So I'm curious, the bugs that are left in the OP (it still lists the Camcorder and no LED blinking as bugs) are they still bugs? Or have they been fixed?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Yodes:
No, they have been fixed as long as you are using a 2.X version of Skyraider with the updated radio (2.05 or higher). As of right now this is a fully functional ROM in this state.

If you are on a 1.X version then those issues will still be present.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
does anybody know why 2.5 is not available in sense?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GatorsUF:
Ihtfp69 took it down until he could fix the issues peopel were having with it...ie boot loop
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmoney:
troubles with boot loops
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
thank you.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mapko11:
I'm sure this is buried in 1 of the 279 pages of this thread. Hoping someone knows the answer off the top of their head. Anyway to get Visual Voicemail on this ROM? I looked in the market and the one I installed claims I have one already on this ROM, which I know I don't.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bigtee101:
For those that do have 2.5 Sense successfully installed and working, can anyone tell me whether it supports the Wiimote yet or do I have to go with vanilla to use it?

[Droid Incredible Android Development] IIDIncII:
Is there a solution for the camera? Its not working for me. I'm running vanilla 2.5
[Droid Incredible Android Development] adrynalyne:
Not sure what the decision was to not cook in the fixes but the reason why we see many of these problems stem from:

1. Improper drivers. We do not have Froyo drivers to work with, only Eclair.

2. Certain hardware settings are compiled into the OS and we do not have the source and HTC doesn't publish these settings for us to remedy the issue with aosp source. For Sense related issues, there is no source available.

3. We are currently using an Eclair kernel.

At best, all we can do is hack on it and hope for the best.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] jitajt:
this is a ROM ported from the Desire and while it is a similar phone, not all the drivers work because of hardware differences, so the Devs have to modify/create drivers so it will work and that is no fast or easy task. if this was from a leaked incredible ROM it would be much easier.

those are minor fixes so it is probably easier and less time consuming to just post the fixes rather than create and upload a new ROM. these problems were probably unkown at the time of ROM creation, but I suspect that those problems will be fixed in the next ROM update along with all the other goodies the OP mentioned. think of it like the verizon OTA updates, it is easier to push the small fixes then to have to push a whole ROM everytime something gets updated.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ruben1123:
Flashed the voice thing twice and still have a En on the keyboard.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
AAAAHhhhhh

Thank you both for your answers ... so it sounds like all the FroYo builds will suffer from SOMETHING until Verizon releases the upgrade to FroYo for the incredible (which will then have the proper sense [since there's no source code] and appropriate FroYo drivers).

This answered a bigger question for me ... which is that I should just wait until FroYo becomes available and only THEN start looking to the cooking community.

Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jitajt:
you will be waiting till around christmas time for a Froyo release from verizon. I am just waiting for the next ROM update, which should have almost everything working. right now I switch back and forth between this and my 2.1 ROM, this froyo port is very very stable even with the 1.115 ocuv hydra kernel, but I need camera and GPS.

as per the OP:

UPDATES FOR MONDAY:

Working Camera and GPS

MMS Working by Default

Voice Search Working by Default

HTC Mail App (Better Exchange/IMAP/POP Support)

Chrometophone

Phone Identity Changed to say HTC Incredible

Updated Fingerprint in the build.prop

Updated Kernel

Some other things
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 760hacker:
so we know the update is coming today, we're about halfway through..... when will it be? Patiently awaiting!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cuban11182:
Are you saying these are the updates he is working on today, or they will be released today?

Also, can I ask where you got this info, so I can follow the progress?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] yojoe600:
he posted that a few pages back...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cuban11182:
Oh ok, thanks. Sooooo did he post the answer to my other question? ;)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TheRealStarkman:
For a programmer, schedules mean we finish at the last possible time. I would not expect anything until after 11:00 PM. And if he is anything like me, Monday does not end until bedtime which could well after Midnight. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] billster2006:
this may have been answered and i dont really wanna look through 27 pages for the answer lol but how do you restore the mms apn?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lahegry:
apn backup/restore on market
[Droid Incredible Android Development] billster2006:
thank you this should help
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JaydenR:
Man this rom is fast and sweet. I just need the GPS and camera for daily use. Gotta say great work on porting this though.:D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ksizzle9:
Heres to hoping that we get a great update for this ROM tonight.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jtpstealth:
Thanks Dev for your awesome work and dedication. This is amazing! I am highly looking forward to the next release. Can't wait. I like this much better than CM6.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JaydenR:
Moving on. :rolleyes:

I also like this better. You could tell the huge speed increase when scrolling through your music cover art. They art loads instantly.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 20trickyricky10:
im pretty sure I see Bluetooth on that list..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
Thanks for being patient again. I can't post the update until after work guys, so that is why the update is not up yet. :) I also have to feed the kids and some other things when I get home. Then I will get to work on posting the update. Still no GPS, camera or mobile hotspot. Some of it is kernel related, and the other part is the drivers.

