Support
We spend an astonishing amount of time developing this software. We can't spend much time on XDA as a result, so if you need support, please try the following:
1) Search. Search, search, search. Yes, you. I don't care how unique or important your question is, it's very likely someone has adressed it already. Especially if you're even close to new at this.
2) Read our FAQ, which can be found on our website. Carbon FAQ
3) Ask a question in your device forum. Someone will no doubt try to help you. Warning: this help may come in the form of telling you it's a dumb question that has been asked before. See step 1 - such are the perils of asking questions when you haven't done the research yourself. Android is about helping yourself.
4) Ask a question on our IRC channel. Connect to #teamcarbon on irc.freenode.net or click here. You'll find several other Carbon fans and usually one or more devs as well. Please be polite.
Who is Team Carbon?

Remember, every penny you send to us goes right back into the rom. It's used for hardware, server costs, etc - all the things that help us make Carbon better with every release. Your support means the world to us! If you've enjoyed Carbon, please consider a donation toward this goal. Thank you, and we hope you continue to enjoy Carbon!
...Here is the new discussion thread for the CarbonRom n7000 releases....a new round of nightlies will be available in the morning. Kejar31, Morfic, and myself will continue to support the exynos4 line in spite of our fallen brother....Sadly we had to part ways with ToxicThunder...the details of this can be discussed elsewhere. Carbon is dedicated to continuing the advancement and development of the n7000 and i9100. (as well as all of our devices) Next nightly should be up on the servers in a few hours and i highly reccomend checking them out...

I'm sorry for asking a stupid question right off the bat, but what is gcc/-O3?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2
GCC
http://gcc.gnu.org/develop.html
O3 - this means it's build with linaro toolchain, base version 03.
Hope I got that right.

GCC 4.7 in this scenario refers to Google's GCC 4.7, i would list that in the title except it doesnt look that nice. You may be familiar with the term 'linaro' Google's GCC 4.7 shares a lot of the same traits and tools as the linaro toolchain and in benchmarking (the ROM...kernel is a different story) it seems to outscore linaro almost everytime (across the board) so for now well be sticking with it....The best explanation of O3 i can give you will come from gentoo wiki Which has some pretty cool excerpts...Here's one that might help you gain an understanding of Os, O2, and O3...
gentoowiki said:
What effects -O3 has
-O3 is the highest optimization level and could possibly make faster code but the applications that benefit from it are very few, usually image and video decoders and such. However the side effects, like larger binary size, affects everything. Larger binaries use more memory, load slower, cause more disc I/O, etc. So compiling a system with -O3 will have the effect that a few applications run slightly faster at the expense of the rest of the system running slightly slower and becoming less responsive.
Linux caches regularly used programs and files in RAM (that's the "cache" part when you run free -m on the command line), so the program may only need loading from the hard disk once (depending on the program and computer usage). Therefore this is less of a problem on systems with large amounts of RAM. A large CPU cache also helps as it is better suited to larger binaries, so you are more likely to see some sort of speed up. So if you have a high-end system, you will suffer less from the problems associated with -O3.
The choice: Summarised
-O2 is the default optimization level. It is ideal for desktop systems because of small binary size which results in faster load from HDD, lower RAM usage and less cache misses on modern CPUs. Servers should also use -O2 since it is considered to be the highest reliable optimization level.
-O3 only degrades application performance as it produces huge binaries which use high amount of HDD, RAM and CPU cache space. Only specific applications such as python and sqlite gain improved performance. This optimization level greatly increases compilation time.
-Os should be used on systems with limited CPU cache (old CPUs, Atom ..). Large executables such as firefox may become more responsive using -Os.

Hope someone can help me here as I love this ROM but at the moment it is becoming unstable for me. I am suffering random reboots and recently getting a huge battery drain. All of a sudden my phone become really hot, almost too hot to touch, and the battery just drops off.
I was on 1.5 beta but have gone back to 1.4. My battery stats show gpsd having a huge drain, any idea what this is and how to fix it? Or could it be something else.
How do I get hold of the latest nightly?
Thanks

I installed terminal emulator. It's free in play store.
First reboot.
Then open terminal emulator.
Type: su
Enter
Type: killall gpsd
Enter.
Close terminal emulator.
I have also better battery stats installed.
So, if all is ok. You will see the battery drain stop.
For me this worked.
Battery drain now between 2 and 3% per hour.

