I don't think it is a lost cause yet. Mostly a memory issue.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Paintboarder:
Is it just me or is facebook not syncing contact pictures for everyone? Even if I link contacts again (they already have the facebook link on the google contact) I only get pictures syncing for some. Even when I don't link them some decide to sync pictures. It just annoys me that the person I text the most won't sync the picture.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] punman:
OK ... so back a few pages, I had problems I thought were with a rogue app or perhaps a corrupt internal memory card. So after my fresh wipe and flashover Friday night, it's been running for well over 24 hours, and no problems yet. Still fast, no FCs. Prior attempts would always crap out within a day, easily.

So I'm going to start introducing apps, a couple at a time, in the hopes of narrowing down which one is causing the problem. It's also possible, of course, since I'm not really stressing the phone at all, running literally NOTHING on top of Nils' v1.5 distribution, with minimal homescreen widgets, even, that I just haven't had the phone try to access the data at the corrupt bit in that time.

We'll see. If it's an app, I'll be sure to report which one causes problems, so hopefully other people can avoid this. It's really tedious to troubleshoot as you just have to let things run until they die, and then you're in for a decent chunk of time manually setting your phone back up.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] omniatic:
Glad it's going better. Words of advice: if Market tells you there's an update for Superuser, don't update it. It borks everything up. Also, don't update Flash. You don't need it. Oh, and Tiny's 10/8 kernel works great on 3.5.

Good Luck,

Go Brewers,

Go Packers

...Sorry... I was on the phone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] punman:
Interesting that Flash and Superuser were both flagged "Automatic Update" on a fresh install, though I suppose that info might be tied to my google account. I honestly don't remember checking them but it could have been a year ago when I first got the phone.

Maybe that was (part of) the problem. Doh.

Go Brewers.

Don't care about Packers, its still baseball season. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
The choice of auto does come from your account. However, many of the defaults are also set by the developer. The first time you uncheck it it stays that was in your account.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] omniatic:
Another app I found annoying was Amazon Appstore. Kept restarting every time I killed it. Didn't need it so out it went.

Uninstalled updates to SU in Market and all's well again.

...Sorry... I was on the phone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] punman:
Unfortunately, I have quite a few pay apps that I got for free on Amazon's free app of the day special, and they won't run without the app installed and authenticated. It will make me sad if I have to leave that one off, but I guess that's the price of phone stability. It's nothing I can't live without, but it's again annoying.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] omniatic:
Hey, try letting it run. If it fouls things up you'll know right away. I just hate it when I find apps running when they aren't supposed to. Might not be a problem, but it bugged me.

...Sorry... I was on the phone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Trapshooter37:
So I have been running this 1.5 Rom since release initially it was fast and no issues. I did a flash over. Now I get phone calls where it rings twice and I miss the call, normally 4 rings. When I hit power button and screen comes on there is some delay in unlocking the phone, the unlock ring hangs. I have done a superuser update. How do I undo an update? All I get is uninstall. I think most of these laggy issues have come from the superuser update.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] omniatic:
If you updated through Market it should give you the option to uninstall updates in the Market. Check in my apps and see if it's listed there, and one button should say uninstall updates. After you do remove them, reboot, and every app which needs SU will ask for permission again. Don't know if that's the problem, but you can try it. I also ran Fix Permissions in ROM Manager just in case.

...Sorry... I was on the phone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Trapshooter37:
Don't get the option to uninstall updates only uninstall. I guess u could do that and then add it again.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Great Offender:
Learned the hard way about superuser. Fresh install went to s**t after the update. What a disaster. Would have been nice to know at 2am.

Others should take note!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] punman:
The uninstall button will uninstall updates if you updated an app that was in the initial install. So, yes, you should hit that uninstall button.

Great Rom 160 mb free!! For all the beats non believers put house party by meek mills with beats turned on...crazyyy

[Droid Incredible Android Development] Trapshooter37:
Okay unistalled updates for superuser, wiped cache and dalvik three times and fixed permissions. Phone still acting screwy, maybe I'll reflash the Rom. I really don't want to do a full wipe, setting up phone is a pain in the ass.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] punman:
You need to figure out whether it's more of a pain in the ass for the phone to "act screwy" all the time, or just bite the bullet and wipe it and then set it up one more time.

