As long as Omnath, Locus of All remains under your control, you'll retain unspent mana as steps and phases end, although that mana will become black. This means you can add mana and spend it during a future step, phase, or turn. Once Omnath leaves your control, you'll have until the end of the current step or phase to spend the mana before it is lost.

If unspent mana you have has any restrictions or riders associated with it (for example, if it was produced by Omen Hawker), those restrictions or riders remain associated with that mana when it becomes black.

Omnath's last ability isn't a mana ability even though it can cause you to add mana. It uses the stack and can be responded to.
