It's getting increasingly difficult to keep everything up to date with CM10.1 on the Inc and the latest issues with graphical glitches are having me have second thoughts about supporting CM10.1 on this device. Evervolv works as is with the new drivers properly. For now I'm going to mess around with fixing incredikernel for the newer drivers.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
It's about time to retire my support of CM10.1 on the DInc. I've hit a snag in CM10.1 and reverting drivers is not an option in my opinion. You have Carbon and EV and PAC-Man if you need an updated build.

I prefer HTC One and I think Sense 5 is better than Touchwiz but both are good phones and will have pretty solid AOSP support I think.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BarackMitzvah:
I'm just always stuck thinking that ill wait for the next phone that is that much better. But its an endless cycle. In your opinion, is the One the phone to switch for? It looks really nice. But maybe their next iteration will sport a shiny snapdragon 800, SD card slot, etc, you know? Ahh, I'm doing it again -_-
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Hardware has gotten to a point that better hardware will just give better benchmarks with an unnoticeable performance gain, maybe slightly better FPS in games but that's about it.

I like the One. No SD card, slightly slower CPU/GPU speeds though vs the GS4. Though on stock the One might be a bit smoother vs GS4. No menu button on the One but people have hacked it into the bottom of the screen near the HTC logo. Also, HTC supports long press home for legacy menu applications as of 4.2.2. Both phones have Android 4.2.2 (SGS4 officially, and HTC One with a leak). Also it sounds like both phone will have a Google Experience version on the GSM variants only.

It's a toss up but the better build and speakers of the One as well as the bootloader was unlockable on the HTC One sold me on it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BarackMitzvah:
Yeah, I get it. But I'm thinking in the sense of future proof. Like the Inc was great in that category.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
The next Nexus. It will have development for a while but nothing as far as third party skins. The Inc lasted a while because we made it last a while. A lot of devices could be that way. I think the One will last a while.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zachf714:
The one and the S3 will be the big legacy devices in the future based on development now
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
The S3 is last year's and the One is this year's. Why are you comparing two years as legacy?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zachf714:
In the years to come like 2.5 years from now. Both had a bang of a start with sales and development

Basically they will be the two big legacy devices in the long run when they become legacy deviced
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zombolt:
What about the internal battery? Can you change it out if you need to?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nokiabolt:
Tiny, your 20130516 build is flawless on my (now mom's) Inc. No problems whatsoever. Thank you so much for your great work. If I had known how well it ran for my mom, I would never have switched off of the Inc (well maybe in 2017 when Verizon switches off 3G or something like that? Lol). The final build is freaking great!

[Droid Incredible Android Development] slak?:
Well I guess this is another nudge towards getting a new phone.

Thanks Tiny and everybody else who made this phone keep up with even a lot of newer stuff on the market. Getting 3 years out of a phone is acceptable in my opinion.

So what is everybody predicting as a good Verizon phone for long term support, the Galaxy S 4? Google is making a google experience device or whatever out of it, so that should help.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ohredwood:
With all the update, Tiny had made me forget about getting something new, but alas the sinking feeling is coming back. I've been eyeing up that Htc one, real bad, but I really think VZ has the best network hands down, unfortunately their stupidity on getting the phone I want and the games they are playing with when they decide to get it, is got me on the brink of toating my buisness to ATT.

I really don't have any big complaints with the rom as it is, just the couple small typical stuff that has been brought up before but no dealbreakers. The only kind of weird thing on this lastest build is, when I get a call once in a while the phone just stays black, but it's ringing. Then sometimes, it looks like the matrix, theyre are symbols and letters, numbers and such that are all scrambled while the ringer is going off. Weird, lol, but hey, not a big deal really, unique I guess. Hell some guys would probably download a program to make their phone do that, haha.

Thanks again Tiny for all your work, and time put in for this phone...

My Inc functions in every way I need it to, but when I play with my girlfriend's S3 I think two things:

"man I really hate this interface"

and

"wow this is fast"
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mh0520:
So, I tried to rebuild Mms.apk with the SMS splitting set to false and the ROM is now not finding the apk. I have installed it by copying it into the /system/app/ directory and also by copying it into the ROM .zip file and flashing the ROM again. Neither seemed to have worked.

I decompiled this using apktool, changed the setting to false in the configuration .xml file and then recompiled using apktool. Can anyone suggest why this wouldn't work or point me in the right direction as to where to look?

Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Actually, I have an idea. Here's what I've done for system apps in the past.

