The issue has been known for a while and you have to 'bump charge' every time to avoid the 5-10% drop. HTC is aware of the issue.

Here's their response about fixing the "bump charge".

"Dear **********,

False alarm, I looked around and found out having zero space available on it makes it unable to mount, lol, hooked the sd card up to my computer directly and bam, 0 space available, just had to clean it of some junk taking up space and it mounts fine

Great ROM, and thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Tyler 3:
Has anybody compared the new kernel to one of Kingz Kernels? Just curious if there is any major difference.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] fader01:
I made one a few days ago it is HERE
[Droid Incredible Android Development] anicotra:
About a week on 2.6 with no issues at all. So I figured its time to try adrlnalyne's kernel to see if battery life can be improved. Even though battery life was already good with the stock kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] angryspoon:
Is there any way to get the optical trackpad to wake the phone and get past the slide bar also?

I know ROMs such as UD 8.0 and Ruby allow it but it would seem that this one does not.

Also what is the easiest way to change you boot animation on this ROM? The app Boot Animation Changer does not seem to work on Sense ROM's.

Thanks for any help.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Studmf:
Put the new kernel on my wife phone with setcpu screen off profile after I made sure it was stable on mine. She was so happy with her new battery life. I too am pleased and just wanted to say thanks for everything so many of you have worked so diligently on. Especially rmk, adrynylene, koush...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] CatsTide:
what are you setting the speeds at on the screen off profile?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] INTREPID-NY:
I'm using 384 / 245 (same as rmk40).

I wonder if the phone would still function properly at 245 / 245 as a screen off profile?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Studmf:
Same.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
Probably would work but I set it to 384 so that it has some room to deal with bluetooth and phone calls if it needs the horsepower. I easily go a full day at this point and I've got all kinds of synchronization constantly occurring.

Your battery life is going to depend more on radio connectivity than ANYTHING else and it's not even close. And by radio, both wifi and 3g. If your wifi network isn't using WMM (I have a post on this on xda), you're going to drain a ton of battery. It's not on at work, so even though I'm on wifi there I drain much faster. So really, there's only so much we can do with ROMs and kernels and I think we've reached that point. At least as far as 2.2 goes.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nmyeti:
I know i keep saying this, but great rom. It's my favorite so far. Anyway i do have one issue that i noticed tonight with voice search. When i setup Google voice to be the default txt message service, voice search/actions force closes when it tries to send a txt message. When I clear GV's defaults, everything works as expected and voice search asks me to choose which program i want to complete the action.

I'm using the leaked GV with the 2.6 rom + the revolution theme and the voice search fix from rom manager.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] CARTERRYAN22:
I can't find how to get into EZ Customizer, I downloaded it and the changes I want via RM, the zips are on the sd card. Is it an interface I need to install?! Rom is awesome btw!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] djh816:
Wish music would start playing again after it auto pauses for navigation.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spjoneser:
Yep seems to be a 2.2 problem in general:(
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rfarrah:
That is really INCREDIBLE battery use. You must be near about 8 towers all day. I'm very jealous!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbdan:
I have. And the custom kernel is smoother, at the same setcpu settings, than BFS#2. Battery life is a touch better with the custom kernel as well.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] W4LLY:
I'm not sure if it's my DInc, but I'm experiencing a lot of switching between 3g and 1x. I'm not sure if i was just in bad spots (though, i'm in metro ny and new jersey and VZ service is pretty solid and I didn't remember having problems with my Eris)..but just curious if maybe there's something software related?

I'm running;

Android 2.2, Baseband: 2.15.00.07.29, Kernel Version 2.6.32.15-gb7b01d1

Build number: Virtuous v2.4..

er, maybe I need to update to 2.6?

Edit Add:

Can I go from 2.4 to 2.6 without a wipe?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] flyride:
Bad Clockwork Recovery install? Clear ROM Manager download cache, repush Clockwork Recovery through ROM Manager, allow it to reboot, DON'T interrupt the update with the power button, boot the phone and try your ROM Manager download again.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ca86803:
Great ROM and thank you for it, I have it on my incredible and my GF does to.

She wanted the Incredible Revolution but when I installed it trough Rom Manager it makes the phone go into loop boot and nothing will fix... I did wipe data and cache before Installing...

But I am still having the problem. I had to restore to fix it... I tried installing IncRevo Twice trough Rom Manager and same results.

Any ideas? what this could be? I really would like to install it via Rom Manager as it makes everything easier but I don't know why it does not work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kmcrane:
my verizon

I installed the Virtuous 2.6 rom, and now when i use the "my verizon" app it errors and says "your moble number could not be validated. please try again later." Is that expected and i should not use this app? or do i need to do something?

