Afaik it makes it so that you can get full charge speed through a computer's usb port by disabling the data pins in the usb cable. when it's enabled, you cannot connect it to a computer which is the tradeoff
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] slick_rick:
The kernel doesn't support fast charge, no Note 2 kernels do at the moment. So the toggle will not work.

Is this (GPS dropping in 4G zones) an issue for the 1.6 release or just the nightlies? I've tried the GPS workaround fix a couple of times and can't get it to work. Steps I followed:

Backup

Factory Reset

Flash MacksROM3.5

Open Maps and get GPS lock on

Immediately reboot into recovery

Factory reset

Restore Carbon Backup

That's right - right? Was I supposed to restore my backup or reinstall carbon all together? I wonder if it's not working for me because I'm always in a 4G zone... I'm on 1.6, not nightlies.

Side note: I really like taking pictures in widescreen (6MP 16:9). The AOSP camera doesn't support it. I found someone who made a mod to do this but not sure if it will work for us. Anyone had any experience?

OP's post stating "how to do it": http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=38141399&postcount=219

Double side note: stellar ROM. Much much quicker than TW and I got much better score in 3DMark. I heard Linaro would help with my FPS and it did, my score went up and my GPU isn't even overclocked yet! (Will look into how to do that on Carbon soon)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Lyvewire:
Long story short. On stock and some TW Roms you can access PRL update screen by pressing ##3282# to change your PRL to a modded version that forces your phone to roam. There is Hidden Menu apk floating around XDA that allows this feature to work on TW Roms that disabled this. Didnt know doesnt work on aosp. PM for more questions. I dont want to turn this into a how to force roam thread..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] dakoellis:
oh Ok yea I know about the ##DATA# But I thought you were saying you had a mod to get it to work on aosp or something.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Lyvewire:
No I wish I did. The APK I have doesnt work on aosp.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] dakoellis:
Just in case you go back, there's an app calsed sprint diagnostics (there should be an apk somewhere here) that enables you to choose a directory and put all your prls in it. (it may also let you do it without reboot, but i don't recall). you don't have to deal with the ##data# stuff anymore, don't have to deal with renaming it test.prl, etc. Probably something that every tw rom has, but im not sure if the dev has given permission, etc.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Lyvewire:
That was a genius find! It does a bunch of other stuff too. Flashing as I'm typing

Thanks!!

Didnt work. Forced Close. Good try tho!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] dakoellis:
that sucks. I remember I came across it when I was looking for an easy way to flash prls on aosp, and I thought I saw someone say it worked on their GNII. Possibly a different rom?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Lyvewire:
Yea the zip flashed and loaded up. But once you try press any option its a forced close. Here's the thread though.

Beautiful ROM, I've flashed this one and RootBox each a couple times. This one benchmarks faster without a doubt. I've been able to figure out most of the things that are important to me by searching this thread, such as how to add the calendar, voicemail etc. I have been having one problem though that seems to stick no matter which of the two ROMS I'm on, no matter how many times I re-flash, and regardless of which bluetooth ear piece I'm using.

Everything works fine, except I can't answer with the bluetooth turned on. They can hear me, but I can't hear them. I've tried with blueant Q2 & their new Q3 and a plantronics discovery 925. They all respond the same. I can make outbound calls fine, hear audio perfectly, etc. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Also, I've noticed a huge difference in the past by using Wi-FI TXpower from the play store to boost my wi-fi speed from the 10mbs up into the high 20mbs area. But it says I need to have iwconfig. Any easy ideas or suggestions on a how a noob can add that in? Thanks a ton, love it! :good:

Am I the only one having bluetooth issues? I also just tried flashing the latest nightly, and still the same issues. Is there a bluetooth file I can just grab from an alternate ROM that I know bluetooth works fine on and then add it to this one or something like that? Any thoughts or help is greatly appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] dakoellis:
It's working fine for me. Are you sure it works on other roms? If it was me,I would try a tw rom and see if it works, then go back to see if that fixes it. It has worked for other things for me in the past.

Change voicemail phone number

I've been trying to edit the voicemail number under dialer settings but the number will not save. Are there any codes to enter to change it. ...

By the way thanks for the excellent rom runs much better than the TW / 1600 no overclock is just as fast as a TW @ 1920. Keep up the good work!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] honki24:
I really like the Carbon ROM but no GPS didn't work for me. Just saw on the LiquidSmooth thread that the new nightly fixes GPS and it was correct. I flashed it and my GPS worked!!! (I am in a 4G LTE area, using LTE right now) http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=40526830&postcount=111

I just checked the 4-22 Carbon nightly and GPS worked!! However my LTE was suspiciously slow so I'm currently restoring a TW (MacksROM) nandroid to do some speed testing to see if it was the ROM. I could definitely tell a speed difference between LTE and 3G but usually I can get 5Mbps LTE and I was only seeing 1. I just updated to MC2 modems today too so that might have something to do with it. Will update after my phone restores MacksROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jerdoggmckoy:
Thanks, but what do you mean by a tw ROM? I've been able to flash the Synergy rom & Macks rom and bluetooth was working fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] honki24:
Agreed! I got aggravated at how my GN2 slowed down on bigger games and lags frequently. I've been running comparison tests with 3DMark. Attached are my findings.

