Can someone confirm....I can not get carbon to boot on the last 4 nightlies ...It gets stuck in roam and won't boot..any suggestions? Running latest cwm and have had no issues with any other roms

---------- Post added at 12:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:54 PM ----------

Pardon me....boots however stuck in roam and can't get past activation screen
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] il buono:
I posted this two pages back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] yooeee:
i've been waiting for a daily drive since version 1.8. Are the nightlies stable enough for daily use? it's been a long time since I've flashed and I'd like to see what's new.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JBeXX:
I've been running the dailies on and off for a couple weeks now. Very stable for me. Occasional hiccups with the camera but haven't had issues in a few days.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] il buono:
Hey, a fellow Tucsonan :) I tend to switch around a lot but I consider these nightlies to be fairly stable. A lot of features have been merged in so I'm sure you'll find some goodies. If you rely on the camera a lot then make sure you at least have a touchwiz backup to fall back on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] arcane spade:
I too use the nightlies as my daily driver. Occasional glitches but I usually just wait a few days to see which ones not to flash based on people's comments. I haven't had any problems with 9/23 nightly yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skrowl:
Full list of steps

Full list of steps:

Power Off

Take out battery & remove SIM card

Replace battery & Power On

SKIP when it asks you to Insert SIM card

Select & Connect to Wi-Fi

Sign in to Google Account. Accept Defaults for Google Services.

Top pull down > Settings > More > Mobile Networks > CDMA Subscription. Change to RUIM/SIM.

Power Down

Remove Battery & Insert SIM Card

Replace battery & Power On

Wait for ROM to settle, then try to make a phone call

Please add this to the OP until the nightlies are fixed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SupaSwag:
A lot of unnecessary steps in there that are just common sense. Anyways, it has been discussed a lot in here and if it hasn't been added to the op yet I doubt it will be anytime soon. dg4prez used to be in here often but I think he doesn't come here that much now since they have a G+ community.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fireattack7:
Where do you find the Active Notification settings?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] orangechoochoo:
Or skip activation (press all four corners clockwise) then continue and set the mobile network and subscription appropriately.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shawn12350:
Thanks for the awesome ROM. Loving it. But is anyone else having issues with the dialer. Every time I try and open the dialer it force closes on me. I've tried wiping cache and Calvin and it still force closes
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] arcane spade:
I have been using 9/23 nightly for 2.5 days and no problems with the dialer/phone apk yet. One nightly I had some phone app problems I flashed a different nightly and that seemed to fix it.

I use CWM touch 6.0.3.6 to flash, I've had problems with TWRP 2.5.0.2 and the next 2 editions. Try checking md5 or using a different nightly, then wipe system/cache/dalvik and reflash.

I've got more recovery zips if you prefer a different version (can't remember where I found all of them) but PM and I can share.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shawn12350:
Thanks for the reply and help. Much appreciated. I did another clean install and all is working perfectly now.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BossJ:
Is there no PIE yet?? I can't find it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SupaSwag:
There's no PIE yet and there probably won't be for the foreseeable future. It's been talked about a lot over at G+. Either flash a rom that uses it (such as Vanir) or the Carbon dev recommends using LMT launcher.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Black6spdZ:
Are you referring to the VZW SIM or another carrier SIM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BossJ:
OH really? Ok, I'll check out G+ and see what's up
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SupaSwag:
He's referring to the VZW sim. Why would he be referring to another carrier's sim?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] snael:
Wow this ROM is incredibly nice. I had been hesitating because it was all nightlies but jeeze good job. The only flaw I can find is the gesture typing on the stock keyboard doesn't work. Other than that great work!:thumbup::thumbup:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SupaSwag:
Yeah man this rom is sick. After they fixed the network bug a couple builds ago it has been just about perfect. I was running Vanir for a while but then for some reason battery life started to take a dip on it. Came back to Carbon and I'm not going to be switching anytime soon :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jhvoorhies:
Is there still that annoying phone bug where sometimes people can't hear you?

via my Galaxy S IV
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SupaSwag:
No, I was referring to changing a setting within mobile networks in order to get signal/data when coming from a clean install. I don't remember the last time I had the call bug you're referencing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jhvoorhies:
Ah. Its been a few months. I loved carbon until the call issue was happening. I've been on eclipse aosp. Is this ROM still unbelievably smooth/fast?

via my Galaxy S IV
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
Is the 9/23 nightly the most recent?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fireattack7:
No. There is a 9/28 nightly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jhvoorhies:
No there's a 9-28 nightly

via my Galaxy S IV
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkrickles:
Sorry I was going to an old link. Thanks guys
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SupaSwag:
I wouldn't say "unbelievably" but yeah it's still smooth and fast :D

