Install build.prop editor from Play and change LCD Density param to 240 or 256.

240 is default right? I always set mine to 200 or 190.
Looks a lot slicker in my honest opinion.

I know this method, I think there was an option in the rom, because is very unusable with default dpi.
But, is not possible to set 240 to default ?
Sorry, do not want to sound cocky, I just think if you try this rom and it shows like this, maybe you leave it immediately, only to see this resolution.
PS for who want to keep Google out from our life: there is
Performance Control (System configuration) - https://f-droid.org/app/com.brewcrewfoo.performance
for manage build.prop and many other stuff. ?
I'm on this rom from few days... all right so far... no reboot, no strange behaviour, battery drain seems ok.

Good morning!!
When i first started using LS i had no reboots. But after a few updates and restores they started happening once in a while.
I'm on AICP now. Had it running on stock kernel with no reboots for 3 days. Now installed IceCode and until now no problems. (1,5 days)
I'll keep you posted if anything happens.

It make sense because SlimKAT is not using CyanogenMOD kernel. It is Slim's msm8960 kernel. I am buiding new version. I synced mms application with CM's one because I like send delay option, it's useful in some situations... I will test if it works and if so, I will upload it on AFH, if not... building it again This rom is really amazing and sexy like a slim
EDIT: building again...
have someone trouble with bluetooth ?
I try to use my bluetooth earphone but don't work.
I will test this ROM soon, I like slim very much.
Thanks to the OP !

Hi,
I wanted to use some extra features like fast charge, thus flashed bubba kernel, latest version that is for 4.4 based ROMs. I thought a kernel for AOSP based ROMs is the right choice. After reboot I cannot turn on WiFi.
Did I choose the wrong kernel?

Bubba was not updated for a loong time by rmbq. He moved to another device. Therefore the last builds are not containing latest wifi related commits and are not compatible with any of the latest built ROMs. If you want to use Bubba, look into the IceCode kernel thread, somewhere on the last pages, AKToronto has compiled latest Bubba including wifi commits. It's called Bubba Zombie Edition. You can use that one, it works (this is what I use also). Or you can use latest IceCode from the same thread, but it does not have dt2w/s2w
Sent from nowhere over the air...
only to confirm a rock ROM... also with latest update seems always all right!
Great work mikronac... great work...

Hi. Just installed this and I like it. A few others have been having issues with chrome and location services causing soft reboots and really bad stability. This ROM does not have that problem. I tried first with the full PA gapps and had issues with Google search and the Google calendar FC. Wiped and clean installed and used the Banks gapps. All is good now.
Gonna go install the Elemental X kennel now.
Thanks for the ROM.

HI @jakdillard . First off thanks for the great AOSP ROM. Glad to see more entries. I have a question not about the ROM because its excellent for me but ever since the AOSP ROMs started coming out, some of us have noted a recurring problem with many of them. @scrosler maintains a AOSP ROM which is afflicted. @ctfrommn does too for some of us. The main problem we have is that when we load these ROMs on our Nexus 7 wifi editions and visit pages which request access to locations like www.google.com, www.yahoo.com or others, the chrome browser crashes and for me it causes a soft reboot. If we just stick to the aosp ROM after some bit of time the AOSP browser also gets very unstable and will start crashing no matter how much cleaning, clearing, etc we do. @scrosler had documented some of this and we've collaborated a bit trying to figure out why this happens. On rasbean, carbon, your ROM, and a few others it does not happen.
I am hoping perhaps you could share some knowledge and let us know any commits, if you saw this behavior before you put the ROM up and did something to fix it. Any info at all would be very helpful. I'd love to be able to see this fixed and get the other ROMs working.
Thanks for the contribution again.

Very well put. I build rom's from aosp for myself. I am, of course, running into the same issues. Clearly there is something being added by Google that doesn't exist in aosp to make Google location services work. Obviously this rom has it. With the support of the aosp apps being slowly phased out in favor of Google apps, we are going to need a patch in order to be able to make a fully functional rom. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

I have to look over those other roms sources to see what they are missing more the likely they don't have the location services pointing to the right adapter or still using the old way of making device trees causing make to not put the overlays together correctly.
Nice ROM Jak!
Syncing your Repo now!

