seems to be official released
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jaykresge:
The problem is that Virtuous was behind even before this GB update. It used the October leak, which was the same kernel used in the November OTA, but the apps were mostly the same as the August OTA (original FROYO update). This left a lot of bugs in place that the November OTA fixed, but Virtuous was never updated to incorporate this.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hextall:
I just recieved the official ota notification to upgrade... But i am running virtuous 3.2.

What should i do here? Install the new ota? Will i lose root?

And to complicate things ... I am using boot manager to run multiple roms.

I have been out of the tinkering game for a while so any help is appreciated.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] caleris:
I believe you will. There are some threads that addressed this when the OTA was supposed to be a few weeks ago.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] INTREPID-NY:
Don't install the OTA update. You're running a rooted phone with a modified OS. rmk40 will hopefully be providing some guidance soon. Likely options include: 1) Instructions on how to install the update, loose root, and loose Virtuous; 2) Wait for a New Virtuous Release; 3) Get the Update with Root but no Virtuous.

I am starting to think we've been totally left out on this ROM. Don't think we'll ever see an update on this anytime soon. I might as well just do a clean install of other ROM out there with more support. Too bad...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] clambert11:
I actually moved on to CM7.1 back in October. I was always a Sense fan but with the right widgets, CM theme, and applications I don't find myself missing it at all now.

If you use CM, make sure you go into the advanced wireless settings and disable the wireless from sleeping. It was the one thing that didn't work right for me and it took awhile to figure out what the problem was.

Now that the source code for ICS has been released, the CM team should probably be working on a ROM for ICS on the Incredible, which should run without issue. I can't wait for that.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Jnai:
I know this ROM is now old, but I had switched to it a long time ago. I recently had to wipe and revert to stock.

The two things I miss most are:

* The Lock Screen (Rotary with the Time, Etc)

* The Alarm Clock (significantly changed from the original app on my phone)

Anyone have any info about these two components? The alarm clock in particular is really nice, wish I could get it back.

How to get back to Stock Gingerbread with Root !

Step 1: http://androidforums.com/incredible-all-things-root/427344-how-root-2-3-4-downgrade-get-s-off.html

Step 2: http://androidforums.com/incredible-all-things-root/427344-how-root-2-3-4-downgrade-get-s-off.html

Note: Downgrade option not necessary if you are already S-Off (previously rooted) as is the case with Virtuous.

Step 3: http://androidforums.com/incredible...egain-root-s-off-htc-unlocked-bootloader.html

Note: I think Step 3 can replace step 2. However, I did both steps 2 and 3.

I have tested this with my Virtuous Incredible and it worked fine.

I use the following applications to backup before reverting to stock. All my contacts were on gmail. If you have phone contacts, in People App use Menu, Import/Export.

LMFAO...I cant stand the Radio questions on these threads...if people are unwilling to read, they will for sure end up with a $500 shiny black brick! and this is coming from a Noob!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JeeperDon:
I just noticed something, my radio is at 1.00.xx.xx., not 2.1.xx. I only did the unrevoked3 thing, then loaded ROMs. I've used a couple Skyraider ROMs, now walked up from 2.0 to 2.3 here. Can I just do the radio upgrade now, while I have 2.3 on the phone? What is the radio thing anyway? I thought it was just FM radio, but it's really the main RF send/receive stuff, right? Recommendations please.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] adamx:
Is yours installed from market or internal or sdcard? Mine is also not the most recent version of phonemypc.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] CiDirkona:
Thanks! This fixed Swype for me -- I even removed and reinstalled it to no avail, but this simple trick did it for me!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wraithdu:
I'm not running this ROM, but thanks to the guy who posted the new Swype beta, it's pimp!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nakk:
Downloading 2.4 now, will try it with the kernel provided and with kingkernel BFS #2.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ACD168:
Thanks for the update rmk. the man.

