[Nexus 6P Android Development] d1n0x:
Is it possible to also have /system formatted as f2fs?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
You can but literally no one recommends it and for a good reason I can't remember. I'd just stick with data and cache.:)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] d1n0x:
OK thanks.

[MENTION=5051294]frap129[/MENTION] the toggle for cooler colors in developer options doesn't seem to do anything

EDIT: Ok WOW, after formatting to f2fs and clean flashing with Electron kernel, I gotta say this ROM with its under-the-hood optimizations + f2fs is the bees knees! It's flying! Thank you so much for your work!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] d1n0x:
Just had a complete lockup when trying to turn the phone on from standby. Neither FP unlock nor power button worked. Had to hard reset.

Will catch a log next time it happens.

I'm on F2FS, Electron Kernel with battery profile and Magisk v13.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
I had a problem yesterday when my phone became unresponsive and I had to turn it off by holding the power down. I didn't get a log. Hopefully this is a problem [MENTION=5051294]frap129[/MENTION] is already aware of though.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] llevo3:
I had some screen glitches in Google Dialer when answering the call with Electron v11, also I got some interrupted ringtone sound. Dunno, maybe it's just me. Anyway I get back to default (included) kernel, it's best for me.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] d1n0x:
Yes that is exactly what I meant.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
I'm using Franco personally.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rich6619:
Anyone have issues playing .flac music files with this Rom ? This has been the only rom where I've had this issue.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Randomsmack:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxDGM8RB4rSyM0JWbVpMT1h2dWM/view?usp=drivesdk .... Good stuff, Rom is solid.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Can you share that home screen setup and icon pack please? That looks amazing!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Randomsmack:
Almug icons, Nova prime, Zooper/ kustom widget substratum navbar driven with the awesome CarbonRom ,wall from G+

http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/5958b30d382aa/Sketch20204247.jpg?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] d1n0x:
It's more than solid IMO. It does not have all the bells and whistles other ROMs have (which is a good thing). But the truly awesome features are the ones you can't see. The myriad of under-the-hood optimizations that make this ROM fly! This is top notch!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
I can play flacs fine. what music player are you using?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rich6619:
I'm using the vanilla music player which came with the rom and I also tried shuttle + (paid version). It's really odd because some flacs work but most do not, yet the ones that don't work worked fine on other rom's using the same players mentioned.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
Could you please get a log after attempting to play the failed flac files?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
What kernel are you guys using if you don't mind me asking and what do you recommend as a good pair with this rom? Cheers:)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shantam3108:
Electron and flash ftw
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Are you getting better battery on Electron than Franco with this rom because I know with other roms Franco have better battery but not sure about carbon rom. Thanks for the answer.:)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
[MENTION=5051294]frap129[/MENTION] can I suggest to possibly add a changelog section to the about phone in a future update? It's a great feature I've seen in other roms and is a useful way to check changes. Thanks.:)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shantam3108:
Well for electron I recommend sticking with the default settings.

Don't know if zram is enabled by default but I enable zram. With carbon I switch between electron and flash. Flash and Franco give smilar battery and electron gives a bit better for me as I use phone mostly for browsing and all other stuff and the combo of relaxed + chill does a very good job in balancing performance and battery life.

With electron if my gaming is less I get about 4 hrs of SOT with 1.2 days of standby with lte and wifi mixed Usage. For flash and Franco I get 3.5 hrs of SOT with my usage
[Nexus 6P Android Development] d1n0x:
Electron. Not only because of great battery life and on the fly switching with spectrum, but also because ROM and kernel are made by the same developer :^)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Good point. Are you using govtuner too because apparently they conflict and I'm still trying to decide whether or not I want the profiles from spectrum or govtuner. Any ideas [MENTION=5051294]frap129[/MENTION] what the differences are between your profiles in spectrum and the profiles in govtuner that can be activated in terminal which use init.d scripts to select profiles? Cheers.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] d1n0x:
I do not use govtuner and have not heard of it until now. I use a quick settings toggle for spectrum profiles and EXKM for color calibration and sound settings.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shantam3108:
Spectrum is for basic users who doesn't want to go deep in kernel settings for getting good battery life. While govtuner uses specifically tested frequency values and works best with interactive governor only. Both do the same thing just differs in the governor tunables on how the Cpu ramps up. While I would suggest you to stay away from these as our phones are too powerful and doesn't makes much of a difference. You can gain some sot but it effects fluidity of device

Also yeah they would definitely conflict with each other.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] dwxvi:
I read a little into the thread, and I wanted to try out the new Carbon build. However, it seems that the official download link is down for the time being. :(
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Downloads seem to work fine now. Hopefully there will be a changelog soon.:)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] iamreinvented:
Go to the 'all' section and scroll down a little to the angler build and click on it. It'll work :) :)

