[GUIDE] Report Problem and Bug [Proper Way] - Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660

I been wanted to create this thread for longtime because i find that user way of reporting bugs isn't much positive
This lead to particular OP for the Rom Build/Mods/Apps/Themes unable to provide a proper fix
Particular problem is from the user whom take for granted steps & reading just for sake finding for "downloads"

Therefore i would like introduce few steps that make OP & User with their problem easier​
Post at correct forum (Particular Device)
I found that some particular user posted on wrong forum that are not related
Example :: problem on Xperia XXXX ROM on Samsung Forum thread(This Is Improper)
Please Post on the Device Forum that dedicated for your device only
[*]Post at particular Thread that you have encounter problem
If you have a problem/bug to report on XXX Rom.Do Report on XXX Rom Thread & not YYY Rom or other's
If there's a Solution/FAQ Page for the particular rom do report on the thread instead the [DEV] thread
Doesn't require to open a thread on the Android Development Forum.It's just spam at there.We hate it(I mean you not suppose to)
[*]Do Not Use The Private Message Button
Please Never Ever Sent Any PM to developers just to report the bug you encountered.Post it on the particular thread that mentioned
Developers/OP will have an eye on it.Therefore doesn't need to sent pm to report your's
Do appreciate work by the developers & respect they have their own time too.Keep your question on thread
[*]Read OP Pages At least twice
The place that you will gain all the info you should have
Read every single notice/quote/information/instruction/faq/other's written page
Do not just head to the download section and press the download
Get every info on which particular thing you need and what you should do to install it
[*]Follow ALL the instruction given
When the OP Posted Wipe Cache & Dalvik.It mean to select that particular option only
If the OP Posted Use Only Select/Recommend Kernel.Please do only flash/install particular kernel only
Follow each and all instruction properly(No lazyness/Skipping) any one of those
[*]Search through thread whether the similar problem has been reported
Let say you have setting fc's everytime you enable the sound option.Do search before whether other user have reported or not
If The Particular Problem/Bug has been reported.Doesn't need another user to report it.(Duplicating post)
[*]Give Proper Report
Give A Report Such As This
What steps/instruction did you used?
Did you try wipe & cache
Did you tried it more then twice?
What kernel you are running on?
Which version of build you are having problem with
Do Explain the problem clearly.If you have random reboot upon selecting theme manager,
do report that it's due to the theme manager not just saying "I have random reboot"
If possible provide a screenshot
Do provide an adb logcat (everyone on this forum should have at least logcat skill)
This is one of the best answer for the dev/op to fix if you unable to describe all the problem
[*]Do not ask or force the OP/Developers to fix the problem
No matter what problem you are having,no words such as "Please" fix the problem
Developers have their own time,they choose to fix what they want,You don't pay for what you download
[*]Take your third party installation problem away
Let say you have installed a third party mod (Ex: Beats Audio) ,if you encounter any problem please post on the beats audio thread instead
If You having problem by supercharging or installing any third party patch do take to the particular thread or keep it on your own.
[*]Stop Asking Whether Will This Work Or Not
:Facepalm: Please try it yourself or see over comment by user.
If you want to know just install and test it yourself
If you afraid bricking then never go near a development thread.There's always a Risk
[*]Press thanks button to user/devs that helped you
[*]Provide logcats whenever possible
Dmesg & Logcat using simple terminal emulator
Code:
su
dmesg >/mnt/sdcard/dmesg.txt
logcat -d -v time >/mnt/sdcard/logcat.txt
Hope This Clear Enough For All User To Report Problem On What they encounter.
As developer a positive bug report are very useful to us to fix all the problem that we might not noticed
With proper method,this will not just help us to get problem solved but less unwanted post or waste of time
Any suggestion/fix can be made with reply below v
Hope this does what it does.
I recommend all user especially new member that join XDA to read this
We don't want keep reporting 10poster/spam user.Moderator have life too ​
Thanks to Zackconsole for an awesome guide

