[Feature Request] Some suggestions - Omni Features Development

Hey! I started using OMNI a month ago, and I can tell it's my favorite ROM. I'm missing some features and I have some suggestions, so here's a little list:
- Mobile Service tile flippable, that sets between 2G only, 2G/3G, ALL
- It'd be nice if the service tile itself shown a little "x" when mobile data is disabled.
- Sound tile with options of user's choosing (sound/vibrate, vibrate, sound, mute)
- Stay awake tile that prevents the screen from timing out
- An option to always agree to Google Location Consent, it's a pain when switching between different location modes in the location tile
- Increasing alarm volume (I'd be SO thankful for this one)
- An option to enable black background instead of a black/gray gradient (saves battery on AMOLED screens and looks better in my opinion)
- An option to set notification drawer transparency
- Notification that quiet hours are enabled (on the right side of the notification bar)
I'll update the list as soon as the features get implemented or I think of something new.

Request FileExplorer bundled in OmniRom
To Omni Devs. Excellent work and concepts in your OmniRom KKat 442.
Request is to include a basic or EsFileExplorer bundled in your release ROMs.
Reason being is to give direct access to sdcards. Mainly ( in my case ) to install saved personal app/apk.
Without the need of googleplay&accounts etc.
Also for real Noobs who may not have Google accounts/internet etc.
Hope you see my point re file explore.
Realise you may implement app/apk installs via Document explorer in future releases.
Cheers bmad.

You could simply make a flashable zip or install it via adb.

i would like to make one more suggestion, for a feature i think it'd be great, it may take a bit of space after a while but anyways..
just think if omnirom could save you time and money by increasing internet browsing speeds and decrease data consumed to do so all in one feature (please note this method might not be for everyone). to do this would be to cache all the websites you visit most on to your internal,or external sd card or otg connected drive, with all options optional. i have not a clue how to do this or even where to start but just a suggestion for someone to maybe (hopefully) look into.

CyanogenMod 10.1
When it comes to the custom ROM scene for Android, the one name that instantly comes to our minds is CyanogenMod, and for good reason!
Let's take an in-depth look at CyanogenMod 10.1 and all the features it offers that make it one of the best custom Android ROMs around.

