First, I have donated to the project as well, to support his work.

Second, I rooted to get Froyo.

The biggest feature, aside from Froyo, of SkyRaider 2.5.2 is, honestly, that it doesn't look stupid. It clearly did not look like someone's "project ROM" with garish icons and backgrounds. It's provided in either Vanilla or Sense flavors, so I could pick from either "stock" configurations the way they were intended.

Now with 3.0, it's neither Vanilla nor Sense. The 5x4 layout and the wonky theme have pushed it deep into project ROM territory. It doesn't look official. It doesn't look convincing.

All I've posted in this thread have been questions about whether or not there will be a "factory" themed version for those of us who want it. I'm guilty of ratcheting the rhetoric up with each post out of frustration with the lack of official response. The snarky comment I received from a previous poster didn't help. I apologize for that.

Regardless, I don't consider my questions as noise. I think there will be people that certainly will find its deviation from standard appealing. No doubt these folks are in the majority based on the thunderous adulation in other responses in the thread. Nevertheless, I think there's a sizable group of people that this direction will alienate. They'll see the screenshots and press the back button out of purely superficial reasons.

Again, I just want to know if there will be, as there was in 2.5.2 and previous, an option with 3.0 between the "new look" and standard.

Well just got back from taking my kids to school, and the GPS work fine. Off today from work I will play and test my phone more to see if anything else is not working right. But I don't thing I would find anything else wrong with this Rom very stable!!!!!!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
Hah, ok. That is not a roaming icon. :) That is just how the signal bars look in the theme. I can certainty use bash as a default shell option. I think I will put a section in Rom Manager in case someone does not prefer it. I plan to have MM themes to remap the right button to things like contacts, camera, brwoser, etc ..

No one is forcing you to jump on board with 3.0 right now. There is no way on Earth that 100% of everyone with a Droid Incredible is going to like every single ROM that is available here. That is why we have choices and free will. I think it's great that this forum has as many ROMs available as it does. I am perfectly fine with you not liking 3.0. It doesn't bother me at all. I cannot possibly make everyone happy. If you do not like 3.0, you are welcome to stick with 2.5.2 or even use a different ROM. 3.0 is still new and I have plans to grow it further. However, I am only one person and I have many other responsibilities that do not include this hobby. As always, thanks for your support.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rushless:
I donated too, since I respect and appreciate the effort and 2.52 Sense rocks. I kind of like the idea about having an extra row of icons, but will wait for an update that corrects some of the issues already pointed out and the dev is aware of.

The beauty of being rooted is you have choices. I (as most here, I am sure)would much rather have the choice of Skyraider, Cy roms, Wave and Frankenrom than be at VZW's mercy and then be stuck with their slow updates and bloatware.

Sky 2.52 Sense is FAR better than stock 2.1, so for now, good enough for me :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] minickmd:
(3) When I go into the ROM manager and go into your ROM section there is the "Launchers" option, which from what I can tell is different themed launchers for the bottom of the screen. I have tried to download and install these but it does nothing. Is this because of the HTC sense and these are for non sense systems?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlss:
<Removed by jlss -- @Deacon's questions answered by dev>
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
No, those will work with any Sense ROM actually. They are just some themed stock AOSP launchers. After loading one tap Menu>Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>Running Applications. Scroll down until you find HTC Sense and open it up. Scroll down again and press the Clear Defaults button. Now press the Home button and you will be presented with a choice.

What happened to the inverted Sense clock/weather widget from the 2.5.2? That was cool. Can I download it from somewhere? This ROM is the best so far! Thank you ihtfp69
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jwood:
Ihtfp69: I noticed that the signal meter is a little "weird" here at the house I get a constant -90 to -93db signal..which is equivalent to 2 bars.

Right now I have no bars showing only .... then it will show 2 bars then back to .... every 10 to 15 secs or so, even while holding a steady -90 db signal...any thoughts?

What's the ETA on the vanilla SR 3.0? I just can't go back to sense.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
I did not mess with that stuff so I'm not sure. I will see if I can duplicate it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] minickmd:
So I got it to come up but it raised another question (since I am somewhat new at this). The launcher comes up as a blank slate. Is there a way to "copy" my 7 screen layout from the HTC sense to the launcher or do I have to recreate again. Also, second question...This morning the HTC sense seems very "sticky". Sometimes when I load it hangs on the home screen for 5-10 seconds and is very jerky or lags when scrolling. Any suggestions?? I cannot find any programs running in background that would cause this. Also HTC sense has forced closed a few times.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DeaconBoogie:
Thank you for the reply!

