I believe Team Carbon had one of their build bots crash a few days ago and currently don't have enough capacity to do nightlies for every official device. There were also some disruptions to nightlies for all roms which pull from CM caused by some rather drastic updates/changes in the graphics and Bluetooth stacks.

Also, Carbon has now added pie (from PA) and switched the quick toggles to CM (from AOKP), and I think they had some failed builds while the new code was being merged into the main tree. This have now stabilized and I will put out the update sometime tomorrow.

Running the 10-06 build. Is there any way to change the locksceen wallpaper separately from the home screen?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Jwoc12:
Is there any way to change the wall paper? Stuck on the green leaf.....
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
I've now updated the OP with new builds (20121012). These have pie controls (from Paranoid Android) and the AOKP quick tiles have been replaced by CM.

Unfortunately, the last change means you will lose your quick tiles customizations when you update, so don't be surprised by that.

HD (hummingbird)

HD+ (ovation)

CARBON-JB-UNOFFICIAL-20131012-1039-ovation.zip - 123.61 MB

At least on the latest build (20131012), you can go to settings -> carbon fibers -> lockscreen -> advanced -> background and change this.

If long press on the wallpaper in trebuchet (or whatever launcher you are using) does not work, you can go to settings -> display -> wallpaper. I confirmed this works on the new build (in case it didn't work before).

You can also use something like Image 2 Wallpaper to set the wallpaper without having to crop the image.

How is this running for people as compared to official CM10.2? Better or worse, and how so? How does the amount of lag compare? Elaboration appreciated. Thanks.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] dmsims:
I went from 10.1 on SD which was fast to 10.2 on EMMC which was really laggy (clean install)

Carbon is much better than 10.2 (If not quite as fast as 10.1 on SD)
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] YevOmega:
K. Thanks a lot. I'll give it a try. I find that Greenify really decreases the amount of lag for me. You can find it in google play.

Full screen video for some reason doesn't work using Firefox / flash or stock browser etc. Other video works fine...just occurs when I try to go full screen.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
Is this on the latest build (20131012)? I saw this happen in previous builds, but cannot reproduce it anymore so assumed it was fixed.

Can you send me a link to an example video where the full screen fails?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] kahuna028:
Can't seem to change the wallpaper, even through the display settings... Why does the default wallpaper have to ugly TT TT

EDIT: Been too quick to conclusions, changing the wallpaper works after a reboot

I'm still confused why camera is enabled on a non camera device?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] TonyBigs:
App compatibility, like Gallery? :confused:
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
Do you mean in the lock screen? There's an option to disable it in Carbon Fibers -> Lockscreen -> Camera widget.

I agree that this should be off by default, and thought I had already set it so but this must have changed at some point. I'll see if I can't disable it by default again.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] marscandybars:
but will lockscreens change when you toggle between multiple users?

Getting lots of app crashes on 10-12, chrome, feedly when going to web site, Firefox, keep closing. Going back to 10-2, can capture logs if wanted
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
Please do send the crash logs. You can send those to me by PM, and I will check the git logs to see which commit is causing this.

It must be something in the framework that Carbon has pulled from Cyanogenmod, as the device trees have not been updated for some time now.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] postulio:
Tried the ROM not bad but I kept getting glitches in the settings menu and since there's no tablet interface I'm sorry I won't be using it. Good luck and I'll be checking back in case things improve.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] stegg:
For me, everything works well, except carbon fibers: only the first tab I touch shows settings, so I have to go back and reenter into carbon fibers for each tab I want to see. Not a big problem tho.

Many thanks for your work! :)
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
The Carbon Fibers bug is also affecting the official Nexus 10 builds. There's also a nasty navbar bug which we avoided by taking advantage of our faulty orientation sensor. And of course no support for tablet UI.

I had a look at porting another ROM (Paranoid Android and Pac-Man) with better tablet support, but these have too many orientation issues to be usable. Unless someone wants to spend the time fixing these, I think for 4.3 we will only have Carbon, Cyanogenmod and SlimBean as options.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] lininjim:
I been using the stock browser and also Dolphin browser and both exhibit the same problem, they close after a short time. I open a link (from gmail or feedly) start to read and bang they close. No errors pop up or anything. Will go back a version to see if it still does. Shame, I think this is a great rom otherwise (for me).
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] tebra:
I use 10-12 release on my Nook HD+ and I don't have any FC with Firefox and Feedly.

