Just updated from 1.6 to 1.7 and I've noticed a few things that are either bugs or oddities.

If there are no notifications, dragging the statusbar down always goes to the tiles screen. I can't find any way to disable this behavior. If one has toggles in the statusbar, it becomes a PITA to use them. (This can be partially remedied by going to Settings > Carbon Rom > Statusbar Toggles > checking Enable fast toggle and choosing a side that you rarely drag from.)

When setting custom lockscreen targets, the ability to choose an icon is more limited than in 1.6. In 1.6 there was a small handful of built in icons for SMS, Gmail, Google Now, etc. Those are gone and I only get the app chooser for file managers now.

Trying to disable the capacitive keys use the on screen nav bar exclusively is a convoluted process. One has to:

Go to Settings > Carbon Rom > Navigation > Hardware Keys > check Enable Custom Actions

Set all actions to "No Action"

Go to Settings > Advanced > Sensors > uncheck Enable keys backlight

Go to Settings > Sound > uncheck Vibrate on touch (and this disables *all* haptic feed back, not just on the capacitive keys)

Even after the above, there are places where you can't get to the menu because the 3 dot overflow button doesn't appear, such as in Apex Launcher (only way around this is to force the button to always be there in Settings > Carbon Rom > Navigation > Menu Visibility > Always Show) EDIT: This is Apex's fault, not Carbon's.

Sometimes the nav bar option gets stuck and you can't disable it without rebooting. Normally, when you toggle it the UI sort of resets and it takes effect, but when it gets stuck (possibly after playing with the overflow button option under Hardware Keys) the UI will reset and the nav bar will come back. Rebooting fixes it.

On every screen in Settings > Carbon Rom, the 3 dot overflow appears in a separate bar along the bottom, above the nav bar, rather than in the title bar along top like you would expect.

The way I got 3.4 roms to stop having sods, and random reboots was by flashing the ROM and gapps only and start it up and do every thing I need to setup my phone for everyday use (restore apps, etc) then after a while I flash a custom kernel and other mods. I found that if I flash ktk kernel before the first boot I get random reboots 24/7
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] juancaperez2000:
with all do respect but if im not wrong thats the properly way to do it: rom, gaaps boot, boot on recovery and flash custom kernel, at least thats the way how i been doing since my original EVO times.

It's always gonna go to the tiles unless you have an active notification to check. It's been this way ever since 4.2 dropped. Why not just add the toggles you want to the tile screen? Problem solved. Unchecking vibrate on touch does exactly what it describes.. It disables vibrations when you touch the screen. What do you mean you can't get to the menu? I'm not sure how apex works, but on nova, hitting the left softkey from the desktop will bring up nova options.. Not sure what menu you're referring to otherwise, as that particular complaint is rather vague. Hitting the softkey in other apps will have different effects obviously, and if it's the launcher options you want, the desktop and launcher menu options will only work if you have that active to use.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buffal0b1ll:
I've been waiting to flash the kernel until after first boot too lately. More so because you can't be sure if you're going to find a 3.0 our a 3.4 kernel till you check.

Carbon Rom 1.7 flawless in Garmin Connect, even in cell signal dead zones
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sycobob:
It's not like that on stock 4.2. It's also not like that one 1.6, IIRC. As far as just using the toggles screen instead, yes that's a workaround. Honestly, I prefer the toggles aesthetically and would rather use them than the tiles. It also means I can always just drag down the notification tray with one motion and be able to accomplish my task, rather than needing to do a different motion (two finger swipe) or tap the button to switch between notifications and tiles. Here's the rub: why have toggles, if you also have a feature that makes them harder to use? It you're going to have toggles, it makes sense to give the user the option to disable going straight to the tiles.

Correct, but consider that in the context of the scenario explained in my post. What if I want to use the nav bar in place of my capacitive keys? That is to say, I want to disable the capacitive keys entirely, so they don't light up, don't have haptic feedback, and don't perform any functions. Further, I want the nav bar to have haptic feedback. It's not possible. There's no way to disable haptic feedback on the capacitive buttons without disabling it on the nav bar, too (that I can find).

Yes, that's the correct menu, but again consider this in context. If I have disabled my capacitive buttons in favor of using the nav bar exclusively (which is why it's even in the ROM, right? Sure using both the nav bar and the capacitive keys should be an option, but that's not the intended scenario, is it?) I have no way to get to that menu, unless I force the overflow button to always be on the navbar.

I just tested this on my girlfriends Nexus 4. Neither Apex nor Nova show the overflow button on stock Android, so this isn't the fault of the ROM.

I also noticed a bug while posting this. If you've forced the overflow button on the nav bar, tapping it often plays the tick sound twice.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buffal0b1ll:
I really like the idea of Easy Select multiple sms recipients in Messaging, but it isn't a feature that I can use because all phone numbers for all contacts show up. Please consider adding an option to show only mobile phone numbers.

Thanks for a great job on a great ROM:)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pocii29:
Lot of ungrateful people in this thread. Thanks devs for the great rom!

For the record I have my hardware keys disabled and am using the navbar and only the navbar and keyboard has the vibration feedback.

