Running Carbon 1.1 on my VZW Galaxy Nexus and everything is running great. Can't wait for 1.1 on grouper!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] christianpeso:
Any word on the Grouper build? Just exchanged my 7 due to a blown speaker and waiting specifically for this.Running bone stock at the moment.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] lmulli:
Given that 4.2.2 appeared on the Nexus devices first (inc the Nexus 7), I am somewhat surprised that the majority of other devices have the Carbon 1.1 rom and yet this device doesn't. Perhaps its simply down to the devs for each device to maintain their own updates. I'm currently running Liquidsmooth RC1 which appears to be running perfectly well.

Re: [ROM][AOSP][LINARO] CarbonRom JB 4.2.1 [grouper] » Feb 7

Yeah I love the abbreviated nickname for some devices, HOX sounds like something you do when you have congestion in your throat not a phone lol.

Anyway no worries, and I did update my bootloader just to be safe. If anyone is curious, this rom runs fine on the new bootloader.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] czonin:
Quick question for the coming update. On my VZW Galaxy Nexus I had to flash 4.2.2 proprietary files before flashing a 4.2.2 kernel. Will I have to do the same for the N7 or can I just flash a kernel right over the ROM since we have an official 4.2.2 update?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] buffal0b1ll:
With 6/11 nightly I get the android.phone has stopped too, on dirty flash from 1.7. Tried fixing permissions, with and without gapps, wiping caches, stopping processes with TiBU and Manage Apps, but couldn't get android.acore to calm down.

On a clean install everything starts up OK, but this was just a test for me. Not willing to roll with clean because I don't feel like going thru the trouble of restoring all the multiple users I have running on 1.7.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mattmanwrx:
Clean flash needed from a nightly around mid may (maybe late april, cannot remebmer), sorry...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] buffal0b1ll:
Yeah. I think it happened around 5.22 when the ability to personalize sms notifications came to contacts. Ironic, because no sms on N7.

When go backup or titanium gets a shock way to back up all users then I'll be more ready to leave 1.7 behind.

Loving halo on my d2vzw, BTW
[Nexus 7 Original Development] carlz0206:
Anyone tried the latest nightly with halo tilapia build? Saw it in goo and tried it a couple of time until 1.7 but still has the same problems like you get fc if you dont sign in ur gmail account upon first boot and also fc's when entering app drawer, already using carbon 1.7 on my wife's nexus 7(grouper) and her Gs2 and also using it on my mako 6-12 nightly and would love to use it also in my Nexus 7(Tilapia)

Thanks for your hardwork and for sharing it and sorry ever i posted it in the wrong thread as i cant find any thread in the nexus 7 3g development forum

Thanks
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mattmanwrx:
Hey, can you try the very latest nightly, we added something that might fix the issue... If you can, please report back and let me know..
[Nexus 7 Original Development] carlz0206:
Gonna try and download later.

Edit: Tried the latest nightly and havnt experienced problems like before.making it my primary rom and setting it up atm.gonna report back if i can find any bugs. Thanks for this.now my Nexus 7 (3g) has been carbonized :)

Nav ring doesn't work on the las test nightly. It doesnt show target, however the target is there but not visible
[Nexus 7 Original Development] toanau:
Never mind bad down load
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Ultra_HR:
Probably this has been reported already, but also maybe not because it's never been fixed AFAIK.

In every AOSP-based ROM I've tried (also AOKP I think), when the statusbar is hidden the top of the screen doesn't respond to touch at all. Doesn't matter whether the bar is hidden by a full-screen app or because I'm using tablet UI.

Is anyone else getting this, and does anyone know how to fix it? Definitely isn't a hardware issue as the touch screen is responsive right to the top when the statusbar is visible.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mattmanwrx:
What version rom are you on? We reverted a commit a while ago that got rid of that, as many people (in here too) were complaining about it... If you're in a nightly rom, from this month (maybe even last month) then it shouldnt happen :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Ultra_HR:
Ah, glorious, I was on release! Downloading latest nightly now, thanks.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mattmanwrx:
Please report back and let me know what happened..

thanks :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Ultra_HR:
Aye, that did the trick, awesome.

Now, here's another thing I've noticed in other ROMs as well as this one. It's very insignificant, but in Tablet UI mode, when accessing the recent apps menu the current foreground app just sorta shoots off the bottom of the screen. In phablet UI mode, the foreground app shrinks into it's position in the recents list, like it should. Any idea what's going on there?

Very nice ROM you've got here though, this'll be my day-to-day I think now my old favourite's been abandoned :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mattmanwrx:
It is cos the tabUI is "hacked" and google no longer support... We didnt invent the TabUI, which is why it is on other roms too... I may look into, but i doubt i can fix it, sorry...

Glad the other thing is working for you though..
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Ultra_HR:
No bother, still a great rom, and thanks for the instant responses

[Nexus 7 Original Development] mattmanwrx:
U flashed gapps? Sounds like the "no gapps flashed problem" :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mattmanwrx:
U don't need to use halo at all... And I think we just put a "on/off" switch into the rom :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mattmanwrx:
U can flash xposed framework which will give you per app DPI... :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] CarbonROM:
Hey everybody! So we decided to make an actual CarbonDev account and post useful information about the rom through this account instead of our personal accounts, you know, so we seem professional and whatnot.We are also in the process of changing the OP's to this account so they don't say 1.6 anymore lol. We have contacted xda and are waiting for that to get done, all in good time. We hope this change will make everything a bit easier for you, our precious users, but also for us in a logistical sense. We try to do everything possible to make Carbon user friendly and to meet the needs of the majority and hopefully this will help us maintain that goal. Anyways, back to work! Peace.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] ricardowec:
There is no on/off as such. (none that i can see anyway) just the trigger icon on top of the notification pane.

