Try to flash the factory image with a toolkit. Then all your problems should be solved. And BTW switching to art doesn't mean you will get better battery life. Battery life is kernel related.

don't worry be happy :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sam 4x:
Factory image as in KK ?

Flashing that will solve all issues or some ?

Great work, will try your amazing rom later.

Been missing Devs making new roms for our lovely XV.

How's battery life on it. Any better than CM11?

Is it stable enough for a daily use rom?

Thanks anyway, will report later with personal opinions...

:laugh:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Alx31:
It is stable...actually as cm11 since its based on it.

My friend has a Nexus 4, he told me that Carbon is of the best ROMs of Nexus 4! Going to test it soon.

Does ART work on this ROM?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] vrl13:
Tested the ROM for several hours now.

Battery drain low - comparable to AOKP - ~2%/hour standby.

ART working perfectly.

Just remember: move all google applications out from /system to user space. This way you get greenify to work on them as well, under ART.

Otherwise you need Xposed framework which is not compatible to ART.

This is an awesome job! I've been dying to try Carbon on my Tsubasa, I've seen it in action on a Samsung a colleague of mine has and it's a beauty.

What seems to be in order:

- Active display

- Dark Carbon

- NFC, BT, WiFi (btw, why am i getting better wifi signal on this than on CM???!!!??)

- Pie controls

- All customization options

Problems found: none so far (testing is still ongoing)

Edit: phone builds up heat and stops charging after a while.

Random Reboots count: 3

- while pairing my SW2 with the phone via NFC

- while restoring applications from backup with Android tuner

Best regards!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TheEdgeOfRage:
ART makes the phone reboot a bit more frequently than dalvik. I got 2 in 3 hours and on dalvik none so far. Also google play music seems to have some issues with ART :/
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] vrl13:
You're right - at least for this build.

Had no problem whatsoever on AOKP though..

Unfortunately the last reboot left me without control of my AR-Drone 2.0 while it was hovering 10m above me :laugh: thank Parrot for the stabilizer.

Rolled back to AOKP but i am looking forward to seeing more improvements on this ROM's stability.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Unknownkj:
How do I move my Google apps to user space? Into sdcard0?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Alx31:
Guys u can't compare AOKP, CM (or based on it) , Omni these builds are totally differents...don't even try dirty flash between these roms u will be disapointed...fcs all over.

Then for art don't forget that even CM Team said its not stable yet...

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TheEdgeOfRage:

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Unknownkj:
Its pretty smooth on dalvik till u switch to art and It heats up Like a furnace. [emoji1]
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Alx31:
+1 lolll its almost too easy...and about halo it will take a bit more time.

Im moving soon and theres boxes everywhere...soon as im landed to new place i will work on that, it's not that complicated; but soon as i will repo sync i will loose function

Im in contact with someone from Carbon team wich gave me some tips...will try to cherry pick it and make it stay on each update.

He also told me that basicaly, Carbon Team abandonned halo project beceause its causing too much bugs with other functions. So i will test it but if theres too much bugs i won't keep it too.

Art is still in beta stage and not stable...mentionned by CM officially.

Man, this ROM is AWEESOOOOMEE! :D I really Love it. It's the best Kk ROM I've tested on Xperia V :)

It has awesome customization options.

No bugs I've found in 3 hours of testing with Dalvik.

And I didn't face any BSOD or reboots in these 3 hours :D

Really thanks for this awesome ROM bro. :)

Carbon Rom with Omnirom Kernel:

We cant do logcats with adb because the kernel/rom doesn't boot up enough for adb to start.

Edit: in flashtool it says "device connected with USB debugging OFF". Maybe the reason adb doesn't work. Is there any way to turn it on when you cant boot into the rom? Because after Sony Logo the screen stays black.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Alx31:
Don't crush your brain on it...thanks for help

This kernel needs a lot of changes to work on cm/cm based roms.

Tapatalked with my Yuga
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] rob rich:
Such a good kernel and we cant use it :(
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Aria.A97:
Finally I found out how to take logcat from recovery :D

before typing adb logcat, first we should mount system in recovery :fingers-crossed:

I took 3 logcats:

1.First time I rebooted to recovery and flashed ROM

I booted my device and then rebooted to recovery again

2.Flashed Omni's tsubasa kernel rebooted to recovery and again i took another logcat

3.I flashed original kernel,rebooted and took logcat

but I don't see so much difference between these logcats :confused:

I can post them if you think it can be helpful :o
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Alx31:
u don't see difference between omni's one because i took same sources to compile kernel... :p

ok give it we'll see...

Tapatalked with my Yuga
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Aria.A97:
I can't even see something wrong in logcats :confused:

p.s I think the reason of not entering recovery after flashing kernel is wrong button mapping :D because after flashing kernel from recovery we can enter recovery again by selecting "reboot recovery"

and by "Omni's Tsubasa Kernel" I mean the kernel you've posted before not the omni rom's kernel :laugh:

anyway, here are logcats:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Alx31:
Just like that.... did u try other buttons? vishal shown me how to fix it on sp...now they have recovery access with camera button lolll but it works

anyways i do not have skills yet to make omni's kernel work on this rom; that's for sure.

