How is data on this rom? Im in a lousy signal area and need data to work 100% or Im kinda screwed. A lot of the 4.2 .2. worked but data was week. Thanks

Guys, I'm just saying.  I've installed every rom out there.  I swear you will not be disappointed at all with this ROM.  Maybe I have just been fortunate but it is solid in every way possible.  Battery life is Great, no signal/Bluetooth/WiFi issues.  It is snappy and has almost every feature I can think of.  The only thing I am missing is the clock on the standard 4.1.2....  That isn't even a complaint because it isn't on any roms that I can find..  I'm not sure if I've just been lucky or if others that have had problems have been unlucky.  To answer the previous question though.  A solid 10/10...

^^^^  what he said.  Even the volume on this one for some reason on mine, is off the charts.

Hi there - liking this rom so far.  First 4.3 rom that i have considered keeping (rather than going back to 4.2.2)...  i am noticing a slow tug of battery drain and the phone running warmer than normal.  Anyone experiencing that and have a solution?  "android system" appears to be the culprit under the battery consumption menu...  Thoughts welcome...

I do...  just i have had on other roms.

I see. Last I tried a 4.3 ROM it got really hot a lot. It was beanstalk 4.3.

I'm not sure if it had anything to do with Google now, but that's one of the things I know was running most of the time - including Facebook, maps, seeder.

Of course, it could be non-app related, too. Something with signal searching or GPS or WiFi could be the cause.

I didn't bother to find out, I'm actually on 4.2.2 carbon right now. Battery's phenomenal too.

Could be the 3g connectivity issue too. I see that dhacker has a fix and will put it in the cm nightly tonight.

I have two minor/irritating issues on the 9/10 update, both of which may be easily resolved, though I'm not sure how to go about it after looking through the settings.

1) When using the power button to lock the phone, the click is barely audible; I have to hold the phone very close to my head to hear it.

2) Several apps (Falcon Pro, G+, and probably a few more) like to freeze and crash or just freeze for a minute and come back to life.

Maybe I'm just too new to the custom ROM world, I am, and don't know how to do some of the wiping that's referred to (more specifically what wipe needs to be done) or if there is a legitimate issue in the ROM.

Thanks in advance.

Ditto on problem number two. But on problem number one I don't feel because I turn those sounds off.

which gapps do I install the 4.3 by droidth3ory?  or the full?

 

Edit:  Ok so I installed Carbon, got it booted.  setup wifi went through the setup.  Everything going smooth.  The phone froze..  So I waited a minute or two and nothing.  So I held the power button.  Rebooted.  Waited for the Carbon logo and nothing..  Stays at the Warning Bootloader Unlocked screen.  Went to recovery, performed a factory reset, reinstalled carbon, then installed the PA gapps - Full.  Stuck at Warning Bootloader Unlocked.  Rebooted to Recovery wiped, factory reset..  Restored my Xenon Rom previously backed up..  Again stuck and Warning Bootloader Unlocked screen..  Anyone have any suggestions?

 

While typing this it finally booted..  Maybe I was impatient..  Maybe I type slow...  Oh well...  back working..  will try again when I don't need my phone so bad..  Looked good on the 10 mins I was using it..

 

So I basically am having the same exact problem, froze right after setup so I rebooted and now I get stuck at the Warning Bootloader Unlocked screen.  I can boot into recovery fine, so I restored my Nexesque backup and I'm still having the same issue.  I'm trying to be patient, but it's been a good 15 minutes now...  Any suggestions?

 

Edit: After turning off the phone, then plugging it in to the wall (put it into charge mode) it now boots to my restored nexesque.  So now it's time for my second attempt

I last tried carbon when it was pretty young - is the charging LED still always on? I rely on the notification light at night when I'm charging, so this was a deal breaker for me. (I know, it's silly but that was pretty much it.)
