Announcement
Starting from now, I'm gonna be building ROMs (Unofficially supported) using a build server,
which means I'm gonna be able to provide you updates more frequently and uninterruptedly
But in order to afford for the server's renting cost, I need your help with that,
I'll be providing this announcement in all ROMs' threads that were made using the server,
and I'll be adding a directly donation link to the server here and in my signature,
hoping that you guys would donate so that working on this server will continue
https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=GR5YFRU7FCVT6
Here is the server's website: GothDroid.com
and here is our G+ page: GothDroid - Team for Xperia
And thanks to @necrotic-nosphe for his great work on maintaining the server
and to @Alx31TLse for his great help and for introducing me to the server
ROM's I'm planing on Building through the server for now are: Omni, Carbon, Dirty Unicorns, DarkCyanogenMod

Awesome! Will check it out
Anyway, do you suggest to first make a backup for the Sony partition (right now don't know how it's called) with this methode? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2634196
Also, yes I'm still interested in helping to build daily builds, the only thing is that I have no idea how to start, newer compiled any ROM before and never had anything to do with developing but at some point everything is for the first time, right ;P

I suggest to make a backup if you care about your device's warranty, because without it you'll lose it,
and BTW this : [GUIDE] Back up DRM Keys & unlock/relock Bootloader (Noob proof) is more user friendly and will update your firmware to 4.4 rather than 4.3 in the link you mentioned,
and as mentioned in OP you need to have a Sony 4.4 or CM11 (or based on them) before flashing it.
I'll send you a pm soon to discuss how we can work together

Congrats for your work and thanks for sharing
basically this rom is not qualifying for Original Development since u did not created it...as me xD

Oh, I saw many unofficial (not made by who post) ROMs in many forums in original development!!
so I thought every compiled from source ROM should be here.
And BTW, thanks a lot for your sources, they helped me a lot in building this:fingers-crossed:

yeah me too...at beginning all my threads were in OD and have been moved by a mod. i was thinking all stock/stock based were android dev and cm/cm based OD but not at all, OD is a rom totally created and unmodified by someone and with unique features ...or kernel.
Even : krabappel2548 was official and rom was in android dev and not OD

When??!!
I compiled it just today....
Oh the caf files you say, I didn't know that they may cause a compiling error, but out of coincidence (I think),
I actually toke the repositories from my previous compiled ROM (Resurrection Remix),
so the caf repositories were already in its /.repo/local_manifests/roomservice.xml , which are these two lines:
Code:
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_hardware_qcom_display-caf-new" path="hardware/qcom/display-caf-new" remote="gh" revision="cm-11.0" />
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_hardware_qcom_media-caf-new" path="hardware/qcom/media-caf-new" remote="gh" revision="cm-11.0" />
so I copied them along with the other repositories as well,
and this was fortunately the first ROM that got compiled without any errors in the first time

cool will give a shot tomorrow to see...thanks
Tapatalked with my Yuga

Thanks mate. This is my favourite ROM as I consider it to have the best PIE implementation. Although the Liquid Smooth is quite good on Z1c.
I will try it as soon as possible.

Can I use Doomlord's kernel with this rom?

Is NFC not working(when I scan my card a sound pops out but nothing happens afterwards) a bug under cm11? Because mine isn't working in carbon.
And
Why sometimes when I switch apps I see the Sony logo popping out?

Things not working:
1. CRT Animation
2. NFC
3. settings under "Performance" not sticking after boot
Also could I request that the audio recording by the recording shortcut from the notification area be saved to Internal Storage instead of from root? I have to copy from root to internal storage before I can play them. Not really a bug but a mild inconvenience.

thanks for your reports, NFC is working on CM11.0 (I guess),
all bugs were listed in OP, and will try to fix what I can fix in next build.

its for castor windy bro...will make a castor build when i will b back home...

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

Using castor_windy build. Works great and no issues so far ( haven't used GPS yet ). Seems very fast/smooth. Always liked Carbon on my nexus 5! Thanks for the work to everyone involved.

