Ok what the deuce? This should not be happening. I'll look at a lil more later today guys. No promises.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] k_flan:
I think Verizon screwed something up, or google needs to update something.

This is why:

In recovery I factory reset, cleared cache, cleared dalvik, formatted boot, formatted system.

I went back to stock 2.2 (with PB31IMG Rom from RUU, it included radio and recovery). Left S-OFF of course.

Downloaded the official update from google, flashed in hboot.

Flashed CWM 5.0.2.0 in hboot.

Flashed an update.zip to root.

Formatted my sdcard.

I have 'myapps' in old market, but 'sprint' in new market. Can't think of a way to be more stock with root than this.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Yea thats true. I wonder if this is happening because everyone has used a Sprint based rom before? Maybe something not getting fully wiped somewhere. I don't know if thats it though because all of my own roms are Sprint based except one.

But then again I always wipe everything that can be wiped atleast 3 times. Bit over kill but then again I am a dev so I try to be flawless when building stuff others will use.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tmoney468:
Has anyone else had App problem with apps store on their SD card after installing this? It seems that any app I had installed on the SD beforehand ends up missing every time I reboot the phone. I've tried un-installing, re-installing then moving back to SD but the same problem occurs.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zoomy942:
So, never thought of this since I usually use stock roms, root them and remove the crapware...

I play Scrabble on my device all the time but it has those stupid ads. Does this ROM have the ability to block ads? Might seem like a noob question, but I usually only see custom roms blocking ads, not stock-ish ones.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BerkleyJ:
I'm gonna RUU back to stock 2.2 (S-OFF of course) and let the OTA update me and I'll report back on the market in a bit.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] crackers8199:
the oddities continue...i flashed this last night over .2, with a wipe of cache and dalvik. everything seemed to be working fine.

i've been using ADW rather than sense as my launcher. just now i upgraded from 07.28 to the new radio...flashed and booted fine. however, on boot, i'm now back in sense with the default background wallpaper...and sense is stuck on the "loading..." screen.

what happened? i thought flashing a radio didn't mess with software...?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
I ended up making a backup with 2.5.0.5 and then again with 3.0.0.7, so hopefully I'll be okay.

I've never used a Sprint-based ROM before, so I'll let you know what happens when I flash this one.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zoomy942:
rats.

Didn't block the ads in Scrabble.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Army_Spec_Ops:
anyone know if this contains the supposed Wireless-N upgrade? HERE
[Droid Incredible Android Development] crackers8199:
What all can I safely remove from this if I'm using a different launcher and not sense?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
Wow, that was surprisingly painless. Everything went smoothly, everything is fast.

I DO NOT have the Sprint market issue. Immediately after booting up, I went to manage applications and cleared the data for Market. I then installed the latest version (attached APK) and it shows up fine.

I DO have the issue with apps on my SD card not showing up, though.

Also, nothing happens when I dial the ##778# from here or the ##program# from here. It doesn't even dial anything, the numbers just disappear.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] k_flan:
Tried clearing data and using the app you attached. Still got a Sprint button. You have a Verizon button?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
I actually have no carrier button. I have the different app categories instead.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SimpTheChimp:
I might try this rom... But does it still have all the Verizon junk on it? (VZ Navigator, City ID, etc)

Although I suppose I could just delete those since I am rooted, right?

/Tom
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
Yes it does have the crapware, and yes you can remove it (not sure of the best way, though).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] k.electron:
"Build.prop Sprint inputs corrected"

what does that mean?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zoomy942:
Best way is to adb shell into the device and rm -r <app.apk>
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jeffgman:
The build.prop file from the ota actually had the device listed as having a 4.3 screen and has a bunch of Sprint settings. Those issues have been fixed in this rom. The screen size is fixed and everything that said Sprint has been changed to Verizon.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jeffgman:
I use Root Explorer and move the files to an app.disabled folder in case I go too crazy with removing files.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] crackers8199:
can someone help me out with this?

dear wildstang83 sir,

do you have any way let incredible trackball to wake up? for Froyo_VERIZON_WWE_3.26.605.1 ,add key 272 in qwerty.kl file,it works,but not work on this rom you uploaded.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
See here for a list of bloatware you can remove

---------- Post added at 10:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:11 AM ----------

So far the only issue I'm having with this ROM is that tapping on the weather in the Clock app does not open the Weather app, though I can open it from the app drawer. Does this happen to anyone else? My girlfriend has a non-rooted stock Incredible and hers works just fine.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Quantumrabbit:
Basically anything you don't use.

The list of actual stuff would be incredibly long.

I personally uninstall the widgets and the services for News, all the social media, friendstream, and a ton of other stuff.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zoomy942:
i remove everything almost.

Does this OTA use wireless N?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] crackers8199:
Mainly I was referring to stuff that might not be obvious (at least it isn't to me) ...

Stuff like...

