Did you know any other app to change or tweak it?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] amealwithlargefries:
This rom is very fantastic. I recently flashed to this from slim bean because this rom seemed to be one of the more stable roms that includes CM's theme engine (I despise HK themer for not being able to support CM11 themes. Im currently on the 10-12 nighty and everything seems to be in order (Bluetooth, GPS, and everything else works).

Then I finally proceeded with restoring my apps and applying my theme, then the problem came when I started using the camera. The default camera app works fine (video, and panorama, and effects all work) until I open camera 360. When I open camera 360, the app would immediately force close, after camera 360 FCs, the default camera app would also start FCing until I restart the phone.

Upon thorough troubleshooting, I've discover that the problem would only surface once you apply an icon theme with the theme engine (But If you apply the icon theme with the exposed framework, the app will work just fine).

I hope this info could be of some use when making fixing future build. Thanks for the fantastic ROM.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] juggalo818:
hello i came to this rom from a bunch of other roms thinking that its more stable but i got a few problems that have not gone away and maybe some one can help me out , first the phone turns off and "tries to reboot" tries to because it takes 10 times longer to restart even if i get a call ,also now when i just use the camera it reboots or takes real bad pictures with lines or blurs it also now gets hot like real hot ... i was thinking of flashing to stock and starting over but i have done a full wipe and flash i have even formatted the system ect in mounts and also my sd card any one have a idea?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] EXV:
Had this too (clock app wouldn't work). I just applied the stock theme, reapplied the icon theme I chose, restarted and all was fine. Haven't had any problems since I did that.

Anyone getting tons of RR on the latest nightly? Not sure if its because I flashed lean kernel or just the ROM itself.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mp3deviant721:
That maybe LeanKernel, I was having RRs on 9/25 with LK 9.15... Get a last_kmsg and post it in the LeanKernel thread... I wanna compare yours with mine to see if we could be having the same issue.

Recommend kernel and link please thanks
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
I didn't have any RR with Carbon 9/25 + LK9.15, but maybe it depends on what one uses (features and apps).

However, I did have annoying audio trouble in-call (receiving calls no microphone), since going back to stock CM kernel that issue is no longer. I still do have annoying audio volume issues in-call tho, like the volume buttons don't work correctly in-call at first use, been having that problem for a very long time.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] EXV:
Didn't have issues with the 09/25 nightly, it came from the 10/12 nightly. Went back to the 09/25 nightly but decided to stick with the stock kernel for now.

Any issues with the latest nightly?

Edit - asked because I needed to install it on my brother's phone but I didn't have the time to try it on mine first to test it out (he's not knowledgeable about flashing anything). Decided to try it out since the Heads Up notifications now allow for background colors.

I'm using carbon 20141012 and now my wifi won't connect automatically. It won't connect even if I manually try to connect it. It won't connect unless I reboot my phone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
I didn't have this problem on Carbon 10/12, can you upgrade to 10/16 and see if it persists? remember to wipe Dalvik/Cache after flashing.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nataku199:
Yeah I'll give it a shot. I really want to do a clean flash but I don't know if I feel like going through all that.

---------- Post added at 03:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:16 PM ----------

so far so good. I turned the wifi off and back one and it automatically connected. I walked up the street, let it disconnect, came back and it reconnected so maybe that was the trick. Now to get this pesky BT to work right...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
Carbon 10/20 released, seems to be working fine here, flashed it in morning.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] vibrant2011:
Hello, first of thank you for a great ROM. I do not have any issues, it runs very smooth. My question is about WIFI. It seems that I get a low/weak signal, when other devices get full signal on the same WIFI. Has anyone experienced this as well?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
Since I switched my home router to 5GHz band I see weaker range, and I mean really short like 30ft through walls, but always thought it's my router (old Linksys E2000 running tomato firmware), never bothered me much tho. On 2.4GHz bandwidth the range is not a problem for me, that's how I use WiFi on phone at work, and it works great.

