Would anyone be willing/able to walk me through how to incorporate JackpotClavin changes (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2702958) into my own carbon builds?

I've gotten to wear I can build my own carbon roms but don't know enough about how it all is wired together to incorporate my own stuff. Bigshotrob said I need to clone those first few projects... then do the other stuff. I know how to cherry pick but that's about it.

I suspect I just "git clone...." those first couple changes (vendor/lge, device/lge/g2-common, kernel/lge/msm8974) but then what do I do? How to I tell the build process to use those instead of the one's assigned during the "lunch" process? I can see all of thsoe projects in the roomservice.xml file but my guess is that I just don't go in and edit that.

Conversely, I'll want to remove all that once carbon updates their source.

Thanks for any help.
[Verizon LG G2] bigshotrob22:
Just put them in the place of the others. Just delete vendor/lge and replace with the ones u git cloned. Same for the rest
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
Oh, ok. Thanks man. Hate to tie you up with my n00b crap. Will give it a go.
[Verizon LG G2] bigshotrob22:
Don't worry about it. I don't mind. I'm also building another build as we speak
[Verizon LG G2] ducats:
Well aware of that, but thanks.

Running this for a couple days now and REALLY like the carbon features!! Only one small problem that I just can't get sorted out. How can I add APN's for my gsm carrier? I tried in both hangouts and using an app called APN and it just force closes. Of course the regular apn settings aren't in mobile networks like normal. What am I missing?

That isn't awesome battery life. I have been getting 6-7 hours screen on time with 20+ hours of use on other roms. I haven't had this rom long enough to comment on how good or bad it is but I can see the cpu usage is fairly high at idle. I tried freezing the keyguardtestactivity just to see if cpu usage would come down but android system took its place at cpu usage.

Love the rom otherwise. Appreciate it!

This was the same for me with Beta v1. On Beta v2, I am seeing similar values, but have not been on my phone quite as much today.

Currently GSam Pro is reporting battery at 76% after 11 hours, with 1:40 hours of screen time.

Great work BSR!

~ Sent from my VS980 ~
[Verizon LG G2] roor1337:
The only negative I find with this rom is the battery life :/ either that or hangouts uses wayyy too much battery [30%]. But other than that, everything else has been great with the v1 beta. I expected the low volume issue and already know how to fix it by modding the mixer_paths.xml file. Carbon fibers has everything I need for customizing. Theres no need for xposed apps to customize further (for me at least). No SODs or random reboots!!! So thats a big plus. Also ART works with xposed perfectly and is very fast. I havent tried the gps yet due to testing out the battery.

Hopefully there will be an offical :good:
[Verizon LG G2] JRJ442:
ART does not work with Xposed. Check your runtime. It'll say Dalvik. Xposed kicks it back to Dalvik every time as a safety because they're not compatible.
[Verizon LG G2] mjones73:
Yep, if you have Xposed loaded, it will always default the phone back to dalvik.

As for battery life, I have to wonder how much the Active Display/Lockscreen Notification features have to do with that. They need to wake up sensors for pocket mode and what not.
[Verizon LG G2] 55Pegasus:
Pocket mode uses a lot of battery. Turn it off for a day and you'll see.[emoji4]
[Verizon LG G2] bigshotrob22:
Here's my battery life today. Its not too bad

Even with what I think is higher than normal cpu usage the battery life isn't bad for me. Right now I am 16 hours in, just under 2 hours of screen on time and @ 56%. I also didn't start @ 100%. Started @ 92%
[Verizon LG G2] mjones73:
I had it on notification only mode in hopes it would only wake up the phone when it had a notification, not all the time. Still figured it was causing drain. Gonna turn it off all together for awhile.

Is anyone having issues receiving phone calls on beta 2? I looked at all my call settings and it seemed fine.
[Verizon LG G2] flyinonice4:
I clean flashed Beta 2 yesterday and the only problem I am seeing is GPS. Can't get a lock to save my life. Went from OSE to xdabbeb's using his method and then flashed the beta 2 wiping in between everything. Any ideas what I need to do to fix GPS?
[Verizon LG G2] tpayne2345:
flash a stock based rom, lock GPS and make sure sensors work correctly.. re-flash Carbon
[Verizon LG G2] flyinonice4:
I was hoping to avoid having to set everything back up. Do I have to start afresh or can I restore once I get my lock on stock? You gotta do what you gotta do I guess.
[Verizon LG G2] roor1337:
where exactly is pocket mode?
[Verizon LG G2] mjones73:
It's for active notifications which is an option under the Carbon Settings/Lockscreen page. It wakes the phone up to show you notifications on the screen when you take it out of your pocket. That means the camera or proximity sensor has to be sampled so it can flip on the screen when it detects light.
[Verizon LG G2] nativesmiley:
Has anyone got pictures thru MMS that is blurry or isn't clear??,

[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
Flashed. So far the kernel is behaving much better. Core 3 goes offline rather than staying at max all the time and 300mhz actually gets used. So far so good. That beta 2 kernel was wonky. Phone got really hot and battery drain was nasty.

Is hangouts a system app or did you install it from the Play Store? If it's a system app, meaning it came with the Gapps package you used, uninstall and download it from the play store. That has fixed several Google Apps in the past that had battery issues.

I dirty flashed and can confirm, battery life is a lot better! To the point where I would consider it having a normal discharge rate for daily use.

Also unsure if this is a bug but while using the dotted circle with % icon, when charged at 100% there is no number.

That's normal behavior, it goes to just a circle at 100%.

One thing I have found with beta 3 is when you try to change the governor to interactive, it goes into a boot loop. It may just be me, but it happened right after a fresh install.

[Verizon LG G2] vx2ko:
Ok, can we flash another kernel to avoid said issue?
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
I don't think there are any true kk kernels out yet, besides this one baked into the beta. Why not just keep it on "ondemand" for now?
[Verizon LG G2] vx2ko:
Arent simplekernel and furnace KK kernels? I dont mind it on ondemand, just prefer intereactive.
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
not sure about simplekernel but furnace aosp (cm) kernel 2.0 is still on jb binaries... he needs to update it to the new 24A stuff then we can use furnace all we want.

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

That's the quasi gotcha with using this "beta" build is that you are pretty much stuck on the baked in kernel for now. The only downside I'm seeing to that is that the interactive gov is borked as you've witnessed.
[Verizon LG G2] vx2ko:
Ok, well ondemand is fine for now. Really digging the no bugs thing too.
[Verizon LG G2] simpsonr:
Right, the big upside to using this build is no SOD's, quick GPS lock among others.
[Verizon LG G2] roor1337:
here was the other battery carbon fibers bug: when picking the dotted circle with percentage, the option for choosing the color is greyed out but when choosing the plain dotted circle the option for choosing the color is available.

I know its not the biggest bug but just letting you know its there.

Man, I just applied your three repos for vendor/lge, msm8974 and g2-common as well as the three changes outlined on jackpotclavin's page, built and flashed and still get this wonky kernel thing where core 3 never turns off and the 300mhz step never gets used. As soon as I flash your beta 3, the kernel behaves again. I'm baffled about what I'm missing in this build.

[Verizon LG G2] mjones73:
Only thing I can suggest is turning off Notifications under Settings, Carbon Fibers, Lockscreen, Notifications. It needs to wake up some sensor to work, might be causing some drain.

The bigger question is whether Carbon will be making a 24A vs980 officially, which I don't think is necessarily in the cards at this point.
