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.
Install Instructions:
Flash the newest factory image
Move your ROM + GApps + TWRP.zip to your internal storage
Boot the TWRP.img ->Wipe Data, Cache, & System -> Flash the ROM as well as the TWRP.zip

Remember, every penny you send to us goes right back into the rom. It's used for hardware, server costs, etc - all the things that help us make Carbon better with every release. Your support means the world to us! If you've enjoyed Carbon, please consider a donation toward this goal. Thank you, and we hope you continue to enjoy Carbon!

It does. And the Rom is quite stable too.

---

I've been on this ROM since it launched for pixel XL, and I must say it's been super stable with great battery life. Using flash kernel, rock solid and super stable with great features. I highly recommend

---

@shagbag913 is there any way that you could incorporate the phone feature to block private unknown and selected collars into this ROM? There is another rom in the pixel XL forums that has this in the ROM when no other one has it. I tried to get it by taking blockedcontactsprovider.apk from that rom into another but didn't get those settings to come up.

October update?

It's only October 3rd, give the dev more than 2 days before asking about updates.

---

October updates will be available after they get merged into the CarbonROM org. All sources have been transfered to CarbonROM's github now, instead of CarbonBeta, FYI.

---

Awesome thanks bud!

---

Eagerly waiting...

I went ahead and compiled just the kernel... since it addresses the charging issues (see here) that some Pixel users have been experiencing. Remember; this is literally just the stock kernel - but built with clang 6.0.2, and upstreamed (and a few other things I can't think of), so if you're on a different kernel that already has October patches merged in, don't bother flashing this.
Just flash it like any other kernel, it will preserve magisk. Some other changes that are included (which will be included in the next CarbonROM update):
# Upstreamed to 3.18.123
# merged in October security patches
# Set the kernel name to CarbonROM
# Disabled EFI (We don't use it anyways)
# Compiled out temperature polling
# Removed KCAL; this was never even enabled in the defconfig, so there was no point in having it.
Here's the download link

CarbonROM with October security patches are now available, here. This also includes a fix for the developer options FC when not using English.
To update:
Boot into TWRP ->Wipe Cache & System -> Flash the ROM as well as the TWRP.zip
Reboot to recovery via TWRP (Reboot -> Recovery)
Flash new vendor.img -> Flash GApps -> Reboot to System -> Enjoy CarbonROM
This months radio image is the same, however the bootloader is not. I would recommend flashing it.
You can find the new vendor image and bootloader image at this link.
