Fast Reboot

Not sure if it's frowned upon by devs etc, but I utilize the free "Fast Reboot" app every once in a while along with Launcher Pro b/c of its speed. Under no circumstances should the battery drain that hard, unless say you had driving navigation running constantly. lol. Also, when you view your battery usage, it should tell you what's eating it up percentage-wise (like wi-fi etc.)? Some apps just love to run in the background and annihilate battery. Trial and error. Best of luck.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DustinBooyah:
I just went through my accounts and sync settings and changed them to the biggest update intervals possible... I did the same with any other app I am signed into on a regular basis. I also removed the FriendStream widget for good measure. Things seem to have slowed down so that's pretty good.

Are you using haptic feedback? The phone vibrating is probably one of the biggest contributors to dead battery besides the display. I always have it set to where my phone never vibrates
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Div033:
I'm having issues backing up and restoring this rom. Everytime I restore, Rosie is missing and I *think* the Warm theme is the culprit. Otherwise the only change I've made is I've replaced the stock MMS app with the cm7 one.

Can anyone confirm that they're able to successfully backup and restore this rom using the warm theme?

I'm using CWM 5.0.2.0

If you're around wireless as much as I am, leaving wifi on at all times is much better for battery life. It keeps the phone from having to keep up with cell towers to sync data, etc. My wifi policy is set to never sleep. Right now I've been off charge for 9 hrs with 85% battery left (extended battery). If you go into settings, about, battery, battery use and touch the graph at the top it will show you more detail. Look for a solid blue bar on anything. There should be gaps in the lines representing the times the phone was sleep, except maybe for wifi.

***I'm mobile
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Quantumrabbit:
I have the opposite experience. Both at home, and at work I have Wifi, but unless I'm actively using it, I disable it, because it drains battery notably faster than 3g.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] WhammyDroid:
Is it possible to get the warm theme but keep the original stock icons?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gamelord21:
frown face :( b/c I can't use the phone without draining the battery... I think all of you DEVs are great.. :)

I keep my phone on the lowest brightness display.

Wifi is always OFF

vibrate is OFF - notifications off

I only have installed few apps and don't use them all the time: Flixter, Real Cal; Shazam; smooth calendar ... the rest cam with the rom

On the battery use I have Display on top with 60 - 70% all the time

Phone Idle with 20 - 30%

Cell satndby with 10 - 20%

any suggestions?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] funnelweaver:
I had the same issue. I ended up having to re-flash the ROM (no wipe) and re-apply the Warm theme (and all other modifications).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
I'm the same. 3g kills battery at work. Signal is around -90. My phone will even get warm in 30 minutes on 3g. Much better at home. Wifi uses much less battery at home for me. I don't use it at work. Dustin do you have it autoconnect to wifi at work? If it does not it could be searching for networks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Tired of the Bull:
No, not unless Jermaine or someone pulled them out into a flashable zip you could apply after you flash the warm theme.

With my old eyes I wasn't a fan of either set of icons so I went to UOT Kitchen and selected some that work perfectly for me. In general, I think everyone should do that, it is a great way of taking an awesome performing ROM like this one and making it perfect for each individual.

My experience in somewhere in between. If I'm at home with a stable Wifi I can connect to and stay connected to then it is much better that 3g on the battery life. But if I'm anywhere the Wifi isn't as stable and the phone starts hunting around or losing an then re-connecting it is devestating to my battery. So I have profiles for Work, Home, Night, Travel etc. that adjust the Wifi settings to maximize battery life.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] evanbowers:
Several of my battery drain issues were fixed when I flashed from .28 radio to .07.07 radio, and updating PRL. I am running this ROM w/o warm theme and get very decent battery life even with normal use on 3g. (standard battery, 10-12 hrs)

As always Verizon also claims that updating your PRL helps with battery drain, signal, etc. You can do that by dialing *228 from verizon. I know these results do vary depending on the signal strength but I suggest trying one or both of these things if you're having battery issues.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] truegrass:
My appologies if these questions have already been asked... I have been wanting to update my phone and had a few questions. I am rooted -s with stock 2.2 rom.

I was wondering if the DTR would work with this rom? I have done some reading on the DTR and it states to run DTR after a full wipe and flashing of a rom. Just wondering if it would work on this rom?

Thanks for any help!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] evanbowers:
DTR will work with any ROM. But if that ROM made changes to services.jar it will clean those out.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gamelord21:
I also tried doing all that, Used Wifi, I updated the radio to 07.07 update the PRL now reading 52501... but it has not improved...

I read somewhere that maybe updating the kernel? but I'm not too sure I have 2.6.35.13 dated thu aug-2011

I dont know what else to make last a little longer.

:confused:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] truegrass:
Thanks for your help!

One last question, will flashing to this stock rom make me loose root?

Just finished reading the entire blog so far... it seems like a solid ROM. Seems like just a few people having trouble with battery life.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JoeyBert:
How can you revert back to Stock Sense theme? Any other option than to restore a backup?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Div033:
Wipes cache/dalvik and reflash the rom without wiping. Should do the trick.

