Is anyone else having the issue of Gmail not syncing both ways? Everything I do in Gmail on the web is synced to my Inc2, but if I do something on the Inc2, it does not perform that action on the web (deleting or starring a message, for instance). None of my sync settings on the Inc2 have changed... background sync is set, auto-sync is set... everything is set properly. I wonder if it is the RMK rom? Behavior is the same on 3G and WiFi. Anyone else notice this?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Meltdown03:
I get that sometimes too. Try clearing data for gmail in "Manage applications"
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] eriscentro:
coming from CM7, sense looks nice, especially with PearlMikeJam's sense 3 addon. I noticed internet pass-through, but is it free, or does it go through VZW (I get charged). Also, it ota disabled, because I see it in settings
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Pandalero:
Thanks for the input... I actually re-installed the Gmail app and that may or may not have done the trick, but it starting working shortly thereafter. I'm good to go.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] abtxpress:
I have never been able to delete gmail from my phone and the server with any droid unless it was pop.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] vitomins:
Everything was working fine until today. Just about 10 minutes ago my phone rebooted on its own and the yellow exclamation point was all that was showing. I did a battery pull and the phone started up normal. After about 30 seconds, the phone shuts down on its own and goes back to the screen with the yellow exclamation point.

I have literally not done anything to the phone that would have caused this. I was working on my computer when my phone vibrated and went to the white HTC screen. What the heck happened?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Un1c0de:
Have you installed rmk's patch? Mine did that until I installed the patch. Just started this morning.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] vitomins:
The one he posted back on July 9th? If so, yes I installed it the same day I installed the ROM...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jrizk07:
Nope,

This one

Sounds like it might be trying to run the OTA but it's failing. Flash the zip above and it'll put you on the newer build number. See if that helps out.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
if you use it, it will either work or not work. if it works then you wont be charged, if it isn't working the web browser wil bring u to a verizon websiote saying u need to pay for the service, so it wont just charge u, and it works for me. didnt have to do anything special
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] vitomins:
Thanks, but how can I get that on the SD Card if this thing keeps rebooting on me??
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
adb reboot recovery

mount, usb mount, and put it on ur sd card in recovery..........
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] vitomins:
Installed the patch and it did not help...still did the same thing. :(

Edit: In the HBOOT screen it says something about an image not found...it disappears quickly, so I cannot really expand on that...It is like 5 lines of green text when HBOOT loads up.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
So what issue are you having?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] vitomins:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16078335&postcount=365

I restored a nand backup I had and now everything seems ok...I wonder what the heck the problem was?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ProtoDroid:
No clue either, this just happened to my girlfriends phone....

she has been having issues with this rom, a couple weeks ago she kept getting reboot loops

So what i did was start fresh

-usb debugging enabled

-fast boot disabled

-reboot into clock work recovery mode using hboot

-wipe data and factory reset

-wipe system

-wipe data

-wipe dalvik cache

-installed zip from sd card

*ginger sense rom

*rmk patch

-reboot

its been only a couple hours but she hasn't come across any issues yet

goodluck
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Slic|<:
Holy **** the battery life on thus phone after a complete 100% discharge after battery wipe is amazing, especially when on stand by! I got a full day and a half with normal usage, including having WiFi on with the option optimization for WiFi checked! That's amazing. :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dogshmog:
I am getting an official OTA notification on my phone from Verizon. I am running this ROM currently. Does anyone know what this update is? Will it remove my S-off? Will it overwrite this ROM etc? It shows the update ID as:

HTC_ADR6350_3.02.605.1 and says 4.218 MB in size. All it says under description is that it will restart the phone for the software update?

Any ideas? I have deferred it for now, but would like to know what this is.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] QBall45:
Ignore the update notice. Find and install rmk's patch which is the same thing as vzws update.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] QBall45:
This is on page. 17 if your using the xda mobile app.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Maglin:
Wifes phone tried to update the ota update. Got the error screen requiring a battery pull. She went to Verizon and thankfully they couldn't help her. Installed new patch and cleared cache and after 5 min it rebooted to install the update again. Had to clear dalvic and clear cache and under update status it still shows the failed update. But when I check for update it says no updates found. Hasn't rebooted yet. Hope it is good now.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] t0adman:
EDIT: Twice in a row. The second I hit post I figure it out. Summary - it was installed. DUH!

