Hey guys, I'm one of the core developers of CarbonROM...

...and there is something I would like to address:

I would like to keep our threads clean, and strictly about development and/or related topics. XDA is the place to be helping one another, sharing ideas, bringing each other up in this developer community through contributions. Because of the impulse of certain users, I want to follow a strict policy for postings.

The general idea of what should/should not be posted here is outlined in the XDA forum rules.

Things like...

...should not be posted here.

Things like...

...are welcomed with open arms (and maybe even kisses, too!)

The only off-topic posts that may happen here may come from a CarbonROM core developer announcing or asking for a certain opinion on XXX feature. Thanks for understanding, this is the way development threads were meant to be in these forums. I invite everyone to stay vigilant to report posts that do not follow the summary by MikeChannon in the XDA rules about what should not be posted. Do not engage users if they don't follow the XDA rules, Forum Moderators exist for the purpose of handling such users ;). Long live the report button!

Very happy, thank you very much!!!

Clean install of the 2nd build 7th Jan,

'External SD not working',

But, used LineageOS, CM14.1 Boot.img (which I got from [MENTION=5746995]doriandiaconu[/MENTION]),

SD Card now working, also the phone behaves much snappier, also /settings opens immediately too...

So far everything is working, afaik, I will play around tomorrow...

Substratum is fully working too, without restart... Cool!!

Very nice... awaiting the weeklies with anticipation

**Just a weird warning on start about Vendor out of date, blah2

***I miss the Multiwindow function, it's been so cool!

[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Myself5:
The Nougat Multiwindow Feature is fully intregrated, including the ability to FreeFloat ;)

The vendor warning and stuff is probably all caused by the "dirty" build as described previously. It should not happen on the next weeklies anymore.

Thanks to [MENTION=7975107]adnox56[/MENTION] (https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70479763&postcount=115) tethering will be fixed in the next weeklies too, as well as in-call audio (thanks to [MENTION=4901061]mcgi5sr2[/MENTION] (https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70501744&postcount=72).

Be sure to leave a like at the posts, these 2 deserve it ;)

Is there a reason why these commits are not PR'ed and merged in 1.3.3 branch?

Will updated blobs fix issue? Or another fix?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Myself5:
Those require special blobs (that got merged into the carbon blob repo already). The tethering ones are PRed but not yet merged.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] m0d:
Is it the qcom-extras: https://github.com/SuperBenevolent/aosp-vendor-qcom-extras/tree/m-mr1

Which never did anything because these commits were missing from kernel!?!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Myself5:
Yes, just that I am using [MENTION=5621191]rcstar6696[/MENTION]s repo (https://github.com/rcstar6696/vendor-sony-audio) cause thats _just_ the audio blobs, instead of additional things like perfd ;)

Is it weird that I get giddy like it's Christmas every week when there is a new release?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] casouzaj:
The sound quality on calls (on internal speaker; haven't tested via a Bluetooth headset yet) seems to be worse than on last week's build. Anyone else?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] nelrulz:
Yes it's been happening for me while using magnetic charger
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] murard:
Same here ( dirty flash ) and magnetic charger also.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] :
So I am currently using LineageOS and it has been working perfectly fine,but since I listen to a lot of music through Bluetooth headphones and use social media apps like Snapchat,the phone thermal throttles and cuts the bluetooth connection and re-connects,as mentioned the random bluetooth disconnects.

I just wanna know from user experience here how it is like running the ROM since I would like to try and switch ROMs but I need to know a few things first.

Does the same Bluetooth issue happen in Carbon?

Does it run well and is there something I need to be concerned about?

I also read somewhere about the camera button not working,if not too bad I usually used it on Lineage to wake my screen.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] fr3n2y:
Nice ROM. Thanks for all efforts!

Just my 2 cents. The reboot is not only producing at night, at least for me. In my case, charging with magnetic charger during the day also causes reboot.

The other point is that sometimes I loose mobile data connection, and I need to reboot the phone to get it back.

Someone else is having this second problem? Any workaround?

Thanks again!!

