Worth noting that changing the governor to msm-dvcs really helps with battery drain on the 4.3 version. For reference, here's what my CPU stats were after sleeping for ~3 hours on interactive. Clearly, something is wakelocking the phone and maxxing the CPU...

EDIT: Also, brand new android install with nothing at all running in the background. Just installed JD a couple seconds before the screenshot
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] dark.blue:
hai...

is the latest build already able to make external sd card as the main storage for apps & data ???
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
No, that is not available - at least not easily, I think if you do some symlinking or some such thing it works. Never tried it myself.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
Hey I was testing STOCK 4.1.2 rom w/root and I am getting an average of 11 hours.

What is this ROM like?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
When swiping up the home button, phone does a hot reboot on 9/4 nightly.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
Hm, I'll ask if it's a common issue.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] sloosecannon:
Battery update (haven't updated yet, still a couple nightlies back)

I spoke too soon. Msm-dvcs helps but still draining badly. Something is seriously wakelocking the CPU at max while sleeping (still over 50% of the time at top clock speed). Probably a bug across all the 4.3 ROMs, I doubt it's just Carbon. For reference, cm10.1 runs about .24% of the time at max clock speed
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] RikRong:
I've run a couple of the 4.3 ROMs and left them both set at the governor that was preset when I flashed. I found that changing to any other governor would make the CPU stick at max freq. For some reason, it was the worst on MSM-DVCS. Now, I just always leave it at whatever is preset and I find that I get the best battery life that way.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] sloosecannon:
Huh. I was getting high CPU with the default (interactive I think)

I plan to do some more research...
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
On the preset values I'm getting pretty good life only about 4-5% battery drain/hr under light-normal use. Using arrrghhh's kernel BTW.

What is the difference between the 9/4 and 9/5 builds?

Any notable differences? (About to flash...)
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
After 8 hours I have 66%!!!
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
Nice! You doing anything special, or did you just update ?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] St.Noigel:
09/08 build - still no signal on GSM network...
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
I'm not sure what you mean "still"? How long has this been an issue? This build is "made" for Verizon phones, so you realize there may be required changes in order to get it working on another network - right?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] St.Noigel:
I change

in build prop to

On all previous versions (to 09/07) GSM after this works fine... ((

But on 07/09 & 08/09 - it don`t work ((
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
Are you sure that's all that is required? Isn't there some GSM fix to flash? Do you know what that changes?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] St.Noigel:
I change something else (I don`t remember what...) on build.prop & it works fine!!

I attach my biuld.prom for anyone, who wants have GSM on PACMAN!

Just replace build.prop on PACMAN`s zip & everything will be fine!
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
Well I deleted alot of system apps that I really dont use and thats about it.

Im trying out CrossBreeder today to see what improvements I can get from that.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
I'm getting about... 14-15 hours of battery life
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] ashonka:
Does this ROM have pie control yet?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
Not yet, I know it is being worked on.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
Hey I have a big issue that I can't figure out...

Whenever I plug/unplug from power an alarm (not a notification) starts going off.

It can only be dismissed by pulling down the status bar. I can't find any settings anywhere to disable or change it.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
Hm, do you have any apps you can think of that would control your alarms?

I can't recreate this. Anyone else?

Edit - got a PM from a helpful user. Evidently there is a setting for this!

Go to Settings --> Advanced - near the bottom, there is a setting for plug/unplug alarm. Thanks budbuss!
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
Advanced? I'm not seeing any menu/category or anything that says advanced in settings.

Could you be so kind as to provide a screen shot?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] Germanese:
So any one tried 9/11 ?

I have the ROM zip downloaded.

What else do i need to get this to work on a GSM network.

I see people are flashing some mods and other are editing a file.

Or even flashing older radios.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
I've heard that you just flash a GSM file, just do some digging around in other threads and you'll find it no problem.

(Seems to me more people are using GSM vs CDMA)
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] sloosecannon:
Nope. That'll probably cause a brick. It has a build.prop designed for 4.2

You need to edit it yourself using the instructions a few pages back...
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] Germanese:
Okay so the build prop will enable the GSM to work properly in the US, now what about Europe ?

Is the build prop edit also fixing the GSM in Europe or do i have to figure out the radio all together for Europe ?

Reason I am residing in US but my gf is going back to EU in a few so was planning to get both of us on Carbon.

But her phone originally required the Aussie Radio from older Stock ROM to receive good connectivity.

There are some post about them but they are very vague on what is exactly needed.