TBO thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41545802
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this Android 6 (Marshmallow)?
A: Yes, this is Android 6.0.1
Q: What code is Oct-M based on?
A: Starting with Oct-L, we've rebased OctOs on the CyanogenMod 12 code. Oct-M is base on CyanogenMod 13.
Q: What happened to AOSP?
A: All Android code is based on the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). Under previous releases, we tried very hard to limit the number of "Not from Google directly" repositories that we used. Unfortunately, issues with devices, the need for Code Aurora Foundation (CAF) repositories for Qualcomm devices, and compatibility issues meant fighting code more often than not. We decided that since the code-base for many repositories were the same across most ROMs, picking a starting point to build the user experience on outweighed the desire to craft code from scratch, or fix broken code to make it work with other changes we already had.
Q: Why isn't there XXXXXXX feature.
A: Shoot us a Suggestion if you want to see something added. While we are not going to promise to implement, we will always look into it
Q: But XYZ and all the others have..
A: ROM developers, build something they want to use. The ROM developer that includes something they won't run implies less than 100% effort to ensure it does work. As a team, we have similar goals and objectives. If XYZ ROM has a feature you want, and we don't include (or don't want to include), feel free to use XYZ ROM, or build your own custom version of Oct-M.
Q: Superuser or SuperSU?
A: Team OctOs uses SuperSU and is installed automatically.
Bugs:
Bugs happen. Our testers are very good at breaking things, but no where near as good as the rest of the Android public. In order to investigate and fix issues, we need the help of the users who are going to report them. The Android OS has many nifty features to help us in this, but only if we can engage the user to assist us.
Logs, Logcat, and the Android Debugging Bridge (ADB)
Like any other OS, Android has multiple log files that are generated and record the goings-on of the system. As a user, you have two basic ways to view and pull these to send to us. Without the information in the logfiles, there simply is not a whole lot of information to go on.
Log file APKs
Team OctOs recommends SysLog from the Android Market. This application will allow you to selectively pick any (or all) of the system logs, compress them into a .ZIP file, and allow you to save, email, move to your Copy/DropBox/Cloud Storage account, etc.
ADB Logcat
The Android Debugging Bridge (ADB) is a powerful tool available from Google as part of the Android Software Development Kit (SDK). Used for many things, being able to selectively see, in real-time, what your device is doing cannot be downplayed. While there is more setup involved, if you are doing consistent ROM flashing, you really should invest the time to get setup properly to do it.
ADB Logcat tutorial here: How to create a logcat log
Basic Instructions:
Download ROM .zip file and MD5 file, and grab your favourite Opengapps package http://opengapps.org/
Reboot to Recovery (Note: Use Reboot to Recovery from Power Menu, Hardware-based boot to recovery, or adb reboot recovery - ROM Manager or similar software is NOT supported)
--- TWRP is the ONLY recovery Team OctOs uses - We do not support flashing on CWM ---
Factory Reset from TWRP
Flash ROM and GApps .ZIP files
Reboot
The Oct-M ROM installation script will automatically wipe /system, /cache, and /data/dalvik-cache. There is no need to do these before or after flashing the ROM unless you are instructed to by your GApps Provider
The foundation of the Android OS is the fact that is it open-source. We have all code we use internally in the creation of Oct-M available on our GitHub repositories.
Unless otherwise specified, all Oct-M builds use the device's stock CyanogenMod 13 kernel.

Running nicely right now. Had a hard time getting WiFi to connect on first boot but its working now

We put the information on the website because its easier to keep track of across the multiple devices we develop for. We develop the ROM for the simple fact we want to run it, not for you, or anyone else. The ability to be cognizant on what you're doing is a primary requirement for flashing ROMs, and the inability for you to apparently read and comprehend the very simply formatted OP means you are not willing to rise to the level we seek in a user.
It would be better for everyone involved if you don't flash Oct-L. You have many ROMs to choose from, you shouldn't choose ours.
ROM Development is not a service or product industry. You are neither a customer, or a client. Your demands mean exactly nothing and we have better things to do than hold your hand.
Now, if you feel like running what we build, by all means, do so. However, your continued patronage to the thread is directly proportional to your ability to be civil and not condescending.
Enjoy, or not at your leisure, but unless you have something constructive to say, please wander to another ROM.
Toodles!

