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...
What is PAX?
Our release of Android 10, titled CR-8.0, is codenamed PAX after the latin word for peace and Pax, the roman godess for peace.
PAX provides you with the features you need while keeping the focus on delivering an elegant, smooth, and well polished experience. PAX delivers a set of unique features, like a systemwide font engine that also allows for applying fonts on user apps while supporting user fonts through custom APKs generated on fonts.carbonrom.org. We are confident you'll love it, and there's many more things to discover
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! As always, make sure to do backups.
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 or Telegram group! 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.

Thank you very much!

Bug report - RIL fails when attempting to call
Clean install, SIM inserted, carrier service signal OK after reboot.
Running phone dialer app when placing call - I get immediately 'no service' ('x' on carrier signal icon).
Only way to restore is reboot, but bug is persistant.

crash starts at line 869
RIL fails at line 1633:
TinyALSA-Audio RIL Interface: ril_connect() failed

I can't adapt for CarbonROM at the moment, because I need to download the source code to the HD and at the moment I don't have enough space. As soon I can, I generate the adaptation.

Clean ROM and no gapps, GPS Test shows no location
(No Fix). What do you mean by "Working GPS"?

I knew I was forgetting something. Sorry

OKEY
I decided not to continue with the maintenance of the bliss as it takes 2 times longer to compile due to the immense amount of fonts and other things that I have no idea what it is, doubling the file size and the costs with the server.
In order not to open another topic, I decided to modify this one and move on.
For anyone who was wearing bliss, sorry. Keep good memories.
Link of CR-8.0 build available on OP.

Hello.
Sorry, if you are a real ROM developer then please look at the camera driver in the open source code published by Samsung for the model GT-I9100P, there mentioned a possibility to take pictures (and may videous) with 10bit per color component colour depth! (Currently our device can take 8bit photos only.)
Please, if you are programmer then make a ROM which takes 10bit photos (may 10bit RGB TIFF, 32bit per pixel PNG or at least 10bit RGB DNG).
I can offer bounty of 50USD if you will able to do it for me and for others.
May you can make this improvement to the device as a paid patch and sell it.
If you will achieve that then it will be a great step beyond for our old Galaxy S2.
I had attached a photo taken by our device and we can expect yet more rich colour improvement together with a significant dynamic range widening if 10bit colour depth will be achieved.
P.S.: May you can cooperate with the people from PentaxHack web-site.