1. Take the original apk

2. Decompile it

3. Make the changes.

4. Recompile it to a different filename.

5. Use 7-zip to pull the resources.arsc from the new apk into the old apk (You might want to backup the original before doing this).

6. Push the old apk that you drag and dropped the resources.arsc from to your device in recovery and reboot.

This is likely due to the META-INF folder that doesn't get created when you recompile the apk.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zombolt:
Went back to cm7 9-3-12 pons with 8-28-11 gapps. Now it says no route found if I try to get public transit directions in Maps. Any ideas here?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Sounds like a Maps issue. Did it happen in CM10.1? And this should be posted as a Q&A topic unless you're positive it's ROM related.

Either way, it's possibly related to the lack of support of the newer Maps API in Android 2.3. Some apps work with older OS versions but don't support all the newer features exclusive to ICS or JB and later, gmail for instance.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mh0520:
I'll give that a shot and let you know how it goes. Thanks, tiny!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mh0520:
This didn't seem to work. Is it possible that you meant that I should take the resources.arsc from the old apk and drop in in the new apk that I had just recompiled?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zachf714:
You should be able to pull the meta-inf from the old one and put it in the new one
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mh0520:
Sorry, I should be more specific. Copying that file from the newly modified apk into the original apk and pushing that into the system folder allowed me to be able to see the messaging app. So in that sense it worked but my edits to the XML did not remove the SMS splitting. Here's what's in my mms_config.xml file. Do I also need to change the smsToMmsTestThreshold to 2 or change enableMultipartSMS to false?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mms_config version="4">
<bool name="enabledMMS">true</bool>
<int name="maxMessageSize">307200</int>

<int name="maxImageWidth">1296</int>
<int name="defaultSMSMessagesPerThread">500</int>
<int name="defaultMMSMessagesPerThread">50</int>

[Droid Incredible Android Development] zachf714:
I would try one and if that doesn't work try the other
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kramer56:
Ok I been getting the low storage message each time an app updates, I have the fix for it but haven't used it in so long. Can I just reboot n load it or do I have to reload the rom n Gapps before I do this fix. I thought at one time I could just do the fix but it's been so long I forget.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NYC Coyote:
If I remember from the Gingerbread days you SHOULD be able to just load it and it will work. It will just take a lot longer to do it's job.

I would love to see how the GS4 brought back "move to sd".. because I won't be able to use this ROM until we get that back.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mh0520:
I tried this just now, as well. No luck. I'm not sure why but it's not showing up in my app drawer.

I noticed that when I followed tiny's suggest and then I recompiled my edited apk, then decompiled again that the mms_config.xml file still had enableSplitSMS = true. So, I'm sure that's the issue. I'm not sure why that is, though. I'm assuming I must be missing something somewhere that needs to be edited.

---------- Post added at 10:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:29 PM ----------

So, I think I've found a solution. I followed these directions except that in addition to the resources.arsc file I copied the mms_config.xml file that was created when the apk was built from my new apk to the old one. So, I copied those two files into the old apk, in the correct directories, then pushed it to system/app/. I rebooted into recovery wiped cache and fixed permissions. I'm not sure if these two steps were necessary but I think a reboot was at least required to get Messaging to show up again.

Low Volume on latest 5/16 version..

Hi,

I installed the latest Tiny's CM10.1 (5/16) on a coworker's HTC inc.

Everything works fine, except that the speakerphone volume (for ring tones, alarms, music, etc) is very very low.

He downloaded an app called Volume+ and that fixes it, making it a lot louder, but the problem is that after a 2-3 days,

the speakerphone volume reverts back to low again and he needs to reboot the phone in order to get the volume loud again.

Does any body know the solution to this? Or will installing another ROM help?

Thanks very much!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
If you manually raise and lower the volume with the volume keys does it go back to what it's supposed to be? This is an issue prevalent after phone calls and that's been the workaround for a while. It's an issue that's been on Jellybean ROM's for a while. If that doesn't work around the issue I'm not sure what it might be.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Just wondering why it's so important to disable the split SMS feature. The carriers usually split it at their level if the messages are too large. Do you have a special form of SMS that sends SMS larger than 160 characters?

You should only need to change that one line enablesplitsms from true to false and push it in recovery then reboot to ROM. You can wipe cache and fix permissions but that's not really needed. Fixing permissions is a good idea unless you manually just chmod 644 that one apk then you don't even really need to do that.

The reason I suggested copied the resources file from the new apk to the old apk is that I found a tip for the framework-res as dropping in the new framework-res ended breaking my ROM but dropping the old framework-res with the new resources file worked and applied the change.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mh0520:
Thanks for the info. I just wanted to set it back that way for my own aesthetic preference. I know there's probably not a real major difference in terms of function. I just prefer it that way.

