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, build, and use our code at CarbonROM's GitHub... and at CarbonROM Gerrit.
Disclaimer:
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!
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 website. Carbon FAQ
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 Discord server! There, you can connect with other Carbon users and our developers, and you can get quicker responses to your bug reports. The invite link is right below.
We recommend MindTheGApps. OpenGApps should work, but please make sure you clearly mention the gapps you're using when reporting bugs.

Wow thats good. Thank you very much.
Hi, Myself5! Thanks a lot that you still support our device though you have newer devices.
User experiences and issue list for 2019-03-11 Release
First of all, thanks to @Myself5, @rcstar6696 and all other members of the CarbonROM team for the release of CarbonROM 6.1 Oreo for our device! :good::victory:
User experiences with CarbonROM 6.1:
Installation was smooth. I flashed cr-6.1 and OpenGapps ARM 8.1 on top of my working cr-5.1 installation (dirty flash), so all of my apps and their settings were kept. MindTheGapps 8.1.0 arm, which are recommended by the Carbon devs, are also working fine. Keep in mind that there is no guarantee that a dirty flash works in all cases, so you might have to wipe your data partition. This generally is recommended when updating to a new Android version anyway.
Besides of some small issues (see below), everything runs stable and the system is snappy and smooth. Thermal management and charging speed is fine.
Magisk 16.0 works fine, as well as Xposed Framework (SDK 27) v90-beta3 or alternatively Systemless Xposed (SDK 27) v90.1-beta3 Magisk module. However, there are some force-closes of background apps every now and then, caused by the beta status of Xposed v90.
My Xperia Torch Boost Magisk module is still working well on cr-6.1.
Selinux is set to enforcing, just as it was in cr-5.1.
I found out that Android Messages SMS/MMS app has a high battery drain, which e.g. is also reported for Pixel devices on Android 8 Oreo, so a general bug by Google. Because of this, I switched to Textra SMS (of course you can also use one of the other SMS/MMS apps around), which fixes the battery drain.
Improvements in comparison to cr-5.1:
The camera button now acts exactly like in Sony Stock ROMs, so now focussing and taking pictures is possible with Stock Sony Camera. You can also invoke the Stock Sony Camera by long-pressing the camera button, just like in Stock ROMs, but this doesn't work when the device is off or locked. In this case you can use a double press on the power button, which can be enabled in Carbon Fibers settings.
Booting the device is noticably faster than on cr-5.1.
Lower battery drain than on cr-5.1.
Better, more uniform design.
The ROM is being updated to the latest Android Security Patches.
Apps can be "locked" in the Recent Apps, so when pressing the Clean All button, they keep running.
4K video recordings are possible.
Missing features in comparison to cr-5.1:
There is no option to turn on Network Traffic Indicators yet. (This has been added in 2018-04-05 Weekly.)
Default Camera-App does not allow to save photos to sd-card, puts photos in wrong orientation and is all around very limited. However, there are good alternatives like Open Camera and the Stock Sony Camera. (Since 2018-05-01 Weekly, Snap Camera is used again.)
Issues in Carbon ROM 6.1:
Video recording doesn't work yet with the built-in Camera app, as well as with several other apps like Open Camera and the Stock Sony Camera. Until this is fixed, you can use Footej Camera for video recording as a workaround. (This has been fixed in 2018-05-08 Weekly by @AdrianDC and Milos Ratkovic.)
DoubleTap2Wake isn't working yet. (This has been fixed in 2018-04-11 Weekly.)
The SystemUI (Quick Settings etc.) always is shown in white theme. I know that this is Oreo's default design, but it should change to dark theme when using a dark wallpaper. (See @Myself5's reply in post #14.)
The gyroscope doesn't work properly yet with certain apps, e.g. Vr Tester - Gyroscope Sensor App and Accelerometer Gyro Tester. (Obviously this is a bug of those apps or of Oreo in general, since @Myself5 could reproduce it on his Pixel 2 XL device, running on stock ROM. Many other apps that use the gyroscope are working fine on cr-6.1.)
Saving and accessing files on SD card doesn't work for certain apps and tools, which could be a Linux permission or SELinux denial issue. For further information and partial workarounds, see post #45, post #49 and post #51. (This has been fixed in 2018-06-05 Weekly.)
Screen Cast still isn't working for me with 2018-04-11 Weekly (I tested this with a Sony and an LG Smart TV which both connected fine to my Z3c on stock ROMs), even with the new boot image from post #103 which is working with @Myself5's Fire TV stick and Wireless Display Adapter. This has been fixed in 2018-04-17 Weekly.
