My response was to someone who was using Virtuous Custom Kernel, which specifically wants you to use SetCPU to set the governor. HERE is the 2nd post in this thread discussing to actually use SetCPU. But you definitely should pay attention to the details of whatever kernel use. I agree with you.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] odmejia:
New member and quick question, Custom or Stock? Battery life is a plus for me, any suggestions? Im on RR right now but I want to give virtuous a shot..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] seanmcd72:
I used Titanium backup to rip the stock app out, and simply installed the same mail app from the sdcard as any other app. Works great.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dadsterflip:
Is this base off the real ota update release recently or leak version? I wasn't sure.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] radiohead14:
it's off the official. read the op.. it says it right there
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DroidBee:
Someone riddle me this - so I did a fresh install of Virtous. For some reason even after the fresh install there was one word in the user dictionary of the keyboard! I have tried wiping multiple times but the word is already there no matter what. Its my username for another email address (not my main gmail address) but it is a contact - does it pull it from there or what?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dadsterflip:
I know but I can't find that page someone said was base off the leak but anyways that's all I need to know. Thx.

Anyone came from skyraider to this rom and which was better?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spjoneser:
I have always figured that yes it must pull from the contacts because I have some kids with strange names and keyboard always spells them correctly.

It was based off the leak but the leak was confirmed identical to official:)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dadsterflip:
Sweet. Thinking about loading this rom see how it compares to skyraider. I loaded that new kernel someone posted can't remember his name but man that's am awesome kernel if you guys wanna try it out.

Just installed virtuous 3.1.0 and the popup for the latest verizon update keeps coming up. What can I do to get rid of it?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] clambert11:
I've yet to get this notification since installing the ROM nearly a week ago. I did however get it with the stock ROM before I upgraded. THIS XDA post fixed my problem.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ElJorge1050:
So I figured out why my phone bootlooped when installing 3.1.0 and poor battery life. Do NOT install any task manager or killer. The OS will take care of itself. I got 3.1.0 running great now!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bikercr:
Your screen-off protocol is OK when your phone doesn't need to do anything when its in standby mode. If something needs to run in the background: if the phone needs to sync, load a website, install a Market update, if you listen to music or podcasts with screen off, etc., etc., then your setting isn't going to work very well, if at all. Furthermore, waking the phone up from screen off is going to lag and possibly hang depending on what else is going on in the background.

One way you can set up a protocol that's more balanced is: 384 max; 245 min, conservative. There's multiple ways to make a screen-off protocol, but this one works great in almost all circumstances. If you find music or something else laggy with screen off, just jack up the upper number a few notches at a time.

When the battery is <10%, you may want to squeeze as much time out of it as possible until you can get to a charge. Here is where you "get tough" with a lower max and min (say, 384/245 or 128) and a conservative or even powersave setting. Powersave, incidentally, keeps the setting at its minimum at all times.

Another thing to consider is adding battery temp protocols--esp if you get overheating in your car when charging and using Navigator at the same time. I also have an overclock setting when my phone's connected to a charger. This needs a different kernel. I use the latest Ziggy one for the DInc.

The very first screen on SetCPU is the default setting when none of the protocols are active. I've got mine set to 948/245, interactive--pretty standard for fast response. Basically, you save your battery when the screen is off and let it fly when you're actively using it. That's the beauty of SetCPU--you get the best of both worlds.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] najaboy:
The leaked version is the official release. They're one in the same.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] clambert11:
Thanks for the info. Most helpful.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TheR1Rob:
Hey rmk... how about implementing a goodie for them transition animations to work with the inc revolution theme? I have tried to metamorph them in and adb push them in and when the phone boots up, sense and everything else force closes...

On a side note the new tweaked kernel based off the htc leak kernel is amazing! Best battery life and performance of any other kernel I've tried.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bikercr:
One more fine point about SetCPU: if you make profiles for special states, it's important how you order them via "priority" number. I suggest the following because it places phone survival first (temp), power saving with screen off second, letting it fly when plugged in and turned on third, and eeking out the last few drops of battery power last:

temp(s) [higher-to-lower] --> screen off --> charging/full --> battery<10% --> battery<16% --> battery<25%

On the battery power settings, I go aggressive savings to less aggressive as the battery reserve increases. For multiple temp settings, hottest (>50.1 C) = most slow; less overheated (>46.6 C) = not as slow as the hottest, etc., etc.

Enjoy!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Dmtalon:
So, I've been chasing a phone that's not very sleepy, and believed it all started when I went from my original deoxed 8/1 froyo leak'd rom to Virtuous.

