Yes I have an SLCD.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jaykresge:
I'm waiting for the RUU to land before I update my ROM (not a fan of building from a Nandroid, even if I am being picky). I have that luxury now because we have superior developers you like you and Jermaine around, and my ROM is very similar to what you guys put out.

If I get the RUU loaded on my phone, I'll let you know if the hardware version is off. I'm pretty disappointed with HTC in the lack of quality of this release so far. A lot of these things would have never gotten through if someone had tested the ROM for 5 minutes.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
I agree, it is annoying that there is still those minor issues with the build.prop and now the hardware version not being displayed properly for some users. Oh and the location nag issue is still present.

I will say even with those issues, this build does feel a little better.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] evilstewie23:
I did that flashed just fine
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Sorry for my ignorance, but what is the difference between having this and the RUU? If they are the same version number wouldn't they be the same? Or maybe I am confused.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] blcklab:
What about flashing over the leak from a few weeks ago?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BenHolliday:
Ok, I'm in information overload here and no matter how many times I reread something, it doesn't seem anymore clear. I've just read to many posts in to many threads and maybe, just maybe, I'm a little tired.

Current setup - Stock S-OFF rooted. NO kernals or roms, nothing removed or altered other than updated radio.

I've got the download, DTR, and radio downloaded. Can I load these with Rom Manager or do I need to rename to PB31... and load as update after the two clears? OR, do I load with the current names?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
As far as I know, you can just flash the download and the DTR through Recovery, but you have to flash the radio through HBOOT. As always, make a nandroid first, and clear the cache partition and dalvik cache before flashing anything.

You can't just flash these through ROM Manager. That's only for ROM's through them and the interface, and also for backing your current setup and ROM.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BenHolliday:
Rename to P31img.zip or leave the same?

Thanks for info. Gonna give this a shot.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
Are you saying this doesn't include the updated radio?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
In my opinion, I would flash the other stuff first, make another nandroid, so that you can switch easily between the ROM's if you don't like it or whatever, then come back to the radio. The radio is pretty important in that it is what can literally make or break (brick) your phone.

I'll post directions on how to flash the new radio, but for now, I'd flash the other two.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
The Radio is a separate thing altogether from the ROM. The radio is flashed separately when you're updating it. I'm not sure of how it's done with the OTA though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Quantumrabbit:
ROMs don't package the radio. The OTA does update your radio.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
Directions for flashing a radio:

1. Make sure the file in question says "PB31IMG.zip". Not .zip.zip either.

2. Place it in the root directory of your scdard.

3. Reboot your phone into Hboot.

*Important* Don't do ANYTHING to your phone while it's flashing and updating the radio. There will be a few prompts that require action to get it started initially, but otherwise, just leave it alone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
Useful info, courtesy of wildstang83:

Important if you want to make sure the radio is running as well as it should be, or if you want to flash the previous radio version back.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
Thanks you all of you for the info.

Is there any advantage to flashing this and the radio vs. waiting for the OTA?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
With this, they fixed some errors, and you can keep root and not have to reflash Clockworkmod Recovery all over again. You have to be set up a certain way to not lose root with OTA. Otherwise, if you don't have root, as far as I know, your only perk is getting the build.prop fixed
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BenHolliday:
Thanks musicmonkey for the reply but I'm losing it here (had dental work and I'm still a little cloudy headed).

Nandroid backup made. Here's where I'm confused. Do I install zip from SD with the name it's already named or do I rename and run as update. Basically I cannot figure this out.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Ok so stang, as you know, this rom is the base for my McSense rom. Now I assume this rom has the working weather unlock animations correct (should be stock on any stock Sense rom)? Well one of my users says the he doesn't have them (and yes he made double sure to check that they were checked to on) and I was just wondering if you had any idea how/what I did to disable them? I didn't delete a whole lot from that rom, I tried to keep it mostly stock, so it is just beyond me how I managed to do that lol.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
For the radio, it's important to have the right name. For the other two, just flash it from wherever you have them and the name isn't important.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
I think I might just flash this then, I don't really want to move all of the bloat apps back just for the OTA and then go through re-rooting it.

I assume using Titanium Backup to backup all of my apps would be the best thing to do, rather than letting the Market take care of it (because apparently some people are having issues with apps not showing up)?