WiFi isn't working on 5 GHz band in some countries, as has been reported in post #1634 on the Z2 cr-6.1 thread, including links to posts with possible workarounds and fixes. There's also an article in the xda wiki with further information. Since 2018-05-01 Weekly, Germany (DE) is used as Wifi country code, but there have been several reports by users from other countries that this doesn't work for them, so is not an universal fix. As a workaround, until this is fixed, you can use my Magisk module from post #195, which you have to change to your own country code by following the instructions that I gave there. Edit: @marcogiannetta posted an improved Magisk module in post #373 which changes the Wifi Country Code accordingly to the system language. A similar issue (wifi dosent connect in Iran) also has been reported on the bug tracker and is being looked after by the devs. Edit: According to post #2092 on the Z2 thread, this issue can also be fixed by installing WiFi regional problem solver Xposed module.
Music files can't be played from SD card with Vanilla Music, Sony Music and several other players. This issue was fixed in 2018-05-08 Nightly, but reappeared on 2018-05-15 Nightly. Until this is fixed again, you can use jetAudio HD Music Player as a workaround. (This has quickly been fixed again in the 20180515-2340 Weekly build.)
When making a screenshot via the Power menu, most of the time the Power menu itself is visible in the screenshot. There should be a slight delay (just 1/10th second might already be sufficient), so the Power menu is already hidden again before the screenshot is taken. This has been fixed in 2018-07-05 Weekly.
Apps like Netflix, MyCanal and MagineTV don't work because DRM WideVine is not supported yet, whereas in CarbonROM 5.1 it was supported. This has been fixed in 2018-08-15 Release.
Lock screen rotation has been removed since 2018-09-11 Release. It was a useful feature when using the phone in landscape orientation e.g. in a car holder and IMO should be added again. Edit1: As a workaround, I made LockscreenRotationEnabler Magisk module which adds this functionality by adding a setting to 'build.prop'. Edit2: Lock screen rotation can also be enabled with GravityBox [O] Xposed module.
NFC extended length isn't supported, which is needed e.g. for reading identity cards with apps like AusweisApp2. (This has been fixed in 2019-03-11 Release.)
NFC-HCE isn't supported, which is needed for Google Pay. (This has been fixed in 2019-03-11 Release.)
Wish list for some further improvement of Carbon ROM 6.1:
Long press camera button to wake and launch camera app when the screen is off or the phone is locked. Edit: I found a workaround which I described in this post.
A toggle to switch to dark UI theme for quick settings. Edit1: The dark UI theme can be forced with ForceDarkModeOreo Xposed module. Edit2: ForceDarkModeOreo unfortunately is one of the Xposed module which cause random app crashes, so it's not advisable to use it. Let's hope that the devs will add this feature eventually.
About time this one got its own thread, huh
Everything works great, no bugs so far and no problem with camera recording (using Footej Camera), though missing hardware key rebindings and i cant enable power notifications
Downloading right now. Lets see how it compares to Omni 8.1
EDIT (my comment from a few pages later):
After a few days with it, I can say it's already suitable for daily use. Using MindTheGapps (tho I will switch to OpenGapps pico, I don't want Google app ), Magisk 16.
It's smooth and very stable. No crashes or major issues for me so far.
Battery life is acceptable, worse than stock (doh), and perhaps even LOS 14.1. Thermal management and charging speed is fine.
No idea about the camera, mine is broken (HW) and I never use front one.
A few suggestions and comments:
Add some power balancing options like with LOS (better performance or battery life).
Also, I love how you can customize RGB values on LOS to make it more yellowish even during day, plus night light. Any idea what workaround I could use? My blueish screen is killing me and I can't use night light all day.
Good to hear night mode is being worked on.
How to make quick tiles menu like on 7.x? I preferred auto expanding options for mobile data and silent mode. Can't find it in fibers.
Hi, Great that development is ongoing - Thanks a lot!
One thing, got the same problem with the none carbon Oreo Version:
got problems with whatsapp. Video isn't running. The phone doesn't build up a connection. Chat works, but whatssap call or video not.
Skype ist working without problems ...
Any Ideas?
I installed it with a full wipe - system, cache, dalvik, data, internal storage. Used TWRP 3.2 for ROM (to mind error 7) and TWRP 3.1 for installation of MindTheGApps.
Thanks for help!
Thanks for the ROM, working great for me.
I have accidently deleted live wallpaper picker. Tried download a few different versions from the internet but nothing works. Where can I get the one this ROM is using?
FYI: I now posted my first impression and experiences in post #4. I'm planning to update it when new Weeklies arrive or when other users report some issues that are worth listing.
@Myself5: Please have an eye on the missing features and issues that I postet there, so they will hopefully get fixed in the next Weeklies.
Happy Easter to all of you!