There are a lot of changes, though. I will post a change log tonight with the update. The update will be a full wipe unfortunately.

PS. The flash update for the voice search is not a keyboard. It is just the library files necessary for doing a voice search. You can try it by tapping the search key while at your home screen and then doing a voice search.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JaydenR:
Awesome. Thanks for the update.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
If you managed to get 2.5 Vanilla installed, it supports VVM from the market.

What is your radio version?

Sent from my Incredible using Sky Raider 2.2 Sense
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jtcarnes:
I can download some and not others. I'm trying to get the white bar with circle icon and can't get it. I can get the regular white bar and the black with circle. I'm also using Vanilla.

EDIT: You can go to h**p://pcjock.com/SkyRaider/ and download whatever you want.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] andybones:
Can't get vanilla 2.5 to load?

is this because I am still on the stock 1.00 radio??
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bigtee101:
Had the same issue with white bar circle battery this morning. Got to 99% then failed.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] waite4it:
I had the boot loop problem last night, but I reflashed 2.2 and redownloaded 2.5. This time I didn't wipe data cache, and it installed fine. Plus, I got 1305 this morning on Quadrant and 40 on Linpack. Woot woot!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] supagene:
Don't you have to pay for VVM? I've been using Google Voice primarily because of that.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mgavina23:
updated from 2.2 sense to the 2.5 and my people icon is missing. can't view my address book anymore. nothing in my app drawer either.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gadget!:
I must be spending to much time on here...

I managed to get the first 2.5 sense version downloaded and installed. I done a flash over (no wipe) but noticed immediately that "People" was missing.

I done a nand restore and in the mean time the second 2.5 sense was uploaded.

I grabbed it, done a full wipe and installed only t be stuck in a continuous boot loop!

Another nand restore, installed again (no wipe) and it worked this time.

I have been using it all day with no issues whatsoever.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] WingHater:
I can't get rom manager to install 2.5 sense, it gives me an error everytime I try to download it. The link in the OP says pulled? So is it being modified or updated? Why is there no link?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] g00s3y:
you answered your own question
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Terberculosis:
Boot Loops while trying to flash 2.5 Vanilla over the first leaked 2.2 OTA (from July).

I forgot to wipe the cache partition before flashing. Just rewiped and reflashing to see if I can avoid the bootloop.

I already have the 2.x radio upgrade.

Edit: Stuck in bootloop again after going back into CWM and clearing data and cache, then reflashing.

nandroid, take me home.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
Yes, they did not upload all the way. I will fix it.

Yes, but some people still use it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
with this new rom(i have vanilla) and over clocking and new baseband and oc kernel and everything, i'm consistently getting into the 1200's finally in quadrant and around 40 in linmark. with 2.2 i was still getting in the 1100's and around 30 respectively. mind you, i had the oc kernel and latest baseband with 2.2

wow! just got 1374. finally past the nexus one 2.2+ score. nice

1390. so consistently in the 1300's. i clear the caches before i run it too

1400+ :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Lcsglvr:
I was referring to the new radio (2.15).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] twilight2ner:
Anyone know why after installing 2.5 I can't use my touchscreen when charging? Is there an option for that or something? It worked fine with 2.2.

Zeam Launcher & Market

For some reason the Zeam Launcher Download/Update is stuck in the market and when I try to cancel the download...it force closes the market...when I go back in the market...it's there again....any help with this?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] letum00:
Try factory reset and wiping dalvik cache in advanced AFTER flashing the new rom. This is what it took for me to get past boot loop.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gummehbear:
@ihtfp69 any plans of using the "Smooth Super Circle Battery Mod"? Its nice having correct battery values, instead of an estimate as it was the last time i used it. And it fits much better (green one).

