Thanks for the post. I couldn't get the aroma installer version to work.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fallendown:
No Problem, I was uploading the fix when you posted anyways :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Rushead:
Anyone else getting a funky lockscreen?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] thktanuki:
Yep. I get garbled text on lockscreen widgets. Not enough to put me off of the rom, though. Funky lockscreen is fairly minor, compared to some other bugs, lol.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Rushead:
Yeah, nbd overall. Still an awesome rom. Just wondering.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fallendown:
I've been running this since last night and haven't seen any problems with the lockscreen or text in general. Which kernel are you using? I'm using Aero's v13..
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Rushead:
Same kernel.

Also noticed the BT issue where no sound output to BT. Toggling outputs during call fixes it. Same thing with kangdemnation. More of an annoyance cuz I always forget to do it :p

Nice work on this overall. Thanks 72!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fallendown:
I actually got the funny text on my lockscreen, when I rebooted it was fine. My lockscreen kinda froze then the funny text appeared.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Zelmo88:
Had the garbled text on my clock/weather widget. Just flashed Aero's v13 kernel. I remember the garbled text on another ROM, but can't remember which one (My name is Zelmo88, and I have a flashing problem!).
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] baling:
This rom is awesome great volume, stable data, fast, great battery life and wifi hot spots works. Su killall drmserver is still needed sometimes but overall it's stable. Great work.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Dark7star:
For the life of me I cant find were I can fix the camera.

I fat fingered the front facing camera icon and now the camera will not work.

Do i just clear the cache?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Triscuit:
If its force closing just goto apps and clear the data/cache from the camera
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsua98:
There's a button for that!

Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So, we'll hunt him, because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Dark Knight.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Rushead:
It seems like lately there's a rash of newbs who don't read (or don't know how) nor do they follow protocol.

I got your back, Triscuit.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Dark7star:
Yea, those noobs are really messing this thread up.

>_<
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] SkinnyT:
It's every thread lately. It sucks because I've booted just about every rom in this forum and posted maybe 6 times and the only reason being that I couldn't find an answer already posted.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tj13:
I've been running this for two days now. Everything I use works very well, thank you !
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Triscuit:
I think we are just complaining in general skinny, as long as you do your searching first, ask nicely, and don't demand help.....we are happy to help. I bet people are just asking the same questions over and over without even trying to search, I personally haven't seen the camera fix posted in a while so you are forgiven....this time :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] SkinnyT:
Oh, I'm not defending the noobs. I'm trying to say that over the past few years I've always searched for and found an answer to my issues. I find it even more frustrating when I have to read through several pages of people asking the same questions over and over. A lot of these issues carry over from rom to rom depending on the flavor.

Besides that, after running this rom for about a day now, I love it. It's smooth and snappy and no random reboots yet. I have had to restart nova launcher a few times, but that's no problem.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Jizzylax:
Thank you for thanking him when asking for thanks.

I will thank you.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Dark7star:
If I cant find something is the only time I ask.

Now lets look at what happened after I posted a noob question. We have all these posts complaining about one simple question I ask. :silly:

Just so we are clear. I did my search and I couldn't find what I was looking for. I read the OP about the camera app and the information I was looking wasn't there eather. Not that it was the OP fault. It was just me being a noob and I couldn't remember the correct term to search for. :crying:

So to all you wonderful DEV's! I think it is amazing what you do. I very honored to be able to fallow the progression of your work and watch these ROM's being built up over time. In the future i will keep my questions to the Q&A thread.

Keep up the awesome work!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Triscuit:
That's good you did everything you should have before asking, XDA is a place for questions and information. I just don't like it when people are lazy and ask questions first then search! You on the other hand are a good noob......we are all noobs here sometimes :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] thktanuki:
Okay, after a few days of usage, here are some specific problems I have noted:

Sometimes the camcorder doesn't work. A reboot fixes this.

IRC clients have a helluva time connecting. Some flat-out won't. I'm not totally sure if that's the app problem, or something in the rom.

DSP or whatever has literally influence on the sound. On or off, boost or no boost, equalizer or no. No effect whatsoever.

Also, as has been already stated, the lockscreen text gibberish.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kinz1980:
Just to be clear as mud, flash this zip like any other zip?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsua98:
Yessir!

Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So, we'll hunt him, because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Dark Knight.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jekern77:
Seems to me, every rom I've tried lately has a DSP or beats system. Also seems to me, they have no effect on streaming music, only music ON the device. Is this the way its always been? :confused:
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Steve One:
Dsp works with play music
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Triscuit:
I have noticed that too, everything I use (Apollo, play music, power amp etc) but Pandora it has no effect, I think its because the DSP manager needs a "dedicated" player and Pandora is just a streamer
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Note2Frat:
Thanks everyone for stepping up and answering questions during the week, since I can only work on Dev stuff on the weekends. (Not always though)

I fixed the OP with a working Zip of the Rom. Thanks fallendown for hosting it till i got it up.

Also just to let everyone know. I disabled CPU rendering so I am not sure if people have it selected under Developer Settings, not sure if this causes the text glitch. I tested this on YouTube and works flawlessly.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fallendown:
No problem dude. Without you, Aero, Nits, CS and others we'd just have boring run of the mill devices. I'm glad I could help
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kinz1980:
I downloaded from our guest host last night. I saw that you mentioned about the cpu rendering and turning it off. I looked under developer and was unable to find it. Is it somewhere else? Btw really digging the Rom so far. I really liked having the options in aroma as well. I had a few random reboots but that is it so far.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jamminjon82:
I believe it's actually "force gpu rendering" and it's towards the middle of the list in developer options
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] stamos*bp:
hopefully this isn't a noob question, but i've got my work email setup via exchange, but for some reason, my calendar isn't showing up in the calendar app. any fix around this? thanks in advance!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tj13:
This is a general question that really isn't ROM specific. So yes it doesn't belong here.

Go in to settings for this account. Make sure there is a check in Sync Calendar.

.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] stamos*bp:
i'm asking only because i've set up this account before in other roms, but for some reason, my calendar doesn't show up for only this rom in particular. didn't mean to be confusing.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Note2Frat:
Try to remove your account and then add it again
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] luzfero:
I'm not so sure about it not being related, I've noticed some odd behavior with the stock email app : email not coming through/sent, no notification when it does work. In fact this is the only rom that I have used where the gmail app works better than the stock.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jtsrtr13:
Man this Rom is sweet! Super fast, buttery smooth, and awesome selection of tweaks. Great job on best OP evar as well.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tj13:
It is working as it should for me.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tactfulcactus:
Easily the smoothest CM9 rom I've used. And to think I was going to go back to stock... thanks for delivering me from evil! :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Linch89:
The screen renders do not work
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] RsOnAndroid:
Wrong thread.. trying to delete
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Rushead:
WTF! :banghead: :banghead:

Stop being a wuss & try it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] luzfero:
Ok I've been running this Rom since it was posted and I've noticed a couple of things:

-Battery life is about half as long as regular CM9 (seriously having to charge twice a day)

-Screen freezes when I'm trying to do multiple things at once (playing on-device music while downloading an app and trying to set an alarm) then reboots the launcher

-Stock email works sporadically

-Getting random FC on apps: keep having to fix permissions on the Maps app and on 3rd party browsers to get them to work.

So far I like the speed and the tweaks but I'm getting tired of the random screen freezing. I'm going to do another wipe and test out the various kernals I installed to see if any of them was the problem. (hopefully I can find something)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] prototype7:
It could be a kernel issue, Aero's v14 is kind of unstable imo, been running v12 with ics adreno drivers and not having any of those issues.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tj13:
I'm not having any issues. I am running the rom out of the box. No kernel swaps.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] brd912:
I didn't get the wifi calling option?

Jellybeaned OuT!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] blk_jack:
Creator & author of Mimicry here. To clear up some confusion, since a few people have been dropping by the Mimicry IRC channel asking questions (and I had no idea 72ls1 had publicly posted the port).

First of all, this is a port, so there will likely be issues that aren't encountered in the original version. Second, I've asked 72ls1 to post that this IS a port in the OP (as well as giving proper credit since I'm not mentioned once). Finally, please be aware that some of the links in the OP link to the original Mimicry thread [link]. Namely, some of the Download links. I'm assuming 72ls1 just copy/pasted the Mimicry OP posts and missed some URLs to change. This should be changed immediately since I can only imagine people flashing the original version (for the Vision) on their Inc2s and having things go completely to hell.