Look And Feel
One of the key philosophies behind CyanogenMod is to focus on functionality rather than design, and that’s been a great thing since ICS when Android’s design got revamped to what it is now. That’s why on the surface, CyanogenMod 10.1 may look just like pure vanilla Android, and for good reason, since it is based on pure vanilla Android, meaning you wouldn’t find even the slightest traces of HTC Sense, Samsung TouchWiz, MOTOBLUR or any such manufacturer-customized version of Android in it, as you can see below in the home screen and the app drawer of CyanogenMod 10.1.
That said, there are a plethora of changes under the hood that set it apart from plain vanilla Android. The launcher itself may look like that of stock Android, but it’s actually CyanogenMod’s own custom version called Trebuchet. If you try dragging an icon somewhere, you’ll start seeing the extra options it offers, and that’s just the start.
As you can see lower, you can not only remove the icon, but also edit it. Furthermore, CyanogenMod ships with a collection of wallpapers of its own (CM Wallpapers), in addition to Android’s default ones.
CyanogenMod Apps
You must have noticed a few extra apps in the app drawer screenshot above. None of them have been added from the Play Store (that screenshot was taken immediately after installing the ROM), but rather ship with CyanogenMod itself. They include a media player, a file browser and a terminal emulator. The former two are CyanogenMod-exclusive while the terminal emulator is same as the Android Terminal Emulator app available on Play Store.
Also, while the messaging app may look exactly like the stock one, it is in fact heavily modified to deliver a much more powerful and customizable experience. Lastly, you’ll notice an icon for Sound Recorder in the app drawer. It is actually a system app that comes as a part of Android itself, it is hidden from the app drawer by default and is accessible as a recording feature within other components of the OS; CyanogenMod adds an icon for it to provide users direct access to it.
The inclusion of a media player and a file manager ensures that if you choose not to rely on Google’s ecosystem or just want to use the ROM on a device that you want to keep offline, you already start off with all the basic apps that you’re going to need.
There is also a DSP Manager app here, as well as the cLock app that doesn’t show up in the app drawer but can be seen as a widget right on the home screen as well as the lock screen, but we’ll be taking a look at both these in the Settings section, as they are both configurable from there.
CyanogenMod 10.1 Settings
What makes CyanogenMod truly powerful is the plethora of additional settings it offers for customizing the ROM and having a more complete control over Android’s features. All these settings can be found within the default Settings app, laid out in the same settings interface that you’re already familiar with. Let’s take a more detailed look at them in the order they appear. Note that we’ll only be reviewing the settings that have been added by CyanogenMod, and will therefore skip the unmodified sections.
Cell Broadcasts
For most part, the ‘Wireless & Networks’ section of the Settings remains close to stock, though you’ll notice one new option under the ‘More…’ option by the name of Cell Broadcasts. This basically lets you choose which cell broadcast messages you want to receive, and opt out of the ones you don’t want to bother you. These include alerts for extreme and severe threats, AMBER alerts, ETWS (Earthquake Tsuname Warning System) alerts and CMAS (Commercial Mobile Alert System) broadcasts. In addition to opting out of them, you can also choose change alert settings such as notifications, sound, vibration, sound duration, text-to-speech for speaking out alerts, and showing opt-out dialog after displaying the first CMAS alerts to be able to easily disable them (other than presidential alerts).
Launcher
As mentioned above, CyanogenMod ships with Trebuchet as its home screen launcher, which looks identical to the stock Android launcher but is way more customizable, and this is where you can tweak it to your liking.
Many Android users complain about the lack of landscape mode for their home screen. Trebuchet takes care of that by adding support for landscape mode and auto rotation, which you can enable here. And if you have just customized your home screen to your liking and fear messing it up by mistake, you can set everything to stay locked in place. You can also hide the status bar to extend the home screen further, though we’d suggest you read on and see what else is in store for you in the full screen department, and you’ll forget about this option alltogether!
In the Home Screen section, you can tweak a lot of options pertaining to the way things are displayed on your home screens. Each option comes with a description to make sure you don’t feel lost.
The Drawer section lets you customize how apps are displayed in your Apps and widgets drawer. You can choose between transition effects, join the sections together and even hide apps selectively.
Lastly, you can customize the dock by changing the number of apps it displays, adding more pages to it that you can then access by swiping on it sideways just like the home screens, and more.
Lock Screen
CyanogenMod’s lock screen comes with a bunch of additional features, and the first one that you’ll notice is multiple shortcuts to directly launch the apps of your choice.
What’s more – these shortcuts are fully customizable! Just hit ‘Slider shortcuts’ under Lock screen, and you’ll be able to easily assign a different one to each slot and even select a custom icon for it.
In addition to these shortcuts, you can choose your lock screen security type, and tweak several options for the selected one such as making the pattern visible, choosing a 4×4, 5×5 or even 6×6 pattern in addition to the default 3×3 one, toggle visibility for pattern, errors and dots, and set separate custom delays for automatic screen lock after timeout and manual screen off, etc.
Themes
If you’re finding things to be a but too dull and completely stock so far in terms of looks, your patience is about to be rewarded. CyanogenMod ships with a powerful theme engine that can change the look of the entire UI based on the theme you choose. Some themes may change just the app icons on your home screens and in the app drawer, some change how the menus look, some apply to widgets as well, and then there are those that change pretty much everything. We like Android’s own stock looks but are big fans of transparency, and the awesome HOLO GLASS theme lets us apply that to the stock settings app as well as many other components of the OS, as you can see in the screenshots below.
Although no extra themes are shipped with CM by default, you can find countless options available in both free and paid variants on Google Play, XDA-Developers and many other Android modding communities – just search on Google for it and you’ll find more options at your disposal than you’ll know what to do with.
Before we move on to the next section, here’s how HOLO GLASS has changed our Dialer and Messaging apps. The background is actually our desktop wallpaper, not just a static background applied to these apps.
System
This is perhaps the most extensively customizable section of the entire ROM. Here, you can tweak major UI components such as the status bar, the quick settings panel, the notification drawer, the power menu and the navigation bar as well as toggle the expanded desktop (full screen) mode and Pie controls (yes, CyanogenMod 10.1 includes Paranoid Android’s famous controls), and customize LED notifications.
Status bar
When it comes to the status bar, you can show/hide the clock as well as choose AM/PM display, and change the battery and signal icon styles from several available options. You can even set the status bar itself as a brightness control slider that will change brightness as you swipe your finger along it.
Quick Settings panel
Starting with Jelly Bean, Android ships with a section in the notification pull-down that acts as a quick settings panel. CyanogenMod basically supercharges it, letting you customize it to your liking.
You can add, remove and reposition toggles, and also specify how some of them behave. There are plenty of options available to add, pretty much for every feature you’d want. We have customized ours to add the features we need to quickly access most often, as you can see in the second screenshot below.
For quick and convenient access, you can even set this panel to always appear by default when you swipe down from the edge of your choice (left or right) on the status bar.
Power widget
If you don’t fancy the above controls and would rather have a small list of toggles right in the regular notification shade, the Power widget can do just that for you.
You can select what buttons display in it, specify their order, and tweak some appearance & behavior settings for the widget.
Expanded desktop
Want to utilize your screen real estate to the fullest? Why not get rid of the status bar as well as the navigation bar? Just choose whether you’d want the status bar to remain visible or not in this mode, and you’ll then be able to go full-screen by selecting the option from the power button’s long-press menu.
Here is how the home screen and your apps will appear while expanded desktop is enabled. As you can see, I have set the status bar to be hidden in the first one and visible in the second one, while the navigation bar is hidden in both in this mode.
Power menu
When you long-press the power key, you get more options in CyanogenMod than in stock Android, as you must have noticed in the screenshot shown in the Expanded desktop section above. A great thing about these options is that you can choose the ones you want to be displayed in the menu.
In the second screenshot, we have stripped down the power menu to the bare essentials, removing all the additional options except for ‘Reboot’ from it to get back to basics.
Clock widget
CyanogenMod ships with a clock widget of its own called cLock that works on both the home screen and the lock screen. It’s the same widget that you have seen on the home screen and lock screen images above. In addition to the time and date, it is capable of displaying weather conditions (from Yahoo! Weather) as well as your calendar events, and all this information is customizable from here.
