Hey Carbon users,

I have finally released v0.8 which is based on 4.4.3 R1 and this time ART is also supported. There are many other new things that need further exploration, e.g. HOVER is included and the Carbonized kernel is now stable for daily use! :D

Have fun and.. have a nice day!

:cool:
[Desire Android Development] stark_br:
Tks man!

Gonna try it later and report back:thumbup:

Edit: Few things that I noticed.

-ART ain't that good yet, sticking with Dalvik for now;

-usb mount doesn't work on ART;

-rom is really good, smooth for a 4 years old hardware;

-immersive mode tile remains active even if you remove it.

I think that's it for now:thumbup:

[Desire Android Development] spezi77:
Sometimes when rebooting the phone, it gets stuck at the HTC boot screen; I have found a solution: remove battery, then reboot into recovery and go to Tools > USB unbrick and reboot.
[Desire Android Development] karo222:
Thanks for the solution , But I didn't try it yet, I;m using twrp recovery and think that it doesn't have this option.

Should I back to 4ext Recovery???

Then I am sorry for you. It has just worked out on my phone. The HTC boot screen is displayed for 5 - 10 sec. (longer than usual), but then it boots up. I don't know what it is. When compiling a new version I will look into it.
[Desire Android Development] zumnao:
I'm experiencing the same behaviour in last Rooms. A bit annoying cause the rom is very good.

I installed this ROM yesterday and was wondering if there's any way to free up space in the /system folder (partition) as, according to Freespace, I only have 11mb free?

Apart from that, and in the limited use I've had, I'm liking it in particular the option of the navigation buttons on the bottom of the screen, and theming.

[Desire Android Development] Stereohype:
Thats normal for the system partition, you should only worry about the data partition to have enough space, check with quick system info.

[MENTION=5091819]spezi77[/MENTION]

I think it would be a better default setting to have the governor set @ performance since the desire is old/slow and very much needs it. I definitely notice opening and switching between apps to be faster. The battery advantage compared to smartass v3 is neglectable. Thanks
[Desire Android Development] sconly:
If you're asking if I have a sd-ext partition then yes - using 4ext recovery.
[Desire Android Development] Stereohype:
enabled a2sd after install?
[Desire Android Development] sconly:
Yep.

sd-ext already partitioned - before I even downloaded the rom. Installed rom, enabled a2sd and then installed GApps.

Should I give a2sd another go or will that cause problems?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] sconly:
Can anybody else try and help me with my app moving problem? Also, Is there anything I can do to make it less laggy (if there's such a word)......does the battery save feature make a difference?

[Desire Android Development] spezi77:
I don't understand why you want to move your apps to the SD card. If you have enabled A2SD all your apps are actually on the SD Ext partition on your SD card. :rolleyes:

Ok, so I suppose that you mean with less laggy to boost the performance.

Please try this:

- Change CPU governor to "Performance"

- Disable "High-end Graphics"

- Wipe Cache + Dalvik Cache
[Desire Android Development] sconly:
OK, so I've checked the /data and /sd-ext folders and apps are appearing in both. How is that possible?

[Desire Android Development] Saf98:
Lol you don't need move to sd function cos your apps data will still fill up all the memory, haven't you made a partition yet?
[Desire Android Development] sconly:
I'm talking about move the app itself to the SD.

Are we getting cross wires?
[Desire Android Development] Saf98:
I'm confused but you can use titanium backup to move apps to sd.
[Desire Android Development] eddiehk6:
No, you just don't understand how A2SD works

You no longer need to manually 'move to SD' anymore, that's the whole reason why you rooted and made the partition in the first place ;)

Even if you could 'move to SD' as above, this will move them to the original FAT32 partition of the sdcard, the same as before you rooted. You will not be using the partition you have created...

As long as the partition is created correctly using 4EXT recovery or gparted (NOT clockworkmod recovery or minitool), then A2SD should function correctly after setting it up.

You actually only need to keep apps on 'internal', this tricks them to the sd-ext which is what you want. It is better than the old 'move to SD' option as the whole app apk moves to the partition, not just a bit of it. 'move to SD' was inefficient, which is why you ran out of memory so easily before rooting.