I even planned to base whole rom on omni instead of cm but...same sh*t; lot of changes needed. :(

Tapatalked with my Yuga
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Aria.A97:
btw I found that it is not a complete bootloop, I think device boots but shows nothing.

Because after 10-20 seconds of that black screen, notification LED responds to charger(it turns yellow when i plug charger and turns off when I unplug :D )

I thought some files in ROM are making conflict :confused: :confused:

Upgraded from build 2 to build 4.

Lesser random reboots, better deep sleep battery drain.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Aria.A97:
How about when you compare it with build 1? Because for me build one was the most stable.

Build 4 is on my sdcard but I can't flash it right now, beacuse these days I use my phone to cheat on exams :D and due to this,stability is so important for me because if it reboots during the exam I probably lose some time and score :D :D :D

And just FYI, i flashed omni kernel again over carbon (just for fun) and [MENTION=5566313]Aria.A97[/MENTION] was right. The Rom boots completely with a Black screen (backlight works). I could play with the volumekeys and raise the volume and i could hear clicksounds on some screen areas (when i tapped on some Button blindly).

Just sad that the screen shows nothing :(
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Most likely the display driver files need to be modified to get this to work..

But what you tell doesn't sound that bad. Perhaps we are not too far away from getting this to work properly. :good:

[MENTION=5265704]Alx31TLse[/MENTION] [MENTION=5566313]Aria.A97[/MENTION]

Just flashed omni kernel over build 4 which i use ATM (dirty) didnt work. Checked just short.

But then flashed omni kernel over build 6 (clean) phone was recognized by my pc as a media device (couldn't change that due to black screen) but i could access all my files. I even could play with the volumekeys, could unlock the lockscreen, also the power menu worked (recognized the short Vibration when i long pressed the power button). On lockscreen i could open the camera (couldn't take a Photo, dont know why, its hard when you just have a black screen :D but i heared the "camera-open-sound" when i slided to the camera on lockscreen)

Unfortunately i couldn't take logcat, ADB just shows "waiting for device" :(

If someone has an idea how to logcat this, i will try again.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Alx31:
i will ask to a great Carbon team member to give me a hand with this one...i will compile this omni's kernel from source and we will make some tests.

But next week because he's busy now with exams period...

Tapatalked with my Yuga
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Aria.A97:
Perfect news :D

I think ADB does not recognize device because usb debugging is not enabled by default(or is it? :confused: )

I have an idea, flash build 4, boot it and turn usb debugging on, dirty flash build 6, and flash omni kernel,you may be able to take logcat :p

Sorry if I'm bothering, it's my exams period so I can't do these...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] rob rich:
But why can i logcat with ADB when i clean installed the bootlooping builds 5 and 6?

And when i flashed omni kernel over my "in-use" build 4 where i have usb debugging enabled, adb also dont recognize my device :(

Very mysterious...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Alx31:
maybe at some point omni's kernel doesn't have persistent adb...we will make it work don't worry :D

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TheEdgeOfRage:
There is a way to enable usb debugging, even if you can't access android. You have to add a line to the build.prop file. Reboot to recovery and mount system. Then connect your phone to your pc and run

adb pull /system/build.prop

Google the line you need to add, cause i forgot it :p and then run

adb push build.prop /system/build.prop

To push the file back to the device.

Reboot and try again.

I cannot try this because I currently have a flood in the region and am not at home
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] rob rich:
Maybe i take another try in the evening ;)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
One could also take the build.prop from the rom zip before flashing, then add the line and flash. :D

Perhaps thats a little less complicated. ^^

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Alx31:
wait next builds then...i can't figure out since i have same issue on my device; wich means sources related.

for this...its basically your job :laugh: u have to understand that we all have different way of use of our devices, so for example me i think for my use , i have great battery life/ system response with msm dcvs and noop but i have quad core and im almost sure u don't have this governor loll

i use to put ondemand/ondemandX/wheatley plus on my nypon wich have dual core and noop

when u see ---X governor as ondemandX it means when screen off it cutting one core wich is useless when screen off indeed! and save a bit of battery...

for V u have to test by yourself and actually would be nice if u report back your feelings on them :p
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Conservative if you prefer battery life over smoothness.

Interactive for the opposite.

Ondemand is pretty much average.

As for the io schedulers, noop is said to be the most battery friendly, right after cfq combined with conservative governor (they seem to work best together)

If you go for benchmarks, take deadline. You won't see any improvements in smoothness tho. Just in benchmarks. :D

Hope this helps a little. ^^

I think these reboots depend on the usage pattern. No build is more stable than the other, unless kernel sources are merged. :)

But well, thats just my opinion ^^
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] tilal6991:
It's not opinion - it's fact. The reboots are random and there is no way to fix them apart from using the 4.3 kernel sources.