It'd definitely be nice to have the dark theme overall. I'm not sure if I'm the only one, but I really dislike the white Oreo style. Is it possible to have it look more like Nougat, also in the 'settings' app? I, for one, always loved the color scheme that Goolge made from Lollipop to Nougat.

For things like Networks indicator: Some additional features will surely come with time, as you said.
Video recording: I think it was the Z3 thread where I explained it in detail: The commits to fix Video recording do work (kind of), but are WIP, so we're all working on getting them stable and polished, then they will be merged as fast as possible. When that happens is rough to estimate, I wouldnt expect it to take much longer than 2-3 Weeks though.
DT2W: As you said. Fixed and merged, will be included in the Next Weekly.
For the Dark Theme: Isn't that a Pixel only feature? For that to work you'd need assets for a "dark theme". On Pixel devices those are on the /vendor partition, so obviously not present on our Z3C. Correct me if I'm wrong please.
Thanks for the detailed report, will gladly keep on checking it with followup builds.
Metall Boy said:

It does. Install the Substratum app and flip the switch in CarbonFibers -> Privacy to make it work.
The Switch is disabling the Security measures Google merged in the March ASBs. By default Subs completely removes them, but we decided to go for an opt-in for those that want to use it while keeping the "security" Google intended to have with merging it for those that don't want to.
First off all, thank u for this amazing work! Rom is awesome.
1 - I saw that DT2W is fixed in the next build. It's possible add a feature present in gravitybox? When smartphone is in the pocket, sometimes screen turns on because DT2W. Gravitybox has an option to disable this when proximity sensor is covered.
2 - Someone can tell me if led notification works? Not work here...
Sorry bad English...
Sorry for asking again - anyone using this rom with working whatsapp video oder whatsapp call? When I try it the connection always hang up - no connection. Chat works.
Any idea anyone?
Thanks!

Yes, this is a great additional feature when using DT2W and one of the reasons that I use GravityBox. @Myself5: It would be great if you could implement this feature for those of us who don't use Xposed. In GravityBox it can be found under "Power tweaks -> Proximity wake up" and the additional option "Ignore for incoming call" which is also worth implementing.
2 - Someone can tell me if led notification works? Not work here...

I can confirm that LED notifications are working here, just tested this with missed call (using Google Dialer) and incoming email (using AquaMail).

I don't use WhatsApp, but I guess that the not working video call has to do with the not fully working video recording (see #1 in the issues list I posted here).
Hello All,
I just updated from CR5.1 to 6.1 this day, and tried to install Magisk.
But Magisk Manager failed to update, and if I flashd through TWRP (the good one, 3.1) I'm stucked in Sony logo.
Log said :
"Parsing boot image : [/data/user_de/0/com.topjohnwu.magisk/install/boot.img]
No boot image magic found!
! Unable to unpack boot image
Failed!
! Installation failed"
I have to "install" Magisk uninstaller in TWRP to bring life to my phone
EDIT : magisk 16.0, manager 5.6.4.
Some idea pls ?

