[ROM][UB][4.4.4][ZL][.230][OTA] Carbon Rom KK Unofficial {built from source}

[CokeJunkee]

Will there be any updates to this wonderful rom in the future?
It is one of the best 4.4.4 roms out there. Some people tend to prefer kitkat over lollipop..

First of all, before saying its not being flashed, why don't u read xda a bit?
U can't flash aosp/cm/based roms from a recovery for stock rom.
Take a cm11 boot.img, boot in recovery, make wipes, flash rom and gapps...
In other words...follow steps from first post instead of trying your steps..
Cheers

I tried to fast boot flash the boot.img and after that when try to go into the cwm (its a pink color light in device then holding up arrow to enter cwm - the light color changes into orange and nothing happens black screen) it fails, even reboot with normal startup wont work and getting stucked in the wave lading screen on device all the time, not into the the screen... so have to flash the stock rom again...

Tried twice but failed both of the time.. please suggest some solution sir

You have to flash the boot.img from Build 35.
Build 36-38 have no working recovery.
Build 35 runs great btw

Sir 1 more thing I need help with though it is a bit off topic from this ROM..
I tried to backup my system with CWM and TWRP both, but in an experiment while i tried to restore those 2 backups from CWM or TWRP it is unable to show the file or detect the file, just showing the folders... but i checked in root explorer that files are there though my recovery is unable to detect and restore them..

Can you please enlighten me a bit... I was ahving a LG G2X (T-Mobile USA) and things are much more easier there and everything worked like a charm, but in this Xperia its really a bit hectic and confusing for non developers (users only) like me..

If you can give me a knowledge about this it will be a real help

Well, as I said, flash boot.img from build 35 and you will have a perfectly working TWRP.
I tried backing up and restoring and everything works fine. Can't tell you about other roms/recoveries.
Depending on which rom and nightly you use, the recovery might not work properly because of build failure.
You should clean flash (wipe system, cache, dalvik). Afterwards you can start to restore your apps with Titanium one by one.

Maybe at somebody versions of these firmwares with 35 on 38 have remained? Old links all already non-working.