These are official codefireX JellyBean Nightlies brought to you by Synergy(e) and TeamCodefire. These use official CM device repos and are built from source nightly. THIS MEANS IT HAS ANY BUGS THE CM10 NIGHTLIES HAVE.
codefireX is a CM10 spinoff with the goal of providing additional power-user features (contained in the codefireX settings panel) while still maintaining full upstream CM compatibility for automated CM merges daily for the nightlies. This means the nightlies are fully up to date with the CM10 nightlies, however you get additional features as well! The codefireX settings panel will become more populated with features as this project progresses, and more device nightlies will also be added.
The codefireX github is HERE. Changelogs are not available, however you may use github (always current). The maintainer for this will not respond to questions on this thread, so please help your fellow android user out or visit twitter/IRC

Same here.
Well I suppose the most interesting thing is the codefireX settings panel, which I guess will be pretty similar as what we can find on other devices. (Changing DPI, tablet mode, battery style...). It seems like an alternative to AOKP. I would be glad to try it too, but indeed the download link is broken

Here is the correct link:
http://synergy.codefi.re/codefireX-i9300
Rom installed, I quickly tested the codefireX settings panel. (The main change I suppose from original CM10). Of course it is too early to provide a full review. Being a fan of AOSP roms, I will spend some time on this new rom. It is interesting for people looking for a bit of extra-customisation without getting too complex.
Before people start posting 'Hey youtube does not work in landscape mode', this rom is using the new HW Composer, you need to use an app like 'Screen Filter' to watch fullscreen videos until this is fixed by CM10 team (When the kernel source will be released I guess).
Thanks for posting. Any difference from here?
People this rom is fing good.
We are looking at a team with a very high level of coding knowledge and are very well organised (10 different devices on the go at once).
I first had contact with synergye and the team on the HTC velocity. Man what a difference they made. Took the stock thing and turned it on its head. In particular the kang bang kernel, always built with the latest and best parts and coded to perfection. He made loads of different changes most notably sound improvements and battery life increase and his own scheduler with a really good deep sleep. I think at one stage synergye put in fifty hours straight into that device. Only to find out that device was dead in terms of development, I am so happy I got an sgs3 now that this has landed I am busting.
Anyway I digress.
This rom so far is very good, stable as a rock and well implemented.
The codedirex system options are very usefully no unnecessary nonsense. The prop moder has some good options for system tweaks. One of my favorite options is the kill all button you can add to the recent apps screen. The rom uses a minimal amount of ram. The sound levels are spot on and sound great.
Seriously I could ramble on for ages.
The last thing I am gonna say, and I am in no way affiliated with the group, swing these block's a donation if you can. The quality of work is second to none and always coded to the highest standard. I have donated in the past and I will do so again.
Also I am not saying that other developers are below par in anyway, ie teamasek is one of the most up to date devs I have seen. A release almost everyday. Wow.
I am just giving an account of my experience.
Id have to agree with everything you say - easily the most impressive ROM i've tested since leaving stock. Any outstanding bugs in the CM10 tree were barely evident whilst running this ROM. I'm waiting for SuperNexus build 3 then i'll be back onto codefireX nightlies.
I'll be donating! : )
Any new build soon or is this rom already dead?

This is pretty much a one-off to include the strings optimization to Bionic by Bernhard Rosenkraenzer / Linaro.
It also includes the navbar glow fix because why not.
In all other ways it's identical to a CyanogenMod 10.1 nightly build, but obvious disclaimer, I am not responsible if your device catches on fire / disappears / your life is ruined by this build / etc.
Oh, and it still reports 4.2.1 / JOP40D in some places, don't worry, it's 4.2.1_r2 / JOP40G.
Flash it, enjoy it, it runs fine on my device. Feel free to flash over CM nightlies or flash a new nightly over this.
All credit to Google, AOSP, Code Aurora Forum, CyanogenMod, Linaro, etc. (and thanks to EvoXOhio for a tip or two).
I may in the future make builds a regular thing but this was an unmaintainable one-off.

