Sorry for the lack of updates. Been putzing around with CM7 #23 and Redemption 2.3 (a ROM That I didn't give a fair shake to). I also don't have an account with a good uploading site.

If you're having a problem with a specific app, here's what worked for me.

1. Download a program that allows you to make your own ZIP files (I like and use 7ZIP).

2. Download Redemption 2.3

3. Go into the Redemption ZIP and look for \system\app, then find the app(s) you are looking for.

4. On your desktop, make folder called "system," and inside that folder make another folder called "app." Inside the app folder, paste the app(s) you needed from Redemption. NOTE: only use apps that are on the list I made a few posts back.

5. Right click the "system" folder on your desktop, find the "7ZIP" option and select "add to archive." Change the option to make into into a .zip rather than a .tz or whatever the default is.

6. Place the .zip on your SD card and flash it as you normally would. You should not have to clear data/cache for most apps.

Let me know if the directions are unclear, if you have any problems running this, or are too timid to try. Also, do NOT flash all apps, only the ones you have having problems with. If it aint broke, don't fix it!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spjoneser:
I didn't think making a flashable zip was that easy? There always seems to be some other info in a flashable zip other than just what you are flashing. But if all else fails you could just push through adb?

Thanks for the info.

Curious as to why rmk has not been more involved in this situation?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jaykresge:
I'm a hack, not a developer. There is generally more to it, but for a simple addition of an app or two, it really is that easy. One thing that I like to do is to unzip a ROM, add in my ringtones/alarms, then re-zip it. This puts my ringtones on the phone without using user available space (the 748MB), rather than the EMMC or SD card. The benefit is that when the phone is connected to the PC and mounted, my ringtones still work.

To be fair, this is a hobby to most ROM Developers. I don't see him making $50k/year off donations for a ROM he cooks for two phones. I'm disappointed he hasn't responded (I first alerted him to this in December via PM here on over at AF with no response). I just get the feeling he's losing interest in the Incredible in general as he's seemingly moved to the G2. But still, I appreciate the work he has done.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] xxxdc5:
I hope i'm not THAT guy right now buuuuuuut my phone keeps sporadically rebooting itself. Every few hours it seems. maybe 2-3 times a day. Not really sure why its happening but how can I assess this and fix the issue?

any ideas?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spence341:
Did you flash a different kernel? I would change that first and see if it improves.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] WhammyDroid:
Thank you! Trying now...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] xxxdc5:
I've used like 5 different kerbals now. Stock virtuous, Lou's. 4,6,7,8, and the virtuous custom in ROM manager. All had the same result
[Droid Incredible Android Development] WhammyDroid:
I would do a full wipe and re-install if you have not done it already. Then re-install any apps from the market.

Are you running any other mods?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] xxxdc5:
mehhh I didnt really want to do that because it's only happened every once in a while. I dont have any other mods i'm pretty sure. I dont really want to redo all my settings and home screens and blah blah blah

I've actually had a pretty good day with running the custom virtuous kernal, no reboots so maybe I wont have any problems... we'll see.

edit: and just today as its been sitting plugged in, in my room i've seen it reboot at least 3 times... fu*king wonderful
[Droid Incredible Android Development] pkopalek:
Is DSP manager working as expected for everyone using this ROM?

I turn up the Equalizer in every area for 'Phone Speaker', so that speakerphone calls are louder.

But checking the box and changing the equalizer doesn't seem to do it. Has anyone found that a reboot fixes it? (Doesn't seem to for me).

Is DSPManager supposed to make it louder if I lift up every area of the equalizer?

The Loud Volume flash that I have just edits a couple of the Audio .csv files in /system/etc, but the Incredible seems to have different (or non-existent) files than my old Droid Eris.

What does everyone else use to make their phone much louder, on this ROM?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] softwarr8:
hboot 0.92

Can I get the link to hboot 0.92. The link on the first page takes me to about:blank and nerver gives me the file.

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] WhammyDroid:
I removed the app.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] pkopalek:
So is there something else you recommend to make volume louder?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
Be Careful

Blown speakers are right behind "faulty radio hardware" on DINC returns. I wouldn't be seeking anything to make a DINC louder ... unless you are bored and want to enter Refurb Hell(tm).