Also, when I swipe from the top left, it's my notifications and from the top right. It's tiles
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Seanzle:
Halo would be amazing
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sycobob:
I hope I didn't come off as ungrateful. I love the ROM and appreciate the time and effort spent on it. Just pointing a few things in case the team has the time or interest to address them.

In any case, do you have haptic feedback on the nav bar (keyboards typically have their own vibration settings)? If so, could you share how you accomplished that?

If this is the right thread for the official for d2vzw I'm running the 5/5 nightly and I say it's a jam up off the chain nice AOSP experience. It's so clean I'm staying on the stock no frills launcher. Bravo!!!

After a few sketchy attempts at my usual goto liquid, I thought I should try it.

Not too much extra junk. No flickers, no bugs so far. Strikes me as the "cleanrom" of AOSP 4.2 ROMs. Well done Devs!

Is Carbon compiled using Google GCC or Linaro GCC? I see on the website it says uses Linaro optimizations. What exactly does that mean? Thank you.

That's a great question. Dumb non-dev like myself would like to know and learn.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pocii29:
Yes I do have haptic on the navbar. Not sure how it got that way. I think it's always been that way
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dg4prez:
They're basically the same thing. The official google toolchains use linaro, now. We've found GCC to be faster - it's compiled with GCC 4.7.

Re: the default behavior with the notifications - you can easily set it up to show you notifications by default and then quick pulldown for the tiles on the left or right. showing the tiles automatically if there are no notifications is by no means the only way it works. it's certainly not how i have mine setup.

glad to hear the switch from TW back to Carbon made for working GPS.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sycobob:
Right, that's how I've worked around it. I still have to be careful when I pick up my phone with my left hand, as I'm likely to hit the tiles area when swiping down.

Battery life has been amazing w/stock kernel. I do want to know why the Google services is dominating battery usage. But as I said before, it's just a stat. It seems to not effect battery life as a whole. It's by far the best rom battery wise period for our device!

FYI, MHL/HDMI output works (video/audio) however it does not seem to scale. On a 1080p display, it only displays on roughly 2/3 the screen. On GalaxyMod it did seem to scale properly. Both ROMS seemed to have a fair amount of overscan (content not visible/off the edge) but for video it's fine.

Seems like a snappy ROM, but everything seems snappy the first day or so. Glad to be back on 4.2.1 .

Tried LK and still unable to send MMS picture.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ckelly33:
Quoting myself here. I had this problem this weekend on 1.7 where I would set the camera to store pics to the ExtSD card and it would indeed take pics and it would store them on the ExtSD Card. The problem lies when I go to swipe R->L after storing one to the ExtSD card. The swipe action brings up the pics on the internal memory and not the external SD card.

When this happened originally I cleared data on the app, wiped cache and dalvik, fixed permissions and just tinkered with it until I was able to take pics to the external card find them when I swiped R->L. I don't know what fixed it.

Happened again when I clean flashed to get GPS. Again, it was fixed by spending time doing the same things above but I never figured out what did it.

Now, it has happened again. I guess flashing LK did it this time, but who knows.

Anyone know why this is happening or how to fix it??

EDIT: I went into Astro and opened the pics that I had been taking to my ExtSD card but unable to find with the R->L swipe. After I viewed a few of the pics, I reopened camera and did one more R->L swipe, gallery pulled up and they were there. Not sure why this isn't happening automatically for me like it has in other builds.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buffal0b1ll:
Are you using Clockwork Mod recovery? Older versions can cause this boot problem. Try newest TWRP recovery instead. Also try wiping caches and fixing permissions after flash.

Did you try to flash a kernel too? 1.7 requires the newer 3.4 kernels. Flashing a 3.0 kernel with also cause boot to hang.

Mine did the same thing on 1.7 using the latest TWRP. I pulled the battery and reinserted and it booted fine and has ever since.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fcardona86:
I had this issue before too. My phone wouldn't provision correctly. I knew this because my phone number in settings > about was always incorrect. If you don't provision correctly MMS group text won't work. Very strange, I think clean flashing was the eventual fix. There's some other loops you can jump through to fix it for a little bit, but clean flashing is the cure.

Did either the newest stable (1.7) or the newest nightly restore the function to custom map the longpress of the hardware keys on the lockscreen? This feature was removed when the AOKP lockscreen was merged.

I find it really useful to set one of the keys to launch camera so I can pull out my phone and snap a photo quickly.

Also, is the msm_otg wakelock fixed? I'm running 4/20 (because I need the hardware keys remapping from lockscreen) and when I reboot the phone even when plugged into the AC adaptor, the phone refused to go to deep sleep and BetterBattery Stats points to msm_otg as the wakelock culprit. Usually I thought this bug plagued previous builds when the phone was inserted as a MTP USB device to your computer, but the wakelock happens to me when I reboot the phone while connected to the AC adapter.

A simple reboot without connecting the phone to anything solves the problem though. I guess for those of you that are having battery problems, go into Settings>Performance>CPU States and make sure your phone is deep sleeping while idle.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pocii29:
There isn't any lockscreen hardware remapping in 5/8.. But what you can do is swipe to the right and it will pull up the camera widget from the lockscreen. And you can remap unlocked buttons to camera