For the clock, you can choose between analog and digital items, toggle the display of any alarms that you have set, and customize the clock’s display colors and font.
When it comes to weather conditions, you can toggle them on/off, choose weather source, set a custom location if you want (it uses your current location by default), and tweak several visual aspects of the weather display. For your calendar events, you can specify what calendars to display events from, how far into the future to look, what types of events to show and hide and what information to display for each event, along with visual tweaks for how the events are displayed. The settings will apply to the widget on both your home screen and lock screen.
Sound
To what extent can one customize sounds of an Android device, you ask? Just take a look at the Sounds section of CM settings – it spans three screens, and that’s excluding any sub-sections! As you can see below, there are options for everything ranging from volume controls, ring mode and volume panel style to music effects, quiet hours, ringtone choice, system sound toggles, headset-related tweaks and more!
As you can see above, it’s hard to think of a sound-related option that hasn’t been considered here. All options available here are self-explanatory, as you can see in case of the volume panel style below.
This section houses two great features namely Quiet hours and Music effects (DSP Manager). Let’s take a more detailed look at each of them.
Quiet hours
The Quiet hours feature is pretty awesome; it lets you specify times when you don’t want to be disturbed, and even lets you choose the type of alerts you want to disable for notifications during these hours, including sound, haptic feedback, vibrations and notification LED.
Music effects (DSP Manager)
Remember the app icon for DSP Manager that we mentioned when taking a look at the CyanogenMod apps? It is a killer app that can tweak the sound output of your device in a way that you’ll find it hard to believe your ears!
You can enable features such as bass boost, dynamic range compression and a full graphic equalizer separately for your phone’s speaker, wired earphones and Bluetooth headsets.There are several equalizer presets available, and you can choose the strength level for any effects you apply.
Display
Unlike the ‘Sound’ section, you wouldn’t see a plethora of options under Display, but that’s because the UI tweaks have already been covered to the extreme in the earlier sections and there’s little to do with the display beyond that. However, CM still manages to squeeze an extra option in here in form of customizable auto-rotate settings.
In addition to the default on/off, you can now specify the angles your device can rotate to, and even set the volume buttons to automatically swap when in landscape mode (volume-up becomes volume-down and vice versa) that can be more optimal on some devices (depending on the volume button position).
CyanogenMod 10.1 - part. 2
Profiles
CyanogenMod 10.1 ships with a powerful profile system that allows you to set how your device behaves when different profiles are active. You can switch to a profile from the power menu (by long-pressing the power button) and then tapping Profile. Your currently active profile name is shown there by default.
These profiles aren’t limited to merely choosing the volume levels or screen brightness levels – you can specify settings ranging from features like mobile data, Bluetooth, GPS, Wi-Fi, syncing and hotspot mode to individual volume levels for alarms, media, ringtones and notifications, and choose your desired ringing and lock screen modes for each profile.
Not only that, but you can also manage how different applications behave for each profile, which is made easy with application groups.
You can create as many new profiles as you want, or edit the existing ones to your liking. Similarly, you can add or remove apps to the existing groups, or create new groups of your own, and specify settings you’d want for them for each profile under that profile.
You can have one profile where everything is silent except for incoming calls, and all app notifications are also silenced other than for an app group you’ve created by the name of VoIP, in which you have Viber, Tango and Skype etc. Or you could have a profile in which only notifications from your social media apps are ignored – whatever your requirements, you can create a profile tailored for them.
Security
CyanogenMod offers enhanced security options for your lock screen, some of which we have looked at earlier in the Lock screen customization section. Under the Screen lock section in Security, you get more flexibility in certain options, specifically when it comes to the pattern lock. In addition to the regular 3×3, you can also set up to a 6×6 pattern for added security.
Also, you’ll notice a new option at the end of the Security section labeled SMS message limit. It lets you define how many messages can an app automatically send within a set time interval before it is deemed as suspicious activity and requires confirmation from you for any additional texts.
Language & Input
You’ll see mostly standard options over here as well, with the exception of two new ones: a Selector notification toggle, and Volume key cursor control.
In case have multiple input methods (like keyboards) installed, enabling Selector notifications will show you a persistent notification for selecting the input method to use whenever an input field is active. The volume key cursor control option, on the other hand, lets you control the on-screen cursor – where present – using the device’s volume keys.
Developer Options
Being Android 4.2,*-based, CyanogenMod 10.1 comes with the Developer options section hidden by default, so you’ll need to unhide it before you can tinker with the settings there.
unHIDE developer options -how to
Go to ‘Settings’ > ‘About phone’.
Repeatedly tap on ‘Build number’ seven times. That’s it!
You’ll see a few options added by CyanogenMod here as well, in addition to the standard options found in stock Android. You can toggle the advanced reboot menu from here that lets you directly reboot into bootloader or recovery, in addition to the normal rebooting.
The Launch Tools section here is meant to provide developers with quick access to several tools that can come handy when developing or debugging their apps. These include a vast range of tools such as Accounts Tester, Bad Behavior, Cache Abuser, Configuration, Connectivity, GTalk Service Monitor, Holo Spiral, Instrumentation, Media Provider, Package Browser, Pointer Location, Running processes, Sync Tester and Water (Live wallpaper).
Getting back to the main Developer options menu, you can also choose the root access level between apps only, ADB only, both apps & ADB, or none, toggle displaying the USB debugging notification icon while debugging mode is enabled, and enter hostname of your choice for identification in ADB mode.
Lastly, by scrolling all the way to the bottom, you can set the back button to kill the currently active app upon long-press, in order to quickly terminate misbehaving apps.
Superuser
Pretty much every custom ROM comes already rooted, and CyanogenMod is no exception. Though instead of the conventional Superuser app by ChainsDD or SuperSU app by Chainfire, CyanogenMod 10.1 comes with root management functionality built into the ROM’s settings interface itself, in form of Superuser by Koush (the guy behind ClockworkMod recovery and a senior CM developer). It works just like you’d expect – asking you for root permissions whenever an app requests them, and showing you a list of apps that you have granted or denied permissions.
From the list, you can tap an app’s entry to see its root permissions and make Superuser forget the remembered setting in case you want to change its access, which you can then do when prompted upon launching it next. In addition, you can see a log of all root access elevation attempts made by apps, and whether they were allowed or denied.
From Superuser’s settings, you can set if superuser access should be restricted to apps, ADB or both, toggle a setting that would show superuser requests from only those apps that declare that they require root access, choose the default automatic response to these requests, add a PIN protection so that no one else can grant apps root access, choose a timeout interval of your choice, toggle logging and tweak notification settings for the toasts that appear when apps are granted or denied superuser access.
Performance
If you’ve ever overclocked your Android device, you’re likely familiar with the SetCPU app. While many other ROMs would require you to use that or some other similar app to make the best of your custom kernel, CyanogenMod has everything taken care of in this department as well. Under ‘Performance’, you’ll find all the options you’ll ever need to tweak your processor, I/O scheduler and memory management exactly the way you want. You can also enable 16-bit transparency and choose a color dithering method of your choice for improving the graphics output.
For the processor, you can choose your CPU governor and set the minimum as well as maximum CPU frequency of your choice. For our Galaxy S Advance, the default CyanogenMod kernel provided a bunch of CPU governors and frequency options to choose from.
You can similarly choose your I/O scheduler, and zRam size. There are a few additional options available as well, like allowing purging of bitmap assets when freeing up RAM and setting your chosen CPU & I/O scheduler settings to apply each time you reboot your device.
CyanogenMod Updates
Found under ‘About phone’, this section is basically what OTA updates are to stock ROMs. Every time a new version of CyanogenMod is out, you will be notified of it, and can download it from here. You can choose how frequently should the ROM check for updates.
You can specify whether you want updates for the stable version only, or for pre-release versions (nightlies and release candidates etc.) as well. Your selected update will then be downloaded and applied via recovery.
This sums up our extensive tour of CyanogenMod 10.1

