[Verizon LG G2] CarbonROM:
G2 Dropped from Support

Unfortunately the G2 has been dropped from support by the Carbon Team. For more information, please see this article:

https://carbonrom.org/carbon-news-842014/

We wish you the best of luck on your future Android adventures :)
[Verizon LG G2] ars0n:
Thanks for all the work gang!!
[Verizon LG G2] 93fuelslut:
Is there even root and development for the g3?

After reading the article of bugs and everybody getting replacements, reminded me of how LG is ****ty. And even the voice command on their Bluetooth headset acts like a complete dumb b*tch

[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
What he said. It is lame that such a great and still cutting edge phone is being shut out of the fun, especially when you look at all the supported devices, some that are over a few years old. It is what it is. bigshotrob certainly put his lumps in with this device.

I'm not going to make the same mistake with the G3 that I made with this phone though. It could take the same convoluted, problematic route as the G2 and in 6 months, bigshotrob will be all over the next great thing and the G3 will be relegated to the dust bin.

It is what it is.
[Verizon LG G2] R3Z3N:
Ah bummer. I think this is still one of the better phones out currently...
[Verizon LG G2] ars0n:
New build if anyone wants to play...

I wont be supporting issues...only builds...

Have you seen anything about us from Tim?

[Verizon LG G2] ars0n:
oops sorry gang missed your question, not sure if I am going to keep doing builds for a rom that no longer supports the phone. There are quite a few other roms in this forum that are running GREAT and have the same options if not more than carbon. Check em out and give them a try! If I see a major update/implement from carbon ill build it, but I have found a few roms that fix the redraw issue that carbon has never fixed... no turning back now..
[Verizon LG G2] Lawlrus:
What are you getting redraws from?

Sent from my Vs980 running Omni 4.4.4
[Verizon LG G2] ars0n:
low wifi connection signal + low phone signal = constant redraws with nova...coulda have been novas issue as well...but using the same backup from before and no issues..
[Verizon LG G2] Lawlrus:
Its not your launcher. Pretty much anything based on dr87's Mahdi branch will not give you redraws.

Aicp, slimkat, Mahdi, this soon to be omni release I'm testing, and for whatever reason spirit ROM.

Are there any other AOSP roms that are still being developed for our phone that I could flash over this?
[Verizon LG G2] HueyT:
Tons: Liquid, Deviant, AICP, CM11, SlimKat, Vanir/Commotio, Spirit, ParanoidAndroid (unofficial), Carbon (unofficial), Omni, crDroid, Beanstalk, MIUI 4.9.12 (AOSP based = WS008, Stock based = gtbluesky), others by Deliberate Dev, others by Amit_sen Dev, and more. :good:
[Verizon LG G2] nFKT:
I moved to ParanoidAndroid from CarbonROM and it seems remarkably faster for one.
[Verizon LG G2] ithrewitontheground:
Did you dirty flash or do a regular flash?
[Verizon LG G2] nFKT:
regular
[Verizon LG G2] revolt1:
When changing roms don't be lazy and flash over .you'll bootloop it only takes 20min to do all when using titanium back up to restore apps only
[Verizon LG G2] jrc27:
Yeah, it seems like the last few nightlies have caused me lock-ups. 2/20 did like 10 minutes after flashing.
[Verizon LG G2] flyinj54:
Just to post an update I turned off knock on last night after the sod and haven't had one since. I'll post an update later after I get some more time without it on.

Edit: Sod with knock on disabled as well. Doesn't seem to make any difference for me. Well there goes that theory lol
[Verizon LG G2] bsems1000:
Just downloaded. Off of a clean wipe. And I cannot swipe. Every time I do, it force closes and/or locks the keyboard.

I also experienced two random reboots. I'm unsure of what the problem is..
[Verizon LG G2] flyinj54:
I've done a little research and on the droid RAZR m (obviously a whole different animal) suffered from sod`s which some users fixed with disabling mp-decision hotplug. Trying that now. I'll post updates.
[Verizon LG G2] bsems1000:
Can anyone else swipe w/ no error?
[Verizon LG G2] imucarmen:
im on the feb 18th build and have no issues. Havent even had any reboots or SODS since flashing it a few days ago. I using dr87 v5 kernel
[Verizon LG G2] :
Anyone notice the light sensor doesn't provide values that match the standard auto adjust values? In bright sunlight mine only reports 300-400lux occasionally it spikes to 600

Seems it should be much higher.