Thanks alot
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
GSM is GSM, the only thing you might need to adjust is the APN for data/MMS. In other words, if it works on GSM here, it should work there - assuming you've done your homework on frequencies.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] Germanese:
Yes both phones work either place, only difference Stock VZ Radio didn't yield good connection (Dropped calls ever 5min into the call)

same stock VZ rom with Aussie Radio made the phone operate normal with no dropped calls.

Also Stock VZ over in europe made the phone stuck on E and again gained 3G to 4G on Aussie for data.

It may have been the area or some pre added setting on the flash part but that is why I am asking before hand.

Thanks
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
Hey I want to say thanks fr this awesome ROM! Youve really done a great job!

Ive noticed that in "Carbon Fibers", "System Tuneables" doesnt show any menu like for example "Navigation". Its just blank.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
I've hardly used my phone today.

I am using the 09/15 nightly, latest aarrgghh kernel, latest Xbreeder, greenify.

My kernel settings:

Governor: Wheatley

I/O: ROW

Min/Max freq: 91/1512

I don't know what is up with there battery but for not hardly using it today the battery life is ridiculous.

Any help would be much appreciated.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
Have you checked your wakelocks? There's a few apps on the Play Store that make this easy.

Would be my best guess, some app misbehaving and keeping your device awake a lot.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
Yeah I have the app, here's the screenshot.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
I found this in another thread, do you think it would work?

" ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=0 - This setting puts your phone into a deeper sleep when on standby. This may improve battery life.

pm.sleep_mode=1 - This sets the phone to use power collapse when in standby.

0 - Power Collapse Suspend

1 - Power Collapse

2 - Apps Sleep

3 - Slow Clock and Wait for Interrupt (default)

4 - Wait for Interrupt"
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
I like the latest nightly :) (0923)

Only 2 problems... NFC will not turn on. And every thing is pretty dang laggy...
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
Hm, I've had other complaints of lag on xt907 - no NFC yet tho.

Have you experienced either of these in the last, or any other recent nightlies?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] ktracho13:
I'm also experiencing lag on 9/23.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
No, I jumped from 0914 -> 0923.

I'm gonna do a full system wipe and reinstall... Will report back in a few...

Off topic have there been any new RC's for 4.3?

EDIT----->

OK Ive done a complete wipe and reinstalled, still no NFC and the lagging is still not good.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
OK, can you guys confirm that the 9/14 build is fine on all fronts?

Lag, NFC, etc?

Now what I'm curious about - and this can cause issues, but will hopefully narrow down the issue. I normally don't recommend intentionally mismatching things, but there was a kernel update on 9/15, so can someone try the latest nightly with a kernel from before 9/15? I roll my own CM kernels, so this might make it easier to pick an older kernel to test with.

So there's a few kernels to try from my thread, I built one on 9/15 in fact that is right before the 3.0.96 upgrade, so that would be very interesting to know if that makes a difference with any of the issues.

Let me know folks - this will help me narrow down the issue, and perhaps help the CM people fix any issues with the kernel upstream. If it's not the kernel, we have more work to do...

Thanks!
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] fo0you:
RE: Lag

I had mentioned this in the beanstalk thread. I was flashing cm 10.2 nightlies until about a week and a half ago. Something changed around that time (sorry, I neglected to notate the exact nightly date) whereby it seemed system lag increased in general. Animations were extremely choppy at times and it just had more lag in general. Changing governer to Ondemand seems to help, but did not improve my experience with the extreme lag in some 2d games (flick home run to be exact). I cannot speak as to the issues particular to this specific ROM as I have not flashed this in awhile, just throwing it out there in case it helps.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
So, you never really narrowed it down then? Are you still experiencing it? Perhaps most importantly, do you experience the same lag on cm10.2?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
I tested the September 15th kernel on the 0923 build and it does work "better"... But there is still something else going on that is making it lag.

---------- Post added at 12:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:25 AM ----------

Do you think pulling a logcat would help identify the problem?

My logcat is above, .zip file
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] fo0you:
I flash the newest cm 10.2 nightly each day to see if the lag issue persists. As of the 09/23 nightly, it does. I experience this same lag with any 4.3 ROM built recently within the past week and half or so (as I said, I cannot put a finger on the exact date).

Currently I'm running the 4.2 Release version of Carbon without issue.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
Thanks buddy.

It's a common CM issue guys. Not sure what did it exactly, but if it broke with CM it'll get fixed with it too ;).

In the meantime stick to a 9/15 or earlier ROM it seems.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
Will do boss
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
Nightly 0925 is working better than 0923. Also Google Wallet works on this build no FC's!

Also NFC is fixed!
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
Sweet!!