Feature Requests

Hello All,
I will try to maintain this thread with Feature requests from users.
This is a big as list right here peeps and XpLoDWilD has been taking time to read all the requests and answer them in the document on google docs linked below. Please go through that document before requesting to see if it has already been answered.

Added after XpLoDWilD answers above:-
T9 dialer
Sim Toolkit
Maybe multi window could have an option in the settings menu so we could have the top and bottom app like usual, but be able to have one app extra behind the top and bottom apps and be able to swipe to flip back and forth between apps, thus having 4 apps available on multiwindow?
Music for alarm
I would love to have a support for Note 3 Like ScreenShot wherein you will select the Part of the Screen to be Freezed and Save in to Gallery!
An Object Eraser where you can Remove unwanted things from your Pics like in Micromax Canvas Turbo
On my HTC One the recent apps list is a square list of windows. It would be really cool if we could utilize more of this big screen to display the apps rather than having a horizontal list to scroll through. Imagine if the recent list was displayed in app drawer style. It would very cool and more convenient if you ask me
System Wide Dictionary - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46810572&postcount=234
Multi Window features
Launching applications in 'window mode' from the recents menu (instead of long pressing then hitting add to split view)
Swipe left/right to get rid of the application
Swipe up on an application to put it into the top window
Swipe down on an application to put it into the bottom window
I have been playing with the idea of ungoogle my data (calendar and contacts). I have installed owncloud on my ubuntu server. It would be nice to have a native CalDav and CardDav provider included in Omni so you can sync with alternative sources.
is there any way to do ring alarm while phone is power off?
Maximised lockscreen widgets option
Hide initial page hints on lockscreen
Built-in cryptographic protocols that any app can use to securely transmit encrypted emails/chat/texts. (Cyanogenmod's PushSMS feature)
Features to protect from Google, Facebook and NSA spying.
Support for IP obsfuscating technology like Tor.
Support for the Dark Mail email protocol and support for Mailpile.
Support for Freedombox and related technologies.
Answered by @XpLoDWilD -
Extend Active Display to display time when screen is off and no notifications when hand is waved over proximity sensor, can work as a power button saver as well.
We all know that custom rom flashing is addictive, can we have inbuilt support for backing user app and data as a recovery flashable zip file? either in Android or in recovery?
CYAN 624
Full emoji support
It would be great if false would be changed to true in <bool name="quick_settings_show_rotation_lock">false</bool> in res/values/bools.xml in SystemUI.apk to enable the rotation lock button in the status bar.
Custom led pattern for contacts, as to see who texted or called you. Really use full for devices like the 2013 nexus 7 that does not support multi color led.
Ability to open new notifications from lock screen.
Invisible gesture unlock. I mean, without any dots or anything that signifies that a pass code is to be entered.
Snooze alarm with voice command.
Completely wipe device, with media, if pass code is incorrecly entered enough times.
Ability to share app data with restricted profiles.
Quick access to other users without having to lock and open device again.
Maybe a notification app like on LG, when gaming it just pops up when call comes in and doesnt disrupt the game, if you choose you van pick it up or not.
Or you can ignore it, change mind and ingame swipe notification down to pick up anyway, ingame.
What about something like IOS banners that when a call comes in while you're busy a banner at the top underneath the status bar comes up. Swipe to answer. Click to dismiss. Etc.
From what i know, the kernel has to be customised for every Device, because they all have different Hardware. I dont know how depending these customisations are on each other, or how deep they are coded into the source. But if that would be possible, i would think a developer repository of kernel optimisations for already known hardware would be great, so developing a built for a new device, with partly known hardware, could be much shorter.
Ability to mount Network shares into the device as an external sd-card so that apps directly can access them
how about native reverse tethering? The more aps mess with the connection,like vpn proxy firewall,the less likely it works flawless
Halo
Pie
Floating Window - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40906936&postcount=2
full animation control as well as scrolling animations
ability to have carrier shown in statusbar with the ability to have a custom carrier like in Mokee OS
full control of the launcher, or perhaps even integrated launchers that are changeable
enable and disable the navigation bar like in Slimbean and customize its colours and so forth
reduce zip file size (something similar to slimbean)
ability to move status bar to bottom of phone screen, will be helpful as screen size increases and status bar at top can be a pain sometimes when looking for notifications.
white UI
transparent keyboard
Custom statusbar colors to match app...make it intelligent enough to figure out current app values and just emulate them - extend beyond current availablilty and allow custom colors on a per-icon/clock basis.
MIUI-style theme engine, where you can fine tune elements on a per-app basis, mix-n-match, etc. Would be great if it supported current MIUI/CM themes, but with this expanded functionality. And with MIUI, you can theme anything you know the package name of and can get the resources from.
With PIE - the ability to adjust the width of the trigger area, so if, say, it's at the bottom of the screen, it's only triggered by the middle of the screen, versus taking up the entire bottom.
Native CIFS
Quiet hours
on devices with soft keys (like the ones in s3) there should be an option that would make the keys light up with the notification led.
on devices with virtual keys (Nexus devices for example) swiping from either the left or the right edge of them to the opposite edge would allow to make a cool switch between open apps and swiping up would open recents with cool animation (and the same animation would be shown when the recents key is pushed too) (just like in Chrome Beta (video) that allows to switch between tabs)
a security feature that would allow you to protect an app by showing the "com.example.example crashed" notification and making a secret gesture would open the app (like this)
possibility to copy text from anywhere like from apps like settings or Google+
How about more native google feature support? Like...the stock music player incorporates a google music library, file explorer ties to drive, gallery could use google pictures, messaging/dialer natively support voice? That would be badas$. And chromecast support if Google ever allows it.
I would like to see the hybrid engine of pa on this rom too. Or at least something like it. On big screens like on the find 5 you get better looks on some apps with an lowered dpi!
swipe left and right between open apps
window switcher like on lg g2 rom.
Easy maximizing positioning of windows
multidpi support
How about taking a page from carbon, and making it so when you're on the lockscreen and you hold down the nav ring (where the home button is normally) it turns the torch on.
small but a feature i love is screen shot trash ...when u take a screen shot and it pops up in the notification bar roms like carbon have a trash button near the share button
something ive always like but no rom have it and id had to use 3rd party apps is the battery icon horizontaly like i0s 7 with text next to it every body have circle battery and vertical bout time we have horizontal.
brightness slider.drag your finger accross the notification bar to change brightness.
background transparency in app drawer And scrollable dock icons
Voice plus from CyanogenMod. Very useful for Google voice users
How about per app color for the notification/quick toggles? Always bothered me
Also how about making the display turn more orange when it's late/dark.
Warm colors are easier on the eye in such conditions.That would be a natural development of the auto brightness - kernel so no
Backup of app data to a cloud service. Google may save your settings and re-download your apps, but it does not save your app data. - There are 3rd party apps to do that and omni will never entertain it as it can be used to steal personal data
I really would like to see that in apps like the dialer, the messaging and the people app(contacts) the user would have an opaque or blurry view of the home screen wall paper. Transparency is cool, but bluriness is better.
And it would be nice if the notification panel worked like ubunto os notification. You know, how you can slide between notification pages while scrolling it down.
And the last thing, if you could hide the permanent icons (something like the keyboard's icon or the gmd icon) from notification panel (like in MIUI).
An idea I had was to work on a "directional notification swipe"...example: you have a message....if you swipe right open message apk ready for reply...if you swipe left you just delete notification...same for recalls, maybe for facebook notifications...I don't know if is possible, but it's an idea
Ok, my feature request is simple. Just make how we can interact with our device as efficient and ergonomic as possible. Ability to operate phone by one hand etc. Probably will have different UI for tablet and phone, optimize for each device. Customize nav bar and ring targets (just swiping) are among examples,