Edit: dude above me mentioned downloads work now. Thought I was smart ??
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
I'm too scared to update without there being a changelog posted here. I don't know why:confused: Hopefully [MENTION=5051294]frap129[/MENTION] gets around to it because from some of the things discussed over the last week there seems to be some great things that might be added.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Umm...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] aoaleman:
No biggie probably. Cert issue only.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bdwilk:
My goodness, just flash the dang thing. I swear there won't be anything bad added. If for some strange reason you don't like the update (ridiculous) just flash the old build back. Stop being so serious, nothing here is going to break your phone.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
Fixed, cert issue

As we aim to be a simple stock replacement, we don't want to add a commit by commit changelog in the rom. I typically post breif changelogs with features that were added in this thread. Also, govtuner and spectrum will conflict, but that's a topic for the let thread and isn't relevant to carbon.

Fixed, server went down for maintenance and the ssl cert wasn't re loaded correctly
[Nexus 6P Android Development] d1n0x:
Dirty flashed new update and Electron v12 just fine. Snappy as always!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] note3userr:
Finally found a rom I like enough to replace DU. Good job Dev. This and electon A+
[Nexus 6P Android Development] llevo3:
All good with v12 :good:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
Glad to hear you like them both!

:cool:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sapphirecoupe:
Does encyrption work with f2fs?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Mrcactuseater:
For me, yes.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
[MENTION=5051294]frap129[/MENTION] Do you think you could make it a future update so our wallpapers don't get overwritten. When I updated it my wallpaper went back to the stock who's back wallpaper so I had to get my wallpaper back and set it again. I'd appreciate it if you could change it. Thanks:)

---------- Post added at 01:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:33 PM ----------

[/COLOR [MENTION=5051294]frap129[/MENTION] I've got a question I like to ask every rom developer and that is what version on clang is this on? Is it just the normal stable one like most roms or a more up to date one like 5.0? Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
The wallpapers only get overwritten if you wipe data. We currently use Qualcomm's Snapdragon Clang 3.8.8
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Okay thanks, I simply dirty flashed and it happened so not sure what happened there.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
As a Team, Carbon is currently focused on cleaning up our existing changes so that we can quickly move to Android O when it releases next week (for nexus and pixel devices only until CAF releases). That being said, Quarks, the carbon browser, has been completely rebased on top of the latest Jelly release, sporting new features like built in suggestions and a more secure safe mode, unfortunately, this will probably be the biggest change in the next weekly (other than the July security patch).
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Awesome! Can you link the information on android o if possible as I wasn't aware of it officially releasing next week. Cheers.:) The future of carbon looks bright and is nice to see android o support as soon as possible.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] d1n0x:
Where did you get the information that android O will be released next week?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
Well I just googled and it was a mistake. I heard July 10th was a rumor a while ago but I guess that has since been debunked.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] d1n0x:
Yeah I guess it will be some time in September.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
More like the first two weeks of August towards the end of August.

---------- Post added at 08:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:12 PM ----------

I thought so as it seemed too soon imo. A quick Google search tells me that it will be between the first two weeks on August towards the end of August so we have at least a month to wait.:) Sorry for the off topic btw.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] iLockhart:
Does the ROM have the Immersive Mode option? If not, what's the best way to get it? Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] note3userr:
So is the 7/4 an official build
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
If you mean 04/07 or 4th of July then yes. That is the most recent official build.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] moi123:
Pleasantly surprised to find Carbon being developed by the same developer of Electron. Have been observing the Electron thread for some months (been using Flash atw) and observed that @@frap129 is always very polite and considerate, without big ego unlike many other dev's. Also recall Flash saying if he did not develop his own kernel, he'd be using Electron.

So decided to give Carbon a whirl last night with Electron and am loving the smoothness and fluidity so far! I think it will be a keeper for me!

Noob tip : If you're already on F2FS and after flashing you're wondering why it "hangs" on the Carbon logo, you need an F2FS compatible kernel like Electron/Flash.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frost_nz:
Just about to switch to Carbon from a different ROM - how did you come to the conclusion that the 04/07 build is an official? Are you meaning it's an "official" as in a major release rather than a weekly? Or "official" as in an official Carbon weekly?

Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
We only do weeklies, no milestone releases. everything on get.carbonrom.org is official
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frost_nz:
Legend, thanks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] note3userr:
I only asked because the thread wasn't updated and it had been like 2 days. Didn't know if some were unofficial and never mentioned
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Well someone asked if a build was the most recent official build. As far as I know there is only one version so don't worry about it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] iLockhart:
Hey huys.