Thanks for the report. So lagginess gone completely? :)
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
No, about 25% better though. Without your kernel or any mods.

Would you suggest flashing your 0915 or 0919 kernel?

---------- Post added at 01:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:51 PM ----------

I do suggest that you disable ALL animations until the lag issue is 100% gone if you use nightlies as your daily driver like me ;)
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] calbrs:
The 09/26 nightly is working great on my phone. Love that active display is included in this rom. But are there any plans on adding an option so that I can choose which notifications appear on the active display?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
You'll have to put in a request to ChameleonOS, they are the ones we are getting the port from.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] St.Noigel:
Have CARBON 4.3 PA Pie-control?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
Not yet. There is no PIE in 4.3 Carbon (yet).
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] Duckie1217:
Just noticed the new Active Display setting in lockscreen settings. I noticed a few clear issues and uploaded a screenshot.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
How is the smoothness in the latest nightlies? better than 0926?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] calbrs:
I'm on the 09/28 nightly and its running very smoothly. The only times that I notice it slow down is if I change the animations from default to anything else.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] GalaxyNexus1st:
The latest nightly fixes this

Sent from my XT907
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] calbrs:
I updated to 09/30 today. What I have started to notice is that my soft keys show up every once in a while on my lockscreen. It doesn't happen all the time, and the buttons don't function.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] Hell-Intimidator:
What's the original mobile network RAZR M using? I was messing around with it and now don't have LTE on my signal.

Weird, it seem like I'm able to use data, but won't able to send text
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
Should be mode 10.

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_motorola_xt907/blob/cm-10.2/device_xt907.mk#L58

Just do a factory reset if worse comes to worse...
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] Hell-Intimidator:
I think I got it. Been switching around different network and finally got a signal using CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
Just FYI guys, there are two download mirrors for CarbonROM:

Edit - the latest nightly also has PA's PIE :)
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] St.Noigel:
Updated to Android 4.3.1!!!! Perfect!!

Is Carbon first AOSP on 4.3.1??
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] calbrs:
I've been trying to do a fresh install of the latest nightly, 10/09, and every time that I try to flash gapps it fails. It's the same gapps that I have been using since carbon went 4.3. It says "Incompatible Android Rom Detected, this gapps is for 4.3 only."

Anyone know where I can find a 4.3.1 gapps?

* I went back to an older nightly, flashed everything, then dirty flashed the latest nightly.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
Hm, I'll try clean flashing a fresh build on my device. I think most people who go nightly-to-nightly dirty flash ;)

Edit - are you using Google's gapps? The "official" gapps? gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip

I just clean flashed, no problem.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] St.Noigel:
I clean flashed nightly 10/09 - boot nice, but I had reboots when works with ROM.

Now waiting 10/10 nightly
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] PhantomZwei:
I also am having random reboots on my device..on both 10/8 and 10/9. I did a fresh install both times. After ROM install, I also installed the official 4.3 gapps.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] calbrs:
I was using PA Gapps 08/13. I have it working now.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] calbrs:
Having problems sending mms with the past two nightlies. I go in to change the apn settings and they don't stick or disappear. But if I use sliding messaging it sends mms just fine.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] St.Noigel:
Do you use device on GSM network?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] calbrs:
Verizon

update- 10/26 nightly fixed the problem.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] calbrs:
Well I thought that it fixed my problem, but I had to reboot my phone and now no mms. Sending or receiving.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
Are you pulling nightlies from the future? lol.

MMS is really annoying, especially on CDMA carriers - I went through hell with Sprint trying to get MMS to work on an old AOSP port called XDAndroid (was for WinMo devices)

But I digress. The real "solution" I've seen is use a third party MMS app like GoSMS if you need MMS. I just tell people to send me email, as MMS doesn't ever really work for me (I use Google Voice).
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] calbrs:
lol. I didn't even catch that one. Anyways, I find it weird since mms was working a fine about a week ago without messing with any settings. Then again, these are nightlies. And maybe it will be the 10/26 that works out perfectly.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] ej1911:
I'm having same problem on Slim. Toggling airplane mode after boot seems to resolve it.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] St.Noigel:
:confused:10/26? О_о

It will be release 4.3.1?? :victory:
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
4.3.1 was out a little bit ago... I want to say a week?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] St.Noigel:
I meant release of Carbon 4.3.1.. :eek:
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
We haven't really done a Carbon 2.0 yet :p That will come first I think, haha
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] St.Noigel:
:D:D:D:D:D Sh...*** I meant Carbon on Android 4.3.1!

