Carbon ROM... it's TITS!!

Hey guys, just wanted to share some stuff that I think is cool about Carbon ROM. I've been running this for 2 days after making a short test venture on a worthy Sense ROMs by il Duce... ( I Fu+%#n6 hate Sense,but had to prove it to myself again) no offense to il Duce or any sense ROM developer, it's all dissatisfaction to Sense and HTC. As many of you know already after just a few minutes of being set up and exploring this ROM will agree, that this ***** off the hinges. So many tweaks and options built into one ROM it's ridiculous. For me it's a mix of PACman (which obviously has Paranoid Andriod incorparated), RootBox, and one of my dead favorites for our device, CodeFireX. Synergye was doing some awesome shyytt with CodeFireX, but had to drop it for our device due to lack of participation (no worries, Jamie stepped in with some awesome shyytt PACman). So, with all that being said, I am loving this ROM for its wonderful speed and UI flow, optimizations, beautiful built in dark themeing, but was missing one thing that I absolutely loved about PAC/Paranoid Android... per app settings... scratch that shyyt. You can have per app settings if you don't want to do a full DPI change. As with Rootbox ROM, XPosed works with Carbon ROM. All you have to do is go to the thread for XPosed, make sure you read the first 2 posts (please do not be lazy and avoid taking the time to read. I will not be responsible for anyone not taking 5 minutes to read and understand (5 minutes is generous) what is posted in this thread for precautions to run XPosed. Please note that there are more modules available to pimp your phone, but for the per app setting you will need to install the apk found here. Also, to give you a heads up, in order to make this work (again follow the instructions and read thoroughly the information on the XPosed thread) once the per app apk is installed you will have to choose an app to change the DPI settings for. I did Gmail because I like Dual Pane Mode for Gmail. The settings I used for Carbon ROM with Gmail are different from RootBox, so don't refer to any post I made for RootBox. With XPosed on Carbon ROM I set DPI: 220, Font Scale 100, Screen DP to 800X1280 and checked the box for : XLarge RES and got the results on the attachment. Play with it a little to get the results you want and note that a custom theme by Vicino or any other themer may require you to change the DPI to get the desired effects. If you need further help, send me a PM and I will get to you quicker than posting on the thread.

**P.S.** When you visit this site, make sure you check out the other MODS available for XPosed. If you see something you like and try it out, share your experience for others to be informed. (**MAKE A NANDROID FIRST!!!**)

Hey guys things have changed. Carbon ROM and Liquid Smooth have swapped places. LS can now be found in post 2 here, and Carbon Rom in its own repurposed thread. CR has been updated just now, anyone running this will be very happy with the improvements.

Because a programmer at Google has been careless? :cyclops:

I've found that it doesn't happen on every ROM (AOSP or Sense). I've taken to using Greenify to hibernate it when I'm not using it. Also for My Tracks...

I've had it happen to me on this ROM and on Deck's 10.1. All I can figure is the fact I have location history enabled, but that's the extent of my knowledge on the matter. I was hoping somebody might be able to explain it to me :eek:

Are you using Google Now? If so that's a known resource hog. You might try manually turning GPS on and off when needed, and not using the history/bigbrother (jk) tracking feature. I always disable auto sync and anything else that puts excessive drain on the battery when not in use. Like FB , weather, notifications etc. I just sync what I need when I turn the screen on or open up w/e app.

Yeah, I'm using Google Now. That's the only reason I don't turn off location. I use Now only for the weather. I have everything else turned off, including the FB, Twitter, and whatever else syncing in the background. Maybe Google Now will become streamlined and less of a resource hog in the future. Thanks for the input Jamie! I have been running Liquid Smooth for over two weeks straight now, and it's my favorite AOSP rom so far. Thank you!

Sorry for OT, Jamie.

If I want to use Liquid Smooth? And is Liquid Smooth compatible with the latest firmware or do I need to revert? I'm s-off and used Capt's firmware update.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
If you're s-off you got is easy, don't worry. As for those gapps, there are newer, I believe (linked in OP, I believe), but those should work.

(Hopefully no one proves me wring, been out for a bit) should be GTG, though.

Jamie, thanks much! Don't rush for sure. I had to go back to a Sense ROM for 2 weeks because of signal quality issues. I'm on call and had problems in an area that was always good for me. That and the speakerphone volume is too low for me... :(

Thanks again,

When ever you reflash this and use speaker phone turn the volume down a few notches then back up and it should be louder. Kind of a weird issue with all these aosp ROMs.

Liquid Smooth Update 4-28-13

We're working on our sight so I will post this here for now, this post & OP will be updated soon.

