CyanogenMod 5.0.8 for HTC Droid Incredible

Koush just updated this to Test Version 3 today.

Get it here - http://inc.sodpit.com/roms/koush/

*FYI* I did not make, nor am I trying to take credit for this ROM. Just making a thread where it can be discussed.

Post up any bugs you notice here and I can add them to the 1st post in a list.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jonnybueno:
quite a few bugs in test 3 right now

1. High pitched whining sound when making phone calls

2. No speakerphone

3. No bluetooth

4. Camera is 3mp

5. No multi-touch in stock browser or maps

6. Trackball wake and unlock has dissappeared

7. Facebook sync not working

8. Internal storage not recognized
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bblanski:
Calendar is force closing on me
[Droid Incredible Android Development] seanhassars:
i can't get MMS to download :(

EDIT: disregard, seems to be working after a reboot
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JustinD2473:
Oh wow. I guess I will hold off on installing this one then.

What has been fixed so far ? Graphic flickering issue still there ?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tcberg2010:
Maps is fc for me
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jonnybueno:
Graphical issues are fixed. You guys might wanna hold off on this one if you actually make phone calls. It's a pretty big issue, but I'm sure koush is working it out.

This release is also scoring much lower in linpack as well.... I'm getting 3.5s as opposed to 7s compared to the last test rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cronus1995:
These plus couple others.

Calendar is force closing

Can't get my contacts to sync right. 11 get pushed through but nothing else.

Also it seems a bit less responsive. Linpack was running 3.5 - 3.8 instead of my normal 8.1 - 8.3.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] qwho:
Can anyone get GPS to work? cell location works fine, but no GPS.

I will come back to this or any other roms when GPS is working.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kentoe:
You had me thinking this was a final version with the "[ROM] Cyanogen 5.0.8" thread :p
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ncwildcat:
I too noticed no GPS.

I believe that this rom is a definate step in the right direction. Once the devs can get all of the hardware working in their roms, the sky is the limit. Thanks to Koush for all of his work!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] andrew53517:
I don't have Twitter, but does anyone else here?

Someone should tweet him to look at this thread because all the bugs are listed here (I'm sure he knows most of them but maybe not all). So this would help him a lot with progress I'm sure.

Droid Incredible Rooted!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cameron_S:
Twitter is working for me and so is maps. Button unlock works too just have to hold it down for a few seconds.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JustinD2473:
It says "upgraded to test version 3" in the first post.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] seanhassars:
I didn't have any high pitched noise making calls and speakerphone worked fine for me. no FC's in Maps either.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JustinD2473:
I'm sure he knows. That is why it is still called a test version. He is working on it still.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] krunkymonkey:
I have maps working on mine. On the first boot I installed the maps update which broke it. Then I redownloaded the app pack from rom manager and installed it. It removed maps from my phone for some reason. I then installed maps from market again and it worked.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] heavensblade23:
-Calendar also FC for me. Couldn't fix it.

-Maps FC at first but after I reinstalled it from the market it worked.

-Reboot seems to turn off the phone rather than rebooting.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SifonX:
Been using this ROM since it popped up as update 3.

Noticed most of the above bugs, and got maps to install just like the others, however Google Earth is -refusing- to install properly. Also, I have the high pitched whining issue, but the ROM also isn't seeming to recognize my microphone so no one can hear me when I call.

All the progress is excellent so far, I'm very impressed with Koush's work. Can't wait till this thing is ready :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jonnybueno:
Do you see the option to enable anywhere in the settings? I can't get this working. you're on test 3 right?

I reinstalled and the high pitch squeal went away. I think wireless n or hydra kernel may be the source of that issue.

On another note, Twitter works fine for me
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SifonX:
Confirmed. It's the Hyrda kernal that's giving the issue (since I didn't even have wireless-N enabled). I installed the OCUV, but I'm willing to bet it might run deeper than just being that particular kernal.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Koush:
Thanks for the bugs guys. Incredible will most likely be in rough shape for at least a few weeks (judging from my previous experience getting the Droid build in shape).

I'm currently working on getting the glaring hardware issues fixed (ie, gps, bluetooth), then I'll move into the software issues. Those are easy :p
[Droid Incredible Android Development] D3vr04:
You're a machine, Koush!

How's the Froyo for Inc coming along?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SifonX:
Seriously Koush, you rock. The progress you've made in such a short amount of time is amazing. I really appreciate all the hard work you're doing!

