Downloads
All features of the app are available for free, without any ads. If this app has been helpful, there's an option to donate via an in-app purchase. This does NOT unlock any new features. Thank you for your support.
Please do not mirror without permission. Link to this thread or play store page if you want to share this app elsewhere. So that users will know where to check for updates and get support from.
_
Important Information
A nandroid/Ti backup is recommended before trying the app.
Some devices/ROMs face a soft reboot when density is changed. There's a test in the app to check this. If density change indeed causes reboot, density is ignored in per-app profiles.
If your screen becomes unusable after setting a resolution, wait for ~15 seconds. It should revert to your default resolution.
If that does not work, reboot -> wait for 2 min (for the service to start) -> reboot again -> wait for service to start.
If that too does not work (I certainly hope that you won't have to do this), issue the following commands in adb shell (using a pc):
For JB 4.3 and above:
Code:
wm size reset
wm density reset
wm overscan reset
Below JB 4.3:
Code:
am display-size reset
am display-density reset
Also please note that uninstalling the app won't restore default display settings. So please switch the service off first, if you want to uninstall. Also tell me why you uninstalled it.

Thank you all for the amazing response! 10000 downloads at the end of 1 week! (XDA + bitly link)
Thanks to XDA Portal and Phone Arena, and other tech blogs, for featuring the app. It means a lot, to get this kind of exposure for one of the first apps of mine.
A bit of background
I have a Nexus 4, and it's display started to develop problems a few months back. The nav bar area stopped registering touches at all (though ghost-touches were experienced quite frequently). I managed with pie controls and similar apps for a while. But more recently, this area began to increase, and almost 50% of my screen doesn't respond to touch now. I was looking for a software solution to make the phone usable till I can replace the digitizer and screen of my phone. Then I stumbled upon an adb shell command, wm, which could do a temporary fix for my touch screen issues. I thought I'd make a GUI for the functionality offered by the wm command, and the end result is what you see in this thread.
What Next?
I'm planning to implement per-app profiles, and automatic density calculation for the next major version of the app.
Suggestions are welcome.
Some credits

It does work in Lollipop. You can see that the screenshots are in fact taken in 5.1 Lollipop.
It should work with M too. I don't have a device to check that right now. Maybe I'll test it out in M emulator as soon as possible.
great app, helpful for me!

forgive my ignorance but is this just an easy way to change the (or what was) "ro.sf.lcd_density=XX" in the build.prop or is there something special to this? I realize there's more to it vs the build.prop edit, but it does kinda/sorta the same type of thing? not discrediting the feature...Just curious Thanks again!

Actually, it's an easy way to issue the adb command wm (or am before JB 4.3).
Check this SO question for more details on wm command: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18500611/android-how-to-use-adb-shell-wm-to-simulate-other-devices.
I started building this app because parts of my screen stopped working, actually. Then I thought, it could be useful more generally.

Just switch the service off using the switch in action bar. If your display has somehow become unusable, follow instructions in OP, under the heading "Important Information". If you have uninstalled the app, resetting can be done using the adb commands mentioned there.
First of all, Avast Mobile Security detects your app as suspicious and advises uninstalling it immediately. I hope there are no malwares
Btw, about the app, as soon as I gave it root access, my device hot-rebooted and got stuck in a bootloop. Then I switched it off and restarted it, device started optimizing all the apps (just like after fresh rom install). Everytime I open the app my device reboots
Device - Note 2 N7100
ROM - CM12.1

Um that's bad. Well, you are free to examine the source if there's any doubt. It could be because app requests root, or permission to get to know call state changes, so that when a call comes, display can be adjusted to default resolution (this behavior can be configured in settings).
As for the hot-reboot, I wonder what the problem is... Can you uninstall the app and try issuing these commands directly using adb, and see whether reboot happens then?
Code:
wm size WIDTHxHEIGHT
wm overscan LEFT,TOP,RIGHT,BOTTOM
wm density DENSITY
Replace the Upper caps words with required values.

Hey thanks for that! I'll definitely add this. Meanwhile, there are still some hard-coded strings in the app (like button texts etc), which I'll move to strings.xml, and update the project soon. Will it be asking too much to provide translations for those as well?

