Battery issues, pfffft!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] reeseman04:
I have noticed an increased battery life also.

However, this may be due to going from stock radio (circa 2010) to the newest release.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] x2kjosh:
Not trying to rant but battery life needs to be clarified... you can't just throw out a random number. You have to specify avg usage time, what you were doing, etc. If I leave my phone alone and don't touch it, the thing will last a couple days, but if I use it heavily, it will drain. It'd be nice to share settings on what we have turned on, screen timeout settings, etc, so maybe we can compile a list.

Also, Incredikernel does seem to last longer for me with average usage throughout the day, you know, checking email, twitter, googling, playing music. I can probably manage 18 hours of my normal usage with this, but I keep the thing plugged in when I'm at my desk so its all good.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lolreconlol:
Exactly.. when I was on ICS, I was getting about 8-12 hours of light use.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Note2Frat:
Battery drain like we are experiencing is because we don't have a proper ICS kernel. I would imagine it getting better as development progresses on that end. Until then we have two kernel choices Tiamat's and Incredikernel

Some prefer one over the other.

Some things u can do to increase life is to turn off things not needed at times like GPS, Wifi, Data or use the power saver option under rom control under settings.

:D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 5thAgent:
I get pretty good battery life. Here's a screenshot of my battery info after 2 days of light use, and connected to WiFi when at home.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] demarcmj:
Well?

I noticed that a long time ago as well. I'm pretty sure "dinc" is the correct one since ics-deck is a different ROM... probably just a typo.

(also the zip files say "dinc")

That's called a spinner and they show up in lots of places. Not just the Calendar app.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] pingels:
Guilty as charged. All the google apps worked fine; that is, no force closes associated with them.

fyi, running Incredikernel 1/03 interx and 245/998 min/max. using ext4 mod and zram
[Droid Incredible Android Development] syrguy1969:
Just started using this ROM this weekend, and I really love the look and feel of it. Speed is sluggish at times, but not bad. I find my live wallpaper (Miltipicture) won't work correctly, is shows about half an image and half black screen, but that may be part of the EEMC issue (if I have that terminology correct) so I am not sweating it now. Camera and gallery are flukey, work great at times and then nothing but FC's until a reset.

My one issue I don't know where it is coming from are the complete restarts my phone does all the time, I may average three to four a day, buth automatic restarts and freezes making me pull the battery and restart. Any info I can give I will try to provide, I am trying to stick with this ROM because it looks really nice and works (most of the time LOL)!!

Thanks to the OP and I will keep an eye on the thread.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] demarcmj:
Don't know what kernel you are using, but it's been my experience that tiamat greatly reduces those freezes & restarts. I'm using incredikernel with zram right now because it's faster, but I sure do miss the stability of tiamat.

Also, a lot of people have said that undervolting helps, but none of them explain how to do it and I'm too lazy to research.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] syrguy1969:
Thanks, I am using stock kernel right now (didn't want to try too much at once), but I will look into that option. As far as undervolting, I will see what I can find, but I am not nearly comfortable with my skills to try it without finding instructions on good settings/usage.

Thanks again for the info, worth a shot!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dirtsky:
If you want to undervolt there is a couple of options. There is vipermod and incredicontrol. Vipermod is a script you run in terminal, and its pretty easy to use. Incredicontrol has a nice GUI interface and is also pretty simple to use, and I believe its on the market or you can get it from the incredikernel website www.incredikernel.com.

EDIT: Oh and both tiamat and incredikernel are compatible with the vipermod. Tested myself.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] michelbites:
I can't get Chrome to work...

Is there any way to get Chrome to work on this ROM. It installs but doesn't render any pages. :-(
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Fergusonfox7:
Needs true HW acceleration =/
[Droid Incredible Android Development] collins521:
Giving this rom a go, is there a way to not be able to use the notification bar when it's locked?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NYC Coyote:
nope.. its an ICS thing... hoping someone figures out a way to lock it down.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Sidriel:
Evervolv has HWA now.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dirtsky:
Is this for real?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ert342:
Indeed it is, and oh is it smooth. Not quite as stable and the transition animations that were previously smooth are now not...weird, but it's a step in the right direction and oh that app drawer is smooth.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] demarcmj:
I really want to try it out but I've grown accustomed to ROM control and the notification toggles in this ROM. I don't think I can go back.

It probably won't be long until we see it in this ROM anyway.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NYC Coyote:
Well.. theoretically it should just be the kernel allowing for hardware acceleration.. anyone here have the knowhow to take it out of Evervolv and make it a flashable zip for this one?

And for whomever is on it.. can you try using Chrome? This way our educated guess about it being a hardware acceleration problem can be tested.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ert342:
Chrome works, it's not as speedy as the stock browser but it is rendering pages.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NYC Coyote:
Well.. hardware acceleration is one thing... a kernel made for ICS is another... baby steps! It's working....

You wouldn't happen to have the skills I mentioned in the other part of the post would ya?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ert342:
No, sorry, but @mongoosehelix mentioned that there were additional libs along with the kernel changes to make the HWA work correctly so I'm not sure if your idea would work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dirtsky:
been running the evervolv rom and yes it is way smoother but camera doesnt work for me and speaking of bugs i just text my girlfriend and it rebooted on me. well back to cm7.2 for now.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NYC Coyote:
Well.. I'm sure this ROM will be updated fast... if he has the time and can also figure out what they did on Evervolv... plus the community itself does like to share (at least that's what I tell myself)...

So here's hoping for an exchange of info.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Note2Frat:
They do as long as you give credit where it is due. They are great. I only worked with Paul (MongooseHelix).:D

I am running there version right now, there are going to be some graphical errors and such since it is in the early stages, but the graphics are awesome.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ithrewitontheground:
This is a killer ROM man. If anyone is wondering, flashover works from inc-deck to this. Just wipe cache and dalvik cache, flash and boot :) It may take twice though that may be because I came from a backup.

May have spoken too soon, now all gapps auto close and there is no option to add a google account in settings.

DO NOT FLASHOVER, DO NOT FLASH OVER
[Droid Incredible Android Development] samuel_sutrisno:
whether the 3G hotspots work?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] PGleo86:
Doesn't work for me

Edit: wow, just realized how unclear that quote is. Music from SD card is what's not working. Sorry about that

[Droid Incredible Android Development] x2kjosh:
so... YouTube app with the HQ button checked plays fine.... unchecked it doesn't
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NYC Coyote:
Just only now playing with it and I love it....

is there a way to get rid of the "T-CDMA 64" from the pull down?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rdnkchevy:
I try to download something off the internet I can watch the down load bar finish then it says download failed...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NYC Coyote:
EMMC doesn't seem to be mounting... I mean I use ftp most of the time so not a biggie.. just wanted it known
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jtkes693:
can someone post a mirror cant download from the dropbox link to much traffic please and thank you
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Fergusonfox7:
system settings>rom control>general ui> scroll down to custom carrier label, delete whats in it, hit ok. Give it a while, it'll get rid of it from lockscreen right away, takes a while to work from the drop down.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NYC Coyote:
I just replaced Apex with Nova... soooo much smoother... is there a way to remove that P3 IceCream Sandwich Wallpapers app?

Also.. any word on whether wifi tethering works?

edit: was able to remove Apex and the Wallpaper App with Root FTP (I'm sure that Root Explorer would work fine too)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayjay7411:
Wish there was a mirror his drop box was disabled or at least this link
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NYC Coyote:
Is there a way to TURN OFF how it unlocks when you use the notification bar from the lock screen?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] countryfolk07:
This ICS is killer!!!!! I love all the tweaks. Very smooth, lots of options. Thanks man.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DustinBooyah:
+1 on Nova... substantially smoother for me as well.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gonzo115:
Dropbox link is disabled. Can somebody create a mirror?

Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] s_wall98:
Anyone tried Go Launcher with this rom?

My wife uses it on her Eris and it seems pretty smooth and snappy so should only be better on the incredible.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Fergusonfox7:
same

10 char
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Note2Frat:
I will look into it and update bug list, Thanks

You can also hold Power+Down Volume

With ICS, I wouldnt recommend that. Different framework, system UI, Camera drivers, ect.

Not sure, Don't use it. Maybe if someone does and reports it I will post about it.

NP, Thanks

Thanks, Looking into it.

Setting up Goo-inside.me now :D

Glad you were able to take care of the removal. Waiting for people to test wifi tethering.

Not sure what you mean.

Setting up Goo-inside.me now :D

I have used it but not with this rom. sorry

@Fergusonfox7 - Thanks for trying to help, but do not post mirrors. I am working on it right now. Was sleeping :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Fergusonfox7:
Thats weird, music through SD card works fine for me, listening to it atm lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ralph0015:
Yeah, off the sd card it works fine. If you have music on the EMMC as well (like I do) it doesn't read that.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NYC Coyote:
I truly wish I had the skills to help... all I can offer is to help compile on my Core I7 (which you would have to walk me through)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Note2Frat:
learning myself :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Aaron1017:
Is there a way to change the settings for the screen brightness like in CM7? I find the automatic backlight setting WAY too bright in the dark, killing battery life.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] fgc_vn:
Thanks all
[Droid Incredible Android Development] m52 power!:
Tried this as well as evervolv, nice work but not a daily. Sluggish, freezes, camera is garbage, reboots, bla bla. Back to good old CM7! ICS is nice but I don't think it should be on the dinc.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Note2Frat:
If you are using the notifications toggles in the Rom Control it should be on top of the toggles.

