The OmniROM now supports syncing contacts and through the open source protocol CardDAV

 OmniROMROM-assessed a respectable open source, the Omni is forced to constantly find new ways to serve users who love the FOSS (Free Open Source Software) software. Latest addition to the arsenal of features is sync contacts via CardDAV for those who want to avoid Google. 

The CardDAV protocol is therefore an open source sync contacts, which you can build on our own personal server. With the addition of the Omni application "Persons" of Android, we are the contacts to sync in our Android device, without sharing it with Google, to Apple, Yahoo and the other companies. This is not only good for our privacy and for our company, as we can synchronize our portfolio on our mobile devices, knowing that it is safe in the office. 

The operation will be added to the application "Persons" of the next OmniROM upgrades while you use other ROM does not have to be jealous because there apps on Play Store that can do this job.

Can OIroot is one of the most good ways to do the LG root our devices, but many people are not familiar with the terminal or command prompt. So Stump Root created a new method in the application form, which will do a root touch with the LG G3 us. 

The Stump Root resembles the Towelroot and its use is extremely simple. On install, press the button "Grind", do restart and install the SuperSU the Play Store. After finish we can reopen the application to confirm that everything has gone well and uninstall.

#MIUI 6 Arrived with New Features, Improved GUI and Greater Security

xiaomi-miui-6-2

The ROM that taught us how beautiful Android, returns with the sixth edition of to show us once again how to create a graphical interface that is both easy and beautiful. Borrowing bits of iOS 7 and Material design you see in Android L, the MIUI 6 shows more attractive than ever, making the owners of devices Xiaomi feel very lucky.

The moto of MIUI for this year is "Simple, intuitive, beautiful" and perfectly represents the sixth version. The simple logic of the iOS launcher, without drawer applications and guidelines within the Google applications, MIUI combines the best of both worlds. On the subject of beauty this year we crazy animation! No matter which button to press and do something weird, like for example the switch Airplane mode which boosts the icon / plane! Applications are now even clearer with their icons have become flat and the influence of material desing is more than evident. Finally a very big role play more colors, with which to impress that each application has its own so it is easier to find it, but having all the applications an affinity between them thanks to the smokey effect exists and previous versions of the ROM.

In terms of features this year we have much improved dialer which has identification numbers, and enables us to categorize numbers of banks, advertising agencies and other pesky whom we later add a blocklist. Sense also causes the function which presents the options of answering machines on display, so the next time you call your service provider, we do not need to hear the whole message but pressing the right number for our service. We also have new gestures (gestures) in the homescreen, while the notifications look now with Hover the Paranoid Android ROM.

Much is done for this year and the safety devices of Xiaomi, competitors may want to halt the rise, so MIUI 6 has improved especially in this area with the major integrated virus scanner and operation of finding "odd" rights in applications.

Which devices but will first taste the MIUI 6; Already has started beta testing which will last until October. If you have a device of Mi3 Mi4 or be able to access and participate here you are stating and the holders of Mi2 / 2S / 2A, Redmi and Redmi Note will enter and they soon trial. The first stable packages will see early next year so until then ... patience!

The Script Makes the Update of Custom ROM

Custom ROM

Upgrading the ROM is always a happy event, but when we are forced to download the whole is not the best. Why does not follow the practice of all OmniROM wherein Delta update available are small in size and contain only those changes resulting?

Those dealing with the ROM developing you can do the same with DeltaJen, a script which compares with the previous and the next version produces a small * .zip file that contains only the changes! Has an in language python, known in the circles of Linux, which works but on all operating systems. To use the terminal needs but if you create your own ROM, it should possess well.

We must therefore install the Python (tested in 2.7 and 3.2+ versions) as well as some more tools that you can find here. When you get all in place the command to create the Delta update is as follows:

python DeltaJen.py -b <ROMv1.zip> -i <ROMv2.zip> -o <output.zip>

Where "ROMv1.zip" put the path of the previous version of our ROM where "ROMv2.zip" put our last issue and if we let the "output.zip" as it is just us create a file called "output" .

This file can now put it on our device and install it through recovery, attention, however, because the device will be running a version of "ROMv1" which we used as a base to create the "ROMv2".

It is increasingly becoming a mandate to save the ROM developer from hosting large files in the cloud account, while users will be able to less space to keep many of the ROM version using, if needed in the future. You can find more information in the thread tool at XDA.

CyanogenMod App For those who want their applications but not the ROM

CyanogenMod App

One of the big differences CyanogenMod compared with all other ROM on Android is the fact that the developer not only stood to improve the system but proceeded to create a complete operating system and producing their own applications. These applications are very good quality and now available to anyone who needs them via CM apps. 

Through the CM apps can we download all the applications CyanogenMod separately and install them on any device, plus point is no need to root the device. These include: 

    CyanogenMod
  • The Apollo 
  • The DSP manager 
  • The Clock widget 
  • The File manager 
  • The Sound recorder 
  • The Torch 
  • The Trebuchet launcher 
  • The Next Camera 
  • The wallpaper. 

To CM apps will find it for free on Play Store but note that some applications do not work on all devices, with most complaints coming to Next Camera.

The Omni ROM prepares and other voice commands inspired by the 'OK Google'!

Omni ROM
With the advent of Google Now, Google introduced us the voice functions, a new way of handling our device which is very convenient in some cases. Everything starts and ends with the phrase "OK Google" something the OmniROM wants to expand, giving us even more possibilities. 

The programmers then started a new project with which we can define our own phrases to do everyday tasks such as launching applications. You can say for example "OK Camera" to open the camera application and use whatever words we want for any application. Unfortunately, the operation will be supported only in English, but we can define English words we use in our daily lives. For example usually say "camera" in Greek and not "camera", while to open the message might say "SMS" which we also use it extensively. 

The new feature will only work with AOSP launcher and we can activate pigainotas "Settings> Hotwords". Regarding energy consumption will not cause us a problem as activated after unlock the screen, is not that always-on. As for when it will be available, please update the current (28/05/14) nightlies and enjoy it.

The Omni is the first custom ROM that is upgraded to Android 4.4.3 KitKat

Those who have chosen OmniROM for their device (including myself) enjoy a clean version of Android code of AOSP, which is parallel loaded with a bunch of features that you can not find the official firmware of Google. Bet Yet a ROM can be upgraded directly to the latest version of Android. 

The Omni So pleasantly surprised because today announced that the upgrade to Android 4.4.3 has already begun, and that during the day will appear on the server of the first build. There are of course some great upgrade that will make it difficult for developers but is a sample for the way they think and their ideology. If you still have not received the update from Google, you should probably start thinking about moving to Omni, which you can download from the official page.
