Re: [ROM][AOSP][LINARO] CarbonRom JB 4.2.1 [d2vzw] » Feb 6

It's like the keys stick and are registering as being pressed for longer than you pressed them. I never use recent apps, so I just rebound long press home to do nothing, but sometimes it happens to the back key also, which is extremely annoying when you're trying to browse on tapatalk and the back button takes you back more than one page. I haven't seen it happen for a few days though, and a reboot always fixes it, so not a big deal. Seems like it's a problem with lots of 4.2 ROMs, who knows, maybe 4.2.2 will magically fix it.

Re: [ROM][AOSP][LINARO] CarbonRom JB 4.2.1 [d2vzw] » Feb 6

You are on the wrong kernel and/or with the wrong governor and/or with the wrong scheduler.

The ROM is only a part of the equation. A ridiculously battery intensive app(s) could cause this too. GPS on all the time especially with apps on that use it destroy battery life.

Don't blame the ROM. Troubleshoot to find the culprit. Usually if everyone else is getting good results but you are not, it may be something with your particular setup.

Also, your battery may be getting bad on you.

Re: [ROM][AOSP][LINARO] CarbonRom JB 4.2.1 [d2vzw] » Feb 6

Signal strength makes a big difference as well. Tweak all you want but those who have consistently strong signal will always have much much more impressive battery results.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] griz.droidx:
Amen to both... One question, if you're in a poor signal strength area, but use wifi all day instead, send some texts, make some calls, playy a little freecell. will you get better life than not using data. I can get 3g at work as well, but again signal is poor.

Nice Rom and Nice job.

Greetings fellows, I can't remember if I posted or not after installing last night since it was late, and I had to get up early.

These are the Features I'm looking for. Nice to see the notification style options included. Gonna ride this Rom for a while and see how things go. I'm sure it will go well. Good Job guys on Making/Forking a New Nice Rom.

Would the inverted slim gapps work with this? I tihnk they should.

Congrads again on a job well done.

Carbon Changelog

And it looks like nightlies are still being built...Here's the downloads
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mapatton82:
First of all, Goo.im is freezing all updates in preparation for a server upgrade this weekend. Secondly, the Carbon devs are reworking their build server so updates for the next few days may or may not happen. Keep in mind, Nightlies are not guaranteed, they may fail to build or they may be nothing to build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ryanallaire:
I just hope that when official 4.3 comes out that it'll fix data issues, i swear that half the time my phone says LTE it's really 3G cuz is SOOOO slow!!

Anyone having issues with games freezing? A lot of games freeze and a few times have rebooted the phone.

I'm on the 10/28 nightly, no custom kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samsgun357:
Are you asking if it works well on this ROM or how it works in general?

I'll try to answer both;

I'm not on carbon now but it ran really well for me. I only had it crash like twice over quite a few nightly builds. I like the pocket mode, it works great just putting the phone face down, pick it up and BOOM, notifications are there.

How it works; basically puts notifications on the lockscreen but its just a black screen, saves battery. You can read and clear from the lock screen or you can choose to open/unlock and respond to the notif.

I'm waiting for Android Milky Way

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RCOVA:
Just chiming in. Been liking the nightlies alot. The only feature that I miss that has been broken for a while is the quick pull down without notifications. The option with removable notifications works but not the one with all notifications. And thats the one I prefer. Even though there is no notifications it still doesn't pull down the quick toggles. Hopefully I'm clear enough.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zeus33:
If I understand you correctly, you can at least use the quick pulldown option set to the right or left side. Then, when you swipe down from that side, it will pull down the quick tiles instead of the notifications screen.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Juice3250:
So I finally worked up the courage to come back to this ROM. The first time I flashed it I was running an out of date twrp and I lost my imei. So consequently I was worried it would happen again. I have since updated my twrp and have my imei backed up now. Everything is running smooth on this. This is definitely the smoothest ROM I've been on. Every other ROM with list animations was choppy. Not so on this ROM.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] arathorn4:
Thanks. Think it's smooth then? I'm still on the official 4.2.2 carbon. Anything not working?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Juice3250:
I've only been on it for less than a day. Too early for me to tell. Plus I don't use all of the features, ie. Pie, Halo, Ribbons, Nav bar.

DSP has force closed on me once when I open it from Spotify. I couldn't get Viper audio to work for me. It says it installs the drivers and I reboot but nothing changes when select different options. Not a deal breaker, though for me. It's definitely the smoothest and most stable 4.3 ROM I've been on and I've tried a lot of them. But of course you have to try it for yourself to see if you like it or not. I'm not sure how different it is from the stable 4.2.2.

Active notifications are pretty cool and work well on this 4.3 ROM. They come baked into it.