Did you try removing all other modules? For me the very same thing is happening if I try to use the fbind (Folder Bind) module. You can try to remove all modules, if u use the Magisk Manager for Recovery Mode (mm).
I tried and :
"No magisk installation found."
So I installed Magisk v16, then installed this one.
I could install mm, this was the only module installed.
I uninstalled mm, rebooted without uninstalling Magisk V16, and the phone booted !
But I can't open Magisk Manager v5.6.4, stucked in the app logo...So Magisk seems to be installed, but I can't use it :/
EDIT : Well, after a recovery reboot, reinstall f magisk V16, phone boot correctly and Magisk is alive.
I don't know how this is working, but it's working.
No doubt, you helped me, many thanks
I'm not going to rant a lot here, but it's getting very annoying to the point I think I need to go here in the forum for a solution.
I'm using a 32/3GB Global version, on MIUI 10.3.3 Global with Android 9.
My phone's RAM management is utter dud it feels like a 500MB RAM phone. When I open an app, say a game, and then go home and open another app, goodbye game. Or Chrome and Music. Music plays in the background for some time but then just stops. Feels like it's thinking of Music as an unnecessary app and decided to close it. These issues did not happen with my last update before this.
My RAM usage usually hovers at 1.7/3GB.
TL;DR, Xiaomi probably trying to implement a RAM management system that is far too effective it's not efficient. Basically bye-bye multitasking. Is there anything I could do to change this?
Wonder why no one replied? Am I the only one with this problem?

I think the management of RAM on the stock is very bad, in fact Xiaomi had to adapt it for the S2 as it has a 32 bit rom on a 64 bit Soc. I advise you to unlock the bootloader, install the Twrp and flashi the Lineage 16, and that's better.
Yeah, this is an known bug. I suggest you unlock bootloader and install the latest MIUI by Xiaomi.eu (currently, we are in 10.3.4), cause this problem was solved in there.

Xiaomi eu ROM works fine in 3/32 ? Because i read some people with bugs in this version, no in 4/64.
The 10.3.4 was removed after hours from download site of ota Xiaomi (because lot of bug) and actually say that is beta when i try to install it manually.
So the only way is go to eu ROM. Really, lot of bug global stock version to version.
Well, today i updated to 10.3.5 global (official web site) and look solved.
Attached screenshot of a lot of apps opens and no closed, and battery intelligent of Google is enabled.
Before update, whiteout any app in task list 1.5 free, now 1.6 or 1.7 sometimes.
Additional changelog:
Camera, faster shot and video 1080 60fps
Mode digital bienestar mode.
Dark mode.
Boot faster and unlock first time faster.

I've been having the same problem. After I updated to Global Stable MIUI 10.3.3.0 (PEFMIXM) I started having these issues where background apps just won't stay running. Tabs on Chrome keep reloading if I switch between them.

Thanks @nix.sasl. I too can confirm that updating from 10.3.3.0 (PEFMIXM) to 10.3.5.0 (PEFMIXM) has fixed this issue. Finally this website was useful for once.

A tip more, if you have the launcher setting in 4x5 do notting but if you have in 5x5, back to 4x5 and look that the device allow more apps in background.

bug
notch fix file has a bug...it showing a big notch while playing landscape video or game......any solution?
Are we expecting a Android Q release on MIUI 11? Or Android 9 is the final tulip Android ver?
unfortunately the rom is buggy, especially from a lag in various parts of the system, I couldn't stand it.
What exactly does Notch Fix mean? For me, the application delete option appears under the noch.
I installed Orangefox Recovery instead of the old one and reinstalled the Notch fix but still not working properly.
Other thing:
There is a 1.6GB system update via OTA. Which phone is this for? For Redmi Note5 or Note6 Pro?
Thank You!

Please keep in mind that this rom is only in beta stage and is not designed for redmi note 6 pro. Support for our device on MIUI 11 will be coming in the next couple months hopefully. Until then we might see some AOSP Android Q roms soon.
According to some sources the Redmi Note 6 Pro will likely receive a MIUI 11 open beta towards the end of this month (October)

As was said by the publisher of this thread. This MIUI rom is a beta for the Redmi Note 5 Pro (RN5P). Therefore the OTA would be for the RN5P. Our device will receive a Beta towards the end of this month if the sources are correct.

