Unfortunately HTC is being its usual ahole self and not releasing kernel source for awhile after the ota (its been more than a month)

2.3.3 kernels work mostly...but break usb mounting...auto mount from the market can get around this...but I won't package in kernels that have issues like that

But if u don't mind it, then dres's kernels should be fine
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
i added accurate battery mod and remove clock options in downloads in the op (work with either rom)

ill work on the mms issue..i *think* its not so much the sense 3 mms.apk but that i edit some files to increase mms sizes (from default) and that may be whats causing issues, whereas gosms for example uses our stock default limits (which is why it may be working)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zax10:
Awesome work.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bracketslash:
Could I fix it myself?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
you would have to decompile the framework-res.apk and its in the xml folder iirc
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bracketslash:
How would I edit the autotext.xml file? It's encoded in an unreadable format.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
you need to decompile it with apktool or apkmanager (there are extensive threads on xda how to do so)

you can sometimes hex edit xml files, but its a lot more difficult and frankly not worth the effort vs apktool
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] pol45:
Any screenshots on evolved ?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
I could put some up...buy basically it looks like the pics of the sense 3 patch
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] draco259:
I came right to this rom without trying anything else for that same reason.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
thanks for the support :)

but there are many other good options out there for this phone that you may want to look into to see what you enjoy most

skyraider zeus is another hybrid rom, and ihtfp is a genius (granted its still 2.3.3 but hes updating it soon i gather)

bamf forever (on rootz) is a great sense 3 option and adrynalyne does fantastic stuff with it

many people like new2root's rom ports (i have never tried any so i cant vouch for them personally) so theres that

and for aosp cm7, miui, omgb/fgb, and our TSM poolparty you cant go wrong with either
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
The great thing with skyraider being on 2.3.3, is that you can use any kernel without it breaking USB mount, cuz all the kernels are based on the 2.3.3 source.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
yup, thats a real bonus

i was debating originally whether or not to keep this series of roms on 2.3.3 til source came out...but at the time i didnt envision it would be this long of a wait :(

ultimately i moved to the latest ota as (at least with gingerbangsense) the goal is to provide an optimized stock + rom based on the latest ota (well my definition of stock + anyway lol)

i do miss using times_infinity's tsm kernels...but at least stock, this phone does well in the performance/battery life department
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
I completely agree. I prefer the ROM to come with stock kernel and the option to use another kernel if wanted. I prefer the stock kernel personally. Others don't.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
Lol I usually don't oc at all. I keep it at stock settings. Like on DINC2HD, I have my top speed at 1024 MHz. No higher, so I'd rather have a stock kernel myself so I wouldn't even have to worry about a controller to adjust settings with lol

Skyraider was nice...stable...tried virtuous unity....also nice and stable with the 3.0 bells and whistles....newts don't run well on my phone ..random reboots too much that gets left while he jumps to next big thing.

Running gingerbang is my favorite...smooth great battery life, loving the evolved tweaks and quick dev responses without the arrogance that a few other devs have...

And I like the stock kernel included....all that would be better is.working mms lol...just kidding...I know nit is working on it...

i think i have mms fixed (well it always worked on my phone so im not 100%) will upload the fix tomorrow morning
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bracketslash:
lol -> LOL doesn't show up in autotext.xml...actually, very few words do. autotext.xml isn't the default dictionary. That's what I need to edit.

Stuck in loop after downloading gingerbangevolved... please help... how do I get out of this? Can only get to hboot but it doesn't do really anything... just restarts and boot loops again and again and... you get it... Please help!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
Cant boot into recoverybfrom hboot? Worst case run one of the available ruu s we have out
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] the fascinator:
Umm sorry explain ruu further please. Not sure what to do or what that means.

