ok that makes a lot of sense, cant believe i did not realize that, it kinda obviouse now that i think about it.

i believe you are right that the task killer is shutting it down.

now what do i do about it it,the only task killer i am running is the one that is built into the rom, there was another program that it kills and would like to exclude, but unlike the task killers i have played with in the past this one does not seem to have a place to set exceptions.

if you know how or know where the info is on this please let me know.

thank you

no i that program is so small and easy i dont bother restoreing it, usualy on only restore programs that have a lot of setup involved like esfile where i have to put in all the server info for my computers i access, and and the couple games i have that i do not want to lose my progress.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] punman:
Um ... I don't think the built-in Task Manager (if that's the one you're referring to) will actually kill anything. Android 2.2 and up have a "task killer" built into the linux kernel, called "lowmemorykiller." You can Google it if you want some technical explanation, but basically every single process that runs on your phone has a weight associated with it. The higher the weight, the more likely the kernel will kill that process if it needs to free some RAM. Android weights heavily processes such as the foreground app and essential services such that the kernel will never kill them. Other processes are given weights such that when the system is close to running out of RAM they'll get killed first -- unused services or background apps that aren't doing anything, for example. (In this case, lower numbers are higher priority tasks, higher numbers get killed first.)

The Launcher, I would think, is one of those processes in a fairly high priority class, since you really don't want the user to have to reload it every time they exit an app. If the Launcher is getting killed, and you're not running a third-party task killer, then if everything else is running properly, I have to assume you're killing the RAM on your phone with something. I'd check to make sure your apps are all behaving properly. If you said it happens after you exit a game, well, I'd believe that game is probably eating up all your RAM. If it happens after Handcent ... I dunno what to tell you, I have heard Handcent is a resource hog too.

Now, if you don't want it to happen, you can see about increasing the priority of the Launcher manually. I would do something like this from a root shell:

setprop ro.HOME_APP_ADJ 4

And see if it kills the launcher a little less aggressively, and if not, back it down to 2 or even 1. But if you don't know what that means, you probably shouldn't be mucking about with it, as you're seriously affecting the kernel's ability to kill a process that takes up quite a bit of RAM. I accept no responsibility for what happens. :)

There's a Super Charger script or something like that floating around ...

Might want to try that, I've been nervous about fiddling too much with lowmemorykiller, but it does claim to get your launcher killed less. YMMV. Good luck!

Things have been pretty solid for me since installing the WiFi static app and Tiny's 10/31 kernel. Currently there are no major problems to report.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BBEgo:
Hey Nils,

I dropped my phone last night and smashed the display up, so it looks like my Incredible days are over.

Just wanted to take a moment to say thank you for making the last several months with it so enjoyable.

I'll be spending the next few weeks on a Droid X til the Rezound comes out. Looking forward to lots more fun in the near future.

Take care!

BBEgo
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
That is unfortunate BBEgo. Hope all is well otherwise and the Rezound will be in hand sooner than you realize.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BBEgo:
thanx, Snoop. Yeah I was bummed, but it's just a few weeks.

I REALLY miss Sense 3.5... :(

All is well otherwise. I'm just glad I had this X laying around. The insurance deductible to replace my beloved Incredible was $100. And to spend that much for a phone I'd only be using for a couple of weeks seemed kinda dumb.

Funny thing: I'd been researching development on the X over the last few weeks due to a phone debacle my girl was going thru, and I learned a lot about it. The rom flashing on the X is very complicated. It's so much simpler with the Dinc.

But with all my research, I found some really interesting ROMs to try. Should keep me busy til the Rezound hits.

I'm sure I'll be seeing many of you soon.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] HOOKEDONDROID:
Funny thing, I'm kinda in the same boat haha. A couple of days agp, my screen started to get all wonky (blue screen) missing colors, glitchy, apps started working incorrectly etc. I thought it.may have been a bad install, so I wiped completely and re downloaded the Rom, re installed etc. Screen is still borked. I believe it is a hardware issue. Screen is dieing, hopefully she makes it to when rezound drops. My local vzw store had posters up of it today, so hopefully soon.