WB
MOD EDIT: BEFORE POSTING ANY THREAD IN THE DEVELOPMENT SECTION, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING:
If you have developed a ROM, or are working with others to do so, the development forum is somewhere to discuss and share ideas, post useful feedback and logs or crash dumps, and to discuss a common goal developers are trying to achieve.
It is NOT the place to post your question because it gets higher traffic, or because more experienced users frequent it. Doing this just annoys those who are working on the device, and drives them away. Developers don't want to wade through 20 threads of "Help me urgently" to find their threads for porting and fixing camera issues etc. Similarly, if a thread is designated as discussion for developers say, porting a camera fix, please do not post in there asking "When will it be ready?", "Can I flash this yet?" etc. This is both completely disrespectful to those working on the project (you evidently haven't read the important posts in the thread), and also is making it harder for developers to find comments from other developers or testers when required.
Similarly, don't make loads of "Thanks for your work here" posts in an active development thread. It's just as annoying to developers as asking when something will be ready. If a ROM is complete, then go ahead and thank the developer if you wish, but don't go into threads for devs only, and interrupt it to post "thanks". It's basically spamming, and is treated as such.
If you are posting in development, you should have read every sticky and notice there, and should be actively developing or helping in the development of something. Developing isn't installing a ROM, or using a tweak, it's creating a ROM or other hack or tweak. If you haven't read for several days before starting out on XDA, you are likely about to ask something already solved. I registered on XDA when I first wanted to post, and that was to join in a discussion on something. Sure, join up and ask a question, but read the information available in General and Q&A first, as your question will have been asked before. Search is your friend here, become familiar with it.
Regarding when to post in development if you are not actually developing something, there is one occasion where it's acceptable. If you find a leak of a new ROM, which isn't already posted, and you verify it's legitimacy via either running it, or based on the source you obtained it from, then this is assisting in development, and should be posted in development. If you want to ask when a leak will be available use search first, then if not already in discussion, open a thread in general or Q&A.
If you have a problem flashing a ROM, this is NOT related to development. It's up to you to determine if it is specific to a particular ROM, and post useful information in that developer's existing thread for the ROM. If it happens on more than one ROM, and isn't a known issue (remember you should read several times more words than you post), then find out what you are doing wrong. Check guides written by others, try to repeat the problem and see if it happens every time. Something needs to be reproducible to be fixed effectively.
Once you have identified what you need help with go to the device Q&A forum (general if device lacks one), and make a clear, informative thread that explains the issue, and what you have tried doing to fix it. Did you re-download the ROM? Did you ask a friend to flash it for you, to reduce chance of user error? What steps (exactly) did you follow? What errors did you see (exact wording)? Did you double check all the steps? Did you do a wipe or hard reset?
If you make a clear, concise, yet detailed post, you will find help forthcoming, and should get the problem sorted very quickly. If someone suggests you try something, report back on what happened, did it work etc. Then, next time someone has this issue and searches, they will find this and have a verified and tested solution.
So remember... before you start a thread in development, ask yourself what you are developing. If you can't answer, then stop, step away from the post button, and think about where you are posting. Would it be better in General or Q&A, or is some more time with your best friend, search, required?

How to submit a bug.
First of all read the bugs section on our website. If you're bug isn't mentioned then proceed.
When you submit a bug you want to make sure that nothing from your side is causing it.
Otherwise your developer might be hunting a bug which doesn't really exist.
The best way to achieve this is by doing the following.
1. Make a nandroid backup.
2. Perform a full wipe (factory reset + wipe /system)
Now we have two different ways depending on what kind of problem do you're having.
3a. When you're having a problem with a ROM function flash now just the ROM without GAPPS etc. and boot back into the system. You will boot directly onto the homescreen.
3b. When you're having a problem with a 3rd party app in combination with our ROM then flash the ROM and GAPPS.
Boot now back into the system. You will boot to the setup wizard.
Log in to your Google account but make sure that you untick "Restore from my Google Account to this phone/tablet".
Finish the setup and open the playstore and download only the app you're having problems with.
4. Start a logcat recording and reproduce the bug (if possible more than once) while taking the logcat. If you don't know how to get a logcat read this tutorial or this .
5. Post the logcat in a txt file (this is important because you otherwise clog up the threads with your log) in the correct thread.
Please also write detailed how we can reproduce the bug.
6. Restore your backup from point 1 and wait for a fix (don't ask for ETAs).
nevermind, figured it out. pretty sweet setup. lots to choose from. great work! one thing that would be nice to see implemented is being able to turn off the volume adjust sound.
Well, here's the problem I've been having. When I try to hook up to the computer, it won't recognize my device. I get android.Process.Media has stopped. Adb does not either. Clean installed again, same thing, and cannot access storage from settings, it force closes. I have a catlog of the storage force closing. I hope it helps.

Storage force closes
Slim Bean Roms are the best, but I get the same errors...

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.
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 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.
Features
Android 4.4.4
As of today:
This is all very much a work in progress. All features will have to be verifed
Halo project have been abandonned by Carbon Team because its no more supported by PA Team due to bugs caused by this feature with others including Pie, Omni Switch/hover feature are here to replace it
Bugs:
Carbon fibers settings are little buggy cuz freshly fixed...will find out how to fix soon.

