Are you giving up on Carbon ROM?
More than a month w\o new build. :(
Im not giving up at all man!! , im working like a dog on fusion3 devices, u can check all my threads are stopped due to lack of ril on this platform; wich im actually using for my Z and tabZ, once it will be fixed (as cm doesn t help at all on this platform) i will work back on other roms/platforms.
There's also something sure, next update will be 5.0 as im not working anymore (as all other devs) on KK.
I can give an update! But it will be almost the same as carbon kk sources doesn t update...upgraded to LP.

Nice rom Alx31TLse. Just installed and playing with it as I got fed up with the stock one! So KitKat development will stop
once Carbon developers switch to Lollipop ?

They already upgraded to LP...im just stucked with my device îssues...give me some time will build back soon

Looking forward to the last KK build I guess then!

By the way I noticed that Calendar app is missing from your builds as well as the init.d directory and related lines in updater-script.
But init.d support is there if you add them manually,

Yep I know! I found one problem with bluetooth. I tried pairing the phone with ford's audio sync and I get frequent disconnects and bluetooth process crashing. Is this a known bug ? Do you know if it can be fixed somehow ?
With CM nightlies I did not have such issue but I prefer to use Carbon.

Recently I tried newest CM11 builds... and I must said I'm pleased with it.
It's fast and stable (for now) and have some neat features added since I tried it last time.
But as Carbon spoiled me, I miss few features like Pocket ready (really usefull, because you don't have to press Power button all the time) :p
and some eycandies like toast msg animation and ListView animations.

Well, the question is... would you be so kind to reconsider updating your sources with latest CM11
and build one last 25th build of Carbon ROM for Xperia SP
for us, users, fans, supporters and admirers of Carbon ROM :fingers-crossed:

    Hi to all of you, Huashan owners.
    Let me introduce CarbonRom, Unofficial: since SP is not officially supported by Carbon team. Obviously this is for UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER
    This is only my compilation, all the real work has been done by Team Carbon

    About Carbon

    CarbonRom is an aftermarket firmware based on the Android Open Source Project. 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.

    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 goo.im page linked above. It's new, but expanding fast. Just like us!

    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) Join our G+ Community: http://community.carbon-rom.com This is where we spend the bulk of our time and the best way to reach us and other community members. We update and frequent this community far more than XDA, simply due to time constraints and the convenience of G+.

    5) 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.