Was wondering if you might have any insight as to why the Hydra kernal would be causing that issue with the phone?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hexto:
This ROM is awesome. I don't miss Sense UI at all

Sent from my HTC Incredible
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rdriese:
Koush is da man!! Thats why I went ahead and paid for ROM Manager as soon as I rooted. I know its going to be some time for a perfect incredible ROM but we need to support him early on and give him a reason to keep hookin us up with some awesome work. Thanks again!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] eleazar123:
I did the exact same thing. I want to support future development even if there isn't a stable rom on Rom Manager yet :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] russell5:
thanks koush. You rock.

I used cm on my droid then when i went to inc i missed it. But now i have it :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] danduv:
Been using this ROM since it came out last night and am quite impressed how well it works!

I had it off the charger for 10 hours and used it periodically texting, making calls, and emailing through out the day. When I got home from work I put it on the charger and had 70% remaining. That to me is priceless!

Thanks Koush!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] heavensblade23:
What kernel does this use? Stock? Stock CM?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gimpeh:
It uses the stock kernel .29
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chadstone30:
I can't add Widgets. I get FC every time. Anybody else?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dincodee:
i had the same problem, what fixed it was running the fix permissions script in Rom manager. That should do it for you just reboot the phone after running it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] doug piston:
reboot and itll work for ya
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tdiman:
Hi all,

Quick question about CyanogenMod I'd love someone with more experience than I to help out with (first android phone is the incredible, rooted 2 days ago).

Can someone look or let me know if the CyanogenMod 5 (or 6, for that matter) series supports different video codec wrappers other than 3gp? I would love to be able to use TwonkyMobile to stream video to my TV, however the TV only supports avi, mp4, DivX wrappers (among other popular ones). Ideal would be something like mp4 wrapper with h.264 codec inside.

Thanks,

-tdiman
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bblanski:
Anyone get their calendar working? Seems it is working after a reset. Almost everything I use is working, with the exception of a few apps not showing up in the market..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] heavensblade23:
I seem to have found a bug involving wifi. I noticed it won't stay connected to my G network. If I connect manually it has no problems but a few hours later it can't connect until I do it again manually. Has something to do with sleep maybe?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cnash6:
I've had this problem as well. Calendar force closes, gps doesn't work. Those are really my only two complaints with the rom. I still use it as my primary rom because it is, on the whole, very well put together
[Droid Incredible Android Development] degr80ne:
I know this is a test build and all but does any one else have their phone completely shut down when trying to use the camcorder? other than that I love this rom..thanks for hard work
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tcberg2010:
Does anyone kno if this is deodexed? Would love to start themeing this already solid rom.

Is anyone else getting corrupt zip file if they try o downlad on rom manager? Happened to me 3-4 times.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] heavensblade23:
I'm going back to stock for now. I think koush has a little too much on his plate right now to get everything working quickly.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] larsrya8:
Same here, for now. Showing off Google Navigation to my iPhone-toting coworkers doesn't need to include the phrase "Just let me do a nandroid restore to stock first...". :p

Test3 is a great start, and once the hardware gets sorted out I'll be back in a heart-beat.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ksizzle9:
Anyone know why i can't DL test 3? Says corrupt zip file. Anyone else having this error?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] grape ape:
Im getting the same thing.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cameron_S:
Are you downloading it in rom manager and its saying that?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ksizzle9:
Yes
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cameron_S:
Both the Rom and Gapps files can be found here. http://incredibleroms.com/roms/koush/ Just install them from recovery.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] binny1007:
I spoke with koush the other day and he said one of his mirrors went down, so I think as of right now there is no way to download test 3.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jtpstealth:
Mine did the same thing to me today. Was the first time I've tried to use the camcorder and it shut off as soon as I hit record. As I don't really use it often its not a huge deal but I'm sure there will be times when I really want it. But yes this rom is awesome aside from the little glitches so far. But they will be worked out in time I know.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kregstrong:
Anyone notice 5.0.8 is gona from rom manager?? Could it be an update or something?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] larsrya8:
If I had to guess... I'd say it's not an update. I *think* I read somewhere that Koush gets an email when ROM Manager encounters an error, so his inbox was probably filling up.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ZonicTH:
Test3 can be found here:

[Droid Incredible Android Development] slumpey:
Can you use ROM MANAGER to install this? If so, do you need to choose "Wipe data/cache" from the Rom Manager pop-up?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mc_88:
Yes, and it'd be a good idea to wipe. Use titanium backup to restore, but only apps

+ data. I've heard lots of ppl are having problems when restoring system data from a 2.1 ROM to a 2.2 ROM
[Droid Incredible Android Development] slumpey:
Where did the phone dialer (screenshot below) come from in this Rom?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
That is just the plain stock Android dialer. It will not work on Sense ROMs if that is what you're thinking.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cjgrode:
Is anyone having problems sending mms messages? I can receive pictures but can't send anything out. It says service is unavailable. Any ideas on how to this?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] andydprice:
Hi all,

I cannot seem to view my appointments when they are set to 'Hide' with CHT.

