Success with BFS #2

I actually got BFS #2 to install by doing this:

I booted into Clockwork Recovery

I manually wiped the cache and data

I then installed Vanilla 3 RC1

I did not reboot after the install of Vanilla 3 RC1 completed.

I immediately installed BFS #2.

Now I rebooted.

I did not get any loops or anything at this point. Running Titanium Backup now to restore all my apps, will post with any problems.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spyd3r05:
I think I got bfs 2 going also...no wipe... Any one else missing gallery?

Also those with bfs 2 does it say havs in info
[Droid Incredible Android Development] drawde:
is this normal? on lock screen, you can press menu instead of sliding it over? happend to me in 2.5.2 as well.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JaYbLaZeE:
I got a boot loop, do i Just pull the battery? How do I get it to go into recovery?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Santinelli:
Yeah, seems to be normal for everything I've tried the android lock screen with.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] drawde:
flashed rom, setup everything to my liking.. flashed bfs #2 like usual.. no boot loops (yet). will report back.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] IIDIncII:
Can someone post 3g hot spot hack.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tdiman:
Update:

Phone FC'd while listening to music over bluetooth, I rebooted, and now its stuck in a boot loop. Factory reset fixed the problem without having to nandroid. Maybe full wipe is the way to go for stability.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
I have BFS #2 on an 8/26 leak and it looks exactly like your kernel info.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Santinelli:
Ok, scratch that... Went into clockwork to put in HtcFMRadio.apk, hit reboot and now it is looping at Skyraider and the cute little Android dude. Pulled the battery and it is still looping... :(

Although I find him cute.... It not being a phone isn't good.

AND all I've done was restore a couple of apps from titanium, no changes to kernel...

Hmmm, guess something to do after the meeting I'm going into...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] VCURamEngineer:
How did you make it as far as S-Off without knowing how to boot into recovery? I hope you made a backup of your phone prior to install the ROM.

Pull the battery to stop the boot loop. Put the battery back in. Hold vol-down and press the power button while the device is off. Once the menu is displayed click vol-down until you reach recovery (second one I believe) and press the power button. This will start Clockwodmod Recovery. You will need to do a nandroid restore at this point.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spyd3r05:
I don't think fm radio hardware support is in this kernel or build... So that is why app is not included..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] athenslb57:
The only thing I see so far is when I go into people then the company directory I get a FC.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
I have a feeling I know what is causing the boot loops. For now, run this code as root to disable a2sd.

a2sd remove
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tturner:
Is SkyRaider 3 still a Sense-less UI like 2.5.2 or is it inching closer to a full-on Vanilla theme (a la CyanogenMod)? I'm currently running Cyanogen 6.0.1 and not really loving it but I much prefer the Vanilla browser, sms, and dialer. I would love to see those elements in this well managed, constantly updated, and stable ROM (I cant say the same for Cyanogen for the Incredible; I think Koush has his hands in too many cakes).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] catmandu:
How exactly do I do what is said here? I'd do a search to figure it out, but I have no idea what i'd even be searching for lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JaYbLaZeE:
Sorry I was rushing before my 10am meeting.. I was referring to get it to stopping the boot loop and just do the recovery.. It seems that setcpu caused the boot loop after I was forced to reboot. Is anyone else seeing loops just after a normal reboot?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zipkicker:
Can I do this from the phone somehow? I've no access to a CPU right now
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
Connect your phone to the pc. In a command prompt shell, connect to your phone through adb and then type in the code I posted. You will have to search the forum if you're not sure how to use adb.

Yes, in a terminal app, gain root by typing 'su' and then type the code I posted.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] catmandu:
OK, thanks alot! Just needed to know what to search lol

BTW - I'm not showing the link to 3.0 vanilla in rom manager anymore. I bootlooped without a backup so i had to go back to 2.5.2
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mejdam:
Wow love this Rom, so far i've only ran into 2 issues (Besides the ones posted on page 1)

1. Cant upgrade or uninstall astro file manager

2. Music application doesnt read music that is located in internal 8gb.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cuban11182:
Just uninstall with uninstaller app, and reinstall from market.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 760hacker:
I can't seem to change the wallpaper to one from the Gallery. Live wallpapers work and HTC Wallpapers work. Has anyone else tried or been able to?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cuban11182:
Is there anyway to increase speed of the ROM. I read that with CM 6 they were getting quadrant scores in the 1300's. I tried this one and got about 750.