Also, today I had a RR on Carbon 10/20 while refreshing Carbon downloads page in Chrome browser. Updated to 10/23 now, sticking to CM kernel for now here (since a while back actually).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] totbl:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] vibrant2011:

God I love this ROM. So perfect.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
I like it too very much, pretty much flawless for me, save for slight audio volume issues in-call (too loud at first and need to awkwardly press volume up to make it lower, kind of weird).

BTW, new Carbon 10/26 is up! :) so far no issues.

Wake Locks

This has been going on for a long time, and I have been ignoring it, but its killing my battery. Every few mins my phone wakes up to the Lock Screen, then goes back to sleep again.. it has been like this for many nightlies so many I can not count.. I wish I knew what caused the Wake locks so I could prevent them... No other Rom does this...

Also I have been having some volume issues, a slight delay, maybe a half second while listening to music, and when my phone rings while I have headphones on, I answer after unplugging my earbuds, and the call is on speakerphone, and I can't turn it off..

Sometimes my volume crashes all together.. And each time I pull the battery, it locks at the boot screen... I have to go into TWRP and clear the Dalvik and Cache.. then it boots up after saying "Android is Upgrading" then its back to normal.. But I wouldn't have to pull the battery, if I could find out what was causing the wake lock..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] allansandoval:
Im using this "20141030" everything works perfect and fast, except when I connect my headset to listen to music the sound around the phone disappears and I have to reboot for it to ring again. The headset does not work :( any solution?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Mervingio:
What kernel you use?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
Haven't seen that scenario as I rarely use wired headset with my phone, mostly bluetooth earpiece for talking sometimes if anything (not for music).

I have my deal of trouble with audio volume in-call, sometimes the other party sounds way too loud for me upon picking up (or calling out) and pressing volume down doesn't make it quieter at all as volume level bar is already set at minimal, but instead pressing the volume up twice somehow resets the effective volume level and then it's ok. I have seen that on nearly all (since August for sure) Carbon ROMs with stock CM Kernel as far as I remember. So I think there is something related to audio module in that ROM still that might be causing the trouble actually.

You can try wiping Dalvik and Cache from TWRP one more time and see if that helps, sometimes it does, especially when you see "Android is upgrading" again. Same goes for flashing a different Kernel, wipe Dalvik & Cache otherwise weird things will happen sooner or later.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] allansandoval:
Im using kernel stock... Dont change it
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] EXV:
Agreed. Any problems I've had were due to a different kernel. Not much of a difference in battery life or performance either.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] JustZaphod:
I'm having a similar problem among others.. And I'm using the Latest Kernel from DKP
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] totbl:
Does yr Hangouts mic work? I see yr on T999 like me. Please let me know if people can hear you through Hangouts. Thanks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] allansandoval:
You fixed the problem with the headset?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] JustZaphod:
What do you mean?

The headset works, I use my earbuds all the time, my issue there is a slight delay in change of volume, and if the volume crashes and there is a slash through the Volume, I just reboot the phone.. If I receive a call through the phone while my headset is on.. Then it immediately goes to speaker and I can not change it...Unless I ask them to call back..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] allansandoval:
The headser not works for me :( which kernel you use?

---------- Post added at 07:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:13 PM ----------

I already tried wipe dalvik & cache and I got this: E:unknown volumen for path [/sd-ext]

And the sound problem persists when connecting my headset.

Have been using his Kernel for about a year now... Never did me wrong..

I would try a doing a complete wipe, and Install everything including your apps...

See where that takes you..