Hey all, I downloaded the zip file, put it in a dir I call Custom Roms on my SD card, powered off, powered up into CWM, went to Recovery, prompted to install a zip, browsed to zip location, it said it was installing the zip and I got a confirmation it was complete. I rebooted and nothing is different. What am I doing wrong?

S-Off and rooted of course. TIA
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cvo515:
Did you check about phone and see if you're on GB?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] t0adman:
Yep, checked the version. Thx.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] TB13:
Did you wipe /cache, /data, and /system before flashing? Try that, but first make a backup.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] voxigenboy:
i just installed this ROM and so far so good. it's very fast & responsive like CM7, although unlike CM7 it doesn't seem to have any issues(so far).

i was hoping for something more visually stimulating but this will do anyway.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] applejacks108:
backup assistant doesn't work for me. is there another way to do this?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rmk40:
I'd removed backup assistant. What feature of it specifically are you chasing? Your contacts already get backed up via your Google account.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dc/dc:
I second this.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andrewrh3:
Slow?

Hey, I really like this rom, but it runs very slow on my phone. Any ideas why or how to fix?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rmk40:
Updated with the official FOTA 2.18.605.4 base.

I've pulled the links for .3 for now since it's not relevant anymore.

Enjoy.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] gdi2290:
am I able to flash this over the previous leak? rmk-ROM-vivow_gingerbread_2.18.605.3-r1

also is there a way to flash CityID I like to abuse the free trial and change the hotspot icon to the Sense version
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rmk40:
Yes, I did without problems.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dogshmog:
Does this have the Market in the ROM, or should I flash it separately?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andrewrh3:
I have a problem with Sense-based Roms where deleted emails on hotmail keep coming back after choosing delete. Did a google search and saw people have been having this problem for a few years but I couldn't find a fix. Has HTC really let this continue for that long?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] gdi2290:
where is the new dock app?

PS: there is something wrong with my phone it's as if someone mixed butter and grease inside my phone because this Rom is smooth
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dc/dc:
w00t! Updating when I get back from work. :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] applejacks108:
oooo okay idk why but my contacts aren't backed up via my google account :/ all i got was emails facebook twitter names even nicknames. but no numbers for some reason?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dc/dc:
You have to make sure you are saving contacts to Google. It's not the default on some handsets, including the DInc2. My dad had this problem, and when he lost his Aria, he lost quite a few contacts because he was saving to the phone instead of to Google.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] applejacks108:
thanks, sorry if i sound dumb but how would i go about doing this?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ozymandius100:
Thanks rmk for doing this. I look forward to it getting a sense upgrade and joining the virtuous family.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] millergenuine:
I had this same exact problem on both mine and my wife's phones as well. I used recovery to reload a nand backup on both phones and all seemed fine. I went ahead and installed the new patch from July 9. However, after about 5 hours my phone auto accepted the OTA update, which left me locked in the exclamation screen again!

@Maglin

Thanks, your method worked for me. After wiping both caches, I rebooted and got the failed update screen. I pushed "Cancel" at the failed update screen and then checked for software updates - all looks clear at this point.

Does anyone know how to keep this from happening again in the future?

For example, is there a way to stop Verizon from pushing updates onto my phone without my intervention. Having this happen again where I don't have access to another phone or computer could be a deal breaker.

Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] abtxpress:
Andy, Vit, and Photo, did you install the proper gb firmware and radio file listed in post 2 of this thread? That's something I'm not seeing that you've said you've done? If all you did was flash the Rom and patch then you are probably still running froyo firmware and radio. Post 2 has the PG32IMG zip and instructions.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] abtxpress:
1. Load the Rom fresh after wiping every thing.

2. Go to hboot after putting PG32IMG.zip on root of SD card, select yes and let it update firmware and radio.

3. Flash the patch rmk up loaded for us.

Once your phone is current the ota will stop.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] millergenuine:
Thanks abt, I am already good to go at this point. However, my question is more related to future updates. Won't this happen again if Verizon releases a new OTA update? Based on this experience, I believe it will unless the RMK patch contained a special edit other than the update to the mail app.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] abtxpress:
I'm not sure, I never got the ota notification to start with, nor the gb ota. In fact I have never once with any rooted device got an ota notice.

I did however installed Rom manager and updated recovery from the app. My recovery is cwm 4.0.0.8 and no problems with ota notifications.

The steps I took.

Rooted with alpha rev and installed recovery during root. Then flashed the superuser zip. Then downloaded Rom manager and updated recovery. No ota notices at all.