---------- Post added at 05:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:13 AM ----------

OK serious trouble here... Been Googling for a while and nothing of use... need help... just bootlooping at the beginning and not sure why... no phone... Please help... All I did was wipe cache, then dalvik, then flashed better_slate theme, and then mail_patch, and then I put in my bootanimation... not necessarily in that order... BTW first thing I did was flash gingerevolved... hope that helps and hope someone can help my ass fast! I need my phone tomorrow so please help. Thanks for all you do. FYI: When I hit the power button I see the custom PNG img that I placed there, followed by the custom bootanimation which keeps reloading and reloading. I think that the fastboot may have something to do with it but I can't change it cause I can't get to it now...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zax10:
So you can not open recovery at all?

If not then download one of the available ruus..place the file on root of sdcard. (Just drag and drop on to sdcard). Then restart phone into hboot. The file should automatically be found. Once found it will ask you yes or no. Choose yes and follow on screen instructions.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
put an RUU on your sdcard and boot into hboot with volume down and power and run it (make sure its one with insecure boot) or hook up your phone to your computer and run the same RUU in windows

(if you can't get into cwr that is)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ericsignals:
Maybe the boot animation on the sd card is the culprit? Maybe it keeps seeing it and trying to run it..... Just a shot in the dark since I've read about changing boot animations but never taken the plunge myself ...

added mms patch fix (hopefully works)...must wipe mms.apk data with titanium backup or in manage applications...may have to go into mms settings and try different default sizes (all work for me, but i never had an issue previously either)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ericsignals:
If anyone can post a link or use apn backup to the stock dinc2 apn I would appreciate it...

.while using virtuous unity I had to change it and lost my backup original.

mms still not working for me and want to try and see if this is the cause.....any help would be greatly appreciated.

sent from my Gingerbang Evolved Dinc2
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] the fascinator:
Ok this is sounding promising. Please does anyone have a link to the "right" RUU to use? I know I could find it (probably) on here by searching but I don't want to pick the wrong one and screw it up worse. From what you said I need the insecure boot one... Thanks seriously for all your help! Please hurry though, still no phone...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1269935 should be good
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] the fascinator:
Every time I try to put the file on the root of my sd card it says the card is write protected and to "remove" the protection... Any idea how to do this? I'm almost there and then this happens...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
if that doesnt work, run the ruu file in windows with your phone attached by usb cord
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] the fascinator:
OK I finally got it to work. Had to buy a new cardloader. Now, so I don't screw this up again... Is it ok to use my custom bootanimation, boot img, and down animation with this rom? Also is there a new version of the "Better Slate" theme or can I use the same old one I had on 2.3.3? Thanks again for all your guys help!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ericsignals:
mms still not working after patch fix for me at least...

I will play around this weekend...probably try ruu posted above and start from scratch...can't find original apn from before I flashed virtuous...hoping ruu reverts everything back...I've run out of ideas...

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
whatever the latest better slate is from themes section still works with newest updates to these roms
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
yeah, i really dont know what to tell ya...i mean i can send mms to myself and my wife and receive back... :(
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ericsignals:
I've rooted and ran different roms...only othe changes was the apn thing and updating radio to 722 or whatever..

don't want to waste any of your time if it ends up just being my phone hates me.

....especially with the 3.5 you're working on....would like to try one that doesn't have random reboots like the other one out there...thanks for the help and your hard work

Edit: thinking I will reformat my SD card and see if that's the mms issue before nuking my phone

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cbaird7:
Neither mail patch fixes mail for me. I'm not sure if I missed a step. Just flashed and neither work

