I know GB came with an updated radio, However, a zip through CWR can't change your baseband version, that is done through Hboot. So, unless you've already changed the radio, not really sure what is making the signal better.

Also, just because you have a bar when you had none, or two bars when you had one, does not necessarily mean your signal is any different. Go to settings/about phone/network to view the actual signal. THAT, unlike the bars on the front tell you exactly what signal strength you have. since they are in negative numbers, the lower the number the better. 70-80 is a great signal. 90 and higher is a low signal.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jamala00:
This might be a stupid question, but what is the DTR.zip on the OTA? Do both need to be flashed?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] romsRfun:
You don't have to flash the dtr of you don't want to. It's an optional download.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jamala00:
What is the DTR file for then?

I flashed this ROM hoping my pandora skipping on 3G would be resolved, but it skips on this ROM also. Think I will just restore my backup of Jermaine's Stock+...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] {tpc}:
DTR = Data Throttle Remover or something like that.

On a different note, has anyone experienced the 1% battery mod going away after you flash the zoomy mod? I did this today and that is exactly what happened.

Doesn't matter much because I remembered I was going to use the htc battery widget which has a percent display on it, so no need for a duplicate for me, and I have the real estate for that widget.

Just thought I'd mention it in case there was something I missed or did wrong.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
Runnin great, just need pulldown menu, but not really necessary, thanks stang!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 318sugarhill:
DTR is data throttle removal. If you go over your limit, VZW will throttle you. This will remove the throttling ability. It has nothing to do with the performance of the Rom or anything like that. It's truly up to you if you want to install it or not.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] keyslapper:
Oh, the radio is part of the process, sure, but it's not the only one. For one thing, since I was getting 0 bars, but still received calls without drops or bad quality, I'm guessing part of the problem wasn't really the signal, or even the radio (necessarily), just the representation of signal strength on the status bar. As far as more reliable data connections, the radio only passes the signal on, it doesn't put the data on the phone.

So, with almost the whole system being tweaked, I'd say there are a lot of places this could have been improved.

After all, just because you hook a firehose to your garden sprinkler, doesn't mean the water will come through the sprinkler any faster. :D

Cheers!

Someone in here said they debloated, but how do you do that? I cant seem to be able to remove the bloatware
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cmlusco:
Use a root file explorer to go to /system/app and delete, rename, or move the apk files you dont want.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jpradley:
I really like the MIUI top-bar battery indicator! Any chance of incorporating that one?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 318sugarhill:
Since MIUI is not an open source Rom.......I doubt it. Plus, WildStang is no longer on the thread. He left a link where you can message him.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
At the moment that would be impossible. Although MIUI is based on AOSP, they have closed the source for their UI. Basically making it so it would be unlawful to reverse engineer that battery tweak so as to port it to any other roms. There is also the tiny little problem as well. MIUI is AOSP and this Rom is Sense UI based. Mods usually dont play nicely between the two.

EDIT: Thanks Sug, you beat me too it. I just had to answer when I seen that question. I don't want anyone getting in trouble.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wdfowty:
Well, seeing as they are actively, and knowingly, violating the gpl with their kernel source (read: lack of kernel source), it's probably ok. It'll just be one hell of an adventure getting it incorporated. Anyone up for the challenge? lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Just because their doing it wrong doesn't mean I can or will. I like to play clean. I think you know that about me man.

But yea, I know what you mean about their source. For shame.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] masully1984:
Or titanium backup

CM7 nightly
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Especially for those that don't know what can safely be removed yet. Titanium allows you to freeze apps (Disable) without removing them. That way if something goes wrong you can just unfreeze what you froze.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
I assume I need to move all the bloat apps back after removing them from the previous OTA?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RMarkwald:
Hey 'Stang,

FYI - The native screen shot method and remapping Rosie's right key using LaunchKey work great on the 4.08...you may already know this, thought I'd share!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rlacrossjr:
All of the stock+ mods work. Think his main support is at rootwiki per previous post.

How do you know its not doing anything, does it give an error or freeze or what. What recovery version are you using?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
[Gift] Screenshot Activator

Here ya go guys, I went ahead and made a flashable that will activate native screenshot for you on this rom. Just simply drop the flashable on your sd card and flash through clockwork recovery. Don't worry about wiping anything. Just flash it. Please note that after flashing the mod your phone will take an excessive amount of time to boot on the first boot after the flash. For me it took about 3 minutes. This is only on the first boot so every boot afterwards will be normal.

You would take a screenshot by pressing and holding down the power button and tapping the home softkey and then releasing the power button. It will pop up a system notice stating the screenshot was taken and where it is stored. To view your screenshot, simply go to your gallery and select all pictures. Your screenshot will be at the very end.

Please note that if it appears to hang after you have performed the actions to take a screenshot just give it a couple seconds. Its processing and the hang is normal occasionally.

Download Screenshot Activator

Enjoy guys!

Ok latest cw is good. Again what makes you think that the wipe options are doing nothing?

[Droid Incredible Android Development] 318sugarhill:
How has tiny's kernel worked for you, and is it today's release? I'm using Stang's kernel and all is well. The only weird thing I'm getting is the boot animation is on hyper drive. Its like it is stuck on fast forward. I've read this happens if you over clock, but I've never over clocked. Just wondering if a kernel change would fix this, or if it is phone specific.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] evilstewie23:
Do you have fastboot enabled in settings, aplications

sent from my sexy Slcd Droid Incredible. not dinc or D-inc that just sounds stupid.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 318sugarhill:
No, fast boot is not enabled. It's really weird. I've changed the boot animation form the stock one, and it still runs super fast.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] evilstewie23:
That's weird but I guess u can't complain that its fast right

In the Mounts & Storage section, it only wipes boot and does nothing for the rest.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
Just wanted to say that this works fine on the newest (4.08) OTA for me as well.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
How is everyone doing today? Good I hope :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thevoiceless:
Definitely. The weekend before Thanksgiving break and I get to spend it playing with my phone :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ezegm:
Because they aren't when I click format system or any other it shows nothing and just goes back to the menu. It doesn't show like when it says "formatting boot"...done" or whatever I've tried multiple times wiping all the said items and it stays on the first boot screen or boots back into recovery
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Yea thaat is kinda weird. Just incase did you try to reinstall recovery through rom manager again yet? Thats weird its not wiping those.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RMarkwald:
Great Stang, I am getting great battery life so far, stock except for Jermaine's ext4, native screenshot, remappable right Rosie... Pretty surprised so far.

There are other options in cw to wipe system. You should see that when you go into mounts. It's an option you physically have to check.

Have you checked the directions on op page? Just curious. Seems like you missed a step.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RMarkwald:
You're right, my bad... Just went through flashing without verifying that one.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] romsRfun:

It worked for me too! Another great mod. I missed the quick settings for a minute. Haha.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MACHEK:
Just wanted to tell you guys I'm way excited about the battery life! I went from 10 hours on Froyo to today having to charge after 29 hours and 24 minutes!!! I didn't change the kernel yet, hopefully the new one is as good or better!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] serpentine009:
Is there any reason why this ROM is almost double the size of the official OTA? Just curious...is it because it is rooted?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cmlusco:
No its because the official ota was a patch from 4.06.605.3 to 4.08.605.2.

So this rom is basicly both of them merged together.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Well a rom can't be just 8mb, lol. Guess i'm not sure what you mean?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Alton (Halo 2):
So there is nothing broke and came straight from Verizon ota right?

In that case I'm flashing just to see wat changed :D

Ugh that hurts my feelings that you could think that I would possibly post a broken OTA rom. Sad panda is sad:(
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Alton (Halo 2):
Sorry :( :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MicroMod777:
Official OTA was a small patch for the whole ROM. Here we got the whole ROM baked for us for easy flashing!:)

Tried searching for this first and found no one else having reported any issues. I am having problems with music players. Nothing but the stock player is seeing the music stored on the emmc.

Anyone else having this problem? I am using Tiny's latest kernel 11/19/11
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 318sugarhill:
Dude, read the original post. No where does it say install through Rom manager. Rom manager wipes only cache and data. There are a whole slew of things you need to wipe.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Alton (Halo 2):
Pics doesn't show on emmc !
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
I just formatted eMMC and SD Card and then made sure camera was set to phone storage. I took two pictures. And guess what? They do show up.

Don't know what's wrong with yours.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BenHolliday:
Ok, Been reading and reading and reading and yet again, psyched myself out.

Would like to confirm something and get suggestion.

Will this wipe out all personalization and set it back to stock? If it does wipe it out would doing a TB of current apps and data back/reinst work?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Yes, do a titanium back up of all your apps before you proceed. You must wipe to install this rom.

Sweet!

So far these mods work...

Quick settings

latest tiny kernel

ext4 mod

3g turbo

and now honeycomb mod?! woohoo!

I love these little tweaks that make this Rom original.

Just an idea sir, what do you think of packing all of the mods together with your latest and greatest big red OTA Rom? (that work of course) ;) *not including the DTR, cos not everybody needs it. I don't see a difference unless I'm in a 4g zone and/or nearby a tower. I'm still on a grandfathered plan w/unlimited data.*

[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
I wanted to say thank you to everyone using my stuff and to everyone who has donated so far. In honor of you guys, I've placed a donators list in my OP and will be keeping it updated as more people donate. I've also done the same thing over on rootzwiki.com as well. Also for everyone that has not noticed yet, I did put a donate link in my signature. Its real light. So you have to look kinda hard but I'm also keeping a toll of how close I am to my goal so far. I am not asking anyone to donate, however I do truly appreciate every little bit. Thanks guys.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
I'm not sure, I just checked mine and it seems to be working fine. You might remove the clock from the Homescreen and then put it back and then go back into weather to try it again. And also make sure you have allowed weather to sync in softkey menu/settings/Accounts & sync.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Great Offender:
No one else is having problems with this? Pics save and can be read from emmc just can't find a music player, besides stock, that reads emmc??? Want to make sure it's just me before starting over from scratch.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cmlusco:
I know this dosent really answer your question but why dont you just use google music. I dont know if it sees nusic on emmc or not but it dosent natter, it stores all your music on googles servers. That way you can access your music from your phone with out using any space on your phone, and you can also listen to your music from any pc. Also its free to store up to 20,000 songs.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MACHEK:
Yeah that worked. Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Ok, because when the question was first brought up it kinda seemed like somebody was saying reads from eMMC wasn't working at all. Wish people would be more clear from the get go so I don't have to go back and test and reprove every little thing.

But to answer your question, the stock music player works fine and if that doesn't work for you there is always PowerAmp Pro. Its not free though. But it does a real good job at managing folders and can read from eMMC.

NEXT TIME GUYS LETS BE CLEAR OF OUR INTENTIONS PLEASE
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Cool glad it did, lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Great Offender:
Thank you for your reply. The original post read:

Tried searching for this first and found no one else having reported any issues. I am having problems with music players. Nothing but the stock player is seeing the music stored on the emmc.

Would it have been more clear if I typed it in ALL CAPS

Would Power AMP make the difference when Winamp, Doubletwist, Anrdoid Music player, Google music player 4.............don't work? All having worked on every other rom.

I like the rom, I thank you for the rom and thank you for your support but I just don't understand how I could make it any clearer?

Maybe my frustration is showing?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Oooooh ok, I get it now. I totally missed your post. Im sorry bud. I thought you mighta been piggy backing off of this comment for some reason:

I just went back through all the comments and there is a bunch that weren't showing up for some reason, its really weird.

So I guess I'll just keep pretending like I'm tuff because this is awkward and I don't know what to do. Stop yelling at me and I'll stop yelling at you :D

I haven't tested PowerAmp, but I've had good luck with it in the past. I would test but I don't have any music anywhere atm on my whole phone. I just formatted everything last night.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
I think once we get an official RUU for this update a lot of these little nitpicky issues will be resolved.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MACHEK:
What does ext4, and 3g turbo do? Where can I find them and do they adversely effect the battery? And how is tiny kernel different in comparison to the one on the OP. Thanks everyone for all the info.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Great Offender:
Not being "tough", I'm too old for that I'm just frustrated.

Yes, Poweramp works. I spent the $5 because it is one of the only ones that does. It allows you to specify the folder your music is in and for some reason the majority of the others don't see the folder.

Either way it was worth the $5. So I'll call a truce to a war that wasn't a war. Did my time and didn't get killed so I wouldn't want to snuffed out over a rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MACHEK:
Wildstang, I really wanted to take the time to thank you for this post, along with everyone who has put their 2 cents in. I originally went from a windows phone, and doing all kinds of mods, to reading on various websites about how to mess around with Android. Personally after rooting, I guess I got a little overwhelmed with all the info out there, and everything being in different places, and all the various comments everywhere else and just didn't want to mess with it. Especially since when I asked certain questions (even after reading) some people on xda, just seemed like jerks.

However, when you posted this, and with all the usefull knowledge in here, LITERALLY EVERYTHING that I needed to know regarding flashing a rom was in here. I finally got the confidence and knowledge after reading all the important imformation that you all posted and realized how easy it was after. I just wanted to thank you and everyone else who answered any of my questions, because you all did so without attitude, and without making people feel like idiots (aside from those who asked questions that were answered two pages prior, because those people should feel like idiots, and any attitudes towards them is warranted) :)

Thanks again for helping a newb on android. I might stick with this for a while because I'm loving the update, HUGE battery improvement and just liking it in general. Maybe I'll mess around with others too seeing as how easy it was, who knows. Thanks :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BenHolliday:
Ok, followed the steps to the letter and discounting the slow seconds that felt like hours on first boot, everything went perfect. Runs great and figured I'd load your kernel as the first ever, and it loaded with no problem. Got everything that I want back just fine.

However as fine as everything works, I cannot get the mods to work at all. Flashed them in CWM as instructed but they don't show and I see no settings to change for them. Am I missing something or do I have to load a custom ROM as I've always been too nervous to jump in with both feet.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
No you would basically just put whatever mod you want onto your sd card and flash it in recovery just like you did for the kernel. What mod/mods did you try?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lazysleepyboi:
if you're talking about the percentage mod, i had the same problem. Just flash it twice and you should be fine