I'm not sure if the devs are just ignoring this thread or if it has just become too unmanageable for them... but there are still some persistent bugs that have already been mentioned in this thread.

Attempting to highlight a color's hex value in any color selection dialog box of "Carbon Fibers" results in a force close. This FC is not really an issue, but all FC's should be squashed ASAP. Crashing is just bad.

Enabling "Floating window" in "Carbon Fibers" - "Statusbar" - "Quick Settings" results in all options under "Carbon Fibers" being inaccessible when you launch either "SETTINGS" or "CARBON SETTINGS" from their respective quick tile toggles.

The lockscreen has a feature where you can apply a battery level ring that is colored according to the current battery level. It's under "Carbon Fibers" - "Lockscreen" - "General" - "Battery level around lock ring" This applies a colored ring that gradually turn from green to yellow to red following all the shades in-between IIRC. This code could be easily applied to the battery icons (circle / bar) as well. It would make for a very nice feature that could simply be applied with a check box.

Has anyone been experiencing a lot of random reboots when using GPS navigation, YouTube, or any other CPU intensive apps? Sometimes it's almost impossible to use Google Maps between the random reboots and shoddy GPS locking lately.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Juice3250:
I tried to get roundr working on slimbean 4.3 and wouldn't work. I switched to slimbean. I was getting random reboots when using the phone heavily. It's probably something that plagues all 4.3 ROMs right now. If I experience the same issues I may just switch back to 4.2.2 ROMs. It's difficult because most of the 4.3 ROMs run better for me than 4.2.2. Better signal and call quality in low signal areas. Carbon just has too many feature that I don't use. I don't use halo and pie but I guess those are standard on most 4.3 ROMs now. I've never got into using them.

Not complaining cause I keep going back and forth between carbon and slim but I'm wondering if 4.2.2 is more stable and reboots randomly less than the nightlies.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] countryfolk07:
Only a couple issues so far. DSP manager force closes trying to set up with a Bluetooth headset and messaging force closes when trying to attach a voice recording. Otherwise my best 4.3 experience yet. Only 4.3 I've tried that my Bluetooth headset doesn't skip. Thank you team Carbon!

Not sure if it was a 4.3 issue or not but I was having trouble with tapatalk working properly. Specifically with signing in and it properly loading all the threads. It did this on slim and carbon 4.3 ROMs. I switched to Eclipse 4.2.2 and don't have this issue. Plus I didn't care for the call issue where there would be approximately a 2 second delay after I received a call for the other person to hear me. I would say hello right when I answered and they wouldn't say anything until I repeated myself.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Comp625:
Is this a common issue that is plaguing everyone? That sounds annoying. If it's a common problem, is it only CarbonROM that's affected or is it affecting all 4.3 users?

For those who have migrated from a Touchwiz 4.1.2 ROM, have you noticed any difference in Call Signal Strength? I know this used to be quite a heated debate, but it seems like Signal Issues between TW vs AOSP have been cleaned up? :confused:

Lastly, has

Bluetooth Call Quality

been improved with 4.3? There are numerous reports of "robotic" and/or "garbled" voices on 4.1.2 and I'm hopeful that it got fixed in 4.3 - see this link from another forum.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dvaderx:
Actually I just went back to touchwiz because of the signal & data issues. I live in an area that gets good 3g and when you get a little closer to the highway good 4g signal. so it's usually not a problem however. I am away on vacation where i don't get a real good signal all the time and it's been a headache all week. Here i get usually 2 bars of 3g and if i go up on the ridge tops i can get 1-2 bars of 4g. all pretty consistent. (with touch wiz) so i really don't have a problem staying connected. when i was on carbon earlier in the week. data would go out all together, i'd have to reboot all the time. most of my signals were 1x and 4g was pretty much non existant. so it is still an issue, but not so much if you live in a good signal area. I know the RIL is still not where they want it to be. but i can't imagine software makes such a difference with a hardware interface (i.e the radio talking to the tower) but apparently it does. as i said. when i loaded my TW rom, my signal issues went away and i always have at least a decent 3g no matter where i'm at. If they ever get that worked out there would be little reason to stay on a stock rom everything else is good to go.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Comp625:
Thanks for sharing the real life experience!!

Signal strength is my number one concern with going AOSP. I wonder if this is why my old Galaxy Nexus (i515) was plagued with signal issues (because of AOSP "RIL" coding). Ever since I switched over to the S3, signal has been incredibly fantastic.

My secondary concern is Bluetooth - it is so b0rk3d in older versions of Jelly Bean. At first, I thought it was my car but the external link I provided earlier shows that multiple users with multiple cars were affected by poor (robotic and garbled) sound quality. I work in Sales so Bluetooth in the car is incredibly important.