Camera Sounds Gone

Confirmed - Camera Sounds don't play in Virtuous 2.4 as well.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] INTREPID-NY:
2.4 Install Curiosity: After flashing 2.4 and the first boot, none of screen icons loaded. Upon rebooting, everything is back.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
Honestly, I haven't changed anything associated to that. I wonder if that's the case with all ROMs based on 3.21.605.1.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phoenixs4r:
3g is.dropping randomly using the 2.15 radio in v2.4. Did not have this issue in 2.3.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Empedox:
I'm having this issue with 2.3 so I doubt it's the ROM. Great ROM, by the way.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] vapehooka:
great rom. very happy with it so far

any chance we can get the circle battery mod to work with this without to much work. thank you
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Deyez:
I loaded the following this morning, and it works fine. If that is what your after...

Bah...can't link. In "Themes & Apps"...both of the following work with 2.4

Smooth Super Circle Battery + Smooth Sense Icons

Also got the Zegoe Font installed...adds a nice clean look
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phoenixs4r:
Ihtfp circle battery that can be downloaded via rom manager as well as the awake script both work with this rom as well

[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
You guys are right. I placed the original Gmail.apk in the ROM instead of the one I signed, so it's not allowing the upgrade. I'll update the original post to point to the Gmail update zip and make that available via ROM Manager.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cyclepipe:
rmk, thanks for posting this rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dnoyeb:
Seems our tastes are the same... looking at your changelog, you've changed/removed/added 95% of the same things I did...

Someone was saying they were using skyraider's fixed flash final on this same base rom and hulu works... Might want to incorporate that into the next version instead of the nexus version that doesn't. (or does it?)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TNS201:
uH wHaT r SeNsE rOmZ lOoKz LiKez?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DeaconBoogie:
Very strange...

I just did a wipe and install. The setup app force closes over and over.

Of course, I did the install and immediately loaded the BFS kernel before rebooting. Perhaps this was the reason? Not sure why that would matter, but if anyone knows I'd love to learn.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TNS201:
Try again, do a full data wipe again. Install then go to OS and setup your google account, then try to load the BFS kernel after another reboot to recovery.

Also what radio version you have installed and do you have S-Off installed?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DeaconBoogie:
Yeah, this was my next step. I just installed the kernel after setting up my Google account/etc.

And just as I type this... WHAM! "Sorry! Process system is not responding."

Battery pull time!

What's funny is that this was working perfectly with the other OTA that was released yesterday...

Update: Not sure why this happened, but I booted into recovery and, for ****s and grins (and desperation), cleared the Dalvik cache. I always clear the cache when I mess with kernels and such, so this is not really a new thing for me to try. Anyway, after doing that and booting back up, BFS came up and everything seems stable so far.

S-OFF = yes

Radio = 2.15
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ghostrida:
it's built into the kernel. it's not a bug it's the way they wrote it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmiles7721:
Any chance of adding SPP to the bluetooth stack?

I like Sense but one of the biggest issues for me is the Bluetooth stack that HTC included in the Incredible. It would be great to be able to use Wiimote with Sense.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Asterdroid:
I was under the impression that they were changing the bluetooth stack with the official OTA. Is that not the case?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] LTL11:
can anyone confirm if the wii remote app works with this?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nycrazyg:
I have S-Off. I love this ROM, but I can't seem to get the new updated Voice Search features working, it force closes on some features like 'note to self'. I've seen this occur before but haven't found the fix for it. I had used the official leaked ROM from yesterday, and those features were working fine. Does anyone know if the fix or has it occurring as well. Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Joe92T:
tried to download version 2 and it says the links not valid
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Version 2 is downloading fine more me, right this moment.

@rmk40: Thanks for doing what most of us would want done to this and sharing! I'll be trying it in a few, after my titanium. I've been stuck on the 8/1 leak for a while, because this wouldn't work on X rom and that wouldn't work on Y rom, but finally ready for an update.

Take care!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] metalmenance:
Running V2 of this rom and applied the Blueraider Theme for Sense 2.2

All looks real great, runs very fast even with stock kernal

Sleek and no issues as of yet I have seen....