I am intrigued by the discovery that 26(?) apps were not the most recent when v3.2 was released. Did RMK ever respond to whether that could be possible?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spjoneser:
+1 I'm on my 3rd Dinc due to blown external speaker. . In fact I have thought that if I knew what frequencies were most likely to cause such, I would use dsp to turn those down. I leave the speaker strings alone and only use dsp to improve headphone output. I don't use headphones much but do connect it to my car's aux everyday.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jaykresge:
He ignored me for two months, then came on here when others started to concur, and said that it's not true. After that I posted which apps were different, as well as a specific difference in the music app. He's largely just ignored the issue.

I find now that Redemption smokes Virtuous and is actually updated. This is a borderline dead ROM. All due respect to RMK, he's a talented dev and gets kudos for that. But, if you ignore your community, you eventually fail. Plus, he's made it no secret that he's moved on from the Incredible to the G2. That ROM gets all of his attention now.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] WhammyDroid:
How did you determine what apps have been updated? What method did you use?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jaykresge:
You can actually download the November 2010 update (which is 17.7MB) and see which apps are patched or added in. From there I just pulled those apps from the stock RUU and compared them to Virtuous. He's using the kernel from the September leak, which is the same as what's used in the NOV OTA. But, he's still using the apps from the August OTA, not the November OTA.

But it doesn't matter. The easiest method is to just use the apps and notice the difference. Go back to stock and load up HTC's music player and Google Navigation. Then, do the same on Virtuous 3.2 and watch the bugs fly. It's the same bugs that existed in the August OTA that we complained about incessantly until the fix in November.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
It is what it is.

I see no reason to criticize rmk. Virtuous is a great starter ROM. It is easily customizable, and once a user is comfortable working with it, switching kernels, doing mods, they are better prepared to move on to other ROM's further from stock. For some users, it's all they'll ever need --- regardless of the apps.

I didn't want to do a full wipe before tiptoeing into ROM flashing. Virtuous was perfect for that.

I'm now deciding whether to go to Re-Engineered or Magnolia, but I would have never considered either had Virtuous not been such an easy flash.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spjoneser:
This Rom has ultimatley served it's purpose and met it's original goals. It is the enhanced version and easily moddified version of the stock software. I understand the frustration in the lack of rmk's prescence but also understand that he has on several occasions made it clear that this is what we have until any other kind of official update.

And truth be told, I have tried several other roms and ultimately keep coming back to the Ultra reliable, super stable....Virtuous!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] pkopalek:
Thank you for this. I guess I'm overdue for a bluetooth stereo in the car (or one with aux input).

Great ROM btw. The first and last one I'll ever use.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] digitalicecream:
Except that its not on the latest source, and the bluetooth volume is set to zero everytime I make a call. I'm a fan of Virtious, but I've been on skyraider athena for 2 days now and I'm not coming back.

good riddance to me.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jaykresge:
But that's the problem. We have had another update, the OTA in November. He updated the kernel from the leak, but he never included the Sense apps from that update. I think he may have just quit on the Incredible version, because he's moved on to the G2.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spjoneser:
Gotcha.....Guess what I should have said is that whether right or wrong rmk has made it clear that this is what we get for now. And I'm sure the lack of involvement will have others moving to other roms. Seems that once you get the custom rom bug it's fun to move on to more customized roms.

Thank you for helping us to update the older apps.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Enjoy your choice ROM. That's what it's all about. Never experienced the bluetooth problem you described, though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
Delete Folders?

I think you have all convinced me to find a more up to date ROM; and I am leaning toward Magnolia.

Once I move off of Virtuous, are there any folders on the SD card I can delete? Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kkinder:
Although I downloaded the full ROM via ROM Manager, I'm not seeing EZ Customizer. Am I missing something?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spjoneser:
It is directly below the rom in rom manager?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] infotechsailor:
Virtuous is Most bad Ass with this mod/theme. I've found my home until dInc OTA's GB, as if that will ever happen.

This mod is just for the notification icons, and pull down status window with toggle widgets. The launcher isn't part of this zip, but i like the stock sense launcher (except for remapped to have apps in the middle, gvoice on the right).

XDA THREAD

IncredibleForum thread

pulldown notification widget mod for Virtuous

-Get the Zip ::black bg:: or ::white bg::

-Boot into your CWM recovery, in advanced menu clear the dalvik Cache

-Use CWM to install the ZIP

Make sure to Clear Dalvik Cache or you'll get boot loops.

This needs to be in rom manager
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Looks good. I note you have one of the earlier HeyItsLou kernels with multitouch over Virtuous. Couldn't you run #7?