I'm coming from another rom and i just to want to thank Carbon's dev for his work. I've experienced the "major" roms for our device and i'm sure this rom is hugely underrated.

I was having severe battery drain and the device never went to sleep, but now i'm on Carbon since 2 days and it's perfect. No drains at all. Super smooth, everything works as it should.

Just one question, because i was not able to found it (maybe because it doesn't have). Is there an immersive mode? I've always used a hidden navbar... what's the best way to do it, if the rom doesn't have it?

Thanks!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] adinkwok:
I'm surprised we haven't actually implemented anything to handle something so simple, we'll get onto it :).

For now, maybe this can help you https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-enable-system-wide-immersive-mode-without-root/
[Nexus 6P Android Development] iLockhart:
Thank you!

If you could include it in the next builds, it would be awesome :) I'm not gonna follow any of those ideas, i'll wait for the next builds :good:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
And maybe arrow keys when a text option comes up in the navbar? ;)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Absolutely, [MENTION=5051294]frap129[/MENTION] is not only a great developer but a good person in general. Real pleasant to interact and collaborate with :good:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] moi123:
What do I do now that Flash knows I've jumped ship!! :p I think both [MENTION=6842057]The Flash[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5051294]frap129[/MENTION] are the best dev's in the 6p forums! Good thing The Flash did not release his own ROM else I'd have a hard time deciding between the two!

Back to topic. Reporting back after using Carbon with Electron since Friday. First things first - I'm not a serial flasher (no, seriously), and I value stability more than anything else. It's been rock solid stable, super smooth and importantly, battery life is stellar, both standby and during usage. I don't game and use it primarily for its intended purpose (calls, messaging, browsing, mails, social media, etc.). Of course I also have the necessary "battery tweaks" in place (wakeblock, App Ops, etc.). Also just installed Spectrum to play with.

Definitely a keeper!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shantam3108:
Hi [MENTION=5051294]frap129[/MENTION] whenever I turn off pulse if battery low it turns back on again. Pls look into this when u have time.

Thanks

Really awesome battery life I am getting on this rom the best amongst all other roms I tried and the smoothness is just icing on the cake. :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] igylan:
Yup I have that as well. The only minor issue I have with this very responsive ROM. Great work!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sapphirecoupe:
I've tried this rom a few times, and like it. However GPS, is completely unusable. I've had this occur at the worst possible times, where the gps would not lock.

It's happened when I tried this rom last month, and happened again with the newest weekly.

Restarts, clearing app cache, trying different apps, nothing resolves this unless I restore my backup (which isn't carbon), or wipe and install a different rom.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] zedmarcus:
I've used Google Maps navigation a few times on this ROM and had no problems.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Downisthenewup:
does this require vendor image flash if coming from Stock N2G47H ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] dcillusions77:
You'll just get an annoying pop-up when your phone boots and camera might no work is all. Then if you do flash the vendor img
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
Will look into it.

Sounds like a device issue. We use the same GPS HAL and blobs as every other rom, and I've never experienced this issue.

Yes, it requires the latest vendor image
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
N2G48B?I didn't think your rom was on that vendor yet as I noticed no popup warning or any issues.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
Today's weekly is. It may not be available on get.carbonrom.org because of an issue we're having with our mirroring system, but you can download it at [REMOVED, MIRRORS ARE ?WORKING NOW] untill its working (shouldnt be long)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mbonus:
Great to see you guys back with carbon!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mo123456789:
Flashed with no problems. Everything running smooth so far :) Thanks for the great ROM.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] NOTilyass:
Is it any smoother than stock ?!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Gopinath15:
Thanks for this ROM. Even I get the same issue with clean flash. tried both open gapps latest and Banks dynamic gapps :)

Google play services stopped pops up even after clearing data.

EDIT: Reflashed 3012 pico open gapps. NO foreclose Google play service errors :)))

I have freezed it and using without google services. :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] adinkwok:
Right now, it's a little better than stock. Performance changes have been implemented. The next weekly though, will be on steroids. We have implemented many changes that will improve the user experience, with the thanks of the new recruit [MENTION=5051294]frap129[/MENTION], the AOSPA team, arter97, and many more. Just for visualization, we merged over 3 pages of commits that will improve ART. We also implemented real time scheduling, which comes from Motorola with implementations from AOSPA and others. Will this improve anything? Well, just for the record, this is what iOS uses ;).
[Nexus 6P Android Development] pxan8:
Same problem with Google services as well and also the use 4G instead of lte option in system tuner and the advanced data tile option in customization don't work. I used the mini pack for Gapps and maybe that causes the problem. Will use stock to see if anything changes with Google services. Thank you for your work.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Gopinath15:
Great to read. All the best :))
[Nexus 6P Android Development] NOTilyass:
When is it out ?!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] p70shooter:
When it's ready I'm guessing
[Nexus 6P Android Development] g4nj4b4by:
no data on sprint
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Benjamin_L:
Let me guess by the name weekly it will be roughly, mmh i guess, a week? I may be wrong though ;)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mo123456789:
Camera has stopped working today. Was working fine last light. I'm getting the error 'cant connect to the camera'.