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 goo.im page linked above. It's new, but expanding fast. Just like us!
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) Join our G+ Community: http://community.carbon-rom.com This is where we spend the bulk of our time and the best way to reach us and other community members. We update and frequent this community far more than XDA, simply due to time constraints and the convenience of G+.
5) 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.

hehe yes, sorry I have windy, forgot to specify
Pretty good so far mate. Had some weirdness with the status bar settings not showing, but closing it and re-opening seemed to fix it. I havent actually used Carbon before. But nice, thanks! Keep up the good word
I'll use it a little more and report any issues.
Yeah its stated in 1st post, i have same issue on my device...will see what could be done on next builds to fix that.
btw thanks for testing/using it
gps
Hello I installed the rom very fast but unfortunately the problem of the other CM11 offline gps does not work.
So I went back to the original rom.
Carbon is based on CM11 so indeed the bugs will be the same ...
This ROM is great. Will use pretty heavily today. I don't use GPS much on it.
New build is up
This one is for Castor (not the wifi tab)
Build 1 here

Hi there
Did you even read the original post ??
The dev made it clear that the rom is under development so be patient and wait.
----------------
Guys , developing a rom is not an easy thing to do so please be patient, respect the dev, don't ask for eta (estimated time of arrival ) and support the developer by giving the rom a 5 star rating and a thumbs up to the original post .
Have nice day
Awesome work Ciro , i have been following the screenshots in telegram

Dude, with the greatest of respect - you come here with 25 posts, no pevious ROMs, nobody to verify this actually works and you want us to play guinea pig with our £1,400 phones? Can you post some screenshots or photos of your phone to show this actually works? Or, we're just going to have a really expensive paperweight...
pro199282 said:
without that understand you look i post picture odin how flash it btw
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Okay, but thats not evidence that this actually works.
Do you know what a nand erase does buddy? It erases:
boot
recovery
kernel
system
data
cache
.android_secure
sd-ext
datadata
wimax
efs
If people get this wrong then they're going to have a useless device. You have to show us that this actually works.
pro199282 said:
offtopic my thread i guess
nand erase = only userdata erase
look at download mode that same time you do it it show in blue letter erasing userdata and use my new Twrp and nemeses kernel btw its soo nicceee
Click to expand...

No, you're wrong. Nand erase erases EVERYTHING!! If you dont know this mate, then you shouldnt be making ROMs. I wont be trying this one.

Okay, if you've proven that this works - why isnt your Knox tripped?
Also, please go back to the main page and read the rules. It clearly states you need screenshots of the ROM working on your device.
I know we all have busy lives and don't have time to go through a list of long winded rules, so here's a shortened version to make your life easier
Only the following topics are allowed in DEVELOPMENT area:
[DEV] - Development for any special projects or Apps
[ROM] - Custom ROMs
[KERNEL] - Custom Kernels (usually found in Original Development)
[MOD] - Hack & Modifications for the phone with code only, zips go in themes and apps
[FIX] - Fixes for known issues & bugs
[R&D] - Research & Development for Devs only, when gathering data for a new projects
[HOWTO] / [GUIDE] - How to instructions and Guides (Most of the time should be in General)
Note: If you are unsure where your new topic should go, then please post it to General
Please Include Screen Shots for ROM / MOD / THEME / Apps & Games, when possible as it's expected by our members
DEV Support for ROM / KERNEL / MOD / THEME must be provided within XDA thread posted by the Developer, otherwise it won't count as a Development, and in turn it'll be considered [INFO]rmation / [REF]erence and moved to General
Unmodified Stock ROM and Source Codes does not count as a DEVELOPMENT project unless it's part of an active project you have already started
Password must be provided for all password protected files
Direct download links preferred, due to stipulations stated in forum rule #11
Extra emphasis on rule #12
All ROM / MOD / DEV / etc... found in the DEV section not created by the DEV themselves does not qualify as a development and will be moved to General. It should be properly tagged as [INFO] or [REF], with links to the source website were it was found
Please keep all non Development relevant chatter off the DEV project topics, feel free to create a new topic in General for non Development comments about specific ROM / MOD / THEME / etc... valid replies within a DEV project are: BUG Reports, Problem, Troubleshooting Steps & Logs.
... and Please! keep all your personal bickering via PMs, do not pollute the forum with your personal indifferences.
If you have a problem with a specific member please contact the Moderators for help, that's what we're here for, but we are not babysitters, we are here to gather, organize and provide useful information for our over priced phones

To be honest too, I really appreciate the effort. But it's quite hard for me to understand your posts... and as already said too, I'm not willing to try and untested rom/twrp/kernel on a 1k€ phone...
You really should explain how to flash, what are the impacts (data loss etc...)