Sent from my Droid Incredible using the XDA app.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JoeyBert:
Is this any better than restoring?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Div033:
Yes, because all of your current settings are retained along with any changes you've made since the backup. However, if you did any flashable mods or system/app changes you'll most likely have to redo those.

I can backup the warm themes stock+ but not restore. I tried a hundred different ways. I even reinstalled my hboot thinking that was the problem. I get stuck on the bootanimation and it never gets past. I made 10 backups, 5 thru recovery and 5 thru RM. Then flashed each of them differently. I thought my recovery was totally screwed so I reverted back to 3.8 and made backups and tried to restore with 3.8. Again, no luck. Then I read your post reinstalled stock+ without the warm theme and made a backup and it restored fine. It must be the theme screwing it up. For the record I just got this inc thru insurance and had no other backups on my card which got trashed with my old dinc. Thanks for mentioning it was the theme otherwise I would still be hella frustrated and ready to smash this thing.

Not being able to restore with a theme present sucks. Anyway this can get fixed? I'm not trying to be a **** but fresh installing or not using this awesome theme is a drag.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] truegrass:
Jermaine, this is one rockin ROM! It is solid. I just flashed about two hours ago and everything went smooth. My thanks to everyone that has helped. There is a ton of great information in this blog!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Those symptoms sound like maybe the signatures on Incubus' files aren't matching up with the rom, but that's only an educated guess. One of you two please get a logcat of it booting after the restore w/ theme, post it to pastebin.com and post the link here. We can iron that out.

I'm glad that you're enjoying it! :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] truegrass:
I have noticed that the hidden menue ##7764726 (##program) is not working... I am not sure if this is a known issue or not.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
I'm using my other rom with the same base and it's working for me. Asked for a password, I entered 6 zeros and it took me to the programming menu.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phaze one:
Jermaine, I would be more than happy to provide you with a logcat. I provided chad with a logcat when there was some issues with one of his kernels. That was some time ago though and I completely forget how. Do you have some kind of messenger service, gtalk ,google+ messenger, etc. or just a PM to walk me through this because I want this figured out. I love this ROM and the warm theme too much to sit back and do nothing.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
It sounds like you have everything already set up on your pc since you did this before. I'll post here in case someone else wants to know how to do it:

1) Restore your backup with the theme, stay in recovery and plug your phone into the pc.

2) Open a windows command prompt (I'm assuming that you're using windows) and change directories into your sdk\platform-tools folder. So if you're sdk folder is C:\sdk do this:

cd c:\sdk\platform-tools

Then choose "Reboot now" in recovery and when you see the white HTC splash screen (Or your custom one) type this into the command prompt:

adb logcat > logcat.txt

It might say "waiting for phone" or something, for a sec and then it will just sit there if it's working right. Wait til it gets to the bootloop or freezing stage and then hit [CTRL-C} in the command prompt.

Open windows explorer and navigate to your sdk\platform-tools folder and open the logcat.txt file that's there. Choose "Edit" "Select All" and then "Edit" "Copy". Go to pastebin,com, paste it there and click submit. Then post the URL, that pastebin gives you, here.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jaykresge:
Did you upgrade to the new radio? You have to have the current (GB) radio for that to work in this ROM.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Good catch Jay. I didn't know that.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] truegrass:
Thanks man, that's it. I will flash the GB radio later this weekend when I have some spare time.

Thanks again!

[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
The stuff I put was to show you what the prompts would look like. I think I confused you. I will edit my instruction post and leave only what you should type. You're in the right place.

EDIT: Done. Give that a shot.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phaze one:
sweet, let's get this done.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
See the updated commands in my post.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phaze one:
deleted....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jeffgman:
Yup, worked for me on this rom also.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DustinBooyah:
Me either, this might be what was affecting my battery. I just flashed and I'll report back tomorrow night, I had about 10 hours today going from 100 to 9%, who knows what'll happen with the new radio :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] truegrass:
Hey Jay, I got a chance to upgrade the radio and now the menue works. Thanks for the info.

I took the phone off of charge at around 08:00 am and now it is at 80%. That was on the stock froyo baseband. My dB is about the same with the new radio. I have done *22899 and will report back to let everyone know if this has increased battery life.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phaze one:
I didnt get it last night jermain. When I get home tonite, I'll give it another go.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Ok. Make sure that you know where you installed the Android SDK. Find the folder and let me know where it is and the name of it and I'll change the commands to match it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phaze one:
Ok cool, sounds good
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DustinBooyah:
Jermaine...

Flashing the .07 radio and resetting my battery stats SUBSTANTIALLY increased my battery life. I flashed it 12 hours ago and I'm at 81... granted I still have the settings I configured for syncing and whatnot, I think it's safe to say that it should be highly recommended to update the radio for this rom if the user hasn't done so yet. Well, if they're comfortable with it anyways :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phaze one:
This just keeps getting wierder and wierder. Now I can't install the warm theme over regular stock+. After I flash it and it reboots it hangs at the bootanimation which isnt even the custom one I have. I have to do a battery pull and do a restore.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Div033:
Does the screen still turn off as if its completely loaded? Like, the phone vibrates (indicated it has fully loaded) yet it still shows the HTC simply brilliant screen (which, by the way, the warm theme replaces your current boot animation with this one)?