Np

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. This is still in Development early stages. I am sure you would have said that for cm7 when it was in Development.:D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NYC Coyote:
Damn straight.. this is an ALPHA.. not even a BETA! I'm shocked it's as smooth as it is!

You should really think of this as a preview of what's to come.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] x2kjosh:
Fyi.... if you charge with your phone powered off.... battery life seems slightly better... at least for me
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SantiMun:
Dont think the DInc can handle ICS? Think again!

Might wanna hold off on that statement about ICS shouldn't be on the DInc. Evervolv guys just released a new update that includes a new kernel that has hardware acceleration on it. I just flashed it over and holy crap is it smooth now! :eek:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] axv91:
Wait..so this rom can become more smooth-er than it is now?!..Lol I always thought this rom is most responsive and it's fluid enough to be my daily driver..Im excited to see the update ;D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DevonL:
Realistically, kind of an ignorant comment to make. I know I personally have been running ICS as a daily since December. I briefly went back to GB because of non-working camera being an issue and then ... the camera was figured out.

Keep up the great work to all of the developers chipping in on this project. I'm loving what's being done but between the AOKP and Evervolv project as well. It's all running amazingly well.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] x2kjosh:
There was a time, he dinc wasn't supposed to be capable of gingerbread
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gcaliber:
I wish the choppiness of SD youtube would get figured out. Playing on HD isn't an option for me with how I use my phone so its a deal breaker for using ICS as a daily rom. Everything else I use works great, though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Sidriel:
Slight graphical glitches with HQ youtube in evervolv, but it's smooth beyond that.

Edit: it just rebooted on me when I started a video.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] shuura:
I agree DevonL! I've also been running ICS as a daily for quite a while now. The only issue I have with it as a daily is the battery life. Version one of this rom was a dream! I would have over 50% battery after a 12-hour work day!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] firewater88:
Tried this rom out this week, only my second ICS rom. Loved it more than the one I came from but have had some issues and have gone back to an old backup.

Mostly I have had issues with Nav, either Google nav or a third party app. They both close after about 5 min of use, then the whole phone is sluggish and can't even open the app drawer. I was running the latest build, total wipe and flashed as per instructions, using stock kernel (even though I typically go for the Incredikernel). No real settings change from stock, just loaded apps and away I went.

I did a fix permissions from Rom manager, rebooted and it cleared everything up, until I ran a nav app again then back to everything closing down. i did notice a few others had similar issues, but it was early on in the forum, thought they might be on an earlier version of the rom.

Back to a good daily driver for now, but I love the options this rom has over others.

Any suggestions? willing to give it a whirl again if...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] reeseman04:
Did you try doing a full wipe before installing?

I have been using this as my daily since V.01 (and was using ICS as daily since I got my hands on deck's ROM).

I have used, without issue, Navigation. I have an updated radio and am running tiamits.

The best success with this ROM is to do a full wipe before installing (pain I know, but MyBackup makes life easier).

The camera will be sluggish and no EMMC is annoying (twitter can't store images). However ICS is too nice to leave and some random reboots doesn't hamper my use of my phone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] firewater88:
Yes, full wipe beforehand (I always do). I also have the latest radio posted. I have not used tiamits, but may try it next time.

I am not as concerned with the camera and I understand the issues with EMMC, those wont keep me from the ROM, but the nav issue will. I may try it again soon- maybe the next update-, but right now I really need a stable phone as I am working long days and really rely on it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] CeeDub:
Thanks for the fixes in v.4!

Came from CM7.2 and a MIUI or two.

Version 1 & 2 left me without touchscreen use. Version 3 had a couple glitches, but I was hooked, despite the battery drain.

Version 4, (bundled with Tiamat) is my dd and I haven't found any show stoppers.

Nice work!

-C
[Droid Incredible Android Development] enohand:
I've been using this heavily as a daily for the last few weeks.

V3 gave me some issues. But v4 seems super stable.

I have NO issues. With anything all works well.

I had 1 reboot on v4 but was trying to break it.. Then downloaded photobucket and uploaded a bunch of images then went into gps, then email then hit the back button a bunch of. Times... It then rebooted.

