[ROM] Carbon: Co2 Edition (V1.1) - Oxygen + Ics Mix [Aosp] - Nexus S 4G Android Development

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.

set screen density to 160 and next time use search before you start throwing a pissy fit.
Haha, exactly why people leave Xda, answers like the above.
I know how to Google to change density etc, just thought a tablet based rom would be good. So everything is working correctly from the start.

In the few years I have been using these forums people ask for more and are half as grateful.
Its sad that people aren't bothered to educate themselves and put in the effort to find out something.
I've actually been looking into doing this. I just got my first rom to compile without errors, so it might be a while... I probably won't have this finished in a timely enough manner for the op anyway

This type of conversation is not exclusive to XDA. It happens in most all forum communities including Rootzwiki. As long as people can hide behind a screen name and a keyboard they will become overly narcissistic. The anonymity allows us to be rude, impatient, and condescending without remorse.
If you are not embraced by the community to the degree you feel entitled, then perhaps you suffer from the above. So pause before you blame the community, or their gracious hosts, and consider that honey attracts more flies than vinegar.

Back in the day, and by back in the day I mean 2010, we used to have this thing called "bump"
You'd only be allowed to "bump" once a day to get your thread to the top, and hope someone notices it and responds.

Sad thing is, if he went into the dev or themes section I believe he'd find what he's asking for. Not to mention there's one floating around in rootz as well

Ok maybe I was jumping the gun a bit with the quick post but i didn't think it would get answered until i posted again. So I apologise for that.
I know there are tweaks around but from what I've read there seems to be lots of incompatibility problems..
Just wondered if anyone had thought of creating a solely tablet based ROM - with everything working out of the box.

I think its more about people using this phone as their daily driver and I am not sure if tablet mode works for that.
I believe there is an easy flashible MOD for AOKP that does everything you need for tablet mode. It is just one extra flash so not horribly inconvenient.
I considered it for a moment but I asked myself what is the point really? Outside of a cool YouTube app other tablet apps could be more inconvenient due to actual screen size. Is there more to this than customizing for customazation's sake?

Sent from my Verizon 4G LTE Galaxy Nexus.
This is actually pretty easy to do on your own.
1) Download AOKP BETA 28 and gapps.
2) Download AOKP BETA 28 (Tabletaokp.zip) from http://rootzwiki.com/topic/20451-mod-12-roms-tablet-mode/
3) Extract files (only system folder) from Tabletaokp.zip, open AOKP BETA 28 with winrar(or whatever zip program you use) and gapps. Put the files from Tabletaokp.zip into AOKP BETA 28 zip & gapps as listed below.
3a)In AOKP BETA 28 zip Put build.prop in system folder(overwriting), put system/apps/Phone.apk in system/app folder(overwriting).
3b) In gapps zip put /system/app/GoogleServicesFramework.apk & Phonesky.apk in system/app
4) Install new rom, gapps and have tablet mode from the start (this is actually how i do it)
Would you recommend it? Anything better or worse than phone mode? Such as tablet apps being difficult to read (like a news app), or accidentally taping the wrong icon due to the denser grid?

Well, on my current setup, I flashed everything one by one, and I'm stable. Not a single SOD/RR. Great battery life. However, AOKP JB is fragile, the only way to know is to test it. I'm making a nandroid right now, so I myself can test at around 3:00 PM eastern and report back by dinner time, lol.

Any RR or SODs?
I promised I would get back to you, so I am. So let me start off by saying that it is SUPER smooth. When I first booted it up, it was really smooth. One bug i found though is that data doesn't work. It says in the notification drawer that it is on, but when try to go onto the internet, it doesn't work. Also, there were no SODs or RRs. I also liked the fact that is a like a "lite" ROM. You didn't add too many extra applications. The data is a big problem for me, so once that is fixed, I will use it as my DD. I went back to the ROM I was running before. I am really impressed that on your first release, it only had one bug.

Thanks guys. I'm gonna test it out this afternoon and hopefully figure it out from there.
Edit : I have a educated guess into what the data problem could be, so I'm going to remove speed tweaks for the net.
As for the auto-rotation not working, not sure what to say about that at all. I'll review it when I get back, I'm highly curious to see if I can resolve these bugs. Thanks guys for testing! Hopefully no SOD/RRs yet for anyone!
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
Hello Dev, I think you should remove the word "stable" from your heading. It is misleading. But hey, I am sure you will have this rom up and running nicely. great work.
Why do people keep complaining that is isn't stable? It is pretty stable. I used it for around 20 min. earlier today and no lag, no issues (besides data). It is really nice like I said earlier. Perfect for people who want a ROM without any extra apps.

Edit : Rev 01 should fix the problems. If not, I should have it all fixed by tonight. I'm typing this from college right now, can't wait to go flash it though. AOKP is buttery smooth with great battery life. CPUSleeper + tweaks = even more performance.
However, the biggest two killers you should be wary of are 4G/3G (data) and high screen brightness.

Because it is based on source that has SOD and RR. There have been no core framework or kernel changes, so it inherently has the same issues as the source it is based on.
BTW: SideKick...good job. keep up the good work.
VoiD_Dweller said:
Honestly I dont get why you guys put all these unofficial builds out all the time if they have SOD and RR in the first place.. Great, you can compile a ROM from source that's got broken kernel problems and patch mods in. It's not like anyone is actually changing the core things that fix those SOD/RR problems, besides of course the Aokp and CM peeps.. It just doesn't make sense to me..

Well, seeing as up until very recently team_kang was only releasing builds on a NO ETA cycle. The nightlies give people something to flash and tinker with. Code is merged every night from the team, so we (people lik erik, myself) release nightlies for the community. Now, Sidekick has taken things a step further by providing yet another option for the thankful members of XDA to flash. If you have no intentions on flashing the rom in the OP, i would suggest you move along.
Choice is yours, but I doubt that OP appreciates someone trolling in his thread.
OP updated. Fixed most bugs.