Not complaining, just asking! :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] km2010:
Great ROM!

One thing which I noticed and hasn't been mentioned, is that QuickOffice is missing. Also I liked the stock DI keyboard over then one included in the ROM. For now I will stick with stock til other issues are ironed out.

Just wanted to say Great Work!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Asterdroid:
Quick question. Any idea why the quadrant scores are so low with this ROM? They're a little more than half of what I was getting using CM6.

Not trying to knock the ROM, please don't misunderstand me. The numbers seem off, though.

Also, any idea why my 3G icon says EvDo instead of 3G?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Asterdroid:
Seems I'm not the only one on both forums at once lol.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] yojoe600:
im on many forums as well... and evdo is verizons name for 3g... its just a theme thing
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gerula1030:
I also have the problem of the htc music player not recognizing music on the intertnal storage. Any solutions.... Thank you OP for the wonderful rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] adrynalyne:
Read back a couple pages to understand why the performance is low.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cuban11182:
Back on topic though:

GPS functions perfectly. For you to get nav to speak you need to install speechsynthesis data.

Nav also works well. Only thing I have is when I hit back after starting to navigate, it closes out instead of going to the home page. Then I have to recheck the user agreements to use Google Nav Beta.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
Go into the gallery first, find the pic you want and use the 'set as' feature
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
Are you on 1.7? Because there are no evdo icons in 1.7+.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trunksta:
Glad to see you got GPS working. Dont really care for it too much, im more interested in the camera. will camera be a part of the 1.8 version? Im still using the 1.0, i may update to this later but not going to bother if a camera fix will be released soon. Also looking forward to your implementation of using internal storage for apps. Keep up the good work
[Droid Incredible Android Development] egzthunder1:
I've cleaned this up a bit. Stay on topic please. First and final warning.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Edit: I know why we both got the agreement pop-up more than once. LOL. It tricked us. You think the check box would say "Don't show this again" but it actually says "Show this next time" so don't check it. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rynosaur:
Sorry, I didn't mean to sound rude -- I meant sdcard works in recovery and other roms. You're probably right that it does not work in CM6 -- Dream just got all their devices up in 6 anyhow, so it's obviously a rough transition.

Having apps2sd working with internal storage is a GREAT idea, since I'm sure internal storage is faster and less prone to error than sdcards are.

Thanks for you continued hard work!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cuban11182:
ohhhh, thanks!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] The_Tech_Ninja:
Heyyyy wheres the donation link?

Also, just wondering any cause for the market being so slow?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ogre150:
I've been having trouble with the advanced task killer not actually killing any apps. Is anyone else experiencing that?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] coontag:
i had to nandroid back to another rom because i got a bootloop on HTC gallery install (hate 3d). im assuming the zip was from an older build... anyone have a HTC gallery working on on this yet?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zipkicker:
That worked, no more boot loop for me
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Lcsglvr:
Yep. Installed, set up everything etc. Then I had to restart my phone and got bootloops. Tried a fresh install without setting up everything and still bootlooped.. just a confirmation.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mrchambo:
It's in ROM Manager.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] RYANIMOSITY:
hold up i wake up this morning and see that its been released and then taking down???? why?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Lobo173:
That is what were are trying to find out
[Droid Incredible Android Development] catmandu:
I would have to assume he's fixing the bootloops quick.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Santinelli:
Ok just in case people have issues with this.....

adb shell

cd /system/bin

./a2sd remove

Probably could have done /system/bin/a2sd remove, but had to find a2sd first. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
A2sd is causing boot loops for people without partitioned cards. I have already contacted the dev to get it worked out. For the time being I pulled it. It will be re-released tonight.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Lcsglvr:
bootloops upon restarting your phone. may be the apps2sd card app.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Santinelli:
Seems to have fixed it, at least for me, I restored 3.0 back, mounted the system, did the remove, and came up. Looks good.

Thanks!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Lobo173:
aww. now i got to wait another whole day for it. lol. thanks for all your hard work ihtfp69. (:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RYANIMOSITY:
its all good ihtfp69 take your time with it man then post it up as soon as your ready cant wait to try it out
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
You shouldn't have to do that because it's in the path. I just ran the command as listed.