I have set the appointment range to 14 days, however I cannot see them when I flick the screen down to bring them into view. When I set the editor to 'Show' them I can see them but I much prefer them hid - this always worked with no problems with CHT 1.7.

Any ideas?
[EVO 4G General] You stole Boo Boo's Name:
just curious, was having problems with the current roots and ota'd now I cant root it to get my wifi back :(

really would just love a apk like the original unrevoked, as i dont need a true root just so i could get my wifi back
[EVO 4G General] patelkedar91:
Yeah I want the "un"-true root from UnrEVOked.

I just need superuser permissions to get my backed up apps and data from Titanium Backup. I don't want to use ROMs unless I see a really good one, so this suffices.

Follow UnrEVOked on twitter. There are tweets every couple hours usually. He's/She's/They're working on root for people who already updated.

The one click root might come... "at a later date" I believe he/she/they said.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acidulousreality:
Hey guys, I just got a Hero after switching from Android to winmo for a while, so I've been out of the loop since 1.6. I was able to get the phone rooted no problem, got the custom recovery image on it, got it to tether, even installed busybox. The only thing I can't seem to do is load a custom rom. Whenever I put any rom on it at all it gets stuck looping the boot screen. I tried 4 different roms, none work. The only way I can get it to boot after a custom rom is to do a nandroid restore since I backed up right after I rooted it. I've tried partitioning the sdcard from the recovery image as well, once with a swap and ext partition for apps added, and once with just the ext partition, neither of them had any affect. Anyone have any ideas on what else to try?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acidulousreality:
Solved

For those with this problem in the future, it was being caused by a2sd on my phone, specifically the dalvik cache. I did the following from the latest a2sd post:

"If you experience boot loops when you move the dalvik-cache to the cache partition, go into adb shell while the phone is boot looping and run the following commands:

a2sd nocache (if you want to put your dalvik-cache on your internal storage) or a2sd cachesd (if you want to put your dalvik-cache on your SD card)

a2sd resetcache (this clears the dalvik-cache and reboots)"

Then I ran logcat as the phone booted up to watch to make sure it didn't loop, and it took it a while but it did start up into the custom ROM.

hello i want to know which app drains my battery i have root manager so i can delete anything

i delete moxier but still my battery drian i want to know which app i can delete to improve my battery

[XPERIA X10 General] j4mm3r:
Did you try shutting off the phone? this way it saves the battery completely. My phone lasts forever when its shut down.

(hint: did you search the forums?)
[XPERIA X10 General] HunteronX:
It's obvious that the person doesn't want to turn off the phone to save battery; they want to conserve it while the phone is on.

@figofigo - you can download 'System Panel Lite' from the market. Run the app, and then look to the left of the listed apps. There is a CPU usage indicator. Uninstall apps that you don't need and ones that have a high CPU usage level. This should work.
[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
I think it was a reaction to the obvious laziness of the OP. If you'd look around the forum you would see a number of posts dealing with this issue, when I came across the post there was one with a similar topic just two topics down.
[XPERIA X10 General] figofigo:
i mean app to uninstall if someone have experience for the battery drian apps post here i know there is a lot of topic for that but all wa before thr root but now after root we can delete anything with root manager

Sent from my X10i using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
There are a few things you can do, but there are few things that will improve battery-life as much as going over the services and seeing what's running. For example having the gps activated and running location-based services will drain your battery faster than anything really.

But if you're hell-bent on purging apps one safe bet is the Moxier apps. If you don't use exchange it might be worth removing them.

But again, removing apps isn't the final solution. If you haven't then I would suggest trying the latest root with the r2b update, switching to the r2b update increased my battery-life about 5-8 times. Even with a standard image, using wireless, using bluetooth as well as making calls and listening to music I can easily get over two days of usage from it without recharging.
[XPERIA X10 General] Higgins12:
Common Guys seriously who needs a Battery Life 24 hours ++ ? I am happy if my Battery keeps for about 12-16 Hours without charging because that's almost my working Time, afterward i can charge my Phone. I'm a heavy Phone user during working Days with about 200-300 sms , 10 - 20 Phone Calls + Bluetooth in car, a bit Internet (maybe 2 Hours per day) and some this and that, So my working Day starts at 9am with 100% Battery and I'm home about 10pm with mostly 30% Battery left. So what i connect it to the charger then. Who needs a Battery with 60 Hours and more without charging ? You People not going home after work ? Terrible would be 5 Hours from 100% to 0% but that most likely won't happen anyway. Maybe email sucks a bit more on the Battery but i don't know because i still use my Blackberry for that.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] shamidude:
Hi,

I need help updating the fonts on my rooted Incredible. The way I understand it, all that needs to be done is to replace the font(s) in /system/fonts with something else. Easier said than done...

