Thanks for the great ROM and your constant updates!

Could you clarify the version of the 3D Gallery that is available in Goodies? Currently running 3D Gallery version 1.1.30682-desire and want to know if the version that you've posted is newer or not.

I've been using GPS on and off, and SR 3.0B3 had better charging while using GPS but I still go into the positive and not negative. It's not much, but I get some. I'm not using an OEM charger either, its a virgin mobile one I picked up for 10 bucks at bestbuy. It charges at about the same rate as a USB charge.....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] todd3835:
I had some problems with GPS lock when I went to 2.2. The way I fixed it was to enable Google and Verizon location full time, and standalone when needed. Lock is almost instantaneous now. 2.1 stock has those enabled by default I believe, and 2.2 does not, that could be your problem.

Flashing over Stock 2.1

I have Stock 2.1, 1.0 Radio and stock hboot. Rooted with Unrevoked 3.1 and currently S-Off. If I wanted to flash this what steps do I need to follow after updating the radio to 2.15? With this also flash the hboot as well?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] derickmc:
Someone needs to make a Vannila ROM based off this leak! I'm waiting for that. Sense isnt all bad, but vanilla just has a fresh feel to it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] derickmc:
I'm no expert, but i believe the 2.15 radio changes the hboot (correct me if im wrong). so all you should need to do is flash the radio, then flash the rom in recovery like any other rom. I'm new to the S-OFF thing, but i dont think it really makes a difference.. again i could be wrong but i dont see a problem with doing it this way.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jasonb1985:
just loaded this up. setting it up right now.

i was using another deodexed 8/26 leak, and today for some reason i ended up in an endless bootloop. not sure if it was a kernel issue, setcpu issue, or a rom issue. only thing i could get to work was to flash a new stock rom.

this seems to be working good so far though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
New version available, 2.1.

Enjoy!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] streetglyden:
This will not update the radio from 2.05 to 2.15 correct? I should do that first?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
That's correct.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Heathsrow:
Question about 2.1

As stated in OP: Moved some stock applications to /data/app, so they can easily be removed. This includes: Adobe Flashplayer, GenieWidget, Gmail, Google Maps, Quickoffice, Google Voice Search, My Verizon and YouTube.

I currently use some if not all of these apps, are they still usable in this ROM?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
Yes, that's the point. They're all enabled/functional but easy to remove via a normal uninstaller if you choose not to use any of them.

I use them too.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] streetglyden:
One other question...

never mind... just had a duh moment. I figured it out.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
Nice

I have absolutely no interest in the ROMs people have been cooking up because, well, they are cooked for THEM (and they ALL seem to be broken in one way or another due to overzealous deletions) ... but I will tell you, I am **VERY** interested in your work here, and am watching this thread with great interest. So far, all of your stated ideas have been wonderful.

"Removed startup "Drooooooid" sound. It was annoying"

good work!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] pmazz850:
Running it now. Seems to run smooth. I'll post back after a while. I did run a 1152 in quadrant with the stock kernel though. Was expecting less. Might throw kings kernel on and see how she runs!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SomeGuyDude:
Following this VERY closely. Anyone hopped from SkyRaider to here that can say what their experience was?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] CykloneFij:
Installed without no probs.

Thank you very much!

But (and dont flame me :)) what is the adb to put that lovely droooid sound back in? :)

Am giving this phone to daughter and she loves the sound on boot.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JeeperDon:
I just loaded this 3 hrs ago after a few days of Skyraider's 2.5.2 and 3.0RC2. All I wanted was this, a clean VZW look with 2.2, but rooted so I can add tethering. SR's are pretty clean, but still tweaked to his liking, which is not mine. I'm content with this, unless 3.21.605.1 turns out to not be the OTA ver and Virt makes another. SR's roms are pretty bug free though. I'm an old WinMo guy who did ROMing with a zillion vers of WM6.5. THAT was a pain, none were bug free, and all had odd choices in build content.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cantare:
OK, no flames...:) I got the mp3 from here

Unzip to your SDK tools folder, then mount /system in recovery and do

adb push android_audio.mp3 /system/customize/resource/VZW_Droid.mp3

Reboot, et voila!

AFAIK, you can use any sound, but the MP3 has to be named VZW_Droid.mp3 to work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmoney:
Why was gmail moved to a different location?

Currently downloading the newest version. If a newer one comes out would it typically need a wipe?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] streetglyden:
Installed looks good so far. 1178 Quadrant.

So this might be a dumb question but home come some of my apps were there some I needed to be reinstalled? I installed this ROM over Skyraider 2.5.2.

Were the ones that were there the ones installed to SD? Also am I missing something... I thought with Froyo you had the option to install Apps to the SD card directly? The only way I see it is going through manage applications and then selecting each one and choose move to SD card. Is there a more efficient way?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cantare:
I never did try SkyRaider (mostly for style/aesthetic reasons), let alone any of the earlier "OTA" leaks, which seemed far too buggy. SR would definitely have been my chosen path if I'd not been more or less content with rooted 2.1 + S-OFF. As of last night I have flashed Virtuous v2.0, and it does seem right up my alley, in that it's stock plus root and minus annoyances.