Changelog 4-28

Synced all sources; Liquid, CM, AOSP

Linux Kernel 3.0.73 (4.7.3 compliance)

GPL compliance- Team-LOTK Github Thanks Rohan32 for patch set found here

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamieg71:

Sent from my EVO
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] yeoldeusrename:
Sorry for my vague question. I meant Deck's latest 4/26? Or the cm nightly? Or an older build?

Just wondering because it's been a couple months since Deck has committed to the official cm (if I'm reading the github correctly). Also there was a camera fix that just showed up on cm nightly 4/24 and deck 4/26 I believe. Thanks!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamieg71:
Latest CM source. I've never pulled commits from Deck's git for a ROM I have released. I think its worth noting that while Deck (and Toast) brought complete functionality to our device, & continues to make strides towards a 3.4 kernel, there have been many contributions to all three repos (msm8960-common, jewel, msm8960) from a variety of other developers. Intervigillum, & Rohan32 continuously update our kernel versions, I mean its impressive following the commits. You should also check out gerrit as there are an assortment of things there as well. It seems the jewel is on the back burner from the CM perspective, might be due to the recent issues associated with HTC proprietaries.... Its certainly not due to a lack of effort from Deck Intervigillum or Rohan.

Didn't work. Your talking about "Security" in the WiFi Tether app right? Where it says "Enable access-controll". Or in Settings?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
OK. Wireless tether.

The general instructions are choose generic ICS/JB device.

Then, below, find ms clamping and select that.

Should work fine. Does for me. These are the same instructions that have existed for 10mo. Unless you're trying to use secure connection, in that case, I Dont know. I figure, if I got internet to use, everyone else should, too.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ink718:
ICS/JB (wlan0) or ICS/JB (wlan1)? I tried both and nothing seems to work for me =/ ...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
Those instructions work when using the built in hotspot option.

Try that.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ink718:
When I flashed this ROM, I did not get any WiFi Tether app with it. I had to manually install it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
Did you check system settings> wireless networks more > tethering portable hotspot?

I'm not running this but I think all aosp roms have it. Then do what was said before.

This.

You tried it at the place in the screenshot below? Repeat the process.

1. Set security to "None" while hotspot is off.

2. Turn on hotspot.

3. Set security while it's on.

4. Now it should work as expected.

5. Repeat the process when you do a clean install of a cm10.1 based rom.

If it still doesn't work, maybe you need a clean install. I'm out of ideas anyway.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ink718:
You're talking about security in settings in WiFi Tether app right? (Enable Access-control)?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] yeoldeusrename:
No. It's the "Set up WiFi hotspot" button in the screenshot. This where you set up security for the built in hotspot.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
Again, that are talking about the stock, built-in, android standard, tethering feature, from your MAIN settings menu. Has nothing to do with any app. It's a standard android feature accessed thru system settings.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamieg71:
I got the pm haven't had a chance to get on talk yet. Here's what you want- https://github.com/PAC-man/pac

Check out the read me at the bottom of the page. For your -j parameter, use twice the number of cores for Intel. So yes if you have a 4 core processor use -j8. And definitely use CCACHE it makes a huge difference on build times for recursive builds.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chriswbush:
Alright thanks I already got the repo synced and I didn't know there was a read me down there haha I just didn't know they included a script to build and I'll check out cache I didn't want to use it the first time because I read it takes a little bit longer the first run and I just wanted to build haha so for jewel I'll just do the same correct? And I run make clean before I build each time correct so that the out folder is empty? And sorry for this here I figured if I needed help you would know and help, I lurk and read haha
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamieg71:
You use ./build-pac.sh (device name) -j(w/e) for any device that you have all the proper device/common/kernel/vendor files set up for. If it's an unsupported device it will take a little more doing by creating the proper files for it to build.

I run 'make clean' or "clobber" after a major update or after any kernel/framework commits. Also if I experience failed builds or after fixing a build error.

Running CCACHE stores a "library" of certain aspects of the build that will/should remain consistent and is used by recursive builds to avoid doing some of the "math" involved in the compiling process. While it may, (not really sure as I've never noticed myself), add to your initial build time, it more than makes up for it on recursive builds. As an example, on a fresh repo sync, jb build, for example, my build times will vary from 14-28 minutes depending on what I'm building, (CM opposed to Carbon). On recursive builds for any ROM I have built at least once, I average 5-10 minutes, again depending on what I'm building. GB recursive builds for the OG take under 4 minutes. BTW sent you a request on hangouts/talk.