Great rom
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] dbh369:
I reflashed and rebooted, seems to be not a problem anymore
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] bpaulien:
I'm really enjoying the SlimBean ROM that KillerSloth made (he got too busy to support it), but I'm still using it and it's super solid and fast. I'd love to see somebody supporting that and updating it occasionally.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] dbh369:
Ok, rebooting fixed this for me, but after a day of use, it was back. Couldn't even get logcat up and running. Will capture a log next time.

I'm seeing some Wi-Fi scanning issues suddenly, and sometimes need to reboot the device to make it scan for new Wi-Fi hotspots. Anyone else experiencing these?

I think these are the same that hit CM somewhere around October 07-09, but I wanted to confirm it's not just my device with the issues before I try to find the offending commit.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] king200:
This rom 1012 build HD/Hummingbird. CM 4.3 all after 1007 nightly Ovation and Hummingbird.

Speed very low or disconnect. In changelog, only I could find was something to do with removing SSID that aren't scanned.

Only a handful of comments regarding issue. I see no ongoing work on the problem. Happened to me on home network WEP, and also tethered to AT&T WPA. Other devices no problems.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
Thanks for narrowing down the date range. Looking at the full changelog, I think it's one or both of these two commits:

Revert "wifi: Get full scan results" -- d2f22f1796a7cbffb6607f4c43356cefd7002515

WifiSettings: Handle DISABLED_ASSOCIATION_REJECT. -- 6cc38924682f32c75a2593c17cba013c238c3941

I'll revert these and test before I put out the next build.

Wi-Fi Scanning

I've experienced this a couple of times.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] mr72:
I tried this ROM yesterday and finally this morning switched back to CM10.1.3. Got into a cycle where it would do nothing but reboot constantly, once it boots you run any app and instantly it reboots. ROM shows some promise if it can be made stable.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] king200:
I didn't see anything in the 1018 CM changelog that would indicate a change but I tried it anyway. The WiFi is slow/unreliable with today's build. Reverting back to 1007 and everything is fine.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
OK. I have not been able to track down the offending commit yet. I'll keep looking through the commit logs.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] dbh369:
Ditto here though it seems to be enough to go into airplane mode and back

---------- Post added at 12:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:18 AM ----------

Logcat captured when this started happening. Can't attach on mobile version will pm
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
I reverted a bunch of Wi-Fi commits merged into the framework by the Carbon team after October 7, and am now testing a build which seems to be working fine. I hope this resolves also these crashes you are seeing, not just the scanning issues.

I'll upload test builds for both devices later today, and would appreciate it if you guys can run these and let me know if there are any more Wi-Fi issues. If everything looks good, I will release a proper update early next week.

[edit:] It's still not properly seeing Wi-Fi APs come in and go out, even when I manually start a scan. I need to revert everything back to October 06 and then cherry pick just the additions we really want (mainly UI features) before I can put out a new build. Sorry guys.

[edit2:] OK, I finally managed to track down all the commits which were causing problems, and I think I have a fully working build now. Will upload ovation soon, hummingbird to follow as soon as the build is done.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
That should not happen. Did you wipe /data and install the correct gapps? Unfortunately, these steps are necessary when coming from any 4.2-based ROM.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] designori:
TY jisoo, it works greatly on my hd+.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] BJohnM:
OK to Dirty Flash?

Is it OK to dirty flash if already on Carbon (wiping caches of course)?

Thanks for the great work.

UPDATE: I went ahead and dirty flashed. All is well. Seems pretty solid. I did experience the wi-fi issue on the previous version, but it was intermittent. I have not experienced it since the update, but it was sporadic enough before that's hard to say it's definitely resolved...but so far, as is good.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] king200:
And it works great on HD as well. There were some FC messages about Carbon Fibers but it did seem to be working in the setting menu. It seems to occur on startup of rom.

Because this is the first time I'm keeping the rom up, I'm wondering where the info about some of the Halo and Carbon Fibers can be found.

I don't seem to have a Calendar. Calendar.apk is not in either the ROM or Gapps. CalendarProvider.apk is there.

I don't sync Calendar with Google account or Exchange. It is only synched locally with Outlook 2010 via My Phone Explorer. I did restore Calendar.apk and Calendar Storage from the CWM backup of the "CM10.2 Rom" and it works ok. Google Calendar Sync is frozen on my Nook too.

How do others get the Calendar? I must be missing something?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] tebra:
Google agenda from market works and sync for me.