You should be able to check by installing an app like DiskUsage. Enable root and browse to your /sd-ext folder. You should see apps (and dalvik if you enabled it) on the partition correctly.

MMS

I thought for MMS to work we need Kernel V3??

I live in portugal and have tried all different MMS apps such as textra, handcent and chomp sms and none of them worked?

:confused:
[Desire Android Development] kostelo:
In evervolv nightly, mms works using textra sms. I just received one successfully from my brother. I haven't tried sending one though, but probably that would work too. So, kernel 3 is not needed for this.

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire Android Development] Saf98:
But that's a 3rd party app not the original which doesn't work.:thumbdown:
[Desire Android Development] htc_desire_luke:
mms

so what is the verdict does mms work?

and with which app?

and is kernel 3 necessary?:confused:
[Desire Android Development] Saf98:
Well the workaround is using a 3rd party app but we want kernel 3 so we can have mms and other features working aswell so obviously it is necessary.
[Desire Android Development] eddiehk6:
You really don't need to quote the entire first post (twice)....please edit your post to delete the quoted part...

Can other users on the same ROM send MMS with other apps? If so then it's unlikely to do with Kernel V3.

MMS also has to do with correct APN settings. Additionally, some carriers charge separately for it. So even if you have all the settings correct, the carrier may not let you send them sometimes if you don't have a positive credit balance first.

As a completely different workaround though...I know this doesn't excatly solve your issue, but why use MMS at all nowadays? It is basically completely redundant with smartphones... The only time anyone has to use MMS is if the recipient has a dumbphone.

Just use a messaging app like WhatsApp / Hangouts / Viber etc to send the pictures instead, make sure the recipient has the same app installed:

- No fiddling with APN settings

- No changing ROMs just to get MMS working

- No more worrying about K3....................

I've seen you in various ROM threads only asking about MMS, when MMS is not really the issue imo. You don't have to use it ;)
[Desire Android Development] Saf98:
Hahahaha
[Desire Android Development] htc_desire_luke:
mms

Thanks for the exclanations.

MMS is somtimes good when I dont want to write out emails.

for instance, my brother in the UK, uses mainly txt on his phone, and doesnt use email, mms is more instant in some regards.

and back to mms etc.. yes I have credit on my phone and correct apn settings, I have tried all reccommended mms 3rd party apps without success.

also aside from mms I am finding very slow responses to downloading apps in play store, is there an issue??

Other roms where much faster, no saying yours isnt, ....

I am using mount2sd...

any assistance appreciated.:confused:
[Desire Android Development] Saf98:
You should try qiss rom ics it has mms working but on 2g.
[Desire Android Development] htc_desire_luke:
mms

I think i tried that already because of that , but didnt work for me :(
[Desire Android Development] Stereohype:
Love the feel and customization of this rom but sadly a few too many reboots, especially with google maps. Anyone else experiencing this?
[Desire Android Development] eddiehk6:
I'm not talking about email at all. I don't think you quite understand the advantages of messaging apps...

So with MMS, you open your SMS app -> select the conversation -> attach the picture -> hit send

This requires:

- Correct APN / MMS settings

- Extra charges in most cases as carriers want to

- Capping the maximum size of the picture to 300kb(?) so reduces the picture quality

- Often takes longer to do the above conversion.

With a messaging app (not email), you open the messaging app -> select the conversation -> attach the picture -> hit send. Note it's pretty much exactly the same...

- This is not writing out an email...

- Works over 3G or WiFi

- Works even better if you're sending to / from abroad as you are in your case

- No extra charges. An international MMS (as in your case) will likely cost even more than a local MMS

- Some apps have the option to send the full resolution picture too

You appear to be:

- switching and finding different ROMs

- installing various SMS apps

- checking / configuring settings each time

- asking about Kernel 3 when it may not even be the issue

All just to get MMS working. You don't need to pick or find a custom ROM based on its MMS capability. They have much more useful features you could look out for. Other people have appeared to get MMS working on the same ROMs as you, so not sure where the issue lies.

