Sorry this is going to be the official dumb question...

I am rooted, running 4.2.1, and wanted to try a 4.4+ ROM because of chrome cast. I downloaded your latest update and the Gapps. I was looking for a good step by step way to install the ROM and and apps so I hopefully don't screw anything up. I did not see it.

Thanks again, really looking forward to trying this ROM.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Mikito1976:
Thanks for your hard work! Hope you feeling better! Love your ROM, it's been my main and daily ROM. Works great for me. Its good to see how much love this nice tablet gets. Keep up the great job.*

How do you move apps to the sd card?
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] :
It seems that no one knows how to use the "Thanks" button so I have conveniently forgotten how to answer questions..:rolleyes:
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] :
Currently there is no "built in" way to move apps to sd. This will be included in the next build. :good:

New build after the first boot when I try to reboot stalls and keeps looping the boot animation. I've tried cleaning cache doesn't help. I'll try to see if I can logcat whatever is going on when I do another fresh install in the next day.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] datfat:
This has happened to me with this and the previous builds. It takes a long time to load. Sometimes loading and sometimes boot looping thought it may have been just my tablet but it happens to my brothers' as well. It became too much to get to load that I had to revert to an earlier carbon build 4.4.2.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] :
Confirmed , I'll look into this tomorrow...[emoji12]
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] alex_is_the_1:
I'm using the build from 4 days ago. Everything is working fine besides Facebook. Sometimes when loading a video it reboots. I'm not good at taking logs though. But other than that its working fine. No bootloops or anything like that. :)
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] :
You guys gotta let me know when there are problems . What's wrong with Facebook? I might be the only person in the world but I don't use Facebook. I also have not experienced any reboots due to loading videos so I don't know what's up with that... What videos?
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] alex_is_the_1:
Some videos when waiting for them to load would reboot the tab. Its weird sometimes it does it and sometimes it doesn't. It also takes a while for the video to load. I wish I could help more with the matter, but I may be the only one having this problem.

Edit: Facebook videos are problems on most builds of kitkat ROMs for sero it appears. Tried omni and still the tab reboots sometimes. Looking forward to new builds of this highly customizable ROM.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] TheLoonyRebel:
Sorry I didn't report on the booting issue sooner. The same thing happened to me on the earlier builds but I assumed it was an 4.4.4 KitKat issue as I saw the same issue on very early 4.4.4 KitKat ROM builds... or at least I think I did.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] :
There is definately some crashing happening during the boot process... I'm still trying to figure it out.:highfive:
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] alex_is_the_1:
Seems not everyone has it, I've never had a boot loop booting the tablet up on newest release.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] :
You cant really see it without looking at the logs but you can tell that boot up takes way longer than it should sometimes. :cyclops:
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] alex_is_the_1:
Its the same for me every time. About 45 secs or so.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] TheLoonyRebel:
Okay I did a new install over the weekend. I didn't restore Xposed Framework from my TiBu backup and it was rebooting fine. So I suspect at least the current Xposed beta is causing the booting issue (seemed like it wouldn't boot into the ROM itself on the splash screen). I have been getting a ton of system UI force closes however. On booting it would go thru the boot ani once then back to the Hisense logo then back on the boot ani before finally getting to the launcher. Weird stuff going on.

trying to install latest build and keep getting " Error in /external_sd/carbon - kk - unofficial - 20140911 - 1244 - m470.zip" (status 7) installation aborted

this is a fresh root and recovery tablet. going from stock to this carbon build. is a certain kernal is needed? i formatted system and then factory reset. i also downloaded the latest build a few times thinking maybe the download was corrupted but install still fails.

EDIT: im flashing back to stock and starting from scratch. stock rom flashed fine with no errors.

EDIT2: stock rom installed and booted. downloaded rom again and wiped everything. install still fails.

EDIT3: seems CWM was the problem. flashed TWRP and it installed and booted.

[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] mustk1ll20:
It boots up and loads fine. I started getting random reboots though. Would also reboot every time I loaded up a game as well. Nice looking rom and can't wait to see a more stable version of it.

[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] :
Hey guys, I spent most of the day today trying to figure out the start up issues and I think a lot of it has to do with gapps. I was using the PA mini modular packages because it works fine with my other devices but after careful examination of the logs, I did a clean install with the gapps recommended by Carbon and the ROM is restarting much better so far...