Edit. I use Rom manager to back up my system images. This way if I brick my toy and can still get into recovery I can restore my last image. Also I have a stock image before I flashed any Rom so I can revert if needed to return to store.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] millergenuine:
Interesting, I followed the same steps as you and got the OTA update. The only thing I didn't do was wipe everything when I initially flashed the ROM. I just wiped the dalvik cache. I have the same recovery version as you do as well.

I plan to keep this Rom and see what happens with the next OTA. This Rom is awesome.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] eriscentro:
So on RMK, even if we get the OTA, it won't autoaccept and turn on security?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] vitomins:
I thought I was in the clear yesterday, but after 5 hours, it started doing it again. This time I wiped cache and dalvik cache, installed the original rom again, did the update in HBoot and then applied the new update posted a few days ago.

The phone made it through the night and as of right now is still running ok...hopefully I have solved the problem. Thanks for all the input!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] funky_snowman:
For some reason SSL (i think) does not work properly on these roms with the stock browser, even with wipe and fresh installation. Works fine on opera, the bloated verizon roms and omgb/omfgb roms though.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk0t:
What kind of environment is the phone in? I'm wondering if it perhaps may not be running into an overheating condition?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] suprdave2:
Just tested it, works fine for me without any problems. Something is broken on your phone.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] funky_snowman:
It doesn't throw errors with every site. Its not the phone...this was after a fresh install, all caches and data cleared, and only the stock browser on this rom.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jcastagnino:
Have you had the update come back? I had the same issue but actually wiped and reinstalled everything from scratch when I got the exclamation screen - didn't realize a davlik and cache wipe would fix it. Then sometime overnight I guess the update tried to force again and I got the exclamation screen again.

Wiped davlik then cache and it rebooted fine. Checked update status it said failed. Checked for new update. None.

So my question is will the update keep forcing itself or is it done trying now.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] BABABANG:
Does anyone else have horrible battery life?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HeroOfTime:
My battery life is really good on this rom. I have had zero issues with it. I guess the question is (and I know it is a dumb one at times) are you taking any battery saving steps or anything? (i.e.: screen brightness, Wi-Fi when available, etc.)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ProtoDroid:
do this^^^ and you'll have nothing to worry about if you keep getting that forced update
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bluedegeon:
Patch still isn't working for me. installed from zip twice already and no changes what so ever. Any idea on why it isn't working?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Un1c0de:
I was having the same issues. I wiped everything (factory reset and dalvik). Flashed the rom and immediately flashed the patch before booting. It's been good so far.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bluedegeon:
damn so that means I have to reinstall everything again >.<
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Un1c0de:
If you let Google backup all of your stuff it will automatically restore your market apps once you log on and sync.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bluedegeon:
I was wondering about that! lol. It restored my apps when I loaded CM7 but I can't figure out how to do it again. Any clue on how? Or is it automatic?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Un1c0de:
Once you sign on with your Google account it should be automatic. It always seems to miss a few on mine.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tnez:
Can someone tell me what version of cwm comes with the radio in the op? Alpharev placed 4.0.1.4 on my phone when I rooted last night and I don't want it replaced by an older version.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JWhetstone02:
Flashing this ROM or any ROM or radio will not replace your cwm. To replace CWM, you will manually have to do it via PB32IMG.zip or through adb So I'd say you're safe
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tnez:
Just looked in the radio file from the op(which is a pg32img.zip) and it does have a cwm 4.0.0.8 install file within the package. Could I use root explorer to unzip the whole package, delete the unwanted cwm file, and then rezip with root explorer?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] abtxpress:
If you want Rom manager to work you will have to have 4.0.0.8.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tnez:
The other radio in posted in the forum doesn't have cwm preinstalled but also doesn't have the touchpad firmware that comes with radio in op. What is the touchpad firmware? Can I do without it? Or should I just flash the radio from the op so I have everything and then just reflash cwm 4.0.1.4 to replace the old one it comes with? Thanks for any help/input sorry for so many questions lol
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tnez:
Don't care for it. See no need for it. Unless I decide to use a Rom that uploads to RM I see no point in using it
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ProtoDroid:
for future reference:

Download something called titanium backup on the market

It's free and you can backup your apps and their data to your SD card

Google app restore requires an internet connection and does not backup app data....also I noticed it doesn't always do it automatically

