[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] eRadicant:
I've been from AOKP to PA and now Carbon

Carbon is definitely my favourite. I'm running Apr 7 Nightly.

Very feature rich, super impressed

The nav/status bar hide options are very versatile/flexible but there are some minor problems

My current setup is 'expanded desktop' disabled and I have toggles for each bar (status and nav) in my quick settings. I also have PIE and chevron targets enabled and Navbar Drag Handle width set to 0%.

The only issue with this setup is if I disable status bar, I have no way of getting it back. If nav bar is disabled, I can access quick settings through PIE chevron targets. If nav bar is enabled, there is no way of getting it back. One solution is to add the power menu toggles but I don't like using the power menu. I solved this issue by adding a Nav ring shortcut to 'enable status bar'.

^The above setup works really well for me as I like to have independent control over each bar and I don't like using the power button.

Anyway, here is a summary of everything else I observed while playing with the settings:

No major issues but thought I would point everything out anyway

minor issues:

*Expanded desktop "status bar only" not working

*Screenshot delay in status bar toggles not working, screenshot occurs immediately after quick settings rolls back up

*date is cut off in PIE quick settings and notificationsc and in tablet mode

*Navigation section of Carbonrom settings cuts off when scrolling with space to spare at bottom

*Settings title changes to "Navigation" and never changes back, title issue happens with "statusbar toggles" as well

*Navbar drag handle doesnt update live when navbar hide is enabled > instead it translates the bar horizontally (glitch) > but fixes itself after disabling and reenabling

*"Show wifi network name" , tbh don't even know what it's supposed to do

*carbon wallpaper apk force closes if you try to apply before image is downloaded

*Some issues with lockscreen, cant pick up widgets and remove them immediately after turning screen on, it will pick up and drop after half a second

*All live wallpapers are very laggy, not smooth at all

*doesnt prompt to unlock when navring used on lockscreen - I have a camera navring shortcut, and had multiple instances of camera opened after unlocking

*"hide initial page hints" option for lockscreens doesn't work

*PIE activates even when nav bar is enabled, specific situation: navbar is set to a smaller thickness and you swipe up from just above the navbar

things i'd like to see:

*Would like it if PIE chevron targets would expand standard notifications/quick settings if status bar is still enabled

*Navring options to access notifications/quick settings like chevron targets in PIE would be useful > also, an option for same behaviour as previous point

*If PIE is enabled, the Navbar Drag Handle should default to 0% as it does nothing anyway

*Statusbar navring icon should ideally be grey like the google now icon, otherwise it is blank when highlighted

Screenshot

*Carbon wallpaper apk has no landscape mode, wallpapers are blurry on manta (low-res wallpapers)

*The quick setting toggles for nav bar and status bar are inconsistent, one is named "navbar hide" other is "status bar", so if both are enabled, one is white and other is blue

Screenshot

*Recent apps behaviour > When on homescreen and I tap 'recent apps', it has an animation of my last opened app minimising which doesnt make sense. In stock AOSP, the recent apps screen just fades in (when on homescreen) and is how it should be imo

edit: Now the complete opposite behavious is occuring, always fading in, never any minimising animation

*Quick settings when accessed through PIE on tablets is space wasting as it uses same amount of toggles per row as the normal drop down quick settings
