Here's the link for beta 2: http://d-h.st/blx

As hanger said, it definitely works with 1.88 (it's what I'm using). As for 1.81... I don't see any reason why you would want to bother. I think for a non-HWA version of the ROM, you'd probably gain nothing from using a HWA-enabled kernel. While I'm at it, I don't see any reason to be running 1.81 at this point. If you don't want HWA, the most recent non-HWA version is 1.85a5.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
Great; looking forward to it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kevman8396:
Thanks so much. Since i am not familiar with what different kernels do, what benefit does flashing this kernel provide? Better battery life or anything else?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] demarcmj:
I don't pretend to be an expert either, but it is supposed to improve battery life. It also gives some additional cpu governor options that you may have become accustomed to if you were using incredikernel earlier.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] el6006:
I installed this and it was buttery smooth but I ended up back on CM9 a few minutes later because I use my Inc to listen to music quite a bit and I was getting some weird sound issues. When I enable the DSP manager options the sound abruptly changes and gets really loud and then really soft and it hurt my ears. Also the sound freaks out when I change tracks in the Apollo music player. Not sure what the dealio is but thought I'd report. Hanger, great job again btw. Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
Thanls for letting me know. I just noticed this myself too while testing the new build. I think it might be the version of DPS Manager I used, so Imma pull the one from CM9 and double check some other system files to see if I can fix it.

And yes, I did say testing the new build....which is AOKP B39 based. Full HWA too and a nice surprise in it too...when I post it, I wonder who will find the surprise first lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
So, the new test build is ready for the most part. The only thing thats not done is the coding part of the lockscreen mod. Hakarune redid the images for the lock screen and they look amazing! And the ones for 4th Kind are awesome and hell! I'm actually thinking of using one of the images as my new avatar from now on.

Thanks to Hakarune, I've got more wind in my sails working on Abduction.....with the amazing graphics work hes coming up with, it just makes me wanna bust ass even harder to make sure the ROMs are just as awesome as his work! So, keep an eye out for an early beta of 4th Kind!

I'll be posting the new Abduction ICS build in an hour or so, after I do this final test and get it uploaded.

*EDIT* New build is uploading now, version 2.1a3. I'll post the links soon as it's done uploading. For now, here's an Abduction ICS splash screen:

http://www.androidfilehost.com/main...dible/Abduction-ICS/Addons/Splash_PB31IMG.zip

http://goo.im/devs/Hanger84/Incredible/Abduction-ICS/Addons/Splash_PB31IMG.zip

To flash, place in the root of your SD card, rename to PB31IMG.zip. Boot into hboot, press vol up when asked, reboot, profit!

*EDIT 2* As promised, here is the links for build 2.1a3:

http://goo.im/devs/Hanger84/Incredible/Abduction-ICS/Test-Roms/Abduction-ICS_V2.1a3.zip

http://www.androidfilehost.com/main...uction-ICS/Test-Roms/Abduction-ICS_V2.1a3.zip

General changes vs 1.88 are: Updated base to AOKP build 39, new locksceen mod images, more build.prop tweaks, removed some apps and added some (based on users submitted survey), and an awesome surprise!

Whenever someone figures out the surprise, I'll give more details about it :D

ENJOY!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
So, I think I found the problem with DSP Manager and made the changes that should fix it. I'll upload a new build of 2.1 in an hour or so. Working on Abduction: The 4th Kind right now...the first test release is amazing. I love it so much that I just might switch back to my Inc for awhile! I'm probably going to do another test build of it and then, those that did my Google docs survey and added their user names will get a PM with the link to it so they will have a chance to test it before I release it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] OnceAMatrixMan:
But I just flashed 1.88 seven hours ago... I haven't even had time to play with it yet. BTW just wiped caches and all seems good so far. Fast and smooth.

Am I ready to do a full wipe and install...?

Hanger I am confused about the version numbers now. 1.x was now HWA, and 2.x was with HWA. So are you migrating everything to 2.x with the inclusion of HWA in 1.x?