Quick question; what are bionic strings?
Strings optimization to Bionic, which is Android's sort of libc, core C functions.
It's a patch by Bernhard / Linaro which contains more assembly replacements for software C functions that take advantage of the Krait CPU.
From what I can tell this may fix the reason the N4 mysteriously lags behind the DNA in AnTuTu despite the boards having the same hardware -- yes, yes, benchmarks don't matter, but when two boards that should be identical score that different, there perhaps is an issue software level (or benchmark level).
The system "feels" snappier, by quite a bit, to me, but I am wary of placebo and can't advertise this really, you tell me.
I run it with franco.Kernel r61, but stock kernel or any other will be fine as long as you don't use ridiculous settings.
Why does this look so familiar with this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2131454
is this compiled with linaro?
Good job you beat me to the linaro compilation. How did you finally get it working? Last time we PMd you were in the same boat as me.

Why don't you asked the OP of that thread? This OP technically did it first according to the time stamp.
Edit: NVM, that OP just beat me to it.
Sorry Evo (and 0.0), I don't mean to false advertise -- this is not compiled with the Linaro toolchain, it introduces too many build errors at the moment. I meant that the author of the patch committed Linaro-signed code, so I assume he is part of Linaro or something. Just giving credit.
Linaro toolchain is 99% placebo, I doubt you will see any measureable performance difference in benchmarks and if so < 5% and only there, so it's just for fun to try to force it to work.
It seems like Evo's managed to figure it out, if it ends up working he will probably post it. I must sleep, for then I must work.
donkeyhitman, Evo and I both started trying to get this to work a little while ago and talked a little, I stayed up all night to upload it

CM hasn't added the Bionic patch yet AFAIK.
If fun things find their way into future nightlies but still no Bionic patch, I'll update this.
You can go between nightlies and this with no issue though, it's basically a nightly.
Keep it up man, I doubt CM will add the bionic patches anytime soon

What is Carbon rom ?

CarbonRom is an aftermarket firmware based on the Android Open Source Project. The team is composed of former members of Team Liquid who have forked the code in an attempt to bring greater speed, better coding, and full authorship to code. We are in no way affiliated with Liquid0624. The rom was forked at Liquid beta 3.2.1 and has since undergone major code changes and modifications. Please note that on some devices the kernel is not yet linaro compiled.
We are dedicated to fast, stable, and feature-filled roms, honesty and communication with our users, and openness with our code.

Our next goal is to put together a build machine, and we need your help. Why do we need a server? Well, a few reasons. The first is the most obvious - we'd like to build more frequently and need the hardware to support it. That means drive space and speed. The more of each we have, the more we can say "hey let's crank out a build," and throw it up on goo so you see an update in goomanager. Right now, building is a pretty intensive all-day process. The second reason is stability. Building from a development machine means that the environment itself is less stable. This translates into, again, fewer builds and more work to make them. Faster building means we can build for more devices, too. All this free time means we can do more cool stuff. We've got a lot of great ideas coming, and every bit of time we can get to work on them means a better rom for you. If you've enjoyed Carbon, please consider a donation toward this goal. Thank you, and we hope you continue to enjoy Carbon!

it doesnt support sd data like the emulated sdcard on Dark Fantasy1.hope you could fix these issues.this rom is really nice especially when you turn on carbon in settings.nice work but not for me just yet.
Thanks gentlemen! I really like this ROM on my p3113. The way it looks and all the customization are great! I actually got it set up in tabletui just the way I like, and the quick settings panel works very well in this mode too. Expanded desktop and PIE seem to work very well too. I've spent the last few hours seeing if I could get it all set just the way I would want it, and I think I can.:good: There is a little glitch on rotating the screen, where the screen blinks black for a second. But, everything else I tried seemed good. I am back to cm for now, but I do really like this and will likely be back. Thanks again, and keep up the great work.
Edit: i should add that my mic wouldn't work for voice search either, even after updating.
Gonna try it.

Great ROM but I can't play any music file. No difference if it's FLAC or MP3. I tried Apollo and PlayerPro.
Any ideas?

Very good ROM. This is my new favourite. Goodbye cyanogenmod. Is there a way to fix the app drawer in nova launcher?

Please provide a P3100 version! Lots of people waiting.
Great ROM. I'm willing to keep it. Found problems: microphone not working at all and no sound is played (no music, alarm, tunes). Can you make a fix? Thanks.