Plus, I'm trying to pick up any new info on android that I can and it was a good excuse to learn some new tricks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] neozen21:
He can raise the volume to the max, via the volume keys or via the sliders in the sound settings, even at the max setting it's just still really really low (compared to other phones, including mine).

Somehow, Volume+ can temporarily fix the issue, but like I said, after 2-3 days, it reverts back to low again and he has to restart his phone and use Volume+ to increase the volume again..

What could Volume+ be changing and why it doesn't stick? Really strange...

Well, thanks for all your hard work Tiny!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Do you have a dinc or a different device? I don't think the Dinc has ever outputted that high of volume to begin with. One way to be sure is to test on stock Sense but Sense 1 is so boring.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ChemicalSymphony:
My dinc is louder than my nexus 7 and 10 lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lukkypuggy:
Nexus 7 isn't loud, even with nexus louder my RAZR M beats it.

But I did notice this morning that it is rather loud.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zombolt:
I use my dinc as a ghetto blaster on the reg. The incredikernel audio boost makes the speaker sound like a different eq setting.. I'm curious about the mechanics of it. If it's like fastcharge and changes the voltage sent to the speaker???
[Droid Incredible Android Development] el6006:
I effed up my Galaxy S3. My Fascinate is broken. My Droid Pro is in a landfill somewhere. The almighty Incredible rises once again. Thanks Tiny for keeping the Inc alive!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zombolt:
My dinc hit a tile floor and the screen shattered.. Anybody looking to get rid of a dinc they don't use anymore?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GnatGoSplat:
I might be interested in yours if it's an SLCD version.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zombolt:
It is slcd. The flash leds and assembly surrounding the flash is melted. The usb port will not adb or charge the battery. The ring that sticks out and plastic sublense is gone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] -SmithTech-:
I picked one up on glyde.com a couple of months ago for 65.00. Was planning on using it as a dedicated NAV but ended up using my old thunderbolt instead. I'd be willing to let it go for the 65.00 I paid for it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Osiris19:
I got dincs for $20, one amoled, other SL CD.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zombolt:
Are they s=off already? Which screen is better? I only have experience with sldc. 20$ sounds proper. I was contemplating whether to keep using dincs or pick up a used 4g phone that can run cm10.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Osiris19:
One was, the other wasn't and for some reason was a ***** to get s=off. Amoled is definitely better personally. I like the colors better.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GnatGoSplat:
No problems with the NAND though? How much would you want for it? My phone has bad NAND and is working fine with Data on SD, but I could never sell it because it has my personal data personally burned into its NAND which is stuck in a read-only state!

IMO, SLCD is WAY better than AMOLED. I had both and got rid of the AMOLED. SLCD has a finer pitch screen, much smoother, the AMOLED looks grainy and has a "screen door effect" due to pentile matrix. The colors are also really over-saturated and un-natural looking, and viewing angles are not as good (distinct blueish/greenish hue at angles). If you can find a Droid RAZR M at a store... its screen looks almost identical to an AMOLED DInc in terms of color, graininess, and pixel density so you can see if you like it (RAZR M is my "daily driver", love it, but don't love the AMOLED).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zombolt:
How do I give you an answer on the nand question? Not sure what that does
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
The nand is flash memory. His flash memory is messed up as he said earlier today and he can't write to it. Basically cache and data are messed up as well as the internal emmc so he can't actually write to it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GnatGoSplat:
Yep, what Tiny said. If your NAND was bad, you'd probably know it. ;) PM me if you have an idea of how much you might want for it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] autre_pensee:
I'm selling one for 40$. I am in Southern California. Screen is impeccable, sides have a few dents.

---------- Post added at 02:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:06 PM ----------

After 3 years with my DInc, I decided to move away from Verizon and move on to the non-subsidized phone system. I bought a Nexus 4 and got a month to month Tmobile sim card.

That being said, Tiny, you're great. I wanted to thank you for your time, your roms and kernels, your patience answering questions, fixing bugs, etc, and all the efforts that you put in order to allow us to keep using our phones with up-to-date OSes.

Thanks a bunch and good bye to this great community that seems solely dedicated to helping each other.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Chehri:
I've been using this ROM for quite some time now and I really got to thank you again for it, it's amazing. I love the new SMS features that were added in 4.2.x. The browser is hit and miss, still usable though.

