For those of you that cannot seem to hold a download when your screen is off on wifi, download the stock kernel from IHTFP's rom manger, but do not install via on manager. Boot into recovery and flash it. It does not flash properly using rom manager for whatever reason.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] pchoward:
I just loaded the rom on my incredible and its stuck while booting up. it just shows your splashscreen animations over and over forever. Is this a known issue ? thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] silverxbv2:
It can take between five and ten minutes for the rom to load. You are doing full wipes prior to flashing also right?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
Since I have been asked many times, I updated the 2nd post with instructions for upgrading to 4.2 from 4.0.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] pchoward:
I didnt do a full wipe but just did one now, reran setup and its looking good thanks !
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phoenixs4r:
For those of you that like the sense 3.0 lockscreen, may I recommend livelocker. Its definitely not a replica of it. But it does have some similar features and I find it quite nice.

Is it possible to remove the words "All Apps" from the launcher when you switch the phone and AppDrawer buttons? It seems like it would be a simple delete somewhere, but I can't seem to find it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
Hmmm, guess I didn't think of that. Right now you can't. I'll have to put it in an update. I noted it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ChuckFarley:
Did that really work for you? I've reverted back to CM7 nightly #122 with it's stock kernel and I'm still experiencing the same wifi drop when the screen is off.

I'm starting to wonder if it's kernel based. Some simple searches suggest it might be a common problem with Inc's and Evos, but no one has a real solution.

I'm trying to apply a couple different battery mods to 4.2 to give me a % instead of solid battery. I've tried flashing and going thru MM with no luck from either. Am I doing something wrong or do the mods not work on this ROM? Any help?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildragewildrage:
fail

Can't get this ROM to work. Did full wipes of user data and cache, and it just constantly restarts. I let it reboot like 12 times, then tried wiping again and reinstalling. Another 8 reboots later, and I'm going back to my old rom. Hope others have better luck.

Donate

It's good the 12 step programs are only a $1 donation cause by the looks of it you should be gettin plenty of donations to the beer fund. I've been out testing all the other roms and after a few months, I end up back here. This is by far the most stable, best battery life, user friendly, and easily customizable rom available.

Thanks Mr. SR

easiest way is to just go to the UOT theme kitchen and make your own to flash, thats what I did. Actually made my own theme thats not too different from stock. If you want I can upload it?

I've tried setting it to never, 15 mins, and plugged in; but nothing seems to work for me. I've reboot with all settings, still no difference.

I'm not sure what happened. This is a new problem for me, I used to be able to download with the screen off without issue.

I'll be very happy when I find the solution. This issue is haunting me now.

**Update**

Joy! (Sort of) I flashed the latest incredikernel (6/26/11) on CM7 and I can download with the screen off. So it appears the issue is kernel based.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] oldman_58:
Have you by chance changed the flash screen on boot-up?

what version of Radio do you have installed?

Do not use ROM manager do the install for you, download the ROM exit ROM Manager go to recovery

Format:

System

Cache

Data

Wipe

Dalvik (maybe over Kill)

Load SR4.2 full ROM (don't download or install the upgrade version after a full wipe)

let it finish

Reboot

And you you should be up and running...

OK i had no problem getting the ROM up and running, install the addons. all seems good but my SYNC icon never stops. have rebooted. is it possible for the SYNC to take hours.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ChuckFarley:
Check what's syncing in settings. I had that issue when I first flashed this rom and it was syncing my picasa pics on my Google account.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] yomonk1:
Mine is doing the exact same thing. Seems to cycle through all of my Google functions (Cal, contacts, etc.) and now all of a sudden my app memory is low. I delete emails, messages, Facebook cache, etc (the usual culprits) and 2 minutes later its back. What else can I do?

Is this ROM as stable as 4.1? And is there anyway to get a link for 4.1 and the update patch that came with it? I'd like to have both. It helps when I dance back and forth between ROMS. I'm on MIUI right now...... but I'm in a flashing mood.