Its too early to say. However we could get Android 10 at the beginning of next year maybe. More information will be revealed over the coming months.

I believe a treble ROM is a GSI aka generic system image for all devices and not just Xiaomi devices. I don't think this is a treble ROM, it's a ported ROM from the rn5pro.
i think miui pro 11 9.9.26 is better smooth and fast than this rom
Mi A2 Lite ANDROID 10 UPDATE REVIEW BY ALESSIO1989 :
1. SD crap performance still not fixed (and it's not related to the SD itself, only on this phone)
2. BT is still laggy, no additional codecs working, SBC only with 500ms lags (sometimes even more)
3. Poor 4G signal - 4G+ not working (at least in Europe), while the SoC is perfectly capable to do intra brand carrier aggregation.
4. Performance degradation after a couple of days, needs restarts
4. Customize your pixel is still appearing
5. Cannot hide suggestions in settings
6. Direct share is still broken
7. Xiaomi never cared to enable Camera2Api (a workadound is possible thought)
8. Xiaomi never cared about AR Core.
9. 2/3 of these issues come since Day one from Android 9.
Completely Written by ALESSIO1989.
JUST CORRECTED SOME MISTAKES & GAVE SPACES BTW LINES.
conclusion, stay on stock oreo, or flash custom rom.
Can confirm 3, 4, 4 and 6, on June update. The others haven't noticed/tested.
tried various custom roms but all with bugs.
In my opinion the best I have tried for battery life and speed is the bliss vanilla 12.8 even if it had
camera and gps problems ... What do you recommend? ?Do you think there is a custom rom without defects??

Thanks very kind, you can send me the link, so you can understand the right one. ? So I try it.
Bluetooth volume is only 50% after each connect.
What's the workaround to enable camera2api?

Is there a way to back to the first Android version on Mi A2 Lite? It was the only version that works fine.
After the first update a lots of problems comes. The first one: Call Recorders stop work!
I'm with the last Android 10 update, and my cell phone is a tash now. I cant use it. Lot of bugs!
I need to change the android Version, install a MIUI stock, or buy a new phone(I cant do it now!!). I think this is my first and my last Xiaomi Phone.
lets keep all the reviews / complaints of this rom in one location so everyone can enjoy the conversation.

Hello,
Not sure if it's the right place, but I'm getting depressed with my Xiaomi 12 behaviour. Since last update, MIUI global 13.2.4, the phone keeps killing apps, even if I set those with :
- not battery restriction
- auto startup
I tried a factory reset, I unlocked it, rooted it. It keeps killing apps. It's annoying, because I use Vivid and removed the navigation buttons. I let you imagine how I can be stuck sometimes when Vivid is killed. Yet, Vivid is locked... So MIUI regurlaty kills it, and sometimes, it even loses the accessibility autorisation.
How can I know what's killing it ? Obviousily, I'm not in Eco mode, and this behaviour also occurs in performance mode. Everything worked very fine until last update.

Maybe a bug in the rom which is a stable beta.
The ROM is official, it's been deployed in France last week.

OTA update for an entire country are with beta ? If so, this is a joke. How can I report this to Xiaomi ?

You are not the only one to have had problems following updates, the solution if it worked before, is to flash the previous rom or to use a Xiaomi EU rom.
Sometimes Xiaomi renames a Stable Beta to stable without fixing anything.

Previous ROM is in Android 12. Downgrading won't be a problem ? Keeps root ? EU Roms seem far behind.
Sirguda said:

Downgrading requires a clean flash and the root is lost along with your data.
Use this tool:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/flash-tool-guide-use-xiaomi-flash-tool.4262425/
And disable the update.
EDIT:
I use a Xiaomi EU rom on my 12 pro and I have several apps that must remain in the background, works very well.
With a Xiaomi EU rom you will have the certified play store without root and lots of extra options.
This is happening to me also and many other people. Fun times waking up to find that your alarm clock hasn't gone off because it was killed in the background.
There doesn't seem to be a workaround yet. There's several posts on the mi.com forums regarding it:
Xiaomi Community
new.c.mi.com
People there have discussed making a bug report via the feedback app (Settings->"Services & Feedback") might garner some support for Xiaomi to fix the issue... one can only hope.
All I can say is if you're thing of updating to V13.2.4.0.TLCEUXM OTA then DONT! Teach me to apply an update without checking on it first.