I haven't thanked you in a while, so thank you! Except for stock I have run this longer than any other RPM mainly because it's great and you have not abandoned it like so many others have. I really wish I didn't have to make the decision that Verizon is forcing me to make this week...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hakarune:
He over exaggerates, it was more the 5 to 7 shot espresso and the Red Bull that got him rolling so much...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rstandi:
Great work!!! Are the battery updates in 2.1a3? Thanks for your work!

rstandi
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
Yea, I've been on a roll this week playing catch up. 1.x started out as being 2 versions, non-hwa and an hwa version, but then I could only keep up with one, so it was the non-hwa one that became more popular anyway, so it was easier to maintain it. After a few builds though, I decided I wanted HWA cause some games I liked wouldn't work so I started version 2.0 which was a merge of AOKP and Evervolv but after a little bit, it was to difficult to merge them and that's when I took a break to deal with family and personal issues. Now that things have smoothed out, AOKP is finally supporting HWA more and more in their builds. Version 1.88 was based off of AOKP build 37 which had spoty/partial HWA....once I found out how to get build 39 to work, I rebased to that and after some tests with incredikernel, found that it had full HWA support....thus I changed it from 1.88 or what would have been 1.89 rather to 2.1....plus I was running out of numbers for 1.x! lol

Yep, all the same tweaks and features from 1.88 are in 2.1a3. I'll be releasing 2.1a4 tonight after I finish up a couple minor changes and Torch back in. 4th Kind is pretty much ready to go, but I'm holding off on a public release for a little bit because I'm working on the wallpaper app for it.

On that note, I'm surprised no ones found the surprise in the rom yet, so here's a little hint...you can find it in the the system settings menus somewhere.

And speaking of wallpapers! Tomorrow I'll be setting up a thread/contest for wallpapers for Abduction ICS. The top 5 will get their wallpapers added into the ROM and the top person will receive a custom skin for their phone featuring either their wallpapers on it, or a design of their choice! I wish I could afford to offer more prizes and bigger prices, but I'm just a poor college student lol

Also, later today I will be sending PMs to folks that filled out my google docs survey and provided their username with a link to download the test build of Abduction: The 4th Kind before I release it sometime this week.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] d00dr:
Guess I know what I'll be doing this evening...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
There will be a new build of 2.X tonight or tomorrow since AOKP build 40 just came out this morning.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] OnceAMatrixMan:
This will require a full wipe coming from 1.88 I assume?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Neo:
Ok! Thread has been updated at http://androidrevolutions.com/index

Be on the lookout folks for THE 4TH KIND to make it's exclusive debut it's first week ONLY available at Android Revolutions! Keep this thread bookmarked as you never know just when it might drop ;) - THE 4TH KIND

-Neo
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
I flashed over 1.88 after cache and dalvik wipe. It worked fine.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
Sent messages to everyone that included their name in the survey...if I missed anyone, send me a PM.

The new test build of 4th Kind is pretty much what will be the release build. The only thing missing is a few wallpapers.

As for Abduction ICS updates, I'll try to have a new update ready tomorrow night if I can. I'm headed out to my fathers for a day or two to visit and help him mow and weed eat around the property. When I'm done and have down time, I'll be working on new builds if I'm not too tired, but I'm not sure if I'll have it ready before I get back home nut I'll try.

When I do get back though, I'm going to release 4th Kind and try a couple tweaks for Beats Audio and DSP Manager for Abduction ICS. I'm pretty sure I got the volume issue resolved now, I just have to build it and test it out to make sure.

And for those wondering, flashing version 2.1 over 1.88 should be fine, but I would suggest a full wipe if your coming from 1.81 or 1.85 just to be on the safe side.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hakarune:
I'm also working on something very special for The 4th Kind too ;), Hanger is making me do it, but so far it is even impressing the woman, though it could be cause she's helping me color coordinate... Stupid color blindness... lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] OnceAMatrixMan:
Quick question... Now that data usage is working I have been looking at it, and I see that "10084" is responsible for half of data used - 52 mb in 2 days. Any idea what 10084 is anyone? Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hakarune:
Well a Google search says that it's most likely a widget, for an app. One app that uses that uid is elixir...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] d00dr:
Anyone get The 4th Kind up and running? I seem to keep getting an error when I try to flash the zip. I've tried redownloading the file a couple of times but keep getting the same error...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
What is the error?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] d00dr:
Something about installation aborted because the file was bad... Let me try it again and this time I will copy exactly what it says. I can't remember exactly what it said...