Yeah the mirror links haven't seen new builds in a few days. Goo.im is where all the action is now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hadoukyuu:
Just fresh installed the 9/30 build. Everything is flawless except that I cannot send text messages but I can receive them. Anyone else experiencing this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bsimpson1:
I've heard people say this is caused by voice plus. I would try disabling it to see if that helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hadoukyuu:
Fixed! You da man! Thanks! :highfive:

rom has been really solid. It has really cured my flashing addiction :D

Notifications Bar

Does anyone know how to make the notifications bar black while viewing the home screens? The status bar appears black in all applications but is transparent on the home screens. I can't find a setting to change this behaviour :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JBeXX:
Settings, interface, transparency settings
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JT114881:
Thank you!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Menardo:
Jltevzw is the correct one to download?!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] perceptualdoor:
Indeed it is.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
I'm loving this ROM. The option to change animations is definitely one of my favorite features. Had only one random hiccup today where it seemed to go into SOD. I'm running the latest chronic kernel as of this morning so it only happened once I installed that, just once mind you. Ran flawlessly on stock kernel. Haven't run carbon in a while but I gotta say I'm really impressed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rrrrrrredbelly:
Hey, just installed this rom for the first time yesterday. I was getting a FC in settings when I tried to set the lockscreen options. Flashed the 10/7 nightly this morning and now settings FC when I select carbon fibers.

I know these are nightlies, just curious if others are having this problem. Did a full wipe before flashing last night.

Other than this, love this rom, I can try different nightlies going back
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JBeXX:
No issues here on any of the most recent nightlies.

Are you running any themes? And which gapps are you using?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] il buono:
If you're using a theme then that's the likely culprit. Not all themes cause a FC but there are a few out there that do with Carbon Rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rrrrrrredbelly:
No themes but fixing permissios

did the trick

Does anyone have another download link? The Carbon site isn't working and I've tried to download it 3 times now on Goo but it's corrupted each time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
My only issue (that which seems to plague most aosp/cm based ROMs) is the audio cutting out every now and again. Other than that this ROM is amazing. Been running the 10/5 nightly with the latest chronic kernel and couldn't be happier.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jackburnt:
Is there an aggressive task killer in the ROM? I'm having a weird issue that feels like a task killer. Basically, it keeps killing running apps. Tasker will run, then POOF, turned off. It starts again, then gone. Same thing for my Live Wallpaper. I even tried to get a log of it, but it paused logcat!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kvirus11:
Are we still all on the 8-13 Gapps package or is there an updated one?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcconvict:
Well bumping up to 4.3.1 apparently knocks the quick toggles back to default. Other than that, everything else seemed unchanged
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jfu:
Is there anyway to get photosphere on this rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rrrrrrredbelly:
I know from the change log it said the tiles/toggles were changed back partially because of request, but I would love to see something we could flash that would give us the option for the previous tile versions. On the grand scheme of things, not a big deal, loving this rom. Thanks for all the effort.

Just letting others know cause I saw your post and almost flashed it myself
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] johall07:
Does this rom still have the NFC always on issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gleggie:
what happened to the traditional CM notification bar toggles? A lot of ROMs recently, including Carbon now have the wierd toggles that are integrated with quick settings? :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] johall07:
Do you have a pic of the traditional?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gleggie:
They look like this http://cdn9.staztic.com/app/a/2103/2103651/cm910101-theme-deepcyan-5-4-s-307x512.jpg

It's been fixed for all AOSP based 4.3 ROMs for about a month.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] loonie01:
I can say this one of the smoothest 4.3 roms that i've tried. The only thing is that i see is weak signal where i work (thats kool) and camera doesn't focus in too well up close. Other than that , smoove rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Trumps:
So far its super smooth.

One thing I have noticed is that if you silence the phone, and then turn the ringer volume back up, SMS notifications don't make noise.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
Known issue among aosp ROMs at this point. Making a call and then hanging up immediately brought them back for me. Might try it.

I've been using Moto X camera app ripped from another Rom. It seems to work better than the AOSP camera on Carbon but handles very similar.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dragonice81:
If you don't mind, do you have a link for that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] arcane spade:
Here is the apk I believe there is a thread where you can get it too. Might be more up to date than mine.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Trumps:
Another goofy thing - sometimes the clock doesn't update in the notification bar until you turn the phone sideways. It will be several hours behind and rotating the phone so the orientation swaps fixes it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gleggie:
Is there any way to get Power widgets back in the notification bar? I'm not used to the new CM/Slim/PAC tiles so i have to stay on 10/9 for right now...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] yooeee:
it's not. everyone is moving on due to redundant coding and simplifying everything. i do miss it though for the quick music control and brightness control.

I just updated to 10/19, are anyone's colors all messed up? everything is orange... went back to 10/18
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
Not mine
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fireattack7:
Are you using a custom kernel? If so, make sure your kernel has been updated to the latest CM video drivers. Any ROM with a CM base will have the new video drivers. If your kernel doesn't, everything will be orange.