Go to this site if you need anything, the updates with beta roms on the stable channel do not date from today, many threads on this subject have been created without change since today the problem persists.
Reporting bugs via Services & Feedback hasn't changed anything either.
Note that since the redesign of their site, important threads have disappeared and even some devices.
As a reminder, it is the moderators of this site who report information, well that's just theory because in practice, nothing happens.
If you want answers from Xiaomi, tell them you want to buy a new phone because that's what they're interested in, selling.
I tell you this because at a certain time, I was active on this site, but some of my posts were deleted because I explained how to solve or work around the problem.
Sometimes by checking the hash of a beta rom and the following stable, it was the same.
The solution is to unlock the bootloader and downgrade or install a Xiaomi EU rom.

I'm kind of relieved that's I'm not the only one with this issue. For sure I dont take a xiaomi anymore. I had doubt about MIUI, and gesture unavailable with 3rd party launcher + this killing app bug, makes me regret not have taken a Samsung S22.
" I had doubt about MIUI, and gesture una aimable with 3rd party launcher"
Xiaomi blocks this function with third-party apps (not new).

Not new, but it's a detail you have trouble knowing before buying. With Vivid Gesture, I was plainly satisfied, but this new bug is really frustrating.
Regarding "Xiaomi EU rom", how well tested is it? Do they have an issue tracker and a list of known bugs?
I've rooted and flashed community ROMs in the past only to find out they are poorly tested / have horrible QA and although superficially they work fine other aspects didn't like Bluetooth, Android Auto or certain camera modes etc.
It has been a while though since I last attempted one, maybe things have moved on since then?
Xiaomi has removed so much of the Google framework that even push notifications isn't working. Take note that the Global ROM is based on the CN variant which is known for aggressive background killing of apps.
In Xiaomi's defense, they are "freeing up" up to 800mb of your internal storage by removing most of Google's API but in the expense of all the issues encountered by Global ROM users.
So if anyone is interested, I'm trying to see if disabling com.miui.powerkeeper works round this issue of background apps being killed in V13.2.4.0.TLCEUXM .
I followed this tutorial:
How to disable any pre-installed system app bloatware on Android without root
If you hate the bloatware or pre-installed apps on your Android smartphone, here's how to disable them even if Android doesn't normally let you.
www.xda-developers.com
Will report back if I notice any improvement.
Maybe someone more knowledgable might be able to tell me if there are any downside to disabling this package?
I am suffering the exact same problem with my device since the 13.2.4 update, what i nightmare to use the device since then ! As the other users already reported, it s even killing the alarm app which prevents it to ring ! But it also impacts all app notifications, like whatsapp, outlook, etc. After being killed I don't get the new notifications for those.
I can't believe that they are pushing such an update globally, they are gonna lose a lot of customers which such a poor strategy, as this is not just a "little" bug.
I am interested in the Xiaomi.EU rom, looks like they released one 2 days ago with version number 13.2.6, but I have to investigate if we can install that over our official version on an original EU device, and if it requires a full data wipe or not.

Welcome to XIAOMI.
You can check below the version of the rom proposed for the update, before performing it.
https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/archive/miui/cupid/
EDIT:
You can either update the rom with the update.bat file included in the Fastboot.zip folder but since it is an A13 version, it is preferable to format the data with the first install.bat file .
Obviously the bootloader must be unlocked.
Also remove the security from the lock screen and restart the system.
Hello. I have exactly the same problem. I just bought the phone, after a week I got that update and it made me completely regret that I bought it. Is there any "clean" way to return to the version of MIUI I bought the phone with?
Would a reset return me to the old version? Since i got almost nothing important in the phone, it wouldnt be a big deal.
