If you know of anyone struggling with battery life, feel free to send them my way.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
I flashed the 11/2 kernel, and had the same issue. In addition, when I tried to turn on the GPS, I got a FC on HTC sense. I reflashed the the 10/15 kernel and all is well. I'm going to try the 10/23 kernel and see if that improves things.

---------- Post added at 10:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 AM ----------

Which kernel are you using?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Definitely, I will keep that in mind.

Shameless pitch: you guys see that pretty little twitter logo down there? You should all click on it and follow me on twitter :) I'm really awesome and I talk about all kinds of important, world changing topics. Also, I usually discuss updates and projects I am working on there first, so if you want to stay ahead of the curve...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
I need someone to flash the kernel and report the output of dmesg. My theory is something is not being updated when the kernel is flashing but it doesn't happen with all ROMs. I think it's connected to a combination of the ext4 data mod plus the symlink of /system/lib to /data.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jpzsports:
You're 11-2 kernel is working great for me so far. Seems to vary by person.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
To verify if my theory is related to rom version or ext mods. Are you using any and which version of McTwist?

My theory is setup related if it works for some on this roms.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jpzsports:
I'm using McTwist 1.1.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
You're right. The wifi module can't get copied to system/lib/modules because system/lib is a symlink to the data partition. I had McD manually put it in the right place when he first baked the mod in.

The reason it worked when he went back to 10/23 was because the bcm module was the 10/23 one and never got replaced.

***I'm mobile
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cjbeau:
# dmesg | grep bcm4329

dmesg | grep bcm4329

#

Flashed the 11/2 kernel again and then ran the code as instructed. Looks like it didn't report anything, unless I did something wrong...:confused:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gotbst05:
Tiny's latest and greatest
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
No, you gotta manually load it. I had to find my old instructions and review it. It looked like it should work but there's a command before it. See below:

insmod /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko
dmesg | grep bcm4329

Alternate step 2 if the above dmesg does not return anything other than an echo of itself.

dmesg | busybox grep bcm4329
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Someone that's having the wifi issues with Tiny's 11/2 kernel, please try the attached one. I've modified the installer to put the wifi module in the right place for McTwist.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cjbeau:
ok, sorry for the misunderstanding; I'm learning this as I go :rolleyes:

here is what I get now:

# insmod /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko
insmod /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko
insmod: init_module '/system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko' failed (File exists)
#
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Try toggling wifi on then off. If it's enabled but error, try toggling it off, then on then off again then try that command.

Maybe the error is different but try the above.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cjbeau:
I'm thinking I may have another problem...

The toggle does not work. It reads error all the time. If I try to toggle it on, it quickly blips turning on, then goes back to error and does not turn on. Seems I cannot even enable the wifi.

---------- Post added at 09:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:18 PM ----------

Flashed this version, but WiFi still showing error and will not come on.

I'm leaning towards a fresh ROM flash and then trying the new kernel again.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Just curious, are you on an N router? Try on a non N router.

Actually, try Jermaine's zip and see if it works for you.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cjbeau:
Running N router, mixed N/G mode. Tried G only and no change.

Flashed the zip from Jermaine but it is still the same. Seems like wifi does not want to enable at all...

I'm leaning toward doing a fresh flash of the ROM and then flashing the kernel to see if that fixes it...may be something corrupted on my phone...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
He tried it and it didn't work. :( I'm downloading the whole rom to test my zip against it. If there's an error in the updater-script, I'll fix it and repost. The problem is definitely that the bcm4329.ko module they have in /system/lib/modules is still the one from your 10/23 ported kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
I think I will leave this to the experts lol. *in mom voice* "Now be sure to thank the nice Mr. Tiny and Mr. Jermaine for helping us all out."
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cjbeau:
Most definitely many thanks to all of you!! I greatly appreciate the effort the devs in the incredible forum put in. I have been lurking here for a long time and you guys are awesome! Everyone is always willing to help and very patient.

I probably would have moved on to another phone already if it weren't for the devs here!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
I know we just need to change how we mount /data. As the symlink works in recovery, if you mount data properly first it will work.

