[ROM] Carbon: Co2 Edition (V1.1) - Oxygen + Ics Mix [Aosp]

ok, so ill start by saying this is not my work, and i have no affiliation with the dev, but i have been running this rom for the past 3-4 weeks without any hiccups what-so-ever and great battery life & performance, and figured id share the awesomeness with those who dont know about it. this rom is very fast, smooth, and very lightweight. a lot of the goodies have been left alone, including long-press back to kill foreground app! yippy! i didnt see any other threads on here, and figured id post this for the good of the n00b, like me. i have no dev skillz, so posting any questions or concerns in this thread is pointless.

Detect Carrier IQ on Android phones with Voodoo Carrier IQ Detector App

A great app by Supercurio to detect Carrier IQ (CIQ)!
See it in action here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wW_i4Qdq1bg

I installed this yesterday and it said that I have some CIQ .so files. And this was on a noCIQ ROM. I'm sure the .so files can't execute anything but I'm just wondering why they were left behind?

Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App

Can someone tell me what this means? Voodoo found something, and I'm just trying to figure out exactly what it means, so I can go to my Service Provider whom recently stated that they do not use it on our devices.
Here is the the record it found:
Test for: Linux kernel driver

Comes up clean on my phone. I get a 170 which means it is there, but inactive.

I am shocked it took people this long to care about CarrierIQ. Did anyone notice how much they have received in funding? Here's a link from 3 years ago. http://www.fiercemobilecontent.com/story/carrier-iq-closes-20-million-funding-round/2009-01-28 . Why would someone pay that much money each year to fund something that supposedly does nothing? I have stayed on SRF 1.2 ever since k0nane removed CIQ. Glad to see the new ROMs are hip to privacy now. I have seen some really stupid news stories attempting to say that it helps with integration, like a sneaky Siri. No it does not, it runs silently and offers no benefits to the end user. It collects and sells your information to its corporate financiers. Its like digital Glengarry leads.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App

I actually just heard about this app yesterday and tested it with several ROMs. Curiously I always got a score of 270, though it said CIQ was apparently inactive, except for ACS ICS 5.5, in which it said it was ACTIVE! That surprised me.

If CarrierIQ has you worried about your privacy, then you should Google "Cellebrite UFED" and try to remember if a cop ever had your phone in their possession for about a minute.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App

I just tried this out -- it found CarrierIQ and said it was active. Considering I'm only on rooted stock Gingerbread at the moment, I'm not really surprised. The score was 440, FWIW. I'm planning to move to a custom ROM that will get rid of CIQ, so I shouldn't have it around too much longer. Just got to work out some details, like backup/restore plans and picking a ROM (the Mostly Stock one seems like a nice beginner option).
Also, it may be worth noting that the app description says, "Results cannot be blindly trusted but the accuracy is decent already." There are other similar CIQ detection apps, too -- Carrier IQ Detector (by Lookout Labs), for example. I'm not sure how well they do compared to each other, but it's probably good that they're available and more details about CIQ are coming out into the open.

ZRAM??? What is it and what are the side effects of using it?

Hi guys,
I recently upgraded to CM9 FXP128 and there are some features in the Performance tab of settings, that i dont understand.
First of all what is zRam? and what are the side effects of using it?
There are also two other features (Allow purging of assets, Kernel samepage merging). SHould i use them? Are they useful? What are the side effects?
Thanks a lot

Why dont you look it up on http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/ or search around on xda, anyways never heard of it but im currently using CM7.2
there are really no side effects, unless you do something bad

If I remember correctly its compressed ram, but like stated above go look at the websites and SEARCH

There you go, compressed swap inside ram, essentially you get more ram....

But when you say faster, will it die within 2 - 3 years, or longer like 7-8 years? I'm using 18% compressed so yeah.

Flash only has so many read and writes before they start dying, it'll still probably last you like 2 year's

Can we use v6 supercharger ?

I used have G2x from tmobile. I was wondering if any one has tried to use the V6 super charger script. If what were your results?

Yeah you can. I'm using it. What I see is better memory management. Having 12 apps open in my recent, going from the 12 to the second or first, it doesn't reload. its there just as I left it. I didn't see this without the mod so it works.

No. It wont do anything. Supercharger script merely adjust minfree values(androids default app cleaner) when available memory reaches a certain level, android automatically closes background processes to free memory and keep things lag free.