Why Omni?
Omni is what custom ROMs used to be about – innovation, new features, transparency, community, and freedom. Our goal is to experiment with Android development because we enjoy it. Omni isn’t better, just different. It’s another option for the billion Android users out there. Android (vs. iOS and every other mobile OS) has thrived on options as well as the gigantic, talented development community that has emerged to build those options. That’s the beauty of Android – that you can pick and choose from a smorgasbord of devices with varying features and functionality.
Omni is a chance to get involved, no matter who you are. Developers, whether you’ve been developing apps for a week, or ROM features for 3 years, you’re welcome. Users, we know you want to help out, and now you can – Omni actively encourages bug reports and feature requests, which can be added to our publicly accessible roadmap. What’s the point in giving you a ROM, and forcing you to not tell us about any bugs you find?
We also recognise how people use Custom ROMs – we’re all custom ROM users and developers ourselves – the argument that “nightlies are not for end users” is over-used, and no longer valid. We’ve found that the vast majority of users want to get nightly updates to their ROM. For that reason, nightlies aren’t a playground – nightlies are for new features that are finished. You should be able to expect the same stability and reliability from a nightly as you would from a “release” ROM, and can report any bugs that prevent this from happening.
We know not everyone wants to update their ROM daily, and you are free to update as frequently or infrequently as you like. Omni is about flexibility and giving users what they expect – and we are excited to see where the community goes with it.

I am looking into the possibility that something in one of the config files is looking for CDMA. However all the ville specific stuff is from CM but edited to use omni sources for the build instead of CM and the msm8960 and s4-common repos that I forked are for all of the HTC S4 based devices regardless of radio support and could have just as easily been forked from CM but required to much editing of the various omni dependencies so I used his stuff.

- Lock screen delay is more than on the CM roms?

also after you flash rom and gapps, select power off in twrp instead of just a reboot. otherwise itll bootloop. other than that though it seems to be running fast and solid so far! give it a shot, see what ya think.

also after you flash rom and gapps, select power off in twrp instead of just a reboot. otherwise itll bootloop. other than that though it seems to be running fast and solid so far! give it a shot, see what ya think.

I've been on this rom all day and it's been solid for me so far, no reboots or anything.
unfortunately, this upgrade to 4.4 wont work like that. pretty much every rom out there seems to be coming from AOSP scratch and rebuilding. completely new code.
however vanir has their 4.4 repos up and ready to go. also cm updated their repos to cm-11.0 today. I got a successful build of vanir 4.4 but gapps is force crashing on startup, so im trying to get that fixed before i upload it.
also 4.4 vanir is pretty close to stock right now, but the vanir team works extremely hard and updates every day so we'll get our customizations in due time.
on a side note... are you likin this build of vanir 4.3.1?

keep up the good work.
Edit: After a days use I give it a thumbs up. brotherross on 4.3.1 can you have option to change clear recent apps on lower left because on phones that are big its hard to reach their if your lefty?
Thanks keep it up
After a couple of try on the installation i manage to make this work (was getting bootloop even after the process but after third time installing it worked, i dont know why)
First thing, this ROM is Crazy fast! Been a while since i got to use something gonig this fast. I like the customization it's packed with too. As i just flashed this i can't really comment on battery life or even reboot but i'll stay you tune on this.
Question. Are custom kernel like Jrior or Azn one working on this? Didn't try it right now but i'll probably do so when i arrive home. And is Azn KingBeatz gonna work on this too? Anyway, i'll try when i arrive home and give feedback if nobody tried this.
Another question more concerning the rom customization. Is their a ways to change the longpress back button setting? I like putting Kill App their but i dont see how i can do that on this rom. And is there a reason why Vanir Inverted is in theme? I know a bunch of rom have a tile that can be switch on/off for Dark UI but is their something different havingit in the Theme section?
Anyway, congrats on that build, feels awesome in hand!
did you power off instead of reboot after you flashed your gapps package? that seems to be the best work around for the kernel bootloop kink.
I haven't personally tried either of those custom kernels on this ROM, but I do think they'd be worth a shot to try. don't know if kingbeatz will work either.
hardware back to kill is in developer options. as far as the dark theme goes, its just how the vanir team decided to include it in their project. it works just like the dark option from other ROMs.
and thanks man

