[ROM][AOSP][Nightly/Release] CarbonRom KitKat [n7000]

mattmanwrx · Apr 18, 2013

Hi all, I'm a Carbon Rom team member, and just got my hands on a second hand n7000, so am now the maintainer for this device...

When I get home I will root and flash carbon, and try to get the thread out into my name (for easier conscience (easier to see the OP))...

where can i find the launcher settings please ? i want hide the dock and google search bar ....

do notification bar and quick setting toggles get merged in tablet ui ?

We have the stock android launcher, install a 3rd party launcher (like Nova launcher) for your request..

The tab ui does have quick settings

I hope this rom stays w/o any music player...use your own music player is better than to have a primary bloat player.

We took Apollo out as it was buggy... I know the stock android player is on the market, but not sure if it is available in all countries... I guess users can always get it from XDA though

Haven't tried the ROM yet (I'm downloading right now ) but +1, the swipe thingy is super awesome. Please add it

As said by moviecut, it is in the rom, you must swipe at the bottom bar (the bit that turns blue)

Yes, I know that, but swiping on the bottom bar is a bit hard because if you're not careful, you'll end up activating pie.
It's not a must have feature, but I'd be happy if we were able to swipe on the notification drawer itself, and not only on the bottom bar.
Once again, thank you for this super awesome ROM

Hi all, pretty quiet thread, but wondering if anyone has worked out how to add language packs.. I'm keen to get English (Australia) working as it effects some applications.

I looked at Locale in the market and it didnt work...

Matt

Strange, I have English (Australian) on my phone now (HTC one x) and they use the same language files, so it should be there... However, I cannot confirm until I actually flash carbon on the note later on tonight...

swipe works! but it is on the bottom bar of the notification (the bit that turns blue) (i asked this in the irc-chat, thank you mattmanwerx for your answer!)

It actually little heps, its very narrow area and in the bottom of the screen. If u'r using pie (with "bottom gravity") u can't swipe that area at all...

If swipe area was designed as total notification drawer area except current notifications rows it would be great!!

Issues after installation 1.6v. Need Help

This is my first rom installation ever. And I am liking this rom very much. Every thing is in working at amazing speed.

Installed 1.6v

But got few problems

1) Phone dial-er is crashing. It says Contacts has stopped.

2) Phone got hanged and went into dead mode 3 times in a day. Pressed the power for few seconds for restart and battery went to 10% from 70.

3) Screen got flicked (like brightness changed rapidly. It was ok after restart).

Please suggest any resolution.

Thanks

Since you are saying this is your first time flashing a ROM, let me explain to you the steps you should follow, maybe you missed something along the way.

On Recovery (ClockWorkMod, or CWM) do the following:

- Do a "Wipe data/Factory Reset"
- Go to "Advanced" and then do a "Wipe Dalvik's Cache"
- Then go to "Mounts and Storage" and then wipe the following: "System" and "Preload"
- Flash the ROM
- Flash Gapps (Make sure you are using the lastest version: http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip)
- Reboot

Let the phone reboot normally and don't touch it for at least 5 minutes until the ROM "settles" down, then continue with the configuration.

I followed exactly same steps as mentioned above. Except I did not waited for 5 minutes after installation. I started playing with the rom as soon as it booted up. Will try to do full wipe again

Still the same problems?, if so, try to take the SIM Card out before you flash the ROM. See if the problems persist.

Did u restore call list? Samsung has a different way of doing it than aosp, and if restoring call list, it will make contacts force close (enters a rejected call status, instead of just aosps received made and missed)..

When I set a custom image as lockscreen wallpaper, the image is stretched vertically. I didn't have this issue before. I full wiped and flashed April 20th nightly, problem is still there. Please help. This is really big to me

Some Observation

Observations after installing Carbon rom : -

1) 200 MHz freq not in use at all instead 1400 & 800 MHz being used in usage of 7 hours.

2) Setting : Battery Status : Awake status bar not showing anything.. in usage for 7 hours.

Is this due to some performance settings.

If yes then I think phone is getting heated alot and battery is draining alot while using. Otherwise its gr8 there is no wakelock issue present

Please suggest