To add to a list of my issues, my phone appears not to be properly charging.. It says it's charging, but continues to discharge.. However I am testing different cables and I have several batteries, so I can use an external charger... Though If I pull the battery before shutdown.. my phone locks at the bootscreen... I have to go into Recovery and wipe Dalvik and Cache.. to get it reboot again.. These are all recent issues.. Not sure if its software or a hardware failure.. I'm wondering if anyone from Carbon actually monitors this thread, or is it just bull****..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
I had in past a few times a weird battery discharge issue while also unable to charge more than 85%, all cases were related to flashing Kernel without wiping Dalvik/Cache (or somehow improperly doing it)... Wiping Dalvik/Cache one more time solved it always for me.

All in all, i'm pretty happy with Carbon 4.4.4 if not for in-call audio volume issues and stuff that I keep missing (wifi calling... maybe Android 5.0 solves the problem if we ever get that port on S3).

One thing tho, about T999 phone startup time, mine takes like 2-3 minutes to boot up with Carbon loaded up (always was), are yours same?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] JustZaphod:
If your battery won't charge past 85% its likely that your battery is going bad..

The biggest gripe I have is my volume crashes, and my speakerphone volume is set to max and won't go down..

However with my bluetooth earpiece helps me bypass the speakerphone..

If we get 5.0 ported, it maybe at least 3 months at the least before that could or would ever happen.. It will come to us, but not any time soon.. The images haven't even been released yet for most devices.. They started rolling out images and OTAs on the 3rd...

Edit: and oh yeah, my bootup time is about 3 mins or more.. Thats normal.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mp3deviant721:
What builds are you guys running that have 2+ min boot times? Mine is just over a minute... And that's to a home screen with fully loaded widgets.

Have a Doki Doki ☆ Morning!! ?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
nope, 85% is the usual magic number for the problem with Dalvik/Cache corruption, google it, that's how I found out because somebody else's battery was getting stuck at exactly same number and they described it on forums (maybe even xda), I'm sure tho there are other "magically stuck" battery charge levels too ;)

In such case the battery itself has nothing to do with it, besides it was a new (few days old at most) OEM extended capacity unit I bought. After wiping Dalvik/Cache again it charged properly to 100% and worked great ever since for past 5 months now or so. It got me puzzled too, as I thought just like you, that new battery was a dud which wasn't the case after all.

Yeah, I was thinking 5.0 would be at least a few months out, but it's advertised to run much faster than 4.x (which is great news), so I am actually wondering if maybe (if ever) we get that 5.0 revision on GS3, then it could really speed it up (yeah, the current boot time sucks a bit LOL) ... and possibly bring other long awaited benefits like WiFi Calling from T-Mo in a form of app independent from TouchWiz since all OS hooks and SIP setup would be already in place within the 5.0 ROM (correct me if wrong) to get it tied with SIM card.

My phone does that on every Carbon ROM I tried since July, that is the only 4.4.4 family I tried. haven't measured it with a stop clock, but it feels like ages, so I just guess 2 minutes on average, some builds slower, others tiny bit faster.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] JustZaphod:
I'm using the CARBON-KK-NIGHTLY-20141030-0803..

It take approximately close to 3 mins, I haven't set a timer to it, but it does take a while to boot, but then again I had a similar issue with Pac Rom, so that doesn't bother me much.. The speaker phone stuck at max volume irritates me, the crashing volume bothers me, the fact when I pull the battery before shutting down forces me to clear Dalvik and cache in on order to reboot.. although its minor.. I just shut it down before I pull the battery.. The constant Wakelocks while sleeping, the lockscreen pops up every 3-5 mins, and I can not find the fault for the life of me.. It kills my battery..

I'm considering to a clean install.. I'd use a wakelock program, but I have no idea whats causing it.. Logcats give me zippo

---------- Post added at 07:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:38 PM ----------

Sometimes my battery says charging, but gets stuck and then not only does it NOT charge, it discharges.. but that doesn't happen all the time.... I think its a charger issue, but why would my phone say charging, then discharge? Maybe the Wakelocks I have been getting. I woke up this morning to a completely dead battery.. Lucky me I have like a dozen spares.. But it didn't give me any confidence. Its charging just fine right now on a different charger though.. Could be a combination of a bad cord, (cheap ebay cords) and a failing charger...