I have the pull-down widgets in white, cause they're easier to see in daylight, where the screen is so easily washed out.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] infotechsailor:
sorry i should note that those aren't my screen shots, i pulled them from the incredibleforum... i'm actually running the virtuous #3 kernel... but i agree the white pull down would be easier to see in daylight, i just rarely use my phone outside so I'm loving the sexiness of the transparent black glass theme.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] marcmarshall:
Just put Virutous on my new replacement phone over the stock ROM. Installed without a hitch and without wiping data.

I tried to install the rotary lock and the color icons but they both fail in recovery. Couldn't see what was happening when I used ROM Manager but I tried the install of rotary lock manually in recovery I got an error message. Something about some type of scripting being deprecated in the new versions.

Are these no longer compatible?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jaykresge:
Which clockwork recovery are you using?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] marcmarshall:
I had 3.0.0.8 I then tried 3.0.0.5 (the earliest I can flash in ROM manager).

Edit- Actually it is kind of strange. I just bought the Premium yesterday. The title bar says Premium v3.0.1.0 Under recovery it says 3.0.0.7 ( just flashed that one). The changelog doesn't have anything after 3.0.0.2 except 3.0.0.9 (which is not even an option for me in ROM Manager).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jaykresge:
There are two types of scripts; Amend (update) and Edify (updater). Clockwork Recovery 3.x ONLY works with Edify, whereas 2.x was designed for Amend, but will work for most Edify scripts. Most older flash-able zips won't work in 3.x.

You can downgrade to 2.5.1.2, but it has to be done manually and not through ROM Manager.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] marcmarshall:
Thanks, that clears it up. So does anyone have a link for an edify script for the latest HTC stock sense ROM?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MicroMod777:
Does this ROM have the pulldown notification widgets?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] platodd:
Does anyone know why this rom will no longer work on my Inc? I have tried everything from different CWM Recoveries to unrooting and re-rooting. I have flashed from recovery and rom manager, wiped everything, tried without wiping and still I get boot loops at the white "HTC Incredible" screen. If anyone who has successfully installed this rom could post what HBoot, Recovery, and Radio version you had at the time, also the method you used.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] marcmarshall:
I recently replaced my phone so i started flashing again. I flashed Virtuous with 3.xx version of CM. My radio is 2.15.00.07.28 Hboot is .19 My new phone is SLCD screen.

I flashed first to WarmZ2.2 and then tried Virtuous. I did a full wipe when I flashed WarmZ but did not wipe when I went from that to Virtuous. Seemed to work fine.

I have had occasion where i got stuck on reboot after flashing but just removing the battery and then restarting usually worked. That may have happened this time, I can't remember.

Make sure you have the proper Hboot. That is the only reason I can think of that you cannot flash

The only problem I am having now is trying to flash add ons like rotary lock, fonts, etc. Virtuous and WarmZ have the files written with the older scripts that only work with the 2.xx versions of CM. These all don't work with the new versions of CM/ROM Manager and no one seems to be bothering with updating them on their websites or with ROM Manager. Very frustrating. Don't know if this problem could be related to your issue. If it is you would need to install an earlier version of CM. You can't do this in ROM Manager because it only provides 3.xx series. However I can't imagine that the ROM developers are providing ROM flashes for ROM Manager that won't work. That said I'm surprised to see all these files that are incompatible being provided.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] platodd:
My HBoot is .92 rom manager and virtuous website both say this is required to flash it. You say yours is .19?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jaykresge:
Stock ROMs (various): Link

Stock ROM minus bloatware: Link
[Droid Incredible Android Development] marcmarshall:
sorry,brain glitch, mine is .92
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hextall:
No, but there's a modification for virtuous to add these in. It's somewhere in the themes and apps forum.

I did it, but it was with an older version of clockworkmod recovery... so not sure if it'll work with the new one or not.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] stfugtfo85:
Why can't I get the EVO camera? I Keep flashing it in the extra goodies section, but I still have the stock evo camera.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] marcmarshall:
Do a search for the amend2edify tool. It can convert the scripts for older CM to work with the newer versions. That might do it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] stfugtfo85:
I saw that tool but it looks complicated. Would flashing an old version of clockwork able me to get the evo camera? If so, I can do that through rom manager.

EDIT: Nevermind, rom manager only has 3.0.0.5 and up CWM
[Droid Incredible Android Development] marcmarshall:
It's actually east to use. Just put the file on your pc, open the app and point it to the zip. It will rewrite it and rename and save the original file. Just set the options first.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] stfugtfo85:
Tried to open the evo camera zip file in that program and I get the error, "update script not found in zip file."

