Depending on your recovery, you need to make a full backup first of your working ROM, then format everything for a clean install, format everything except your external sd card where you'll keep the new ROM files, so if your using TWRP, go into wipe, advanced wipe, select everything except your external sd, if your using CWM go into format, wipe data, cache, factory reset, advanced menu, format sdcard data, format system, then install zip from external sdcard, and I recommend after you make a backup of your current working ROM make sure it's backed up on your computer and your external sdcard, just in case if you mess up you can restore.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] krige:
Thanks! I have always used CWM, never heard of the other one before. I have done all the other steps you mentioned but this step, I thought it was harmful. So this must be the key one through which we can achieve a real clean phone wiping. I'll try next time.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kamikaze702k:
I use CWM also, it's not harmful, it's the only way I found to achieve a full clean install, esp when your coming from one ROM to another, it deletes all files created into your system and internal storage, so basically you start fresh with no residue left over from previous ROM :)

Enjoy :)

I've recently flashed a nightly build (from the 25th I guess) and I'm pretty sure that somehow I'm getting better battery life than when I was on a nightly build from the beginning of the month. I also noticed that PIE is back. So thanks for the great job and the improvements. :)

I still don't get why WhatsApp crashes when I try to upload a video. Does this happen on stock KK too? On every device?

As for Kernels, personally I choose it according to the battery life I can get. I don't know how much it really affects the battery life when you don't really mod anything, though. I've been using Boeffla Omnia Kernel for a while and I think it improves that. But I don't have enough patience to really test it with screenshots and stuff. I guess it's a matter of trying out until you feel comfy with a kernel after some testing. But you have to flash one that's compatible with the ROM (i

.e. CM or AOSP) otherwise you might end up with a bootloop. (so bear in mind that the Boeffla Kernel has many versions, for example, and only the Omnia version works with this ROM).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] krige:
What if I don't have an external SD card? I suppose I'll have to copy the ROM files through adb, is that right?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] grungemann:
use airdroid.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] krige:
You mean Airdroid the app? Don't you need Android already installed and running to use it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] grungemann:
hehe.. my bad..sorry.. i think you can mount usb in cwm.. at least you can access the external card.. otherwise, adb is the logical solution.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] krige:
So, I managed to complete all the steps, wiped everything, formatted sdcard and system, I then copied the zips through adb, flashed them and finally successfully boot into a working CarbonROM.

Now after all the wiping and formatting I still got my old custom wallpaper from before the flashing set by default! How could this happen?!

Is anyone able to edit the pulse length and speed LED settings with 20140603?

Settings > display & lights > battery light.

The speed and pulse length are greyed out and stuck on custom.

Disabling all led notification options in boeffla kernel doesn't change anything for me.

I did a wipe/factory reset before installing a fresh 20140603 and immediately after it booted the first time i went to that option and it was 'custom' and greyed out.

Omnirom 4.4.3 :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
I have reverted back to 26052014, I notice that all release thereafter were a little unstable and drained the battery even whilst sleeping, a good 20% power loss compared to normal sleep operation.

This build to be fair, could be optimal for the end of 4.4.2, albeit the video record button, my god I hope someone solves that one day!

What about todays android 4.4.3 nightly did you try that out ;)

Does anyone know if it fine staying in the same gapps or i should flash a new 4.4.3 gapps package.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ktmbikerman:
I think its best to use 4.4.3 gapps... I tried temasek's 4.4.3 build while waiting for this one, and downloaded banks 4.4.3 gapps.

Looking forward to flashing 090614 :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
I flashed the latest carbon nightly (4.4.3) and banks minimal gapps 4.4.3 and boeffla kernel beta 6 (Omni version) though im not sure if I should flash the CM version of the kernel. anyways all seems to be running great for the past hour :good::good::good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Frag1le:
clean or dirty flash?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
Dirty flash and all is working great
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
Yes! Dirty flash fine.

There is more good news to as well! For those who suffered with the long standing video record button breaking after a few uses, this is almost sorted now as rather than failing to record the camera will crash instead and then a relaunch of the camera fixes the issue. Not perfect but it does mean you can now use boeffla kernels without camfix and enjoy a little zRam once more!

I just installed 20140609 and was presented with the Omnirom fixed camera after the first boot on 4.4.3.

So i removed the Omnirom camera with Titanium Backup, flashed 20140609 again and after a reboot i was missing the camera.

20140609 doesn't contain the CarbonRom stock camera?

Or am i overlooking something?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
I "think" you have to flash google apps to get camera back, i think :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Frag1le:
I just flashed the gapps i used the first time I freshly installed CarbonRom and it didn't install a camera. Also the camera is AOSP not something I would expect in a gapps pack. But I could be wrong.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
Intrigued to know the outcome!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] The Remedy:
I hope your downloading a 4.4.3 signed gapps and not a 4.4.2 signed one .
[Galaxy S III Android Development] georgedao123:
I used the PA GApps 0531. It works fine.