Continuing to test... ;)

EDIT: I was completely wrong; there was a flaw in my testing conditions...

EDIT2: FINALLY! Got it worked out! Next build will not have reboot/startup issues! ;)
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] TheLoonyRebel:
So I'm assuming use the recommended gapps by Carbon from here on out?

Stuck on boot loop and battery charging problems

Hey all, I decided to try this rom yesterday coming from Liquid Smooth (where I was experiencing wi-fi getting disabled problems on occasion like others have reported) so I downloaded the latest version (CARBON-KK-UNOFFICIAL-20140922-1140-m470.zip). I flashed it using TWRP (after factory reset), then installed gapps. It booted up fine and it seemed to run fine all day yesterday, although battery was draining somewhat quicker than normal. I figured I'd let the rom 'settle in'. By 3PM battery was down to 38% but I hadn't really done much on the tablet. So I decided to enable the "wifi on only when plugged in" setting, and changed the battery saver option from Wifi, GPS, (for high accuracy) to Wifi only (battery saver), then left the device and went back to work.

When I tried to turn it on last night, it was dead. So I plugged it in, had dinner then tried to turn it on. It flashed the home page for about 2 seconds (and during this time I saw the battery had only charged to 2% (over a 15 min dinner using the 2A charger it came with)), then it rebooted itself and displayed the Carbon animated splash screen and never got past that. I tried it over and over.

Between 8pm and 11pm, I tried different chargers, 1A and 2A and different cables, but it simply wasn't charging. I couldn't get to recovery or fastboot either because a red dead battery icon would display (indicating my battery was too low i guess?) So I left it charging overnight. At 7AM this morning, I tried to turn it on and it did the same thing - booted up to home page for 1 second then rebooted itself stuck on the carbon splash screen. In that second that the home page displayed, I was surprised to see my battery only went up to 6%. I would have imagined that with the device turned completely off, the ROM would have nothing to do with the device's ability to charge the battery. Yet I'm doubting that because I see different (cool) battery charging (blue) and battery too low (red) splash screens. The blue battery charging splash screen comes on for a second before the hisense logo, then the carbon rom. The red battery low splash screen comes on when the charger isn't connected and I try and go into either recovery or fastboot.

Luckily, I got my wife a sero 7 pro too, so I took them both apart, removed my battery and connected it to her board and am charging it where it's already up to 24%. Once its fully charged, I'm going to put it back into my S7P and will try and boot back up and see if it can hold a charge, or stay charged while on. If not I'll go back to my nandroid.

But any ideas what could be causing this? The rom seemed pretty good for the limited time I tried it. My wifi never got disabled.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] :
You know, I have experience some odd ball battery issues in the past. I usually just delete the batterystats.bin and it clears itself up over the next charge... ;). Although, I never had anything as serious as charging it overnight and it won't boot...
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] gots54:
I was hoping to try that. My battery got up to 60+% charging on my wife's S7P, so I put it back on mine, booted it up and I got the same boot loop issue. At least I have enough juice to get into recovery. I'll try and clean flash the ROM again and see what happens. Luckily I had my wife's S7P. I don't know how I would have ever been able to charge my battery left on my device. To get from 2% to 5% over 7 hours means a charging rate of about 1% every 2.33 hrs. Very weird.

Yet now that I have the device on in recovery, the charging rate is back to normal (even while performing a nand restore), I'm seeing the battery percentage rise slowly
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] kennethrkennedy:
Charging issues too!

I too have had charging isuues since flashing the last build 9-22-14. I thought it was the charger or cable but I tried several different ones and thought my port was going bad. It shows that it is charging when plugged in, but my battery continues to drain. I have not had any problems in the past except slow charging on some roms in the past. I will try clearing the battery stats bin and report back with the results. I haven't had any boot loops that I can recall.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] kennethrkennedy:
Tried clearing battery stats and still no luck. Flashed another rom and am charging now.

55 minutes with wifi on and charged 20%.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] gots54:
I was never able to get passed the boot loop even with a clean re-flash. So I too flashed another rom as well and have been really happy since and my battery charging is back to normal as well.