Nils I too want to thank you for all the hard work, dedication, and help you have given to all of us. Especially answering questions multiple times to people that are too lazy to read the op and rest of the posts. You are one of a kind and I can't wait to see what you bring to the table on the rezound. I'm gonna keep flashing and using my incredible until she dies completely.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Azag Thoth:
yes i was referring to the one built into the rom, i was thinking it was killing the launcher. Thank you for your help and the info, i think i have found the culprit it seems to be handcent sms.

this is bad because i really love that program,up till just recently i have had no issues with it but this rom may be more sensitive to this program or the program it self has changed in such a way that it is not so compatible with these roms,they have updated it a couple times lately.

but all my not be loss, it could be my fault it is one of the programs i tend to restore with data from titanium, i know that is a no no but it has worked without issue up until recently. so i am starting over from scratch i cleaned out everything and followed Nil's guidelines for clean prep to install this rom. I have done that every time i have installed any of these, the only thing i did that i should not have was restored programs with data after installing rom.

also i am very comfortable with doing things like the command you listed above to change weighting of the task , i have been around computers since i was a young lad started out with the good ole' commodore Vic-20 and its massive 5k of ram, and a 50MB hard drive was the size of a kegerator and and a 300 baud modem by Hayes was the sh!t.

i am somewhat new to the android sene only had my Dinc sinse February of this year, i would pry have gotten one much sooner if i had realized there was this large community of devs with mods. When i got my phone i was shocked with what it was capable of and how much i could get in it and change stuff, i had it s-off and rooted 3days after purchase

not bad considering 4days before i did not even know such capabilities existed.

wow i really rambling, sorry. i will post after i get my phone all back up and running and hopefully fixed and let everyone know what the problem was.

thank you again.:D

---------- Post added at 07:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:20 AM ----------

I am not running task killers, i tried them a while back and determined they did not help, at leaste in my case they did not.

there is the one that is built into this rom, and i would turn it off if i knew how.

i do believe i have found out the problem i think handcent is causing it. i froze handcent in titanium and reactivated the text program that came with rom and the problem seemed to go away i am not sure it is fixed since i only played with it for a short time but i am reloading the rom and everything from scratch and see what happens.

Droid-life has a liveblog going of the reveal of Rezound happening at 3:30 http://www.droid-life.com/2011/11/03/live-htc-set-to-announce-the-rezound-in-nyc/
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BBEgo:
Wow, the Rezound (according to the blog at the big unveiling event) can record 1080p, and do voice/data simulaneously! It comes with Beats headphones, and has front/rear facing cameras. LTE, 16gB internal AND external storage!

$299 with contract.

:eek:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
I'm not due for an upgrade until the Inc's second birthday so I have plenty of time to make a decision on my next phone.

Also, my only problem with this rom is how stable it is. I've accepted the fact that I'm going to use this rom until my phone upgrade :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] countryfolk07:
That's good! Lolol. I love this ROM too. The longest I've stayed with a sense ROM.

Did I overhear Nils say that he has 3 Incredibles--soon to be 3 Rezounds--and that he is giving one away on this thread? Wow!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
Glad to see the wifi issue has been resolved for you.

hahaha
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jamala00:
So is the development for the Inc slowly coming to an end? I mean I can understand it would. Is the Rezound the next best thing the devs are looking at? I am waiting for it to hit the store so I can actually go look at it. I see the Inc forum over at androidforums has really came to a crawl.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Down to 2 now. Gave one away.

Am looking forward to something new but still working in this.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hitch_Itch:
I would be willing to bet, just like the Dinc, demand will overtake supply and the Rezound will have a long waiting list
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
That would be a gift and a curse and there's not much anyone could do about that either.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbh00jh:
And, it has already been rooted ( Rezound ) says TeamAndIRC and jcase. One more week to wait.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] JimmyJayCEO:
NilsP you are giving away a Rezound or DInc? Either way that's awesome. I am waiting for the next update to this ROM before I flash it over. I remember seeing somewhere (I think) you mentioned that you are working on the camera? So with this ROM having Beats included and having to flash Tiny's kernel it destroys the camera on all fronts or just the 4.0 camera?