Personally, the way I see it, you could simply solve all your issues and free yourself from this outdated system in one go: by switching to messaging apps. Try them, get your brother to install the same. They'll work on pretty much any ROM. Most people use them too. Once you see them working, you'll wonder why MMS still exists when you have a smartphone....
[Desire Android Development] htc_desire_luke:
mms

I have tried it all.

I have spoken to the tecnichans at vodafone Portugal to check apn setting and they confirm that everything is ok on my phone,

I have tried textra, handcent and chomp sms without success :(
[Desire Android Development] eddiehk6:
So......for the third (and final) time...please stop worrying / thinking / talking about MMS...

You have two choices:

- Install all of the ROMs available just to try and get MMS working, go ask all the technicians to check you MMS settings, keep asking about K3...

- Or just install a messaging app

Which do you think is easier?

Try any of whatsapp, viber, hangouts, kik, Skype, yahoo, tango, Facebook messenger, bbm, line......+ more

ANY of them. Take your pick. Many of these are designed beautifully so you can send pictures quickly, conveniently and easily. You can even send locations, audio messages, videos if you like. Welcome to the world of amazing smartphone messenger apps ;)

You have the solution right there front of you. It involves forgetting about ROMs, kernels or MMS settings. It is holding you back in the previous decade. This is just learning how to use your smartphone to it's potential, using the internet to send pictures....crazy idea eh?

Then: you can forget that MMS ever exists.....................
[Desire Android Development] spezi77:
The easiest way to solve your pains with non working MMS is to buy a new smartphone at Vodafone Portugal. :D

Maybe soon. Please let me know what are the most annyoing bugs that need my attention.

The current todo list is:

- Fix this issue causing battery drain: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/66894/

- Fix the "got stuck at boot/splash screen"

- Add again the alarm/timer/stopwatch app

- Fix issue with weather forecast not open anymore, when clicking on cLock widget's weather panel

- Try to fix the "Trackball wake"

- Boost the performance (maybe a little bit)
[Desire Android Development] sconly:
- Fix incoming call issue, i.e. screen not activating straight away - taking a good 10-15 secs (at least).

- This might come under 'Boost the performance', but it seems to use battery more than other roms.

Check if facebook has moved to the sd ext.
[Desire Android Development] sconly:
It's in /sd-ext and /data/app
[Desire Android Development] eddiehk6:
Depending on the script, sometimes apps will appear in /data/app but their actual location is in /sd-ext/app

Are all your install apps 'appearing' in /data/app? If so, then all should be working as intended

If not, then try uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Then check FB in the manage apps settings screen.

- Some apps try to automatically install to sd card (the old 'move to sd' method which is redundant as above). If so 'move to phone' to trick it properly to sd-ext

- Try 'move to SD', then 'move to phone' to force it to sd-ext.

Remember that as you install apps, they generate app data like preferences, saved settings etc. This goes to your /data partition where it is best stored for speed and stability. Facebook can just generate a lot of data (and cache too), check the sizes in the same manage app settings screen. Or with DiskUsage, check /data/data

Your internal memory will still go down with A2SD, but slower. There is still a finite amount of apps you can install as your /data partition is only total 182MB with Alpha jelly hboot or 150MB with stock hboot.

How do I make a flashable zip?
[Desire Android Development] eddiehk6:
If you are modifying the ROM.zip, you can do it without extracting it and re-zipping.

- Install 7zip

- Make a copy of the original ROM.zip (as a backup so you can compare)

- Double click the ROM.zip (do not extract)

- Delete unnecessary things from /system/app, /system/media etc.

- Go up to the 'root' of the ROM.zip, you should see folders like /system and /META-INF. There you can check the total /system size once extracted (not the current compressed size). Make sure it's comfortably less than 250MB if you're trying to fit into stock or alpha jelly, say 245MB.

- Close 7zip to update the ROM.zip. Compare to your original ROM.zip, you should see it's a smaller size.

(Note that if the original ROM.zip's extracted /system size is already less than 250MB, then you shouldn't need to go through this in the first place. It should already 'fit' onto stock or alpha jelly hboot)
