2.15.00.07.28 is fine for the radio. The latest version you can download is 2.15.00.09.01. It is totally up to you if you want to update. You would still use dadicus's guide to do so.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] suttonn:
How do I get Flash working since the 3.1 update?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JoeyBones1:
so after using 3.1 for a few days what i've noticed as far as battery:

when i'm using the phone and going about doing things i can almost watch battery drain, but performance is incredible

when the phone is screen off and not being used the battery is a TANK and doesnt seem to change at all.

is this what everyone is experiencing?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] OSully:
RMK - Could you please add transparency as an option to the EZ-Customizer? With no location, preferably? I had a zip I was using to flash it, but I don't want to screw up the new build.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tehdoughnut:
That's pretty much the same thing I'm noticing.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bikercr:
I tried to install (3 times) using the 9.01 radio zip file using rom manager but, even though the cyanogenmod screen indicates an installation having occurred-->reboot selected, the radio version stays stuck at 7.28. Does this have to be installed by hboot only?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
There's your problem. You can't install through ROM Manager. It's not a flashable zip. You must update through HBOOT. Go to The Official Radio Thread to select the proper radio, then follow the appropriate section in dadicus' guide.

For future reference, try reading and searching. You really should be more careful flashing and updating things you don't understand. Easier to brick your device if you do it incorrectly.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JeeperDon:
Yes. Follow the directions for a radio update.

Battery drain with 3.1.0 is terrible. Been using my phone for 45min and have already lost 13% of my battery. This is with the oem extended battery. This stinks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] xShin:
What are your settings / how much activity were you using in those 2 hours / what battery are you using / what do you usually have running, etc? 5% down in 2 hours sounds amazing.. I realize that newer batteries have worse battery life until they've been used/charged for a few days, but I got around 5 hours or so out of my Incredible yesterday until it died (first day using it). I'm using the 3.1 Virtuous, with Always-On off, Background sync off, and I kill any unnecessarily running Apps in Settings > Applications > Running Applications. I'm also using the 7.28 radio (maybe that makes a difference?)

Thanks for any input! :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] najaboy:
Not following directions is a quick and easy way to end up with a brick.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bikercr:
Thanks to all for the warnings!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thebigshuck2:
I'm noticing the same results. If this is a necessary tradeoff I'm alright with it because what frustrates me most is my phone wasting battery when it's doing nothing just sitting in my pocket.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scottylove:
Did you bump charge? Because if not then i would definitely understand 13% in 45mins. Not bump charging takes about 10% instantaneously.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] knobunc:
3.1.0 is unmounting my SD card even when charging from a charger...

After the 3.1.0 upgrade the OS is unmounting the SD card from the Android whenever I plug it in to any USB. So even my car charger triggers it. The same happens when I plug into a PC (even though I have it set to default to charge only), but at least there I can visit the screen to change the charge mode. When I hit "ok" with the default charge-only set it will remount the sd card. But in my car, something knows it is not connected to a PC so doesn't show the screen.

I had to revert to my 3.0.1 backup to stop the behavior.

Is anyone else seeing this? I didn't see it when I searched the thread and the forum.

Thanks for maintaining this superb ROM.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] OSully:
Just a note... Somewhere between the beta and official release of 3.1, the music not resuming after navigation speaking broke again. I reflashed each twice to confirm.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
Did not bump charge. It started at 91%, and dropped to 78% in 45MIN. As someone else pointed out, seems to occur much faster when phone is in use.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
Yet another problem with this rom: 'update all' is very finicky. It says it's starting the download, but then just freezes. I have to cancel and restart the download several times before it'll work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] OSully:
Clear your data for download manager and the market app
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
There is defintely something wrong with this rom. Where is the developer? The battery is dying super fast, and I even tried moving to the custom kernal on rom manager. What is the eta on the fix for this?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] najaboy:
It has nothing to do with the ROM. It's a market issue that's found in any ROM including 100% stock unrooted.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] OSully:
Stop complaining and fix it yourself. Theres nothing wrong with this rom and rmk rules.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lazycrazyboi:
Wow that's terrible, with the new kernel my battery life is great I can go about 8.5hours with moderate use, on the stock radio, on the new radio 9.01 I would dropped 8% within 30 minutes of no use.

The only issue I had with upgrading (no wipe) and still do is that my txts no longer connect to my users pictures from Facebook after a really terrible fc that kept rebooting my phone after attempting to delete any messages.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
I just want to know what changed from 3.0.1 that would cause such a dramatic change in battery life. Can the developer please address this issue and what is being done, if anything, to fix it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] OSully:
My battery life has been great.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
Battery drops 2–3% at a time. Usually in 10 min intervals. Since I've tried multiple kernals without much success, what else can I try that doesn't involve a hard reset?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bluetooth_decay:
Thanks, but I wiped it already. Like I said, no big deal, Titanium made it a one-beer affair -- had the phone restored in 15 minutes.