I've tried clearing the cache and restarting the phone but hasn't worked.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lawlrus:
Logs
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mo123456789:
Will do when I get home. How do I produce a log?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lawlrus:
Get syslog or logcat off the play store
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mo123456789:
Logcat attached. Is this what you were asking for?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lawlrus:
Yeah, looks good. I took a look at it but its above me, sometimes I can figure some of them out but I'm far from a developer. Wait on the op to take a look at it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mo123456789:
Thanks for having a look. I think it may have been caused by naptime. I tried setting the doze feature to disable sensors. It caused my rotation to stop working. I've tried deactivating that option but my rotation is still broken so I'm guessing it's it's affected the camera too.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] zzman31:
The download Link is down? I can't open it
[Nexus 6P Android Development] adinkwok:
Haven't looked at the log yet, but are you using the latest firmware from Google? Forgot to add that to the OP requirements.

Download link is back up, the website is being continually updated so things come and go.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
In this build, we have added some optimizations to audioflinger, added an improved memcmp routine to bionic, and completely rebased and reworked our Quarks browser to contain all the latest features from Jelly. Enjoy!

Get CarbonROM

*latest build requires the latest N2G48B firmware including vendor.img*
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Dbj.Dhaval:
This build and the one you uploaded few hrs back are the same right?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
Yep
[Nexus 6P Android Development] yorllin:
Are you using any custom kernel or special configuration?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mrjake1970:
hey frap, wanted to switch from another and try your ROM today but im having issues downloading.. wouldnt start the download earlier when i tried, now it will start but will take 9 hours lol..server issues?

i downloaded other stuff all morning so i know the issue isnt on my end.. can you check and fix it please?

rock on brotha..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
Just downloaded in 5 minutes here, could it be your internet? Maybe try rebooting your phone
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shantam3108:
Electron kernel default configuratuion
[Nexus 6P Android Development] cmullin21:
Does anybody use Ticketmaster? The app hasn't been able to find my location the last few builds. It doesn't effect me that much as I can just log on through the website, I'm just curious if anybody else has experienced it or found a fix.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Relentless D:
Minute 15 just now.

I'd say the server is a-ok :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mickyw1980:
On a similar note, my 'just eat' app won't find my location either, it comes up with an error but I've tried it on other ROMs and works fine.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
Could you get a log? I'm able to get location on both snapchat and Google Maps/
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mickyw1980:
I'm actually just trying a few other ROMs out at the minute (I'm a flashaholic) lol. But I will be back soon!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mrjake1970:
thanks .. and thanks [MENTION=5051294]frap129[/MENTION].. i speedtested at 43 down and had no issues downloading other things this morning at work.. for some reason it refused to let me download the ROM there..i waited until i got home and it downloaded in 3 minutes.. sorry for the mini fire alarm..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mrcooter:
No issues for me. Running your kernel as well, not sure if that has any control of that aspect or not though.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
GPS Bug confirmed, looking into a fix ASAP
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Relentless D:
I'm hoping this explains my issues with night light. I haven't been able to get it to follow the sunrise/sunset schedule like it normally does. GPS issues might explain it.

I was able to get a pretty solid lock last night using GPS Status but when I reloaded the app it had dropped the lock and took a long time to get one again.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Don't know if this helps but when I turned on GPS I was never able to trigger the NLP wakelock.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
Does Automatic night light work on any rom? I've never been able to get it to work, even on plain AOSP
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Relentless D:
I've never had an issue with it on any other rom I've run. I can say for sure that I used it for 3 or 4 weeks on AquariOS without any issue. It would kick on around sundown and turn off bright and early the next morning.

With the sunrise/sundown schedule it has to be running off device location and a GPS bug could very well be causing it.

In any case it's not a deal breaker.

Thanks for all your work on this awesome rom!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
The issue isn't gps related, as all carbon devices have broken automatic night light. More research needs to be done for the GPS issue as some users have fully working GPS on the latest weekly.

EDIT: After a clean flash, GPS works fine. Continuing research...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frap129:
When you flash Carbon next, could you do a completely clean flash? That fixed it on my end