[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
what works for me is going into settings>apps>market and clear cache and data
[Droid Incredible Android Development] palomosan:
I'll try it tonight, it shouldn't be a problem since I'm running the 2.2 vanilla version already, thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Picao:
I got it to install no problems when I did not do a full wipe but the People app does not show anything. It says "not linked anymore" any idea on how to get the contacts to list again? I copied the HtcContacts.apk over to the phone and ran it but it showed an error not installed after I ran it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
these black out the clock. that kind of makes it useless. wish it didnt do that, i like the battery icon
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ouikikazz:
run the theme for the black notification area, then install the battery mod zip, it works flawlessy that way
[Droid Incredible Android Development] joerkc:
For those with Vanilla 2.5:

For anyone who wants a smooth battery icon with exact percentages and is alright with the black notification bar, download the black notification bar "theme" via rom manager, install that, then install the smooth sense icons. I just did such and it works, even though I run vanilla. Think this might help some. Here's a screenshot of it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chris61292:
Stuck in a bootloop after trying to put 2.5 vanilla over 2.2 leak from 8/1 with hydra kernel, just did a nandroid to old kernel and will try again
[Droid Incredible Android Development] joerkc:
You can't put it over the 2.2 leak, by 2.2 Vanilla Ihtfp69 is referring to Skyraider 2.2 Vanilla, not any other 2.2 (as in Froyo) leak. Only Skyraider 2.2. Any other rom requires a full wipe before flashing over.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chris61292:
I did a full wipe and cache format... perhaps i was not clear enough.

Just restored to a cm6 backup, downloaded the rom again, and wiped/cache formatted and stuck in a bootloop again

EDIT: installing a 2.0.1 sky raider rom i had on my sd card and ill give it a shot again if 2.0.1 boots up
[Droid Incredible Android Development] joerkc:
I'm guessing that you're on a 2.x radio, correct? I don't believe 2.5 will work with the stock radio.

Edit: Also, maybe if you wipe, go to Skyraider Vanilla 2.2, then flash over it to 2.5 without wiping, it might work. I never installed 2.5 right from wipe, I simply upgraded from Vanilla 2.2. Good luck either way. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] fortesquieu:
Same here lol. I'm lost
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chris61292:
Im on the 2.05 radio

Ill let you know if i can get something to work =) message me with ur msn or aim if u want

EDIT:2.0.1 installed perfectly fine, doing a backup/format/cache via Rom Manager and then trying 2.5 again
[Droid Incredible Android Development] boogachamp:
wish I read the last page first, I'm stuck in an infinate loop too :P
[Droid Incredible Android Development] joerkc:
Just a thought, based on how I upgraded, go to Sky Raider 2.2 Vanilla, install adrenalyne's 2.15.00.07.28 radio, then go to 2.5? I'd really like to help...it doesn't really make sense why it wouldn't work. Above is the exact order I went in personally. I'm sure the S-Off doesn't matter for flashing, but as a side note, I did the Unrevoked Forever as well. If you get it, message back with how you did. Not only am I curious, I'm sure a few would like to know.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gummehbear:
i had the green one running on the SkyRaider 2.2 Vanilla when the notifications bar was still black and it worked just fine actually.

I think I am going to switch to SkyRiader 2.2 Sense just to get this back. Plus i also like to control the music app from the lock screen.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] J913B:
I went from stock 2.1 to 2.5 Vanilla, Hydra Kernel, then the radio update and everything seems to be working out fine.

While waiting for SkyRaider 2.5 for Sense issues to be hashed out, I went ahead and flashed the 2.15 radio and the Hydra OC/UV kernel (all the OC/OV kernels before the new ones put be in a bootloop, which I didn't really want to deal with.

So, here's my linpack and quadrant results on SkyRaider 2.2 w/ 2.15 radio and hydra OC/UV (hydra OC kernel #2), and my software info screen too - and oh, I'm S-OFF too thanks to /forever:

I am really liking the 2.5 Vanilla ROM. I was a diehard CM6 ROM user and I just tried the 2.5 and I am very impressed. The one question I have is does anyone know if it is possible to use the stock 2.2 Camera/Camcorder? I really do not like the HTC camera App. I love how on the stock you can press the trackball button to focus and release to snap the picture. This is not possible with the HTC camera app. Anyone know if this is possible to get the stock camera app? Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
what launcher are you running here? i like it
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ouikikazz:
ok found a bug that was existent in 2.2 and never resolved or looked into that i know of, on the vanilla rom the messaging app is flawed, try sending a message to a group of people, it will FC the messaging app...also if u compose a rather long new message to a contact (instead of just replying to an existing message thread) it will FC as well and keep retrying but not send. is there a way to push the mms.apk from sense over to vanilla? or find a solution for the vanilla mms.apk?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:

[Droid Incredible Android Development] chris61292:
2.2 vanilla installed fine... then i did factory reset and cache wipe to install 2.5 and stuck in bootloop again

Yep, I'm all good now.

