Went to flash the 9-30 nightly and it borked my phone.

In recovery it said the update failed, same sort of message as when the ROM download is incomplete.

Reboot stuck on the HTC screen.

Got it into recovery and re-flashed the 9-23 nightly, but it came up with no gapps and no network available. Restored a two week old backup, which did boot fine, but again network not available.

I'm now on my 9-23 with a reflash of gapps. WiFi works. Tried rebooting, airplane mode, toggling radio on/off, even flashed a newer radio version (bumped 622 to 722).

Nothing fixes the phone.

Looked at My Verizon and it shows everything happy.

Grrrr.

I played with updating my old D1 to the 9-30 nightly and it borked that phone, too.

Ok, got my D1 into recovery and flashed this morning's backup. I am very sorry I didn't make one for the Dinc2. Still no network available.

Hmmm the D1 isn't hooking into Google. Damn.

*edit * hooked up with Google, just took a while.

DInc2 phone network is still not working. I might have to factory reset. Not sure what else to try.

I tried setting access point names to "default", but no joy.

I've been looking all over for other users who have trouble with the latest nightly, but I can't find any mention of it anywhere. Can anyone provide a link to some further information?

-CM7 on DInc2
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] 8on3s:
I will give it a go once it is done downloading and let you know. Should be 15 min.

*Edit*

Everything is sweet on this end, full wipe and install camera is flawless, wifi connected, no issues with cellular. Maybe it was just a bad dl? it happens now and again.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phonetool:
I thought maybe it was a bad download. I pulled it from the cyanogenmod site. For the D1 I pulled it from goo.

I didn't think I could have two bad downloads from two separate sources.

Well, whatever happened to me I'm still stuck with a networkless phone.

-CM7 on DInc2
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] 8on3s:
That's the strange part, two separate sources and radio issues. Have you tried to replace your apn settings and reflash a different radio?

Edit- I see you tried a new radio.

How about a non cm7 backup? Maybe changing the whole rom base will help?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phonetool:
Hmmm, I wonder if I messed up the radio antenna case connection when I pulled the battery out!

Jeez I'm dumb sometimes.

Yah, it's fixed now. Thanks for the reply.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] 8on3s:
Lol it happens, no problem.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phonetool:
Back on topic... I tried downloading from goo for the Dinc2 instead of cm and the download completed properly but the same issue came up during installation.

Looking through the CM nightlies log, for some reason I keep seeing CM9 appear next to the vivow(Inc2) name. However I can never find any mention of it on the official site. Am I seeing these things right?

I honestly wouldn't mind CM9, even with CM10 being around...Can't beat the stability of a official release. :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Linch89:

I use the cm review page to see what changes might be included in the nightly.

http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/q/status:merged+branch:gingerbread,n,z

This link has the correct search terms in place.

I haven't been happy with any other changelog and finally figured this out.

-CM7 on DInc2

---------- Post added at 09:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 AM ----------

Updates seem to get "merged" almost on a daily basis to gingerbread in general, but you have to read through to judge if anything affects the vivow directly.

Not many do, which is why we are getting builds nearly every Sunday.

This is my assumption, anyway.

I just figured out how to tweak the BBQLog site url so it works for CM7 vivow listings.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phonetool:
Strange, the app description says it pulls data from the old cm changelog page, but the owner of that site quit months ago. He does point people to the BBQLog site, though. Until today I had a miserable time with that site.

Interesting to see an app version of the changelog page, but sad to see that nobody has done well with usability.

Nightly 10-7 is up.

Unfortunately I am having the same trouble as before. CWM aborts the install and reports an issue with the file.

I grabbed an app for checking the md5 sum from the market and tested the download before I started - result was good.

I reflashed recovery from ROM Manager and tried again, but no joy.

The SD card is working fine. I can backup and restore from it no problem.

I'm just not sure what to try next. I could flash a different recovery, I suppose. :-\

Seems a factory reset is the only way I can install 9-30 or 10-7. So now I have some fun work to do to get my phone back.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phonetool:
Grrr.

Can't flash either of the last two nightlies. Even if I full wipe it errors out like the file is bad.

Maybe my SD card is unhealthy.

-CM7 on DInc2
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phonetool:
I finally found a way to flash the nightlies!

Instead of selecting the ROM file, I copied it to the root of the SD card and renamed it update.zip. CWM then managed the install perfectly.

I did a "dirty" flash over the 10-14 nightly, then flashed aeroevan's 10.5 kernel, then fixed permissions, then ran the v6 supercharger script. Each step was separated by a full successful reboot.

I'm not sure what tiny fixes have found their way to my phone, but I have to say that cyanogenmod nightlies have always been a great choice.

For me, the allure of unofficial CM9 and CM10 builds do not out-shine the solidity of fully functional CM7.

-CM7 on DInc2
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Rushead:
Yeah, it's nice having full functionality.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] brymaster5000:
I remember the pictures from the camera coming out a little fussier than the stock based ROM's like bonestock and skyraider. How is it now? I haven't run CM7 since September.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phonetool:
I dumped the stock OS as soon as I got the phone, so I can't make any comparison. I've never been disappointed by the camera or photos, though. I mean, it's a phone, right? I'm not going to be selling pics off it to Life Magazine.

Aosp is definitely grainier than sense. But as tool said, it's just a phone.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] brymaster5000:

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jbarcus81:
I never understood why there were such a difference in quality...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phonetool:
Well, HTC is the developer of both the phone and the Sense UI, so I guess that they have a leg up on anyone else wrt interfacing the hardware.

-CM7 on DInc2
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] TheAtheistReverend:
On page three of this thread I did two different posts comparing several different roms and cameras. I don't think there was much that Sense had over MIUI or CM. You be the judge, there's a set of indoor/lowlight and a set of outdoor/sunlight. Two different posts...