I've also been told that I should use CWM 3 instead of 5, is there a reason for that? I'm on 2.5.0.5 at the moment.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
My motto for things like this is always prepare for the worst. So, yes I would TB and nandroid. Be aware that bloatware will be put back, but are still removable obviously. As far as system applications, I wouldn't restore anything over them unless it was certain things like Calendar, Bookmarks, MMS/SMS, etc.

As far as the CWM, just make sure you're using the last known working configuration, which is 3.0.0.8 for SLCD Incredible's, and 3.0.0.7 for AMOLED Incredible's. I've updated the application itself, but it's the versions of Recovery that you can flash that are the big difference IMO.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Yes titanium will be a lifesaver for restoring your apps and if you have a lot of apps (like me) and are planning on changing roms a lot then I would say the paid version is well worth it. Having to accept ever single app individually got old fast.

Yes I would say go with 3.x.x.x 5 is too new, let them work out the bugs in that and 2.5 is getting pretty dusty at this point. If you have an AMOLED screen then use CW 3.0.0.7 and if you have an SLCD screen then use 3.0.0.8

Edit: darn, got beaten to the punch ^ lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
Should I even bother backing things up like Calendar, MMS, etc.?

If I'm understanding things correctly, I would:

1. Backup apps using TB

2. Nandroid

3. Update CWM (does it matter if I do this before making a backup?)

3. Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache using CWM

4. Flash the new ROM

5. Restore apps/settings/etc

Is there a known benefit with the new radio? My understanding is that messing with radios is kind of risky.

(Can you tell I've only done this once before?)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
If you're someone like me, I actually think keeping the continuity of my texts going with the important people in my life. I also like keeping my bookmarks. Everything else is just by preference I guess, but TB highlights and sticks there icon on most of the stuff we'd like to keep.

Move the update of CWM before your nandroid and you should be fine.

Wipe the cache and dalvik in Recovery Mode and flash through that as well. That's what the update in the CWM application is for.

Radios are all about preference. If Verizon wanted us to have it, it doesn't mean we NEED it per say...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BenHolliday:
WHEW, installed and working. On boot it took like forever to boot but it did boot.

Getting the apps I lost installed again but at least its working.

Thanks again musicmonkey and everyone else who has helped.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
My question was how did I screw the build.prop? I installed your Rom, but I see Sprint in the market. I may have restored my version of the market, because it was newer, but is there a fix AFTER flashing the ROM? I might just reflash it again if there is no easier fix.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Obviously don't touch any apks that deal with weather. And be careful with rosie and framework.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Hi, so glad you were able to get it going! Its really simple to do. People just want to be real careful and I totally understand that. Congrats.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
Alright, and when I actually get around to the flashing, I believe you said here that the name of the file does not matter. Pardon my ignorance, but when are "PB31IMG.zip" and "update.zip" files used?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
This is exactly my problem...I'm asking you guys all these questions because I'm worried about screwing up my phone if I just jump in and start messing with things.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Yeah all of that is still completely stock, I just don't understand it...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Maybe. I have a theory. Grab the market from the original froyo ota. Yes I know its old but I've seen it actually update it self. Using Root Explorer go into system/app and remove vending.apk.

Now just move the vending.apk from the froyo place into system/app and set permissions on vending.apk rw--r-r- and reboot. Now just open the market after the phone is booted and think about the good ole days when stuff just worked, lol Close the market, open the market, close the market a few times and then reboot. The market should eventually update it self to the last market and then finally the new market. I know this works because I recently went back to stock unrooted froyo and I actually set there and watched the market update itself twice. When it was done it was finally updated to the newest market.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Does the person report any FC's. Even if there isn't any you should still have them run a logcat during unlocking the phone to see whats not working. I know this maybe complicated for them because not everyone is knowledgeable. they just want stuff to work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
When you're ready to flash the radio, you just follow the directions I posted. If you have the file in the root of your SD card, the it should start the process "automagically" when you start in the bootloader. You don't need to do the update.zip process.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rlacrossjr:
By tweet at 6pm est it's available to upload.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Whats available?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rlacrossjr:
"@VZWnews: #Android 2.3, #gingerbread, is now available for the #Droid Incredible. For more info visit http://t.co/iNeJel0 #vzw @VZWalbert"
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
I did the easy thing and reflashed your Rom, but after uninstalling market. It still has Sprint...

Albeit, broken?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
Do you want the APK of the latest Market?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
So far, I've installed from two different sources, and I'm still ending up with Sprint in the Market... I don't have any problem getting the new Market.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cmlusco:
How did you end up with sprint in the market in the first place? Even when i installed the official ota with the sprinted up build.prop, it still never had sprint in the market nor did it have verizon, it just had a link to my apps where the verizon apps link usually is.

When you go to /data/data/com.android.vending/shared_prefs/vending_preferences.xml and view it as text, does it say the right thing for name="last_build_fingerprint">
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
I'll check. Thanks lusco
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
It's says "verizon_wwe", so I'm not sure why my market is showing Sprint?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tmoney468:
Installed this yesterday, and apart from my SD apps missing upon boot, this ROM is amazing. Wicked fast, and very responsive. Thanks for this!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RoboCuz:
@themusicmonkey, I have the same problem, so you are not alone. I haven't bothered to fix it, as it isn't that big a deal to me, but I am also running this ROM (well, mostly this ROM, I did add the nag fix, the quick settings, the power menu, and a bit of UOT theming :) and don't know why I have the sprint stuff....so once you figure it out, I will probably eventually follow your steps :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Hey guys, if you have pc access or root explorer, open the /system/build.prop file from the rom. I know there WAS sprint stuff in the stock build.props for these OTAs and if Stang didn't take it out, it's still there:

#Welly_Fang_12/30/2010

ro.com.google.clientidbase.yt = android-sprint-us

ro.com.google.clientidbase.am = android-sprint-us

ro.com.google.clientidbase.vs = android-sprint-us

ro.com.google.clientidbase.gmm = android-sprint-us

I took it out in my stock OTA builds.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RoboCuz:
It is not there in his either:

# grep sprint /system/build.prop
grep sprint /system/build.prop
# grep verizon /system/build.prop
grep verizon /system/build.prop
ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-verizon
ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-verizon
ro.product.brand=verizon_wwe
ro.build.fingerprint=verizon_wwe/inc/inc:2.3.4/GRJ22/140944.3:user/release-keys
ro.com.google.clientidbase.yt = android-verizon

Dumb question, what is the DTR?

Sent from Droid Incredible using TapaTalk Pro
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Quantumrabbit:
Data Throttle Remover - Thread.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Data Throttle Remover - inside of the services file on your phone, is a service called Throttle service. DTR removes that service with one side affect; You can no longer access the "Mobile Networks" settings menu.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
Is there a fix to put it back to normal "throttle". It's the only reason I haven't yet.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
You can just flash the rom again, without a wipe or push the original services.jar file from the rom, to /system/framework/
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
Thanks. I haven't gotten into the whole pushing and shoving thing yet. Just have the emulator and root explorer and do small stuff with it. I can isolate the services.jar file, but realistically, I'll probably have a Vigor or Prime before I ever revert back... Hahaha
[Droid Incredible Android Development] k_flan:
I was thinking to how CM7 had a similar problem. In my case, old market shows 'myapps', new market shows 'sprint'.

http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,6158

Not sure how to go about trying to verify if this could be it, but maybe this will help someone with more experience. I've been trying to play with build prop (changing fingerprint, removing lines that CM7 doesn't have in it, etc.) but that hasn't helped me either. Can anyone confirm that they are using the new market and have it showing 'Verizon'?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
Agreed. Anyone?

Update: I reflashed this ROM, and it has the older market. No Sprint to be seen, but then again, I wouldn't know where to look. I'm going to force the update soon and update accordingly.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] crackers8199:
I'm still having all kinds of market issues. Still not showing all my installed apps, and also seeing sprint in the market...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] godsmacked4653:
I don't see Sprint in my market, but I don't see Verizon, either. (I've edited my own build.prop.)

If it's not seeing all your installed apps, clear data from the market app. When you run it again, it forces it to rescan all your apps for market links. Wish I could help with the Sprint stuff. :/
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cmlusco:
For everyone with market issues. Go to data/data/com.android.vending in that folder you will see several other folders, open each folder and delete all the files and folders inside. Download the market app from the earlier post and rename it Vending.apk and place it in /system/app folder and set permissions rw-r--r-- and owner and group to root. Reboot your phone into recovery and wipe dalvik and cache partition and run fix permissions. Reboot and see if that works for ya. Just something to try not a for sure fix. I had the older market and had no issues but i decided to install the new one just to see if it lost any of my apps or shows sprint stuff, and i had no issues. Searching sprint shows no sprint apps and searching verizon shows all the verizon apps. Also it did not loose a single one of my apps. I installed exactly as i stated above.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
It's not "rw-r--r--"?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cmlusco:
Was that a question or a statement? The permissions should be as you stated above, rw-r--r--.

