Hey guys I just tried the AOSP keyboard from Slim and it works. It supports the theme switch too. You should be able to just flash this file over your install, however, if you have flashed Google Keyboard you will need to manually remove those files. :) What's interesting is the Carbon LatinIME.apk is about three times bigger then this one.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] Phenom2122:
Dude I noticed the Google Keyboard doesn't have all the long presses for symbols that the AOSP one does. So if you want, here is the keyboard from CyanogenMod which stays the default colour regardless of the theme switch. All that it replaces is the apk but if you prefer to use it I should imagine a flashable zip would be useful for you.

The option to disable the home button to wake the device is gone. Can't find it anywhere. It used to be in carbon fibers - buttons.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] Herr Harro:
Yeah you are right. Sorry didn't think of that... I am actually not using the long presses so I'll stick to the Google one. But thank you very much!

Btw, I tested the aosp keyboard right now and I don't experience any force closes when swiping. Is it closing immediately with the first swipe for you?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] F4k:
I agree, I use always AOSP keyboard included in Carbon, I never experimented any force close too and I tested using another languages.

So for those who have that issue, I suggest to do a clean installation.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] kamikaze702k:
Just flashed the latest build, clean install, nice n smooth, no force closes in stock keyboard for me.

Yes the option to disable home button is gone but there's another way to do this you need any root file manager and go to>>>

Root-system-usr-keylayout find the file "sec_keys. kl" copy it to another location long press open with text editor and you will find it reads

Volume up wake

Volume down wake

Home wake

Power wake

So all you do is remove the "wake" text from the home line, exit and save then push the file back to it's original destination, overwriting the original file, then change permissions and reboot :)

I know that this problem is now two weeks old, which is a lot in carbon-rom release time :), but I learned something new about my CPU governor problem. Any governor that gets auto selected on boot, have issues. So if I auto select SmartAssH3 and then manually switch to SmartAssV2. The later works and the first has problems. When I swap the governors, the problematic behavior swaps as well. Meaning that now SmartAssV2 has issues and SmartAssH3 works fine. Maybe this is of interest to you.

[MENTION=548136]fak[/MENTION]

sorry that I bothered you about this using dirty flashes. I thought my problem was not related to carbon-rom, but an kernel issue. I was mistaken.

I guess it is time to do a wipe again, especially with the many changes that came with the last release.

To the users who wipe regularly: Reinstalling my apps is not the main reason why I dislike wiping. Backing up their settings is not a big deal. What I don't like is to reset all my Carbon related settings. Carbon Rom offers so many customizations and I like to use a lot of them. Now if I have to reset them with every week, it would be like not using Carbon Rom at all, if you know what I mean...

This is probably counters the idea of wiping, but is there a way to back carbon related settings? Just want to make sure I don't miss a way if I do the next wipe.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] jake3317:
Exactly my 'issue' too. Last weekend I decided to do a full wipe, but I am sorry for doing do, since I now have to setup all my known wifi networks, bluetooth connections, lost my sms messages (should have used sms-backup) and all Carbon settings as well. How do you guys deal with this?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] Vilo76:
What are the news between last version and "JustArchi" release ?

Is it worth updating (meaning full wipe) ?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] Phenom2122:
Yes the keyboard force closes for me every single time I use gestures, first time every time, with or without gapps, odexed and deodexed. It did that with the last build too but mysteriously stopped. And I actually gave up on Carbon this week a little because of it until I tried the keyboard from Slim. AND I ALWAYS DO A CLEAN INSTALL!!!

P.S. If you don't redo your Carbon settings on a new build, you miss out on any new features that have been added. Sometimes sneaky new little options pop up.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] 96DANGER96:
For some bugs such as keyboard bug you can try towipe dalvik cache, it helped me with some bugs, now i've got a stable rom without clean install

I have not tested it myself til now, but I will for the next upgrade :

"MyBackup Pro", among many others like Titanium, give the possibility to backup system settings.

I've tried to do so, and the produced file (ZIP / SQLite file) contains Carbon Fibers settings.

So the backup works.

But I can't say if the restore part works too ...
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] Herr Harro:
You can use Titanium Backup to backup all your stuff including your SMS and settings. For call logs, SMS and WIFI settings I recommend to backup this info to an XML. Then you can restore these backups even across different ROMS. Go to menu and choose backup data to XML...

