Stop lying!!! we already had the option to move the clock to the center!!!
….now is much more accurate…. LOL
better lowincall volume fix –> what times repeat?
You stupid butt crack DICKHEADS! !!
This is a FREE ROM!! You are so unthankfull and crying like babies!!
If you dont like this rom stop downloading it instead of complaining!!!
Thanx to Novafusion team for a brillant ROM V
in the cm11.0 this option not foand??????????????????
in cm11 you need to do it with xposed and install gravitybox module
Thanks! Alarm bug fixed, video recorder bug fixed. Everything’s A ok now. 😀
camera freezes at startup
+1
this is a big bug.It was not expected after all
google camera installed and it works
yes but with google camera your photos are beeing instale to the phone and not to sd card…
inastalled*
Where is the stock AOSP release? Do you remember? Thanks “Maclaw” 😀
+1
why carbon is not completely translated in Portuguese? much of the menu is in English, even choosing the Portuguese language: ( cyanogenmod is completely in portuguese
I guess you have to complainto the Carbon developers?
I was not complaining. I was just wondering if anyone knows why. I like a lot of carbon, but I always end up staying in cyanogenmod to be completely in Portuguese. sorry for the English, the translator google sucks .. greetings from Portugal
im from portugal too but since i understand very well the english language i just stay with english and i can also use “ok google” feature with that 🙂
Boas João. O que quis dizer é que por exemplo ao instalar a ROM de novo, ao configurar o telefone, escolho o idioma português, mas por exemplo depois nas definições, muita coisa está em inglês. Na cyanogenmod isso não acontece. Estas a usar carbon? Que tal se porta no teu telefone? Cumprimentos
Ah e podes usar o ok google mesmo que o telefone esteja com o idioma em português. Basta ires as definições do Google now e mudar o idioma do Google now para inglês. Pelo menos eu tenho assim e funciona. O telefone esta todo em português, apenas o Google now esta em inglês. Mas estou a usar cyanogenmod. Cumps
por acaso mt bem raramente encrava e noto uma performance mais elevada nas aplicaçoes e jogos ate no antutu benchmarks eu consigo ter um score de 9600 o q e mt bom comparado com outros testes de outras versoes
ja agora tenho q perguntar. se usas o twitch no telemovel consegues ver qualquer livestream eu so consigo ver o chat e tenho blackscreen e sem audio na live ainda n encontrei nenhuma soluçao para isso
Cumprimentos
Olha eu já algumas vezes instalei a carbon.. Mas acabo por deixar mesmo por causa de muita coisa nas definições estar em inglês. Mas não desgostei, pareceu – me fluida. Já experimentei imensas roms mas acabo sempre por voltar para a cyanogenmod.. Se bem que o consumo de bateria está uma bosta ultimamente.. Enfim
Não não uso. E como disse estou a usar cyanogenmod. Não te consigo ajudar, desculpa. Cumps
ene due baha california, haha
I did not mean to be rude to you, apologies if it appeared so 🙂 I just think nova team cannot help that not everything is translated, you should write to the carbon team instead
I have batery drain in this and CM rom :/
Camera FC !
am i able to watch twitch on this version or is there any fix?
Someone told me tu use vortex, its an unofficial app that allows you to watch twitch streams, i havent tested it cause i returnes to stock. You can give it a try, if it works tell me so i go back to carbon
nahh vortex doesnt work and hitbox(another streming app but is olny for competitive play) also doesnt work i guess its the rom problem that cant play live streams or live videos
Is it better to fix the Launcher problem ? please answer.
I don’t understand your question.
Hi 🙂 It will work on Samsung galaxy s3 mini (GT-I8190N) with NFC. And will NFC work correctly?
Rom would work but NFC won’t!
if I use the f2fs filesystem, I can’t use ART… is it an expected behavior?
With previous version and before, I have no issues with art and f2fs.
weird… and what did you changed to art? just sd card and cache or something else? probably I’m missing something 🙁
My runtime is art and my /system, /cache and /data are f2fs formatted.
For me, this version gives untraceable much CPU usage and battery drain, no matter if I reboot without WiFi or clear dalvik and cache and wait 15 min.. Performance – min CPU seems to jump back to 1 GHz too.
Back to good working 0707
Where can we find 0707 compilation?

excelent, thank you.
Hi, i have this issue: i do factory reset and cache/dalvik wipe and then flash the rom with the gapps. But when it boots it gets stuck in a loop that sais “Unfortunately cyanogenmod account has stopped”. I had
cm 11 until now with no issues. am i missing some steps? Thanks!
Same problem for me in the following ROMs: Carbon, SlimKat, CM
Hi, i actually solved this yesterday by updating the twrp, I had an older version of it. So, i installed the twrp 2.7, did the wipes and flash the rom without problems. hope this helps .
This is getting worse and worse. No ringtone sound works out, can’t access SD card, ui lags…. Ahh pointless!
seems you’re the only one experiencing that. clean install?
Came from stock. Been on stock for some time now. Guess I will have to go back or change to some other ROM.
I got same problem now!
Ringtones and alarm sounds are only working from internal flash, but not from SD Card.
Car charger still doesn’t work.
Other than that, no problems found. Battery seems to last a little longer, but I didn’t have enough time to be sure yet.
Mine works fine. Got some chinese type charger.
It can be something with the charger. Try it in other car/with another phone.
Camera is not working 🙁
from coal 20140707 install my first mini i8190l s3 is hot when in use 10 minutes, also happens to someone?
can someone please pass me the best modem for i8190l in Argentina. I works very bad 3g signal since upgrading to i8190lubana2. please you can send me a link. thank you
I can’t record a thing !!!
I can’t offline chaeger ini carbon 4.4.4 please help me…
SystemUI is stable?
I have an issue. Sometime my phone gets stuck on “charging” even when I unplug the charger..and then when I plug it back, it doesn’t charge… :c Have to do some reboots to get it back to normal for a while..
Looks like some OTG bug… Well, only rebooting is the solution for the time being. Dunno if they still work on it though…
hello, how long the boot rom, takes 30 minutes and stays in letter C? was installed by TWRP-2.4.2.0, someone could help me?
I really liked maclaw’s 4.4 and especially Carbon, but there are too many features you just can’t use anymore and additional problems.
With so many new problems and unsolved old problems I’m thinking about going back to vanilla fimware. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2159660)
Old problems (since the beginnings of Carbon 4.4.2 for S3 mini for the most):
-Camera unstable
-Camera autofocus won’t work in video mode
-Insane battery drain unless you play around a lot with governor settings (aka ‘1GHz-Bug’)
-WiFi-Direct not working at all
-WiFi-Hotspot unstable and often crashing
-USB2Go feature draining battery after loading battery (Without even needing USB2Go)
-Very slow ART-Cache bulding
-Very slow battery loading
-incompatible apps (Twitch and others, some won’t work at all, some with graphical bugs)
It seems that since maclaw started developing for other devices, he wouldn’t care anymore for the low level stuff on the mini.
Well, but thank you after all anyway, for the good times 🙂
Yep, I also have this cam issue now – its simply not working. Have installed the previous carbon rom version and the cam is still not working.. any ideas? looks like sth is f***** up now^^