Might try this rom again if there's a fix in the future.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] kenhen93:
Startup time

Hi,

I love this rom so far but I am having one problem where if I restart or even boot up the tablet, it seems to get stuck on the carbon boot animation to the point that I have to turn off the tablet and turn it back on. Usually after i turn it off and on it will boot correctly but I have had it where this has happened two times in a row. I am using the newest build. Has anyone else had this problem? Maybe I should reset my cache?
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] :
As I said, I have had charging issues with this device before but not recently. All I had to do to clear it up was clear the battery stats and let the battery drain, then let it charge. You know, standard battery calibration stuff... ;)

Sorry you weren't able to get it working. I haven't had any problems like this...:good:

The issue you are describing is the one we were having before this latest build. Make sure you flash the latest.

To all, sorry for the late reply. For some reason I'm not receiving notifications on this thread... Checkin' my settings... :silly:

Also, let me just say that I own this device, use it as a daily driver, this is the only ROM I run on it and I have had zero problems on the latest release. :laugh:
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] kenhen93:
I believe I flashed the latest build

CARBON-KK-UNOFFICIAL-20140922-1140-m470

is that right?
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] :
Yes, that is correct....

Did you do a factory reset and wipe system?

Can you post a logcat ?

I don't understand, The latest build boots perfectly every time for me...

I've downloaded your latest: CARBON-KK-UNOFFICIAL-20141110-0700-m470.zip and TWRP-2.8.0.0-m470-flashable.zip. I currently have twrp 2.6 installed. I had one of your previous roms installed. All went well on the carbon and gapps install.

However, when trying to flash the twrp above, I get this strange message:

This package is for "m470" devices; this is a ""

(I guess the twrp is looking for a device id somewhere that isn't in the carbon build.)

I don't 'have' to update the twrp, I just like having the latest. I've formatted cache, dalvik, and system. I really don't want to factory reset though. Is there a way I can edit some 'file' to get that twrp.zip to update? Thanks, Dylan

Hi there,

So I rooted my Galaxy Note 2, made a backup in case anything went wrong, and then put Cyanagenmod 10.1.2 on it. I have it hooked up to the same google account I did before, but for some reason it's not synching any of the contacts I had. I'm worried I may have had them all stored locally on my phone and I deleted them when I factory reset.. I tried going back to the backup I made but the phone just gets stuck in a boot loop when I do that.. Is there anything I can do to retrieve these contacts? I really need them.

I tried doing a factory reset but It just reboots cyanogenmod. I've heard of applications like "Dr. Fone" made for restoring contacts. Do you think those are viable?

You always need a custom recovery to flash roms from either your internal or external sd card

I'd suggest philz recovery just flash the .tar file from

in odin then enter recovery & flash away :cowboy:

You aren't flashing a stock rom it's a custom rom hence the custom recovery ?

Yeah just flash it in pda then flash rom from philz recovery then it's done just setup required ;)

I have an unused Moto Maker redemption code for a Verizon X and want an unlocked X that can be used on T-Mobile or ATT. I'm willing to include cash on top. If someone is trustworthy and willing, I'll redeem the code to your specs and after they deliver (per Moto's rules, it has to be delivered to my address) we can work out the trade.

Thanks!
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
Try that deal in a buy and sell. Regular folk that know nothing of root would maybe like it. Trade them a custom moto maker the way they want for a used t-mobile. You might want to offer to sim unlock it too. If you can on moto maker? Then you're set. ;)

Problem asking here, is EVERYBODY here wants to be unlocked. Lol
[Moto X Q&A] suhsix:
Good point and thanks for the tip! Unfortunately sim unlock is not an option that I'm aware of.

There must be someone out there wanting to come to big red...
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Just FYI, the Verizon XT1060 is already SIM-Unlocked and will work on T-Mobile and AT&T. There are a few caveats, however.

You can only have voice OR data working, and not both at the same time (on GSM). Also, the phone only supports some of the GSM data frequencies (but all of the voice frequencies). Because of this, you may only be able to get EDGE data in some areas.

Also, consider listing on swappa (XDA's official marketplace). You might look through the listings for the GSM unlocked versions, and message the sellers to see if they would consider your trade...

Good Luck