---------- Post added at 11:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:20 AM ----------

The full GApps will remove AOSP Launcher, Messaging and AOSP/Carbon camera and replace them with Google's apps. Unless you flash the minimal GApps, you won't be seeing these AOSP apps.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ktmbikerman:
I also only have the Google Camera... I did a system wipe and reinstalled 090614, Boeffla2.3b6 and 6-2 Banks Gapps Standard. I suspect Banks Gapps removes the Carbon Camera.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
Banks standard gapps does. Banks minimal doesnt. I have minimal gapps and i have both cameras installed vD
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Frag1le:
When i previously had a custom camera and dirtyflashed a new nightly, the custom camera was always overwritten with the CarbonRom stock camera.

I flashed a minimal gapps for 4.4.2 and banks 4.4.3 gapps minimal to see if would affect the camera not being installed.

Perhaps this has something to do with the persistence options?

Anyway i'll try and see if 0610 has the camera and if not i'm going to do a complete fresh installation (without installing any gapps) and if that doesn't contain the camera i'll report it here.

Update: a fresh installation has the CarbonRom stock camera, but a dirty flash doesn't replace the custom camera.

I even tried a dirty flash with 'Enable Persistence' disabled in Carbon Fibers, but i guess that only works for LCD density and Hosts file.

I just tried high framerate mode in the camera. Selected 60fps and tried 1080p/720p/480p but with all those resolutions I'm getting the error that the resolution is to high. This is with nightly 0614.

I never tried this option with previous releases so my question is: does this highframerate even work on the i9300?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
I like it, really handy if someone keeps sending messages and you don't want to jump out each time. Plus, long press in recent apps to select a app to hover on demand is nice, would be great to have a persistence for that for favorite apps, as the only issue is it has to have run once and not be cleared to be selectable.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
yes but the thing is, i want if i touch somewhere om the screen that the hover notification hides. this doesnt happen and the hover notification stays showing for atleast 3-4 seconds no matter what i touch on the screen except if i hit the back button...

if this can be fixed it might be less intrusive and annoying and more useful
[Galaxy S III Android Development] miketino:
before carbon I was using PA, at that time I thought peek was useless so never used it, but on carbon it's one of my favourite things.

I think hover on carbon is more useful that on PA because of the lockscreen notifications on carbon, so immersive mode can be used with hover and lockscreen notifications

Flash rom one more time and you should be good to go.

If not, wipe system partition before flash.

TaPaTaLkEd from Galaxy SIII
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cKenny:
if this is the first time you switch on ART, take note of following

1) Only switch to ART with Carbon kernel. Once you switch over, you can then flash other kernel that support Carbon.

2) If you face FC problem, reflash ROM to have default kernel back and this should fix the FC problem.

3) If (2) doesn't fix the FC, wipe everything and reflash rom, flash custom kernel only after you switch to ART and reboot your phone at least once.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ayoubij:
ok ill try tomorrow when i flash the new nightly with stock kernel ART.

Ya, i'm using ART since 4.4.2 and it is working fine for me. Btw take note that when you switch to ART for the first time, it will reboot your phone to convert from dalvik runtime to ART runtime, and that take a few minutes, just be patient and wait it to finish up

Nightly 6-17-2014

Fixes for Peek

Fixes to DocumentsUI

Added Non-Intrusive CallUI from Slim

Call notification shows up in statusbar and does not freeze currently running app

Reverted Omni’s “non-intrusive” CallUI

Added ability to move apps to external storage on GS3’s, GS4’s, and moto’s

[MENTION=5197177]CarbonDev[/MENTION]

On my side I would prefer (no request!) to have both possibilities (omni and slim) as they represent imo two different levels of intrusion:

1. slim: only notifies via status bar - lower intrusion level

2. omni: slides partially in at the bottom of the active app - higher intrusion level

3. default: incallui pops in front of the app filling the whole screen (active app freezes) - highest intrusion level
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Buckycasuals:
Carbon is a good rom, no doubt about it. I'm staying out for a while because of unstable camera, lack of focus, unable to set to AUTO.

I wonder why they haven't looked into the camera. Camera is one of the main thing i look for when flashing a rom.

I will looking at the changelog every now and then till fixes for camera pops up.

:fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] XDAMaxe:
you can use camera from neat-rom (aosp) which is excellent imo. Simply extract camera2.apk and the resp. libs from neatrom.zip and copy/replace those files into carbonrom.zip and flash as usual (or copy them into the correct folders of your phone, set correct permissions, reboot (maybe wipe cache+dalvik for sure) and you're done.

To make things easier I have attached all files you need (attention: this is no flashable zip). If you decide to copy the files into your phone then take care of the correct folders and permissions (644 or rw-r--r--) !