Because it won't be fixed until you do. Been through this, it sucks, but it's working great now after identifying a couple problem apps. The new superuser app (if thats what the problem was really) apparently messes things up SO BADLY that you are out of luck unless you full wipe. Sorry.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mulsifer:
I just checked my apps in the market to make sure it wasn't set to auto update and it shows Super User is not installed, which is odd since I run a few apps that require SU. I guess that's a good sign the update is not installed.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Great Offender:
+1

You can undo the update, wipe cache and dalvik so hard the phone gets a rash and it won't matter. Once it's done, your done!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Trapshooter37:
So basically follow the instructions from the first 3 post. Also flash the ota gingerbread then flash this hopefully this will cover my ass. **** this sucks but your right get it done and it'll be awesome.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kioshi:
I've downloaded version 1.5, and although it says dsp manager removed due to conflicts w/ beats audio....

if i try to enable beats, it has a FC for music app all the time when playig music.

I have not set permissions yet in recovery mode yet....would that be the probable cause?

Other than that, i have my phone set to smartassV2 and have not ran into FC for anything else yet....

Using also HTC Bliss mod. Love this rom considering i came from a CM7 and have been using it for a while now...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jamor414:
Nils - nobody knows what format mount means in your instructions you need to clarify.

I have installed many roms without hickups, all full wipes.

This one can't even get past the flash screen and I gave both tries an hour. There is something seriously wrong with this rom.

I'm definitely moving on to something that actually works.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Format system in mounts means just that "format system in mounts". Pretty clear since you are already in recovery.

Simple instructions that it sounds like you didn't follow since there is nothing wrong with the rom so it must not be right for you.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mcfarlan:
There is nothin wrong with the rom, it is one of the best 3.5 that we have right now and most people do know what that means.

1. Boot into Recovery

2. Select 'mounts and storage'

3. Select 'format /system'

You are good to go....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nascarrunner:
Haha this thread is not a help thread for one thing. And 2 he don't have the instructions on how to flash a ROM. Get over your self and use the xda search if u don't know how to flash a ROM. Just food for thought....

Nils keep keepin on man/woman! Lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BBEgo:
This Rom seems to boot for everybody but you. Time to maybe rethink your method?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jcwulf:
Here someone who knows what format mount means: in recovery go to "mounts and storage" and choose format system...

ALL of nils roms work just fine if you follow directions...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cscimmia:
times eleventy billion! I have installed 20 or 30 versions of 5 or 6 ROMs and **** started going sour a Month or so ago. I went back to stock a couple weeks ago just so I could have a phone that worked without rebooting all the time. Read Nils instructions for still, still, still, having trouble and decided to go straight for that approach for my first install of this ROM. Been running it since Friday and haven't had any trouble.

And by the way... this is the first time I've seen Outlook tasks and HTC notes in a ROM and I freaking love it! Feature wise... my 1.5 YO Dinc is better than my 1.5 week old Jetstream right now thanks to Nils! :beer:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] androg421:
The iPhone 4S is out. Just turn it on.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] answerman:
No reason for that sort of language. Be nice ;)

BTW Nils... finally moved from your 3.0 to 3.5 tonight. Nice stuff. I'm Incredibly happy (see what I did there?) to see the checkboxes back in the HTC mail app for selecting a bunch of emails at once.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] shorty1993:
Did everything change between 3.0 & 3.5? Meaning as in system apps. Have all my 3.0 apps that were themed already & don't want to throw a wrench by just swapping apk files. No big deal if I have to tear them apart & swap all the images again but would be nice not to. Finally got the quick settings images changed. Hope u don't mind NilsP. Just needed something personal & to pass the time.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] HOOKEDONDROID:
Why do people like this come into a thread like this that have no comprehension of what's being discussed and ruin a completely productive thread?

Educate yourself (ask questions) about your phone (clockwork recovery) then come and post useful topics/ideas/statements that will better this Rom and the community.

Ignorant statements like this drive devs away from xda, and piss off other users.

Don't speak for others about things you, yourself don't understand.

Hundreds of people have installed this Rom, and only those who didnt follow instructions to a T have had issue.

Most people here will help if you ask a question, even one that has been asked before.

Oh and I uninstalled superuser updates and all issues have cleared up. Thank you to whoever figured that out :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hitch_Itch:
Nobody knows, or you dont know, Big difference, if you need help. just ask, dont assume I dont know about formatting mounts.

And if you are moving on, Dont go away mad, Just go away!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Sorry, everything is very different going from 3.0 to 3.5
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thebasuke:
Is anyone else getting superuser force closes? I fixed permissions and still get them.. help!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hitch_Itch:
If you updated SU, you need to uninstall the update, it screws it up. look back a few pages, it was just talked about with others having the same issue
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thebasuke:
Thanks.. worked perfectly...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hitch_Itch:
Glad it worked out for ya, Enjoy!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
It seems the updates to SU only like to be built into the ROM I just compiled with the latest version and it was fine. Must be something to do with the fixes he is trying to introduce with the binary requirements or something.