I have noticed a bug where when you press the multitasking button it shows a random app being minimized. Even in the launcher. Wait left and right buttons when the keyboard is showing? OMG THIS IS THE BEST ROM EVER.
Edit: sound doesn't work. Back to cm.

Wow, great looking rom with lots of cool useful features. However, sound not working and from what I've tried so far, neither is Netflix, HBO Go, Youtube and of course music apps.
Maybe all related to the no sound issue, once these bugs are fixed, this has the makings of an excellent rom. Thanks for your work so far.
EDIT: I didn't mean that just the sound doesn't work on Netflix, Youtube and HBO GO, I could not get working video on any of them.

Which one to choose launcher? Both look the same so I do not know you better
Nova launcher has more customizations and stuff. Like ICS transitions and transparent app drawer. The launcher is the stock launcher from Google. I prefer Nova.
Sent from my GT-P3113 with xda app.
It was not until I noticed that the sound does not work and applications such as youtube and others that sound requires. Unfortunately, as there mate Luigi2012SM64DS I also go back to Cm10.1 waiting for the amendments to the Carbon rom. As for the launcher for now think about it
Any fix being released?

Unofficial Carbon Rom Built by Sevenup30 & Tuxafgmur
What is Carbon rom ?
dg4prez said:
CarbonRom is an aftermarket firmware based on the Android Open Source Project. The team is composed of former members of Team Liquid who have forked the code in an attempt to bring greater speed, better coding, and full authorship to code. We are in no way affiliated with Liquid0624. The rom was forked at Liquid beta 3.2.1 and has since undergone major code changes and modifications. Please note that on some devices the kernel is not yet linaro compiled.
We are dedicated to fast, stable, and feature-filled roms, honesty and communication with our users, and openness with our code. We like frequent builds, with the very latest and greatest hardware support and fixes. We strive to not only provide you with the best rom we can build, but also to give back to the Android community and our fellow developers. For us, this is about creating something we can be proud of and hope you will enjoy.
Please feel free to look at, build, and use our code on CarbonDev GitHub.
We would like to thank CyanogenMod for their device trees, framework/settings mods and their code that was incorporated into this project. We also extend our gratitude to the devs whose code that we have incorporated. Proper authorship has been maintained and can be viewed on our repository.
Special thanks also go to Slim Rom for some of their features, PA, AOKP, and anyone else we may have borrowed commits from that hasn't been mentioned here. If you feel you have been unfairly left out, please - let us know.
While we make every effort to test these builds as much as possible, we are not responsible for anything that may happen to your device, family, pets, or perception of reality. We ask that you do your part to know your device and know how to recover from problems before you flash! If you have questions, ask your fellow users or ask us in #teamcarbon on freenode IRC.

Our next goal is to put together a build machine, and we need your help. Why do we need a server? Well, a few reasons. The first is the most obvious - we'd like to build more frequently and need the hardware to support it. That means drive space and speed. The more of each we have, the more we can say "hey let's crank out a build," and throw it up on goo so you see an update in goomanager. Right now, building is a pretty intensive all-day process. The second reason is stability. Building from a development machine means that the environment itself is less stable. This translates into, again, fewer builds and more work to make them. Faster building means we can build for more devices, too. All this free time means we can do more cool stuff. We've got a lot of great ideas coming, and every bit of time we can get to work on them means a better rom for you. If you've enjoyed Carbon, please consider a donation toward this goal. Thank you, and we hope you continue to enjoy Carbon!

Hi, i talked to tuxafgmur and i decide to build for p311x since they are extremely the same.
Monfro try to port the build, and a port is not the same result as a build, so i hope you ll enjoy the rom. On p5110 it s working very well .
Sound should be working i can t try myself . but previous user dont report bug about sound.

I believe the Performance Control is buggy. Last night I had all sorts of trouble with my tab (P3113) either constantly freezing or rebooting. I did a complete wipe before installing, I even downloaded the rom again and re-installed but still the same issues.
Then I went into settings and saw that in Performance Control, my tab was at 1480 default max and probably my CPU couldn't take that setting. So, I changed it to 1200, set it to on boot and the freezing/rebooting stopped. However, a bit later I got another freeze and when I checked Performance Control, it was back to 1480.
I unchecked set on boot in Performance Control, downloaded No Frills CPU (free from Play Store) and set my tab to 300/1200 and all the freezing/rebooting has stopped. I always liked No Frills CPU, really excellent app.