I was really liking the evoport rom but issues with mms

This one is sweet without the bloatware.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DeaconBoogie:
Mine did this too, however there is an update for "voice search" in the market that resolves the issue. It's a manual update, but it automatic henceforth.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Nic2112:
Thank you for putting this together!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cannonballgsu:

[Droid Incredible Android Development] dnoyeb:
I'm going to test and see if the sound quality has gotten any better... back on my moto droid 1 I used a great bluetooth receiver in my car that sounded just as good as connecting the headset to the line in of the car. however soon as I got the inc, I had to start using the line in instead as the bluetooth sounded like crap... trebles were off, so were mids and deep base... had a crackly type blown speaker sound to it.

will report back on that one for sure... then i'll try using one of those new kernels and see..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cannonballgsu:
thanks - i feel like a dumbass for not seeing that
[Droid Incredible Android Development] anothen:
Don't mean to clutter this thread but I posted this before and noone answered me:

I see a few random reccomendations about kernels but haven't read anything definitive to use with this rom. RMK40 says it is a good thing to use but I have no idea which one to use... I've used BFS #1 twice but am getting a lot of random bugs that didn't happen with the stock kernel along with choppiness.

Any suggestions?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Deyez:
I bumped up to 2.4 and BFS#2 last night. So far so good.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phoenixs4r:
I'm running kings #2 slightly overclocked and have been very stable. If i fully clock it, it tends to crash.

A bit ot, but can someone tell me how much battery u save from being on wifi? I'm getting incredible battery life today, but I'm at a jobsite that has a wifi connection.

Sent from my ADR6300
[Droid Incredible Android Development] anothen:
The opposite. You lose battery by using wi-fi. It just makes download/upload speeds quicker. When you say #2 are you talking about the BFS #2 just released?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
I'd recommend BFS #2, without any overclocking (use SetCPU to control clock speed). If you're having issues with it, you can use the standalone kernel image to get back to stock:

http://www.fourty.net/ftp/public/android/virtuous-kernel_patch.zip

Kernel is in ROM Manager as well to make things easier.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phoenixs4r:
@Anothen

@Anothen,

Yes.

I would post my percentages and time but the results would be incomplete as I have rebooted several times due to the installation of v2.4 and changing the kernsl back/reimplementing themes i lost when flashing the new rom.

Sent from my ADR6300
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rampyDinc:
Actually I've heard the opposite (even though it is counter intuitive). You can, in some instances, hypothetically _save_ battery because it's more battery intensive to be toggling on/off from 3g.

*shrug* but who knows :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] anothen:
awesome- I'll try it out right now. Thanks for your hard work and being attentive to this thread!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thebigshuck2:
For what it's worth, I upgraded to 2.4 and later Kings BFS 2 kernel and am seeing much quicker battery drain than I did with BFS 1. Went back to BFS 1 and everything is normal again. Your results will probably vary though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bokajay@gmail.com:
That is an issue with Sense Froyo... same thing happens on EVO. To be safe you should save your theme after you set up your screens with widgets/icons etc.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Kauffman_c:
Thank you for all the hard work and the speedy updates / revisions. I am loving this. Can't wait to see how this works with a different kernel set.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nakk:
I had the same issue happen to me as well. Right now I'm just using the kernel that's within 2.4 and it seems to be running flawlessly. On BFS #1 I noticed the slight lag and choppiness. Even my tether was running what I think is hot, 43/44C, and it was running for only an hour or so. On the normal 2.4 kernel it's at 39C right now and it's been running for hours. I have yet to test BFS #2 on 2.4 though. (I'm not overclocked or anything)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cmo220:
I decided to give this rom a try. Everytime I open titanium it gives the application from unknown sources error. I have that checked. And have unchecked and checked again. Any ideas?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] LTL11:
I have searched this thread and have seen multiple Questions about HULU but no responses or answers.

I have run skyraider 2.5.2, CM6 stable and this ROM today.

Hulu works on the 1st two but not on this one.

Any ideas as to why? Or is this something that is not going to be supported? Either way is fine, Love the ROM, I was just curious.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jaypr9:
I've heard the same that it's actually better for battery life to leave on wifi. especially if your say at home where you dont have to go searching for any other signal.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dpwhitty11:
Can I flash the new 2.4 over 2.3?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] INTREPID-NY:
Thanks for the tip.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] fortesquieu:
yes, don't need to wipe.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Picao:
Had the same problems and this fix worked only for a short time. I still would get random lock ups until I installed the new Swype beta that is posted here. Since installing, Swype runs smoother, does not randomly lock up (would try to reply to text and had to change input device, then it would work again) so in my opinion - lol - get the new beta and install it, you will have better luck.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] INTREPID-NY:
Yes, I just did and it worked fine. It's always a good idea to backup your current working ROM and Data by booting into Recovery and performing the backup there.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
In titanium, Menu-->More-->Reload application
[Droid Incredible Android Development] portuguesem:
I just updated to 2.4 and everything is working great. HOw did you get Swype? are you on the beta program? Would love to get the latest beta!