one feature that i would like to see is the ability to completely disable the hardware key. MIUI have a feature to do this from the notification panel, but it's not permanent and resets on every boot.
http://opendesign.bbqdroid.org/ port forward the features developed here, and work on the feature requests lying pending there, most of the developers who started opendesign are on omniROM too
camera with smart capture mode like in carbon, slim and liquidsmooth
https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-1122
https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-1301
AirPlay
LMT like Nav-Bar (Not PIE2, more simple, and animated)
And PLEASE respect the color calibration on the N4, if anyone wants to change it, they can do it manually. Some of us actually like the Google pressets.
can you try to enable the voice call "GSM call " ? on nexus tablet specially 2013 .would be awesome if its happen and imagine how many nexus users will install this Rom
turn phone's screen on desktop to mute any sound
gamepad mode (screenoff but touch sensitive) when HDMI OUT
tablet mode on large screen
Japanese/Chinese switching system font option (avoid bad character display)
tap on right/left of device to previous/next music player
build in firewall with simple rule per application (allow/ask/block radio button maybe?)
password on selected applications startup
hidding mode on app drawer, on picture gallerie
multi-users/profiles - being Worked on
It would be nice to have some features that Samsung's touchwiz has... For instance "movements". That is, the hability to use the devices sensor to do some stuff like "flip to mute". Some preset gama settings, a battery saving mode and built-in contact white and blacklist.
I know this is possible with some apps like tasker, but wouldn't be nice for the less tech guys?
It would also be very nice if it would be possible to have a tool for choose the roms features. What is essential and what is optional.
It would be really nice to see you guys implement media control with the volume buttons when the device is locked!
swipe to delete in text message & email apps
ability to save apps on 'external' SD card - Android guys have stopped this for a reason so am guessing a no
Would love to be able to play songs like a pendrive E.g. radio usb ports.. and be able to know what's the charging current of the phone (maybe a dynamic icon for the battery at the quick setting panel. AntTek Explorer as basic explorer!!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2408136
)Swipe to change b/w toggles and panel
Anything like those ubuntu status bar(wher u can swipe over icons to gain info)
A lot of guestures for accessing some features(surprise me over here )
Expandable and expanded volume adjustment window, as in CM.
Volume keys to move cursor r/l, l/r as in CM.
Camera Tile.
Hide status bar/status bar delete (for hidden status bar, there should be an option to disable 'swipe to peek' when in a fullscreen app).
All in one widget with weather,battery,clock,date,alarms set...etc.
Optional Programmed gestures to open (ribbons,app drawer,notifications,camera). Gestures are preferred to prevent accidental opening.
Swipe through open applications with multiple finger gesture.
Button control (allow more/custom actions to be programmed for long presses).
Help : There should be a searchable help because this seems like it will be loaded with features and sometimes you cant find a particular feature you want to edit. This help should be able to easily find the feature as well as a description of what it does.
I think you guys could likely optimize "Profiles" considerably with the addition of the geofence api, perhaps UI and a genetral ease of use overhaul.
A automated data migration (apps, sms etc) within the installer would be awesome
Combined Navbar with customizable buttons, and the popups for notification to display above the navbar instead of on top of it, so you can open the notification tray without having to wait 3 seconds for it to fade.
guest mode lockscreen - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46471023&postcount=78
Fully customizable nav bar like in aokp 7 soft buttons with long press features and icon customizability
Proximity sensor on during a phone call with Bluetooth hands free device connected. This way when the phone is in the pocket, no buttons get pressed accidentally during a call. I don't understand why this feature isn't on by default.
3D Mode - A mode that can be activated and that turns the whole UI (Launcher, Apps, Games,..) to Anaglyph 3D. That could be so cool if it could be done!
On lockscreen have different logins, kind of like how Windows has it, you just tap an icon and put in your password for a different user. They get their own partition with their own apps and data (have like 3 different /data partitions, might be hell to back up in TWRP).
Also have something like PGM on the Nexus 4 and GN built into the kernel and enabled as an option in the device settings.
This may or may not have been in the OP (I didn't see it) but have something like LightFlow LED built into the kernel and ROM for awesome multi-color LED notifications and settings, especially for us Nexus users. But more options like blink speed in ms and multiple color combinations like blue then green then red for Mom, red then blue then orange for Bill etc.
One feature I have always wanted is the ability to have the slide unlock lead to a password or face unlock. It really doesn't seem fair that people should have to sacrifice security to be able to use the lockscreen shortcuts, or the battery indicator on this rom. - already planned
Fixed Volume bugs on the SPHD710 Epic4GTouch. CM Has a speakerphone bug that sounds very low and the micrphone records extremely low that it's pretty much non existent. Ability to wake the phone by saying "Omni on" or how the new Motorola phone listens to voice commands that can control music apps and wake phone from sleep.
Native multitouch gestures and the ability to define the actions; would be a great addition and something that android tablets are lacking behind in.
Theming engine
Groupsms
change the background of the settings app
Blackberry Lockscreen
Apt-X support
- I don't know if the Pv6 privacy extension is standard activated in the newest Android versions but for OmniROM it should be always on or confugurable over the settings.
PIE with a working hardware search key.( What I'm trying to tell is, having a search button in PIE that emulate hardware search buttons like in those old Android phones, not just to open Google Now like the PA or CM PIE but more like LMT or Slim PIE. (Sorry for the inconvenience, English is not my native language. ))
It would be great to have a call notification like the Galaxy Note III. Like this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46514971&postcount=130
Quick Cover support.
SuperUser included
custom height navigation bar (for me is best 32dp and the action area is larger)
only text battery indicator
battery level in lane above of screen
before time in status bar: "day of week" (localized)
option to change "device name" (super for monitoring connected device to AP)
possibility to change layout square in status bar
ofcourse high performance (eg. on Nexus 4 in AnTuTu over 21k points)
resize nav bar
Please add QuickPeek notification bar while playing games.
Seriously about the only thing I want is either on first boot holo light ui or a button to change to light holo. Almost every rom has a button to change to dark holo but not the inverse and its irritating.
As a side feature gesture unlock is cool
Extended quick settings buttons - For example, I use an overlay to show my up- and download rate. But sometimes it's annoying so I would like to be able to turn it on and off easily like my WiFi or my GPS. The app just has to support it. That's it
Random Colors for Quick settings Tiles
How about quick statusbar preview when in full screen apps like on Samsung roms, when you swipe down from top ?
Multi window :
You gotta figure out some way to add apps to multi window without interruption of current process , something like Samsung side bar ?
ATM you have to stop current app by long home press to be able to add new window , so if I was watching some online video I'd have t play it all over again ..
What I wanna say is we need some way to create windowed apps without interrupting ongoing one/ long home press , because this way it's just ugly.
swipe down hide - swipe up show ( feature of GMD )
scrollable nav bar (like notification widgets, you can also put apps/shortcuts/and toggles, and with no scroll bars )( MY IDEA: dunno if someone have already made it )
Dual Layer ( i hope u guys get the point :> )
optional home button auto-hide ( feature of GMD )
customizable upto animations
something i have not seen sense my fascinate on aokp. adjustable auto-brightness variables
a mhl interface where you can send the output of a selected app to mhl, but then use the phone for other things.. so in car. send navigation to dvd player screen. and when i take a call the navigation continues on the second screen.
when at home. you could mhl a movie to your tv, while using your phone for other things. is this possible?
Icon packs being able to be applied to stock launcher with out having to install a 3rd party app/launcher would be great
A built in "Mass Memory Mode" for sdcard would be handy.
Recent Apps custom Background and Alpha menu option.
Ability to change Wifi/signal Icon colors.
Could you implement iPhone like notifications for full screen apps? Or a way to pull down the status bar in full screen apps (like most Touchwiz phones)?
I wish there was a way to install wanted features through aroma installer, like brightness slider is something I don't use so I wouldn't choose to install the code or dark or light ui switch, some might choose to install dark, I would install the light holo switch
A shortcut in power menu to a dashboard where i can find all my rom controls - go to settings and voila! [don't be lazy ]