Edit:

Actually, nvm... it's getting up over 1000 now. Maybe it's just not as sensitive on the lower end as I'm used to.
[Verizon LG G2] snake2332:
Does anyone know a way to download Carbon ROMs with an Android browser? I've tried 5 different ones and the downloads sit at 0% for a long time and eventually fail. The stock browser actually crashes when the download attempts to start. It's been like this for weeks. I guess I'll just download with PC but it's kind of funny that CarbonRom can't download new CarbonRoms, haha.
[Verizon LG G2] 55Pegasus:
I've been using Firefox without any problems.

Edit: request desktop site.
[Verizon LG G2] kenbrownstone:
Mine has been doing it to for weeks.. I use fire fox but request desktop view and turn ur phone in landscape mode and then try it. Stock browser ain't worked for me in a month always force closes.
[Verizon LG G2] r_dub:
Has halo notification been added to this ROM? As of last time I ran carbon for the g2 they were reviewing the code but hadn't yet integrated it. It's listed under carbon features but nothing in the change log suggests it's been added for G2.
[Verizon LG G2] imucarmen:
I don't think so but I'm still on the build from the 18th.

speaking of being on the build from the 18th I'm staying on it until it reboots or I get an SOD. I've been almost 90 hours so far. Only two bugs I've noticed consistently is even though I don't use auto brightness it changes on its own sometimes after turning the screen on and the volume won't turn up or down when using a media app like play music or Pandora but closing the app and reopening it fixes it.
[Verizon LG G2] R3Z3N:
^Agreed, the Feb 18th build has been one of the more stable builds for me so far out of the handful of KK roms I have tried. Still get a few SODs but usually when active notifications are on with activate out of pocket and I push the power button in anticipation.
[Verizon LG G2] Gutsyslap1:
Has anybody seen issues with text messaging at all? I am able to receive SMS using hangouts or the stock messaging app without issue but I cant send. I have tried rebooting, using other phones (work phone is an iphone) and nothing else is having issues so I dont believe its network related. Also had a co-worker with a rooted g2 running greendevils rom test his outgoing and incoming sms and he isn't having issues either. Any thoughts? Im running build 2/23.
[Verizon LG G2] snake2332:
Ahh thank you. I had tried 4 other browsers but not ffox.
[Verizon LG G2] imucarmen:
I'm at 145 hours of uptime on the feb 18 build. I'm not going to flash anything new until I get a reboot or SOD so this may take awhile. I almost want an issue so I can flash a new rom but I'm going to wait ths one out :D

Only really annoying issue is the volume not working in pandora. Today At work I was playing pandora and the volume was too loud but wouldn't turn down. I reset the app and cleared app data but couldnt get it to work right. eventually I gave up. Still a great rom though...
[Verizon LG G2] tacosrdelicioso:
145... damn
[Verizon LG G2] :
I've noticed that pandora did this as well. I found that using viper and starting pandora with the media volume at something other than 0 seems to alleviate it
[Verizon LG G2] imucarmen:
I ended up getting 170 something hours before it rebooted. The thing was though I had just the night before switched to tsf shell after only running the stock Google launcher since I flashed and in the morning I took the charger out the phone and it rebooted. It could have been a coincidence but the timing makes me wonder.
[Verizon LG G2] 93fuelslut:
How the hell do I download this ROM? Lol.

I click on the latest nightly and then it goes blank
[Verizon LG G2] Lawlrus:
Request desktop mode and spin the phone so it is in landscape

fresh install had a hard reset that deleted all my apps and made me start over. Another issue I'm having is I am missing my calendar does anyone else have this issue.