I understand completely and I do support your efforts!

I look forward to watching 3.0 through release to see what you've got cooking up!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] touchpro247:
@ihtfp69 Thanks for all that you do. Can't wait to see your Vallina 3.0 version, I'm already starting to update my theme for it.

Can 3.0 be theme or are you going to have themes available to change the theme or can other themes compatible with 3.0.

Just an update, this time all is well and it seems to be working great!

You have to apply the patch after installing the regular 3.3 file. Preferably, do a regular boot after the regular install, then go back to recovery to apply the patch.

ihtfp69, beside the 3g issue from my previous post, I'm also noticing that sometimes the phone button of the unlock screen is not visible (only the sound button shows up). I sort of swipe around the location where the button is supposed to be located and it unlocks but the button doesn't show up. Again, I'm running STOCK kernel WITHOUT setCPU or any other modification/overclocking.

Did you update the kernel like advised on post #3767. few pages back... This seems to have fixed the issue for me. 3G issue. Not sure about battery life.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] :
Ohhh I thought the main update in the new kernel was improved charge time. I'll give it a try to see if that fixes my one-time 3g disappearing issue. Thanks!

i did install a kings kernal 5 after the skyraider install. I didnt check it before that so I dont know if that is the problem. How can I get the original kernal back that came with skyraider 3.3? I could give that a try.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] stops81:
I rolled back to sp1 and have not had a 3g issue since. I know the op says the change in sp2 does not impact 3g but my personal results suggest otherwise. I'm quite content with sp1.

I'm not using it but having the same problem (with a kk5 also)

i'll try the suggested new stock kernal.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbeitel:
I replaced KK5 with this one as suggested and now just about every op and process force closes on me. Time to try nandroid for my first time ever.

I have a few nandroids and dont remember which one was before kk5. is there a way to tell from the phone once I restore one?

also, how do i tell if the nandroid i restore has sp2 already in it? Dont remember when I did that one either..... such the idiot.

ok, i nandroided back before kk5 and my gps problem went away. i looked at the kernal and it says something about htc kernal and 18-2 #1. Is this the first htc kernal with the battery problems or is this a different kernal that skyraider installed? just wondered if i should try #4 stock again and see if the prob was going from kk5 to stock 4. some many options, so little time!!

still GPS issues

So after installing the stock kernel I'm still having GPS issues. It's not a 10, 15 sec delay but around 1.5 second delay. I know it's not that bad and bearable but it is still not live update as I had before with Skyraider 3.0, Kings BFS #5 and SetCPU turned on.

So basically instead of smooth scrolling, the direction pointer jumps every 1.5 seconds on the map while I'm driving. And the battery life isn't that good. Not as good as with kings bfs5.

I don't have SetCPU running or installed. I'm on 3.3.2 Skyraider with the latest skyraider stock kernel.

Any ideas why it would be like that ?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] todd3835:
I'm running the latest stock kernal from the leaked rom I believe from 10/15. I'm on Skyraider 3.3.2 without SetCPU (doesn't work on the latest leak). I have no lag. I've had so many problems on my DInc with King's kernals. Battery life seemed better, but I get delays on EVERYTHING. Even without SetCPU (which made it worse with Kings), Kings has never worked well for me. Even scrolling my apps in the app drawer is much slower and extremely choppy with King's. Virtuous/Adrenyln has been much better for me personally, but I went stock for the 2x faster charging..... Instead of 1% every 2-5 minutes I'm getting 1% per minute again.....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbeitel:
well this is what i did do. I nandroided back to original sky raider and then i installed that kernal and everything was fine. i thought people say dont touch delvik? Either way it goes in from sky raiders just not from kk5
[Droid Incredible Android Development] todd3835:
I don't know if I'd say it's a MUST. I've frequently changed kernals without wiping Dalvik, because I didn't know I should. While it would explain some problems I've had, there are a lot of times where it hasn't cause me problems. It would be nice if there was a "Clear Dalvik" option for flashing if we are flashing a kernal, or even if it prompted (sence is says "... any time kernal updater...." when flashing a kernal.....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sShadowSs:
I think that's the kernel I'm on right now. is it this one:

http://files.virtuousrom.com/kernels/virtuous-kernel_stock_v4.zip

how's your battery life ?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] oldman_58:
Dalvik cache maintains linkages between program and operation system, when the kernel is changed those linkages need to be updated, when Dalvik is wiped on first boot-up the new linkages are built, with out the new Cache there are likely background issues,

Get a Logcat of your phone if you see Dalvik errors just try wiping Dalvik cache, be patient on reboot it will take a while to rebuild.

