Probably your only choice since it sounds like something got corrupt from maybe a TI restore or Google restore. Or possibly if you were removing some apps something got deleted by accident.

These are want normally cause what you are quoting.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] J-Buck:
I reflashed the rom without wiping, and my gps still isn't locking in for navigation.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Reflashed 2.1 over existing flash (because among UOT mods I tried was a font change and that was a mistake. Picked a bad font for my 50+ year old eyes). Still can't find those 2 HTC widgets (weather; flip clock) but don't really care because I don't use them, and don't want the weather running in background burning a hole through my battery. Funny thing is, the other HTC widgets are there (and I don't use them either....)

Meanwhile, only thing I haven't tried is TV out (which I will tonight). Otherwise, 2.1 is rock solid; no phantom reboots; no issues; able to listen to music on \emmc with PowerAmp, my preferred player.

Nice work; think I'm here to stay for a while.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bikercr:
I've also reflashed 2.0. I had various problems with 2.1 including overheating, dialer weirdnesses, and very rapid battery use. I'm not sure if it was the upgrade, the Netflix fix (which I subsequently removed because it broke Listen), or the weather lockscreen which I reverted back to plain wallpaper. Even with the reversions on 2.1, awake time and up time were always nearly equal. I think most of my problems are kernel related so going back to 2.0 probably won't help, but I'm going to check it out.

I love this ROM, but the power issues may force me to go back to Virtuous until we can get a custom kernel. I'll watch for a day or two and repost about whether reverting to 2.0 fixed everything.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rfarrah:
The font issue was one of the things holding me back. Which one did you go with?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
I came back to the default font in the ROM. I was looking in the preview on the UOT to see if anything appeared "bolder" and I *believe* I picked Ubuntu based on that, but the actual font was far more wiry and significantly harder to read. Typically, I can function without my reading glasses using the phone and the default font, but it was almost impossible with that font.

When I flashed 2.1 again over my existing 2.1 install, I got back the default fonts. I also then: (1) change the boot animation to Call of Android; (2) reinstall my ringtones and delete the ones I don't ever use; (3) put the sd card speedfix script in the init.d; and then (4) reflash the UOT circle battery *without* font change.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
Battery ... ugh

I will add 1 more vote to the 'this is eating through batteries.' I show very high usage for "plugin sample" (whatever that is) and "calendar" (an App I have NOT run since charging it, overnight, with the power off). I am down 20% from a powered off charge in 1 hour (on an extended battery).

I am running 2.1 with no tweaks (no weather lock screen; whatever that is), and I running the stock kernel. I have made NO customizations and am not running NetFlix or the fix. This is a pure install, with no titanium restore.

Any ideas?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Have you turned off the sync stuff you don't use? Like stocks, news etc.

I run this on 2 phones and I get decent battery life but I sync everything manually except weather which is every hour.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
You may want to try this font

DejaVuSans

If enough people try it and like it I will include it in the future
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rfarrah:
Okay, now I (once again) have no excuse. Flashing it all over my lunch hour. Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] serpentine009:
My input below...

1. Some people were asking about MyBackup Pro vs. Titanium. With version 1.x I used Titanium to restore apps (no data) and had a ton of problems. With 2.0 I used MyBackup Pro to restore apps (no data). Of those I have 4 that I decided to restore with data (Handcent, SMS Backup, Profile, and AutosaveMMS)...after I restored those, Handcent kept FCing. So I removed it and have been using stock messaging. Of my data, I only restored my playlist, and once I did that, Google Music Beta FCed. So I removed it. No problems since. Running Smooth.

2. I noticed that Fast Web Install for AppBrain won't work.

3. Stock HTC Mail setup for Gmail as Exchange Server is in a constant state of sync....so I removed that account and use Gmail app.

4. Those items mentioned don't bother me one bit...I just wanted to report them.

This ROM is pretty sweet. Prior to this I was primarily on on HeyItsLou's ROMs. Most recent on Senseless Redemption. This ROM made me realize how much I missed Sense, and like the new Sense. Keep up the great work. I flashed 2.1 over 2.0 last night only wiping Dalvik first. And so far all seems well.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] slosh:
Nils is there any way we can have the 3.0 keyboard with HTC trace. Love the trace feature. Thanks for a great rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phoenixs4r:
I've always used mybackuppro and handset never restores properly, always have to un install then reinstall.

HTC mail set to push my gmail works fine, but took quite awhile to fully sync all the mail I actually had.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tjamscad:
Nils have you thought of making the green selection box blue to match your theme.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tjamscad:
Except for errors I have created this Rom is great
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Flashed that font and as a great mentor of mine would say, "excellent."

Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tjamscad:
Can we just copy the apk for the app we want to reinstall and add them to the data/app in the zip file
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tjamscad:
Works for me
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bikercr:
Nils-- My phone seems to be running better with the 2.0 version loaded back. I've turned off the weather lockscreen. Battery is lasting just a bit longer but still going down too fast. I sync everything manually except weather (every 3 hours). I think the real problem is the phone failing to go into sleep mode with the screen off. My uptime and awake time are within about 15 minutes after the phone has been up for close to 7 hours with screen off most of the time. This has got to be at the root of my battery problem. Any ideas? Is this a kernel issue that can't be fixed right now?

Thanks for your expertise.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
It really depends on the application. Most market apps can just be added to the ROM zip file in the /data/app/ folder. Some have a lib folder and if so the lib has to also be added to the /system/lib/ folder.

You must has some app that is stopping the phone from going to sleep when the screen is off. The awake and up time should never be that close and I am not experiencing that on either phone.

You can post me a list of what apps you have installed after the ROM and I will see if I can figure it out.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phoenixs4r:
Update for this, my HTC mail syncing will not stop now, as the previous poster mentioned.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Look in Settings > Accounts & Sync and see which one is syncing and stop it there and turn off auto sync. Then go into the mail app and manually sync it. Let me know if it stops after a reasonable period of time.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rfarrah:
I am for anything taller/bigger and I appreciate the effort.

Also, kind of in that same regard, I used the UOT Kitchen to create the larger "LED" Battery Percentage display. I'll post it below along with a screenshot in case anybody wants to try it. (Hope that's okay.)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] g00gl3:
First, I want to say that I am running V2.1 without any issues. I did perform a complete wipe before installing V2.1 cleanly. Thanks NilsP for the great work!

As for the HTC Mail sync, I sync with Exchange at work. I use the push mail settings and don't have any issues at all.

However, I have seen issues with continuous sync'ing in the past. My wife is running V1.5 and she had non-stop sync'ing.

I found, using the same method that NilsP explainined above, that her calendar was causing the continuous sync'ing.

I made her go through her calendar and look for any "out of the ordinary" formats to any of the calendar entries.

She did find one entry that had an address in the body as well as some special characters.

Once she deleted the entry the sync stopped. She no longer has the sync'ing issue.

I would recommend looking for the one event or message that is holding up the sync. If you are lucky it will stand out from the rest.

Good luck! :cool:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Wow, that's nice, easier to read than the circle battery icon, only thing is if I flash it, I'll need to reflash the fonts Nils' posted.

Oh well....what's recovery for, after all?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rfarrah:
The fonts won't hold? I thought stuff just kind of added up - not removing any previous mods..... hmmmm. Maybe I'd better pay more attention! :eek:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Actually, I think they did..... I noticed that the DeJavu font was "too tall" for the Dropbox app and I still notice that after flashing the digital battery. I know the default font didn't have that issue, so you must be right.

Thanks again.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hooya:
Two questions:

:confused:: Does the rotating Rosie flashover work on 2.1? Or will it break something? I didn't flash it yet as I wasn't sure.

:confused:: I can't find a free, non-trial version of PowerAMP anywhere to play music off of EMMC. Link?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bikercr:
The one possible culprit is Huffington Post. I've pulled it and will see if things drastically improve. I didn't have this problem with Froyo. I will keep you posted. Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Rotating Rosie will replace a few icons and the Rosie launcher will be back to stock. Plus no right button mod.

Yeah, I see that PowerAmp free is no longer totally free,

I guess one thing we have to keep in mind is that not all apps have caught up to Android 2.3.3 yet so that may be the problem.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rfarrah:
I noticed that, too. Just cooked the Decker font. We'll see if it is any better.

Here it is if anybody wants to try it.

Woops, just noticed that I lost my LED battery on that flash. Hmmmmmm.

And Decker is smaller. Looks okay, but not easier to read for me. The search continues....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
If anyone wants to try blue theme for icons and overlays give this a shot.

It will replace any mods you put in with UOT kitchen like the battery icons

Blue Stuff
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Tommymac1039:
Any screen shots of blue?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] iowabowtech:
Noticed a couple things when leaping to 2.1. SMS message popups were badass before, kinda had a reflection on the popup, now that's gone. Also, I'm getting dual sound notifications sometimes when I get a text and I don't have any other SMS apps running. Any thoughts?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jsprake1:
Maybe a little darker blue for the theme? But no hi cups yet.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Nope. Just where it was green before it is now blue. Like when you press on something ort check marks etc.

I will have to check the message popups. I may have done that trying to theme it.

See what I can do
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bchandler78:
Nice Mod thanks for sharing!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] omniatic:
I've noticed Google contacts likes to sync every time I turn on the screen. Disabled contacts in the menu, and will sync manually since I don't add too many in on a regular basis.