[Verizon LG G2] symyn:
Aside from the one random hard reset and the calendar missing (found a widget in Play that fixed this issue) this is the most stable 4.4 rom I have used. I would highly recommend it.
[Verizon LG G2] imucarmen:
I have very low speakerphone on the latest build but i was using dr87 v5 kernel sao cant say the bug is present on full stock. I don't have this issue on other 4.4.2 roms or in earlier builds and I always flash dr87's kernel.
[Verizon LG G2] annoyingduck:
Awesome latest build...I love this phone coming from the S3 and Carbon is a clear standout among the aosp builds...Thank you

On a side note, on all recent builds (all roms) the "me" quick tile refuses to display my Google photo. It appears in my contacts, call logs, and texts just not in the quick tile. Anyone have any clue what causing this??
[Verizon LG G2] synaptic13:
Sick rom as always... Curious if anyone else has had multiple reboots with active notifications on?
[Verizon LG G2] TexasRules777:
Haven't had any yet. I did have some freeze ups after the initial install ( yesterday) but after a day to settle it's working fine. Does anyone know how to change the lock screen widgets? There's so many tweaks with this ROM it seems likely I missed the setting.:confused:

Weird that it's working for you and not for me.

Oh, and one more thing: The AOSP camera app won't recognize my main camera, yet the front facing camera works just fine.
[Verizon LG G2] m_s_ifland:
Why are we not getting the nightlies?
[Verizon LG G2] TexasRules777:
The last few nightlies have been borked when made. Something to do with commits from the cm side. Hasn't been a new one since the 2nd. Hopefully it will be fixed soon!
[Verizon LG G2] m_s_ifland:
Thanks for the info.
[Verizon LG G2] symyn:
I have been on 2/28 and it is super stable. I haven't had one SOD or reset which is to be commended. I am going to stay on this build probably for the next month or so.
[Verizon LG G2] stetsonaw:
Good to know, I'm on 2/25 and get 1-3 SOD and reset a day.

---------- Post added at 02:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:57 PM ----------

This is fixed in the commits and changelog for nightly 3/3, once the buildbot starts working again, it will be taken care of. Funnily enough, my wife's S3, my 2013 N7 and my G2 are all on the 2/25 build and have a working me tile icon. BUT, i have an abundance of SOD and reboots on my G2, so.... i guess I should move on to the 3/2 build.

Been running 2-28 now for 30+ hours with no issues whatsoever. Feels good to not have sods on aosp rom. Thanks again for posting your find.
[Verizon LG G2] symyn:
No doubt. I used to have a phobia about powering on my phone and thinking it is locked up... Seriously best 4.4 ROM out there.
[Verizon LG G2] flyinj54:
Just a quick update. Still running 2-28 build since 3/6 and haven't had a single sod or freeze. I think people who love aosp and have a vs980 need to switch to this build. Also I wonder if kernel developers should have a look at the 2/28 kernel to see what's fixed the sod issues on this device.
[Verizon LG G2] 93fuelslut:
I agree. But the xpsode module "xblast" is what triggers the sod's and freezes. But without that module, I'm running smooth

Can anyone tell me how to make chronus as my lock screen widget ? I have the settings set up in the ROM control settings but can't figure how to make it a lock screen widget to apply

[Verizon LG G2] TexasRules777:
You have to go to settings/security then choose enable widgets to lock screen. Then on your lock screen swipe right...add chronus...etc. It took me forever to find the widgets setting under security.

After it finally finished downloading. The 2-28 nightly sod within 3 hours of flashing...: (
[Verizon LG G2] solidhadriel:
I have 2 major issues with this rom:

- AOSP Keyboard is constantly crashing

- Overall volume is EXTREMELY quiet on loudest settings.

-- Edit: Downloaded and installed Viper4Android per recommendation from someone in this thread. Using headphones, there's a noticeable improvement in audio quality with headphones. Will report back how it sounds in the car (which is where it really matters...)

I've tried volume boosters for the second problem and none of them work. Anyone else experience these and have a fix? I'm running the March 2nd nightly.

One minor issue:

- After the phone battery drained and the phone powered off. Upon charging the phone, the battery indicator stayed at 0%. As soon as I disconnected the phone, the phone shut off. Upon turning the phone back on, the battery indicator showed the correct status. (Scared me at first, lol)
[Verizon LG G2] flyinj54:
Hmm any mods? Stock kernel? Been running since 3-6 without any sods. Never been able to do that on any other kkrom.