[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] difto:
Yes but on LineageOS. No workaround yet...
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] okij:
I can confirm both problems too, both for CarbonROM and LineageOS.

On one of the LineageOS threads someone reported that turning "mobile data always active" under developer settings on helps as a workaround for the above mentioned bug.

I didn't test it myself, but it could be worth a try. It might lead to higher battery usage though, because when using WiFi, also the mobile modem will stay active.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] BrotherZero:
I had zero issues regarding bluetooth with music, no interruptions or getting cut off etc (but I don't use Snapchat). The only issue I had with bluetooth is that high definition audio doesn't work for calls (like Hangouts, Wire, Signal etc), the quality on bluetooth is like a regular mobile call (ie poor). But there seems to be a fix for that with the next release which I'm looking forward to a lot!

The main differences for me between Carbon and Lineage are:

LineageOS pros

Camera button works

Can disable swipe to unlock (that extra step really bugs me, when you turn on your phone, you have to swipe to unlock and then put your code in, bugs me so much I'm almost tempted to switch to LineageOS again)

Left and right arrows on navbar when typing

CarbonROM pros

Data traffic indicators (love those)

MicroG support out of the box (main reason I use Carbon ROM over Lineage)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] :
Well,I am gonna give it a shot once the new weekly comes out,since it is going to be released in like two days.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ElLoloFR:
Hi all, Z3C with carbonrom here, happy with it :)

Someone can use hotspot thing ?

when i activate it, i can connect a computer with wifi but cant go to internet. Same thing with a Android phone.

An idea Anyone ?

Thanks for your help !
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] BrotherZero:
No issues using hotspot here. I might have had the first time I tried it, but then set it up properly.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ElLoloFR:
Argh, so this is somewhat specific to my phone :crying:
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] BrotherZero:
Tried the latest weekly! It's a bit hard for a non dev to figure out the changelog over at carbonrom.org but you seemed to have added a "CUSTOMIZE" setting for icon packs (when you longpress the home screen and get options for widgets etc), nice!

Unfortunately it seems like the lower quality audio during BT calls is still there when using apps that supports HD audio. Unfortunately I can't even pinpoint the issue since it wasn't even the lack of aptx (which I thought was the reason for the lower quality audio through BT on calls) that was the issue (as we found out when the headset I sent you which I had had high quality audio calls with didnt even support aptx).

Has anyone else had this issue (not able to do high quality audio when using apps that supports that like Hangouts, Signal, Wire etc through BT)? Or maybe it's just something wrong with me.

I've had some other issues(even before this weekly) with audio during calls through apps, like speaker phone creates a really loud disturbing audio on the other end, or having an echo on the other end when using wired headset, anyone else?

I know this might not be very helpful for the devs without any logs, I'll see if i can read up how to do that later.

I haven't done a clean flash of this weekly yet though, just a dirty. As soon as I get time I'll do a clean flash and report back.

EDIT: Tested calling another phone and high quality audio through BT worked on Wire with that phone! Nice!

i`m asking to see if its possible for the option to be present in the next weekly or the region check be ignored completely ?

Following a lot of pages, i found a solution (from https://xdaforums.com/xperia-z2/orig-development/rom-lineageos-14-1-sirius-t3577518/page274) for those who have audio problems! for all of us, i think....

audio now is quite perfect, without noises, also during calling. Audio increases the quality, mic too !!!!!!!!!.

could be considered to put this as default? in the meanwhile, for those who are interested in:

with a filexplorer (maybe xplorer or others, root necessary) go to: Edit /system/build.prop

and follow the attached file solution! Edit the file, save, reboot.

Someone Else had Problem with Google Account in this Rom?

Was working longer time but since yesterday stopped working.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] casouzaj:
I had this issue some time ago. I started having problems whilst synchronizing the contacts and calendar databases. In an attempt to solve it, I deleted my Google account from my Z3C, with the intention of logging in again afterwards. I could not do it, at all. After it correctly authenticated my Google credentials, it simply went back to the previous screen, not storing my account. I had to restore the data partition from an one-month-old nandroid backup, in order to have my Google account back. It's ok now, even after the multiple updates which take place when an old backup is restored. I couldn't pinpoint the culprit for such an annoying behavior. I had flashed the XZ wallpapers and clock widgets. Have not flashed them back, after I restored the back.