It would be great to have some common kernel features for all builds. Like governors, i/o schedulers, tcp congestion control algorithms, zram, ksm, specific filesystems support. Controlling them should be integrated into performance settings, with advanced fine tuning options as well.
Other board-specific features (DT2W, S2W, fast charge, Wi-Fi power mode toggle, vibration intensity, gamma control, adaptive backlight, in-kernel auto brightness, BLN, etc.) should also have standard sysfs paths, this way the available features can be controlled in performance settings (or other places in the settings app) and those not included will simply be hidden. - kernel so no

messaging app with alot of features - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46478642&postcount=90 - - 3rd party apps exist so no and if you need it badly find us a AOSP one
request a setting I had on PacMan. When you press Vol up or down the volume bar comes up on screen, but on the right side of it there is an expandable settings button. When you click it, it shows all individual volume types, and their corresponding current levels. That way it's super easy to change individual volumes. Alarm, notification, music, ring tones are all individual volume settings - on the list
I suppose this won't even make a list but, if possible, and if they're going to create some new music player, could I drop in a request for Opus support? It's an "official" audio standard now, and I suspect that support will grow over time - it's freakin' awesome for low bitrate audio and the only players that seem to support it yet are GoneMAD (which I can't tolerate) and Neutron (which to me is hideous).
Would love to see a bare metal audio player that has the basics: good format support, cover art support (embedded as well as included in folders), and that's about it. I think support for Opus was in the works for Apollo, could still be at this time I have no idea but I wouldn't mind having it in something besides the aforementioned players.
If you're gonna do a full blown open source OS, might as well have a media player that covers the open source audio format(s) fully as well or as much as possible. - XpLoDWilD is looking into it
Net speed indicator like in the latest Carbon - added to gerrit here & here
I am in no way related to OmniROM. Just created a thread to maintain a list.
Thanks
Munchy
Something like Floating window (not the multi window)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40906936&postcount=2
Needs to have everything it can (I hope) but things that are kinda only in a few roms that you don't see a lot, for example, i'd like to see full animation control as well as scrolling animations, Net speed indicator like in the latest Carbon, and the ability to have carrier shown in statusbar with the ability to have a custom carrier like in Mokee OS?
I'd like to see full control of the launcher, or perhaps even integrated launchers that are changeable. The AOSP launcher is just fine, but I like the complete control I get with Nova.

ability to move status bar to bottom of phone screen, will be helpful as screen size increases and status bar at top can be a pain sometimes when looking for notifications.
white UI
Something ive always wanted from android, but never found the right solution, Is a transparent keyboard.
Honestly one thing people haven't really mentioned is a framework like Xposed to be baked directly into the rom. Talk about customization and such.