EDIT: Must have been a bad download because I'm all good to go now... holy smokes!

That boot animation is the best ever!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
It's up and running for me and what great theming! I had a minor issue, and this occurred in the previous build also. I opened incredicontrol, tapped on the general tab and it was unresponsive and closed. Then, I attempted to enable zram in TE and the phone rebooted. After the reboot, both incredicontrol and TE worked fine and I was able to enable zram. I have had no issues since. Great work Hanger and Hakarune.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bobAbooE:
Is there an md5 sum? Sounds like a bad download. Check the md5 and download again if it doesn't match.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] d00dr:
It happened within the first few seconds of installing, every time. Didn't get very far. I'm redownloading onto a totally different computer now and going to try again shortly... Thanks guys!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hakarune:
Which boot animation is on there ATM? Is it the light blue circuit alien?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] d00dr:
Sure is! And its absolutely ridiculous! Best boot animation ever!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chocolate8175:
Link for the 4th kind please?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
4th Kind isn't released yet, still in testing till I get home to finish it. Only people that filled out the survey in the first post got links to the teat build.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hakarune:
Nice, if all goes well, there will be something extra to match it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] d00dr:
Cant' wait!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Neo:
Remember to keep posted on the AR site for the official release of THE 4TH KIND!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sd5500:
Do gapps need to be flashed with 4th kind?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
Yes; they need to be flashed after the rom is flashed.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jprow507:
Is this the 4th kind an ICS themed ROM then or Gingerbread, or surprise until it's released officially?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
Its a surprise lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
When you flash it, it tells you.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chocolate8175:
Right on, thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sd5500:
Love the theme in 4th kind! Had 2 issues this morning though. 1) phone froze and rebooted while on a call. 2) missed a call, message was left, but no VM icon.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
Aside from some initial start up issues involving TE, kernel and incredicontrol, all has been running smoothly for 24 hours with excellent battery life. I can't wait to see the final version.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] powerhouselb:
Nice Rom

I really like that all of these quality ROMs are being produced. This rom looked very promising. I have noticed that there seems to be a method of sharing the downloads that seems to redirect you to another page entirely. Not very fond of that because it forces you to search through the thread to find a good link (not so bad if forcing people to explore the thread).

I tried out this rom and loved it, but I'm assuming to make it sync with my Google account, I needed gapps. That menat searching through the thread again. I wasn't up for a game of hide and seek. Though, I did flash another ROM, this one definately had a wonderful look and feel to it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
For gapps, it's simple. Find the version of android you're running (not mentioning it here to increase the surprise) then find the latest version of gapps for that version over at goo.im.

Or (what I'd do if I didn't know it off the top of my head) you can backup Goo Manager from Titanium Backup, have it converted to a flashable zip, flash that after the ROM, then open up Goo Manager and have it search for the latest gapps available for your current Android version, then flash that.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
Actually, if you look at the first post, right below the link for the rom is 2 links for google apps, and below that there is links for the extras. In addition to those links, ALL google apps packages have been available on goo.im for months. So, there's no game of hide and seek to find the link for them.

Also, all non-test builds of the rom are on the first post. Theblinks for the teat builds are always available on goo.im, my personal website, and android file host. The main post has not been updated with the test builds because the test build change sometimes 5 a day depending on the time I have available. And as states a few posts up, a full non-test release will be posted in a few days when I'm done helping my family with some things.

In addition to what's been said, if you can't find something, usually if you just ask, someone will provide the information your looking for.

I've only had it happen once on The 4th Kind. And now that I'm trying to replicate it, I can't. Figures...

EDIT: Got it to do it again. Seems to only happen when the battery is fully charged with the screen awake.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] powerhouselb:
Sorry about that, but I didn't mean to imply that the links weren't reliable and nothing else is available. Yeah, I didn't have much luck and I did assume that the link on the main post was unavailable. I'm sorry. I tried goo.im and got a page full of giberish. That may very well have been my PC. I was stating that I simply didn't feel like searching of a working link or asking for help because it wasn't that kind issue. I was at work and didn't have the time to search it out.