Be sure to check your privacy settings for this app.

[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
You are right -- Calendar.apk is missing from my /system/apps as well.

However, I just checked the Carbon official builds for other devices, and they are also missing the Calendar.apk. It seems that the Carbon Team has decided -- for whatever reason -- to strip the AOSP calendar out of their ROM...

You can use the Calendar.apk from any CM-10.2 build if that's OK. The other option is for me to add it to the build but I'm not sure if that makes sense.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
No. This is a generic fast-charge tile, but the functionality will depend on what the kernel supports.

During my free time this week (which is not much), I'm trying to track down the fast-charge patch for our omap kernel and see if I can make the nook charge from my laptop USB.

But at this moment, the tile does not unfortunately do anything useful for our devices.

[edit:] I've done some more research and don't think I will include fast-charge on the kernel level. If you read through the discussion when this feature was proposed in CyanogenMod (http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/17802/), it's pretty clear that there are significant risks involved.

The tile will remain in the ROM, but I won't enable kernel support for this feature to stay on the safe side.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
multi-window

Here's something which may be of interest to someone. I've applied the multi-window patches from Omnirom to the latest Carbon build and have put up a build up on dev-host:

mw-CARBON-JB-UNOFFICIAL-20131022-1009-ovation.zip - 123.70 MB

For those who are wondering what this is, I hope the two screenshots below explain everything.

To start using this, you need to open recent apps, long-press the app you want to add to split view, and select "add to split view". Rotation works but if you see glitches, turning the screen off and on seems to force a refresh. Some apps do not work well in split view, Google+ being one of them.

This feature is very much a work-in-progress for everyone involved, so don't blame me if it doesn't work 100% of the time.

This build is for ovation only, but if any hummingbird users want to try, I can put up a build for them as well.

Portrait mode:

Landscape mode:
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] tebra:
Thank you for adding multi-window to carbon rom. I'm very interested but will wait for a stable release with this feature.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] king200:
YouTube is not working with latest Hummingbird build.

I read early on in this thread that Youtube was a problem but didn't know if it was fixed. I did try changing dpi from 240 to 320 but that didn't help. When I started up with 320 dpi, got message that Youtube crashed. That was strange because I didn't know it ran at startup.

When doing the restart from the change resolution menus, shutdown restart goes to recovery and not just restart.

Using HD/Hummingbird

Edit: Used an old version of YouTube 3.5.5 an it works! I think it is from about June 2012.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Rycon33:
Hi guys, it's been a long time that I haven't touched my Nook HD+. Now, I flashed this recent carbon build, but the launcher and animations are quite laggy. It was the same as before when I tried CM last time but I'm wondering if it has a workaround now to have a smooth UI animation.

Tapatalked from my Nook HD+
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] famewolf:
Does Multiwindow have a way to EXIT multiwindow after you enable it? It didn't in some of the early omnirom builds.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jeromejones:
Great work jisoo. Im downloading rom now. I came from a CM10.1 build and all my videos looked crappy such as youtube mx player etc. I figure this was because hw acceleration was not implemented in the rom. Does this rom have hw acceleration? Also is it possible to overclock this, looking to OC to 1.5 Ghz. Thanks
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
Looking through the full patch, there's a following comment in RecentsPanelView.java:

I presume this means that if you just click on the thumbnail from recent apps, that app will not be in multiwindow mode anymore.

You should be aware that the system sets a multiwindow flag to any app you choose through "add to split view" and this flag persists at least until a reboot.

Therefore, if you don't want an app to show up in split view, you need to explicitly choose it from recent apps to unset the flag.

I would test this myself but am having boot problems with my device right now...

[edit:] yes, confirmed this work. Once an app is set to split-view, it will stay that way until you choose it directly from recent apps,
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] agantai:
can someone please tell me what is the difference between HD+ ovation & HD+ Nightly ? the ovation seems to be 50 or 60mb's smaller in size ? which is better for my nook hd+ & why ? thanks
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
I am assuming by "HD+ nightly" you mean the CM builds at http://get.cm/?device=ovation? The builds in this thread are for Carbon ROM, which is a fork of CM and other open-source Android variants.

I'm not going to make a judgment on which one is better. Instead, I would suggest you try both and see which one works for you.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
HW acceleration (for video decoding) is enabled here same way as in CM-10.2. My understanding is that the CM team put in some work to improve the decoding over what the AOSP sources provided, so that's why you may have had problems in CM-10.1. But nowadays, hw-accelerated video decoding should work fine on CM and Carbon.

