Root [MetroPCS/CDMA] [ROM][OFFICIAL]CarbonRom 4.3

Sweet! Post up on your experiences and how it's running now .







Yea it's no Biggie. Fixing permissions is just a safety precaution aha.

Glad y'all are back at it. Enjoy!! :D

Other than mms still not working I like it. Haven't had a freeze yet. My custom notification LEDs don't work sometimes. More or less some minor things.
 
Anyone experiencing major freezes with this ROM? Just flashed it last night. I had to remove the battery on mine like 6 times today because it kept freezing. Also am experiencing major lag each time I wake my phone. They go away after 2-3 sleep/power and wake presses.

I am on 1.4. I wiped system & catch, flashed ROM, flashed gapps, noticed a freeze last night, wiped dalvic and did a fix permissions. Still freezing.


Going back to BB7 or whatever is better/newer.

Yeah 1.4 is a no go. Stick with 1.3 and flash the kernel. No freezes at all.

Read back a few posts and you'll find your solution. This is a known issue and the solution is flashing a modded kernel over it. This is a very good ROM with everything running great out the box. Just read a couple posts back and you'll figure it out;)
 
Try flashing 1.4 with the kernel you have. You will see there is no more lag or freezes. I have had this kernel installed for about three days now and it's perfect. Battery life is incredible as well.
 
one other thing, i had a zero folder after i flashed a certain rom, but i just moved everything out of that folder and deleted the 0 folder and my phone worked fine, so will that make any difference or any problems with anything?
thanks in advance.

That folder is created automatically when flashing a jelly bean ROM. I'm most certain that in order for your files to be found they need to be in that folder...? Some one correct me??



and also will inverted gapps work with this, inverted 4.2.1?

And yes they will.:)
 
i cant install from internal sd card, i dont hav an external so how do i fix this?

edit: nevermind, everything just got deleted, i know what to do.
 
I worked with this ROM today, and it's pretty great. Everything I hope to see in the AOKP update (I hope there's a difference and ChiweN gets better soon). I just can't get over the mms.apk being so bright (coming from AOKP here) and all the stuff to install just to get it working right. I hope things update smoothly here!
 
ok so this is kind of strange, but in my storage>emulated folder i have two places with my things inside, each one has the exact same thing, the first one is my original internal memory and the other one is a folder named legacy, with all the exact same files in it as my internal storage, i only have like 3gb left on my phone so how can i safely get rid of this 'legacy' folder with my stuff unharmed?