Oh, and yah, cm7 is a sweet, solid, full-function ROM for the dinc2.

No problems whatsoever.

I'm running aeroevan's v10.5 kernel and overclocked to 1.4 with incredicontrol. Also running the V6 Supercharger script.

-CM7 on DInc2
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] d08speed3:
I use to be on 10.5 kernel but pressing the speaker button while in call lagged! I've been on aeroevan 0.8cfs. Its smoother than 10.5 IMO. CM7 is the best tho like you said.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phonetool:
I haven't had a problem with the speaker phone. None that I've noticed, anyway.

I started with aeroevan's cm9 kernels. Never tried any of his cm7 ones. I should go looking for them and see if anything is better for me.

Let me know what you need (says the man in the overcoat standing in the shadows...) ;)

---------- Post added at 03:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:21 PM ----------

Don't remember where I read it, but most feel that bfs is the preferred kernel. An article described one as better at multi tasking (cfs, I think). I've used both with no noticeable difference.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] revile:
I ran into the same dilemna. Wasn't sure which to run. However, I then saw mmontuori's MROM (cm 7.2) and it has been running like a dream. He still updates and uses the latest source from CM's repository. It has a lot of features that didn't make it into the official 7.2 build. For example, swiping away the last notification will automatically close the shade.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=34674153
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] NeverSeparate:
Agreed. MROM runs great. The latest version has .8bfs built in so you don't need to flash a separate kernel. Plus the dev is open to suggestions for things to include. He included the kernel and the new adw because of user request and is looking into incorporating another thing or two that people have suggested I believe.

Sent from my Incredible 2
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] d08speed3:
The MAIN difference I noticed was that when I press speaker button while in call its instant on with 0.8cfs. With BFS it has a lag. Small dilemma but I want perfection! I just feel that with CFS I get slightly battery life.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] revile:
Yes but I don't think it made it to the stable release of 7.2. So unless he was running a nightly or a relatively new custom build, that functionality would not have been present.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bik2101:
hmm.. so i got it installed but how do i get it to show up in the status bar?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] k_nivesout:
Get what to show up in the status bar?

And BTW, I'd recommend flashing the rom manually to minimize any possible issues. When you do it with rom manager, it doesn't format the /system partition (which you want to do especially coming from a sense rom). You'd ideally do that along with wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache. I suppose rom manager could be handy for downloading roms though.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bik2101:
Hmm forget it.. there was a bit of miscommunication I think. I quoted the info about the circle battery status bar and asked about how to install that and I think you were thinking I was asking about how to install the nightlys which I already know how to do.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Bobby Buggs:
bik or anyone here, if Im in a Cm7 build already how much wiping do I need to do for these nightlys
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dg4prez:
i only wipe the dalvik cache.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bik2101:
I usually wipe both cache and dalviche
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] voxigenboy:
hey, ive found some of those battery .zip files havent worked on other ROMs that they were meant for so I didnt bother with this one.

instead, if you go to:

settings/cyanogenmod settings/interface/status bar tweaks

check off "battery percentage".

it wont have a circle arounf it, but will at least display a percentage now
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] voxigenboy:
I wipe everything entirely before I install a ROM. already have most things backed up to the sd card anyway(including .apk's) I figure by doing this method itll ensure a 100% clean install.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dobosininja:
Has anyone outside of the US got CM7 working without issues? I just spent 3 hours messing with nightly build 10 trying to get data working. I had the same exact settings as the stock rom but no data.

I am guessing this rom is being built as a cdma rom not global :(
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] voxigenboy:
I got it to work in Mexico using a Telefonica SIM(same company that handles Spain). Although, that particular card doesnt have data on it though... when I go back down there I can see if a friend will let me test out their SIM. although im not sure when I will go back yet(you know how Mexico is)... ;(
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dobosininja:
Phone and sms is not the issue, the problem I have is data not connecting at all.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] khanam:
Any progress on the in call volume front? I tried valiantly to keep using it since I liked everything else about cm7. Am on sense for the time being. I did try the patch posted a few pages back to no avail. Interestingly, the same issue afflicts the bolt's cm7 build too. Wonder if they are somehow related. Some driver change?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] the_tack:
I read you have to put in the APN for the network for GSM data to work. Problem is, I don't know where to get the APN nor do I know how to input it!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dobosininja:
Most apn's can be found by googling your carrier and apn. To enter in an APN you go to settings, wireless and network, then to networks then there should be a apn sections. Once there you hit menu then add the apn information you found.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nocode99:
So typically, I would always wipe all the data, cache, dalvik, etc and install the zip, but with cyanogenmod, I can just install the zip from CWM without wiping and it will update the ROM keeping all my settings (with of course doing a nandroid backup)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
does any one else camera SUCK?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] LowFire82:
I had data working for the few minutes that CM7 held the APN I put in, but then dropped it and never got it back, so I gave up.

I reported a few posts back of what exactly I got, hoping someone could help out, would really like to use this ROM
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mturco:
I had serious camera issues a few builds back but it seems to be much better now, although still not as smooth as it was with Sense.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] voxigenboy:
the camera on build 10 takes good pics, although it seems like there's a bit more lag while taking a shot then with sense.

other then that, i do not like how 'gallery' includes .mp3 image files on the list. i liked how in sense it just showed your actual camera shots/image downloads and that was it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] melgibson666:
Has anyone recorded video on the nightlies? The quality seems way worse than the stock ROM. I mean its really blurry. Compared to sense which was crystal clear recordings.

Wipe the first time you install CM7. After that to update you only need to wipe the cache. I upgrade daily and just run a nandroid (just in case) and wipe cache only.