I am VERY excited to give this 3.5 ROM a try, and seeing the difference between the current one I'm running.

Keep up the good work!:D:D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hitch_Itch:
Tiny's kernel looses disk mount to pc, but gives you beats. I haven't had a chance to try tinys newest kernel, It may be fixed, Tiny was working on it. If not you can use android commander for disk mount.

The camera is working, Im not sure what camera version it is, but I dont think its 4.0

Im thinking that Nil's next version will be ok to flash over, most of his upgrades are. It wasn't going from 1.5 to 2.0 because it had the newest leaked base.

Give it try its a sweet ride

Hitch
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Mount to PC works in 10/31 and 11/2 kernel. Beats does not.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JimmyJayCEO:
Thanks hitch. Thinking back it was the disk mount i read that broke. Which of tinys kernels are you using and will his newest one work with this ROM ya think? I would think there shouldn't be a problem, but better safe than sorry.

Does beats make a big difference in your opinion? I've heard mixed opinions. Thanks for the Android commander tip too!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
If you're asking about the new ones I'd say the 11/2 as it has fixes from 10/31.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JimmyJayCEO:
Tiny which kernel works best with beats? I can now get around the disk mount thing thanks to Hitch.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Since I try to make my kernels progressive, use the latest one that works with Beats which is 10/23. Some claim better performance with 10/15. I'd say either of those two if you need beats. They're the most bug free if you need beats working.

10/8 is still good but really stick with 10/15 or 10/23 for beats.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JimmyJayCEO:
Well i am one for the newest things so 10/23 it is! Thanks for your hard work!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hitch_Itch:
Im gonna have to flash 10/23 and give it a run. Sorry about the mis info about your kernel Tiny, my bad, so much info to remember here, sometimes I get it all f'd up

Imho, some songs sound way better with beats and other songs dont seem to sound any different.

I have Samsung ear buds and Sony xtra bass over the hear headphones and the Sony headphones sound way better then the ear buds, not the ear buds sound bad, the xtra base does the trick

Hitch
[Droid Incredible Android Development] KlugN:
I was impressed with the phone's specs. I'm not sure I could handle the size of the phone though...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hitch_Itch:
I need something that size, i can see that small print anymore, pretty soon I will be carrying my tablet on my hip LoL
[Droid Incredible Android Development] KlugN:
I mean more the thickness than screen size. If the razr had an unlocked bootloader I may consider it a contender but I'm still leaning toward the galaxy nexus for now. The Rezound looks awesome, It's just so bulky. Then add a case and you might as well carry it on your hip anyway. Lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hitch_Itch:
I have tried non sense roms in the past and have always swapped back to Nil's. I just cant go without sense.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] KlugN:
That's my biggest concern :(
[Droid Incredible Android Development] countryfolk07:
Just get the Rezound , then you can do both eventually. :D

btw, can someone point me to the data throttle remover for this rom? I can't find it after searching

When I load Plants vs. Zombies (purchased from Amazon appstore), then I quit using the Quit menu item in game or press the home button it crashes Sense and I see the HTC white screen and then Sense reloads.

Does anyone else have this issue? It seems to happen every time for me.

It means you did one Hell of a job, Nils. Best 3.5 ROM out there, IMO.

Did you ever sort out that occasional lock-ring freeze issue?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mirrin:
i have not noticed that issue i just tried it on mine... my only suggestion would be to clear the cache for pvz if that doesnt work clear the data start over see if that solves the issue...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nikedunks:
i have had this happen to me ttoo, but wiwith browser rather than a game. What I think happens is that the phone runs out of resources, so it closes some of HTC's background operations...I notice the free ram is super low, and that the browser is taking up 150+MB. After it closes, the free ram goes bback to normal
[Droid Incredible Android Development] KrisPeezy:
I'm getting the black HTC loading screen whenever i back out of some apps.

of what I can remember, it's happened on maps, foursquare, google+, and facebook.