If so, that means Rosie.apk isn't present and its failing to load a home application. I have this issue with restoring a warm themed backup. If you installed launcher pro or something before flashing the theme I bet it'd boot to that. I too would like to know why this happens. Interestingly, I've not had this problem flashing over. Have you tried flashing the warm theme over a fresh install?

[Droid Incredible Android Development] JoeyBert:
I love the optical wake - the Warm theme is real nice. I don't normally bang with themes but I can get used to this - battery life isn't great but this is a fantastic ROM - keep it up
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phaze one:
Yes, exactly this.

Well instead of a fresh install, which I did yesterday, I wiped cache, and dalvik and refashed the ROM like I would an update. Then made a nandroid and flashed the warm theme and it just installed fine.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phaze one:
Any luck restoring your themed nandroids?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Div033:
I've tried various things to get it to restore properly to no avail. It seems if I wanted to restore I'd have to first restore, then wipe cache/dalvik, re-flash the rom, then re-flash the theme similar to how you did. I deemed this too much extra work as I'm a crackflasher and went back to McSense for now. Hopefully incubus or Jermaine can figure out why Rosie is shy around the warm theme.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] caleris:
I have the exact same problem as well. In your procedure listed here, did you do the nandroid from recovery or did you boot first? Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phaze one:
I booted first just to make sure it would boot ok. It did, so I made a nandroid with ROM manager. I also restored with recovery to just to make sure my recovery and ROM manager weren't the problem. They're not, it has to do with the theme, I'm with div033 on this one.

text delete issue

I noticed this on the original stock build when i got this phone, which was annoying to deal with.

Try deleting a text message thread in excess of 50, and then try to exit out of your text, and then try and go back in or do something else.

I noticed that it hung on a black screen sometimes, partially froze. On average in froyo it took 1 sec/text to delete. Looks like this is still around in this build.

Maybe this is a 1.0 sense issue ?

anyone else?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
I couldn't get the warm theme to work either correctly. Even when pushing the files across it would sort of work, like then it would load the lockscreen. I decided to just deal with no theme. It's odd that it works for some and not others.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phaze one:
Yeah I know. Its hit or miss. Its very frustrating that a nandroid with this theme cant be restored. For the hell of it I just installed the ROM as an update and then installed the theme after doing a nandroid of stock+ no theme and it stayed. Its wierd man.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
I'm so with you on that one. The Vigor will most likely be my next phone and my Dinc has just been the best phone I've ever had. I think I'll keep him around so I can test fixes and rom builds without my girl getting mad because she gets sent to voicemail while I'm flashing and bootlooping. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jskolm:
I am with you on that one too. I will most likely leave for the vigor if it lives up to the hype....

... and I get chewed out too when my wife gets sent to VM while I am flash.... or just restarting sometimes lol.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lssanjose:
I think I'll keep this phone until it's dead.. Unless, the Prime, or Vigor knocks my socks off
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jpzsports:
I love the features of this ROM and am considering trying it.

It's just that I'm so in love with the Sense 3.0 lockscreen and being able to read all incoming text messages straight and center without having to unlock.

There are some other nice 3.0 features that I like as well, but this is the only thing that really matters to me.

I really like the speed and smoothness of stock roms.

Is there any possible way to get the 3.0 lockscreen on Sense 1.0 or is it totally impossible?

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
I keep hearing that Agile Lock, from the market, is just like the Sense 3.0 lockscreen and runs on Sense 1.x. I don't know if it does the text message previews or not, but it's worth a try.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 318sugarhill:
I too have been using MIUI for about 2-3 months. I think I am going back with this as there are a few glitches in MIUI i've recently come across......like not auto connecting to my wifi network when I come home. I have to open the wifi settings and then it auto connects. Wierd.

I too have no reason to upgrade till it dies. Don't want to jump through hoops to unlock a new device, and a front facing camera is pointless with my mac air tethering through it for facetime :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] caleris:
ROM is great. Thanks very much.

Going to give this a try, excited about the Volume and music combo...always loved that on Cyanogenmod and Froyo ROMs'. Gonna theme this up with some Overscroll and be on my way :D

It's working great for me so far. I plan on including it in my update too :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SimpTheChimp:
Ok, noticing a couple of things:

Why can't I get the newest Facebook (1.7) with this? I downloaded from the Market but it was the old 1.5 version.

Can we get the latest Market? This one is the older version.

I can't seem to be able to use any other keyboard except the default one. I have Swiftkey and Touchpal; but even when I select these the old standard keyboard comes up.

That's all I see so far, otherwise pretty slick.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
The new market can be found in the apps section. I left this one with the old one, that it came with, because it's much faster IMO.

I don't have this loaded but you should be able to get the latest Facebook. You're not choosing the Facebook for HTC Sense app, are you?

After enabling the keyboards in settings, you have to long press an area that you would type in, choose "input method" and select the keyboard you want to use.

EDIT: If you remind me tomorrow, I'll make you a flashable zip with the new market.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zeke1988:
