Every time i try to accept an incoming call phone soft reboots. :(

Also there is no windows animation change in developer menu. how to disable it ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Free Radical:
Anyone else have this soft reboot issue? Didn't happen to me.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] akshaynalinde:
i don't have that problem

no option of editing font size
[Miscellaneous Android Development] love4chat:
No battery section in settings are appearing as well as no0 way to connect it to pc for file sharing!!!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Free Radical:
I recommend using PerAppFonts and AppSettings xposed modules for this. They are awesome.

You will also need to reinstall Android and adb drivers (get the generic ones off xda or use pdanet) since the phone will now be detected as a different device by Windows. Only then will you get the file sharing/ USB options (see screenshot in first post)

Nice rom, battery life is twice shorter as on the standard v9 from FR.

no calls, just 2 sims in gsm mode, 100 to 35 in 13hrs. 5% per hour.

something is really faulty in our kernel :(

there is perhaps some hope in v10 kernel...

disabled and greenified everything, incl google services and other stuff.

upd -removed 2nd sim - now 1.8% per hour, thats better, but I want 2 sims :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] akshaynalinde:
really low battery life

Don't use this rom... battery run outs within 3hours

[Miscellaneous Android Development] Pritish1453:
I really liked this ROM but...

The rom is really good, without any flaw but one... The battery backup is very very low.. :(

by the way thanks for your hard work... :good:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imowt:
Hello everyone I am new to the Galaxy series. I thought the Samsung Kies idea looked like it could come in handy.

I have a Galaxy S4 (originally through U.S Cellular) but was FLASHED to Verizon Prepaid. After installing the program I tried to plug my phone into the laptop, but it says the device cannot be recognized. I can only assume it's because it was flashed and it doesn't recognize it as a Galaxy. Is this true?? or is it something I am doing wrong

.. I would like to send files to and from my computer but so far NOT so good

Can anyone give me an idea
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
What model of Galaxy S4 do you have?

Are the proper drivers installed?

At the very least, you should see the phone as a MTP or PTP device when you plug it in. If you're seeing nothing appear, then perhaps the cable or USB jack is bad.

Hello guys,

Who ever is looking for a good stable, good looking KK rom, you have to checkout Carbon rom.

This is better than all the other roms I've have tried, and believe me I've have tried quite a few roms.

It's smooth, customizations is the best part off this rom and can be done with ease.

Give it a try, and I promise you will not want to change it for another rom for some time.

Happy modding.

;)

Carbon rom

Yea great rom but beta 4 is more bugged than beta 3 do not create pin lock screen because it got bugged to me and i couldn't unlock mobile, had to reinstall rom with cleaning all apps :(. By now i can say that games are also not working properly- can'y launch injustice. And pobably lot more :P Beta 3 is more stable by now :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Krazzykule:
I am having some issues with this rom as well. Though I cannot really report in the original thread I will complain first here.

The black screen after the video is still happening. I don't really know what the problem is, but the work around I used before (Use GPU for 2D drawing and Disable GPU Hardware Overlays) is not working anymore. The moment you click in the very last option i mentioned, the screen goes black and bye bye my friends.

Let's see if I can make this message reach the creator of the ROM.

Thanks! :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] schumifer1:
Keep talking (writing!) people.

I enjoy this kind of feedback personally, and i am on the verge on unlocking my bootloader in order to attempt 4.4

There is nothing more to hope for out of 4.1 builds i think.

I am currently on nature, which is absolutely fantastic and its creators are really active. However feature - wise and speed wise , it is not going to get any better than it already is...

Lets all hope that german exams will be over soon......if you know what i am talking about

Generally i aslo can't comment the dev topic so games aren't working, had some issue with the screen (coulnd't wake up) and do not create pin lock as i wrote in previos post becasue it got bugged (can"t type any number but i can hear vibration after typing numbers:P) and had to reinstall rom. Generaly beta 3 is more stable by now :P OH and i do not have any problems with camera sa others claim in the dev's topic :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] 2k14:
GREAT!

I can't post in the dev forums yet so here I am.

Thanks for the new rom! Works great! AOSPA isn't very stable for my Acro S atm so this will do for now. In fact this feels much more stable than the other AOSP roms so far. Good job and thank you, dev!

I'm waiting for xperia overlay rom by ACHOTJAN 4.4.2
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] wohuw:
I have been using BETA4 for a couple of days now and I haven't found any of the bugs you guys are reporting so far. I was previously on OpenSEMC-U r2, and did a full wipe (everything but sdcard) before flashing. Also, I used the kitkat gapps from the cyanogenmod website.

Sometimes, however, the screen will randomly turn on when locked, but it could be caused by one of the apps I have installed, I don't know. [EDIT: It turns out it's not a bug, it's a feature of the rom so that the screen automaticly turns on when you pull it out of the pocket... quite handy I'd say.]

As for games... everything I've tried so far works. Subway Surfers, Dots, MyBoy, Temple Run 2, Dead Trigger 1, Granny Smith, Sprinkle all work for me.