Tried the blue, but reflashed back to green; noticed a mix of green and blue in some areas, and liked the green better.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdog94:
has anyone found a way to use netflix fix without screwing up other things?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
Voice Dialer?

Now that I am on v2.1 my bluetooth push no longer triggers a "say a command" prompt, and cannot voice dial. Music still works.

I THINK it could be due to "bluetooth Voice Dialer" not being part of v2.1, but I could be wrong.

Nils - Can you please let me know what program a bluetooth button push is set to run on the phone AND if that file is properly accessible? In the alternative, does anyone know how I can install "Voice Dialer" (which is different than Voice Search; unless Nils says that the rom runs Voice Search).

Thank you very much!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hooya:
So.... My wife hates the lockscreen for when a call comes in. She can't manage to effectively answer the phone. I tried going in to display settings and checking "stock android lock screen" but it didn't change. She's on 2.0, mine doesn't change either and I'm on 2.1.

Any ideas? Reboot doesn't help.

Ideally I'd just like the old style answer/decline thing to come up instead of the fancy lockscreen. Honestly I'd like it that way on my phone too.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] KrisPeezy:
Nils, any chance we can get a flashable backup assistant?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Not yet but we are working on it. Just have to find the right combination of libs

Voice search is in the ROM and should handle voice dial. Have you activated it by pressing and holding the right hard search button? It won't work until you get through the first prompt or 2

I will have to look at that. I guess since the lock screen is the main draw of the ROM I never tried disabling it.

If I remember correctly dragging the ring up answers the call. Give that a try.

Not sure BA works on GS but I will check it out. I thought it was in the market so check there.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bikercr:
Nils-- just as an update, uninstalling Huffington Post app fixed the awake time problem and my rapid battery drain. Wonder why this app doesn't play nice with gingerbread. I'm going to try going back to Gingersense 2.1 from my current GS 2.0. Does this require a full wipe or just a flash-over?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
From 2.0 to 2.1 should be a flashover. Obviously if you have problems then do a full wipe.

On the Huffington I would contact the developer and see where he/she is with compatibility with 2.3.3
[Droid Incredible Android Development] n.Klug:
After reflashing 2.1 after my previous problems, everything works like a dream. 2.1 is running better than ever! One thing that I did differently was not install ANYTHING from titanium. I just pulled every apk onto my SD card and restored each one manually. Took me almost 2 freaking hours. In the end it was worth it though. Not a single problem for the first time pretty much since I started using titanium.

Sent from my Inc using Nil's Business Gingersense. Now that's Incredible.

Voice Dialer in Bluetooth Not Working

Nils - I have long presssed the magnifying glass, and voice search comes up. That does not help here, though. The bluetooth devide is processing and controlling music fine (MEDIA PLAY_PAUSE and MEDIA STOP), and if i place or receive a phone call by hand, the bluetooth device picks up that call. The only thing not happening, is that it will not run voice command or voice dialer, if you push the button.

I know from prior work by Steve on Magnolia, that the system wants to run (Bluetooth) Voice Dialer (he was unable to get it to to trigger Voice Command). Would you please be so kind as to please check to see if your ROM is triggering Voice Command? Otherwise, I strongly suspect that the bluetooth voice dialer is the target, and is missing.

This is my only outstanding problem with this ROM. I am not getting FC's, figured out that I needed a higher HTC Sync to process Gingerbread, etc. Can you please look into this? Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
Bluetooth - Part 2

I have now confirmed the problem, and have a temporary solution.

I took VOICEDIALER.APK out of the Magnolia build, and put it into the apps/system directory of v2.1, changing the permissions as required. This confirmed that pushing the bluetooth button in v2.1 attempts to run "com.android.voicedialer" on the phone, so the problem is that this app is not present in v2.1. Bluetooth dialing should be broken for everyone as is.

The apk from magnolia crashed on v2.1, though, so I took the voicedialer.apk out of Cyanogenmod's nightly build, and put that into system\apps. I can confirm that bluetooth dialing is fixed if you do this. I have attached it, but for those who do not trust, feel free to take it out of CyanogenMod.

Nils - Can you include in your next update? I suspect that will be a lot easier than trying to hack the system to run Voice Command; although that would be MUCH better :)

Hope this helps people.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Will do. It is strange that the g2g file was there but not the apk. Thanks for diagnosing it and I will include it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
:)

My pleasure. I think with this I am going to stay on your excellent ROM. Since I don't run Netflix and have no interest in themeing, the rom is great.

