Hello fellow members of XDA Developers,

My name is James , I am 16 years old. I am new on XDA Developers, I own a HTC Incredible S and recently just got to S-OFF and I installed Android Revolution HD 1.1.6 (ARHD) as my custom ROM as well as trying to figure out how exactly flashing works.

Actually, I've been lurking around and looking at posts as an unregistered member under the hTc Incredible S section and gained quite a lot of knowledge through learning from fellow members as their threads are greatly beneficial to me :).

Now I've decided to make myself registered so that I could share the problems and interesting experience I had on my newly rooted phone and discuss with people about ROMS as well as techniques to mod and tweak them.

Well... Actually I registered so that I could reach out to you guys and get help and assistance from senior and more experienced users about my battery problem I'm facing.

Currently, I'm using No-Frills as an overclocking tool and I've been using CurrentWidget to monitor my battery but it still drains fast.

Anyway, I shouldn't bore you all with all this information about my specific phone because this is the general section(sorry:() , see you guys around! Will be participating in discussions more often! htC Incredible S users , hit me up ! :>

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkpuddles:
Hi pplz,

I just recently bought the Rom Manager Premium as I want to upgrade to CM7 because it has the right bluetooth protocols so I can connect my PS3 controller to my phone.

However whenever I try and flash using Rom Manager when it gets into recovery I get this error

E:signature verification failed

and I can't for the life of me get around it. I have since managed to flash the rom manually but still would like to know why this app which cost me $6 doesn't work.

Hi,

You said that you want to flash cm7.On what rom are you now and what kernel are you using?Did you read the instructions in q&a thread of cm7?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnan10:
Ur phone is not rooted correctly I think....check it once
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nitroz:
In order to flash CM7 you need to have the relevant CF-Root Kernel installed specific to your firmware, then go into ROM Manager Premium, press "Flash Clockword Recovery Mod" then select "Samsung Galaxy S 2"

THEN flash CM7, it's all there in the Q&A Thread.

Sorry for the lack of info. I was on RevolutionRom 2.6 using ninph 2.02.

I managed to flash CM7 ver 38 and then once that was up and running I could use the rom manager to go to 39 which worked fine.

Thanks for the help guys.

Anyone know a link that shows what currently is/isn't working in CM7 I don't think my 3G data was working last night when I was looking at it.

Cheers.

Hi!

The message error that you got can be solved by disabling the signature verification.

Just boot into Recovery mode, click on "Install ZIP from sdcard", and you'll find the the option to toggle this option.

[Atrix 4G General] koreanoc:
Hi,

I started this thread because i'm new to this forum and I can't yet post on the development thread of this rom.

Today i flashed this rom into my atrix, I followed all the instructions, which were, first install the base rom 1.3 from recovery cwm, factory reset, clear cache, clear dalvik, reboot, it booted fine, I used it for a bit, and it was fast. Then I flashed the 2.6C rom from recovery cwm, wiped cache (no factory reset). Well, that didn't work for me, when I rebooted the booting screen got stuck where the Unlocked sign appears, so what I did is restore my stock backup rom and repeat the process (the exact same thing I described before). This time everything was fine, 2.6C booted.

The problem is, that the battery meter is running as if it were a countdown timer, it's draining my battery in a way that I couldn't ever imagine, not even my old blackberry torch was able to do such awful thing.

Also, charging is taking forever (1 hour to get 14% using the dock, which charges faster), not to mention that the phone is hotter than hell, the battery temp is normal though. Also if I connect the phone to my laptop to charge it, it actually discharges, meaning that is consuming way to much power than it is receiving.

Another issue I'm having is that I can't hear any music, winamp crashes when loading the song list, so is the stock music player.

Can I anyone point me in the right direction in case I did something wrong? Or do I just give up and return to my stock rom?

Your help would be much appreciated! And probably others have the same problems as I do, and you'll help them too.