Yeah, that was my theory but I was just trying to prove that it's the problem. You should get a version magic error but dmesg did not pick it up though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
It was the way I was trying to extract it. To fix it, I just created a /data/system.lib/modules folder, put the bcm in there and added that to the root of the zip. Changed the updater-script to extract data to /data and it worked fine. Your original script mounts data before system, so I don't think the symlink was working right in recovery.

This should work to give you Tiny's latest 11/2 kernel, with Wi-Fi on McTwist (Very Nice Rom BTW!)

Enjoy!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cjbeau:
Thanks! I will try this as soon as I can. I found I am having some problems with clockwork mod recovery and sorting through those now. :eek:

Thanks again!:)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
You're welcome! Ok. Let us know. I tested it and it worked perfectly for me on McTwist.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Thanks so much for putting this together man, huge help to the users (I hope you guys show your appreciation ;)) Haha is the first time you have flashed a McRom? Glad you enjoyed it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
I flashed McSense before. :) My McTwist cherry got broken tonight. Haha
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Haha I hope that you were gentle to her. I will always prefer McSense (especially in its present state), but I am happy with where McTwist is going.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
It should work in recovery. My script used to work for synergy which setup with /data/system.lib. Maybe certain cwm versions work better here? I don't know. I'd rather have the updater-script work for roms with /data/system.lib/modules instead of modifying it and having two versions.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cjbeau:
Just to follow up....

I finally narrowed the problem down to CWM. I had an older version, and it had not given me problems until now:mad: I didn't realize it immediately, but the last 2 nandroids I made were corrupted along with CWM. I got CWM updated, reinstalled the ROM and installed the original 11/2 kernel and there are no issues. WiFi works!!

I hope I didn't cause you guys too many headaches or anything like that, and I apologize if I did.

You were all great and I enjoy your work and assistance tremendously.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
YAY!!!!10char
[Droid Incredible Android Development] CUBENSIS:
Both of those are reasons I want photos to emmc. In addition, emmc writes are faster than to sdcard (AFAIK), so recording videos to sd could lead to skips or a lower frame rate. Does this happen in reality? I don't know.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tjrocks91:
love this rom so far!! can you post the stock rosie without the launchkey remap if you have time?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bob24260:
No issues here whatsoever.Running smoother than my silk boxers.....:p
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jpzsports:
YES!!! I've been waiting for a new ROM and couldn't decide between the speed and stability of the stock ROMs or the features and the awesome lockscreen of the Sense 3.0 ROMs, but I wasn't really liking the slowness of those Sense 3.0 and 3.5 ROMs.

I'm currently still on Synergy. How does this ROM compare in terms of speed? I'm assuming features are pretty similar.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Yeah I probably can, but can I ask why lol? It doesn't really intrude in anyway and you can just set it back to personalize if you want to?

Here is the fix for emmc guys; wipe dalvik and flash via recovery. This should fix all problems you are having with emmc storage.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lssanjose:
I went senseless, but I like the enhanced feature set in Sense 2.1. This is good work
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lssanjose:
What problems are addressed?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Fixes apps such as camera, sound recorder, etc. not saving to internal storage.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dirtsky:
you know ive been a big Cyanogenmod user but im starting to miss sense. ive tried some of the new sense 3.0 roms but they are so sluggish. but ill give this one a shot.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JeffBea:
I would test update, but I save everything to SD card. I'm looking forward to your track ball wake!

One thing to put low on your fix list that I've noticed that auto brightness seems to adjust its self more that it needs to IMO. Maybe a tweek you could like into or maybe just my 42 year old eyes are failing me, lol. Great McJob so far!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Well I tested it in mine and it works perfectly, so no worries there. My first attempt at trackball wake FUBARed my phone lol so back to the drawing board, but I'll get it (hopefully). Hmm I can look into that, but not sure how I could change that.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JeffBea:
No problem if you can't. I've noticed in past roms other developer's made (couldn't tell you which one's) they where able to adjust the sensitivity some how.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] blcklab:
My wifi is disconnecting after the screen is off for a few minutes. I've never had this issue with any device or ROM. Reconnects after I unlock the phone.