Ya i did the power off thing, didn't work first time, second i tried reboot and didn't work either and lastly i retried with power off and it did work.
Now, I flashed Jrior Kernel + KingBeatz, went into bootloop "sight". I powered it off because i was going for supper and now it won't open back... Might have drained battery and now it's stuck. I'll charge it for a while try reinstalling all without Kingbeatz / Kernel independantly and see what comes out.
Thanks for the fast answer!

Try this rom+ torched + V4A Viper 4 Android audio. Make sure its 4.x apk. Better then what your using. u have to enable advnced user mode on V4A though easy.
I was using Viper4A before, but KingBeatz gave me better result "on 4.3.1" essentially because it was release before for 4.1.2 and after that nada. Viper4A was the one i used after that. Gotta try another time.
But how did you manage to flash Torch? Each time i tried it bootloop
And i had a question, if i want to reboot my phone normaly, do i have to go through the same pattern as Power off and then turn it back on or this was only for the rom installation?

I had a problem installing an app (Amazon) from the app store so I changed the DPI from the default of 250 to 240. After going to step 2, I got boot loops. I cleared the cache and was able to get back in the rom.

Welcome to VanirAOSP. Our mission is to deliver a clean optimized version of Android to as many devices as possible. This is not a kang rom. You will find versions of the features you love that we've rewritten and improved on plus a few we wrote ourselves. we've tried to acheive a more organized and cohesive setup to improve the user experience while correcting any performance regressions and improving functionality.
If you're the kind of person that needs options to change the font and color on every letter and expect the ROM to end up looking like kid's cereal box then GTFO. You will not find customizations that are done just because someone figured out how to do them. Everything in here has a purpose and is held to a high standard of coding.
General features:
stock mode - ability revert to stock AOSP code with the exception of a few custom features we chose to keep active
enhanced performance.. longer uptime with less slowdown
custom written CRON and init.d.
minor UI and graphics improvements
custom navbar, navring, and hardware key features
active notifications (improved active display + lockscreen notifications)
usability improvements like power reboot menu and sound
animation control
Improved Vanir keyboard
CM's profiles & quicksettings
additional quicksetting tiles
immersive desktop <- fully configurable immersive mode
low profile mode
statusbar mods
clock & battery mods
lockscreen blur and other mods
soon to come -> quick cam and flash notifications
busybox, embedded root, init.d, cron etc
many improvements and new features unique to vanir
more to come when i feel like updating the op
issues:
- stop flashing the moto X binaries. they do not improve anything for you and aren't even for your device.
- open source camera and launcher3 do not have the same featuers as the google versions. use the latest
banks standard gapps if you'd like these. His gapps are super legit and always up to date.

I flashed ROM yesterday and WiFi was broken and today I flashed only kernel (torched 4.8) and WiFi is working
I have to say, this ROM is very impressive! Great UI tweaks, very fast, ART works very well. The only bug I've noticed is my cell signal goes out completely for a few seconds every once in a while. Otherwise, very awesome indeed!

The latest nightly is pretty stable, been having no issues whatsoever, except the need to flash a new radio every few days or so, but that could just be due to my own location.

And also WiFi doesn't work on stock kernel. Only working with torched 4.8. I guess it's related to the latest changes with the WiFi. When I first flashed the ROM it didn't work so I flashed torched to fix it but I've had a lot of random reboots since 3-4 days so I just got back on stock kernel only to remember WiFi is broken.
Edit : still getting random reboot also on stock kernel. I'll try and grab a last_kmsg next time it happens.