The kernel does not support OC I think, because it is the same kernel as in CM-10.2.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] agantai:
yes it's one from the link you posted,can you please tell me if i need to flash a kernel after installing a ROM as i have did few installs on my devices but never flashed a kernel but people in the threads seem to be talking about kernels. to be honest i don't even know what kernels are for & the instructions for ROM installation only talk about installing gapps afterwards they don't say install kernel or anything else.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
The kernel is the core of the Android system. It is loaded first (after the bootloader is done) and controls everything. Trying to run an OS without a kernel is like a human without a brain and heart.

The kernel is included in the ROM, so you don't need to flash that separately. It's all installed at the same time.

After flashing the ROM, you probably want to install gapps (Google Apps) if you want to have access to your Google accounts and the Google Play Store.

Please keep in mind that if you are coming from another ROM (or stock), you most likely have to wipe /data, which means you will lose all your apps and settings -- unless you backup and restore using something like Titanium Backup or Helium.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] agantai:
a brilliant reply,now i know. thanks very much :good:
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] agantai:
i forgot to ask, they're releasing new updated ROM almost every other day but no explanation to what's been updated,is there anyway i can find out this info ?

http://get.cm/?device=ovation

my ROM is 1021 which i installed less than 2 days ago & there is new one already.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
Usually there are not many changes between the nightlies, and I don't think anyone at CM is writing up changelogs. You can look at http://changelog.bbqdroid.org/#/ovation/next to see all the new commits (source code changes) that have gone into a nightly build, but these are fairly technical.

It's really only the changes in android_frameworks_base that have an impact on the UI, and these are nowadays mostly bug fixes for a mature ROM like CM (which is not looking to add many new features anymore).
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] agantai:
thanks again jisoo :good: you are :cool: guy.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] ms2003:
seems wi-fi still have some problems, i can't see my network at all yesterday, but other network can be seen. after reboot is ok
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
I'm also seeing some Wi-Fi issues though not nearly as bad as the previous build. Toggling airplane mode on and off fixes them faster than a reboot. There's one Wi-Fi-related commit I did not revert for the last build which may be causing these. I'll revert this one as well in the next build.

Regarding the next update, I will build one in the next 2-3 days. There have been very few new commits so this build will mainly have some fixes for Active Display and transparency settings, not much else (which is why I have not been in a hurry to update yet).

Unfortunately, there have been no additional work on multi-window feature, so whatever bugs there are will remain. I will put up a separate build with multi-window feature enabled after I've updated the "normal" builds.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] king200:
I installed Carbon Rom on my HD+ 32gb. I was using CRom on an HD 8gb and wanted to clone that. I flashed CARBON-JB-UNOFFICIAL-20131020-1819-ovation.zip and Gapps. I then did a CWM advanced restore using the backup from the HD. It seems to be working perfectly. I found you have to boot the rom and gapps and then go back into CWM and restore the data.

Anticipated WiFi problems because the MAC address might be cloned but that didn't happen. Only problem was where apps were configured to store their media. My photos, books, and music are on different locations on the 2 devices.

I also recommend installing SuperSU. It helps with TiBU but also for other apps that are looking for ext_sdcard or sdcard.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
OK, the new builds for 10-29 are up now in the first post. There's really only some bug fixes for Active Display included, so I don't know if it's really worth updating for everyone.

I did revert the one last Wi-Fi commit from 10-07 which involved downloading GPS data through Wi-Fi (CM Long Term Orbits). I did a quick test with my phone as a hotspot, and it seems that the wireless APs now refresh properly. But it would need a few more days of testing to know if it really helps.

I will do the multi-window builds a bit later this week.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] starbright_:
Regarding Wifi:

In CM10.2 any WIFI scanner (for instance Wifi Analiyzer) doesn't show any net. Is this solved in Carbon?

Is this an issue that the apps are not compatible with 4.3 ?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jisoo:
I believe this is caused by some Wi-Fi commits that were introduced around October 7 to both CM and Carbon. The last two builds for Carbon in this thread have those commits reverted and Wi-Fi should be working fully.

[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Nos0x:
So far I've tried CM 10.x and CarbonRom. Both (for me) exhibit the same issues with wifi. Both seem to get a much weaker signal strength than stock rom, areas of the house where previously I'd get full signal I now get none, and at work it's the same.