Thanks, I like the speediness and cleanness of this rom
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Danariel:
I seem to have lost my Gmail application entirely. I got an error when I tried to open Gmail, error and FC on com.gmail.android.gm, so I used Titanium to uninstall it, and tried reinstalling using the Gmail 2.2.1 apk, but no luck. Help? Do I need to just reinstall the ROM?

edit: Ok, tried reinstalling the ROM, same thing. Crap!

re-edit: Looked deeper at the iniial post, saw the Gmail 2.2.1 apk in a zip file, downloaded and installed it via Recovery, WIN! No more problem.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dixonba:
@kmcrane:

Try it with your wifi turned off...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] n99hockey:
Yes you can.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] richclayton:
wav files

Having the same problem anyone know what to do to fix this.

I absolutely love this rom keep checking for updates like a crackhead waiting for next fix. I like the Rom Manager updates so much I bought it, next week I will donate to dev for this rom great wok
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dang69:
I don't think it's the rom, I think it's Froyo. Lots of people speaking up that they can no longer play voicemail distrubuted in wavs.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kmcrane:
OK I tried it with wifi off before I posted this ( I read before I posted :) )

I tried to *228 and option 2 or 1 doesn't work. option 2 tries then hangs up, option 1 tries fails, then transfers me to a rep. (where I hang up)

1 thought: I have S-Off. Do I need S-On?

I followed this guide to go from (ruu) 2.2 ([GUIDE] How to downgrade from OTA RUU 2.2 to 2.1)

then after I went back to stock 2.1 and used ( [GUIDES] Root, nand unlock, radio update, Froyo 2.2 update, Restore stock radio/Rom ) to get the new Virtuous 2.6.

Phone works made a couple calls internet works, just Verizon can't confirm my number.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] flyride:
This happens from time to time even on 2.1. Just try the app again and it should go through.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] angryspoon:
Anyone? In terms of the boot animation I do not want to use ADB just the manual way. Anyone know the process of where to drop a bootanimation you downloaded onto your SD so that the phone will boot with it? Any terminal emulator commands or whatever?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Amin Sabet:
I second this request. Having a custom kernel included by default contradicts the mission statement:

The stock kernel is working very well for me with this ROM.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kmcrane:
Well I drove to work and tried it again. It works! False alarm. Thank you for your help and patients. :o
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jskolm:
Using Root Explorer you can navigate to /system/customize/resource and drop the bootanimation.zip there. But you need to rename it to VZW_bootanimation.zip
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JoeyBert:
Probably gonna make the jump from SkyRaider 3.0 vanilla in my search of a better life for my battery. Good decision? Bad decision?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
I am jumping back to skyraider sense myself..which is where I came from in the first place.

In terms of battery life.. though the 2.2 offical release kernel is much better.. it still cannot compete with King's kernel.

IMO.. King's BFS Kernel #1 gives the best battery life.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JoeyBert:
I've tried every King kernel and nothing has made a difference, although they're better than stock.

What didn't you like about this one that you're jumping back?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] WhammyDroid:
It is a bug with the app not with the rom. I got this on stock 2.1 & stock 2.2.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bob_frapples:
Love this rom

1. EVO camera, EVO mms - what do those add?

2. Installed the gallery and GV leak. Gallery is showing up but can't find the GV widget. Where is it?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
Well, I've never been comfortable with the whole data/app and system/app deal.. I am also having issues with installing goodies from the ROM manager on this one..

I like skyraider for the support he gives and also for the stability of the ROM.

that's just my own personal take though.. I am sure every developer tries to do his or her best.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
that's really surprising.. because for me King's Kernel made a significant difference right out of the box without any setcpu or task killers.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JoeyBert:
I use SetCPU with 1 profile for screen off. it doesn't seem to help at all. Kings #3 worked for me initially. was giving me like 15 hours, which was the best I've had so far. Then I reset the batt stats on someones recommendation and after that it's never been the same.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
try using king's BFS kernel without setCPU (setCPU uinstalled) and see how it works.. I had issues with setCPU and King's kernel and learned that apparently their governors clashed.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Shakey169:
Was having a problem with installing goodies too, stopped wiping data/cache and worked.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] INTREPID-NY:
King's BFS kernel undervolts. This can cause stability problems. In addition, some users reported GUI sluggishness. An interesting kernel for sure, but not 100% stable & problem free which is the goal of Virtuous.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JoeyBert:
can you explain more what you mean here? I'm still a little new to all of this
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
you mean wiping data/cache solve the problem for you? Nice to know..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JoeyBert:
I've noticed much sluggishness with the BFS Kernels, mainly on the home screens after unlocking the phone
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
Virtuous ROM is essentially Stock ROM.. but with some modifications.. the usual directory for applications in android is /system/app.