This is actually a reverse affect caused because the minfree settings you chose were less than what the default settings were. This is not the intended result of the v6 supercharger script.

You should get a clue.
Dozens of tools tweak minfrees.
big deal.
But nothing does what supercharger does.
I think that osmosizzz must have also used the maximum overdrive multitasking that boost the hardcoded app limits.
And there's nothing else like that either.

Common people let's get along. Well I tried the mod on my last 4 phones including this one and immediately I see better memory management. The thing is that zep has included so much more in the work than just tweak min free. Yeah there are dozens of tools that tweak min frees but his does more. Right now I have 11 apps in my residents and my ram has locked at 0.93GB. That didn't happen without the mod. My ram would always hover 1.2 or 1.3 GB with 7 apps in my rescent. If I were to switch between any apps right now, they will not reload. Also something I didn't see before the mod. Now as to me having the app head raised, I just went through the script as I always did and I always had the same outcome with every phone I've tried it with. Just my 50 cents on it

You were totally wrong to begin with.
But since you're familiar with my work, you actually admit to knowingly spread totally false information.
Or maybe you just don't "get it" and it all goes over your head.

Again with the insults..
The op asked about the supercharger script, not about the multitasking mod. Your original v6 supercharger script is used for devices with low memory and for people experiencing lag (it's even in your sig) our devices have an incredible amount of memory, thus never having lag. Therefore the v6 supercharger script won't really do much. Plus when I used your script on my HTC touch pro 2, all it did was adjust minfree values to sooner clean up things providing more resources. Yes it also has bulletproofing app options, but that's not what the original question was.

What is a good rom for speed, stability and no freezing!?

I'm on cm10.1 and it seems to always freeze and slow down which takes me more time to make calls or get to texts and send them. Get a lot of wait/close notifications and I want to know if there is just a simple epic 4g rom that will respond quickly and not freeze on me when I'm trying to get a girls number for example!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda app-developers app

Never got such things in CM10.1 for all 3 devices I installed it on, but if your goal is that simple, reverting to CM7 (highly recommended, speediest of all ROMs I've experienced, because it's GINGERBREAD) or even stock FC09/FC19 is a good idea.

Why do people always ask these questions? Try roms out on your device and find the answers yourself! Each device responds differently.

Because every phone reacts different to every ROM. My epic hated cm7, but everybody here loved it. You have to try several different ones out for yourself and see which one you and your phone like best.

You may not be a new XDA user or new to flashing, but you have two replies here saying why answering this question is moot.
Either follow Andy's suggestion, or follow mine and frost's and flash roms until you find what works best for you & your device. Plain and simple, lol.
It probably looks like I'm being an asshole here, but we've had this asked so many times over the nearly 4 years this phone has been in production. It got old years ago, and the answer never changed.

Peace out guys, not everyone's a flashaholic I know, but yeah I had been one for about a year and tried so many ROMs so that's why I have a suggestion. If @dertdezzy just lacks time like I do now, then forgive him and let him fetch my answer and enjoy GB, but meanwhile @nikon120 's got a point in there, if there's time you should really use your brain and hand to sort these subjective things out.
Maybe it's time to shut this thread?

Come on, an epic 4g is an epic 4g they are not built differently one at a time..if the same rom works different for some people then its because they are doing something different..I'm sure there's a few roms that people in general agree on as one of the most stable, or the most lag free for example..just in general of course..its not that serious to where I have time to flash a new rom everyday, restore all my settings and set ups just to find the "perfect" rom for me

Actually no. There are differences based on tolerances on how the die is cut for the processors. Some could handle overclocking to 1.5Ghz and others could go no higher than 1.2Ghz. I have 2 no longer in service and at one time running identical software my computer would only recognize one...reinstalled drivers on computer and both were recognized again, Agreed that in most cases it is something different in software and matching up phone for phone in a purely clean flash should yield same results. Now throw in 3rd party apps and themeing and game over.

Yup you right u right, nuff said! But would cm7 and older roms tend to be more what I'm looking for with speed, less lagging and freezing?

They're pretty much stable and good to go. You will have more space for apps on a Gingerbread rom than a ICS/JellyBean rom. Also you should have less RAM used on Gingerbread than the other types as well.
Really you just have to decide either TouchWiz or CM based. If CM, then which OS type. After that point, it's pretty easy reduce the rom list.

On cm7 for past week or so...PERFECT!! EXACTLY what I needed, thanks to the good response I got