Mine is the same way with the last 2 nightlies and KT Kernel. I'm back on 10/18 as well with KT Kernel and no issues. I'm just waiting on KT to update the video drivers.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] yooeee:
ok, I use KT kernel too. Initially I thought it was some weird Halloween theme. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shockz:
Is the font in the date and time kind of squished for other people as well? Same with the WiFi indicators? No big problem, just wondering if it is supposed to be like that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cadams122593:
so im running carbon on my galaxy s3 and im switching to the s4 in the next month. question... does the s4 have a locked bootloader? cause the s3 does and we unlocked it. and will i be able to flash carbon, cyanogenmod, liquid ect.. with a locked bootloader? thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rrrrrrredbelly:
As long as you get a phone with the mdk baseband you'll be fine. I got my phone @ Costco about 2 weeks ago and they still had them, probably depends on where you're getting your phone. Once it's updated to me7 (or the most recent update) you can root it and use safe strap but as far as i know, no aosp roms can be installed.

Basically, look for a phone without updates, throw the phone in airplane mode and root it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] h4ck3rc1:
Has anyone come across an apparent bug where the back button appears to temporarily stop working? I have so far experienced this with the stock browser and stock email client and also with Candy Crush, but have not noticed it occurring on any other app. It has been happening on the last couple of nightly 4.3 releases and does not happen even as often as every day, only sometimes. I'm on an GT-I9300T if that helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shockz:
I had that problem when I flashed the wrong gapps package
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] h4ck3rc1:
When checking Play Store build version, it is 4.3.11 so as far as I can tell, the gapps version is correct.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rrrrrrredbelly:
I've seen that issue on other devices when the wrong or no gapps were flashed. What's the date of the gapps package you used?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] h4ck3rc1:
The name of the file I used is gapps-jb43-20130726-signed.zip

Yeah, I am running that one now to see how it goes, I decided to update with 2 people already suggesting it, so will let you know how it goes
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cadams122593:
say if you got the me7 baseband phone, could you odin back to the previous mdk build?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rrrrrrredbelly:
Nope. Not @ this time at least. I haven't read to much about it but it sounds like Samsung is locking phones down
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] h4ck3rc1:
Thanks guys for your suggestions. It appears that the new version of gapps may have solved the issue :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shockz:
I thought it was more Verizon than samsung
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] boogerboy72:
Yep. Phone constantly fcs. Any fix other than use stock kernel?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] johall07:
Re-flash ROM. No issues here running 10/25 nightly. I used stock kernel for a day or two then flashed ktoonz. No problems at all with either.

Edit: I did notice that my mobile data networks> network modes was changed to only 3g.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MongarEric:
Not exactly sure what you mean by "Phone Constantly fcs." Do you mean the phone app force closes? By phone do you mean your physical S4 and that every app force closes? As for any fix other than use stock kernel, what kernel are you using? Did you try looking in that kernel's thread?

Okay been waiting for a good minute now and no updates on the release of 4.4 and no updates on current rom and it starting to bug out and im not receiving text and calls as my friends and family complain that i never respond to them. Starting to look elsewhere..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] arcane spade:
Carbon posts updates on Google+ or their website. They are still working on it. http://carbon-rom.com/carbon-4-4-is-still-in-progress

But in the mean time you should look elsewhere, no reason you can't and just come back later. Do what I did and crack flash a new one every other day or so just for fun. I'm running CyanFox which is under regular dev section not original dev but it runs pretty well (basically CM11 with Halo added). I also enjoyed CM11 nightlies by itself (not much in features but fairly stable) or OSE (release not nightly, nightlies were vary buggy for me) or Vanir nightlies. Beanstalk and Omni are packed but were really buggy for me.

If [MENTION=3965058]dg4prez[/MENTION] would prefer I take it down, I totally understand. I built it more as a way to learn than anything else.

Only kernel I've tested it with to get wifi up and working is the latest Ktoonsez. I spent a little more time this morning poking around and have some idea as to why wifi isn't working with the the default kernel, but won't get a chance to play with it again until later in the week.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] flyinj54:
I tried building and device file error like the needed files weren't there for jfltevzw. The file under carbon/devices seems to have the device files. Did you have this problem or can you offer any advice? I would tell you the exact error but not currently home. I can check the specifics if necessary later.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
Did you create a local manifest to pull the jf-common files, kernel, blobs, etc from elsewhere? The kitkat branch hasn't been updated yet to include some stuff you need to build for the S4 so you'll need to pull from another source. If you need some help let me know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] flyinj54:
No I didn't. Thanks I'll give that a shot. I may need some help so expect an im lol. Thanks appreciate it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ironclad Lou:
No problem. You can use this as a guide to get you started. Rename it to local_manifest.xml (had to add a txt extension for it to attach). Drop it into /rootofyourbuilddirectory/.repo/local_manifests

Also make sure you edit /device/samsung/jfltevzw/system.prop to include the line ro.telephony.default_cdma_sub=0 or else the CDMA subscription won't be set to RUIM and it'll hang at the activation screen on your first boot.

FedEx guy just showed up with my new laptop tonight :victory:. As soon as I'm done getting everything setup and playing with it for a bit I'll do another sync and see if I can tackle the wifi issue.

Good luck! Once you get all the pieces in place it's pretty straightforward.

This isn't my daily, but I'll poke around the gerrit and update when there are key fixes or features. It's definitely a fun ROM to play around with.