On the original issue ... if you COULD get the ROM to run Voice Command instead of Voice Dialer, that would be amazing, as Voice Command does the same thing, but is far more versatile. That said, Steve (of Magnolia) tried, and failed, to do it, so it may be hard.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] KrisPeezy:
no backup assistant in the market
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hooya:
Dragging up technically does, but it continues to ring in your hand about 4-5 times before it actually answers the call, in the meantime a big red END CALL button is in the middle of the screen begging to be touched, which hangs up before the call is connected. Really odd behavior.

I like the ROM for other things than the lockscreen. ;-) At any rate, I like the lockscreen just not the way you answer the phone with it, I prefer just the standard or at least bigger things that are farther apart (that are more responsive) to drag.

I did find that by touching the optical trackpad that opens the default ring dialog box with a big GREEN and RED button that you don't have to drag, you just have to touch. This might simply be a side effect of the wake on optical button feature, in which case it's a fine work around.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I was aware of the optical trick but don't use it since it makes it 2 presses instead of one swipe.

I answer the phone every time by swiping the ring up and never had a lag or the continued ringing you get. I wonder why.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] KrisPeezy:
Is it by design that the soft keys stays lit whenever the screen is on, rather than using the light sensor?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
I only just noticed that you can answer the phone by pulling the green button into the ring, the same way you activate a lockscreen application.

You can decline a call by pulling the red button into the ring.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] omniatic:
Nils,

I've been tempted to try out the Bunker Buster DTR on this rom. Would like to find out what your views on it may be. Thought I'd ask, since it looks like they may have a fix for the mobile data FC issue on its way. What do you think?

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] AlmostTactful:
Hey Nils, just wanted to report some findings.

I did a wipe and re-entered all my contacts from scratch and now the people/contact list work fine. However I still can't get my exchange calender to push to my agenda widget. Also I've noticed the bluetooth is a bit rough, sometimes it works with the car extremely well and at other times it will not connect, not sure if it's the ROM or the car but I never had issues with it on Redemption ROM 2.4

Aside from that it's been great, I haven't had a single FC so good work man...also the phone is wicked snappy!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tjamscad:
I love it, by far my favorite Rom. Love the all blue
[Droid Incredible Android Development] iowabowtech:
I thought that was the ONLY way it would work, been doing that way since day one. Lol. Seems like there's multiple options by the sound of it. This is voodoo I tell you. :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] AlmostTactful:
One other thing I did notice....this ROM vs a stock Inc that hasn't been rooted or wiped in 2 years performed almost the same when it came to quadrant. My score was 992 and his was 920, any idea what may be slowing my phone down?

(I just quoted myself so it didn't get lost, still need your thoughts on that haha)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
do it a second time...i got a 980....then 1142 lol

also, anyone using setcpu? i never used it because the kernels i used didn't require it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
Helpful link goes here.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayochs:
haha sweet link...i love reading about task killers and whatnot ...i stopped using them when i came to the inc from the eris
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Don't think it is by design but have not figured out if it was worth attacking as a bug.

Never tried it because others report stability problems. Also, it only seems to help if you reached a threshold. That's the good thing about nand, you can try anything and go back easy.

I get mixed reports on the BT so I guess it is somewhat dependant on what you are connecting to. I will however look into it

I personally went back to the green but I plan on keeing the blue update available.

I don't put much stock in quadrant. If it seems fast it is fast and if it seems slow it is slow. I think the speed of this ROM is reasonable and have not had a problem with keeping up with anything. All abouy how it feels and not the numbers I guess
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
SetCPU fc every time. I don't think it can handle the stock Gingerbread kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Correct. No hook for it in kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MustacheFart10:
Sometimes when I reboot my phone my SMS will randomly re-send messages. They are random messages within the list of sent messages as well (not like it's resending the last message). All these messages were successfully sent the first time as well.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Is this with the stock messaging app or have you added one?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bikercr:
Correct. We have to wait for a custom GB kernel in order to use SetCPU.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] punman:
Just ran into this one: when running Google Voice setup, during the part where it's doing voicemail settings, first it asks you to dial the *71<your voice number>, then after you hit OK, a window pops up with the spinny thing and it says "Configuring Message Settings" (or something to that effect) and just hangs there. You can exit by hitting the Home button but at this point I felt it wise to reboot the phone just in case. Google Voice works just fine, as far as I can tell, and the button 1 hotkey for the dialer does dial my Voice number like it should. It just seems like the setup freezes.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mirrin:
I have had the google voice issue with all of the gb sense 2.0/3.0 hybrid roms if you back out the settings stick it just hacked setup kinda annoying.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] terribL_T:
First off this Rom is sweet. Nils can u update the battery mod and rotating rose flash mode so we don't lose the blue overflow and black and royal blue rosie. Thanks either way bro.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
OK. Both updated in post 3

Let me know how they work
