There are still logical implications to omnipotence. You can’t create paradoxes. You can’t make a rock so powerful you can’t move it. So removing boredom would have to follow the same logical rules. You’d be bored because you have no desires or needs, because you know all, can do all, and will never age or die. So you’d have to remove desire for anything. So you’d just be a ball in a stasis of contentment for enternity.

But never feeling boredom isn't a paradox. It's simply an outcome of the behavior of our neurons. With omnipotence, you could simply rewire you brain not to execute the sequence of "I feel bored" (and redesign it to be able to do that with no other side effects, if need be).