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G General] hahmoode:
Yes what you need to do this time is not to use the honey atrix 1.3 overclock use the 1.1 overclock because it is just your processor running faster then it should be. If you use the star wars rom and i have had that for about two to three days now it has been fast and smooth. I used v2.6 and NOT 2.6c if you can't find version 2.6 then please try to use alien v4 rom is very nice and stable but star wars give you the more speed and pretty good battery life i think so far.

I hope that helps sir!

Thank the post if it helped please!
[Atrix 4G General] awitee:
can you use the star wars rom without the star wars theme? i like the features of the rom, but im not much of a star wars fan
[Atrix 4G General] koreanoc:
Thank you for your answer!

Isn't supposed to be overclock capable using setcpu, but not actually overclocked by default after install? That's what I thought in the first place, and that is why I was thinking this issue was weird.

I'll keep your advice in mind, actually star wars rom was my first choice, but I didn't like the theme at all. It would be nice if a stock theme version was out, like cherryPI, which the none themed version is called cherrycrust I think.

As of now, seems like my phone is starting to normalize, is charging yaaay! 35% now, I actually just made a 5 minute call and it just used 1%, could it be cured? I really hope so. Also the music players appear to be working.

This is such a weird issue if you ask me.

I'll leave it charging overnight, and let's see how it behaves tomorrow, if the problems are gone, I'll try it for a while, and if not I'll flash star wars.

Thanks a lot!
[Atrix 4G General] Magnetox:
You should use kenn's alien rom without the theme and then theme it as you wish. It really is the best rom imo.
[Atrix 4G General] seanzscreams:
it works perfect

just flash the non oc if your phone hates it

but yes setcpu is kind of required. it was just assumed everyone has it or knows where to get it..

ill update the op as well

its my rom of choice right now and im getting 14 hours battery

restored two different backups (cyanogen)(and starwars)TODAY ON THIS BATTERY ,

and then restored honeyatrix again in one day

also

made calls

played sprinkle

texted all day

foursquared

internetted

gmailed... all damn day i was getting emails

running wifi searching all day

using google music

ran like 10 tests each quadrant and smartbench(dont ask)

id say thats pretty good
[Atrix 4G General] IUH1991:
If you don't want to overclock then just flash the rom then flash the stock kernel from fauxs thread.
[Atrix 4G General] koreanoc:
I appreciate all your comments, I'll take your advices in mind, and I will try your recommendations.

As of now, my phone is working fine, heat is normal, speedy, and battery is around 40% (I disconnected 7:30 hours ago), which is actually not so different from stock, probably I would have 5 - 10% more.

Thank you all!

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Imbroglio:
Using the verygreen instructions I have been running CM-7.0.3 encore signed off of SD for about 2 months now and want to try to update to the current nightly.

I put cm_encore_full-176.zip in the /boot directory of the SD and tried all of these without success:

1) Used the boot select u-boot.bin to boot from sd and recovery. It just hangs.

2) Used the boot select u-boot.bin to boot from sd and alternate. It just hangs.

I reverted to the standard u-boot.bin and did these without success:

1) Booted into CM7 then using the shut down menu rebooted into recovery. The update was not applied and boot was normal.

2) From power off, held down the power on and N buttons. After loading... appeared counted to 4 and released both buttons. No update applied and booted normall.

3) From power off, held down power on and N buttons. After loading... appeared, released power button, then pressed and held it for 5 seconds, waited for the screen to blank and let go of both buttons. No update applied and NC shut off.

Anyone know what I am doing wrong? I have been scouring all of the NC root sites and it seems everyone has a different hold buttons and release sequence. Is there a special /boot folder or something that can only be accessed while the sd card is in the NC where I have to copy the update zip file?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] votinh:
Why you doing that?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Imbroglio:
Because there were recommendations to do to those steps on this site and others.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DizzyDen:
You are going from a .29 kernel to a .32 kernel... From VG's SASD thread... first post... you need to update the version of the SASD.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] votinh:
Just put the new nightly build into the root folder and boot into recovery.