Thanks again to rmk....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
Reached out to ihftp69 today (creator of SkyRaider) to see how he had addressed the Flash devil voices issue. He was kind enough to share his findings, which I've verified work on Virtuous as well.

I'll be making a patch available shortly. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jskolm:
That is great news. I love it when developers are able to work together like that and share findings.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] OSully:
rmk40, good news. Are you going to address Hulu not working as well?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] manatti:
just want to share that the 2.4 is. draining the battery pretty fast for me with bf s 2 I went from 66% to 46 in one hour. Only made 1 call for 8 min.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sammy68:
Same thing here battery life is cumbling since updating to 2.4 .. I really like the Rom though great work ..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sheepforwheat:
Not 100% positive, but I may be experiencing quick drain as well. SEems like sky raider 2.5.2 was draining les quickly than this, however this rom is charging much faster than sky raider.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] k_flan:
I haven't noticed quick drain, but it's too early to tell IMO. I did a full wipe before updating. I have had some long calls, some wifi and 3g browsing, nandroid backup, and i'm still going strong. *shrug*
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sheepforwheat:
One other request: could you move peep, car panel, stocks, and friend stream to the data/apps directory for easy uninstall? Don't most people consider these bloat?

They are located in system/app and require a terminal or root explorer to remove/move.

(Yes I am aware that removing friend stream can potentially cause issues with face book contact sync. I personally don't use facebook contact sync)

Thank you, great work!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] manatti:
I rolled back to your older 2.2 Rom bases off its with kernel 2 bfs and its not dropping. Has moved 1% in 25 min .
[Droid Incredible Android Development] fliptwister:
Thank you rmk40 for your work. I'm loving the rom!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TCommander:
Funny but I just had a friend mention this very thing. v2.2 seemed to be the smoothest and easiest on battery.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] manatti:
I still appreciate the work. The tons run way better than stock and I have no complainant in this old Rom. Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] n99hockey:
I am really digging this ROM, running 2.3 so far, was going to update to 2.4 but see a few battery drain posts, I will hold off since I am getting great battery life thus far. Also loaded up Hyrda Kernal Undervolted so that might help as well, either way here is my question.

Will there be an OTA option for this ROM in ROM Manager in the future?

Thanks keep up the great work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] anothen:
Already in rom manager under virtuous
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ACD168:
I had a strange problem on this ROM, when I applied my MM theme to change the geniewidget to transparent the app is gone?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
Guys, really, there is absolutely no way anything I have changed would impact battery life like that. I wish I could influence it that drastically but I can't. Nothing has changed. What I have seen, from Froyo/Sense in general is that sometimes following a boot the system doesn't properly sleep. When you're seeing that, reboot again and it should just go away.

To the people who are reporting this, have you updated any apps which could cause this the past few days? I was using Gtalk Updater (a Locale plugin), which recently had a 1.1 release preventing the phone from sleeping. As soon as I uninstalled it everything went back to normal.

In the end, I'm sorry, but there is simply no way that battery life changed from any 2.x to another. If it was ever fine for you then it's fine now; something else has changed on your device (review your app updates recently). Please try to refrain from blaming the ROM right away when specific applications are more often the culprit than anything else, especially in this case.

To anyone holding off going to 2.4 because of these reports, I encourage you not to wait. This ROM has thousands of users at this point (I have webstats to track downloads). A few anecdotal reports should not deter you when the majority is having no issues whatsoever (including me, I eat my own dog food).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
As you know it's in ROM Manager now but I think you're asking about automatic notifications of new versions and whatnot. I was working on that a bit earlier. After 2.5 is release, subsequent releases should prompt you to update automatically.

Hope that answers the question.
