[8.1.x][WEEKLIES] CarbonROM | cr-6.1 [bacon]

[throwback1718]

I guess I must be doing something wrong. I'm on the latest build. Maybe I'll try an older build.

It oddly enough works when I have a headphone in. Even when the headphones don't have A mic. So I've been walking with a headset

Also what is the battery life looking like for you guys? I have massive drain and phone staying awake. Barely getting 2 hours SOT. Even after upgrading the kennel and making tweaks via Magisk. Any suggestions?

U could try reflashing just the Rom for the speaker issue.. Battery is similar for me too.. Phone's 3 years old now.. Can't expect too much from it's battery. The fact that it can still runs apps smoothly is an advantage.

I have to reconnect to my WiFi after sometime. The qs tile shows connected but when I try to surf or just open YouTube....it shown you're offline. Then I have to tap WiFi qs tile again to turn it on. Anyone facing this issue?

Great point about the battery being old. But prior to to switching, the battery life was much better and the phone is awake most of the time now. so I believe there may be a cure

Battery life was poor from the initial versions of Carbon ROM, hope Pie with its new features can provide better SOT for ageing OPO.

Hi I came from cer droid. Clean flashed, i.e no dirty flashing and on 6.1 - 2326 build. I get random restarts could be anytime and at any app. Yesterday I noticed some of the pics i took were just blank thumbnail showed me black when i opened it it was still black. Any idea what could lead to it?

Did you flash only the room?

Nope gapps pico too.

Nope? Just do a clean install, boot, the go the recovery again and flash gapps e boot again. In the end, be happy

i don't know why, but over the past few weeks, my google apps have been silently, one by one been getting murdered by this rom, in that they no longer launch, just get the "stopped working" screen. happens for any given google app, and i only noticed it recently when i saw photos hadn't backed up in a long time. then today, i try to open chrome, it fails, play store fails, amazing experience.
and the default browser on this rom is infuriating like no other. who ever heard of scrolling up? lol no you don't want that, you want to refresh the page, see the top briefly, then come right back down here again, right?

 

[dhruvaz]

Yeah i meant that. I did flash rom and gapps but not at the same time. After flashing zillions of time i'm familiar with the process

Does this work properly with an encrypted phone and only microG instead of GApps? And does it get frequent security patches?

Edit: Seems it does work fine. Thanks for this great ROM. When installing updates, is a cache/dalvik cache wipe needed?

Ok.

And now? Is working?

One small quirk, signature spoofing for microG is not supported or at least I cannot find a way to enable it. Found it, too...

It's supported. I don't use it though.

As soon as a security patch is there from Google, we update the rom. You can expect a build in a few days after that.

Sounds like you are in desperate need of a clean flash. I have ZERO problems you are experiencing.
Do a clean flash, don't use exposed and you should remain problem free.

Maybe in P. We won't add new features in O.

By the way, a new release build with September security patches is there.