Well that's odd, I don't get reboots at all. Maybe that's because of an app incorrectly allocating memory?

I installed the 0902 nightly via vanir updater and WiFi now works very well I still get random reboots though, here's the last_kmsg I grabbed while on 0819 nightly, i'll try to grab another one while on the latest as well.
Newest nightly refused to boot for me.. Just endlessly sat on the Vanir splash screen.
Vanir 4.4.4 build required
Hi,
I see that the last vanir build for evita for 4.4.4 was this vanir_evita_4.4.4.112414
But the official repo for vanir only hosts 5.0 builds. If somebody has it downloaded can you please send it to me.
Any help is much appreciated.
TIA!
I love AOSP ROMs but the latest nightlies that I've installed have crashed right after the boot. Please, look into that.
Thanks.

[ROM] KarbonKat v1.2-3 (5/1/15) [Carbon/CM11][4.4.4-r2]
This ROM was put together after the maintainers of CarbonDev moved on from this phone as it was no longer building successfully with the standard build process for CarbonROMs. The amazing work they'd done had made everyone want this ROM working on this phone as it was fast, stable and had the latest features from AOSP code. They did an amazing job so I used the base code, added the pure CyanogenMod device trees and started posting this ROM from then on. Unfortunately my build server was behind a firewall so it couldnt' be part of the Carbon build system hence why this ROM was born. So the kudos for this ROM has to go to the original developers at Carbon, CyanogenMod and of course AOKP plus a little snippet from PAC-Man to get the latest build stable and working!
The original ROM is on this thread: CarbonRom JB
It uses HBoot 2.18.0000, has SimplePIE, OmniSwitch, CarbonFibres, PowerSaver mode, Performance tweaks, built-in root, themer support, Daydream, Apollo music player and it's fast!
Without further ado here's the ROM plus source location, Gapps to use and firmware to use:
KarbonKat v1.1-5 10/09/2014
KarbonKat v1.1-6 19/09/2014
KarbonKat v1.1-7 22/09/2014
KarbonKat v1.1-8 29/09/2014
KarbonKat v1.1-9 08/10/2014
KarbonKat v1.1-11 22/10/2014
KarbonKat v1.1-12 28/10/2014
KarbonKat v1.2-0 02/12/2014
KarbonKat v1.2-2 18/12/2014
KarbonKat v1.2-3 5/1/2015 latest stable 4.4.4 version!
BaNKs Gapps for 4.4.3: Goo.im folder
PA Gapps for 4.4.2 to 4.4.4: Paranoid Android Gapps

Firmware is the BIOS for the phone essentially.
I just thought I'd let you know latest version of the ROM has been running smooth for 2-3 days now. I only had one reboot and I forgot to catch the last_kmsg. But otherwise it's been great
Subjectively this is the fastest ROM I've ever run on this device, no reboots thus far. Only bug is bluetooth audio stuttering/speeding up or slowing down occasionally but that is a bug in all AOSP roms at this point. Thanks!

I just have a reboot recently, how can I get the last_kmsg? maybe it can help to the dev.

Right after your phone rebooted you open an app called terminal emulator (that's the one I use) and type the following lines
su
cat /process/last_kmsg > /mnt/sdcard/last_kmsg
Then you're gonna have a file called last_kmsg on the sdcard
What Kernel do you recommend to use?
sometimes I can check my WiFi connections cuz never open the wifi options, I have to reboot my device to connect and see the options
Everything mess up since I installed that firmware, omg.

As a reference alternative you could always try the latest torched for 4.4 as that contains fixes for wifi problems as well in 4.4.4-r2.

Yes, I did, but I dont know what happened that wifi setting doesnt work, it works sometimes and later I have to reboot my device more than 3 times.
i always have to reenter the password for my wifi whenever my battery dies completely. not really a big issue to me but i haven't noticed that on any other roms before. incredibly stable otherwise.

Hi,
I think it's an ongoing bit that's being developed in the qcom code as there have been quite a few changes there recently. Have you tried resetting screen lock as a way to work around it? Is pocket mode enabled?
