Do I have to completely wipe everytime I install a new nghtly
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] REDSCARFACE1:
Also can someone help change the camera to sense 3 version if so what's the link to do apk to install or flasg
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dg4prez:
No. Dalvik and cache is all you should need.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dg4prez:
can't be done. sense apps require the entire sense framework.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] REDSCARFACE1:
Thanks for the information
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] SR3TLAW:
Just got done trying all of sense roms. I keep forgetting what I'm missing out on. Does this mean I shoulda gone with a nexus one from the get go? Haha
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
Hopefully we get a Verizon Nexus one of these days.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] franklin270h:
I hope so too, but considering they're such a bag of dicks about something as harmless as HTC hub being on our phones because it may interfere with the vcast app store etc, I don't see them letting it happen in all its stripped down, non bloated glory.

And I'd love to see a study on how many people *with smartphones* actually buy anything from Verizon in the form of apps, ringtones, using VZW navigation, etc.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ben805:
I'm sure there are some people out there buying those VZW apps and ringtones or subscribed to the ripped VZW navigator, otherwise they would not have keep loading those ****ware onto new phones. Verizon is the long lost brother of Microsoft, if you haven't noticed. :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
The majority of smartphone users are clueless. Most don't even know you can install 3rd party apps. There's a girl at my work who has a P.O.S. MetroPCS android phone. I think its a LG, but she didn't even think it was an android device, because it didn't have "Droid" in the name. To top it off, she even has a Droid X that's not activated because she had to cut off her Verizon service.

But enough off topic rambling, I've been running nightly #48 with no major issues. The only thing I noticed is the compass going wrong way north and south.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ben805:
If you are running the integrated kernel, is the volume for incall and speakerphone much improved? the compass thing is not unique to this rom, it is a persistent bug infected every single one of the custom roms out there for our Dinc2, it pretty much render the Google GPS useless while you drive.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
Yes, I'm running the "stock" kernal for now. The call volume is still a little low, even on speaker. For me, the volume in earpiece isn't too bad. I can hear it okay unless I'm in a place with a lot of background noise. The speakerphone doesn't seem to have improved. I would guess it's about 2/3 what it should be.

On a side note I usually use LauncherPro, but this time around I'm using ADW launcher that comes preloaded. It's kind of growing on me. With the settings adjusted right, you can flick through screens rather quick. Plus I noticed today that you can "lock" the screen, so your icons and widgets can't be moved or deleted.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
I just tried using headphones with nightly #48. I used a headset with no mic. The headset is recognized as standard headphones, but when making a call the in-phone mic still doesn't work. You either have to use the speakerphone, or unplug the headphones to make a call. So apparently the notification icon is fixed, but not the microphone itself.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Skyboxer1968:
I tried loading up launcher pro but it kept crashing. I tried a few things like keeping homescreen in memory, then not keeping it in memory, but then gave up.

I can't say it's a problem with #48 specifically since its been quite a few builds since I used lp on cm.

ADW is fine for me though. I did wish it looked as nice as some of the MIUI themes though.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] SR3TLAW:
I don't know what you guys are talking about referring the compass and google nav not working. Your scaring me.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
I ran launcherpro with no major issues. I used the v6 supercharger script. It helps with killing apps when memory is low, and it will keep your launcher in memory. If you try it, make sure you turn lock home in memory OFF in cyanogenmod settings, or it won't work properly. You need an app to run it like script manager from the market.

I don't have this problem at all. Google maps and navigation work just fine for me on nightly 48
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ben805:
When you use google navigator, the blue arrow is going north bound and the map being pull down instead of the other way around?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Amazingbman:
Navigation still backwards for me. #48
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mudsloth:
Yep, compass still an issue in #50. The other issues aren't a problem for me, but it's really hard to toy around with Star Chart with the compass backwards. :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] MJL99:
If im moving, which is the only time im using nav, everything works correctly for me.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sylent101:
Any reason why flash doesn't work all the time? I get black screens on some videos.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] SR3TLAW:
...