The only thing you need to do is your skill to boot into recovery, that's all.

The rest should be taken off.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Imbroglio:
Ok copied the file onto /boot.

Tried a different button sequence:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kps9cWvyzqo

It still will not go into recovery mode. The thing is that I used the instructions on the video to help me install CM7 and gapps in the first place and it worked fine.

What exactly is the correct button sequence to get the NC to power on to recovery mode?

As you can see I found 3 different people saying to do it 3 different ways and none of them seem to work.

I am waiting for someone to say you have to wait until the 4th tuesday of the odd numbered month and hold down the buttons to the count of pi * the number of times Lindsay Lohan violates her probation in the past 4.5 months.

Do I need another program installed for this to work? Something like clockwork recovery mod (whatever that is)? Is there a difference that my NC doesn't say "Touch the Future of Reading" but just says "Loading..."?

It is making me pull my hair out and I didn't have that much hair left to begin with!

Just wanted to add an observation that after doing the button sequence in the video, "Loading.." the screen blanks for about .5 second and then is displayed again off center. The it goes into normal boot up.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Taosaur:
I've had to use the "rhythm method" for the first time in a while this week, setting up my dual boot on eMMC, and verygreen's instructions were the only thing that worked for me:

This:

is what should be happening--when the message comes back, press the power button again for five seconds, then release. Anamardoll's videos were made prior to the B&N 1.2 update, prior to CM7.1's existence, and prior to any of verygreen's SASD updates, so the behavior was a little different then.

Also, you may have successfully booted into recovery and installed the SASD 1.3 update file without realizing it--small packages can flash very quickly in verygreen's installer, and iirc, the "Loading" message you describe is expected behavior for SASD 1.3. If you look at the SD's boot partition in your PC and the .zip file is gone, it very likely installed. If that's the case, Power > Reboot > Recovery ought to be working now; copy over the CM7 update .zip, attempt the rhythm method again (may as well), and if you go straight through to CM7, try Power > Reboot > Recovery.

If none of the above works, you have very likely hosed your boot sector with some of the shenanigans in your OP, and may as well format the card and start from scratch with an up-to-date SASD image.

CWM cannot help you with an SD install. If, however, you have chosen at any point to "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" from ROM Manager, then you've already written CWM to your internal recovery partition, and might want to consider installing CM7 internally, as it would now be much easier than fixing your card (assuming none of the above got it done).

Would need someone to build the kernel module (driver) of the dongle if there is one, then write some kind of app to allow you to connect.

Also you would need to run the dongle via a powered hub or splice in some power I would think for it to work.

Recovery/ advanced/ wipe batt stats/ reboot to recovery/ system reboot.
[Thunderbolt General] Kdeli:
should battery be full/plugged in to full when this happens?

If I do this, should I avoid downloading the app mentioned above?
[Thunderbolt General] jbh00jh:
Charger should be unpluged , battery at 50% or above is ok , download the app after you are finished. :)
[Thunderbolt General] turdbogls:
it is best to do a full charge.

have the app on your phone, clear stats

use phone until battery is fully dead, or close to it

recharge again to 100% with out unplugging it

and you should be good.

however charging it to 100% and wiping stats will be fine.

you can do it from the battery app mentioned above, or once charged to 100%, hold power, select reboot, choose recovery, once clockwork shows up, go to advanced, wipe battery stats, "go back" reboot phone.

Thank you all very much. It is much appreciated.

Has anyone here tried to use UOT Kitchen to do any modding? I tried to get a few things changed but the only thing I could successfully mod was the battery icon styly. Everything else I try to do, upon reboot, its not modded.

Among other things id like to add transparency to the taskbar pulldown (like the old Overcome 1.x Froyo that was sooooooo nice and that is gone from KRATOS) as well changing the Notification Power Buttons and taskbar icons to stock Gingerbread.. but nothing, upon flash and reboot, nothing has changed. I'm frustrated.

has anyone successfully used this? Thanks in advance for any input:)
