I'm not getting LTE on Carbon Rom. should i revert back to MD7? I was originally on it, but recently upgraded to MG2.

If you flashed the fix then you might need to go to settings/more/mobile networks/access point name and make sure lte is selected and also network mode is lte/cdma/evdo.

I'm on Carbon's 11/5/13 nightly with lte.

Have you tried sending mms on LTE? I tried it last night and it didn't send for me. On 3g it works fine though.

Is anyone else on Carbon rom unable to get the camera to open? It says gallery has stopped every time. I have reflashed and tried restoring camera/gallery backups and nothing works.

I got mms working but only by manually setting it up in handcent.

edit: ok I don't know why but I went into google goggles and that camera worked. I then went into google keep and opened the camera from within that app and it also worked. I tried to open the camera app after taking a pic in google keep and it actually works now. Just rebooted and it still is good.

roud:

Maybe I just needed to save a pic in the gallery location, who knows....

I use this camera on carbon and it works great.

You could go into recovery and fix permissions.

I had tried that with no change. But it is working now anyway, thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks this looks like what I want. Backing up now and I'll give it a shot.

That's crazy. I haven't had a single issue with the camera through multiple versions of carbon and numerous other aosp roms. What gapps are you using?

Edit: may be a bad download of rom.

mikel81 · Nov 7, 2013

8-13 jb gapps

I even reflashed the last rom I was using (midnight) and verified camera was working, then wiped and reinstalled carbon fresh.

And it appears mms send decided to stop working...

Hey, what settings did you use to get it to work?

My next post is that it had stopped working unfortunately. I just manually added the apn into mms. here are the settings > FIXED: Can't send MMS? Sprint / Boost / Virgin Mobile APN Settings Problem! - xda-developers

Strangely the default messaging app works to send and receive mms now; after I set handcent as default for sms+mms. :hmmmm:

Anything else for mms? I can't send or receive.

fcrjr · Nov 7, 2013

I'm really hoping we can get mms working. As I said in a previous post, mms sends fine on 3g but won't send at all on 4g. Also, something I forgot to mention was that my data was acting a bit weird. Sometimes I would lose data completely for a few seconds and then it would come back. Also, after the data went away I would get an error saying (I cant remember exactly what it said) " something something stopped working."

I decided to flash back to my previous rom (punkmaxx's slim rom) until someone can get this sorted out.

Sorry for the late reply but here ya go.

Carbon Rom nightlies:

Carbon: http://download.carbon-rom.comd2spr/nightly

For MMS send/ receive and working LTE, flash the Mod #1 from this thread. Thanks to these brilliant developers and helpful members, this works perfectly for me.

For me with 11/5 nightly Carbon and fix #1
3G works,
mms send works,
mms receive doesn't work

(i have latest firmware)

11/5 Carbon nightly camera is working fine for me, as is Focal camera.

I did try creating an additional user, and then when that user tried to use the camera it did do what you described, but that's probably something different just thought I'd mention it.

I wish Carbon would add in the user stuff into their version as well, like you get with tablet versions of android. neway

Strange. Im on build 11/1. Maybe that particular build that you are on is preventing this apn mod fix from working somehow. I can't see why it would though. Are you on the stock kernel? I would maybe try wiping everything except your internal and external sd card and reflashing. I hate to say that and I know it's tedious, but it sometimes fixes many problems like this.

killaphatboy · Nov 8, 2013

I'm also on 11/5 and I can send and receive.

Edit: I have to have lte toggled off before sending for it to send/receive.

thanks for the reply. Actually I was skimming the thread and your post about it working on carbon with #1 caught my eye as 4g isn't even supposed to work with #1 fix.

After your comment about apn fix, i went back further and saw the note to:

>If you flashed the fix then you might need to go to settings/more/mobile networks/access point name and make sure lte is selected and also network mode is lte/cdma/evdo.

which I gather is whatcha meant by apn fix, missed it before.

After doing that likewise lte/4g works now.

With lte/4g on I can:

send sms: yes
receive sms: yes
send mms: yes
receive mms: no

Just giving feedback in hopes it helps those working on this, I can work around not having full mms.

Good! Glad to see you got it working...minus the mms receiving. Hopefully with official 4.3 coming soon (to sprint), these problems will soon be a thing of the past.

Dunno where else to post so I'll just drop this here.

_inKredible_ · Nov 12, 2013

How's it working out? What bugs are there? Looking good!

lordmage · Nov 12, 2013

wish i had skill i would do a pure google stock 4.4 for are d2vmu but i suck bad. real bad.

sean19661 · Nov 13, 2013

I guess none of the mms mods work on the newest carbon nightly

slogold · Nov 13, 2013

For those of you who are interested, I have successfully flashed the Carbon ROM Nightly 11/11/13. I have been running it for 48hrs. with no force closes and no problems. I used the T1 MMS fix. I do have 4G/LTE and 3G service.

MMS send 4G/LTE No
MMS receive 4G/LTE No
MMS send 3G Yes
MMS receive 3G Yes

acewonders · Nov 14, 2013

I can send/recieve MMS as well as use 3G and LTE,. but both 3G and LTE work very poorly compared to the previous APNs I had setup, also tethering no longer seems to work well.

iMaYG · Nov 17, 2013

did anyone manage to LTE to work with MIUI?

i fell in love with this rom but apn's remain blank after i flash the fix.

doesnt the sprint version of MIUI use CM as a base???

3g is the only thing that works without having to fix anything

trr · Nov 17, 2013

Good news. I am running APN fix 2. Google updated their hangouts application to send SMS and MMS. I managed to be able to both send and recieve MMS flawlessly. Hope this helps you guys.
