[8.1.x][OFFICIAL][WEEKLIES] CarbonROM | cr-6.1 [tissot][11-08-18]

[VenkatVV]

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, build, and use our code at CarbonROM's GitHub... and at CarbonROM Gerrit.

Disclaimer:
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!

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) Join our Discord server! There, you can connect with other Carbon users and our developers, and you can get quicker responses to your bug reports. The invite link is right below.

Notice:
You need to flash FIX everytime you flash the ROM, for the ROM to get flashed and support OTA updates.
The ROM doesn't tinker with the persist partition and hence it won't alter your MAC addresses don't you worry about it and don't keep asking about that in the thread again and again.
And yeah, the VoLTE icon is missing but VoLTE works just fine, You don't need to worry about that too.

What do you mean "selinux is not fully functional"?
I'm downloading with very slow speed, about 20kbps , test both on 4G and wired internet, took me 14hrs to finish

What do you mean selinux is not "fully functioning". It is set to enforcing and everything is working fine. What else do you mean?

 

[sandyboi]

Can we make feature requests here? If yes. Is it possible to add inbuilt themes like many other ROMs have?

 

[coremania]

What is this fix for ??? What does it fix ???
Why it won't flash without ??? Didn't see that before.
Are you able to suppress caller ID with this rom or does it end to network or simcard error ?

"Carbon ROM Official builds are signed with custom keys like our stock ROM so inorder to flash the ROM it needs to verify the key for which though can be surpassed if we update the TWRP( it will take for me to do that) so, that fix.zip file replaces the key and adds OTA support to the ROM." ~ This is what developer told me when I asked him the same question.
And I didn't understand the suppress caller ID part. Can you elaborate?

Thanks for info.
For the caller id, open your phone app and try to suppress your number on outgoing calls. On all custom roms I get Network or simcard error and the option stays grey. It only work on every stock rom so far. Doesn't matter which phone app i use, doesn't matter which gapps I flash.

 

[Rakibboss]

Navigation bar isn't working

 

[neyvermore]

Thanks for the rom. Does it have a true OTA or does it only download a zip we must then flash via TWRP?
Also, is it possible to add Live Display instead of Night light?

It has OTA, but he said he needs to fix TWRP first to support OTA.

 

[cherryb8844]

most awaited rom finally on the ground.
Thanks CarbonRom team.
Edit-
After flashing the ROM it's not boot normally I forced it by pressing power key after it boot it's not detecting sim card so I can complete the setup wizard I'm only network data user no WiFi. I did clean flash wipe system wipe data wipe delvik and art cache then flash fix.zip, rom.zip, twrp.zip reboot to twrp flash gapps then mazisk 16.0.
I did flash mazisk first then gapps but no luck please correct me where I'm wrong
