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.

EDIT. Working great! All features have been working as advertised, noticed a couple of things. Speaker volume is very low, probably a cm thing. Also for those of you who use agni kernel I was having difficulty installing it on this ROM. Stock kernel running fine. Good work with this easily acceptable as a daily driver

Love this! But I couldn't get root after an install. Titanium backup wouldn't work! :[

Awesome that worked for me. Now that everything is working, some things aren't working lol. On a clean install, themes provider is force closing, and I'm getting some random reboots. Other than that it's pretty solid!

Good to hear. I don't personally use theme checker so I can't chime in on that, but I'm yet to have a reboot. Check to see if you have a bad download. Download the app in the playstore "md5 checker" and load your zip in there. Here's my md5 (not official one) and see if they match.

I simply did the basic wipe in twrp, installed the ROM, and then installed the paranoid android 0 day minimal gapps. Good luck :)

Why am I left with no signal after installing any 4.4 rom? As soon as I go back, I'm fine.

I don't use theme checker either, but every once in a while the force close message pops up anyway. The md5 is the same. Unfortunately the reboots are happening a lot, almost always when I turn the screen off. I have to go back to CM for now but I'll be keeping my eye on this.

    Theme manager was force closing for me as well... I had to go back to an old version of gummy for now. It seems as the newest gummys are doing it as well... weird

    You try clearing data on theme chooser? Someone donated a Note 2 to Carbon but it has a locked Bootloader. So I'm trying to find someone that will trade me a Note 2 that hasn't been updated to 4.3. Sucks because I can't really troubleshoot any issues since I can only root the device :banghead:

    Has anyone been able to get the backlight for the keys to say permanently off? I have it disabled but they still light up every time, not a huge deal but just wanted to get some feedback.

    System Settings > Carbon Fibers > Device Tunables > Advanced Settings > Screen

    its at the bottom of screen under Touchkeys, just untick the backlight option....

    I found 2 ways of doing it and it looks like you found the 1st which doesn't work, the one I described I think takes precedence.

    Is art working proper?

    It's not. Boot-loop until you clean install. Seems to be the norm for custom roms now :p