What changes have you guys noticed on nightly 50 right off the bat? Compass issue should be fixed soon right? That really sucks. Also quick question. When a new nightly comes I can just flash rite over the previous one without anything going wrong?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] AZKJS:
Haven't flashed the latest yet, but I just wipe the Cache partition, and the Dalvik-Cache.

Most of the time that is good enough so I don't have to reinstall all my apps.

Now if I have any problems I do a full wipe and try again.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Skyboxer1968:
I didn't know about the script. Fixed homescreen redraws for me. Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
Glad I could help. I used it on my Eris. I run it with balanced #3, and then I run bulletproof launcher.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] MJL99:
Some videos with flash dont work well with the stock browser. I use opera browser when i come across that issue.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] beenz:
Same here. Haven't had to wipe data yet. :knocksonwood:

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Grouper:
I'm also experiencing two bugs that others have listed that are extremely annoying.

1. Microphone for voice recognition works intermittently (mostly doesn't work at all)

2. Compass is reversed

Some of you are saying that navigation works fine and it will if you are moving because it can ignore the compass if GPS is working. When you stop and the compass says your going the other way... that's a problem, it's exactly 180* off.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] SR3TLAW:
Compass super weird, no explanation gas my tech my tech mind going nuts. Also I've been trying to get some info on tiamat, kernel profiles with setCPU. Should I run profiles at will? I also hear something about cottage being different? Need some help

What? :confused:
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cambunch:
Try an APK of 10.2, 10.3 has issues with CM7.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
Mine isnt off at all
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] melgibson666:
There's a fix for any app using Flash, you have to use an app that can change permissions like ROOT explorer. Open up root explorer go to data/data/ "whatever browser you are using" then there will be a file that says app_plugins, after that it'll say com.adobe.flashplayer, then open .macromedia, flash player, and you'll want to hold click the config.data file and uncheck all permissions. And then BLAMO flash works again. I run a JTV player that uses embedded flash videos, and I had to do the same with that program.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
I'm going to try this out. I haven't heard of this fix before, but I'm always willing to test something new. It's also easy to put it back the way it was, so it doesn't hurt to give it a shot.

Update: This seems to work. I went to the joystiq website and played a video game trailer. The video played on the website, but it's hard to see the whole picture unless you line the screen up just right. I'm not sure, but shouldn't a new window open when you play a video clip, or should it play right on that page?

Update 2: Nevermind that question, I long pressed the video while playing, and it gave me the option to play it full screen.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Grouper:
I guess I was wrong about it being 180*, it's actually upside down.

Go outside and open Google Maps, let the GPS get a fix. Now hold the phone in front of you and turn. It turns the opposite direction that you are turning, eh? This was also an issue with some of the older stock HTC firmwares but seems to be fixed in the latest (2.3.3). Maybe it's just a driver issue and we can get new drivers or firmware out of the latest stock ROM?

Another unbearable bug that Android has in general is the AVRCP controls randomly choose a different audio player to work with. I think this is the same for the lock-screen and headset audio controls. You can stop one music player and it will randomly resume the stock player instead of the one that you paused. Sometimes you will get two playing at the same time.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sylent101:
Good man.. it worked perfectly, how did you come across this solution?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] kyrumo71:
To get Flash 10.3 working on the stock browser you need to do two things:

1) force stop the browser process 2) Remove all permissions for /data/data/com.android.browser/app_plugins/com.adobe.flashplayer/.macromedia/Flash_Player/config.data

*Fix also works for Dolphin. Just change com.android.browser to mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser

Changing the permissions restricts the flash plugin or the stock browser or the webkit or I dunno what from reading config.data. This file is screwing with video playback of anything over 240p.

What's weird is that the config.data generated for 10.2 and 10.3 appears to be identical, except for the ProductVer string. Since the file contains settings for h264 high, baseline and main profiles, there's probably some change in 10.3 to the way it uses this information.

Either way, this is a bandaid for those that don't wish to use Opera until the heart of the issue is found/addressed.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] scuba76:
Can't beat opera!

I'm running Nightly #52, I don't get any signal, it says No Service, but if I use a different rom it works, but when I restore my nandroid those roms cease to work too, is there a way to get just my contacts and games/apps restored?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] TheKiD075:
Titanium Backup for the apps, Google for your contacts. I would suggest a full and complete wipe. Start fresh, see what happen before you start throwing apps back on. Then go slow, only a few apps at a time.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] pinakaeus:
What do you mean by Titanium Backup for the apps, can it read the Nandroid backups?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Skyboxer1968:
As far as I know you can't pull apps from the nandroid backup, it's all or nothing. Titanium wouldn't be that useful otherwise.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nimdae:
Mp3 seems to be the most supported format by CM/Android, which is strange because it is not an open format. Ogg Vorbis, on the other hand, seems very poorly supported despite there being open libraries, source code, and lots of documentation.

So my issue: Ogg Vorbis track timing seems off. It's more noticeable with very long streams/files. Since there is no wma support in CM, I have to transcode a podcast I listen to to another format, and I chose ogg because of a very easy to use tool to mass transcode several files with a single command.

What's happening is the progress slider progresses faster than the track is running. This isn't just a UI issue, though. It will play to the end of the track counting time beyond the displayed end of track, but if you pause and play, it will skip ahead whatever the discrepancy gap is, or if the display believes it reached end of track, even if there's several minutes remaining, it will go to the next track, or display some completely odd behavior with track skipping.

This is a problem for things like podcasts and audio books where tracks can be very long (10+ minutes, upwards to 30 minutes, and I'm sure it affects tracks that are even longer). This only started happening in more recent nightlies. I intend to do more testing before I file a bug. In the meantime, I was wondering if anyone else noticed this.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
I haven't. But I'm just listening to mp3. Sorry bro
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] TheKiD075:
You will have to restore your nandroid with no signal. Then use Titanium to back up your apps, then wipe everything cache, dalvic, all user data. Install the Rom you want, and see if you have signal. If you do, you can then use Titanium to quickly reinstall your apps, without having to download them from the market. As for your contacts, you should be syncing with Google.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nimdae:
I should note that this is not media player specific. It happens with all media players I've tried.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
I wish we had someone with the time and knowledge to make a custom cm7 Rom that resyncs with the nightlys like every 10 or so days. But has its own feel to it.

Basically what tazz did with his roms
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
It seems I was getting better battery life with miui anyone else?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
I been thinking the same thing. A cyanogen based rom would be nice. Maybe a couple of the bugs might get worked out as well. All in all the nightlies are pretty stable, I use them for my daily driver, but I'd love another AOSP rom or two.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
I think someone like true lefty could be the man...kid..for the job lol. Basically s we aren't flashing a new nightly every night lol. Let someone put there own stamp on a Rom with cm7 goodies and specific dinc2 customization :-)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mbh87:
If you are looking for something different try OMFGB if you havent already. Also TSM plans on bringing over PoolParty as well.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
Never checked out pool party, I came from the Eris. We had a bunch of CM roms, Gingertazz, GSB, Conap, and Punk.kaos roms. All were very good builds.

Edit: I still have GSB installed on my Eris, even though I haven't used it since I powered up my Inc2 :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Mystery252:
Does this have working data arrows yet? That's the only reason I had to bail on it, but I miss the speed and battery life of cm7.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
I'm on nightly #54, and no data arrows.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
Why is that a big deal? Just curious
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] franklin270h:
Agreed. It's not enough to be a deal breaker for me lol. The biggest things are once the audio issues are 100% resolved, and that weird battery use calculation deal, I'd consider the aosp roms pretty much done. Most of the big kinks are ironed out.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] DalekCaan:
Compass

For those of you that have the compass backwards, have you tried flashing the GB radio? The compass has always been right for me, but I realized today that it might be because I got the OTA, then I rooted. I am not sure this is correct, but I'm sure someone here can give some more info on this (I am sorry if this has been suggested before, I've been through this entire thread, and I can't seem to find anything about it).

Radios: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1134451

Thanks for all your help, xda!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
So, just out of curiosity... If you open google maps and hold your phone in front of you, then turn left or right with it, does the compass point turn in the same direction?

If it works properly, the compass point (red) should turn opposite direction. The blue triangle should turn the same as you.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] DalekCaan:
I plugged an address into google maps, then turned on navigation. Then, I walked around the block and every time I turned, the compass changed to be pointing the correct way, turning the correct way (it was close to sundown where I am, so I knew that the compass was correct).
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
LOL. I'm sitting here with mine. If I open Maps with GPS on, and I turn left, the blue arrow shows I turned right.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Mystery252:
I'm just one of those quirky people.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] DalekCaan:
And you have the GB radio? If so, I'm sorry. It was just a hunch. Thanks for the replies!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Skyboxer1968:
Yeah I don't think it's the radio. I can load up ginger sense and the compass works well, then load any aosp rom and its borked again. Almost makes me think they used the sense framework to fix the compass.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
There's nothing wrong with posting an idea. If no one did, we probably wouldn't have custom roms or root to begin with.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
Build #56 has a change specific for us (vivow). I flashed it, and the compass is still backwards and still no mic with headset. Does anyone know what the change applies to?

http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=vivow
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] franklin270h:
lights and sensors (proximity sensor, light sensor, etc) specific to our device. Could affect the compass but really don't know, must not if it's still backwards for ya.

*edit* the sensor driver for our devices gets updated in the upcoming nightly, might wanna check once nightly 57 hits.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
With the compass try declinating it.

Take and move the phone in a figure 8 motion parallel to the ground. Mine is as accurate as my military compass I use for my calls for fire and I declinate it out of habit every time.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Skyboxer1968:
What drives me nuts is only the google apps are affected by the compass bug. I have a separate compass app and gpsStatus and they are both ok.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
I just tested this and can confirm, I downloaded a compass app and it says I'm facing south. I opened Google maps and I'm facing north. I'm confused now. It seems that this is an issue with Google maps, but I thought it only happens on AOSP roms. The app I downloaded is from Catch. In the notes it mentions a bugfix for newer devices. Maybe this could help us if the devs tear into the APK.

Edit: in the settings it has an alternate sensor for newer devices.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
After further testing, I don't have the problem when I'm connected to WiFi.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mudsloth:
I have the problem with Star Chart. It's an app like Google Sky, but it's not a Google app.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Skyboxer1968:
So to summarize, there are 2 (at least) ways to get compass data. One works correctly. The other is broken in aosp and htc froyo, but fixed in HTC's gb.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] DalekCaan:
I'm not sure if this is a software or hardware issue, but the right edge of my screen is unresponsive. I can no longer type the letter p (to do that I had to autocorrect something lol). The entire right side will not register. I have not found any way to recalibrate as apparently capacitive screens do not need it. Does anybody else have this issue or does this sound like a hardware thing? Thanks.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JAS_21:
Sounds like a hardware problem. Try flashing a new rom to be sure. If all else fails, you will need to call Verizon for a replacement. Just a heads up, you will need to put your phone back to factory stock before you call. They will want to troubleshoot before sending a replacement.

I love the settings in CM7 but I'm going to have to go back to OMGB till i can figure out this thing.

I'm running the last nightly with TIAMAT, and my battery life is CRAP!

I don't know what happened even the older versions of Tiamat i.e. 1.0.4 are killing my battery. once my DInc2 hits 100% I unplug it, and in minutes I'm down to around 80%.

This rom has so much potential, it's a shame that the devs never bother to fix the low volume and compass backward bugs......
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jaypr9:
Hardly game stoppers for me. Low volume is fixed with Tiamat kernal.

I do wonder though how does the average person tell the devs about bugs if none of them check any of these posts and dont even consider the thread on cyanogenmod forums say they dont check it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nimdae:
The git server at kernel.org appears to be down. I can't really find any reference to this issue or a reason why, but I'm speculating that it has to do with the hacking of kernel.org. Some of the scripts which do the builds and management of source reference this repo and they are likely failing because of this. I know the repo script referenced in the wiki for building from source is not functional.

We may not see new builds until either the build systems are updated to us github or the kernel.org repo is brought back online.