IT WORKED! I wiped, reinstalled 3.0 vanilla, booted, removed a2sd, rebooted into recovery, wiped cache (partition and dalvik), installed BFS#2 and voila!! :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tdiman:
This was my scenario - no partitioned sd card. I ran the a2sd remove command in a terminal emulator and so far so good.

I'm at a bit of a loss as to the advantage of running a2sd with such a large internal storage capacity. I'd rather keep the sdcard for all my media, nandroid, etc.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Santinelli:
Yes, shouldn't have to but I DID have to, I don't think the path was defined. I just have the android tools in a directory, and brought up adb shell. Got an error when I first did it that it couldn't find sbin, so I hunted for the program. No biggie, but looks like I'm back in business.

Ok, scratch that. apparently it didn't fix it... :(
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mapko11:
Performed the Terminal a2sd remove and it fixed the bootloop issue for me.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RYANIMOSITY:
never used adb shell before if its not a bother can someone post a link to exactly show me how to work this thing and remove apps2sd pleeeassee
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
You have the Android SDK installed, right? If so, open a command prompt and change to your sdk's tools directory, run "adb shell" (without the quotes) and then run the a2sd command.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RYANIMOSITY:
sorry but im kinda new to all this....Android SDK?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thatdudebutch:
dude just download a terminal emulator.. free on the market.. make sure you hit su to gain super user before entering the command
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RYANIMOSITY:
thanks seems alot easier to a average joe like me hahaha thanks again
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Lobo173:
I can't wait for it to come out (:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thatdudebutch:
no problem man
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spyd3r05:
Guess I'm lucky... Bfs 2, not partitioned... No problems... :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zipkicker:
Try going from the camera to the gallery causes fc

...when I click on the thumbnail for the gallery com.android.camera it something fc
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
Thanks. /10char
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RYANIMOSITY:
on clearing the dalvik cache should that should be done before flashing the ROM correct?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RYANIMOSITY:
im also having problems with the 3D Gallery it wont show any of my camera pictures from my SD and does force close anytime i try to go straight to my camera from it
[Droid Incredible Android Development] IIDIncII:
can someone post a link to the 3g hotspot hack guide. Its something i need to do to make my phone perfect lol.

Good work Ihftp! I knew i wasn't making a mistake by being patient.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
I think you have this backwards, right? Do you mean it fcs when you goto the gallery from the camera and it won't show pics on your internal storage?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bobby janow:
I had it loaded but needed to go back. Just wanted to let you know how much I missed this Rom since going to 3.0 Sense. Can't wait for this evening.

One thing I did do was remove the a2sd and then it was fine. But I didn't get the Social Networking option that I did this morning from Rom Manager, so I'll wait. But I figured that since I had the a2sd off I could restore my first install from this morning. No go, boot loop. Tried a restore from the backup with a2sd off, still no go, boot loop.

Nice looking tease ;-) I'll be checking throughout the day.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RYANIMOSITY:
ya sorry thats correct i had it the other way around and yes i cant look at any of my camera pictures from my internal storage
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Santinelli:
So, I know you'll have a new rom either tonight or tomorrow, but just an fyi, the a2sd remove works in getting the rom back up, but if it reboots, it goes back to a loop...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Nomsy79:
I can confirm this as well. The funny thing is though....I rebooted after I had installed the zip and Kernel #2 and everything went smooth. Was able to reboot with no loops. Once I started restoring apps and sms/mms messages is when it happened. I had restored most of my apps+data and everything was fine. I restored my sms/mms data...then went to reboot...and that is when the loops started. Not sure if it's directly related to that....but those were my steps.

Hope that helps.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Santinelli:
Aren't we just the BEST QA team? haha! :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sdsmithinc:
Boy, I'm having fun with the new rom. It's got all the suff I had on 2.5.2 and plus some. Great work again ihtfp69. I didn't have any issues with the constant rebooting reported on this thread (since I have my SD card partion), but I did have some startup isses with Darktremor A2sd. When I flashed the program and used adb to check the status of a2sd, I was getting faults on being able to transfer files from phone to SD. It noticed the Partition but would not move files to the SD card even after repair. I was using SU file manager on the phone and typing the adb commands in. To solve the issue I had to reformat the ext3 partion and used recovery to re-install SKY3rc1 Vanilla. Re-flashed the Darktremor file, entered into adb from my pc and checked a2sd condition (adb shell a2sd check). Still had the non-transfer but the fault codes suggested the fix. Applied the fix, rebooted (to see if everything was functioning), did the adb shell a2sd to activate and did a2sd check and everything was working. Now I did try this earlier (4 or 5 times) but I was not getting any success (the EXT3 partion did have leftovers from SKY3rc3) once I cleared the partion it seem to clear up any issues. It's running fine now.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
Did anyone test hulu, flash, gmail and voice search? They should all be baked in and working.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SomeGuyDude:
I'm going to go out on a limb and declare you the best Inc ROM dev. I feel like a traitor for saying this with such exemplary chefs like adrynalyne and Klick running around, but I'm not changing my mind.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mrchambo:
Haven't reloaded since the bootloop issue, but will when the update hits and will report back then...thanks again, ihtfp69 for all your hard work...