Glad everything worked out for you with the Nandroid and Kernel load.

I love the Rom But...

Back to uncommon Sense, since I installed the final 3.3.2 when I reboot the phone all my settings are gone! Clear state with some FC apks. I Installed it from RM wipe cache and data, I tried twice this Rom without luck.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sShadowSs:
when you wipe cache and data you kill all your settings. you could've used titanium backup to backup system and app data and then selectively restore whatever you needed. That's what I did and it works great.

Thank you, but I known that all my setting are gone after the Rom install, but my problem is when I begin my customization, widget, setting, wallpapers etc etc.. work great until I turn off my phone at night and turn on in the morning again all my setting are gone include wallpaper, widget etc etc...

[Droid Incredible Android Development] minickmd:
New question for ihtfp69:

Does the rotary lock screen use the standard system font (DroidSans.ttf) instead of the clock font (Clockopia.ttf) for the clock? The reason I ask is that I tried to replace just the Clockopia.ttf but it remains the stock font on the lock screen. I checked and the file did get replaced. If so, is there a way to change it to use the Clockopia font?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] minickmd:
My play/pause button works with the program but the forward, backward buttons do not seem to function at all. Any ideas??? I have not yet checked them with the stock music player to see if they work with that one.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
That means your battery has overheated. It's a fail safe so your battery does not melt and destroy your phone.

The lock screens are not associated with any specific music player. Android chooses which one receives the command. Make sure you do not have several players installed; this can sometimes cause issues. It usually works with the player that was last used.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Staticaxe:
Removing other players worked! Thanks!

For people that are using radio 2.15.00.09.01?

I want your honest personal opinion cause from the official radio forum I've seen nothing but mixed messages, however one of the main thread commenters has said he has noticed an improvement overall. But I want to hear about experiences from people on this thread. So if you are using 2.15.00.09.01 please tell me what you think about it, including all your likes and dislikes. Thank you.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
I honestly do not. I've checked which graphic belongs to that button and it seems fine. In fact, its used on many other parts of android. I have even tried replacing the graphic with an original and it still does not help. It seems be set to invisible for some reason.

I have seen this posted throughout this thread with no resolution. I also have a problem with the GPS. It simply will not lock in. When I turn on GPS and start Nav, it stays stuck on "Searching for GPS", forever - like 10 minutes or so before it picks up the GPS. This is in the car, outside, in the house.

If I run the GPS Test app from the market, it does see the satellites, so I am not sure why it will not work in nav. I love this ROM and would like to stay on it but really need my GPS so any suggestions would be appreciated.

Constant restart problem

I downloaded 3.3 using ROM Manager, did a backup and wipe, and rebooted to install. The installation completed and the phone rebooted. About a minute after unlocking the phone it restarted. I let it finish and unlocked the phone again. After about a minute it restarted again. I then left the phone alone and it restarted twice, again about one minute after getting to the lock screen. I went ahead and loaded the backup but I'm hoping that someone may have some advice for me so I can get the latest version up and running. Many thanks in advance.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] oldman_58:
Read the OP

1. you must have HBOOT .79 or later

2. You need to have 2.15 Radio

I have read in this forum either of those can cause the issue you describe.

I'm using SR3.3.2 and upgraded my radio yesterday and my battery life seems better than before not to mention my service is better. That's with 65024 prl, I went to 52011 to see what I get as far as service. I'd say, try it out. So much bull**** out there with opinions and variations of opinions, you won't know until you check for yourself.

EDIT: I was thinking about it and maybe people in areas where there isn't much traffic are experiencing more battery loss because the phone is searching harder for service while people like me (las vegas) are experiencing better battery life and better service because there is more traffic around. *shrugs*