When that happens you have to redownload apps manually
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JWhetstone02:
Go ahead and flash it. And flash the new CWM if you need to. Not sure about the touchpad firmware
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] thephased:
I got the fail screen earlier today. I cleared/wiped data,cache, and dalvik. Then flashed to the original ginger sense rom again. Then flashed the radio again in hboot with the PG32IMG.zip in this thread and then applied the 3.02.605.1 patch in recovery and let the phone boot. I have 3.02.605.1 software version listed in the Settings. Everything was fine for maybe 5 hours, until I got an OTA notification just a few minutes ago. I canceled it. Now when I go into Software Update it says no update available. I'm worried that Verizon will keep pushing the OTA out regardless if we have this patch.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] devator22:
I am currently running the older RMK ota (the .4 version). If I use the file labled update, will it break the custom sense 3.0 lockscreen that is posted in this forum?

Sent from my Droid Incredible 2 with the XDA app
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jrizk07:
No, it shouldn't.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] abtxpress:
I use Rom manager to back up and restore my system images. I personally believe it has the easiest to us UI for back up and restore. And you can restore your system from cmw recovery if you messed up flashing something.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tangen_cn:
thanks....a lot ....
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tnez:
You can do the same with cwm through the bootloader
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bucwylde23:
I think he's saying that he uses ROM manager because it's easier to manage backups/restores, it's just an easier to use gui.

One thing I like about making backups in ROM manager is you can name them right there before you create the backup.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mattwood2000:
I just took a look in the Firmware package before I install it. I noticed there are actually two touch panel firmware files - one is for Atmel and one is for Cypress. Does this mean that there are some phones out there that have a Cypress touch controller? Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks, Matt.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] spike82:
few day ago i noticed that i can't open the allarm anymore... after the update it continue to not let me set the allarm....

can i do something that isn't a restore?

thanks
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk0t:
Use Titanium Backup to unfreeze it.

For whatever reason, installing/uninstalling apps seems to cause it to freeze.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] spike82:
titanium installed... but now where i can unfreeze the alarm? i can't found it...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Bellypock:

click the app

The Freeze/Unfreeze button should be top center

Ok, done, thanks:)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] franklin270h:
Just had a quick ? relative to this ROM. When toggling between this ROM and Virtuous Unity, I had backed up the Wifi Hotspot app off of the unity ROM...

Out of curiosity I restored it while in Gingersense and it installs just fine, replaces Verizon's 3G hotspot app altogether, linked with the 3G hotspot toggle in the pulldown menu, etc. If I use it, does Verizon pick up on that considering the Wifi hotspot app from unity isn't baked into Verizon's prebuilt stuff? is there any way I can check that?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] paladin03:
no network?

So I've never come across this before, but after applying the upgrade patch via the bootloader I've completely lost my network connectivity. Everything else seems to be in good working order.

The patch reported that it installed correctly.

Steps I've taken to try to regain connectivity:

-I've tried to reinstall the upgrade patch several times (it's always successful)

-I've flashed the 1.09.01.0622 radio from this thread which also installed correctly and shows as the baseband on the phone.

-I am still S-OFF in the bootloader

-I've wiped and flashed to various different roms Ginger Sense, CM7, OMFGB, all work fine but I still have no connectivity other than wifi.

-I've run fix permissions from rom manager as well

-I've left the phone in the corner by itself hoping it would get it's act together after a time out.

I'm at a loss. I would try *228 or *22888 but again when I try to dial I get a message saying "mobile network not available" or in ginger sense the call simply drops.

Any suggestions?

EDIT: I also tried flashing to TIAMAT kernel. No change.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JWhetstone02:
Make sure your battery cover is on your phone? The antennas are built in. Just a thought. It got me my first time lol
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] paladin03:
Hmn... That's never been an issue before, but I did have my battery cover off. I just rebooted, but I still have "No Service" nor connectivity. It shouldn't be a hardware issue as I've had the phone for several months (since it's release) and it has worked fine up until tonight. It has not been mistreated in anyway. The phone has also worked before with the battery cover off.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk0t:
Try flashing to stock Froyo. Also, make sure you aren't in airplane mode, or that the radio isn't turned off when you do a *#*#4636#*#*.

IIRC, there was a thread over on MyDroidWorld.com (here too, I think) where another user had this issue. I don't remember the resolution though.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JWhetstone02:
Well for this phone, the antennas are built in to that back cover. So with the cover on, and the points making contact you will have better service with it on than without it. Make sure mobile network is enabled. Settings>Wireless & Networks>Mobile Network

I had to find out the hard way after losing 4 hours of sleep one night lol