Stock froyo applications installed in this directory are not uninstallable from the phone itself because firstly.. the system folders are mounted as read only.. (easily overcome).. and secondly the stock apps are not visible thru an uninstaller program..

From what I understand virtuous moved some of the apps from this stock folder to /data/app..which is a read-write folder.. thereby making it easily removable for a user..Also, all user apps..apps that you download..and install.. will be written in /data/app folder in virtuous ROM.

So in a way, this is really not stock setting.

I prefer all my apps to be in one place.. namely.. /system/app.. the fact that it is in read only is easily overcome using root explorer.. from which I can delete stock apps directly without even using an uinstaller. I can also drop apks into this folder (some apks cannot be installed by clicking on them.. they have to be either pushed via adb or dropped into the system/app folder thru root explorer and rebooted).

I am anal about not having apps all over the place.. and also not having to rename my custom boot animations to VZW_bootanimation.zip..and either disable the verizon's stock bootanimation or replace it.. which is what I'd have to do in virtuous. As opposed to Skyraider for example.. you can simply drop the custom bootanimation.zip into the /system/media folder without having to mess with altering the stock boot animation.

It's personal preference more than anything else.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
yep.. that is a known issue.. surprisingly, this delay problem is not there if you use a rotary lock screen (skyraider's).. on the rom. it seems to be quick as it should be.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] corefile:
I'm having a problem with my gyro on this ROM.

I'm doing a full data wipe, cache, davlic then installing. I'm not doing a single thing, fresh install and after using it for several minutes, all my apps open in the sideways view and are stuck that way. I got to settings to reset my g-calibration and the level bubble is stuck to one side. I re-calibrate and all is fine for a couple minutes, then it does it again. I've done three installs, full data wipe, not installed a single thing, clean fresh Virtious 2.6 and I gotten this problem all three times? Any ideas?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Shakey169:
Not wiping for extras.

No, NOT wiping when installing goodies worked.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thebigshuck2:
I just tried to install the Smooth Sense icons set on Virtuous 2.6, Kingxkernal BFS1 and it caused a boot loop. Anyone else have that problem? I'd love to change the stock battery icon but haven't found one that works on this ROM, which I don't want to switch away from.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
okay, but I never wipe data/cache when installing goodies as a rule.. and with virtuous.. it never worked.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scope666:
+1 Just tried myself, also had a boot loop (I was using Virtuous Custom Kernel)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Shakey169:
I've installed the smooth sense icons + the circle battery and had no problems. Haven't tried any other kernels though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
if frameworks are different..it'll cause a boot loop..are you downloading it from the rom manager under virtuous? if that is the case, the framework shouldn't be different.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scope666:
I had the Rotary Lock Screen installed when I tried the icons + circle battery package and had a boot loop. I also had the Virtuous Custom Kernel ... it has to be one of those two causing the loop.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
no idea.. .. do you get this problem with say, skyraider or other roms?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scope666:
No, it's not available in Rom Manager (yet) :-)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
skyraider's instructions on the lockscreen says that you may have to install the custom theme mods again.. I suggest you remove all mods to the status bar, then install the lock screen and after that install the custom status bar. If you are using virtuous rom.. make sure you are installing the lockscreen FOR virtuous
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
check the framwork.js file.. I bet they are different.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] corefile:
Nope, I was running Skyraider 3.1 Sense and never had an issue.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] skakid9090:
Anyone else get soft key lag with the custom kernel?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
it's a peculiar problem.. I myself couldn't get rid of my issues in virtuous after repeated wipes/installs.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
Virtuous now has a dedicated website -- http://www.virtuousrom.com. I'll be migrating content from the thread to the site and adding links.

Having 100+ pages of thread interleaved with my own communication about changes in the ROM had been going down the path of unmanageable. Hopefully the new site will alleviate that. I'll still be posting here and updating this thread, usually with references to updates on the site.

Let me know what you guys think.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scope666:
That would be a nice option to get in Rom Manager (under Virtuous)

The main thing I like about Circle Battery is having a numeric value for the battery (like the option in CM6)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
try installing sky raider's circle battery.. there two options available with it.. white status bar with circle battery and black status bar with smooth circle battery.. both have the remaining percentage number in it.. (I prefer the black smooth battery circle).. if I am not mistaken.. you should be able to install them over virtuous.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] -Michael_:
Great idea! THANKS.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thebigshuck2:
I had the Rotary Lock Screen but not the Virtuous Custom Kernel, so I guess that means it's probably the Rotary Lock.