Regarding DT2W
This is actually very dependent on the device and needs kernel support. I have added this together with S2W for the Oppo find5. For other devices this needs more investigation if it is possible to implement
Sent from my Find 5 using xda app-developers app
Here's a couple:
Custom statusbar colors to match app...make it intelligent enough to figure out current app values and just emulate them - extend beyond current availablilty and allow custom colors on a per-icon/clock basis.
MIUI-style theme engine, where you can fine tune elements on a per-app basis, mix-n-match, etc. Would be great if it supported current MIUI/CM themes, but with this expanded functionality. And with MIUI, you can theme anything you know the package name of and can get the resources from.
Air gestures/wave2wake?
With PIE - the ability to adjust the width of the trigger area, so if, say, it's at the bottom of the screen, it's only triggered by the middle of the screen, versus taking up the entire bottom.
Native CIFS and USB OTG.
ADB over wifi?
Facebook contact integration, HD contact pictures.
Mind you, I'm just rattling off a wishlist. Sounds very exciting so far. Can't wait to see the new phasebeam.
Edit: Also thought yesterday...wouldn't it be cool to get some kind of live wallpaper that did almost like a zoe (HTC One) or animated .gif as a live wallpaper? Not a full persistent video...but more of like those pictures in harry potter.
Adb over WiFi is on gerrit
USB otg is another very device specific feature. For devices that supports is on the HW side no problem. For the others USB host support can be added if possible to the kernel

I'm aware that some of these are kernel/device specific. But it would be kinda cool to have them baked in off the bat when possible, versus having to hunt down and install a secondary kernel that may or may not work 100% with the ROM. I always prefer to use the official kernel when I can.
It would be great to have some common kernel features for all builds. Like governors, i/o schedulers, tcp congestion control algorithms, zram, ksm, specific filesystems support. Controlling them should be integrated into performance settings, with advanced fine tuning options as well.
Other board-specific features (DT2W, S2W, fast charge, Wi-Fi power mode toggle, vibration intensity, gamma control, adaptive backlight, in-kernel auto brightness, BLN, etc.) should also have standard sysfs paths, this way the available features can be controlled in performance settings (or other places in the settings app) and those not included will simply be hidden.
Here are my feature requests:
- Pure AOSP look
- Improvements of performance & battery efficiency (maybe omni rom should build their own kernel to make this actually happen)
- Open source drivers for phones with only useless proprietary ones
I would actually prefer performance and battery life than battery consuming software features namely halo
My requests so far (don't know if already in):
- Quiet hours
- Custom autobrightness
- LED color Settings
- retain AOSP (kernel) compatibility (Nexus devices)
Btw. on one of the screenshots I saw of Omni where the MultiWindow feature was shown it was quite hard to see where one app starts and another ends, maybe it would be beneficial to add a small separation line?

My thoughts exactly. Maybe even give it it's own performance app that is an AIO stop for overclocking/undervolting/governor/scheduler/etc. tuning. Instead of having a mildly limited "performance" area in settings or having to do things via a 3rd party app that has support for whichever kernel's features we want to use...one unified kernel/tuning app for any device. It already sounds like the ROM is going to be very performance-oriented...this could even potentially be like a centerpiece for all the tuning features. :good:

Undervolting is present in the performance control app already, flashed another kernel to test and logs show it's available, but the app crashes somewhere else. Will have to investigate that as soon as I resync repos with GitHub ones (I only have Gerrit repos synced now. ).

[App]PowerToggles is now open source!

Hello guys. I created Power Toggles a few years ago, and have been slowing adding features to it.
But I have not been getting time to keep update the app for some time. I have made the project available on github
https://github.com/sunnygoyal/PowerToggles
Little description of the app:
An advanced power control widget. FREE and No ads
Contains 40+ toggles including
Wifi
Mobile Data (3G/4G)
Bluetooth (toggle, discovery and tether),
Flashlight
Custom application shortcut
Custom system shortcuts
And many more...
Many customization options like changing color theme and icons for individual toggles.
For creating a Tasker toggle, refer http://powertoggles.com/tasker/
For concerns regarding SuperUser permission: http://m.powertoggles.com/help.php?e=26 , https://plus.google.com/103583939320326217147/posts/T9xnMJEnzf1
FAQ: http://powertoggles.com/help/
Backup and share widget settings from the widget configure screen (Menu > Import / Export) as well as various themes for multi-icon toggles and battery toggle.
Thanks. Appreciate it.
Thanks for all your hard work in past years. Hopefully development will continue.
use it for years,its the best in its section and runs perfect for me,big thx for this.i hope all devs makes it great too and not crapapps since its open.
Use it for years, too, guess tried ALL similar apps, available on the market - but this one is the best!!!
Too bad I'm not a developer to fix few small issues and make it even better
Developers! Don't pass by!! Stop and pay attention. It's a real gem!!!
Thanks for your work, Sunny, and sorry you give it up...
Awesome Tool!
Reboot to Recovery is not working on my Device, even though its rooted. ROM manager "reboot to recovery" works.
Would appreciate help with this problem.
Really hoping this keeps getting updated, have been using Power Toggles for years and it seems some functions aren't working properly in Android M and N:
(1) Screen lock toggle locks phone but prevents fingerprint unlock, must use PIN instead - https://github.com/sunnygoyal/PowerToggles/issues/6
(2) Quick settings broadcast tiles no longer works in Android N - https://github.com/sunnygoyal/PowerToggles/issues/4
Hi everybody,
it is really a petty that there is no amigious developer, who likes to continue the work on power toogles.
Is there anybody out there to make power toggle ready for android n? Please I really do not wanna life without this app.
Hope dies last. Best Regards Roland
Sorry not to be a developer to keep your work...
I use power toggles in my devices and all my family ones as well. And from kit kat to nougat!
Good luck to you, and hope someone fosters it!
Now having tasted what it's like to have various app supporting quick setting tiles, I really wish this app was still under development. It would be fascinating to be "officially" able to edit and add whatever toggles I want to the quick settings through Power Toggles. If only Power Toggles is still alive!
I wish I would have learned the programming to enable the further development of this software.
Power Toggles is still in my top 5 app list. Titanium Backup, USB Audio Player PRO, Sound About, and Magisk round it out.
Seriously, I'm dumbfounded that someone or a company hasn't picked this up.
Would love to have a night mode toggle if this ever gets updated again.
It's a pity nobody continues to develop this application. I use it since a few years and it's very convenient but I lost functionalities every time I upgrade Androïd.
This app has vanished from Playstore, why?
Might not be compatible with your version of Android. It didn't show up for me after I installed Oreo. I just downloaded it from APK Mirror.
No, I downloaded it before, with the same phone-same firmware-same account.. it just vanished.
But I got it anyway from ApkMirrror :good:
P.s
I tried spoofing with Fdroid's Yalp Store, it is definitely vanished. So sad.
I've red Google removes applications which have no updates since a few years.
it could have been removed due to policy enforced by Google ( using device admin access ) .
BTW, I've been thinking about supporting this with value adds ( I have an initial version called micro toggles with few added features ) - Of course, it will be open source.
May be based on interest I will consider releasing it.
I've been using Power Toggles for years and it's still better than Nougat and any other app I've tried, I'm sorry to see it go, but I do know Java and will be looking into contributing to the open source for bug fixes, cleanup, and possibly improved/new features. Don't get overly-ambitious! Keep it simple and effective, that's my motto.