Guys, anyone tried using the snapdragon battery guru app on Carbon Beta 5? I found it to slow down my phone a lot when it is in the learning stage, resulting in skips during audio playback and a lot of lag. so I uninstalled it before it could finish learning. Wondering if it's just my phone, or if the app is sh*t. :P

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Oedner:
just installed Beta5 yesterday, coming from CM11 beta 3.1.

i think the rom is really great, though i cant find two specific options and i searched for like an hour or so.

specifically, im missing the option to use the volume buttons to change music tracks back and forth when the display is off and the other thing is the animation when you press the power button to shut down the display. it does this closing animation which i really hate.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] frankfurt069:
Settings→ Carbon fibers→ Buttons→ under the topic volume buttons there is a function playback control

If you didn't clean flash it is possible that you can't see this function.

Hi. I can't upgrade my Sony Xperia acro S to any ROM's. Everytime I install the ROM from Clockwork Recovery Mod, I either get the black screen, where are the phone does is vibrate, without turn on, or a boot loop on the Sony logo. How did you guys install ROM's onto your phones. Thanks for the replies, Deshan

Did you flash the the boot for the rom?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] 1 <3 ANDROID:
I did not...that's probably my problem. When do I do that?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] frankfurt069:
In the zip is a data named boot.img use flashtool to flash it before you install Carbon in recovery.

To flash the boot.omg vol up+conect usb then you can flash kernel.

After this step you can go to recovery and do the usual steps:

Flash rom

Flash gapps

Wipe

Reboot
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] 1 <3 ANDROID:
I still get black screen. This is exactly what I do

1.downgrade to 6.2.B.0.211

2.install cwm

3.power off and flash carbon kk boot.img

4.install Rom and gapps

5.Wipe data, cache oar to partition and Calvin cache

6.reboot

If im doing something wrong, please correct me
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] 1 <3 ANDROID:
You guys remember when I told you my bootloader was unlocked? Well...uhhh...scratch that lol. But now it is unlocked, so I hopefully can install Carbon KK. I'll let you guys know how it goes, and feel free to call me an idiot :D ;)

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] thivanka77:
I also had a couple of issues with this rom but couldnt post it on the offical thread because of post count, so not soultions and just moved on to nature rom instead. Ohh well :cowboy:

Anyways one major issue was that i had a huge lag whenever i turned on data or wi-fi, i mean totally unusable state :(

Tried reflashing the rom 2-3 times, still the same.

Another issue was that the wi-fi was showing as always on even when it was turned off, as the screenshot shows wi-fi is the second largest battery drainer.

However on a side note the battery drain on this was really good, i underclocked the minimum to 192Mhz and voila around 20h of standby and it only took 10-15% of battery life.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mithab:
Go to WIFI> Advanced> and turn Scanning always available off.

And yeah, i also seem to have lag when turning on data or wifi :/

I'm on Beta 7, and my device (LT26i, using ART) is rebooting when (and only when) GSM signal drops or when I enable airplane mode. I should mention that I did a dirty flash over Beta 6 (which was a clean flash).

Is anyone else facing this particular problem, or are your reboots just random?

Also, left channel of the speaker doesn't work for me at all, but it might not be related to the ROM... Headphones work flawlessly.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] jhjhjh111:
I don't use beta 7 but the rom maker said that he knew about the problem and was most probably caused by thermald ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] wohuw:
Yes, I was aware of the problem, but I thought it would occur only when overheating, yet it happens when the screen is off and I set the phone to offline (and the temp is low obviously)... Maybe it was a misunderstanding, the problem might be caused by thermald, but doesn't only happen when the phone is overheating... Amirite?

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] jhjhjh111:
well you could just flash back to beta 5, dirty flash or clean flash, I always use dirty flash never had problems with dirty flashing, i'm currently waiting until the reboot problem gets fixed then i'm going to beta 7 i think :fingers-crossed:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] s_unnikrishnan:
#Beta 8 is problematic

During voice calls, the call waiting beep sound is continuously activated which totally irritates me. Also some call related function force stops sometimes. I didn't notice it. Now I'm using the old version only. #Beta 7 was very good compared with this... I was totally impressed with the Beta 7 version.

One more problem which I face is that the time needs to be corrected after every restart. I have this problem for almost all custom JB 4.4.2 custom roms.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] TigerApps:
What I have to say about Carbon Nozomi Roms is >

Was quite good till beta 5.

In beta 6-7,I think new kernel was used or some major tweaks were done which broke the ROM.

Frequent UI freeze but always a lot of RAM.

In Beta 8, older kernel was returned but with beep sound in call and still force closes on few apps and yeah, newer kernel was better hence...

...hence a Tripple Buffer version is there. Older kernel, few tweaks. Now UI freezes are less frequent but more of app force closes. Also beep sound problem is there but commits are there now for UI freeze n beep problem.

app force closes..no idea why that occurs, specially video players. Otherwise its smooth.

battery backup seems nice.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
The beep beep sound issue has been resolved. You can check the main thread for it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] TigerApps:
Yep, I mentioned that :D

On other note, the UI freeze thing due to status bar....i think the commit is for developer who packs the ROM and we cant do it ourselves. :(

Do correct me if I am wrong.