Loaded 2.2 with a wipe. Then loaded 2.5 on top without a wipe. All set.

anyone know how to get rid of news and weather, email, and other stuff i dont need or use?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] :
Just to clear stuff up....

Do a full wipe (even wipe dalvik cache), install v2.2 let it boot fully, and just instal v2.5 over 2.2 (don't wipe ANYTHING)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chris61292:
stock .32 and 2.05
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlss:
Yes, and hopefully this is useful for others, too:

1. adb reboot recovery;

2. In recovery, go to partitions and mount system (and sdcard if you want);

3. Back in your terminal type adb shell (or ./adb shell on OSX);

4. In terminal, cd /system/app

5. In terminal run a list (ls in OSX);

6. Locate the .apk (application) file(s) you want to delete;

7. In terminal still type rm -rf application_name.apk (in Windoze I believe that rem application_name.apk will work);

8. Once complete go back to your DINC, power button once, and reboot your device.

CAUTION: Only delete the .apk files for the apps you don't want (bloat like News, Stocks, etc.) If you don't know what the .apk does, don't delete it. Instead google it to find out what it does. Deleting core .apks can cause serious problems. I take zero responsibility for anyone bricking or otherwise messing up their DINC. All responsibility is yours as the user.

@jlss can't you just use titanium backup to uninstall if we have soff

Excellent point. Still so excited about S-OFF that I forget this. You're absolutely correct.

If you haven't followed the steps to get S-OFF (http://unrevoked.com/forever) - follow their wiki, follow my steps. If you have run the /forever steps use Titanium Backup.

Thanks for the addition jdk.

Root explorer works fine too...but titanium is free so I use that as it works just as good

Root explorer is great if you know the exact file and location. Titanium Backup has an app list, so much easier.

Upgraded from 2.2 to 2.5 successfully today. Got boot loops last night.when I tried with rom manager.

I got it to upgrade today by manually installing the 2.5 vanilla in clockwork recovery. Changed to black status bar, added launcher pro, hydra pc 1.13 kernel, droid x kb, etc and working great so far. Battery is already much improved versus 2.2 vanilla.

yeah. it is. beats doing searches.

can anyone install the new super user?

I have a USB Brick after installing Skyraider 2.5 Vanilla, meaning I cant access my phone via my computer. How do I fix this?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hazard666:
Did you do a backup? If so, just do power + volume down and go into recovery and restore your backup.

E: think you meant something more complex though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Jola66:
You mean basically go back to my previous ROM?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ruoh:
Did you try disabling the usb debugging?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Jola66:
Yeah, didnt help. I guess Ill just have to go back to a different ROM i had. Ive never tried Skyraider and thought Id do it. Guess its not for me right now
[Droid Incredible Android Development] boogachamp:
So about an hour or two into setting up my apps and configurations how I like them I try to go to the sound menu to change the ringtone. Some android processes crash and my phone reboots. And now it just keeps rebooting. It gets rite to the point where I think everything is ok, screen up, unlocks, widgets appearing (though not the ones I arranged).

Back to my old back-up of CM6. Maybe I will try just Vanilla Skyraider 2.2 for awhile???
[Droid Incredible Android Development] itch808:
Before anyone crucifies me, I just read through something like 40pgs trying to find my answer. But with every single version 1.9b, 2.0.1, 2.2, and now 2.5 sense and vanilla....it's hard to find a clear cut answer!

Right now I'm running Sky Raider (Sense) v2.0.1 with the 2.15 radio, Hydra Kernel #1, and S-OFF (unrevoked forever).

My questions:

1) Can I just flash v2.5 vanilla over this without a full wipe?

2) I've noticed some people mentioning in past threads issues about HTC programs missing such as People and Music Player, now I can't say I didn't miss any complaints. But are there are other KNOWN issues with taking away sense fully? What are the implications on the camera, camcorder, people, groups, etc? I haven't seen anyone mention with certainty that even installing the .apks will fully resolve any issues without bugs.

I need my contacts list fully functioning and it would be nice to be able to listen to MP3s on our internal memory still.

Could someone do a video or some screen shots of 2.5 vanilla?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] joerkc:
You cannot flash over that without a full wipe. I personally have people, camera, and camcorder working on 2.5 Vanilla with no issues what so ever. I also install a lot of apps with no issue either (via .apk in Astro as well as in the market). If there's any other questions, don't hesitate to ask.

EDIT: As for the music, the included player will not see your music, but MixZing will. :)