Not sure, if I understood your questions ... but yes, you can add the network mode activity, like any other activity, to this tile.
BUT the network mode is a tricky one ... the network mode activity uses some heavy workarounds and standard Android, manufacturers and even roms (looking at you cm/lineage) mess around with this feature .... sometimes adding a 3 seconds wait activity between the network mode activity and another activity will solve issues, sometimes it does not ... If it does not work for you, send me a message with details (device, rom, root methode, quicktile activities and a log file) and I will have a look ... but don´t expect a fix.... some things are not fixable

you are welcome. thanks for the feedback!
Hi all,
QuickTile has more than 50 different activities, some easy to understand (like the standard device settings activities), some more unique, complex and powerful. A lot of users ask me which activities to use and how to handle complex setups, so I decided to introduce some use cases. A lot of these activities are unique (no other app will provide something similar), so I will focus on these activities. In each post I will introduce 2-4 features/ activities ... so let´s start with:
# Text-to-Speech:
QuickTile has a powerful Text-to-Speech engine. Currently 3 different activities are supported:
- Text-to-Speech: Let QuickTile Speak any text you want ... you can combine this with any other activity to give you some audio feedback, for example combine the text "WiFi ON" with the WiFi ON activity ... or you can use it for fun and let your device say "good morning ascsa" or something completely different.
- Speak time: Tells you the time
- Say Date: Tells you the date
# External Plugin:
This unique feature let you use standard automation plugins with QuickTile. What does that mean: You can use a wide range of automation plugins (the same you could use with e.g. Tasker) to fire automation task activities ... for example you could fire "Secure Settings Plugin" activities with QuickTile or use "Pushbullet" to send notifications to other devices or you can fire "Greenify" tasks. All you have to do is install the Plugin App and choose your activity via the "External Plugin" Group.
# HttpGet and HttpPost
You can use QuickTile to send HttpGet and HttpPost request ... Very cool and powerful feature, you can do all kinds of cool stuff with this...
Some users control their Smarthomes via QuickTile ... You can for example switch on your smart Hue lights with just a Tile in your quick settings. Pretty cool isn´t it?
QuickTile has a lot of other cool and unique features and if you enjoy this post, just let me know and I will present some other cool features in similar posts. ...
QuickTile unique and cool features Part 2:
Received a lot of positive feedback for the previous "QuickTile cool features" postet, so let´s have a look at some other cool activities and features in QuickTile:
# Music Player (Start/Launch)
You can fire up your music player and start playing music (play/pause parameter recommended)....
Yep, doesn´t sound much, BUT you can combine this activity with other activities and features and create your own customized "play music profile" ... e.g. add the "Set Music vol" activity and bring your media volume to 100 % and also add the "Ringer" activity (both -> Device settings) with the "Do NOT Disturb" parameter to enjoy your music ....AND you can add an additional cycle to stop the music, bring back your music volume to e.g. 34 % and bring your Ringer mode back to normal ...cool :good:
Cycle 1:
- Music Player : Play
- Set Music Volume: 100
- Ringer: Do not Disturb
Cycle 2:
- Music Player : Stop
- Set Music Volume: 34
- Ringer: Normal
Remember to choose a Pause icon (II) for cycle 1 and a Play icon (>) for cycle 2 and matching labels, because QuickTile will always show you the icon + label for the next cycle ... You can also add more activities like bluetooth on/off or Navigation to this Tile
#Navigation (Start/Launch)
Start a Navigation ... Just enter your desired address as parameter and you are good to go ... or keep the address empty to just open your navigation app
You can also combine this activity with other activities start a custom car mode (e.g. WiFi off, Bluetooth on, Music Player Play etc.)
or you can try out the Android Car Mode (depends on your rom / device)
#Car Mode (Start/Launch)
Start the android car mode ... I would recommend to install Android Auto and you should be good to go
Should be enough for part 2 of this "QuickTile cool features and activities" post ....
Feedback always welcome

Loving this app, especially the Root Features. The 'Mode' Tiles are awesome. I haven't even had the chance to play with all of them.

Glad to hear it man, I am about to start redesigning the UI and developing it beyond just a quick settings application
Wow! Nice app!
Fantastic. Thanks for releasing it!
Hi, great app!
I'm having trouble adding one tile to the menu. I activated the "Inmersive Mode" tile. But when I try to drag and drop to the active tiles, it just disappears after passing over the division line.
(Mi device is a Moto Z)
Thanks in advance for your help.
Direct Call
Hi there, nice work,

What is the LeeDroid Beast-mode Rom ?
Edit:
I'm guessing its a Rom specifically for the HTC 10. I'll have to check it out

It's an Android bug, tracker for it is here
I've never really checked how widespread the issue is, I have the same issue with users of my app, does it still persist in HTC's implementation or Samsung's I wonder

It's across the board in Android N, quite irritating.
You have 3 containers in edit view, the first is the active tiles container, 2nd is system tiles and 3rd is custom injected tiles.
The work around is, drag everything from the system tiles container to the active container, add what you want from the custom container and clean up.. a bit of a pain if you have a lot of system tiles, but it does the trick.

The biggest pain is that the issue is marked as "Small" so it's probably not going to be fixed for a while

Let's make some noise about it, Google introduced the TileService API & overlooked that one rather large issue

I suppose it's only going to become more of a problem the more apps add tiles...