Yes, I know where it is. But you need to wait some time. I have other projects. Sorry. It's all about not enough time and financial resources. You can try other my other MM releases. Especially BeanStalk and Temasek's CM13. Try what works best for you.
Plans have changed. I'll bring a SNAPSHOT build soon, with necessary fixes.

NEW SNAPSHOT BUILD
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=385035244224386332
Installation: Full wipe/Flash ROM + OpenGApps
You can use this build for now. I need to do more corrections, so I'll bring my best version soon and will delete this one later.
What will be changed in the future release:
1. Snap video recording will be corrected (not a big deal, you can successfully use Open Camera for that)
2. I'll remove some system apps, (like stock browser) and post it here, so if you really need it, you can just download apk files and install it as user apps. (This is for improving performance)
3. I'll remove screen blinks (Am I only one who see it? Let me know, leaving a comment)
Previous build made by rata** (r3t3ch) was removed. I want to emphasize he made that build. His toxic behavior and manner of talking speak for itself. Clearly, he's not an adult human being. He doesn't want to admit his mistakes, thinks he's a center of the universe, knows everything and poops in the brain if you just trying to help him. This is unacceptable and I will not stand such a toxic behavior.
What's new:
1. You can normally watch YouTube now (no patchy sound, it was easier than I thought)
2. Stock browser was replaced with Gello browser (already regret about it, the size is too big. Though it works)
If you'll find something not working, leave a comment here, I'll check it and if I'll not find it - shame on you. Though you can prove me wrong using logic and facts.
Hello,
Is there a suitable kernel for cm13 which allows for CPU to run at 1.7mhz, CPU voltage adjuster, USB fast charge, and speaker gain adjuster? Any number of adjustments is fine.
Thanks

Texas Instruments' description the maximum is 1.5mhz, so clearly I don't recommend you to find a suitable kernel for cm13 which allows for CPU to run at 1.7mhz. You can try AudioFx or DSP Manager to adjust your speaker.
I have no time for custom kernels. I'm too busy, you know. And unfortunately, often too much distracted (which is the main reason why I do these things so slowly). I need to correct CM13, Omni, Slim6, CandySix + bring 3 more AOSP MM ROMs (it's close, finally I found missing piece to make it boot), so I can say my job is finally done (I'm not satisfied for now). I want to finally start working on Nougat for tate.
Ok, everything seems fine except Snaps video recording. If I'll not find solution for that, I'll just bring last version of this SNAPSHOT and then move on. I have a lot to do.
Also, seems like nobody uses Google Calendar. (error -505 in the Play Store). The solution in the description.
PLEASE REDOWNLOAD THE BUILD
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=385035244224386732
Installation: Full wipe/Flash ROM + OpenGApps
I can't fix Snap Camera video recording for now. My advice to you: disable Snap Camera or better delete it (I always delete system Camera). Install Open Camera or another 3rd party app. No problems with 3rd party camera apps (Of course, I didn't try them all, it's impossible) And let's be realistic: you won't get good images or videos with this type of camera anyway. The purpose of this camera is video calling which it does. (not sure if it works with 3.0.101+ kernel but 100% I've seen Hangouts video calling working on one of my MM ROMs).
Like I promised, no screen blinks for now and I've removed some system apps (which you can find in the description if you need it).
I need to move on to the next ROMs now.

Hey Alex,
Great job in creating these ROMs, I will test them out as soon as possible and will of course provide feedback, hopefully all goes well. Also if you are planning on bringing nougat for this device, then you my friend are a wizard! Can't wait to hear back from you.
Edit: Okay... For some it keeps on saying "download failed" for the open_gapps-arm-6.0-pico-20161028, I've tried downloading it from github as well. Man, such bad luck already at 2:50am =(
Finished downloading the ROM before though.