I don't know what else to do, but I want the evo camera so bad.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] marcmarshall:
That's odd. I was thinking of trying the EVO camera anyway so I'll give a go now. I'll keep you posted.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] stfugtfo85:
That would be great, thanks. You seem much more knowledgeable than me.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] marcmarshall:
I installed the EVO camera with Rom Manager. I have the latest version so the file is compatible. That would explain the message you got when you tried to run amend2edify- nothing to update. Are you trying to back up your ROM at the same time? If so how much space do you have on your sd card. If it's too low it won't run.

So now that I have the EVO camera, what is the advantage?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] stfugtfo85:
On screen button to take pics. If you don't see it, then you still have the stock incredible camera. When flashing the evo camera, it seems like everything goes through fine, but it never really installs.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] stfugtfo85:
I have no idea what I did different, but I just tried to flash it through rom manager again and it finally worked.

I did the same exact thing as I've done the last 5 times when trying to flash it. Hmm...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] pronghornrunner:
Just flashed this and am seriously impressed with the overall package of features. Being able to strip what I want out of the ROM without having to use the terminal is fantastic.

It shouldn't be a surprise... but if you blow away the HTC Gallery and install the Google 3D, you will get a FC going directly from the camera to the gallery. The camera doesn't look for (nor really should it) alternative galleries. Don't know if there is a fix for this.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JoeyBones1:
can somoene please update the pulldown toggles to work with the newer clockwork mod?!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mikedmeyer:
This ROM hasn't been updated since December. I'm not sure it ever will be. The dev said he's update it whenever a new stock ROM comes out, but it doesn't look like that's going to happen. I'd look elsewhere, if I were you. For example, I used to use this ROM, but switched to CM7. There are lots of others.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmoney:
Bump for the new GB leak, curious if it'll be updated or wait for a more official leak.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] frostincredible:
I saw somewhere that he said most likely when the official stock ROM is released OTA he will update. Don't hold me to it, I'm just going off what I saw.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spence341:
Rmk posted on Twitter that he may have some Inc love in the works.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
FWIW, he is credited as contributing elements of some of the GingerSense Incredible ROM's currently in various stages of alpha and beta releases.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] pkopalek:
MMS Fail

I seem to have no problem with this ROM on my woman's phone, with Cricket PST settings, and a Cricket APN

But my coworker on this ROM, can't send MMS. At all. Maybe a radio? Baseband 2.05.00.06.11? I can't tell. DDMS says bad APN, but his APN is perfect. Here's what happens when trying to send

http://pastebin.com/ewyZH6MF

APNs are 100% stock. I did APN Backup & Restore to check. 100% normal, nothing with [disabled] on it or anything of the like. No other troubles with the phone, whatsoever.

Awkward?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] marcmarshall:
Haven't been on a Sense ROM in a while. Surprised you can't set alarm tone. That said I have been using Alarm Klock for a while. Free app, nice interface, and very loud.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jaykresge:
Make a folder on your SD card called "Alarms." Put whatever tune you want in that folder. It will allow you to use those tunes as an alarm.

Also, if you keep coming back to this, try the ROM in my sig. It's on a newer base (November OTA, whereas Virtuous is based on the October leak, which is missing some things).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] slapmeaty:
Keyboard replacement?

I installed this GB keyboard port: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9636144&postcount=63 and can see it in Settings > Input and Keyboard, but the stock keyboard is what comes up in all apps.

Is there some trick to getting apps to use an alternate keyboard? Or does anyone have a link to a newer/better keyboard that's compatible with this ROM?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] theguitarguy58:
Press and hold where you're going to type.

And input method should pop up.

Select your alternate keyboard from there.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] slapmeaty:
Ah, ha! Worked perfectly. Thank you!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rosedillinger:
Does this ROM support the TV out cable like the stock and Skyraider roms?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
If I remember right, it should since this is basically a tweaked stock ROM.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rosedillinger:
Thank you :) I really miss the stock feeling, but don't want the bloatware and skyraider has been acting up. Plus I like the custumization of the skins :) how would I flash the ex customizer? Just flash it without wiping anything?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rosedillinger:
Lol sorry meant ez customizer

Thanks, that was very kind of you. I already managed to purchase one on ebay awhile back.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ryanmc2033:
So what are the chances of getting a new build of this ROM based on the 2.3.4 build that was leaked a couple days ago?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Scblacksunshine:
Good question, crossing my fingers hoping we'll get an update. Feels like we've been left behind on this ROM....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
As promised, I will update to the new official base. I'll post my progress via Twitter and obviously update the thread here when it's ready.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ryanmc2033:
That's good to hear, thanks.