I once backed up all my Carbon ROM settings with TitaniumBackup. They are displayed in green when choosing to backup system apps. There you can backup bluetooth pairings, SMS settings, general settings and so forth. It worked for me, but actually I would not recommend to do so as the underlying structure could change after an update. But you can give it a try. :)

What I do is restoring call logs, SMS and WIFI settings with XML and go through the settings manually. After some while you are really fast at it as you know what to do :) And as it was mentioned earlier you will notice newly available settings each time :) Probably there is a better way for it but once a week this procedure is okay for me. :good:

Did clean flash early morning, it's AMAZING! The best release yet! Fluid, smooth, fast, no bugs for me, no issues with aosp/stock keyboard, no force closes, app2sd feature is amazing! Saved over 2GB of internal storage by moving apps, anybody thinking about flashing it, just do it!

Backup your apps with titanium

SMS with sms backup restore

Contacts are already synced with ur gmail account, all the other settings are minor, you can manually re add ur Bluetooth accounts n WiFi accounts

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] Phenom2122:
I noticed this with SmartassH3, which is a pity because I tested each governer with a benchmark and it scored by far the highest. But it seems to stick to only two cpu frequencies unfortunately :/ I have no problems with deep sleep with both Interactive and Intelliactive (which don't seem to actually be so different to each other). I also benchmarked OnDemand which failed miserably.

I think it's also easy to forget these are ongoing weeklies and there are bound to be bumps and changes along the way. I would say unless it's a once in a while update for a stable or final release, is probably always a good idea to do a fresh install.

For those looking for backup solutions, try an app called Oandbackup I found in F-Droid. It is able to backup any app, including the settings for your messaging app, phone app, Google apps, clock etc.. I have restored system settings and carbon fibres with it, with varying results, I would say just forget about restoring that kind of thing if you want stability. But at least with this app you can easily backup and restore system apps.

I don't think smartassV2 or H3 are broken.Here it is explained what happens, now I also understand why I have no problem the one time, but a governor sticking to the max the other time.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] neustadt:
Well I still haven't had time to do any clean update and to check the issues for myself. But the way I understand his F4K-Quote, is that there are two seperate issues.

One with the Carbon-Roms integrated CPU tools concering SmartASSV2/SmartASSH3.

And a different one concerning Kernel Tweaker and dirty flashed Carbon Rom.

Maybe someone with a clean flashed Carbon Rom can check Kernel Tweaker's behavior with SmartASSV2/SmartASSH3 to be sure.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] Herr Harro:
I did a clean install and don't experience any issues with smartassH3 and sioplus. Runs perfectly well. Very good battery life, enters deep sleep and sticks mainly to min frequency. I use the Carbon Rom integrated performance app. However, I switched from intelliactive and didn't do a reboot since. So probably after rebooting it might be broken. But if this hypothesis was true, then intelliactive should have been broken as I rebooted using this governor. It didn't break though. Anyways, if it breaks after rebooting, I will report it here.

BTW, which I/O scheduler do you usually use with smartassH3? Any preferences or recommendations (for high battery life together with smooth performance)? Or would you recommend a different governor and I/O scheduler anyways?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] Kopaxi:
I used to use SH3 with BFQ and that gave me the best battery time and affordable responsibility. With 4.3 carbon it gave me 2days +, but in CarbonKat with same kind of use only give me 1-1.5 days
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] neustadt:
I use the row scheduler (which is default in f4k's kernel). I have not done any tests on i/o schedulers, but I like the idea that it is light weight (in terms of alogrithm complexity) and puts emphasis on responsivness.

I wonder though: Do i/o schedulers actually make an impact on battery life? I would think that their cpu load can be neglected when compared to the apps' cpu loads that evoke i/o in the first place.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] F4k:
For those who claim to have random reboots, do you:

1- Made a clean installation?

2- What's your CPU cfg? (UV/OC/UC, governors, etc.) if you're using one.

3- Which CPU tools are using?

4- Have you tried to make a clean install and only use gapps for testing purpose and to see if random reboot still happens?

5- Also, do you could provide me a logcat?

For me seem to be isolated cases, and is hard to tell what could be.

5) how logcat a random reboot?

Most times it happens after having a call bug with so sound and (I think) in low signal occasions.. Maybe is related to signal or connection configuration on LTE model and you cannot reproduce it because you have 3G model.. It's far the best rom around and it is a pitty to have this bug..