SO, don't take the update. It works fine as is any way.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Neo:
NilsP, I just wanted to say real quick that, although it doesn't mean much coming from someone like me, I am really impressed at just how supportive you are of all the q and a's you so swiftly respond to with your rom! I'm subscribed to a handful of threads and although other Devs also do a good job responding to problems, it's as if you're on-call for them 24 hours a day! I haven't seen such over-dedication before to a rom and it's users. Bravo sir and they were right to re-consider your rec. dev. status
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hitch_Itch:
+10 , Nil's is Totally committed to his community
[Droid Incredible Android Development] punman:
But now it bugs me that SU is on the "Updates" list in My Apps. :)

Oh well, I'll deal with it. I think that was causing ALL my problems, seriously. It updated itself after every new flash until I finally caught it before it ran the update and disabled automatic updating. Sheesh. Never thought something I checked a year ago would come back to haunt me.

Funny, too, that it took like almost a full day before things started going nuts and FC'ing all the time.

I even posted a while ago about how installing apps from the Market would lag the phone for 45-60 seconds, that's gone too. Amazing that one little app would cause so many problems.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] omniatic:
Bugs me, too. Same with Adobe Flash Player. Did you have any other apps that really screwed things up? It might be helpful to list them for those who want to avoid future headaches when installing or updating.

...Sorry... I was on the phone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BBEgo:
Weird, I'm not having any problems with the SU update. Mine went off without a hitch.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Neo:
give it a day ;) it's a mole
[Droid Incredible Android Development] punman:
I haven't completely reinstalled the 20 or so apps that I had on the phone when it was suffering from problems. I think Google Voice causes the Phone app to hang and FC/Wait on reboot once in a while, but I just hit "wait" and it figures itself out in a minute or two.

I've got a couple more to go that I'm going to do one at a time and let the phone cook for a day between each one just to make sure. I'm trying to avoid having to reinstall the Amazon Appstore, I don't think any of the rest of my apps require it. We'll see on that one, that would be annoying if I have to buy something twice to get off that system. :/
[Droid Incredible Android Development] shorty1993:
Knew the few that I looked they were but figured asking was much quicker than going thru all of them. Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
If you have titanium backup there is an option to detach from market so it wont show in my apps. Just long press the app for the option.

Auto-Rotate/G-Sensor Calibration loss in 3D mode

Auto-Rotate/G-Sensor Calibration loss in 3D mode

This is one bug that, while not a show-stopper, doesn't seem to be getting much attention. I dunno, maybe it's just a small number people experiencing it. Nils, I know you said you couldn't duplicate it.

Usually, a G Sensor Cal fixes it, but something happens after a bit and G Sensor crashes or something.

I'm doing a fresh install right now, following your instructions to the letter. Hopefully this'll go away.

Anybody else having this problem?

3G Radio Drops

Happy Monday guys. I flashed 1.5 over 1.4 last week upon release and everything's been fine. Also updated Tiny's Kernel to the latest version and have SetCPU running smartass v2. The phone itself is fine performance wise with minor lags.

I also seem to be lucky and haven't had any issues with SU or Flash since they updated a couple days ago, sorry to see it's causing headaches for some (didn't read the forum beforehand since I let most of my stuff update automatically).

However, since Saturday, the radio has resumed to dropping out once a day until I hot restart as it was doing back in the 3.0 rom around v1.5 I believe it was. While easily remedied, it's HIGHLY frustrating when it happens at inopportune times as was the case on Sat. evening when we were trying to get somewhere downtown in DC which sucks when driving and you're waiting several mins for it to restart.

Anyone else seeing this and have any words of wisdom perhaps?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] androg421:
Same here. No problems with SU Update
[Droid Incredible Android Development] punman:
Well, I haven't proven decidedly that SU is the sole culprit for the issues I was having, but others have reported rampant FCs after updating, and that's certainly what I was seeing. Like I said, I'm still installing apps and letting them sit for a bit to see if they misbehave. If I get through them all without problems, I'll update SU and see if that immediately triggers the instability.

Network error

Every time I try to sync all, I get an error saying that a network error occurred. Is this a problem with the radio I installed? I updated the radio to the 10.07.07 in post 2.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hitch_Itch:
Im using that radio and have been for all the 3.5 ver and i have not had issues.

As I understand it, the same radio doesnt work best for all, it more a location thing, some radios work better in certain areas and worse in other areas.

Im in Pa.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ianPhillips1:
The only issue I have is contacts and android.process.acore are force closing. Wiped it started fresh still doing it, I will keep plugging away to find the issue.

For those popping in to read up this is the only issue I have had to date. I run various scripts and tweaks so IMHO it is something I did along the way. Getting ready to take it back to stock and go from their.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] kioshi:
try dialing *228*

Im using radio 10.07.07 as well and usually from time to time it will say "no service".