Tried to install the smooth black notification bar from Skyraider through Rom Manager and got another boot loop. Apparently battery mods don't play nicely with the Rotary Lock Screen.

After going back to the Stock lock screen the Skyraider notification bar seems to work perfectly, apparently we need to choose between the rotary lock and the circle battery style for now.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ca86803:
@ RMK4

Hey I posted earlier about having problems trying to install INC revolution where it gets me stuck on a boot loop installing VIA rom manager..

Are there any instructions on the proper way to do it? because whenever I just download the files and install wipe date, it keeps me on a boot loop.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Iamshakes:
Using the EZ-Customizer to remove apps like FM radio, facebook, etc. Is it a strait delete or is the apk relocated.

Also is it possible to get a way to add the widget / application back using ez-customizer as well without doing a full flash of the rom? Ie if someone deleted fm radio or the htc widgets and wanted it back in the future.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] normg:
Any suggestions on a feed app??
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lazycrazyboi:
Is anyone else having issues with the htcclock/weather app? I get no updates for the weather or any animation.

when i try and bring up weather from the widget all i get is the clock opening up...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jmiller98:
What Kernals R U Running

Has anyone tried KingKlick's or Hydra Kernal vs the stock with this ROM? What are your experiences?

Thanks,
[Droid Incredible Android Development] INTREPID-NY:
Great idea. Thank You.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] blayz77:
i cant seem to figure out how to change the icons. how does one accomplish this
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rayporsche:
Currently running '2.6.32-Hydra-ocuv-ov-V10' kernel at 1152 Mhz max..........very smooth and stable, not one single freeze or reboot ! nice combination; awesome ROM + awesome kernel = awesomer outcome....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
Does the lag persist or is it temporary shortly after turning the screen on? I'm running the custom kernel myself and am not running into an issue unless I'm not understanding it correctly. If it's just temporary, try installing SetCPU and setting the frequency governor to "ondemand" and see if that helps.

It should "just work". I'll test it myself sometime tonight and get back to you guys on it.

Didn't get that far. :) There's actually a bit more to it than flashing the ROM, since I'm diliberately storing state information so that I don't reinstall apps you've removed after a full re-install. I can provide an option to "restore all apps" which is the best I can do. Otherwise I'd have to rebuild all the reinstall options anytime the ROM was re-based.

Can you clarify? I may have missed the question earlier in the thread.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JoeyBert:
downloading 2.6 from ROM manager - corrupt zip file. any one else?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] blayz77:
welp i got stuck into a boot loop just now. running virtuos 2.6 /revolution theme

i installed a few other things like the hide status bar icons and the white battery mod, basically most of the stuff you find under the theme.

after i installed the rotary bar with music mod for the virtuos using the rom manager i noticed that after it rebooted the white battery mod reverted back to stock battery. so i reinstalled the white battery mod with rom manager and it put me into boot loop /sigh
[Droid Incredible Android Development] starvenmarven:
Ya im having same problem. Loaded the rotary lock screen and bat went back to stock. When i tried to add any addon i get a boot loop
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
I need to document this more clearly. The Revolution theme and Rotary Clock conflict with one another. And the status bar mods conflict with Revolution (should be fine with Rotary Clock).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] corefile:
IN the download section, I downloaded the full rom and stock kernels and the md5 hashes match, but when I downloaded the custom kernel the md5 hash does not match what is posted. I redownload twice and still get the same md5 checksum, and its different then what you have posted for the md5. Can you check that file?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] blayz77:
interesting i thought i noticed somethign different with the theme after i installed the hide icons but wasnt sure all of what changed except that mayby the status bar drop menu was no longer see through.

hmmm thats a bummer i guess ill just stick with the revolution theme then, i can do without the rotary bar cause i like the white battery mod. but that sucks about the hide icons messing with the theme cause i really liked not haveing the clock in the status bar seems really redundant to have a clock in the status bar
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scope666:
I had the same boot loop, so I ADB'd in and just renamed HTCLockScreen.apk to HTCLockScreen.bak At least you get the stock Froyo lock screen this way with charge status and the sound on / off slider. (I also pushed the Google DeskClock.apk so you don't have an alarm that can't be shut off. ;-)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
I've documented some of the conflicts here:

http://www.virtuousrom.com/2010/09/multiple-mods-compatibility-and-boot.html

Please let me know if you guys run into others I have not covered. I'll add them to the list.