EDIT: manage applications would not allow me to clear data so I assumed there wasn't any to clear. After wiping the mail data in titanium it works.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] faehsemc:
I've already reformated my SD card. It was an accident and installed fresh thing of the ROM... Didn't do anything.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zax10:
Have to say this is the longest I have stayed on a rom. Have gotten use to just using GoSMS for my messaging. Battery life is awesome. I am at 11 hours and at 71% with moderate use.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ericsignals:
Installed RUU...ran the older version,installed 3.0 patch.. mms worked... Evolved just doesn't want to cooperate with my phone.... oh well... I'll just put Go SMS and use it for MMS for the few MMS I get/send. Not a perfect solution but everything else is smooth and looks nicer than anything else out there.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] the fascinator:
Anyone else have this message under their quick settings pull down menu: "No package was found that provides the Factory Test action." It says this on like 3 or four of my menu options. Just wanted to make sure that was right?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tmlhodge:
My phone flipped out on evolved, just reflashed 2.5 the sense 3 patch. Just a heads up. The logcat was an empty txt file.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
hmm thats a new one...which rom/version are you running? what was ur setup prior to that? did you wipe data before flashing? can you screenshot it?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] the fascinator:
I'm running the new evolved. Before I was running the 2.3.3 ROM u made like this. Not the Vanilla version. And I was using the better slate older version. I did do a factory rest since I couldn't get the phone to turn back on. I think it may have something to do with the theme. I'm also getting this when I turn up or down my volume: "on%." Not sure what that's about but I don't wanna lose the theme. On the other hand, I don't wanna keep running this and find more is wrong and break something. What should I do? I did try to screenshot it but it didn't work.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
Even wiping data and reflashing the rom it still does that?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bcmarauder:
Is there a volume key wake mod for this ROM?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cvo515:
i believe they were working on it. it's not available yet.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
Sorry never got to it...ill make it tomorrow afternoon when I get off work
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
this should work: http://www.multiupload.com/YATZAUP5U3

added a patch for sense 2.1 mms for those who are having issues with mms on evolved 1.0...id advise wiping data for mms in tibu or something after flashing
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Francko:
Not working for me either

I’ve tried 5 scenarios in an attempt to get the mms downloads working. I wiped mms data & cache each time:

1) Gingerbangevolved 1.0 + MMS and mail patch = doesn't work

2) Gingerbangevolved 1.0 + sense 2.1 mms patch = doesn't work

3) Gingerbangsense 2.5 = doesn't work

4) Gingerbangsense 2.5 + sense 2.1 mms patch = doesn't work

5) Gingerbangsense 2.0.1 + Sense3 patch 2.1 = mms downloads just fine.

Gingerbangsense 2.0.1 is the only build I can get to work. I hope this information is helpful in pinpointing the issue.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
idk, to me this is very bizarre, as there is literally nothing mms related i touched between 2.0.1 and 2.5...heh
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Droid0351:
Is there a inverted pull down mod for this rom. I would like to have black background with white text.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
I diffed my roms against each other and can't see what is causing the issues with mms on the newer ones...I may just rebuild from 2.0.1 and see what happens
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Francko:
Keep me posted. I'll stay with 2.0.1 in the meantime. It's still a really solid ROM.. good work.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ben805:
the mms is working just fine on both my phone and my wife's phone on all gingerbang version including the newest evolved, we just had to enable the 3G otherwise mms won't download or send with wifi alone. so I'd say the problem is your phone and not the rom. wipe your data/cache/dalvik, format system, and try it again, if it still doesn't work maybe try a different radio.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] faehsemc:
I've tried different radios, wiped a bunch and even tried redownloading from my pc and my phone and then installing the ROM. I've tried with and without WiFi.. just doesn't work. I've downloaded the original 2.1 and put the 3.0 patch and using the evolved but it still doesn't work. Also tried any patches... So my phone being the only issue seems funny. I've also tried different APN's.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
mms seems to work for some on 2.5 and 1.0 respectively and not for others...as to why? i really dont have a good grasp of it (it works for me)

probably in the next week ill just start back with 2.0.1 and and readd what i did in 2.5 and see

i may scrap evolved and just go back to the patch, as (at the time) i was bored and figured id share my own setup...but it probably doesnt need to be maintained as a separate rom anyway
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] faehsemc:
Either way, they're great ROMs
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] CannibalAngel:
Just installed:

GingerBangEvolved 1.0 *10.24.11 (sense 2.1/3.0 hybrid)

Accurate Battery Mod for GingerBangSense 2.5/Evolved 1.0 *10.26.11

Remove Transparency from status bar pulldown: http://www.multiupload.com/C6XX36DBE3 *9.30.11

So far it is running good. I am still re-installing all of my apps and re-doing all of my settings but so far I love it! I will report back once I get it fully up and running.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] CannibalAngel:
Got all my apps installed and all of my settings re done. I am having a few issues so far.