How did you manage to do that? I've dropped mine on concrete floor from my pocket and so far no damage.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zombolt:
I believe it's the comprehensive stress over time. This dinc has been dropped countless times, as well as thrown against the ground. I suspect the tile was parrelel to the screen on impact. I've since gotten used to the cracked ness but it is quite annoying.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mhejek:
Tiny .could you point me build.prop for saving battery?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BarackMitzvah:
I believe build prop is in /system
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ohredwood:
Mine looks brand new, if I take it out of it's otterbox defender case. It does bulk up the phone size some but, has kept my phone pristine condition since almost day one when I bought it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tekweezle:
Bought my mom and gf hyperion extended battery rubberized cases on ebay for 8.99$ each. Good investment if you drop your phone often.

With some 3500 mah batteries, i am keeping these phones in service as long as possible.

I don't know if anything has changed specifically but since after the April releases of this ROM, my battery life has been much improved.

Thanks again.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] autre_pensee:
Hey guys,

Back for one or two last messages.

The person who wants to buy my phone is a cricket user. Can this rom work as-is on cricket?

I browsed online and mostly on the cricketuser forum and apparently there are a few cricket specific froyo roms on there. I just wanted to make sure everything would work with tiny's CM10.1

Thanks again to this great community!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zombolt:
Doubtful. There's a stock rom around that will accomplish this however
[Droid Incredible Android Development] danrodz:
You can get the phone yo work on cricket but the initial programming is way easier with the stock ROM. Once the first steps are done you can flash to your hearts content. I've had cricket for years starting with a droid eris lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BarackMitzvah:
Is development still going on for this rom?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] musical_chairs:
If you want active developent, try Evervolv nightlies:

http://evervolv.com/devices/inc

Or one of zach's ROMs here on xda, he is still working on the Inc AFAIK. tiny has been trying to move on from the Inc for a while now and I think he may have succeeded.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Evervolv is ideal right now due to updated drivers unless you prefer the more features of the other ROMs.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jacobsensei:
Any chance to flash EV over yours Tiny?

[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:

[Droid Incredible Android Development] BarackMitzvah:
How is evervolv? I've never used it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tekweezle:
flashed evervolv 6-25 onto my wireless only Dinc over tiny 5-16. flash was succesful but since it uses a different launcher, lost all my icons and widgets. not a big deal.

doesn;t feel as polished as the Tiny build but i suspect there will be a learning curve. occasional force closes with regards to playstore and clock widget. camera preview seems a little slower as well.

existence of new video drivers didnt solve my issue with the vulkano player not able to display video(same issue as with Tiny's rom)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
There's a thread for Evervolv by the way.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] musical_chairs:
You'll have to wipe data for the clock to get it to quit FC'ing, other than that I haven't had any issues.

Hey tiny how is the htc one? Is it easy to get rooted? Battery life good?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Rooting is pretty easy. Both the HTCdev method and two S-OFF methods work. Battery life is pretty good for me. Better than the Galaxy Nexus but not great.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kb8no:
Tiny, can you unlock the htc1 sim card? Can you use it on the att, tmo, & Intl bands?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zachf714:
The tmo and att is the exact same hardware as International so it should work .. You can use a tmo ROM on the international version and so on
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kb8no:
They have different 3g bands. You won't get 3g in Europe with an att phone unless the radios have the band. So the question is if att htc1 has a radio that can use tmo and Intl 3g bands.

How about unlock of sim card?

[MENTION=3500210]tiny4579[/MENTION] I just want to THANK you for all your hard work on the DInc since the cm7(6?) days, for your amazing incredikernel and also yur gingertiny kernel's as well. you have not only demonstrated to HTC but also to many other EOL phones that we can go far off from what is expected from a phone that shipped with Eclair, we have tasted Jellybean that itself is a wonder to be very proud of, also thanks to pons for his hard work while he could we appreciate all yur hard work guys, im not leaving the Dinc behind but im not used to such a small phone now, since i got my GS2. anyways, thanks again mates! i wish i could donate to yu, and [MENTION=4674343]zachf714[/MENTION] thanks for yu bringing other roms into our Inc, much appreciated!

Flowed Away From My Samsung GS2 E4GT!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Kaepernick:
Same here. Recently got a tablet and will mainly be using that from now on. The Dinc was a great device, but it was mainly because of you guys that it lasted as long as it did. Cm 10.1 was not something I thought I'd ever see working, let alone working so well. Not to mention all the other variations of the other roms that you guys worked on/are working on. Thanks again for putting so much of your own time and effort into keeping it alive.
