  • Nearly done! Migration cleanup is mostly done. There are a small number of issues left that we continue to work on, but all the heavy lifting is done. We still would love to hear feedback over at this thread and also check out the new XDA app! Thanks and we hope you enjoy the new forums, and thanks for your support of XDA <3

About Carbon

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 at, build, and use our code on CarbonDev GitHub. and on our Gerrit CarbonDev Gerrit.

We would like to thank CyanogenMod for their device trees, framework/settings mods and their code that was incorporated into this project. We also extend our gratitude to the devs whose code that we have incorporated. Proper authorship has been maintained whenever possible and can be viewed on our repository.

Special thanks also go to Slim Rom for some of their features, PA, AOKP, and anyone else we may have borrowed commits from that hasn't been mentioned here. If you feel you have been unfairly left out, please - let us know.

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! If you have questions, ask your fellow users or ask us in #teamcarbon on freenode IRC.

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.

Thanks Meticulous, for another ROM option for SGP. My son loves your beanstalk ROM performance on his SGP. I like Carbon ROM on my SGP.

I've got the Rom up and running and everything seems to be fine except The settings menu!

Tapping on performance gives me a settings FC every time

The Carbon fibres menus are completely bizarre!
'Device Tunables' is completely blank,
'interface' is blank most of the time but some things pop up on occasion
'Lockscreen' is the same - blank but seemingly at random will show me some options
Navigation' - Blank
Persistence - seems ok!!!!
'Pie' - Blank
'Power Menu' is ok
'Status bar' - under battery sometimes gives me the Navigation Menu, has given battery options once but is usually blank and the other tabs are temperamental.

Anyone else noticed this odd behaviour?

AH! It's something to do with having a split screen settings (>600x1024 in Xposed App Settings) When I switch this off it (mostly) works.

'Device Tunables' is still blank though.. Is it meant to be?

and what is 'Persistence' anyway?