jc
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Santinelli:
Voice search worked fine. Gmail was fine. Hulu gave me a white screen, but I'll try it again...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Santinelli:
Sorry should have asked, did I need to install it off the sdcard first?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Santinelli:
ok, just needed to be patient, Hulu IS coming up... Flash worked too. So all is good with that stuff.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ghost401:
does anyone know anything about Sky Raider 3.0 Vanilla?

I installed it from Rom Manager This morning but its not there anymore, and it doesnt work. It stays stuck at the SkyRaider Flash Screen.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Ghost!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scrdy:
Any idea when we can be expecting it back available for download?

Thanks for all your hard work as always.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
No, just wait. It just takes a while to get going. I thought the same thing.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scrdy:
Go back a few pages in this thread and all your questions will be answered.

Cliff's notes: There were some minor bootlooping issues (something to do with a non-partitioned sd card) and expect a fixed re-release this evening.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
Ok, what about note to self?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scrdy:
Slightly off topic, but does the "Set alarm" function work now? I was having trouble with it as of 2.5.2
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Lcsglvr:
Great job on the new rom. I installed it this morning but couldn't really use it until now. I deleted the a2sd and seems to be working. Kind of scared to reboot for fear of a loop. Hehe I I think ill just wait until it comes out again to reboot just in case. But great job with so glad to be back in vanillaland
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
Google hasn't released the clock update needed to make it work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Santinelli:
Didn't know that one, it is pretty cool AND... It worked. :-)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Santinelli:
Just an fyi, after I listened to the message in gmail, i got out of the music player, and got a Music Mod (process.com.piratemedia.musicmod) has stopped unexpectedly.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
Thanks, but I'm not going to attempt and claim that title. We have a few really good devs. I've learned a lot of what I know now from this great community. Let's just hope they stick around so we can continue to have so many choices.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Nomsy79:
Before I had to revert back to SR 3.0 Sense I did try Hulu...and it worked fine. It took awhile for it to start up but I assumed that was normal. Gmail actually worked fine...I use K9 instead but before I restored my apps, I was getting a steady flow of emails in and was actually replying to them with no issues. I know there was that typing bug in Gmail not too long ago but it seemed to have been corrected. I was actually on the verge of trying Note To Self before the boot loops but the loops got me before I could even get to it.

I am actually going to try and install the zip again and start fresh. I have everything backed up including everything on my SD Card. This time around I'm not going to flash King's #2 kernel and see if any of these problem surface again. I will report back as soon as I can.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Santinelli:
Wait until he fixes the ROM, I never modified the kernel from what came with it, and it boot loops (Haha sounds like fruit loops!) :)

I didn't change anything to the kernel and mine goes into a loop... Almost replaced my battery to go out tonight and went NOPE need to charge the one in there!!! :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] IIDIncII:
What is note to self?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Santinelli:
If you go into Google voice search and say Note to Self blablabla it will send you a note with the contents. Pretty neat!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spyd3r05:
I just tried note to self. It works great. I'm on a 3.0 release candidate .
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
Ok, great. I have a small bug list then. The hard stuff works.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spyd3r05:
Dedicated testers at work :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zipkicker:
I think we should have a new thread...or something for people that are sticking with 2.5.2...just a thought
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Doctor Butts:
Guessing from his comments in the past, I don't think he'll start the new 3.0 vanilla thread until he has something he really wants to 'release'.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spyd3r05:
I would rather him do what he is doing working on the roms them selves instead of working on the threads about them... but that may just be me... he's doing a fine job..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zipkicker:
Isn't part of building roms finding bugs and stuff?

Now that i think about it your probably right, maybe he will start a thread when/if he releases it tonight
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Lcsglvr:
