Here is what I noticed

1 loading apps takes forever compared to JB. The Facebook app for example wouldn't show images no matter how many times I reload.

The same app is snappy and loads so fast with JB.

2 the play store acts weirdly. When I search for an app, it takes so long to give results. Once I click one of the results and try to install the app, I have to wait until the demo pictures, the description the reviews and the more by developer sections load before the app starts downloading. It's like the Play store in Gb fulfills one request at a time and loads the user selected action the latest.

3 the YouTube app took forever to sign me in and once I tried loading some videos it just kept spinning and spinning until I got irritated waiting and closed it.

There are so many things that I can list but time doesn't allow... Those mentioned are just the top ones I remember.

I thought the. data/data partition gets wiped during a full wipe? If so I shouldn't be experiencing issues with it. Right?

I'm on. Cm 10.1 and df of. Data/data says I have 45M free. Is that too little?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
I just switched to 7.2 yesterday and I have to say all that you mentioned works great for me. The apps do load quicker than jb it seems but the yeah the browser is slower to react tho. I will say if I try to move cpu speed at all it goes into a multiple reboot stage where I have to do 3 finger method to get it to reboot right or it will keep doing it and freeze at bootloader. Not sure why? maybe I need to get Tiny kernel for it.

Tiny thank you for helping me move over to 7.2 so far I don't regret it
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
Hey can anyone help me figure out how to close recent apps on this 7.2 Rom? I can't figure it out.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Force stop from settings. But why do you need to close the apps? They suspend automatically. The swipe away from recents in ICS didn't really kill the app anyways.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
Lol ok then I don't need to. I just have always swiped them away and thought they shut them down. Guess I don't need to.

Tiny now that your here, should I need a different kernel or stick with this one? Things are writing good but browser is like dial up slow lol. Is that just the adw launcher characteristic? I'm talking internet is slow, nothing else
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
This kernel:

http://goo.im/devs/tiny4579/inc/kernels/2.6.38.8-incredikernel-gb-10032012.zip

Try dolphin as an alternate browser. I haven't really used the stock AOSP/CM browser in gingerbread. You could also try Firefox or Opera. Chrome won't work on gingerbread. Dolphin is what I used but try the other two and you may find a favorite. Launcher doesn't affect any apps once it's launched as that app takes over.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
Thanks, if I use twrp recovery should I use Rom manager to flash kernel? I been using goo manager. For some reason Rom manager showed up trying to flash it, should I let it or don't I need cwm to use Rom manager
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Uninstall ROM manager and use goo manager which is better in my opinion.

You don't need to use cwm with ROM manager but its the more supported recovery with rom manager.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
Thanks I like the opp opera browser so far. I was thinking it was a launcher that was slow but I guess just the internet part so opera is nice tho.

It doesn't give me an option to uninstall Rom manager under manage apps. In tb there is option to delete, it's red so is that safe?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Red means system app. You can remove or freeze it with titanium.

Don't just go removing apps though. ROM manager can be removed safely though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
OK so red means it was built in right? will frezzing that app do the same as deleting but not delete? lol did that make sense.

---------- Post added at 09:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 PM ----------

I take it Rom manager is built for this Rom. I tried to register for nightly update notification and it said I needed a Rom manager license to register for it. Should I have kept it for updates only? I didn't no I could use it without using cwm our that it would work on twrp. I no there are ways around it and go into recovery manually to flash is probably preferred by most of you

---------- Post added at 09:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:25 PM ----------

I have been noticing I not getting Facebook or words with friends notification in notification bar. Anyone know why our have the same issue?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
Alright i need to know what the deal with the lockscreen not working. I get it back if I reboot phone then it all works great. I do not know why it stops working because i do not even touch the settings for it or anything like that. Is the stable release for 7.2 good or does it miss things that nightly do not?

So along with no notification for facebook or words with friends and lockscreen quits working and I have to reboot to get it back and swype beta not allowing me to save a word in dictionary is there anything else i should be experiencing on the nightly build? Would it be beneficial to use the stable build or is it more behind times than the nightly?

---------- Post added at 05:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:07 AM ----------

OK now I rebooted and lockscreen came back but as soon i opened phone and when I was done I clicked power button for lock right, a few minutes later I went back to phone and the lockscreen will not work again, whats up with that all the sudden.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
So no one else here having that notification issue with facebook and things like that? I am sure its just me not having the right thing clicked but I can't seem to find out without your help.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zimlokks:
I never had that issue.

Sent from my rooted GameBoy Advance SP! ^¬^
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
so you got all your notifications just fine? The JB cm10 I had no issues at all receiving them. Just wierd thats all
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
I'm not sure about either. I've never heard of the lockscreen issue before. The notification issue I doubt is a setting issue unless you forgot to enable notifications in facebook or Words with Friends. I don't think there's a big issue in CM7.2 stable and the Pons build. You can try stable and see if it helps with your issues. I somewhat think you have a freaky phone. Did you accidentally restore a system app? If so, which one?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zimlokks:
Pons cm7 builds are alil outdated, i would suggest to use the ones cyanogenmod pushes out. Latest one i believe is 1.1.13 runs great. But ill agree with tiny freaky phone you have.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
I am using the latest nightly from cm that tiny gave me. Everything else works great
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zimlokks:
I kno that was a thing on ics&jellybean, but all work great on gingerbread im running the latest nightly with tiamats kernel might be moving back to incredikernel. It's running smooth and everything is working great if u want to try an older nightly go to get.cm/?device=inc and choose an older nightly :D

---------- Post added at 04:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:27 PM ----------

Or choose a stable build as well :) more than likely to have everything working

[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
If I change again it's back to jb I think. Does it mean in 4.2 the camcorder works so does it cm10?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
No, I don't think so. Camcorder is still broken in CM10 I believe but I haven't tested it since it was fixed by evervolv in 4.2
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
Oh ok I was just thinking tha the cm10 was very stable and only thing it lacked that I used was camcorder. I am itching to try cm10.1 bad tho but I need bluetooth to work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] omniatic:
Bluetooth works fine. Calls come through, music plays, all works.

...sorry...I was on the phone...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
Awesome thank you, only concerned with calls at this time anyways.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
How do you do a sceenshot capture on this rom? other than the power menu?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zimlokks:
only way im sorry to inform. I don't think its possible to back port that functionality of ics trigger

Sent from my rooted GameBoy Color!!! ^¬^
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
OK I know when i was miui gb its was a few keys and it worked. thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Are you sure that it doesn't exist in cm 7? They may have added it. If not theres an app that supports timer and shake triggers for taking the screenshots along with a notification trigger.

Edit: Oh I should have read a bit closer. Kramer was just wanting the shortcut key functionality for an already existing screenshot function in the ROM. To me if the power menu works that's good enough and that feature can be enabled in gingerbread. Its not worth my time looking into though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BarackMitzvah:
Hey guys, recently I've been having this issue where my phone gets caught up on something when I put it into sleep mode that causes it to use a ridiculous amount of battery and get really hot (Using a battery monitor app I would wake it and it could be using 800 some mA of power which is a lot more than it uses when it's just awake).

I've attached the logcat just after I woke it and noticed it using all of that power, if anybody could take a look at it, that would be awesome.

Thank you!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zimlokks:
are u still on pons cm7 y not the official cm7 i think its better alil bit more up to date

Sent from my broken Typewriter!!! O.o
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BarackMitzvah:
No, I'm on the latest nighly, just figure this was the most recent thread
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zimlokks:
ill look into it nd report findings since im not a dev but good at finding out problems lol

Sent from my broken Typewriter!!! O.o
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
That is exactly why I switched back to JB 4.2. I figured that if my battery life was going to suck I may as well be up to date on the latest rom. On cm7.2 If I got 2-3 hours of bat life with normal texting I was lucky. I was charging all the sudden(in the last 2 weeks) I was charging like 3 times a day then over night, So I ordered new 3500 battery and switched to 4.2
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BarackMitzvah:
I really want to switch to 4.2, I really do, but I'm so engrained into this phone right now, it'd be a chore to switch over and make sure I wasn't losing anything. Even though I know I could do it, the bugs with it and the work it would require is just stopping me.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] dubluv17:
If I open contacts, click menu then display options I get an FC. (android.process.acore has stopped)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
Just tried and it worked. Told it to sort by last name, and display numbers only. No errors or FC's. Which kang are you on? I'm using pons-12192011.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] dubluv17:
Originally 12162011 but I flashed 19 last night to see if it would fix it. Also, I cleared "Contacts" data and fixed permissions. Nothing. It closes as soon as I click on display options. It's really not a huge deal to me, but thanks for helping.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bob_frapples:
Everything was working great and then I adjusted some of the settings for the lockscreen and went immediately to the Cyanogen mod boot animation and stays there.

I tried wiping cache/dalvic and re-flashing the Rom zip and still stuck on annimation. I won't mess with the lockscreen again but how do I get it back up and running? Hoping not to format because I finally got all my apps setup.

update: I'm on cm7_inc_pons-12192011.zip by the way.

update 2: wiped cache/dalvic again, re-flashed rom and gapps and it still hangs on bootscreen for 1hr until I pull the battery.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] POQbum:
What version of android are the latest KANG builds?

ie my current version is 2.3.7 with CM7 nightly ~#200
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hoagm:
I still have one odd BT issue as well. Actually, I'm not sure if its BT or wifi causing the problem. So my BT in my car auto-connects with my phone and as I drive away from the house my wifi drops when I get out of range (all normal so far). But when wifi drops, BT drops too and any media I'm listening to. (usually Audible, Google Listen or Google Music) pauses. I have to manually reconnect BT and resume media.

This doesn't happen when it finds wifi, only when dropping. It also doesn't happen on other Roms.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bob_frapples:
I also fixed permissions several times just for kicks and that didn't help.

Any suggestions? or do I just need to format it? :confused:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
Flash the latest stock kang without open commits. Chances are it's a setting with one of the open commits so you have to clear it either by formatting or flashing the stock kang.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] bob_frapples:
Thanks for the suggestion but, sorry, which one would this be? Or, where would I find it? Does the cm7_inc_pons-12192011.zip that I've been flashing have open commits in it?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
Yes. It's the one without pons in the name that you want for a stock kang. (read the first couple of lines in the changelog.)

Perfect. Thanks!

Downloading now. Changelog is awesome - good to know.

I made a Dtr for the 12/19. Ill upload if anyone wants it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nitdawg:
Never tried CM before. Holy crap. I love you. Not sure what all you can tweak with this, but so far, its incredibly stable, battery life is great as well...and I haven't tried any other mods (V6) or kernels. Sa-weet!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Neo:
In my opinion, it is the fastest rom available.. And that's before tweaking.. You can literally underclock this rom and it will still perform just as fast.. There are a ton of possibilities you are yet to find..

Welcome to CyanogenMod :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cduru:
Running Pons CM7.2 12/19 release with ext4 mod and latest ICS incredikernel. Personal battery life best: 42+ hrs. Wow!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dyetheskin:
what governor and freq ranges are you using?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cduru:
I am using smartass v2. I am running the kernel with the frequencies as they are; no further tweaking was made. Operating range for my HTC incredible is set for 245mhz - 1.13ghz.

I make great use of go launcher's folder feature. I only run 3 widgets: beautiful weather widget, android pro's calendar and Facebook widgets.

I also used wifi a lot for browsing.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cduru:
Here's how my main screen looks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] droidboy29:
This ROM is sweet I like it better than the latest cm7 nightly that I was using. The only problem I have wit this ROM is that my soft keys dont light up anymore. Has anyone else had this problem or know how to fix it?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BarackMitzvah:
Ahhh, it keeps happening, could I be my batteries dying?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
I think betterbatterystats or gsam would be better for checking wakelocks. Logcat is mostly for identifying details of bugs or force closes in the apps.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BarackMitzvah:
I cleared my dalvik and so far, it seems okay. But if it happens any more ill definitely use that. Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] roflhorse:
I looked at that, seems the last build is just a few weeks old, but I can't find a change log anywhere. Any idea what is different from this Rom? This is my daily driver and I love it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
A changelog for this ROM? In the OP under changelog.

A changelog for CM7.2 in general? In the OP under Merged Commits for Gingerbread.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] roflhorse:
I think I was looking for cm 7.2 in general - on the cm forums there is a nightly that is dated February 2013 and is for the incredible. I was just interested in seeing what was added between your Rom and those nightlys. Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phoenixfriend:
Can I ask questions about cm7.2 here or somewhere else? I was directed here by Tiny. I want to know what I can remove and this still be stable.

All I'm using this device for is wifi for GPS navigation mp3 downloads and dash can duty for my motorcycle. When I'm done with it the only apps that I will install from the market are a native maps GPS app like sygic or something better, Ulysses speedometer, airplane mode wifi and the play store.

So the only thing I need working is wifi GPS and Bluetooth. I don't need the contacts, dialer or SMS/mms agent. I've only been on the Tom a few hours and its smooth and fast and I like it a lot.

I pretty much don't need anything that makes it a phone anymore.

Also how would I remove those things i don't need. I don't want to brick it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
I didn't want to not respond. I actually planned to respond but I wanted to keep them off topic.

The worse thing you'll do if you remove an app you shouldn't is a bunch of force closes or it won't boot which you can reflash the ROM to fix it from recovery. My recommendation to uninstall apps is FX File Explorer from the Play Store. You just delete the .apk you don't want under /system/app. The other option is Titanium Backup. Either will work fine. Titanium is a bit easier as you just go to the backup/restore menu and click on the app and select uninstall. Red apps there are system apps.

Now for my list based on what I remember and what you've told me:

Dialer, Contacts, News/Weather, ROM Manager, Email, Exchange, MMS, Calculator, Terminal. These are the app names. The app file names will be similarly named ending in .apk.

I don't recommend uninstalling Phone as it will throw errors. The preferred way to disable phone signal is use airplane mode but you have to reenable wifi afterwards and you also have to enable WiFi on boot which you don't have to do in ICS/JB.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phoenixfriend:
Ok. I actually had a list of others but you covered enough.

---------- Post added at 10:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 PM ----------

besides whatsbin the app drawer there are a lotbof things in the system apps folder. Like latinime.apk latinime tutorial and some others.

---------- Post added at 11:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:58 PM ----------

I have phone.apk and telephonyprovider.apk I would assume that one or the other ought to be able to be removed without something breaking.

Note 2, yeah son!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DaggerDave:
I just finished customizing an install .zip I made from the latest CM 7.2 nightly found here. So far it's running very fast and smooth. I left in phone.apk and telephonyprovider.apk because I will be using VOIP and wasn't sure if I would need them, but if you want to try this script, it should do some of what you are looking for without the added effort. I didn't try it, since I made my own mod, but it should work for any rom.

Do a Google search on any system apps you think you might want to remove before you do. Many of them (like latinime.apk = android keyboard) aren't obvious but are necessary for proper function, or at least need to be replaced with another app first. There is a pretty good list you could look through here. Usually, I just use a root file explorer to add ".bak" to the end of the app name (for example, rename contacts.apk to contacts.apk.bak), then reboot. If I don't have any problems then I delete it, or save it to sdcard in case I need it later.

BTW the reason I ended up using the nightly from the CM site was because all the links in the OP come up empty (either file not found, or just an empty page), so I couldn't download this rom. Am i missing something here or is this rom no longer being hosted?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phoenixfriend:
I used the link you posted for cm7.2 im the other thread you were helping me in. Went to town deleting apks. Went too fast and started getting force closes and process fcs so I went to reflash like it was fresh and deleted all the zips. Oops. Just loaded it back a few mins ago. I may try your link though.

How do I get it to stop asking me to activate the phone? Everytime it boots it asks.

Note 2, yeah son!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phoenixfriend:
I may try yours sooner than I think. I managed to get the app drawer to look like this.

The a google services frame work failure. Guess I shouldnt go crazy. Maybe one at a time until im done.

Note 2, yeah son!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phoenixfriend:
The script you linked to worked for getting rid of some of those apks without issue. Gonna use it. I tried to delete them myself and force closes the phone. So it cant be done one at a time.

Note 2, yeah son!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
Tried Titanium Backup? That's how I delete my unwanted system apps. I use a filter that I saved/apply, and have it uninstall them all.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phoenixfriend:
Hadnt tried it yet. Sorry dont want to sound foolish but titanium kind confunds me a little. Im still trying to find the apps that I can delete that dont start causing fc problems. Im gonna start fresh and write each down and the result. Create a list for those looking to do the same. For that list should I post here or start a new thread and in which section?

Note 2, yeah son!

---------- Post added at 04:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:14 PM ----------

Will deleting sound recorder cause it not to record sounds while doing the video camera?

Note 2, yeah son!

---------- Post added at 05:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:57 PM ----------

So hiw can I get the play store without having to have gmail and all of the other gapps on my phone? Also could someone send me the apk for fx file explorer and the root add on? I want to do some deleting before I flash gapps. Just to see how many apks come in the gapps.zip.

Note 2, yeah son!

---------- Post added at 06:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:46 PM ----------

I copied the gapps.zip and tried to slim it up and remove some stuff from there before installing it and that didnt work. It wouldnt move past the point where you have to touch the android man.

Note 2, yeah son!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Why not just use the script? There's really no gain in my opinion from removing system apps on cm 7.2