HtcLocationService.apk

HtcMessageUploader.apk

HtcStreamPlayer.apk

SocialNetworkProvider.apk

I've gotten rid of the obvious ones, I'm trying to figure out if there's extra stuff I can remove since I'm not using sense as my launcher...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
Just going by the names, I would say to leave those alone. They seem like they'd be necessary for some things non-launcher related to work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] crackers8199:
Does the GPS nag removal not work on this? I flashed it but the crosshair icon is still there...

I did flash a modded battery icon from uot kitchen...would that affect it?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] adsbar:
Modified Mail.apk

Great to finally get GB and TV out in the same ROM. The biggest detractor for me with stock roms has been the Exchange Security Policy. While I agree that sensitive information needs to be password protected, there are better ways to do it than locking up the entire phone. Thankfully, Rostbiemrptson has been helping those of us who need the feature.

This will allow you to use a pattern unlock, or even no password with your corporate Exchange account. It is specific for this ROM. I cannot offer support, just thanks to Rostbiemrptson. I have been using it without problem.

This got rid of the crosshair for me, but the nag was still there. I was told to remove the file /data/data/com.android.settings/shared_prefs/HTC_CDMA_FEATURE.xml

I haven't tested it yet but apparently that stops the nag popup.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] crackers8199:
Is there a way to remove the crosshair without quick settings?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Give me about 10 minutes and I'll post a flashable zip to remove it, for people that don't want quick settings. I assumed every one wanted them. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Here's a flashable zip to remove the GPS recticle icon. The Satellite GPS icon will still activate, when in use. If you changed your SystemUI.apk from the stock one (UOT kitchen, etc.), this will remove those mods.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
You're awesome!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Thank you! Please verify that it works for you. I didn't test it, but I'm 99% sure I did it right. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] crackers8199:
I do, I was waiting til the cosmetic issues were ironed out. I thought it was still being worked on...

Anyway, you are indeed awesome. I went off searching and found the one you posted in another thread, that also seems to work... :) if I had just waited a few minutes...lol

Anyone have any luck getting this to connect to Bluetooth in car with phone book?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
Ever since flashing this, battery life seems about the same (maybe a little better?), but I'm not sure I trust my battery stats. Wifi, cell standby, and Android System were always the top two power suckers on 2.2, but now Display is always at the top. After 7 hours on battery, Display is at 34%, wifi at 15%, Adroid System is at 13%, Dialer is at 13% (I haven't even used it today!), and cell standby is at 11%. Tapping on Display tells me the "Time on" is about 25 minutes.

Any idea what's going on?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cmlusco:
I believe they changed the way percentages are calculated. They said this way was more accurate. At least im pretty sure i read that here on xda in another thread somewhere.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
Hm...I hope that's not true, or if it is then I'm going to have to question their definition of "accurate." 8 hours on battery now, with the display being responsible for 43%, wifi 12%, android system and dialer 11%, and cell standby at 9%. It says the display has been on for 46 minutes. This is with the Seidio 1750 mAh battery. I find it hard to believe that the AMOLED display, which used to be 5th or 6th on the list on 2.2, is now the most power-hungry part of my phone...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
It uses a lot of juice depending on the backlight level. I have mine at around 25% or lower, and it helps My battery life a lot. I have just the 1500MAh Evo battery too, and I can get 13+ hours on one charge.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
Yeah, I keep mine at 20% unless I'm in direct sunlight and need to be able to see it without using my hands for cover (like when using Navigation while driving). Sometimes I'll crank it up to 100% just to remind myself how bright it gets.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
So I compared my battery use with my girlfriend's and her display is at the top too. A big difference with her, though, is that after roughly the same amount of time and with comparable use, her phone had lost no more than a quarter of its battery. This is with the stock battery, whereas I'd lost half of my beefier battery. I'm thinking it might be the radio, since hers was updated via the OTA. I'll probably try flashing it, just because of that.

Having some camera issues as well.

I have my camera set to save pics to SD. When taking pictures - I'm getting reboots.

edit: Got it sorted. Camera was set to internal storage - changed it to SD and it works fine now. Odd that internal storage was making it lock up though.

Day 1: 12 hours to hit 50% with light-ish usage...I'd say that's pretty good. This is with the updated radio.

Day 2: First "real" day with the new radio. Nothing too serious; checking email, texting, a few searches. ~8.5 hours down to 66%, starting at 91%, so 25% used. I'm sure this would be worse with some extended browsing or gaming thrown in.

Stang,

Ran into a problem and ended up with my internal storage wiped and showing unavailable. Read that flashing an OTA might restore emmc use. Would this one help me out? Any other ways to restore the 8 gig internal?

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cmlusco:
Check your vold.fstab file in /etc, it should look like this.

# Mounts the first usable partition of the specified device
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc1
dev_mount emmc /mnt/emmc 3 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc2

Just a guess not a for sure fix.

EDIT: Or you may just need to format it fat32.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] omniatic:
Yeah, the file's correct. EMMC won't mount to anything so that I can format it. Just shows zeros in file explorer and unavailable in settings.