Might be a coincidence but I think this started AFTER I flashed the emmc fix.

any thoughts?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Check your advanced WiFi settings for sleep or performance options
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Yeah, what Nils said. Make sure that your wifi sleep is set to "never" and that your performance settings aren't messing with it. The emmc fix should have nothing to do with it because that is just the mediaprovider.apk. Other than that, idk what to tell you.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] CUBENSIS:
NilsP and McD: out of curiosity, what is the change in mediaprovider.apk that fixes emmc? Got a link?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] blcklab:
Where might that be? I don't see that under wireless? On my Acer tablet the setting is there with wireless connections.

Thanks in advance.

never mind. Found it. I have never seen that setting before since it has never been an issue.

this ROM kicks serious a$$. VZW must hate you devs. I've never owned a phone a long as I've owned my Incredible.

Thanks. I guess the default was 15 minutes
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
Are there any themes for this? This rom is really fast mcdude!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lssanjose:
I noticed that, when I first ran it. It's probably the fastest Sense ROM I ran on my phone, thus far
[Droid Incredible Android Development] josh0426:
This is what Ive been waiting for.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jpzsports:
Just want to make sure before I do it: Is it now definitely safe to update superuser in the market?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Darn, I shoulda just tested your original zip against McTwist since I have CWM 5.0.2.0. Oh well.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] teddyastuffed:
quick question about procedure to properly flash the newest tiny kernal. the way ive been doing it is i flash the rom, restart, skip all setup, reboot to recovery, flash the kernal, reboot, then start using phone.

but im wondering, can you simply flash the rom then immediately flash the kernal before even restarting the phone the first time? does that interfere with the initial bootup setup?

i think ive heard different takes on this, some saying you should go step by step, some saying u can flash everything rom/kernal/ext4 related all at the beginning..

btw, really interested in your rom!! havent flashed yet, but sense 3.5 is just too sluggish for me. really looking to get my hands on something fast with some 3.0 goodies :)) thanks for all the hard work
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Yes, you can flash kernel immediately following the rom, without booting up.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] teddyastuffed:
alright, thanks jermaine!! flashing right now then :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Hey man, as long as you got it figured out that's what matters. Hope you can fully enjoy the rom now :)

Yes you definitely can, I have been running the latest version with updated binaries for over a week now with zero problems. It is safe.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] teddyastuffed:
Love the Rom!! Wow the speed with this Rom and tiny's latest kernal is amazing!! I did run into the mms issue on WiFi which for me is irrelevant since I rarely get or send mms, especially over 5mb on 3g. I also got that insufficient storage problem, but left the phone for about 30 minutes, came back, attempted to redownload the same thing I had tried the first time (xda premium -_- yes its the first thing I download) and it worked just fine.no reboot or anything. Haven't had the warning since. No FCs or anything. And I especially love the robonto font. Subtle but soooo pleasing to look at. Very well built Rom. Will b keeping as my daily certainly :)) thanks again
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
Unfortunately, it didn't work for me. First, I flashed your Mctwist kernel. It gave me the same error message. Then I updated my recovery to the latest and flashed the standard 11/2 (got error message), and finally your Mctwist version and got the error message. Any other suggestions. Thanks for your help everyone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Did you get an error in flashing or starting? If it's in loading can you try the steps to report the error I posted a couple pages back?

If the error is flashing something is not right and could you report the error in that case?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
The kernel installed when I flashed it on all occasions. The problem showed up when I went to settings, wireless & networks. Under wifi, it showed "errror." I tried to turn it on and off, but the error message remained.

I should have asked when you first posted the steps to report the error. How and where do you enter the information to get that report? I appreciate all the time and effort you, Jermaine and 00McD00 are taking on this issue. BTW, the 10/23 kernel is working fine. Thanks again.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Literally follow below:

Do this from terminal emulator or a shell using adb:

insmod /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko
dmesg | grep bcm4329

Report whatever output comes from these commands.

The line is a pipe symbol.

---------- Post added at 07:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:31 PM ----------

Nandroiding so I can flash this ROM and see if I can get to the bottom of the issue.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Please test mine too Tiny. I just had a brainstorm about your script. It mounts "data" FIRST. It should mount system first in order for /data/system.lib to be symlinked to /system/lib

Can't symlink /data/system.lib ->/system/lib if there is no /system mounted.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
ok, here is what i got:

I assume this means something to you. Thanks for your continued assistance.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
But the symlink exists on the filesystem so it shouldn't have to be created. Unless the failure is that data doesn't mount at all due to the filesystem being ext4?

However, it's still worth a try.

---------- Post added at 09:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:26 PM ----------

Yeah, that confirms my suspicions that the wifi module doesn't get updated when the kernel flashes.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cjbeau:
After reading this I went and looked...

The bcm4329 file in my system folder is dated Aug 1, while the one in your 11/2 kernel zip is dated OCT31. Looks like your suspicions were correct.

However, my wifi is working...:)

Hope this helps!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Maybe I should just update this with the kernel baked in and save all of this trouble lol I feel like that is the easiest solution.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Not a bad idea. I'm testing a change I made to the updater-script right now.

EDIT: I think I got it working.

I adb pulled the bcm4329.ko after flashing with the updated updater-script then checked the vermagic on the file using a hex editor and confirmed it's gingertiny-v2 so it should work.

EDIT 2: Connected to wifi just fine without doing anything funky. I just flashed McTwist 1.1 and then kernel after a full wipe and flashed in the same boot not wiping anything in between. Jermaine, you were right.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
I'm glad that you got it working.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
It sounds like you got it working. As a noob, I need a little more direction on what to do. It sounds like you reflashed the rom and then the kernel. What do I need to do to get this kernel working? Thanks again for all your help.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gotbst05:
McD,

Happy to report that I'm getting great battery life. New 1900mah battery, plus the SetCPU settings & Juice Defender. I used my phone nonstop yesterday & had 25% left at 2am.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jstrom23:
LOL, you all need to post a "noobs beware" for the thread title. Your knowledge of this stuff is really impressive.

Respect to the devs.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Thanks J!! :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Try the 11/6 kernel. It should be working there.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
Tiny, I flashed the 11/06; I was able to get to the lockscreen each time, but unfortunately each time I unlocked, I got HTC Sense (process.com .htc. launcher) errors. I couldn't get beyond this point and had to reboot. i went back to the 10/23 kernel for the time being.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
nandroid and try a reinstall with a full wipe. Then get a logcat. I don't know why people are having more issues when the new one. No voltage changes or overclocking?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
Thanks, Tiny. I was a step ahead of you. However, I decided on a fresh install of the rom and a reflash of of the 11/06. I'll let you know the results. I appreciate all of your assistance.

---------- Post added at 09:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:51 AM ----------

Edit: Reflashed rom and kernel. All is working well. I'll report back in a few days on performance and battery life. Thanks again for your time and efforts.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] netjetman:
I am running McTwist (great ROM) and the 11/02 kernel and it's snappy! Battery life seems better and hoping to watch a little closer.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] darcom1:
I like this Rom so far but the tv out does not work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dajmacd:
McD, any chance of getting an "alternate" build of the McTwist like you did for McSense? I'd love to try this out, but the ext4 mod doesn't play well with my recovery of choice (Ra).

Edit: Can I just unpack the .zip, remove ext4 mod folder and repack or do I need to edit a script in the package?

Edit2: nvm. Just unpacked a couple of rom zips for reference and that idea doesn't look viable.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] KrisPeezy:
Back to Mctwist with Tiny's 11/06 for now from Nils BGS 3.5

I need something stable for the next few days :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
I have been running this for 2-days now; everything works fine. I find SA2 more responsive then interactive. I have it set at 245 min, and 1.075 max with all HAVS at -50 from default. Battery life has been very good. Great work Tiny and thanks for all your help. Also great rom, McD.

I have been searching for hours on end. Is there a way to change the shortcut on the lockscreen to open a different app. I have go sms set as default messaging app but the shortcut always opens the htc messaging app.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] theguitarguy58:
I think you go into personalize>lock screen and you should be able to change the lock screen shortcuts to anything you'd prefer.

No, this is the Inc2 rom for the Inc1.