Have you installed any of them too?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Bluestar01:
Went Back to an older backup.is working again, now.

I had not installed anything else then i have from the older backup.

Have the same problem with latest build (08/09). In fact, it is worse than previous build somehow. I am back to old one where this did not happen as much. Also, I had one instance of battery draining from 77% to 0% overnight. But not a big deal and it did not happen for two days now.

Sorry if this sounds like a complaint, just reporting my findings on latest build.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Loken88:

[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] okij:
Thanks for reporting!

One question: Is the camera button working by now?

Because of this I switched from CarbonROM to LineageOS some weeks ago and haven't tried the latest weeklies of CarbonROM. I would switch back if the camera button was working.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] redbarman:
Camera button is working flawlessly for me, within the confines of my limited expectations, both when locked and unlocked, as it opens up the camera app. Also, doesn't take pictures or auto focus which I should have mentioned originally but didn't.

Also, as noted the data is now much more reliable when switching from WiFi. In the 1508 update the dev. has really outdone themselves. It's much slicker than the lineageOS builds imo
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] casouzaj:
For me the camera button just launches the camera, but neither focuses when the button is pressed mid-way, nor takes the picture when it's fully pressed. Besides, the camera is not launched when the screen is off (when the phone is sleeping), like the stock Marshmallow ROM did. So, it's still far from flawless!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] okij:
Is it also possible to take a picture with the camera button?

Last time I tried, it wasn't working on both Open Camera and the ported Sony Camera app, although both apps support the camera button (so proper support in the rom itself was missing.)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] redbarman:
Ok I'll revise it to "flawlessly within the confines if my limited expectations" as I'm just happy it opens the camera app
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] forgi1977:

I do not really care about image quality, but I do care about QR codes, which are widely spread now.

Hello,

I am on:

Any workarounds?

If you're not familiar with fastboot commands, this thread https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3557606 brings it as an installable zip file. Your current TWRP version should be able to install it.

---------- Post added at 08:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:43 AM ----------

I am desperate. It would be really appreciated if someone could explain to me how to make TWRP and last CarbonROM work together?

Here is what I have tried:

1. I came to CarbonROM from stock: while on Stock, I installed CarbonROM, GAPPS and Magisk. After that TWRP stopped working. Phone boots to CarbonROM.

2. In search how to fix the issue I flashed TWRP 3.1.1 (tried 3.0.2 as well, same) and it worked, but I wasn't able to boot into CarbonROM after that: every time I turn on Phone or reboot through TWRP the phone goes back into TWRP...

3. Then I flashed CarbonROM image through fastboot and ended up with working CarbonROM and without ROOT access (Magisk stopped work to).

What should I do to make everything (TWRP and CarbonROM) work?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ted!:
1. If you come from stock with TWRP 3.0.2.1, Flash carbon + gapps + magisk -> boot it!

2. Install Official twrp app (but dont use twrp from there... They only ve 3021)

3. Download twrp 3.1.0 by derf elot (google it)

4. Select twrp img (in Official twrp App) -> Flash

(5. If u want to Boot twrp... Use advanced Boot menu )

Greets ted!

Virtually evening works! The only issue I face on this great ROM is that some applications installed, notably Itaú (a Brazilian banking one) and Total Commander, that simply don't store login or settings data. I have to reenter those data every time I launch them.

I also have to confirm that the ROM is running smooth and stable and almost everything works! :) It serves well as a daily driver.

The only things that aren't working for me yet are the camera button (for taking pictures) and Screen Cast / Mirroring. There have been some commits for the camera button in the past couple of days, so hopefully the camera button will work in today's weekly.

[MENTION=3816568]Myself5[/MENTION]: Today there hasn't been a weekly yet on the Get CarbonROM page (not only for the Z3c, but for any supported device), so I'm wondering if there might be something wrong with the buildbot.