Finally rooted my phone, now its time for a better OS... any suggestions?

It took me a while, but I finally rooted my phone to get rid of the bloatware and to be able to install an ad blocker, now I'm wondering what good OS's there are out there so far? In the past with my Epic 4G, I spent a lot of time trying different OS's and ended up quite frustrated, though mostly because I never really found one I was that happy with and ended up in a situation where I changed OS's so much that I didn't even bother to customize my phone anymore because it would just be a couple of days before I had to start over again. This time around I figured I'd ask the peanut gallery first to get some informed opinions rather than just installing random OS after random OS. I'm looking for something lean, efficient, and stable. Also, and I'm not sure if this is an issue with the S3 like it was with the Epic 4G, but if there are things like CIQ that need to be removed, I would want those features as well.
Thanks.

I actually meant is there a second vote for the rom, but this does bring up another point and that is that I'd prefer something without much theming. I like Jellybean, but I want something that has had all of the bloat stripped away and all of the beneficial tweaks for performance and battery life already in place.

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.

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.

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

SGH-T889 UVBMB4 4.1.2 What is the best roms that work with this phone?

I currently am running Frosty Bean and it is a fine rom. I would like to try others to compare but run into Google login, apn issues etc.
I've done all the wipe dalvik, system cache, etc.. but haven't been able to get any others to settle in and run.
This isnt my first rodeo I've flashed my Lg g2x tons of times. I see the modems vary here by models.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanx XDA

Try Tweaked I use to flash Roms every day and sometimes few times a day when I first brought my phone back in November, but since I found Tweaked I don't have the need to go anywhere else. Is a wonderfull Rom and wonderful dev.

A third on Tweaked 2.3 rom.
two things that got me into tweaked away from jedi series roms
*you can hide that stupid blocking icon when you turn on blocking mode
*WORKING group text messaging!!!!!!!!!
it has all the pluses of Jedi Master 14 and more customization ohh yeah working wifi calling tooo:good::good::good::good::good::good:
Tweaked FTW!! Definitely worth a peak.

one other thing i might add to why i like tweaked over Jedi, low battery notification disable. this is especially usefull when you have a 9300mah ZeroLemon battery, where you can stay at 5% for 8 hours..that beep and nag starting at 15% can lasts for hours on end!!
Yes, go tweaked. The dev is an actual Dev, not just someone who dumps a bunch of random mods on the rom. He actually knows what he is doing. Try it out!

Hey guys, Tweaked is the truth abs by far the best ROM for our phones, but be careful. Some especially this last post are coming off pretty disrespectful to our devs. pmtr3 does some amazing work and a lot of original work. Just don't want this to stay making devs want to quit supporting a community because they feel like it's disrespectful.
By the way xamindar, give it a shot just "dumping random mods" and let me know how stable that turns out. A lot of work goes into even the "basic" ROMs.

If i sounded like i was being disrespectful, I apologize. No way did i mean it to come off that way. I appreciate what YOU Developers do for us. I know i cant do what you guys do. Jedi/pmtr3 roms and kernals are great thats why i use it as a reference standard to compare to.
I should have chose my words better since i didnt think that it would offend someone else. sorry
Tweaked is the business. The dev is super mature, very amazing attitude and personality and his work matches these qualities, bar none. It's also a joy to see a community very, very active. It means that this ROM gets a lot of dialogue in its thread, which leads to great ideas, trials, progress and advancement. I came from another ROM that just went stale. No dialogue. And I've tried other ROMs on XDA which are pretty ingenious and brilliant, but the smoothness of Tweaked, the vision it projects and employs and support it has is amazing. And nothing ever feels broken. More and more conversations are about progression than fixing something that's legitimately broken in the ROM. The Dev is also extremely approachable....if you have ideas, just Private Message (the preferred method) the Dev and you'll see how engaging he becomes. Very, very professional feel to this community. Check it out.

You didn't offend me and I'm no Dev. I'm just trying to learn. My comment was more directed at the other guy who came off very disrespectful (whether meant or not). I don't want people like pmtr3 or the other real devs to get offended. I mean tweaked is the best, but you can never have to many options.

To me, Tweaked is the best fit for my tastes. It's rock solid, and like others have already said here, Dwitherell is amazing and his OCD leads to a very polished final product for us to enjoy. the degree of customization you have is
Unparalleled. Not only options you set when you flash, but also through TSM parts. The initial Lure for me was the ability to hide that damn annoying persistent notification for Smart stay and blocking mode... Etc.
I could go on and on... But really... Flashing is easy and fun... I recommend trying as many as you want and decide for yourself.
Plus... Tweaked had something no other ROM does.... ALEXIA!

Well said. Jedi ROMS are awesome as well. Ptmr3 is one hell of a nice guy as well. I'm grateful for all of our devs here, but those two gentlemen are awesome dudes.

WHAO dude. No need to get offended as I was not directing that towards anyone. I don't think it is very nice of you to throw out other devs names as of trying to defend them for something that wasn't meant towards them either. This can make them look bad.
And your second paragraph is what I am talking about. People who throw random mods together and call it a new rom usually end up creating something very unstable. Point is, tweaked is NOT this.

Again, I'm not offended I just didn't want it to go there of insulting the hard work or devs do. I may have took your quote wrong as saying that's what the other devs do. So I was just thinking of the biggest ROM and dev we had and said that's not what he does. So for the misunderstanding I'm sorry.
All our devs do great work, but I do agree dwitherell is on another level! He originates mods and has been since the DROID charge!
