Omnicore allows AndroidAPS to be used with the original Omnipod ('Eros' pods and not currently Omnipod Dash). The Omnicore app runs on an Android device, alongside a special version of AndroidAPS. The only hardware required is a RileyLink. (No Raspberry Pi is needed... Omnicore is not to be confused with Omnipy which came first).
Currently (since 6 July 2019, and still the position at 22 October 2019) Omnicore is in alpha testing. Please note that it contains various bugs (including issues with reliably recording temporary basal rates in aaps; UI issues; plus connectivity issues). It cannot therefore be considered ‘released’ although it has over 100 daily users. Please join the slack channel (omnicore channel), or see Baris’ blog for updates. It is your decision to test it as you see fit, it is also your responsibility to ensure that it's working as you intended it to.
Check the phones compatibility list.

Omnicore and AAPS setup – explains prerequisites, how to setup the Omnicore app, how to compile and setup AAPS and edit the code to overcome bugs affecting the basal rates.
Omnicore use and troubleshooting – explains how to start a pod with Omnicore, and describes some common troubleshooting.
Omnicore DIY hardware – a ‘standard’ 433Mhz RileyLink in its default case is all that is needed to use Omnicore. This page describes other options, including fitting the RileyLink in a phone case (less to carry/charge), custom antenna design (to boost the range and reduce pod screamers), and wireless RileyLink charging.