Owner: read & write

Group: read

Other: read

Owner: 0 - root

Group: 0 - root
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
Sorry, I got confused. Earlier, someone posted "rw--r-r-" instead of the above. Just clarifying.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] crackers8199:
I've cleared data, wiped dalvik, rebooted, and every possible combination of the three. Nothing has gotten me all my apps with updates available back...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
I did everything suggested, but my Market hasn't updated to the newer version as of yet.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
Okay, wiping all that stuff screwed up something. I was coming across the same issue with apps not being able to be reinstalled and other stuff. So I restored my old Sprint-laden new market.

I'm done screwing with it for now, but I might reflash the ROM once more and just leave the packaged original, non-current market it replaces it with.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ejdavis72:

Now that i'm rooted on gingerbread, can I still use the wireless tether app without getting charged for hot spot?

I noticed that my wife's Droid 2 now prompts her to pay for hot spot on gingerbread even with the wireless tether app when this never happened with froyo.

Sent from Droid Incredible
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Yes you can but since this is a stock Rom you'll have to go into the EPST menu and set some settings first.

Dial into EPST by dialing ##778#. Put in 000000 for the password.

Go to 'Security' and change 'S.IP DUN User Name' from:

yourphonenumber@dun.vzw3g.com

to

yourphonenumber@vzw3g.com

Back up one screen and go into 'M.IP Default Profile' and do the same thing for the input named 'DUN NAI'.

Once those two changes have been made just press the menu key and select Commit Modifications. From there your phone will reboot automatically and you should be good to go! Just install Wireless Tether and have fun.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
Alright, backing up my apps with TB right now, then I'll update CWM and flash this and report back.

Edit: wildstang, could you clarify the bit you said here about formatting "system"?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
Every time I try to update CWM via hboot, nothing happens. I downloaded 3.0.0.7 via ROM Manager, which named it "update.zip" in the root of my SD card. I was told by another forum member to name it "PB31IMG.zip" and install via hboot, and it sees the file and says it's parsing it, but then nothing happens. It takes me back to the regular menu with the options for fastboot, recovery, factory reset, etc. Do I need to leave it as update.zip?

Edit: I downloaded 3.0.0.7 directly from dougpiston.com and it applied via hboot. I have no idea what ROM Manager was doing differently.

Is there any difference between a nandroid done with 3.0.0.7 vs. 2.5.0.5?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Truckin'Ain't4Sissies:
There's a difference between ClockWorkMod and a Radio (PB31IMG.zip).

Radio you flash through HBoot

CWM can be updated via app ROM MANAGER.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cmlusco:
You can also flash cwm as a PB31IMG.zip. PB31IMG.zip isn't just for flashing radios it is also for recoveries, ruu's, and to update hboot etc.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
Yeah, I know, but it looked like ROM Manager was going to install CWM 5.0.2.0 and I was told that 3.0.0.7 is the one I should use for my AMOLED Incredible, and I couldn't get ROM Manager to install that one. I got it worked out though, but I'm not sure if I should do another nandroid (I made one this morning with 2.5.0.5, which is why I was asking if it would be any different than one made with 3.0.0.7).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cmlusco:
I dont believe there is a difference but just to be safe id make a new one anyways. Better safe than sorry.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] silverxbv2:
I made 3 backups when i switched from 2.5.0.5 to 3.0.0.7 and got Bootloops on all 3 when i tried to do a restore. I had to hunt for a working 2.5.0.5 recovery image for like 6 hours to get my phone back in working order. I've never switched recoveries only because i don't see the benefit in doing so.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hand76:
Silver same thing happened to me. Basically 2.5.0.5 is only good for froyo based roms, so when I updated to 3.0.8 and went back to restore my old rom it didn't work either.

This is no longer an issue since I am on Gingerbread but boy was that a pain in the ass when it first happened.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] silverxbv2:
I just hate the fact that they release new recoveries that make your old backups essentially useless. It was the fact that I made a backup of Skyraider in 3.007 and got Bootloops that through me off. I figured restoring an old backup with new recovery wouldn't work. But not being able to restore a backup made with the new recovery? That just had me confused.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] crackers8199:
Two questions...

1 has anyone figured out how to get rid of the sprint crap in the market and get Verizon to come up?

2 can someone post the original market app that this comes with?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] themusicmonkey:
Mine just updated and Sprint is showing up on the Apps section again.