That said, I hope you like it & that it works well on the Inc 2! :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] prototype7:
Thanks for the great ROM in that case :p
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Linch89:
I think there was some mishap I don't think 72 would blatantly do that. That being said thanks for the rom bro!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] thktanuki:
So after experimenting with some other roms, and coming back after a full-wipe, and using the v14 kernel, all of these issues I previously mentioned stopped being issues. :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kingsley1:
Any chance of future Andromadus Mimcry updates being ported over to Incredible 2?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsua98:
Hey 72ls1, does this have the new adreno drivers?

Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So, we'll hunt him, because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Dark Knight.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ThePhantom97:
Ok, I have used this for a couple of days now to test it out. I could not find a single problem with it at all. The only reason I am jumping back to PA is the lack of nav bar/soft keys disabled. This may sound silly, but I like the nav bar because some of the LED's on my soft keys don't light up and they bother me to look at...lol. If this rom had that mod I would probably stay with it. I don't use FFC or camcorder at all and rarely use the camera so losing those is not a problem for me. I think this rom is very stable and responsive and something I may use more in the future.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Note2Frat:
If there are any updates I will do them on the weekend, only time I have.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] feadolphus:
OK this Rom is great so far. Bravo!

Google Voice

Anyone having issues with Google Voice? I can send and receive text messages from my Google Voice number but I can't call or receive calls from it.

Thanks in advance

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tryo0004:
Big huge thanks for this rom. I had gone back to cm 7 right away after every rom I tried until this, mainly because of Bluetooth issues on all and persistent lag on the sense ics roms. This is my DD now. Despite lack of governor options, the included kernel is snappy with good battery life.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsua98:
Just flash a different kernel

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] thktanuki:
A totally random thought, but would it be possible to get the navigation buttons/disabled hardware lights from PA in this?

I kind of like 'em.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kingsley1:
I use Google Voice, and have had no problems utilizing it with this ROM. Have you tried clearing the gVoice App Data? Ensuring gVoice is active to make calls? Or even wiping & reflashing your phone?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ThePhantom97:
Me too. :highfive:
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tryo0004:
C'mon man, I think you could read my post and figure out that I'm capable of flashing different kernels. My statement actually was not made out of ignorance, but after experimenting with several versions of aeroevan's ics kernels.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsua98:
Sorry for thinking you didn't know, but I have governor options on this rom, maybe you need to download a third party cpu-setting software such as incredicontrol?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tryo0004:
Ahhh....l see...I didn't mean there were literally no options for governors. Just meant there were less governor options on the included kernel than in some other available kernel builds, e.g. smartassv2.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsua98:
Try tiamat's ics kernel

User Error...

Thanks Kingsley, I'll have to chalk this one up to user error.

Receiving calls:

I was trying to call my google number from a number that was registered under my google voice acct. That's why it kept going straight to the google voice prompt. Tried another number and I got through.

Making calls:

I can make calls using my google number only if I call out my contacts of if I dial using the area code. If I just dial with out the area code it uses my other number. Not a big deal though.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tryo0004:
Good looking out. I never tried it because it is relatively old but having very good results thus far. Seems to fix some system and call volume issues I was experiencing.

Anyone else having camera problems? The front face causes camera to force close then the camera will not work at all. Thoughts?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ThePhantom97:
Front Facing Camera will not work. :(
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] SkinnyT:
I've got one for you guys.....

The other day I realized that I haven't run a sense ROM in awhile so ibdecides to try UKB 1.3. Although it was nice, it wasn't for me. I then restored a backup of this rom here. Since then my wifi/data cut out after a few minutes of being in my pocket. I'll have to drop wifi and re-enable it to get it going again. I've tried a few kernels, fixed permissions and cleared the dalvik and cache with no luck yet. Any ideas short of having to wipe and flash again would be appreciated.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Rushead:
Which kernels? You could always super wipe & retry the nandroid.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] SkinnyT:
I've tried Evans V12, both 13s and V14. I'm running on the old Tiamat kernel now.