I agree, i have had to do that on other ROMs.
For some reason i cant even get this ROM to boot. Ill have to try and DL it again later. Perhaps, it was just a bad DL, because i see others are able to get it to boot and i have no probs with other ROMs, so that would be my guess.

I also had a heckuva' time getting it to initially boot. it would hang and than after a hard reset, would make it into the OS and either freeze or reboot. If you can successfully get it to boot into the OS, immediately change the CPU in Performance control to max 1200 and then get an app like No Frills and lock it in. That seemed to stabilize it for me. I also skipped setting up wifi on the initial startup, as that also seemed to hang my tab, setting up wifi after successfully getting into the OS was fine. But, I still think it all had to do with my GPU defaulting at 1480.
I had no issues with the home button on P3113.

Good idea to get No Frills or something similar for your CPU, as it doesn't look like built-in Performance Control is keeping the settings. Hopefully, sevenup30 will check it out. But, good rom anyway.

Support
We spend an astonishing amount of time developing this software. We can't spend much time on XDA as a result, so if you need support, please try the following:
1) Search. Search, search, search. Yes, you. I don't care how unique or important your question is, it's very likely someone has adressed it already. Especially if you're even close to new at this.
2) Read our FAQ, which can be found on our website. Carbon FAQ
3) Ask a question in your device forum. Someone will no doubt try to help you. Warning: this help may come in the form of telling you it's a dumb question that has been asked before. See step 1 - such are the perils of asking questions when you haven't done the research yourself. Android is about helping yourself.
4) Ask a question on our IRC channel. Connect to #teamcarbon on irc.freenode.net or click here. You'll find several other Carbon fans and usually one or more devs as well. Please be polite.

Yeah, maybe that
Quick question: I'm noticing quite apparent banding on my screen, especially on white background. And occational white noise splash while turning screen on, is it normal or just because I'm using it on XT905? Seems to be kernel related. I'm actually testing out both Gummy and Carbon, both have the same problem.

Should be almost the same since this is just the GSM version of XT907. By apparent I actually mean noticable by human eyes (on while background). It's has to have something to do with the buffer or refresh rate.
Actually all ROMs with minor modification works fine. Not as smooth as I'd hope ie not smoother than debloated stock 4.1, but all things work, sans the occasional white-noise splash while turning screen on and the annoying band morie pattern.
Another question, do you have any plans ditching the emulated sdcard? It's quite pointless with just about 4GB after a full wipe and you have to share the space with apps.
I can't find out the download package of the xt907, is that true? I love carbon team, the black theme looks really nice

We are working on migrating to a new download site + mirror... as our infrastructure was not up to the task (downloads were REALLY slow).
Hopefully the new setup can handle the load! I'll upload the last build to a mirror.
The banding issue affects all 4.4 roms. I don't know the technical details but it seems 3D acceleration is about 50% slower than 4.2 roms. Since nearly everything is composted in the GPU now, everything seems to suffer from poor frame rates and other graphical anomalies.
which is going to be better as a daily driver this one, or the JB?

Personally I would not recommend anything above 4.2.2/CM10.1 at this stage.
It's fine if you want a test drive, and it's stable enough to be a daily driver.
But it's not as fast and feature-complete. Unless you desperately want the new things (ART etc),
you might have to wait for a while (after official kk for RAZR M/HD) before KitKat roms really take off.

I don't know, I prefer the 4.4 ROMs over 4.2. Personally faster for me. It's just right now if people want a lot of features there aren't going to be as many in 4.4 as there are for 4.2, though that will change. It's only because obviously JB has been out longer, but honestly feature-wise things are catching up.
flashing kitkat, because jb was force close city, hopefully its stable

KitKat is buggier than JB4.2 with our dated kernel/driver, that's a fact. For me the banding issue is a showstopper, period. Feature-wise, I do agree it's getting better, but we live in the moment don't we? Like I said, it's cool if you use it just to test it out, you might even be of help to the devs in identifying bugs.
But if you are asking the question "should I use this as my daily driver", the answer is probably no, otherwise you wouldn't be asking the question in the first place.
the kitkat rom seems to be running ok so far

Is there an error with the reported signal in the battery options? Cell standby shows very high percentage time without signal, upwards of %50. On stock based roms I have never seen more than %1 time without signal.