The music player FC on me but not with the Beats Audio this time. It gave me a wallpaper screen and i had to battery pull.

I'll give it another month or so to see if it resolves those problems.

I hope it doesnt give me trouble in Honolulu next week haha.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BBEgo:
Ok I've done a complete wipe install of 1.5, and it is much more stable and faster. I didn't use Titanium to do anything but restore Angry Birds, Kindle, and Tapatalk. Everything else was restored via Google.

Only bug that lingers so far is loss of G sensor when 3D is enabled, so I lose auto rotate.

Carousel moves very smoothly, and widgets are all very snappy. I'm using Smartass v2, OC'd to 1075.

Great stuff, Nils!

Is anyone else having the 3d issue?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kageska:
I'm in UT so that might make a difference. I'll give some others a shot and see if that fixes it. Thanks for the quick reply.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] omniatic:
3d stopped working for me after switching kernels on 1.3. G-sensor calibration always aborts. Compass doesn't read correctly either.

...Sorry... I was on the phone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] earendurh:
Thanks for reminding me; I forgot to do this after flashing 1.5 /noob facepalm. I'll report if it continues to flake out after this. Thanks again!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bellj949:
I did have this issue as well but I was able to resolve it.

Open the Facebook app, go to the home screen, then click Menu and select Setting - Sync Contacts and then Remove Facebook data and then click okay. Then go back to contacts and make sure all the Facebook data has been cleared. You can then go back to Sync Contact and select the option you want (Sync all or Sync with existing contacts) and then wait a couple minutes and all the pictures should be loaded then. Or at least that is what worked for me.

I did try going to Settings - Accounts & Sync - Facebook and removed the checkmark by Sync contacts and then re-add it, but that method didn't do anything for me. But doing it through the Facebook app got all my pictures loaded.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Glad I don't have these problems HaHa

Good to see you all helping eachother. Warms my heart..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thebasuke:
Loving the Tom mainly just beats lol.. but one thing that bugs me is the lag.. on the homescreens there is absolutely no lag at all, but the music app lags constantly, Facebook, and multiple other apps lag as well I love sense just hate lag :( great job nils
[Droid Incredible Android Development] xdadevelopers-user:
The only two things keeping from using this ROM on a regular basis are:

Terrible video recording/playback - playback on PC is no better.

General lagginess - if the video worked better I'd probably live with this

I did some comparisons of the video I took when on 3.5 with the smooth videos I've taken on stock and other roms. The codecs for both the audio and video are completely different. I suspect that it would be fairly easy to get 3.5 to record using the same formats and that this might fix the problem. I just haven't taken any time to further understand the issue.

One question, has anyone attempted to get beats working on earlier ROMs - like Business Gingersense v3.0? Is it even theoretically possible? Any ideas on what would be involved?

Thanks,

-xdadevelopers-user
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Trapshooter37:
So I have been reluctant to do a fresh install. I have a good backup version 1.4 so I restored my phone to that version. I have disabled Su update and will now flash 1.5. I'll report back but I hope this avoids a whole wipe and fresh install.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Good luck. Let us know how it goes.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BBEgo:
Hey Nils,

Some browser-based videos crash the browser, while YouTube app works.

Ever encounter that?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] omniatic:
If you updated flash player through the Market, uninstall updates. If necessary, remove flash player and install the one Nils posted a few pages back.

...Sorry... I was on the phone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I posted this above somewhere
[Droid Incredible Android Development] omniatic:
Nils,

Are you running 1.5 and one of tiny's kernels? Does the 3D animation work? Will your G-sensor calibrate? Since I've done flashovers since 1.3, I'm wondering if a full wipe and flash would fix them. Or maybe wait till 1.6. Any thoughts?

...Sorry... I was on the phone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Trapshooter37:
N.F.G. back to your instructions.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] xxxdc5:
Doing this in hopes that my ROM will run more smoothly. I'm not sure but I think I might have narrowed my problem down to just having too many app... I mean I don't have THAT many, but 60ish apps coupled with the size of a sense ROM... could that possibly be the culprit behind my speed issues?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Neo:
more room to breath in system folder and also in data/app = less lag. plus how much load is on the cpu ea whatever and however many apps are currently running :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BBEgo:
Crap... That flash apk didn't fix browser-based video...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] shorty1993:
Excuse me if I have overlooked this somewhere. I am getting force closes with beats. Cleaned cash & fixed permissions but no change. I will try a fresh flash if nobody has any thoughts.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] HOOKEDONDROID:
Do you have dsp manager installed? If so, uninstall and it should fix your issues.