Question still open - why "it will be the 10/26 that works out perfectly"(c)? :p
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] calbrs:
10/16 nightly is based on android 4.3.1 :)
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
I can't wait till carbon v2.0 will be out! I'm running CM10.1.3 stable... It is so stable and smooth, whenever I go back to carbon I love the features its just not... Smooth and polished enough...yet :)
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] calbrs:
So far on the 10/19 nightly everything has been smooth. For the most part, the nightlies have been very stable. No force closes or anything like that. The only hiccup that I have noticed was this mms problem, but it seems to have been fixed.

Recently the nightlies have been adding more features than having to fix bugs.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
Yeah I'm on the 10/18 nightly right now. I'm getting good battery life on it. Its just not smooth at all. What ever happened in mid September, ever since then CM based nightlies just aren't smooth like they used to be.

Does this ROM have Int.d support?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] St.Noigel:
Is it possible to switch off 3-dot menu button if I`m on Pie-control?

Apps still have 3-dot menu when I don`t turn it on in "interface" ((
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
Have you tried restarting your phone?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] St.Noigel:
Yes... But without result.. 3-dot menu still present..
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] hackeruti:
I'm wondering about that too...it's not with just this ROM, but all the CM roms has this same problem.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
Carbon, CM, PAC, liquismooth..... Every thing.

CM10.1.3 stable is the best in my opinion.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] St.Noigel:
With new "system changes in telephony from CM" on 10/24 nightly I have FC com.android.phone when I set "only 2G" (( [MENTION=420530]arrrghhh[/MENTION], is it possible fix this?

UPD - incall volume is horrible!! (((
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] mic213:
Just tested out only 2G (on GSM) and had no FC. Did you do a full wipe?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] St.Noigel:
Yes - clean install... I have the same FC on OSE ROM 10/24 nightly .. (
[MENTION=2394588]mic213[/MENTION], did you use any GSM fix or manually make changes in build.prop?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] mic213:
I used the GSMFix. I also changed network mode in mobile network settings to GSM/WCDMA from its default setting, CDMA + LTE/EvDo. That might be whats causing your FCs.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] St.Noigel:
Hmm... Thanx, Sit - I`ll try this way..

What fix did you use?

I was check "2G only" on settings... May be it`s the reason.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] hackeruti:
I'm getting the FC android.phone too the past two nightlies. Should o do the gsmfix too?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] St.Noigel:
Yes.. But I also tried to fix build.prop to GSM-usage & still have FC.

GSM network works fine for me, but I can`t configure it...

I think that reason of this are changes in telephony from CM & GSM-fix it`s not a reason of this..
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] hackeruti:
Still getting com.android.phone fcs since the 10/22 nightly. Anybody else getting this? Tried the gsm fix to no avail.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
So let's be clear - you're using this on a GSM carrier? Which carrier are you using this on?

Have you clean flashed at all?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] phantomsniper773:
The problem has to do with this commit I think. If I recall correctly, when I was on CM10.2, it worked fine with whatever nightly was out before that commit. Once I updated to the nightly with that commit, I remember everything started stuttering on-screen. I'm glad I'm not the only one with the issue, as this is the first time I've seen anyone bring it up on XDA.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
You should report it to CM then. I'm surprised they haven't fixed it by now, its been well over a month. Is it just for XT907 or is it across multiple devices?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] hackeruti:
No I'm on Verizon USA (CDMA). I tried the gsmfix for sheets and giggles and no change.

Dirty flashed and clean flashed. Both were the same result.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
Why would you flash a GSM package if you are rocking Verizon?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
This is what I am wondering myself...

Well, I am on a different carrier (Sprint), but I do not get FC's on phone. Is there anything you are doing to induce the FC, or does it just "happen" after boot? (IE do you have to make a call, etc).

Also, if you have FC's - logcat. Of course, clean flash too but you have tried this.

Is anyone else experiencing FC's on phone (and are on CDMA?) What date does it start, I think the 22nd was stated as the time where the issue began? So nightly pre-Oct22, works fine?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] lukkypuggy:
Oct22 works fine, I used it the other day...
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] arrrghhh:
But anything after Oct22, you get FC's on phone? Do you have to use the phone (IE make a call) or do the FC's just "happen"?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] hackeruti:
I dunno Haha one guy suggested it to see if it could fix it. Guess not

UPDATE: today's build (10/28) works now! So weird with the FC's.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] phantomsniper773:
I don't wanna get too far off-topic, but I'm actually not sure if it affects the other devices. I'm not really sure how to go about letting CM know, since posting bug reports for nightlies is forbidden iirc.