Running smooth. ^.^

lol bitter much? Don't ruin this for the rest of us who rely on devs like these guys to continue providing up to date software for our aging phones.
I'm definitely trying this ROM out.

From the Moderator
To all in this thread........
Please all remember, the Devs do this for free and out of their love for developing....
....So being rude and poor mannered...... gets you nothing but maybe one less Dev making Roms for your phone
Keep that in mind when you feel like you have some lame commentary or demand to make...
........To the trolls, rather than complaining...... show us your skills and make a ROM for us to critique.......
........oh yeah...... you have no skills other than running yer mouth and making personal demands in a thread.......
~~~ oka1

The strangest thing is him talking about the OP not listing a Buglist. The Rom that he his visiting the most does not either. With that said I'm done. Mod can in and slammed the hammer down on that issue.
Please any one using this rom if you do see anything and and are able to catch a log please report and send log to us.

Installed this Rom and turned on wifi but after login to my account wifi stopped and grayed in off position
Rebooted device and wifi got on but every time failed to login
Again rebooted and it started working correctly
Reached office but again failed to connect to wifi
It is just an information as I read same thing happening with other cm12 build too so this may be with the cm12

What firmware is your phone on I've noticed that the newest modems and firmware is needed for lollipop to work correctly. These builds have been in test for quite some time. Our testers have put this build through the ground with not one hick-up just camera which we have been working on getting fixed.
If you can get a log of the WiFi issue you are having we will look at it. My suggestions is to update to the latest modem firmware for d2tmo.

The Navbar will cover the "Clear All Recents" button if you select the lower right or left position. This already has been corrected for the next release.

Thanks a lot for this amazing rom, i´ll install it as soon as it finish downloading, but one question, it´s the same instaling it in cwm? i mean, does it makes a diference like more bugs or things like that, i hope you understand Thanks a lot!

Our d2tmo user still uses CWM as the team we suggest TWRP only cause CWM is almost a dead recovery and has been know to cause bad flashes..

Also, CWM has had historical issues with actually wiping the partitions effectively. The "Wipe system, data, cache, dalvik x3" was a reality in the past because of CWM. Those issues don't happen with TWRP.

I noticed a couple of things:
1) When flashing the ROM it takes a while. Compared to other lollipop rom's, this one takes about 3-4 minutes to flash, while others flash in like 15 seconds. Is that normal?
2) Installing apps from the play store are taking a long long time. Each app takes about 2 minutes to install, longer if it's a bigger one like youtube. I've noticed it takes long across all lollipop rom's, but one this one it seems to be longer.
3) Kernel Tweaker crashes when I try to view read-ahead and IO scheduler. This doesn't happen with any other ROM so I'm thinking there's something going on with oct os.
Any thoughts?

Some think that is more stable, less hiccups. Just a preference.

pics (of features) added

need more servers...
Taking a solid 30-40 minutes to download and I have 60mb Speed here I'm Silicon Valley...
Will post screenshots and report back in a bit

First (Rough) impression off the bat
Took about 35 minutes to download ROM from http://www.teamoctos.com
Once I got into TWRP the flash took between 10-15 minutes.... I went ahead and flashed the same 5.1.X gapps i use on Res and Bliss......
Once I got to setup is where I ran into my first IN rom issue.. I BELIEVE the initial APN is messed up because I got the screen (in the attachment), so essentially all i could do was set up my "device" with my first and last name.
After i changed APNs It allowed me to sign into google and everything seems good from there..

Been using OctOS for awhile now. Glad to see a thread here for it.
First experience wasn't so great. CPU usage was always high and things lagged terribly. Wasn't sure what was going on.
About week or so later I clean flashed again with a newer gapps. Runs pretty well so far but not so snappy. Nice none-the-less.

Strange, regarding the download time. Yes the boot time started as a long endeavor on 5.1.x. I can say from experience, the newer test builds have improved a ton with twrp flash speed. Coming soon! As for the other items, I'll ask our T-Mobile testers. Thanks for giving us a try!