But other then that it's flawless fro what I need and use my phone for

Keep up the good work
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
72ls1, I flashed the camera fix and the bar code scanner worked fine; however, after i rebooted, it stopped working and I had to reflash. Is there any way to make this fix stick? Thanks for all your work on this rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ra6idr0y:
Just for kicks I posted a zip in "themes and apps" that will take all of the orange and green out of p9 and replace with blue if your still using.

If there is a demand for it, I could do the same for this rom... just don't want to spend too much time on themes given how quickly these early roms are changing.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] XRaptor29:
Try flashing incredikernal 01/03/2012. That's the kernal that was in .01 he switched on .02
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Nalij:
Barcode Scanner App

Try this - A barcode scanner app that I use with v.2 that works well.

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1459039
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
Thanks, but neither the link nor the QR code work; however, it wasn't the scanner, it was the camera fix itself (which is supposed to fix the bar code scanner) that wouldn't stick. In any event, I wiped cache and dalvik, reflashed fix, rebooted, then rebooted again and the fix remained and bar scanner worked.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ymitchell7:
I tried to make a 3-way call & the second call wouldn't connect. I clicked "add call" & dialed the number, & then clicked "merge calls" when it appeared on the screen. Heard nothing but silence and flash button wouldn't work either. Anyone else have this problem with 3-way calling or know a way to fix it?

Thanx

EDIT: I noticed that when I press the "add call" icon it automatically turns on the "mute" button. Any way of fixing this?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] KrisPeezy:
A suggestion if i may... would it be possible to remap the "automagic" torch to activate while holding the trackpad?

that seems more logical than the power button, if possible. :)

btw, tried this rom with v.02 and everything was cool for me up until I had the battery down to <15% and decided to do a battery swap. But that threw me into a bootloop and had to restore a nandroid after trying to fix permissions and then wiping data/cache/dalvik...

I really liked it up to that point.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Note2Frat:
Update Build 25 with Evervolv HW acceleration :D

Do not use Icredikernel until he releases update for HW acceleration.

Do not use camera posted with previous release.

Torch development is done by AOKP team.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
72ls1, when you say don't use "camera posted with previous release," your're not talking about the camera fix for the bar code scanner are you?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cowman4000:
Incredikernel gives me outstanding battery life but I thought chad didn't develop for the incredible anymore? Doesn't he work on the rezound now?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Note2Frat:
Yes, that is what I mean

Not sure, just going off what Paul said from Evervolv
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
Does the bar code scanner now work without the fix on this Build? Also, can we flash Build 25 over the previous build or do we need a full wipe? Thanks for your fine work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] xdadevelopers-user:
Bar code scanner did not work for me. I did not try the fix since we were instructed not to. The camera display is completely garbled/unviewable but it takes pictures just fine.

-xdadevelopers-user
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Note2Frat:
No it isn't working because of the HW acceleration. Somethings get worse before they get better. Like the saying 1 step forward and 2 back. :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ra6idr0y:
F*** yeah. I've been running evolv p9 but really missing some aspects of this rom. Def coming back to this now...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TokedUp:
Thanks for the update 72. Will be flashing as soon as I get home from set.

Any improvements on the SD card issue? Happened to me again this morning after not happening for a couple days.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dirtsky:
Hell Yeah! Flashing now.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ra6idr0y:
I assume there are framework-res changes from last build to this... but anyone know if SystemUI.apk has been touched? Had a black and white theme in the works for v4...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ardax:
Maybe I'm dumb, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how this differs from "stock" AOKP. Obviously, 72ls1 has managed to port in the HW accel from Evervolv's latest preview, but other than that? Reading the first couple posts, I'm having a hard time seeing the differences and I don't want to dork around with wiping and reinstalling everything from scratch again.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Konshu:
I will flash the latest after work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] demarcmj:
I'm assuming that when you look at the changelog, the things with just a dash before them are the standard AOKP things, whereas things with an actual bullet next to them are things 72ls1 has done for this ROM specifically. I could be wrong though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ra6idr0y:
[theme] no more orange and green...

flash attached zip in recovery to loose the orange and green accents. Also includes the holo dark Mms, Contacts, and Calc from the gnex forum. if you dont want those apps you can delete from the zip with 7zip before flashing. I have a thread started in themes and apps for Evervolv p9 that I'll edit to include this.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TokedUp:
Thanks for the zip. I was replacing the apk's in the rom zip before installing fresh. Maybe next time u can include the black themed Google voice and music apps. These black themed apps are saving me a ton of battery life. White screens bleed juice.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] demarcmj:
Can you elaborate... what orange and green accents?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] pchuk815:
I know it's probably an odd request but does anyone know if the FM tuner works in ICS? Surprisingly, my gym is still setup with FM broadcasters for the TV audio.