Edit: I use Zooper Pro widgets and they take quite a bit to load, on all my functioning devices..

I miss my Asus TF101 but the flash memory is fried.. Boots into TWRP, but I couldn't even get it back to stock rom.. RIP..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
OMG, it's worse than I thought, just checked it on timer and the boot time is at 2:45 mins to show me the lock screen and another 10 seconds to show me the home screen after initial unlock ... currently running Carbon 4.4.4 10/30 build with CM kernel, same as Zaphod.

as per the wake lock, I have the same thing, but I remember that I activated something in Carbon settings to make it so, so I actually thought it's my setting LOL. It's somewhere under Carbon fibers and look for Active Screen thingy, I have mine set to display always when charging, but never when not charging, see what your settings say.

Zaphod, try a different charger for sure, I use many micro USB cords from ebay too, but only a few wall adapters are good, I actually get used/refurb OEM (whichever android maker brand, HTC or Sammy seem great), don't use generic wall adapters, those are killers, especially if they have some fancy rapid charge stuff that goes sideways after a while.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mp3deviant721:
I wonder if pocket mode for Active Display is bugging out on you. Did you try ticking and unticking that option? Do the same for under lock screen notifications if you haven't. My sister had a similar issue a while ago and I tried that and she hasn't complained since.

And funny that you mention Zooper takes a while to load, its the first to finish loading on my device...

Edit: Just for your guy's knowledge, I'm currently running 8/28 with LeanKernel 9.10exp. I know its an ancient build but I've been having issues with the latest builds and LeanKernel so I'm sticking with a known stable build until LeanKernel gets updated.

---------- Post added at 08:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 PM ----------

I'm also thinking about reverting to an older nightly.. If things still act up, ill revert to the 8/28 myself and see the difference..

I haven't tried lean kernel.. I'm sort of a creature of habit and haven't tried other Kernels for a long time.. been using DKP using the Freelunch governor....
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] JustZaphod:
I'm not using a CM Kernel, I'm usual an AOSP Kernel.. The CM DKP Kernel won't even boot..

And thank you so much "mp3deviant721", The Active Display was the culprit.. I thought by using it, it wouldn't wake up if it was face down or in my pocket, but it was draining the hell out of my battery.. Battery life is back to normal.. But as for my charger.. I have so many... They seem to die often. I have one particular charger that charges multiple devices with multiple USB ports that plugs into the wall, it seemed to work great, but like all the Multi USB hubs I have ever used, they don't last me 6 months before dying.. and these chargers aren't cheap either, not from Ebay or Amazon.. But from Best Buy, or Fry's Electronics..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Mervingio:
New build is up

https://carbonrom.org/downloads/?d=d2lte/nightly
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fenixus:
gotcha, forgot that you are running DKP kernel. I run whatever comes with Carbon for now and yet we both have unusually long boot times which means problem is not Kernel related, rather something in ROM.

On top of that I am running Carbon after full wipe (in July), just kept upgrading the ROMs and/or Kernels, so I can't really see why our phones would keep booting that long (almost 3 minutes) if MP3Deviant's can do same in under a minute, kinda weird.

As per chargers, I never trusted third party chargers, be it generic clones or brand-names from any chain store. I usually stick to used/refurb OEM (HTC or Samsung) wall adapters, lost only 1 Samsung adapter among a dozen of those in recent years.

Yeah, for now I disabled Active Display too, I actually liked that feature along with swipe-able notifications on lock screen, but I had trouble with wake locks in my pocket sometimes even though Pocket Mode itself was disabled. That Active Display feature doesn't seem to work too reliably on Carbon ROM.

Already flashed and running! There seems to be new feature added, swipe notification left to open free floating window with it, disabled it for now as I usually swipe away things to left so they disappear forever, don't need them bugging me again in floating windows ;)