I noticed it happening more often today on a lot more apps than I expected.

I remember seeing that as apps are demanding more ram, it's possible that sense can be closed in order to clear up more space. But this is happening with no other apps running afaik in the task manager.

I'm gonna try clearing caches right now, any other suggestions?

Question I lost my boot animation, If I format boot and find a replacement flash able Boot animation will that work? I'm going out on a limb because Idk what Formatting Boot does exactly but thats what I would assume.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mirrin:
no formatting boot will erase just that the boot directory key files that are required to boot are stored there...

to do a boot animation there is a directory you can drop them into...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jioleight:
yup, its working.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BBEgo:
@ mirrin:

That's not a good idea. Never wipe something if you're only guessing as to what might be in there.

Sounds like u screwed up the install already by getting a little mod-happy. I would either restore to a backup that works perfectly, or simply wipe dalvik and flash the ROM over itself without a data wipe. That should put u right again. Now you'll just need to put back whatever mods u used before (tiny's kernel, Ext4, etc...) manually, and u should be good to go. Good luck.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mirrin:
It was not me wiping boot it was the person I quoted. But you are right he is probably better off starting fresh rather than just putting a boot animation into the proper folder with the right name.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kyuubi08:
what i mean is the rosie launcher from the bliss rom, and the quick links i believe is the one that is being shipped with the xl sensationl when i had originally loaded this it seemed incredibly small

Visual VM not working? - Resolved!

Thanks to Therev29 for pointing me in the right direction on this one. For anyone else having problems with Visual Voicemail, here's what I did to fix it.

Edit build.prop and change

ro.HorizontalVVM = true

to

ro.HorizontalVVM = false

Reboot

The Verizon Visual Voicemail app still didn't show up in the Market after that, but I was then able to download and manually install it from here.

http://code.google.com/p/warm-z-two...dible/data/com.vzw.vvm.androidclient.apk?r=22

Other posts mentioned needing to change "ro.HorizontalBUA = true" to "false" as well, but that wasn't necessary for me.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I forgot to change that when I rebased in 2.0 and is fixed in the next release.

VVM may not show up in the market unless there is an update to it so you just need to find a apk for the latest version like you did..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kyuubi08:
well, i just flashed it over, and it did relace the rosie and lock screen, but the quick widget is now installed, but it doesnt show up as an installed widget

if I Flash the rom over itself will I keep my text, and other minor setting, I did it before, but It was by accident.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
/system/media and they have to be named bootanimation.zip and downanimation.zip and it is case sensitive. I tried to make it easy by making it all lower case
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Djay1809:
Thank you Sounds simple enough but will the downanimation.zip already be apart of whatever animation I download or it just depends on whoever you get it from? also is there anyone you would recommend to make a boot animation, Theres just one clip in a vid I would really like and if I could make it my animation I would?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Most people just do boot so you have to look around more for down.

All you need to do is take my bootanimation and replace the images as long as they are the same size and you DO NOT compress the zip.

New release in OP

Release 2.1

* Stock Kernel since custom kernels give different results on different phones

* Black notifications and quick settings (Trans with Tweaks)

* Switched to arrowless keyboard (arrowed keyboard in post 3)

* Fixed popup images

* Fixed FC when in gallery when trying to hide folders

* Optimized framework to help with lockscreen freeze

* Removed Scan since it does not work with this camera

Can't swear lockscreen freeze is fixed but I have not had one in a week with stock kernel.

Flash over 2.0 OK
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Djay1809:
Just installed, Waiting on boot now.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] omniatic:
Haven't had any issues (freeze-ups, FC's, etc.) with 2.0, so is 2.1 a must- flash, or an option for those having problems?