1st off, it is advertised that the CPU speed should be 1.3GHz. I am only getting 1GHz according to SetCPU.

2nd, the text message ringtone will not change. It says it is in the settings but it will only play the standard tone.

3rd, the quick launch to the messages from the lock screen does not work. All of the other quick launches work. Also, is there a way to change the quick launch from HTCs mail app to the GMail app?

These issues aside this is a very good ROM. If I can get these fixed this will be my new favorite.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
1. are you using evolved or gingerbang sense (with sense 3 patch)

2. as for cpu speed (from the op)

Q: What clock speed does the kernel boot with?

A: As of version 1.5 (vanilla patches dont contain kernels) the phone will boot at stock speed and you must use an app like setcpu to overclock up to 1305 mhz

A:

as of 2.0 there is currently no custom kernel included

until some things get worked out

so thats why its stock speed

3. if you are having issues with messagin from lockscreen, go into personalization ->lockscreen and reset messaging as one of the quicklaunches..should fix it
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] CannibalAngel:
Thanks for the reply!

1. I am using evolved.

2. Is there any way to get an OCed kernel or am I going to have to live with 1GHz for now? My phone seems a little slugish but I am attributing that to the CPU speed.

3. That worked! Thanks!

Thanks for the help!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
dres fixed usb mounting in his kernel as of #20..but for w/e reason hes only including it in newtoroot's one rom :confused:

anyway times_infinity who makes our kernels is working on kernels now for 2.3.4 based off the git commits dres made for usb storage fix

when it ll be out? idk
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
If you go to themikmik's site, you can download it. It's in the Incredible 23D section. :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] CannibalAngel:
Thanks! Sounds like I will have to live with the slower speed for a while.

Any idea on the text ringtone issue?

Use titanium backup
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] CannibalAngel:
Tried that. I can't find it in there either. Maybe I am just an idiot/blind LOL.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
does a 3rd party messaging program work for mms, like go sms?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] CannibalAngel:
Go SMS works just fine. I would rather use the default messageing app though.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
i completely understand...just wanted to make sure you were having the same issues that others were (stock mms not working but 3rd party working)

im *pretty* sure i know what the issue is and will get back to work on this on monday (going out of town tomorrow through sunday)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] CannibalAngel:
No worries. And no rush. I can use Go SMS for now. I don't get that many MMS messages anyway. I also think my text ringtone is working now. I am going to do some more testing with that, though, and I'll let you know.

Again, thanks for all of your help!

Hey, I'm new to rooting, I just rooted last night. This is my first custome ROM.

All went well installing this ROM.One question I have though, the arrow button (To the right of the phone button) doesn't do anything. What is this supposed to do? Also, pressing the menu button and selecting Personalize doesn't do anything. I have to go through setting to get to the personalize screen.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
the arrow next to the phone button has to be set manually with the launch key apk in your app drawer...you can set it to any app or activity you want
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] valorian13:
Ah, thanks! I was wondering what the Launch Key apk was for. I'm going to like this feature.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] valorian13:
Is it possible to change the boot animation on this ROM? Not too crazy about the one on there now. I have one I'd like to use if it's possible.

It is...I'm afk so u can't look at the file to see where I set it to

I'd imagine I made it data/local or system/media

It was in data/local. Astro wasn't displaying it. Found it when I used ES explorer.
