Hi, is there any screenshot of the ROM? What camera app came on this? And which gapps is recommended for better interaction with the ROM? (sorry by poor english)

Thanks!
Normal camera only (not Gcam). I prefer you use OpenGAps nano version since I'm using that now....

nice work! CarbonROM has always been one of my favorite custom ROMs and it's great to see someone has built a Q version of it for Mi A1.

Having tested it, there are a couple of issues though:
1. The hardware buttons back light are not turned on.
2. Sometimes I have to flick all the way up to unlock the screen. I understand that's how it is in vanilla AOSP, but it would be nice to have it fixed like in LOS.

For the first issue it's the problem with the ROM source I have told them about it hopefully will get a fix. The second issue I been issue I have been experiencing it with other ROMs though...I think it's normal...

Some ROMs do have it fixed like LineageOS or RevengeOS.
And oh, for some reason my LTE doesn't work on this ROM. Like, it recognizes the carrier and I can make normal phone calls. But the data for internet browsing doesn't work.

I noticed that issue for my device too. But mobile data works for my other testers...I'm finding a solution....

I managed to solve mine...It seems like your APN (Access Point Name) is empty you have to add that manually

it can be because while building you haven't selected common_full_phone.mk
(in your device tree .mk file)
the one it calls from vendor i.e
$(call inherit-product, vendor/carbon/config/common_full_phone.mk)
(might you have selected small package that resulted this ) that config is for tablets or mini phones who don't have sim card support
good luck ?

Well Carbon ROM does not have common_full_phone.mk in their vendor sadly. I will try to add that manually. Thanks for the tips!