Just so you know, it was an excellent looking rom. I'm sure I would have been able to find what I needed had I dedicated the time. I d intend to check out the ROM one day. Thanks for the reply. I appreciate it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
Working on the new test build for 2.1 now that AOKP B40 is out. I'm going to be changing the kernel as well.....but it will still be incredikernel. Since I'm going to be changing it, and no one seemed to notice it......the surprise in the latest build of Abduction (2.1) and 4th Kind is that they both use Incredikernel Beta 3 and have a new governor, Intellidemand. The new test build of Abductiona nd 4th Kind will have a new version of Incredikernel for folks to test out.

I'm considering making an odexed version as well, which will offer some speed improvements, and help with battery life as well.

On a side note, I may end up selling my Incredible soon to help get a Nexus 7 (which I plan to also dev for as soon as I get one) that doesn't mean that I'm going to stop working on my ROMs for the Inc though, just that test builds will take a little longer to finish testing and be released.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nfiniti9:
See the last comment almost every dev left before they never came back ;)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
I'm not every other dev. I don't use my Incredible for anything other than to test my roms. I have a Rezound that is my main phone, yet I only make roms for the Incredible.....I'm not leaving, if I ever was going to leave, I would have left when I got my Rezound.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Neo:
True story and he's been using a Rezound as his primary for some time now
[Droid Incredible Android Development] powerhouselb:
Great ROM

I've finally downloaded GApps from my home computer, flashed the ROM and gapps, and I gotta say, it's a very nice ROM. I do believe this will be the one I use until my upgrade date. The ROM I tried to use before this one was very laggy. Maybe it required more horsepower than my phone could give.

Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
Glad you like it. I'm going to release a new test build tonight, as well as a new build of 4th Kind.

I won't say exactly what's been updated other than its the kernel. All reboot issues will hopefully be completely gone in the new update.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jprow507:
When will the 4th kind be officially released for everyone to download?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
Tonight or tomorrow at the latest. Got a couple things I gotta add/change, then it will be ready.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] d00dr:
Man, I can't stress enough how much I am digging The 4th Kind. It is by far and away the best ROM for our old Incredible that I've experienced. Super stable, super fast, and excellent battery life. Now, with that said, what could you possibly be adding and/or changing to make such an amazing ROM even better, other than the obvious camcorder/video issue? I mean seriously, this ROM is awesome. I can't stop gushing about it!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
I'm going to update the kernel and there's a wallpaper app me and Hakarune have been working on for the ROM as well, and a secret surprise. The surprise isn't ready yet, but hopefully it will be soon.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Neo:
Gushing XD lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
Who's ready for 4th Kind?

I'll be releasing to today! Look for it to appear before midnight.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jprow507:
Can't wait! Any way you can post the release notes/screenshots at ParanoidAndroid so we can see what is in store?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hakarune:
lol, I don't think that is what he had in mind for a screenshot lol

Edit: And I just realized I messed up on this image... the BG PCB doesn't line up with the alien like it's supposed to, damn it!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cdrury88:
Still looks damn cool
[Droid Incredible Android Development] demarcmj:
Any word on that new test build of regular abduction that you mentioned yesterday? I'm pretty excited that you think you've completely eradicated the reboot issue.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jprow507:
Tinys RC1 kernel seems to have fixed that issue

---------- Post added at 07:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:28 PM ----------

On this new ROM, will a complete wipe be needed if coming from another ICS ROM?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
The new Incredikernel RC1 is what will be in both ROMs. And yes, I would advise a full wipe.

The thread is almost set up and ready for 4th Kind....should be ready in the next hour or two.

As for Abduction ICS, I'll be working on the update and getting it out once I finish up releasing 4th Kind tonight.

Sorry things have been going slowly, I've been busy with a lot of things 'behind the scenes'. Very very big things are coming very soon to the android community...if all pans out as planed. I can't give out any details, but those in the know of whats going on knows that some major bombs are about to drop in the near future if everything works out. I'm SOOOO friggin excited!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] withbloodskies:
My guess is Jelly Bean, I know a lot of people are highly excited because how optimized it is over ICS.

Guess will see :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hanger84:
Nope, it's not Jelly Bean. It's something much bigger than that. Let's just say it's sort of.....Revolutionary.....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] withbloodskies:
Say What?!:what:

Hmm.. Guess I should dig a bit.

Gotta grab my Internet Shovel and Explore!