I would like to disable it completely as we have too many more useful launchers already : pie, ribbon, ring.

If you find a way, please post.

........and since I hate completely useless posts, let me ask a question:

Will there ever be options to manipulate the Halo colors? I know some themes are including a themed Halo now. I was just wondering if it is something you have planned on a system level. Thanks for all the work :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Ryan35310:
There is a different type of themes. It's not exactly colors and i'm not sure it would work for this ROM as it was designed for Vanilla Rootbox, but here
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mattmanwrx:
We dont have any plans to add it in. I will put it to the higher up devs though...

There is also the "auto patcher" which might be able to help you patch pdroid into the rom..

We try to keep things looking as stock as possible... If PA implement a colour system, then we will use it, until then, I'd suggest using a theme (there are a few VRTheme system themes out there that change the colour :))

Just wanted to report a minor issue with nightly 0623, the speedometer battery icon which is my fav, is glitched. Not sure if this is the result of the change to "kill all recents" from nightly 0620, as I didn't install that one. Btw, I downloaded and installed twice to hopefully eliminate bad download.

Thanks as always for the update, it's an excellent rom.

Mike T
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mattmanwrx:
"glitched" in what way? I know it has been reworked recently...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] webdroidmt:
Sorry, meant to say it's a graphical glitch. There are random white pixels in the icon.

Mike T

EDIT: Looking at it again and it seems there is a white pixel near the beginning of the arc and another one at the very end of the arc. The charging animation is also very different, maybe that's the way it's supposed to be???

EDIT 2: Ok, I get it now. LOL I just took it off charge and I see how the white indicator is moving toward the end of the arc. Looks a bit odd while charging but it's cool. Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mattmanwrx:
Sorry for late response, I had to update my grouper to see if it was messed up for different screen size of something...

That is how it is supposed to be.. It was edited to look like that from the root box developer :)

What's the deal with Carbon ROM and Home button??

Ok, now I've tried Carbon on both my Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 (both version 1.6 and 1.7) and on both devices the Home button does not work. It's as simple as that! I can setup the home button so a longpress takes me home, and that works, but normal keypress on home button does not work, nothing happens at all? :confused: Has this happened to anyone else, or am I doing something wrong?

EDIT: Ok, I found out that apparently both home button and a host of other features do not work until you install Gapps. Strange, but at least it's an explanation.

But, it's a moot point today because the 0630 d/l is fine.

@mattmanwrx

Hi mattman. If you happen to stop in today, the changelog says there's a new script that might have a positive effect on performance. Can you tell us what was done to achieve this ?

EDIT: Just wanted to report some issues with the 06/30 nightly, file should not be corrupt as MD5 matched.

On first install, wiping cache/dalvik it hung at app updating screen

Second install, did factory reset, wiped cache/dalvik and it loaded to homescreen but had some weird issues. The recent ram bar didn't seem right and one time it showed 1005mb used, -31mb free. Also, the speedometer battery icon would set properly but in a few seconds revert to the ugly green or blue icon. It does it every time.

In addition, the UI was not working properly. I changed to Tablet and it stayed on phablet or whatever it starts at. Upon rebooting, it came up in Tablet UI. I played around a bit more and changed to phablet but it stayed on Tablet UI. Upon reboot, it just hung at the Carbon logo.

Thanks,

[Nexus 7 Original Development] :
Thanks. I like to restore titanium backups before installing GAPPS but noticed this wasn't working. Ended up flashing again before finding your post.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mattmanwrx:
I can link to the script a bit later, our repos have gone a bit strange...

not sure on your issues, will have to take a look... :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] webdroidmt:
I believe the script is called ANice, found it in the newly created init.d folder.Looks like it's a "Loopy Smoothness Tweak", read about this a while ago but not really sure what is does. I guess it improves smoothness. LOL

As for the issues, also having the same ones with unofficial Carbon on my Nook HD+.

In a nutshell, speedometer battery icon will revert to the plain blue or green battery icon, depending on which theme I use within approx 5-10 seconds. It appears that this happens only in Tablet UI.On the stock theme, the battery icon is a plain blue one.

Regarding changing any UI. When you change the UI(Tablet or Phablet), it acts like it's doing a systemui restart where the nav bar disappears for a second or so but it comes back in exactly the same UI mode. To get the UI to actually change, you have to reboot. However, on reboot, it will hang at the bootanimation.

Doing a hard reset will get it to boot into the OS and the UI will be changed to whatever you chose. It will do this every time you attempt to change the UI from Tablet to Phablet etc.

I hope I explained it clearly enough. Thanks again.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] Dark Jedi:
Must say this is about the best ROM I have ran for the n7 in a long time. Battery standby is just great. I have almost 4 hrs of screen time and have gone 4 days without it being on the charger still have 22% battery life left. One weird thing is on my battery stats it shows a few lil charging spikes but I never put the tablet on a charger during this time. Any clue as to what would cause this as they are very little spikes. Its a great ROM very snappy no lag at all from what I can see. So if anyone is looking for a ROM with good battery life while in standby this is for you. I tried pa for a long time but to much issues and battery life was horrible to say the least. This will be my new daily driver as I wait for the release of the next is upgrade guess its going to be called key lime pie?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mattmanwrx:
thanks, glad you like it... the spikes ould be a reboot / turn it on and off?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Dark Jedi:
If its a reboot then it did it on its own and there would be a break on the timeline? I never rebooted or turned it off.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mattmanwrx:
Hmmm, strange, I'm not too sure why it would have those spikes... I will check on mine when I have a chance...

Its no big deal I just wanted to explain I did not plug in the tablet when I posted the screenshot and people say well you charged it some here and there. That's all.