I didn't see it then, but dug into this thread a little more tonight to find the icon double-vision phenomenon. Oh well.

3.1 seems to be working fine, except for a few more "location unobtainable" messages from the Google app suite than I remember in the past. The GPS Status app shows the GPS to be working fine, however, so I'm ignoring those.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bluetooth_decay:
"Where is the developer?" Say what? Did you donate? How much?

You do know all these ROMs are personal projects and, while the quality of some of them is very high, they *are* still experimental? If you want a warranty, and a throat to choke, keep your phone stock and call Verizon or HTC.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] khanam:
Its possible you have a bad battery. happened to me with a blackberry just about 2 years ago. i was convinced it was the software, turns out it was a hardware problem. try another stable rom (redemption etc) and if u still have the same problem, you will know its not the rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
I'm right here following this thread. When I have something useful to add, I do. There isn't a battery problem to chase. Most have seen either the same battery life with 3.1 as previous builds, or better.

The changes with 3.1 were substantial. It's based on a brand new Sense build. As mentioned previously, I have no way of detailing exactly what is different in the Sense build since HTC does not exactly provide a change log, especially of one that has not been officially released.

The vast majority of users have reported improved standby battery life with awake life being the same as before. If you're confident you were seeing better results with 3.0.1, I recommend reverting to it and testing for a few days.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
If you look above in this thread, there is someone else who mentioned the same battery issue i'm experiencing - that when on standby, the battery barely drains, but when using it drains in droves.

I really don't want to revert back to an old rom, it takes forever to restore all apps, settings, widgets. Each time I've done it, it's taken me at least a couple hours.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
Thought I had a workaround for the sdcard unmount issue on usb connect but I was wrong. Still investigating.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] anicotra:
Rmk,

I don't know if this is related but, sometimes I don't get the connect type prompt when I plug into a pc via usb. However, if I reboot, I get the prompt so I can mount disk drives, but eventually it stops working until the next reboot.

Edit: Never mind, I just saw your tweets.

Edit #2: I retract my first edit. I'm confused by what you mean by SD card unmounting, do you mean from the phone, or from the PC? I think I have a different issue. When I conntect the phone to a PC, I do NOT get the prompt to choose. So, I can NOT see any phone storage from the PC. Default settings are set to prompt. The phone can still access the SD card when connected to the PC USB port.

Again, if I reboot, I get the prompt to choose what type of USB connection I want. But, it eventually stops prompting some time later.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] punchcard:
I'm also having issues with hulu after installing 3.1.0 this morning. I just get the blue cubes instead of video. I cannot find the option to install it anywhere.

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] d213rr:
Same here.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
I'll get something out to fix Hulu shortly.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bast525:
rmk40 - I was running the old 8/1 stock 2.2 leak before, one thing I really like about that build was that when moving apps to SD, it actually moved them to the internal emmc storage. Now with this latest build, moving apps to SD actually puts them on the external SD card. Is there any way to change this? I've looked thru build.prop and some of the init files and tried a couple changes but nothing worked. I'd really like to go back to apps being moved to emmc. Any info or ideas you might be able to share would be greatly appreciated.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] radiohead14:
i'm not experiencing this issue.. when i plug my phone to my laptop, both internal and sd card show up fine (i didn't select a default action tho).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JeeperDon:
I have nothing to base this opon for sure, but I think a lot of the seemingly random issues people are having is because this ROM is too flexible. Virtual Buddy options, kernel swaps, etc. allow many combinations of situations. Not all the combinations have been tested (can't be really), and people never think changes they made 4 days ago are causing a seemingly unrelated problem. Each opportunity to change something is another opportunity to screw something up. Just my 2¢.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
I think you're right on with this.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] anicotra:
So, I've been trying to reproduce my issue of not getting the prompt when I plug the phone into a pc via usb.

I rebooted this morning to reenable the prompt. I've plugged it in 5 or 6 times throughout the day, in-between using all the apps on the phone. So far, I get the prompt every time, like I should when I plug it in.

I know at some point I will not get the prompt anymore and I will have to reboot to get it back.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] VZYGuy:
I installed 3.1 last night using ROMManager with data wipe to replace the stock Rom on the phone. My battery is doing great after a normal 8-5 day: still at 60%, by now the stock would have been in the orange.

When I connect to the pc via usb all works like it did with the stock Rom.