Quick request, whenever I try and download open_gapps-arm-6.0-pico-20161028 it keeps on saying "download failed" when it comes to finishing at around 106mb. Is it possible if you can upload this in Google drive (or any other cloud server) so that I can download this without it failing. I've tried looking for aalternative websites where I could download the gapps, but it ended the same way xD. Thanks bro! =)

Alright, got it to download =)
The boot time took around 4 minutes, I was really surprised when I saw Android Upgrading because everything looked so different, the looks of it beats them all. The setup was quick and simple. My first impressions of the ROM were that it looks good and is more reliable than android 5.1 (my experience with 5.1 was dreadful, too laggy!) The reason as to why it's more reliable is because for once the stock camera app actually works! This got me surprised. For kernel adiutor I did configure the "low memory killer" and chose very aggressive, however, since this is marshmallow I understand how much RAM it takes up, I had around 240mb of RAM left so not really sure if that's a good or a bad thing (in this case). Battery seems decent enough. For quadrant standard, I ran the full test and got around 12,398 that's actually quite good considering on android 4.4 I usually get around 8,000-9,000. I just want to know why the GPU OC is set on 384 as max. I did encounter a lot of minor bugs, in this case in the settings app whenever I click on a GUI the borders on top go from its original colour to black constantly. In the quick settings, whenever I were to click night mode, it would show the screen blinking for around a second or two (not sure if this is normal).
Regardless of the minor bugs, this ROM has potential! Hopefully in future releases you can get it to work more stable and lagfree. Can you recommend me which of the android 6.0 ROMs work best for you? Thanks man! This ROM still beats any android 5.1 I've tried on this device.
Kind regards,

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!
Nice post, okij

[*]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. Also, forcing dark theme via Dark Tricks Xposed module doesn't work.

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

wow, great work @tuxdude143!!
cant wait to try this rom, keep the good work bro...
Updated the opening post to reflect that music playback does actually work but FLAC files seem to be a bit fiddly. They refuse to work in the stock music player and some apps like BlackPlayer but they will play just fine in other apps like VLC or Foobar2000. Your mileage may vary.
MP3 playback works absolutely fine in all apps.
In the next build I plan to have bluetooth and rotation working and I'll try and bundle the nubia camera and gallery into the rom itself.
Thanks for your effort to develop for this device. Hope to try your rom as soon as my device arrives
Thanx

Thank you Tuxdude for making a custom rom for our Nubia M2.
i did install the rom and seems to be a beginnig of a good rom for our phones
unfortunatly i can not test this rom for long because bluetooth is not functioning and i need my bluetooth every day so i hope this will be solved soon
so i can do some long term testing and use it as dayly rom to help to find the bugs left and give more imput

Thank you Tuxdude. And thank you to Roland for make me aware of this ROM.
Do you have an idea of when do you plan to post the new build? Bluetooth is really necessary.
Anyway, I'll test it, as I can live without Bluetooth for the next few days. I hope there'll be few days
EDIT: I've been trying out the ROM. So far, so good. I don't have those reboots that I had with Lineage using substratum. Almost every hour I had a reboot. Not with Carbon.
EDIT 2: After more than 24 hours of use and two times charged, I can tell that battery use, even as we know that we have to let the ROM settle, is very high. From 100% to 15% in just 5 hours. Two times. Also, it is not a fast ROM. It takes a couple of seconds to register touch and launch the app. It still needs several maintenance and work. But on the plus side, substratum keeps working like a charm.
The only other bug that I found is that the Menu/Recents button doesn't work, even if I change their settings. Changing settings work for the menu button.

Thanks for reporting these bugs. At the moment I'm looking into fixing bluetooth, rotation etc and hope to have them working in the next build.
Battery usage is also something I'm working on. I know Deep Sleep works fine but battery management isn't the greatest. I'll try and either fix that in the next update or the update after.
Thanks for the feedback!

Bluetooth is really important, so please help us solving this issue first.
But the reliability and choppiness issue is huge on my phone. Even with the ROM installed and no other app or tweak on it, it is really slow to launch a default app. Also, I'm using OpenGapps because on the link that you wrote for MindtheGapps, I cannot install it. The Play Store is there, but as soon as I launched it, a message saying that I don't have Google Play Services installed pops out. And going to recovery to reinstall it gets me on the same message. I even tried to install both ARM versions that are on the site, but with the same results. And in one instance, I just installed the ROM with no Gapps, and the same slow launching times happen, even launching the calculator app takes a few seconds.

