems working well anyway: no need to restart or so, just the dialog with the error...
See screenshots in attachment...
PA 4.6beta5
I'm currently using PA 4.6beta5 on my i9300 and it's excellent!
No issue, no problem.
Never had low memory problem.
But I've a clean installation (I've wiped all before install)
I have had a LOT of trouble the past few weeks, to the point where flashing a stock rom via odin wouldn't boot and crazy stuff like that. I think it might be hardware related, but after formatting everything and reinstalling it's been working fine now. Only thing is the heating/battery drain problem. It turned out to be google+, so disabling that in apps solved the problem. Running quite smoothly for over two weeks now.

Hallo Rahimali
Thanks for the share. I have tried this and apparently works ok. I'm unable to get WiFi working. Tried different gapps but there are force close issues. Any recommended gapps versions available?
Opengapps usually does the job. Flashing gapps with marshmallow is different than with prior android versions. With MM you have to flash gapps immediately after you flash the ROM (before booting up the ROM for the first time). Try and see if that resolves your FC issues

I managed to get the force close issues resolved. Everything works fine except Wifi. I am unable to enable wifi as the button is greyed out. I tried enabling wifi from terminal using svc wifi enable, it enabled the button but wouldnt detect any available wireless networks. Any fixes for this?

Sorry no idea. Nobody is complaining in the 4pda forums about any WiFi issues. Did you do a clean flash? Maybe the developer, @ilichva can help?
bootloader and recovery
My XT907 is showing that my bootloader is "0x109B" and I am unsure what version of TWRP supports 6.0.1 (currently running 2.8.6.0)
Can anyone verify their settings and let me know?
I am running CM12.1 currently, so I should be able to dirty flash correct?
Thanks guys!
KKBL?
Anyone know of a marshmallow based rom that works with the kitkat bootloader for this device?

Are there any significant reasons to stay on the KitKat bootloader? Otherwise I'll just downgrade now that I'm rooted with an unlocked bootloader.
One of the most compelling reasons to stick with the KKBL would be the availability of the 3.4x kernel as opposed to the 3.0x kernel on the JBBL but feel free make your own decision. I was on the JBBL (by choice) for a considerable length of time without any apparent side effects...
Would you mind adding dates to post #1?
Any updatefor this rom?

That is correct.
Confirmed Working!
Can confirm this works, flashed the recovery included in the 4pda post, used it to flash the rom, gapps, and supersu. Initially booted up in Russian, but after waiting for 30 seconds or so, switched to English on its own. Setup was flawless after that, no issues to report as of now. Anyone that needs help installing the rom or downgrading from kitkat to jellybean just message me.
I thought I was the only one that ended up with default language in Russian... All the previous builds defaulted to English on install... Also when I downloaded the latest update it downloaded on my phone as a .bin not a .zip I checked the file size and contents vs what is online (after changing the extension to .zip) and everything seemed to be Ok so I installed and been up and running on latest version for 24 hours....
Had a few FC's in the beginning while changing the language to English (I have a feeling that some of my already installed apk's caused the issue) . I did do a test run before restoring my stuff and didn't have any issues during initial setup and the phone auto corrected language based off sim during initial setup.
Haven't gotten a chance to fully test this build, but I know that the issue that I was having with the native tethering soft rebooting the phone every couple of hours when active is gone! After a few more days of messing with it I will post any other issues that I come across

Any clue about why I'm getting error 7 while finishing the last steps of the ROM flashing procedure?