Yes we are. Testing is very active behind the scenes. Features + stability is being worked on. We do apologize for the wait. I plan to ask some of my team members today if we can release to our website soon. (All of our g3 builds are back a couple weeks atm)

www.teamoctos.com updated with new builds. Changelog here: http://www.teamoctos.com/category/changelog/
Most notably, data handoff between WiFi/3g/lte much improved.

Milestone 3 release, and here is the changelog: https://www.teamoctos.com/category/changelog/
Downloads also on our website under "Devices Supported." Enjoy! Thanks for looking!

I know this has been asked in a few ROM threads but... do you have wifi calling in this ROM..? I'm looking for a new ROM to come to with decent battery life and performance. I'm on Skydragon at the moment.
Also, can we play with voltages/clockspeeds with your kernel?

CAMERA: Manual focus by tapping while zoomed in crashes the app.
All of these issues are present on modpunk's latest LineageOS build. I'm not a programmer, so please be patient while the issues are resolved!

Nice! Been hoping for a Carbon ROM build for the xz1c. Just flashed and looking good so far. Thanks so much!

I installed it. So far everything is working for me. Will you continue to compile new versions, especially if new patches arrive?

I shared my initial version with the intention of releasing new versions.
However, my only practical platforms for compiling my builds on are my laptop, which takes 6 hours to build everything without having compiled anything else and gives me only 20GB of free storage space after building, and Google Cloud Trial which is just a trial, and so it has a limit.
As long as I have access to a build server, new builds will be released for at least a while.

New build! No device-specific bug fixes just upstream changes and a kernel switch

Going on vacation so no builds until around mid-August. Sorry!
While you guys wait, I recommend installing AOSP Phh-Treble with a DRM fix, Magisk, and SELinux permissive patch. The included camera won't work, but Open Camera does and the quality will be as good as stock despite being AOSP.
Also runs noticeably smoother than other AOSP roms like AOSP compiled directly from sonyxperiadev, pretty ironic considering that Treble GSIs aren't tailored to device-specific level.

How did you manage that? I was on Stock rom booted into TWRP. There I did a factory reset and wiped System, Cache, dalvik and data. Then I flashed the System Image from treble project the A partition one vanille Android but it didnt boot. Am I forgetting something?
EDIT: Fixed it. You should not use a Magisk patched ramdisk before flashing or use a patched kernel. A flash after coming from a fresh stock rom worked.

weeklies.....lol....you managed to build 2 !! builds and for about 4 weeks there´s nothing new.....
very interresting that new projects die within 2 weeks *sad*

I'm sorry for not committing to this project, but shouldn't you be grateful that I built CarbonROM for lilac and shared it with you and the rest of the community?
You've needlessly pointed out twice that progress on RR for the S9 has halted. And? Developers are humans, just like you (I assume).
I suggest that if you haven't already, you should experience what it's like to build and maintain a custom ROM, before continuing to complain about inactive developers.
I'm back from vacation now, but I really don't have any reason to continue with this project, doesn't help that I would have to share my builds with people like you if I did. Google Cloud credit is running low anyways, and I don't have access to any other solutions.

Anyway, thanks for your work. Some guys here may cant read your post before about your vacation.
May be you will change your opinion about not publishing any future versions.
I think that Carbon was running quite well.

Dang that sucks. I really wanted to see more from CarbonRom.

As I expected...you ask for donations in your first post and now......no more updates
you developers always ask for donation and this is one good example why many people dont donate.

Sorry, I've never shared my builds on XDA before, and I was just trying to follow other CarbonROM members' post formats. Please note that I am not a member of the CarbonROM team, these are unofficial builds.
Good news! I now have a dedicated build machine, completely separate from my main computer.
I may post more builds soon, but flashlight, RIL, and camera are currently broken in modpunk's LineageOS I built for myself (my CarbonROM uses his device and kernel trees).
Hopefully I'll be able to revert the changes and bring a build to you guys sooner.

@SirSoviet Pls I'm not being rude or bossy I just wanna ask are we going to get new builds of this rom?