Thank you for the work on this ROM, it does everything I need.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] anicotra:
Yes.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] OSully:
Rmk, did you see my post about the navigation issue?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dpwhitty11:
rmk, something I didn't notice while we were beta testing, is that when I go to make a new calendar entry it gives me an error saying, "No calendars! You have no calendars."

Also, on a speed note, got 1596 on Kings #5 @1.15.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] punchcard:
Thx

[Droid Incredible Android Development] radiohead14:
this is also not an issue for me.. go to calendar settings and make sure you actually have at least one sync'd up.. right now i have my gmail, comp, and facebook calendars attached
[Droid Incredible Android Development] anicotra:
No problem here with making new calendar entries...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] earlymorninghours:
FWIW, this started happening to me prior to upgrading from 3.0.1 to 3.1.0. In fact I upgraded to 3.1.0 just to see if it would resolve the issue for me (it didn't). After a couple days of messing around I finally did a wipe/install of 3.1.0 and installed my apps one by one. The only apps I did not install were my root enabled apps: SetCPU, Root Explorer, Titanium, and Dual Mount Widget. I don't know which of them is the likely culprit for sure, but the developer of Dual Mount has been putting out what seems like twice a week updates lately. I finally have my phone exactly the way I want it again and I really don't want to play around with those apps. Additionally, I had some suspicions after my first wipe/install to 3.1.0 that these apps could be responsible, but uninstalling them did not resolve the problem - hence my apprehension to install them just to see.

I regret to report that 3.1.0 is having a negative impact on my battery life compared to 3.0.1 w/ Adrenyln custom kernel. It isn't crazy bad, but it is noticeably worse - I am no longer able to make it past dinner on a single charge with my HTC branded 2150 battery.

I've looked around, but this thread is insane.. is the previously mentioned custom kernel known to be working with 3.1.0?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] fiveoh:
I also can't seem to get it working.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scottylove:
Awesome rom rmk!

I don't know what happened but my contact pictures won't show up in sms messages. Don't feel like this is rom specific or just an HTC bug but I thought I would ask! Anybody else seeing this?

Update: fixed it by deleting Facebook account and re-enabling it. I knew it wasn't virtuous, best Rom ever
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mozetti:
Do we need to have specific themse for v3.1, or will the themes that worked on v3.01 work?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] anicotra:
If by contact pictures, you mean FaceBook contacts, they are showing here.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ozzman54:
I'm using the custom kernel with this rom and its working fine.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] earlymorninghours:
Thank you. It took me a while to get everything back to normal and I didn't want to hose my phone on a Monday. Much appreciated!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] xtort1417:
Needs to be a custom theme for 3.1.. he used a new build.of sense and the older themes will replace your framework, rosie, etc versions with the older sense versions. Caused problems for me

sent from my incredible
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thisguy23:
So does this mean incred revo theme will revert to old framework?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spjoneser:
Yep! Old framework and lots of older versions of stock apps that have been modified also. I actually used it just fine from the day 3.1 came out until now without any problems but today I reverted back to without it via nandroid I had done after upgrading. Decided I'd rather be running all the current apps. Sure do like the theme though. Would be stoked to see some with current software involved.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thisguy23:
Well that sucks. Sure not looking fwd to re-installing everything! Thanks for the news though
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lizard32:
Anyone having reboot issues on 3.1 when using Google voice and Bluetooth. Every phone call causes a reboot. Went back to 3.01 no issue. Completely wipe and go back to 3.1 and reboot are back. Seems to be very reproducible.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] earlymorninghours:
I have not experienced this problem with the Bluetooth built into my Toyota and I exclusively use GV for all incoming and outgoing calls. If it matters, I believe my car is only Bluetooth 1.1 or possibly 1.2 compliant. There is no way it's 2.0 or 2.1.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] punchcard:
Battery life on 3.1. 0 is amazing. Thank you!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thisguy23:
So anyone know of any themes compatible with 3.1?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gahh Its Lee:
I know that ill be told this isnt a real issue but my battery life doesn't seem as good. Could it possibly be an installing issue? Would a clean install (wiping) possibly fix anything?

P.S. I just realized i also switched kernels while updating my rom and just put an 1800 battery in but my battery seems to be dropping almost twice as fast.

My screen on times are also not right at all. If i leave my phone on in my sleep itll say the screen was on for like 4 hours (while it was off all night.)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] OSully:
Does anyone feel like making a no location/transparent notification window mod?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gahh Its Lee:
Ill upload something in a few since im gonna be making it for myself anyway
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gahh Its Lee:
Couldn't figure out the location and im tired

I cant figure it out... I lied sorry ive been trying and i just cant get it to work
[Droid Incredible Android Development] OSully:
I had one based on the previous build. I need one based on the new services.jar file.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Phaded:
Installed this last night to hopefully alleviate a problem I was having and so far so good. Love the ROM. Thanks for your hard work!

Sent from my Virtuous Incredible
[Droid Incredible Android Development] velopirate:
Yes. My phone rebooted everytime Bluetooth was turned off. Back to another ROM for now.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] anicotra:
I'm not seeing any issues with bluetooth here, and I use it twice a day to stream slacker, along with a call from time to time.

Are you using vlingo? If so, that app has caused some reboots when Bluetooth disconnects.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cortland1998:
No issues here. Nor during beta testing from any of the testers. Did you do a complete wipe? I'm almost betting everyone with issues didn't install fresh.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lizard32:
Yes, I have done completely fresh installs just to see if I could isolate the problem. Like I mentioned in my first post, its very reproducible for me. I am sticking with 3.01 for now. I have used every virtuous rom and the only version this has happened to me is 3.1.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] heliotropeUCSD:
Random reboots

I have also, sadly, had to go back to 3.0.1. Battery life and "snappiness" seemed a tiny bit better on the new sense, but the random reboots (sms, dialer, bt, randomly) were no good for me. Still a Virtuous devotee, but I won't be moving up from 3.0.1.

My downgrade procedure was to titanium backup, restore the NANDROID, and then force restore the titanium backup. I believe that kept all my apps up to date, and does not seem to have affected stability for the worse. Any opinions?

EDIT: I did do a full wipe, BUT I also loaded services.jar from Virtuous 3.0.1 in order to preserve transparency in my custom theme. If that could cause the problem, I'd love to know.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hazard666:
I have read through the thread since the release of 3.1 and haven't noticed any comments on the battery temp. when it's charging. For me it's considerably warmer than when I'm running other kernels, much so that I reverted back to king's kernel for normal charging temps. I'd like to experience this new kernel though; anyone have any tips/experiencing the same thing?

E:I did a full wipe prior to installation.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
I'm currently charging my phone from literally dead (it powered off) to full. I'm at 97% now, and still charging. The two apps that I've checked agree that my battery temp is 31.2 C which is roughly 88.1 F. Obviously the back of my phone barely feels warm, almost cool, to my hand.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] anicotra:
I haven't seen any problems with battery temperature while charging. It might be a little warmer with the 3.1.0 kernel, but that's because I think this kernel is charging with more current, giving faster charge times.

I've seen charging current as high as 800ma with this kernel. I never saw anything higher than 300ma with the custom kernel, or any other kernel since the 2.2 releases.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nathan_barstow14:
Is anybody else having problems with the Android Wired Tether app on Virtuous? I've been trying to a few days now, and nothing I am doing seems to be working. I know the kernel must be RNDIS enabled, I've tried two kernels so far. The one that came with the 3.1, and the latest King BFS. No go on either of them for me :confused:

Thanks for any help
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gahh Its Lee:
Ok so i definately know im having a problem. I charged my phone to 100% and then went to sleep for 6 hours. I woke up my screen on time is 6 hours 21 minutes and my screen off time if 6 hours 37 minutes or so. And my phone is down to 40% charge without ever being touched
[Droid Incredible Android Development] n99hockey:
This has happened to me, on a previous Virtuous build as well as when I was totally STOCK.

Basically something is keeping your phone awake, sometimes reboots can fix it and sometimes I would just format the device and start over.

Not really sure what exactly was causing it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gahh Its Lee:
The problem I've done a whole wipe and install thing three times so far. Well i just wiped and went back to 3.0.1 so i can atleast get my cool battery and transparent bar and stuff and hopefully thatll fix it (the wipe and downgrade)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] OSully:
I'm going to attempt to do a no location / transparent mod for the new version today.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
I have the exact same problem with the vzw extended battery. Didn't have this problem with 3.0.1. I decided to wipe and clean install to fix the problem, but to no avail. I'm down to 43% battery after less than 3 hrs of awake time.

I brought this up a few days ago and got flamed by others. Glad to see I am not alone here.

Developer, any thoughts?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
My phone is running at 105 degrees fairly consistantly. Battery life is awful.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
Please let me know of this works, i'm having the same problem.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] najaboy:
It's either a setting or a third party app that's causing the phone to stay awake. Using an app such as System Panel, you can see what's not letting your phone sleep. It could be something as simple as you needing to deselect news and stocks in sync options.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stockmoose16:
How can you tell from system panel of there is an appropriate that's not allowing the phone to sleep?

The screen turns off after 30 seconds. Would it still do this is it wasn't sleeping?
