We already work on it. To be exact, it is already ready to merge but we still need some testing. So stay calm ;)

However, if you are not able to stay calm at all and really die for testing a build with JustArchi's Optimizations, check this lovely folder.

http://myself5.webatu.com/Carbon/

Mirror: http://myself5.tk/

It's one of my test builds.

It's up, go and get it.

Okay, Tested and Working, fast and smooth, Antutu is Average (Varying between 10000 and 10500)

Only one funny issue so far, longpress power immediately soft reboots, no menu appears ;)

Beside that, pretty stable ;)

Thx!

We already work on a fix. It is caused by the PowerMenu tile. Till then, just use the tile :P
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ahmed:
1. Have you got DSP Manager on it? If no, can you add it? :laugh:

2. Would Dorimanx or Gustavo_s kernel work in it? :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] smokerman:
i noticed that also..but if you use toggles it works fine..keyboard is buggy also when swyping..it gives me FC..i ve replaced for xperia z KK ported.http://d-h.st/Bt3 works fine but dont forget to download your language dictionary free.:)

it could have HALO feature and i noticed that sound if too high distortes a lot on this version..:eek:

still one of my favourite roms kk for XPERIA 2011 and galaxy series.:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Myself5:
Halo is abandoned and will not be in any KK roms ;) I dont notice that sound issue you described, the rest is under maintenance.

And there is another issue, I can't place or receive any calls, I have full signal, internet works just fine but if I place a call the signal drops immediately and I get the message "out of signal area" maybe it's just a coincidence or related to gravity box smart radio feature?

Can someone confirm? Log is attached.

Reboot doesn't help either.

I had it like once some time ago but a reboot solved it, so I would say it is Xposed related ;)

im on this rom since yesterday and no problems at all with calls and messages..but i use always 2G to save battery and no signal dropping here.:good:

i dont use Xposed never..some problems within kitkat roms, or just some modules..but some of this roms work flawless with many options and just no need for xposed .at least for me..:p

im making a video review on this rom, and i will test 3G to see if i have some signal problems..note: im on apolo kernel TRWP 7.0b cm version as always on kitkat roms..

[Galaxy S II Android Development] BarkyJ:
Problems.

No videos play right. Starts but screen goes black after a second. Rotating screen it pops up again but then black again. Tried 3 apps and all do the same. Got some force closes today too. Very weird. Was fine for a day. Didn't try videos until today
[Galaxy S II Android Development] BarkyJ:
Battery life is also worse. I have sent maybe 2 texts, no calls, its nearly 10pm and it beeped at me for low battery. Normally half left with use at this time.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Catscratch:
Can't confirm that. Did you flashed clean? Latest nightly? Which kernel?

Also, can't confirm. I'm on battery for about 5 hours now and it dropped about 20% with average usage (WiFi, Mobile Data, Phone Call, Camera usage, ...)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] BarkyJ:
Cleared cache, devalk, and updated with Nightly (23 May 2014 coming from 21 March 2014), and then Gapps, just like any other update I do. Kernel is whatever it comes with, haven't change the kernel, not sure how/which/where from to be honest.

OK, I have good network here, on Wifi a few meters from the router, all day long. Very little use today and flat much faster than usual. Often get 2 days out of it, so something has definitely changed.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] smokerman:
i cant confirm this problems..for me after 1 day testing this new build only issue was power button causes soft reboot..if i use status bar toggles it works 100%.

videos for me working with all features with mxvideo player free on play store..even my TV application from my network provider working 100% with quality and youtube videos also with external app cause new version as we all know is buggy and with low quality..on battery life for me it was good with apolo kernel 7.0b CM..:rolleyes:

this video review HD was made yesterday night :

Ill do a wipe data and reinstall it all from scratch and see if that solves it.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] BarkyJ:
Thanks - downlaoded the GS2KernelWipe V2.09 and ran that first, but it says "i9100 not supported!" as its installing the zip....

Did that do what it should have done, or should I not proceed with the kernel now?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] BarkyJ:
I am told "Kitkat ROMs are not supported." with GS2KernelWipe, from the developer of the App.

So I take it you dont need to use this to change the kernel then...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] faiz5200:
No. It work with Kitkat rom. There is something change in the build.prop in Carbon Rom only. You need to use the modified zip here.

[MENTION=3816568]Myself5[/MENTION], warning! You should take down the test build, it destroys the ability to make phone calls !

Even after a clean install with no xposed at all!

Interested in debugging it?

I tried almost everything (different modem, replacing ril files from other builds, restoring efs folder)

No fun, plus it's confirmed by others using straight cm11 codebase.

View attachment radiolog.tar.gz

Seems not to happen on snapdragon devices so might be exynos related?

nightly 20140529 with UI FC

I installed the version nightly20140529 3x, but with the FC UI and the phone hangs.

I had to install version nightly20140528 again to get the phone working again.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Kirsebaer:
I've been using Carbon for about 4 month now, trying both several clean installs in the hope of getting a stable phone, but lately just dirty flashes. I figured I'd do a complete clean flash, meaning deleting every file on my SD and phone storage as well, only install gapps and then slowly install my other apps, in order to help find some bugs.

Now CatLog doesn't seem to record any log of the random reboots for instance, so is there a better logging app out there?

Also if I select either the "Warn", "Error" or "What a Terrible Failure" log level in CatLog right now, then I can see a ton of events, and it was those I'd report to the developers after my super clean install in order to help squash out the bugs. But if the developers open CatLog and choose those filter levels, don't they see an awful lot of those events themselves? And would they even care for it if I reported them?

P.S. Don't worry about the Carbon Version, thats caused because if was compiled on my friends server.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
I'm compiling a new test build too, I'll let you know in the morning ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] FPSUsername:
does this one also breaks the call ability like build 24??

good that I didn't flashed that one
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Myself5:
As said: Setting a this flag from O3 to O2 fixed the issue. Still lots of Performance boost there as it was only 1of3 O3 flags which needed to get changed ;)

I'm right now on that build and calling is working like a charm.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
Ok, like I promised: my report ;)

If you want you can still go full -O3, I just checked, the call ability was broken not by -O3 but by some other JustArchi's custom flags.

So I talked to IAmTheOneTheyCallNeo and, considering I was already using his work, he suggested me to just use his patch and replace

TARGET_thumb_CFLAGS := -Os \
with
TARGET_thumb_CFLAGS := -O3 \

I'm running right now my I9100 CM 11 fully -O3 build, and calls are working ;)

Hope this helps :highfive:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
as far as i can remember, the ril crash was caused by a particular flag that is used in O3. disabling it will solve the ril crash. i think the -fno-tree-vectorize (i could be wrong)...which is why i had that flag disabled by using O3 since jb. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Myself5:
So How to exclude this from the rest?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
Just searched JustArchi's commit, the flag you mentioned sadly isn't there...

Considering that -O3 is not the problem we should test one flag at time, but my build bot is too slow :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Myself5:
Seems like JustArchi Optimizations V3 solves our problems, I'm currently working on a commit for Carbon and will test and report back later.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
I saw V3 as well, but right now I've no time for tests because tomorrow I've to release my regular builds.

I'm really looking forward your tests ;) :highfive:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
not sure what you mean...you can disable a particular flag with -fno-something either locally in a project or globally.

yeah, he enables full O3 without disabling anything + additional other flags. imo, O3 is already too much for android. the aosp code quality is still bad and if it is combined with too many optimizations, the chance to break things is too big. if you are lucky, you'll see the break things while running apps. otherwise, they are just like a time bomb that can explode anytime if something is triggered them.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Myself5:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] tamingsarix:
So sad...i use one when black prince bring to G user..i dont now how he do it.. But i like carbon features
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
Have you tried using -fno-tree-vectorize for TARGET_thumb_CFLAGS?
[MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] mentioned tree-vectorize was probably the cause of the phone calls breaking, and [MENTION=4203241]IAmTheOneTheyCallNeo[/MENTION] is using it into his work ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Myself5:
Adding This -fno-tree-vectorize to TARGET_thumbs_CFLAG fixed the calls on Carbon.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
Yup, it worked for me as well on CM 11, that's why I suggested it to you :)

fusionjack and IAmTheOneTheyCallNeo really know how to cook a good meal :highfive:

P.S.

I've also wrote the suggestion into JustArchi's thread, with the proper credits ;)

I searched on "can't disable backlight buttons" - seems this is not fixed yet, right?

Networks speed in statusbar is too tiny, anyway to increase the size or just display a single speed?

Flashed back to the 29 build for now.

restart whatsapp and click retry and it crashes again.

restart phone and click retry and it succeeds and sends.

CarbonDelta definitely works for me on the i9100. I used it to update from 2/6 nightly to 3/6.

And yes, cm has swipe-enabled recovery. I hope the Carbon team will use it, but even if not, you can put your desired recovery in some folder and it will automatically be flashed by CarbonDelta after each update.

[MENTION=3816568]Myself5[/MENTION] I think it is a theme engine problem, but on/off buttons at alarms doesnt work when I apply a theme. Here you can see that more people has this problem on different roms and themes.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] YEA64:
Well, thx for the screenshots.. But I don't have the options "Shake the lockscreen..." and "Automatically resecure" - I have already enabled PIN, key and anything else to test it.

Also my settings symbol is not like yours..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sreinst1:
Sorry I missed this post. CM *does* have swipe-supported CWM. When I built Beanstalk for i9100, I copied the device-specific stuff (device,kernel,vendor) from the CM source tree (cm-11.0 tag), and it had CWM with swipe support. For a long time I didn't even realize that they had this support, until one day I just noticed a line in the CWM that I happened to miss every time, which explicitly states that you can swipe down/up to move between items, and swipe left/right for back/select (it's explicitly written in the text of the CWM screen).

Maybe you're using an older version from CM (before cm-11.0)?

And if my opinion counts, please please please DO NOT implement TWRP. It looked awful on the SGS2 last time I used it (1/2014). Unless they've fixed it to look fine, I'd much prefer CWM with swipe support.

---------- Post added at 06:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:39 PM ----------

Does the "non-intrusive" option in the dialer app work for anyone on the SGS2?

I never got it to work in any of the KK ROMs I tried, except for a short period of time once. I believe it's a matter of kernel or settings, or otherwise all would have this problem. After all, this option is set by default in all the CM-based ROMs, and people would notice it on their first incoming call.

So I always have this option disabled. When I enable it, an incoming call shows the small dialog, but there are no buttons on it for accept/reject and no info about the caller. It might be a simple UI problem, who knows. And I've done countless clean installs of various ROMs (except that I don't format the external SD-card, so if that's the culprit, I'll do it once and for all).
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Karpfenhai:
Non intrusive call feature works just fine since it's introduction...