:rolleyes:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] 2k14:
Lovin' the rom so far except a few issues. My Acro S is on BETA 3 (had to reflash from BETA 4).

Ever since flashing BETA 4, phone has been experiencing random systemui fc and google search fc. Phone irritatingly hangs as a result. I then reflashed back to BETA 3. Although I get less fc and hangs, both (especially google search) still randomly fc sometimes. Can anyone point me out to something to explain this? Or it just the rom? I wanted to try BETA 5 but I'm hesitant because of my current issues.

P.S. I did clean installs for both BETA 3 and 4, wiped data, dalvik and cache as usual.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
Yeah, I thought You were saying that it was only committed, not available for general user. yeah, the ui freeze commit is not yet available for us users.

Those fc have been identified and a solution has been committed, but it is not yet available for us. If You want to get rid of those fc, don't use Google Now Launcher. Or else if You want to use it, uninstall Google Now Launcher and Google Search app and install it again from market, it seems to temporarily fix the issue.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] TigerApps:
I use smart launcher 2 still got freezes and dead wake ups (where screen wont wake up).I am on triple buffer version.

Apps too stop responding and force close. I hope that future of carbon ROM isnt gonna be dark.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] 2k14:
Ah I see, makes more sense now. And also uninstalling and reinstalling them seems to help a bit. Thanks! Will wait for those fixes then! :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MAPM:
I hope next beta solves all the inconvinients that current beta has. As it became quite unestable I am now trying the Envy ROM, which is new and as it's based in .96 it's really estable, but as soon as the new beta launches I will install it. ¿Do you feel beta 8 unusestable or it was just me?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MAPM:
I changed to the Paranoid 4.3 Beta 7. Beta 8 was very unestable, I had a lot of FC in all apps, including launcher. It was a mess, the PA 4.3 seems better and, until now, totally stable.

It is similar to any other Kitkat ROM, lasts hardly for a day.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] TuanHo97:
I'm using rom cook base on B.1.96 . Should I flash rom stock before try Carbon?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
First copy the ROM to Your phone.

Then Extract the boot.img file from the ROM zip on the Pc and flash that file via fastboot. Then install the ROM via recovery.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] TuanHo97:
Using fastboot mean my phone must being unlocked bootloader right? My phone is Locked Bootloader.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
Then You can install only ROM's which support locked bootloader i.e. Stock based ROM's.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] TuanHo97:
OK. So there are any risk if I unlock bootloader?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
What does Your phone say in the service menu? "Bootloader unlock allowed: yes" or "Bootloader unlock allowed: no"?

If it says yes, then You can unlock Your bootloader.

There are no risks of unlocking bootloader. It's just that You don't get the Bravia Engine after unlocking it. You can always get it back by taking a proper TA partition backup and re-locking Your bootloader.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] TuanHo97:
OK. So if i unlock it, all my data gone right? And wHat happen if I wont get Bravia Engine back?

Thanks for your help.

ps. I Have my phone Unlocked Bootloader. Now I'm using Carbon Beta 9. Should I get Bravia Engine back?

and this is my phone's about

Thanks for your help all the time <3
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] BaltazarIX:
i changed my rom today. i was using carbon rom beta#9 but on each day that rom drained more and more my battery and makes my device full of lags. (i dont have tons of files on my phone just 11 additional apks, something around 20 mp3's and some photos)

sorry for my language
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
The data like messages, contacts, calendar etc entries would be deleted. You can always take backup of them. Nothing much will happen if You don't get Bravia Engine back.

You can only get the Bravia engine back if You are on stock ROM, I don't think it will work on non stock ROM.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] TuanHo97:
What device are you using now? I use Xperia S with Carbon beta9 and fell great. Is your phone Unlocked Bootloader?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
Since He had installed Carbon ROM, it is safe to assume that His bootloader is unlocked.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] redneck37:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
You do have a unlocked bootloader, right? If yes, then flash the boot.img from the ROM zip using fastboot and then install the ROM.

Yeah I have unlocked bootloader.

Should i install the rom n flash the boot.img or should i flash boot.img after that install the rom?!

You can install google apps (gapps) from PA, they include google play.

I cannot paste the link, because of <10 posts :( go to paranoidandroid.co and click on GAPPS.

(I use the package gapps-micro and install additonal google apps via playstore.)

Maybe these package also contains a service that is needed by google calendar synchronization, I think it's worth a try

How to set up build environment with linaro

Hi,

I compiled carbon rom yesterday following the instructions from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50293545&postcount=256

Everything works fine, but it is not as smooth as the versions build by abcdjdj .

I think it's because I used planin gcc instead of linaro.

I searched the forum but didn't find instructions how to set up the build environment for linaro, could anyone give me a hint?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
Hi,

I have written some scripts which will allow us to use linaro for compiling the rom as well as kernel. You simply have to execute this command to use Linaro - "./patches/patch.sh".

But you can't use this command right now because I have removed the Linaro Tc from my local manifest as it was causing mediaserver and other media related stuff to crash. I'll let you know as soon as I find a stable and reliable toolchain.

And if you have any other problems related to building the rom, feel free to post it in the rom thread instead of this thread.

Regards,

abcdjdj
