• If you are experiencing issues logging in, we moved to a new and more secure software and older account passwords were not able to be migrated. We recommend trying to reset your password, then contacting us if there are issues.
  • 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

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 Github and at Gerrit.

Pre-Disclaimer:
THIS IS AN UNOFFICIAL BUILD. Please keep any problems with those builds in this thread, we don't accept any bug reports for unofficial builds anywhere else.

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.
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.

Notice:
Before you flash, backup everything important.


Download and Installing:
Carbon Pie ROM at HERE
Latest GAPPs http://opengapps.org (Optional)
For root, I really recommended using Magisk (Optional)
Wipe system, dalvik/art cache, cache, data partition
Flash Carbon Rom, GAPPs and Magisk through latest TWRP.
Reboot your device and enjoy Carbon Rom.

I have a problem with booting this rom (not only this actually). On TWRP 3.3.0.0 I've wiped everything (even with with format data, where you have to write "yes"), later I'm flashing rom and opengapps (latest). Flashing procedure is going fine without errors. I'm rebooting the phone and carbon boot logo appears. Rom loads for 7-8 minutes (or maybe more) and nothing happens. The same situation is with latest Arrow-OS and Ressurection Remix from 2nd April. Boot animation appears and stays like this for 7-8 minutes and rom is not loading. Before wipes I had latest xiaomi.eu beta in regard of firmware and vendor.

Edit: When I'm flashing xiaomi.eu, globe rom or any other MIUI based rom it runs perfectly.

The question is WTF?!

Do not use latest vendor+fw. It causes bootloops. Use the ones that are a bit older.

V10.2.2.0.PDGMIXM - 9.0 - 2019-03-13 - Global - this one should be fine? Do i have to flash full rom or firmware from https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com will be fine?

So I have to flash the firmware / reboot TWRP / and flash rom or I have to do it directly without rebooting TWRP?
