Devices currently supported and receiving Omni ROM 4.4 nightlies

In my opinion Omni ROM is the new kid on the block, but the kid to pay close attention to. With CyanogenMod doing their thing and being the goto ROM for us AOSP ROM fans over the years or being the base for a lot of the other custom AOSP ROMs, I think there’s no better time than now for a bunch of kick ass well know developers to start dropping 4.4 nightlies for Omni ROM and give the commercialized CyanogenMod a run for their money.

Down below is a full list of devices that are supported for Omni ROM’s 4.4 KitKat nightlies.

- find5 (Oppo Find 5)

- n7000 (Samsung Galaxy Note)
- n7100 (Samsung Galaxy Note 2)
- t0lte (Samsung Galaxy Note 2 LTE)

- tilapia (Nexus 7 3G 2012)

For those of you that may be wondering what Omni ROM is and what their philosophy is, take a quick peak at our recently written article about their project and goals. OmniROM aims at keeping the end user at the center, because they are the ones using the ROM. All contributions made to Omni ROM will be licensed under GPL.

These guys are the real deal folks and they’re going to deliver in a major way. You have my word on that!

A quick note from the Omni Team themselves –

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all custom ROM users and developers ourselves – the argument that “nightlies are not for end users” is over-used, and no longer valid.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.