How about when you hook it up to a pc?

Stock OTA Zip to Rooted ZIP?

Hey WildStang (or anyone else that can answer this),

I know you're taking some time off, but if/when you happen back by, I wonder if you could point me to some resources.

I'm already reading the ADB Rooting howto thread, but I was wondering how one starts with an *OFFICIAL* ROM download (as in the one captured from the OTA) and converts that into a rooted ROM ready for flashing.

I know there is info out there on deodexing, and I can find that easy enough, but how do you strip the ROM down and insert the root/SuperUser.apk? I can't find that, but surely it can't be as simple as using adb to add the apk to the unzipped ROM, can it?

Just curious, trying to learn, maybe see how I like modding myself. I'm not as creative as most of you guys, but I can get pretty technical (not a Java person yet, strictly C and Perl on Linux/Unix for 14+ years now). I'm not expecting to have time to contribute as much as you, Tiny, Nils, Chad, and the rest of the *real* Android devs here (not by a long shot), but I'd like to toss a little something useful into the mix now and again.

Thanks in advance.

Has anyone actually gotten the market to work correctly?

I have the new version market (installed myself, I got tired of waiting for it to update) and I almost never get told that there are updates available. I just moved a bunch of apps to SD to get rid of the low on space message, and when I went back into the market I suddenly had a bunch of updates waiting. Even more strange is that a lot of them didn't have updates when I clicked on them individually, but the update all button still "updated" them all...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
I have the same issue sometimes. I usually just uninstall the persistent apps and reinstall, and that seems to address the issue. I may possibly have something to do with my use of Titanium Backup, but there is no way for me to verify it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] danielzink:
I've been getting the odd bootloop.

Just every once in a while. For no good reason the phone will just start random rebooting.

Love the rom, thx a ton.

One problem though, voice to search/text no longer works while driving. If the car is stopped it works fine. Also when driving it always says " speak more loudly" but you can yell in the thing and it makes no difference.

Anyone else having this issue?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RoboCuz:
I have that issue _sometimes_. It seems very inconsistent, but there are times I need to yell, and others it just works. I think this seems to be a bug with this release, as I've seen others mention it as well.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] andsoitiswritten:
Mine seems to be very consistent. It seems like it turns down the mic so much to try compensating for the road noise that it cant hear me at all.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] zoomy942:
So whats the difference between this and what I flashed a few hours ago?

What's the full ota mean?

Side note - would that tinykernel im seeing work on this rom? Or is it older than the one that comes with this rom?

Auto backlight works great btw.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Ok heres the easiest way to explain it. The Official OTA posted in me and Jermaines OPs are official they are just built from a nandroid. But now thanks to Todd we now have access to a full version of the OTA. Basically the nandroid version was just an update to the last OTA that hit for a few people. The one that Todd uploaded is the full ota that goes from Froyo to GB. Man I hope I explained that simple enough, lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zoomy942:
That's perfect (I do dev work for my job so we're speakin the same language ;) )

So is there a flashable zip floating around already? I've been on the road for 4 hours this morning so I'm out of the loop.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jeffgman:
Sounds good to me. Thanks for all of your hard work on this. I was going to install your original one this morning, but will hold off to see if you notice any differences between the nandroid one and the full ota you just received.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jeffgman:
In the first post of this thread there is a flashable zip. But it is based off a nandroid backup from a user that went from the .2 to .3 build release. He just received the ota that goes from froyo to the .3 gingerbread release. We will see if there are any differences between the two. I would venture to guess they will be identical, but you never know.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Well right now Jermaine is dif ing the full version and compairing what we have to it right now. I just went back to stock myself to see if I could capture as well so he'll likely beat me to getting it uploaded, lol. I don't mind though. But yea as soon as he gets done playing with it I'm sure he'll update his OP and I won't be to far behind.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
I'll probably have to wait for you Wild. It looks like it's still the 605.2 rom with a patch to take it to 605.3. I can't diff it without the patch being applied. :(
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Ok crap, well you know what that means as much as I do. Its exactly the same as what we already have.

I'm gonna be out of the loop for the rest of today as today is my lovely wifes birthday today. In the mean time if you or somebody wants to run this update and make a nandroid so a dif can be ran then by all means go for it. At this time I just don't believe its worth doing. I think we are good with what we have. I probably won't waste anymore time with it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jeffgman:
Well then, it sounds like it is time to start doing some flashing and seeing how this new .3 version behaves. Thanks for your hard work Wildstang and Jermaine.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
So are you saying that 605.3 is the same as 605.2 or that the link from the nandroid of 605.3 is the same as the 605.3 RUU that you were trying to get?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
The second one, lol It's the exact same... just all in one package. Basically we are in the same boat. To use what Todd uploaded we would have to update, regain root and then make a new nandroid and then convert that back to flashable rom form and dif it just to know....

But to me...just me, i don't think its worth it.

If it was me I would say lets chop up what we got and get our customs updated!