Great rom.

3 Things though.

Is there a way to get the battery percentage inplace of the current battery gauge?

Also is there a way to get your album art to display on the lock screen like on stock sense?

Why can't you use the 3g toggle in the power widget?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] erik1213:
Anyone know how to make a 6-bar signal meter? The images are in the framework-res and com.htc.resources, I just cannot seem to get the ROM to access them instead of the 4-bar meter images.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] silverxbv2:
I'm pretty sure it's a services.jar edit. I just don't know where.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] fernando sor:
Those are just images. This is set I believe to drop in 100s. You just need to swap out images with 7zip
[Droid Incredible Android Development] fernando sor:
It is. I was supposed to look into that.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] fernando sor:
not a difficult mod. this will activate whatever 6 bar images you have in com.htc.resources.

this is the service.jar so the bootup will take a bit longer then normal

I went from 3.5 to 4.2 by downloading through rom manager. I wiped dalvik cache & did a full wipe with the install.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] waxlrose:
When using Screen off and lock app for the screen off transitions, does it actually put the phone to sleep like when pushing the power button? I thought it read once that the device couldn't be put to sleep unless the power button was pressed?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
Just install one and the rest will appear.

The application must use a special privilege that you authorize through a security policy. You should have seen a screen that prompted you to activate the security policy for the application. This gives it the ability to put the phone to sleep and lock it.

I did the battery stats reset yesterday with a bumped battery (OEM Red). I have an external charger so I don't need to wait with the phone off. Then I put in my bumped 1500 this morning and it dropped like a rock. Finally I went back to Launcher, and put back in my 1300 Red (the one that I reset with) and now battery life is back to normal, hardly dropping at all. I guess I'm going to have to let the 1500 do it's thing.

As for bumping being needed, my theory is that it's totally hardware related. I believe that the lawyers told the companies to throttle charging so people don't burn themselves in case the battery is defective. Keeping it from not fully charging when turned on will keep it from overheating. Just remember back to the iDevice or the Dell laptop (I believe it was Dell but I could be wrong) that burned some poor guy's balls while he was working with it and charging.

This bump charging is needed with the Eris as well. I even bumped charged my wife's LG flip phone and it took an extra charge with it off. But I only did that once or twice since she gets 3 or 4 days either way. Ahh.. the good ol' days. :-)

MY tether...nnnooooo

Are you using "Wireless Tether" from the market? I did a data clear and tried having windows fix the issue but for some reason it says no network access. Using Windows 7 on a MSI netbook. Only think that has changed is I am on RC3 now instead of 2.5.2
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlss:
Good to hear!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
This really confuses me as I see it a lot. If someone can prove this ROM specifically has anything to do with abnormal battery drain, I would love to read your theories. Besides applications and services using your battery while you are using them, the hardware and kernel affect the battery more than anything. The framework is also, for all intents and purposes, the same as the leak.

Thoughts anyone?

My guess is you have little or no room left on your card. I would suggest never flashing a ROM unless you have 500MB or more of free space on your card.

Here are some simple instructions:

Make sure there is no android.tether folder on your sd card.

Next, uninstall the application.

Moving on, open your phone dialer and dial ##778 and press Call.

Select Edit mode when it prompts you (The password is '000000').

Scroll down to Security and press it.

Edit the S.IP DUN User name so the only thing after the @ symbol is 'vzw3g.com'.

Press back and then scroll down to M.IP Default Profile.

Do the exact same edit as in Security to DUN NAI.

Last, press Menu and then Commit Modifications (The phone will then reboot).

After it reboots, just turn on the mobile hotspot using the Sense widget or the 3G Mobile Hotspot application.

How easy was that?

I reset the battery stats after I flashed your ROM. Bump charged it this morning.

I've got 88% on 5:55 up time and 28:44 awake time.