I did a super wipe before flashing the nandroid as well.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Rushead:
I'd stay away from v13s. I recall something bad about them, I don't remember what.

Honestly, I'd reflash. I know you don't want to hear that, but from my experience, it's not worth trying to get around it. If there's something screwy, it's best to start fresh.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] SkinnyT:
Reflashing isn't the worst thing to worry about. I usually bounce between a few different roms each week anyway. I was just hoping for an easy fix or maybe something I wasn't yet aware of. Thanks for the help though.

Wireless Tether

Is anyone able to run any wireless tether apps? When I try it it looks like its up and running but it won't broadcast the ssid and my other devices cant see my phone. I checked the lgos and it states:

Activating WiFi Interface

failed

App im using is Wireless Tether 2.0.7

Installed Wireless Tether 2.0.8 Experimental and it worked!

Thanks

I see a lot of people suggest this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.szym.barnacle&hl=en

I have not tried it, but I don't use the wifi tether at the moment.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] olorolo:
Just get GrooveIP it works much better anyway
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ThePhantom97:
Just thought I would share and see if it compares to everyone else running this rom. This is with wifi and gps on all the time.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] aristonhs:
Today I failed again flashing this ROM. Is there any special requirements to flash this ROM? like must have ext partition?

I already download twice and twice I failed to flash, first time I thought the file was corrupted somehow but after the second time.. *confused..

Any suggestions? Or something I missed from the op page information..

Thanks for making incredible 2 worthwhile.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Rushead:
No special requirements. What happens when it fails?

After wiping data, cache, format system, and dalvik cache, I flashed the zip file.

As I remembered, it failed after opening package update, i thought it supposed to open aroma installer but it never did.

Dunno what to do, is there something i missed?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Note2Frat:
Correct it has an aroma installer, Did you compare the m5 this is on the download page? Should bring up aroma to install, if not then something may be wrong with your download. That is my guess.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kingsley1:
Has anyone else noticed problems with their internet connectivity? For some reason 3G and WiFi sometimes stop working at random on my Incredible 2.

This sounds like you might have the version thas was first posted. It failed to start the installer. Look back through the posts. There was another link to download this from. It's were I downloaded it from.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kingsley1:
That's a possibility. I installed a modd'ed copy put up by another user early on. I'll reflash tonight, and see what happens. Thanks for the assist!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andrew1263:
Been running the rom for a few days now and its awesome! Pretty smooth and good battery life. Think I found my new daily rom.

One annoying thing I have found (it may be an ics feature) is that when you select a contact it automatically dials and you can't edit it unless you go to the people app. I have looked but I couldn't find a way to change it.. is it possible to change this?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Note2Frat:
Yes that is an ICS feature
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jekern77:
Try long pressing the contact?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andrew1263:
Darn, its such an annoying feature

Yes I have, but it does nothing
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] SkinnyT:
Try clicking the profile icon. That should take you right to the contacts app.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] thktanuki:
I'm not sure what magic I worked before, but I can't seem to get DSPManager to actually do anything, and Power Amp doesn't detect it, at all.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] prototype7:
DSP won't work with PowerAmp, PowerAmp has its own equalizer.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] thktanuki:
So, I'd need something like Beats installed, instead, to get the extra settings?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] prototype7:
Beats is pretty much DSP with different settings, so that wouldn't work either. Tbh DSP seems to distort sound a lot, PowerAmp sounds great on its own if you play around with the settungs. I can't use any other music player because PowerAmp sounds better imo.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Gattaca7:
Should I flash the leaked ICS firmware before installing this rom?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bsmitty83:
You can use dsp with power amp, you have to go under settings/audio and uncheck the direct volume control box, I agree that the built in eq is far superior but if you want to use beats or dsp this will work

Sent from my Incredibly still working
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] baggar11:
I'm wondering the same thing. I just flashed this and noticed that my dialer reboots the phone when making or receiving phone calls. Like this rom a lot otherwise.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tj13:
I've been running this for weeks now. Haven't had issues with anything. I am on the leaked fw.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] thktanuki:
So, umm, IS there a reasonably easy way to make this a thing?[Edit] By this, I was referring to being able to have the nav buttons + disabled soft buttons.

Or to be able to install PA over Mimicry, so I can have my camera and eat it too?