Last night I tried Virtuous 3.0.1 (same results)

Last night I tried Stock 605.1 release rom deoxed/rooted. (same results)

Tried uninstalling anything that could/would be keeping the phone awake.

Today I turned Wifi Off (D-Link DIR-655) and after a reboot / 10m wait my phone's uptime was 11:XX and wake time of 2:30 which is a great improvement. Before it wasn't necessarily a 1:1 ratio of up/wake but it was a couple minutes off even after almost 2 hours it was about 16m difference between them.

Now, 30m later I'm at 30:xx uptime and 2:54 wake. So, disabling my wifi seems to have allowed my phone to sleep.

I actually have two wifi routers in the house one is a WRT54G down in the basement as my main router to the house (running DD-WRT). I used the D-Link upstairs because the WRT54G isn't strong enough to cover the whole upstairs.

I guess my next test is to maybe connect to the WRT and see how things work with it.

I'm not sure if this is normal behavior or if the router/phone is having an issue with wifi.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] anicotra:
I leave my WiFi on all day. It does not contribute to my phones on time.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Dmtalon:
Its definitely my router causing problems... I just added this as a data point fire others chasing wake time issues
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gahh Its Lee:
If your on time is messed up do you use handcent?? If so disable pop up and its fixed
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Dmtalon:
I assume your talking to me? If so, no I do not use Handcent, in fact when testing this with 3.0.1 and eventually the stock rooted 2.2, I had the bare minimum installed. For me it was truly an issue with my wifi router. I will try rebooting it and seeing if it's the same. It's obviously not always been an issue, but sometime near when I put Virt 3.1 on there (from a stock(ish) 2.2 rom) is when the router decided to keep my phone awake.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] crackers8199:
my phone has slowed down, so i decided to try a wipe and reflash of virtuous 3.1.0. a few things:

1) is virtuous buddy info supposed to persist between flashes where a wipe is involved? if not, is there any way to make it persistent?

2) when trying to toggle things on and off after flash, for several i'm getting errors...for example, adobe flash:

error: could not locate adobeflash.apk anywhere

the ones i've noted this happening for are flash, pdfviewer, car panel

any thoughts/ideas?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ahage16:
Hey, I've been using virtuous for a couple of months and I just had a couple of problems I was hoping I can get some help with:

1) I am currently running 3.0.1, but when I update to 3.1, apps won't load correctly or at all. For example, K-9 email will get as far as my list of emails, but if I try to open a specific email, it just closes. Most other apps don't even get that far, they just pop up for a second and then disappear - no force close message or anything

2) Does anyone else have horrendous battery life on 3g? Even if I am not using the phone at all, I can lose as much as 10% an hour on 3g. If I am in a lecture hall where there is weak/no 3g coverage I can lose as much as 30% in an hour, but at least there is a reason for that. On wifi battery life is great, but poor 3g battery life means I rarely use the phone outside of wifi. It has been like this on multiple kernels, including stock and King's Kernel #4, which I am using now. It makes me question if I would be better off just using me ipod touch considering I rarely use 3g.

3) I don't know if this is specific to Virtuous, but I figured i might as well ask. I am only able to open up Pandora once. After that it will force close whenever I try to open it unless I clear the apps data. I've tried reinstalling, too and I still have the same problems.

Thanks any help, and thanks for this ROM!

Missing buttons

Has anyone been able to come up with a fix for the missing button outlines?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] roadrunnersk:
Yep... 3.1 was too glitchy. I went back to 3.01. Which is still perfect :-)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] radiohead14:
what's glitchy about 3.1? never had an issue with it, and i've used all the other roms to compare. only issue i found, if you can even call it an issue, is the "show pictures" button on gmail and some sites lacking the borders, but even this is not isolated to just Virtuous, as other roms have it too. besides that, this has been the most stable and battery friendly rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] anicotra:
Ditto!

428 hours up time without a reboot of any kind. That's stability.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] WhammyDroid:
Completely agree!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tbcpn:
+1--great ROM. No issues, quick, zero lag, very stable, good battery management.

Question on themes

I have been running SR's latest rom it's been great so far.

As with anyone new to this, I am trying different roms and Virtuous rom was one of the ones I used.

Anyways.

My question, I was able to install this "allmappings" thing on the SR rom and since it had "chomp" on it I applied it, it works..

I haven't found a similar way to flash or to use metamorph, is there a way to get it to work?

The allmappings thing I am referring to is like bottom of the phone's screen there is the phone icon then apps "drawer" thing and then what ever you would like to put on there e.g google.."chomp"..

I would love to further use this Rom cause I can play "teeter" it's fun and addicting and with other roms I can't use it it's not there at all..