I'm using opengapps as well. I just did a copy and paste of the thread template for carbonROM when I made the thread which is why the reference to using mindthegapps is there.
I'll probably update the OP to say you should just use openGapps since those seem to work absolutely fine.
Also apologies for no update this week. University has been keeping me busy so I've been juggling around a lot of stuff. I'll look into repairing the major bugs and releasing an update as soon as possible though

Take all the time you may need. As long as it's as soon as possible
I understand. I just wish more people could download and test the ROM, but I suspect Bluetooth is really needed to be working.
I'm using it as my daily driver and I can cope with the glitches, as long as my substratum themes keep working. Also, many people probably don't know this, but with Carbon OS, if you install a layer, there's no need to reboot the system to apply it.
hi guys I want to give you great news ... the automatic rotation works ... you just have to activate all the rotations from the settings :laugh:
WHEW things have been quiet. Sorry for not having posted an update in so long. University has been preventing me from really doing any solid work on this.
I'm planning on trying to make some new builds based against the new device tree, kernel etc that highwaystar is using for the new builds of LineageOS 14.1. The hope is that will fix some of the bugs currently present. I currently have no real ETA for when I'll get that build all sorted out what with being up to my neck in university work but I'll try and get it out there at some point.
Thanks for all your patience, I know how restless you must be for an update and I can understand that. Once I have some more time on my hands then I should be able to pump out a new build

A noob question! Since you don't have VoLTE line it may never be incuded in the ROM. Correct? That being the case, is it possible for you to take the module from other moto devices or say if i could send you my phone's image, could you add the module to rom? It would be really helpful. Eversince I uncloed my device, every update makes me reset the phone and gets stuck on bootloop. It's very time consuming and beats the hell out of me

VoLTE might be included in next builds. If there is a magisk module that fixes it send me the name and I'll see through it
Well I'm really sorry, but I've never rooted any device on custom roms. So I'm clueless to as to what module can help you. But really thank you if you are trying to implement the VoLTE, my phone has been without it for a few months now and i can't makes calls without it. Sorry again
First of all thank you for your efforts. It is my first time installing a custom ROM, I also accidentally lost all my data while using fastboot, but anyways. The ROM is quite smooth and working very well.
I have seen below issues,
- The fingerprint sensor can lock phone, and there is no option to disable it. If you launch an application that requires fingerprint unlocking, auth attempt locks the phone and it becomes annoying after a while.
- There are two camera apps, the (seemingly) default one says "Hardware version does not support portrait mode". And I set a default camera app a few times, but somehow sometimes Android keeps forgetting the default one and asks again.
- FM Radio, not a big deal, but does not have an option to work without wired headphones. Perhaps some apps are not included because this is the bare bones Pixel Android.
Thanks again. I am sure having a solid build takes a lot of effort. The experience is quite nice.
Ps. For a newbie like me, there is no explanation for the difference of Pixel Experience and PE Plus. I am still wondering. I installed the standard one.
Bluetooth Devices
Hello! First of all, thanks for all your efforts for delivering this great ROM.
I'd like to ask a question: in the previous versions (unofficial), Bluetooth devices, such as headphones, did not work. Are they working in this version?
Thanks.

Hello!
I've succesfully installed the Plus version of this ROM. The process was smooth (for the first time after trying many different ROMs!).
The ROM works very well, and I really like it.
However, I've experienced one small bug: Backup on Drive and WhatsApp is not working. It is stuck on "waiting for backup". I have searched for some solution online: I tried cleaning Drive's cache and forcing the app to stop, I tried some commands through ADB (following the instructions on this link https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8/how-to/guide-google-backup-waiting-to-backup-t3895101) .
This has partially fixed the bug: now the Data App are backed up but not the other things (contacts, SMS, etc.).
Is anyone else experiencing a similar issue?
Thanks in advance!
Bug: When I press and hold an icon in the app drawer, sometimes a black or colored rectangle appears around that icon.
I'm using the normal version and latest update.

Yes the do!
The reason why it wasn't official before was due to that issue but now it's solved

Are bluetooth calls working fine? What about call recording?