I opened an SU shell via "adb shell", and then tried to remount the /system in "rw" mode, I also updated the permissions for the font files so that I can override them. So good so far...

But when I try to copy or replace the files, I run into all kinds of problems:

* First of all, the rooted phone doesn't have "cp" so I can't do the usual copy operations like a regular *nix machine (did I miss something during the root process).

* Then I saw examples of using the "cat" command to replace the old files, but that resulted in "write: No space left on device" error, which I think has to do with how the memory image is loaded/packed??

* Then I saw examples of using the "dd" command, to copy the new files over the old files. This went further, since I can see the new timestamp when using "ls -l /system/fonts". However, when I reboot the phone, the old fonts show back again.

* I also saw an example in another thread titled "Hebrew support" in this forum (sorry, don't know how to cross-post URLs), but I didn't know how to follow the instructions there.

I would really appreciate it if someone can help me out.

- how can I update the system image? (do I really need a signed ZIP file?)

- is it too late for me to add "cp" to my rooted phone?

- the 10 minutes rooting video had us copy the "busybox" file to the sdcard, but it didn't say what to do with it. can I use it as a replacement for "cp"? (do I have to go back to "adb recovery"?)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] seanhassars:
You can only modify /system while in clockwork recovery after you're rooted and have run the unrevoked recovery flash tool
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TNS201:
Yea, you have to push them to the phone in clockwork recovery.

you can put them in your tools folder where adb is located or put them on your SDcard and push them from there.

I attached the fonts I used. I used these on my Moto Droid I used to have and now they are on my dInc. This font is not as bold as the stock font and a little smaller. This font i believe is the "Droid" font. It looks pretty nice, see my screenshot and look under icons and at the clock and then compare to your phone.

Here is the commands you would do at command prompt, not from ADB shell.

For these commands to work, you have to place the fonts in your tools folder where ADB is.

adb push Clockopia.ttf /system/fonts/
adb push DroidSans.ttf /system/fonts/
adb push DroidSans-Bold.ttf /system/fonts/
adb push DroidSansFallback.ttf /system/fonts/
adb push DroidSansMono.ttf /system/fonts/
adb push DroidSerif-Bold.ttf /system/fonts/
adb push DroidSerif-BoldItalic.ttf /system/fonts/
adb push DroidSerif-Italic.ttf /system/fonts/
adb push DroidSerif-Regular.ttf /system/fonts/

you might be able to try this command

adb push *.ttf /system/fonts/

Im not sure if that would work or not, maybe someone else could confirm.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] shamidude:
Thank a lot for the reply...

So is this the correct thread that I should follow now: "Unrevoked team: Recovery reflash tool (updated!)" to install the "clockwork recovery"? I am assuming this will allow the phone to start recovery with adbd running, so that I can connect to it from my PC while in recovery. Correct?

It took me forever to get the adbd running in recovery as part of rooting my phone, and I am not sure that I can replicate these steps again (at least not easily). I was this close to copying the font files while in "adb recovery" mode, but then I chickened out, because I didn't want to risk the rooting process by doing something that doesn't match the root instructions.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] seanhassars:
yes, as long as you have actually gained root and have the superuser/busybox properly installed. just follow that thread and you'll have new fonts in no time, and I can assure you that it will work because I changed mine too.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Oozura:
If using clockword recovery, dont forget to mount system.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] money226:
Put them all in a folder named fonts. Put the folder in tools. Boot into recovery, mount system. Then: adb push fonts /system/fonts. Unmount system then reboot.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ezy1022:
Where can I get/download these font files?

EDIT im a retard and didnt see the .zip sorry
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ezy1022:
so where can i go to download other font types?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] compnird:
Perhaps this is an obvious questions to some... Can I use any TTF font? I have a font I created that is my own handwriting. This would be pretty cool to have available in my Phone... It is a standard TTF font.

Possible? I tried to search but didn't see anything specifically mentioned if a font has to be a specific type or if I can use anything.

Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ezy1022:
it should work fine, you just need to rename the file to DroidSans.ttf and DroidSans-Bold.ttf and replace the ones that are in /system/fonts
[Droid Incredible Android Development] shamidude:
Thanks for the help seanhassars and TNS201: I am using the ClockworksMod recovery, and I was able to update the fonts (using the "update from ZIP" option).

I can see Arabic letters, but unfortunately, they don't look correct (they are disjoined, when they actually should be connected together). Now I am looking around for patched libwebcore.so to fix this issue, and thanks to nandroid backup, I can experiment with changing the libraries as much as I can.