Thanks for you time.

hey guys, i've de-sense'd virtuous, and just wanted to show my current setup. it's lightweight now, even better with battery, and i'm also been testing chad's kernel to see if it's better than stock htc. so far so good:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gahh Its Lee:
Looks real good what launcher is that?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] radiohead14:
it's ADW with "fluxed" theme
[Droid Incredible Android Development] brstorrie:
Kernels...

Would it be better (battery life-wise) to use Adrynalyne's kernel, or KingxKlicks BFS? Flashing Virtuous over SkyRaider now....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] radiohead14:
i'd actually recommend the latest stock htc kernel to try out first. fast charge and good battery life
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gahh Its Lee:
My favorite kernel so far is chads first .17 one he made. It's just amazing.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] needshelp101:
i tried to download virtuous from the OP and flashed it to my phone, but it gave me an error and wouldnt download. then i tried to download it from rom manager and it gave me an error while downloading. i had wifi on and did not let the screen turn off while it was downloading. it downloaded the first 2 parts fine, but downloading part 3 is where it gave me an error. i tried to download 3.1 and 3.0.1 and i tried all configurations of them. ( meaning tried to get stock , witout hulu, then with hulu etc) i have skyraider 3.3.4 now , and wanted to give this one a shot. but im drawing a blank on how to get it lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] PokerMunkee:
My battery life isn't great with the custom kernel. I have SetCPU but isn't helping. I need the kernel because it has TUN for OpenVPN.

Is there an alternative kernel that would be better?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gahh Its Lee:
Chad has a tun kernel maybe more then one
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kyle1745:
Maybe a crazy question, but is there a way to unroot this rom after it is loaded? I have app that can detect a rooted phone that I need to run.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] xShin:
As Lee mentioned, Chad0989's incredikernel is quite nice.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] crackers8199:
anyone? anyone at all?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] clambert11:
You'll probably get a ton of different answers on this. I've been using HeyItsLou #4 with great success. I've also been running it without SetCPU. Check that kernel out too.

HTC Mail can't send attachments

I have been running Virtuous ROM 3.1.0 for maybe a month now and it's been great and battery life is the best so far.

The only problem is that I can't send attachments using HTC Mail, or Touchdown with my Exchange account. Lets say I send a 1mb attachment as a test to my Gmail account. The email will sit in the Outbox trying to send, and my Gmail account will get multiple emails with tiny attachments, say about 150kb or so. I have thouroughly tested my Exchange account which has a 50mb attachment limit, it has no problem with Windows Mobile, etc. I know Exchange is not the problem but something on Android is. I have removed the Exchange account and re set it up and the problem continues. I can recieve and read attachments, and Gmail is no problem what so ever, as I have used it for all my attachments since flashing Virtuous. I can't remember if I could send attachments prior to flashing Virtuous, because I haven't had the phone very long.

If anybody has any help, I would appreciate it.

Edit: I just setup Gmail within HTC mail and sent a test message with attachment. The exact same thing happens. Basically any mail account other than the built in Gmail account will not send messages with attachments.

Edit: The attachemnt finally sent with Gmail(HTC Mail), but took at least 15min. When sending via the Gmail app, the attachment send very fast.

Looked at my DHCP logs, and I'm stuck in a DISCOVER/OFFER loop.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gahh Its Lee:
Probably a dumb and already asked question but I use my phone and don't want to read 34783926 pages of posts... Would it be possible for us to get the new sense with this rom?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Zabii:
What app would even care if your phone is rooted? You are acting like rooting your phone is illegal.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] najaboy:
Extremely doubtful, as that would be in direct conflict with the spirit and intent of the ROM. Remember that Virtuous was intended to be as close to stock as possible with subtle enhancements. Porting that much from the Desire Z/HD is a very significant deviation from being stock.

ETA: this is my own opinion, based off what rmk has stated regarding this ROM since it's creation. I am in no way speaking on his behalf.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] afgeoff2010:
Any idea when we can expect an update for Virtuous??
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gahh Its Lee:
When an updated version of android comes out for the incredible most likely.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] facedown41:
I'm not having any issues with virtuous 3.1 since i've begun using it so I don't see why they would need to update it. Once gingerbread stuff comes out, then I would love to see an update asap.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] demlv:
Re: the next Virtuous (Incredible) update, RMK said on Twitter three days ago "I haven't forgotten about you Incredible users. Working on a new release. Expect it sometime next week."