Of course, I have a 3500 mAh battery...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dustbinge:
Several things regarding battery and SetCPU:

1) After I updated from SR 3.0 RC2 to RC3, I had to bump charge the battery twice and clear battery stats from within Clockworkmod recovery before battery life seemed back to normal. That is, I wall-charged to green within Android O/S, powered off and wall-charged to green, unplugged for ten seconds, wall-charged to green again, booted into CM recovery and did a clear battery stats. After I rebooted into the O/S again, I've only dropped to 97% after 1.5 hours (I've mostly had the screen off but that's still a major improvement over what I saw initially).

2) SetCPU was misbehaving after I restored from Titanium Backup, so I had to redo Menu-Device Selection-AutoDetect Speeds, then open and save each of my SetCPU profiles before they started working normally--i.e. they were not kicking in despite being enabled and getting stuck on my power-sucking charging profile. After all that, SetCPU is behaving normally.

3) So far I've found that the best SetCPU profile configuration for battery savings and responsiveness (little to no lag when waking) when your screen is off is: Screen Off, Priority 100, 422 max, 245 min, Interactive.

4) Since my Quadrants were decent, in the 1400 range at stock speed (998400), I am testing out having my SetCPU "screen on" profile slightly underclocked. It is: Battery <100%, priority 40, 921 max, 245 min, interactive.

Everything seems to be stable now but I'll know better when I've been running RC3 a while longer.

Whew, I thought I was going to have to flash back to RC2 but now it looks like I will stay on RC3 for a while. : )

Can I flash 4.2 full over my current updated 4.2 with patch from 4.1, just clearing cache and dalvik?

I know it sounds a little crazy, but I want to try the full SR4.2 to see if it corrects my current wifi issue (dropping when screen off) without recreating my layout.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TeH PLAYA:
Yes, you can flash 4.2 over 4.0 or 4.1. However, uninstall wireless tether and Adobe Flash first, then flash 4.2. You can also wipe cache and dalvik cache too.

Also make sure your wifi sleep policy is set to never. You might also have router problems (dropped connections). Does wifi behave the same with another ROM or other devices?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ChuckFarley:
I'm actually looking to flash 4.2 over 4.2 to see if that corrects the wifi quirk where the signal drops while the phone's in standby. I've tried pretty much everything else.

I have it working fine on CM7 after flashing a new kernel. I like CM7, it's a awesome ROM, but so is SR. Now this is just a personal point of contention to correct my issue on SR, so if/when I decide to flash back to the best sense ROM I'll be able to download with my phone while the screen's off.

I've taken up too many posts with this, I'll reply when I have a confirmed solution.

I've downloaded an entire Rom while the screen was off. Also, you can't compare a Sense Rom to an AOSP Rom. Everything is different.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] carngeX:
Happens with me too. I'm at work and I just tried it. Started downloading updates from the Market, made sure it started. Turned the screen off, waited a minute, and it stopped about when I turned the screen off. Not like it was a big update either.. only a couple MB for an update.

I'm thinking it does the same on 3G too, but I haven't tried lately.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ChuckFarley:
The only comparison I was trying to make between CM7 and SR4.2 is that they're both great roms.

I was getting the same wifi signal drop with CM7 prior to flashing a new kernel, per your suggestion that the issue may be kernel based on SR. I flashed it directly from recovery and not through rom manager, which I think I may have done when I flashed the SR kernel on rom manger.

I haven't had enough time recently to do some fiddling on my end with your latest rom, to either: flash a different kernel; flash the full 4.2 zip over my update from 4.1 to 4.2; or perform a full wipe and install fresh. A few other posters have mentioned experiencing the same issue, but certainly not enough to suggest that the problem is with your rom, probably just a ghost in the machine for a few of us.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ChuckFarley:
Did you use the update patch or a full wipe and install for 4.2?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] carngeX:
Did the update patch from 4.0 to 4.1. Then patch again from 4.1 to 4.0.