Looks like nightly builds are back and rolling. 3-10 up now

[Verizon LG G2] greydelta38:
CarbonDev, I want to reach out and say a huge THANK YOU for this rom. I came from several other KK roms (that will be unnamed) that were plagued with SOD's left and right and freezes just by opening apps, and I didn't change anything from what anything original was set at! BIG NAME roms. I got so frustrated with the issues I almost got rid of my G2. But, I switched to Carbon and it's been 2 solid days with not a single freeze, not a single reboot, not a single sod, and NO lag whatsoever. Whatever you did to CM's kernel, you did it right.

So thank you, for Carbon. Thank you for taking the time to work out the issues, the nitpicky problems, the major bugs, and for not being tempted to release a barely nightly rom just for the sake of having a name out there. Carbon 4.3 was a masterpiece, and Carbon 4.4 is absolutely no different. Developing, to me, is exactly like building a motor; do it right, it'll treat you right. Half ass it, and it'll blow up. And you've done some damn fine work.

Keep doing what you're doing, and I'll keep giving support.:good::good::good:
[Verizon LG G2] symyn:
I have to echo these thoughts. Well said.
[Verizon LG G2] greydelta38:
Of course as soon as I say good things I have issues lol. Nothing big though.

Whenever I try to receive an MMS I get a toast message saying something along the lines of "The device's APN is not connected". All my other messaging features work fine just MMS doesn't.
[Verizon LG G2] symyn:
I have been using hangouts for messaging. it works very well and I have not had an issue.
[Verizon LG G2] solidhadriel:
Alright - update on my issues:

- I've had the phone randomly turn off about 5 times now in the past 48 hours.

- Viper4Android does NOT work with aux cable - so the low volume issue is still an issue

- Any type of texting is broken when using the swipe letters method for creating words

I can live with the other issues, but does ANYONE have a fix for the low volume this rom produces? I really, REALLY would like to stay on this rom but haven't found a fix yet. :(
[Verizon LG G2] Azeolus:
No, the widget that you can place on the home/lock screen.
[Verizon LG G2] roor1337:
I too want to give a shout out to CarbonDEV for this ROM. I used an older carbon ROM that gave me sods and other small problems so I switched to Mahdi to give that a try. still got sods and the most annoying problem for me was random reboots during a call. in a 15 minute call I could get 3 reboots, so that got old and annoying real fast (there were many times I wish i could just smash my phone). I tried various versions with various kernels with no luck. I thought I give carbon another go after looking at some reviews. I flashed the 3/01 but still got some sod and reboots during phone calls but no where near as much. I saw that 2/28 should give a much more stable platform so I used that one. With the stock kernel (tried furnace and AOSP 4.4.2 - unstable and some loss of features), this rom has been the best. I went from worrying about dropped call reboots and sods to an almost "normal" phone.

Pros (version 2.28)

- maybe one or two sods or in-call reboots compared to 3-7+ a day (although there are some minor bugs/workarounds)

- sound works properly in all apps!!! (big fix for me)

- good amount of customization (I use gravity box for a couple additional small tweaks)

- runs ART and xposed flawlessly despite reported lack of support/not fully working

- Its a good build. If your having problems and are running a 12b i definitely recommend giving this rom a try

Cons

- volume is still low (volume always seems kinda low but modding mixer_path.xml fixes this)

- screen lags out for awhile (maybe 30 seconds - 1 minute [kind of annoying])

- sometimes the volume circle, when adjusting, leaves a "ghost" circle image of where it originally started from

- GPS still wonky. [Anyone know any possible fixes?]

I flashed using twrp 2.6.3.3 using the latest gapps and supersu. I then installed and set up all the xposed framework and modules. After that i switched the runtime over to ART, rebooted, then continued to install apps and customize it

VS98012B
[Verizon LG G2] solidhadriel:
I couldn't get the volume issue figured out and got another 2 SODs after my last post.

Going back to Malladus...