Carbon was at 1600Mhz with deadline

LiquidSmooth was with 1600MHz with deadline

MacksROM was with Perseus, deadline, and 1800MHz + 800Mhz on GPU

NoWiz was with standard Kernel

(The order of attachment is Macks - Carbon - NoWiz - Liquid)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jerdoggmckoy:
Oh, TouchWhiz. Duh, thanks ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] honki24:
Just flashed back to MacksROM and got results all over the charts... Some were normal, 4Mbps, some were slow, 0.74Mbps... Weird. Wonder if it's MC2.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] honki24:
I like it a lot. I'm on the 4-22 nightly (I saw that there's a 4-23 nightly, but I'm not jumping until the next stable release). GPS works, I haven't tested MMS yet. It's way faster than I could ever get MacksROM to be and it's 3D gaming scores are much higher. I use 3DMark which is a very resource hungry benchmarking program for 3D rendering. Couple of issues I'm having:

Can't find the "USB debugging" option so that I can get Ti to work... I tried clicking on the build number 7 times and getting "developer access" and that worked but I can't tell what difference that made. Under developer options in settings there is a debugging mode but Ti doesn't recognize that as what it wants. Subsequently, Ti doesn't do anything.

I don't really like the PIE control (or haven't figured it out completely quite yet). I like Macks and Liquidsmooth much more because they are customizable, they allow you to enable the controls on both sides of the screen, and you can shrink the engagement margin on the sides of the screen. With Carbon's PIE control not only can't I customize it with whatever apps I want (or I haven't figured out how yet) but also the engagement is too large. When I have the keyboard open I can't hit the "p" because it brings up pie controls on the right.

Thanks for the link to the camera. I decided to give up on photo sphere but I did find a better AOSP camera. It has better bit rates for video and has 6MP (16:9) mode which I want. It loses HDR but the AOSP HDR sucked anyways because it took far too long. Here's what I installed as my camera: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=28173707

I want to flash this Nightly and I know sometimes the gps is an issue. If I flash a custom rom then dirty flash this if I wipe dalvik, cache and do a factory would I keep my data w/gps working or is it "necessary" to wipe date too. I have a gapps someone recommended a while ago but wasnt sure if because these nightlys are more recent theres a more current Gapps to use.

Thanks

AOKP slider targets seem to be missing this compared to CM implementation. We had to switch to AOKP way though in order to add Ribbon functionality.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jerdoggmckoy:
I think this ROM is totally slick. I love it! I've posted before, but for whatever reason, my bluetooth, and I've tested multiple devices, does not pick up and answer the initial call. Everything else works, but on incoming calls when I answer, I have to switch to phone and then back to bluetooth headset to get it to work.

In reading up, I saw someone talking about stock kernels vs custom kernels etc, and how bluetooth usually works best on stock kernels or whatever. That got me to thinking, since my bluetooth works fine with other TW ROMS like Macks & Synergy, can I just flash the perseus kernel and see if that fixes my bluetooth issues? Or the stock kernel, or what anyone else recommends? If so, what version, where is it, etc? Thanks in advance for any help!

As much as I love this ROM, at the end of the day, my bluetooth, calendar and flashlight toggle are the most important things I have to have for a fully functional phone. Still trying to figure out how to get the torch/flashlight toggle on this one as well, but one step at a time.

Has anybody downloaded the newest nightly 4/25?....I want to try it out with the new Matrix kernel but I'm a little hesitant because of the changelog warning that states that it might be a bit unstable...My phone is such a good place right now but you know curiosity and stuff... also thanks Carbon team installing this ROM is the best thing that ever happened to my phone :laugh:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] honki24:
Yes, I'm on 4-25 right now. I had to try the PA settings. Haven't found issues yet. Thanks for the tip on the theme, I'll check into that.

-Take that back. I was just downloading that Theme that you mentioned and I just tried to unlock the screen and I turned it on, swiped away the lockscreen, and then the Carbon boot animation was on the screen. 3-4 seconds later my home screen appeared... I don't know what's up with that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] iwould4adollar:
Apply default theme twice, reboot, then try again. It will work then. I don't know why, but it does.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cuezaireekaa:
4-25 'feels' stable to me but its only been a day so far.. as far as if its gonna 'work' for everyone is still being tested so it might not be a good idea to upgrade if yooure in a good place but that is what nightlies are for. it just really depends on what you are gonna use the phone for, and if that feature is working for everyone. thats the thing with nightlies is; they mght fix a certain aspect but then something might break in the process. for the most part, everything is working like it should.

im not seeing that bluetooth issue tho. you can flash the Matrix kernel for this rom and try that but NOT the perseus or any other TW kernel. this is aosp. torch works just fine. google calendar is in the market now. just like gmail. nbd.

GPS is fine here.

the gap doesnt happen to me because i use the aokp style Nav bar under Carbon settings, and leave the nav bar in Hybrid settings at 0% so i cant really comment on that. plus i dont ust tabletUI

do what the user above me said to get your theme to stick. hope that one is what youre lookin for :)

-sorry i didnt quote. i was on a smoke break.:o:angel:

It work for cm10 & cm10.1 you must first apply the stock theme, reboot then apply the red betterbean theme... Hope this helps ;)

No but you could maybe make a vertical aokp ribbon on the right and keep pie on the left. Then you could assign the pie controls to work with the aokp vertical pop up bar/ribbon. Just by adding the' correct buttons/icons on the bar

Thanks looks cool. Might try it. However I really like accessing the camera by sliding the lock screen to the left. I imagine I can't do that with a 3rd party camera app. Just narrowed down a specific issue. When turned to the front facing camera it typically freezes and doesn't update the viewfinder even though it will take pics.

If you replace the camera in system/app wouldn't you be able to use it on the lock screen? I could be wrong.

When you slide to the left from the lockscreen you get a pop up to let you choose which camera app you would like to set as default.