My guess is that it will be an updated version of the custom kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] afgeoff2010:
Sounds good. I'd really like to see a task/app switcher in the notifications like some of the other ROMs. I really like Virtuous but that would seal the deal.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Solar257:
I'm just trying to understand how you use your phone, but how many tasks/what type of apps do you use that pressing and holding the home button to bring up the list of recent apps doesn't work? Not trying to say notification menu task-switching is wrong, but I'm just curious.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gahh Its Lee:
I'd love of we could get the notification bar Widgets on this rom as one of the extras
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Haven't seen that with my exchange client on my Dinc, but I'm using Roadsync for exchange email. I avoid HTC's email client like the plague. In fact, I *deleted it* using Virtuous Buddy after rooting and installing Virtuous 3.1 (stock kernel) and discovered, to my chagrin, that the app contains the Activesync function (meaning, you can't even create an Exchange Account in settings ---> Accounts & Sync unless you have the app installed.

Reinstalled, rebooted and recreated my exchange account post Virtuous installation (even though no wipe had been required).

I have sent myself a message from Roadsync to my Gmail account with an attachment without a problem, so if it is a Virtuous issue, it's limited to the HTC Mail app (or at least isn't tied to Roadsync).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] froader:
Thanks for the reply. Thats good to hear that all is working well with roadsync. It doesn't really matter who I send an attachment to, it just wont go(just was testing sending to my Gmail account).

That's interesting to find out that the activesync part of the OS is actually within HTC mail... That's probably why when I tried Touchdown, I had the same problem.

Is there any way you could setup your Exchange account via HTC mail, only syncing just mail 1 day(just takes less time for setup) and try to send an attachment at least 1mb? I would be curious to see the results before I wipe and start all over.

THANKS!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
I fired up the aweful HTC Mail app, sent myself an email from Exchange to my Gmail Account with a 2.5 MB attachment.

No problems whatsoever, so I don't think it's an HTC Mail problem you're having, froader. I also don't think it's a Virtuous issue.

I also immediately turned that app off after I did that test for you. You can turn off email sync in Exchange in the Settings --> Accounts & Sync --> Exchange settings, and still turn it on in Roadsync, thankfully.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] froader:
A little update:

I replied to an email this morning. They recieved a duplicate, then the seccond reply the recieved 4 duplicates...

I re-downloaded and flashed Virtuous ROM 3.1.0 without wipe. Problem persists.

I decided to turn on WIFI while the email with attachment was still sitting in the Outbox forever and bam the email sent. I sent some more emails with attachments over WIFI and no problems what so ever.

Problem narrowed down to cant send attachments using HTC mail/Exchange server with 3G, eventhough I have full bars(signal). ANNOYING!!!!

hey folks, just wanted to drop a quick recommendation for chad's newest (12/13-2) kernel on ya. running with this ROM, buttah.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] froader:
I just got off the pohone with VZW tech support. The guy setup my Exchange account on one of their test Droid Incredibles and was able to successfully send attachments. This is with their stock ROM obviously. The guy is sending me a replacement Incredible. If it shows up with the SLCD I need to read up if there is anything I need to be cautions of.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Rooting SLCD differs from rooting Amoled Incredible

You betcha; getting root on an SLCD Incredible is different than doing so on an Amoled one. There is another set of steps required, even if running Unrevoked.

Check around the web (and on Android Forums) for the alternative method required for SLCD Incredibles so you're not sorry.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Chad with which Virtuous ROM?

You running Chad's 12/13 kernel in Virtuous 3.1 or the prior Virtuous ROM?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] froader:
Cool, thanks! I did some research earlier and bookmarked some pages to help me root. Phone should be here Friday, so we will see. Just a test I am going to nandroid backup and restore that on the new phone as I am curious if the problem persists. If it does, which I am hoping not I am going to wipe and start fresh.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] baciv:
3.1.0 (the latest)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] froader:
I can't believe I missed your post. I really appreciate you testing, that's awesome. Looks like there is more proof that its simply on my end. I will let you know how the replacement phone goes.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Can you compare the kernels

Can you tell me how Chad's latest (and it says it's still beta....) is different than the stock kernel in Virtuous 3.1? I'm already getting 24+ hours battery life with stock Virtuous kernel and SetCPU.

Thanks in advance.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ptsmith24:
The only difference in rooting mine was having to point to a custom recovery image in the unrevoked utility.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Gahh Its Lee:
Its a lot smoother and the battery life is still awesome it's around the same battery life maybe a little better but a lot faster.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] marcmarshall:
So where is this kernel? Can you post a link?

I got the replacement phone which had the Nov. update on it.

I setup my Exchange account and successfully sent an attachment.

I backed up my currect ROM with ROM Manager, rooted the new phone and restored the backup. Tried to send and attachment and I still cannot. Look like I will have to do a full wipe and start all over, ARGG!

At least I have Titanium, but I will have to figure out how to restore my phone without bringing this problem along...