I do wish I'd waited for v2.1, though. Am now contemplating the advisability of flashing over 2.0 without another data-wipe... :confused:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 762x51:
Is anyone else having a problem with contact pictures not showing up in the messaging apps? They dont show in the stock app or in Handcent. :confused:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Casbah:
Are you using ROM manager to install? I usually do it this way and choose to wipe data and cache and haven't had an issue with Virtuous, Skyraider, CM, or Frankenrom.

Intermittent Problem with Search in People

2.6 with Virtuous Kernel

I'm having an intermittent problem with Search in the People App.

When I open People, press the search button (magnifying glass) and start to type, no letters appear in the top search box. This only happens occasionally.

Anyone else experience this issue?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
Rom Manager not Rebooting

Is anyone else having the problem of Rom Manager not rebooting (and therefore being somewhat not useful)? This includes the registered and unregistered versions. A note would say "Rom Manager has been granted SU privileges" (or something like that), and then there would be no reboot. I am running stock radio, current CWM (flashed and reflashed), stock kernel. Only thing non-stock was Virtuous 2.6.

With the problems I had with 2.6, I went back my nandroid of stock this morning. Out of curiosity I ran Rom Manager (no longer registered; when I uninstalled it processed a refund), clicked reboot into recovery and it immediately did so.

I have no objections to trying this ROM again, but would like to know if anyone else had this problem, since the ROM "extras" are being packaged in a way that requires a working Rom Manager.

Thoughts?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nakk:
Currently I'm running Virtuous 2.6 with the stock kernel.

Question, was wondering if anyone else experienced this...

When I'm playing music (stock music player) and have google maps going as well for gps, when the gps speaks does it stop the music all together or continue after speaking? When I was running on stock 2.1 unrooted and such, the music did continue after speaking directions. I only experienced this issue when rooting, updating radio and going to Virtuous.

I don't know if this is google maps, Virtuous, or something easy I'm just missing.

Any ideas?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wryun:
I found a bug ...

I used the HTC Clock App (the circle clock) to set an alarm this morning. It went off and woke me up, but I could not turn it off. No pop up to snooze or dismiss, I couldn't turn it off by de-selecting the alarm in the app, so I did a battery pull.

I noticed a second clock app (the square clock) which I assume is the Android clock, so I tested it and saw the pop up to snooze or dismiss. It works well!

SO, use the Android Clock App (square clock)!

ON ANOTHER NOTE:

I love this rom!

Last night I installed the Virtuous Kernel, installed the SetCPU and created the Screen Off Profile, and did a "bump charge" using the instructions on post #4 here.

I usually turn off my phone a couple nights a week while it charges.

I am noticing a big difference in performance. The phone is running so smooth, fast, and it overall looks better. I am very stoked on this setup! Now I need to do a system backup so I don't loose this config. LOL

Thank you!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] seanmcd72:
If you have a custom lockscreen, that default alarm clock problem is a known issue. I bet it woke you up though...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wryun:
Yes the HTC Clock App did wake me up, but I could only shut it off by doing a battery pull.

I use Launcher Pro Plus, so I hid the HTC Clock and now only the Android Clock is visible. My test showed Android Clock works better, so I am going to use that from now on.

You make a good point though, I use the rotary dial lock screen with music controls, so I bet you're right. (c:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] WhammyDroid:
What lock screen are you using? If you are not using the stock Sense lock screen, the alarm bug you noticed will be present.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wryun:
I am using the Rotary Dial w/ Music Controls lock screen.

I like the look and performance of the Android Clock App better, so I am sticking with it.

Thanks for the info.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tmellen:
I've not had a single problem with ROM Manager not rebooting. It's rebooted every time I've installed a goodie, or installed a .zip manually by selecting "reboot into recovery". Once my phone is setup after a new rom, I switch over to Quick Reboot, and use it's boot into recovery option on a shortcut. Try that and see if it has the same reboot issue for you?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] OSully:
I actually had the same problem with one particular zip file. I was however able to boot into recovery and install it manually.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
Nope

This was more than 1 zip; as I ultimately just decided to stop trying to flash the update and went straight for the "reboot into recovery" option. That failed as well (or, more accurately, advised of the SU rights, and then did nothing but ultimately pop up a menu discussing failure to reboot). Again, when I returned to stock, that function worked flawlessly.

I don't know if an uninstall/reinstall would have helped since you can't uninstall; so I am not sure what other options there would be.

Ideas?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
Just checked the manifest and it's the same version (v1.1.30682).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
This happens sometimes because of some missing files in datadata. The fix is to uninstall/reinstall Rom Manager.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
Uh Oh

Not possible because it is now cooked in ... RMK40, perhaps you would consider not cooking in ROM MANAGER?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wryun:
I just installed 3D Gallery from the Goodies section and all is well! Thanks for the update. :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chefjayhawk:
boot animation

How do I change the boot animation on this ROM? Not sure what folder the file is under.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Berzerker7:
Just because it's cooked it doesn't mean there aren't supporting files missing. At least try what he recommended.

/system/customize/resource/VZW_bootanimation.zip
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wryun:
Very interesting! I opened this .zip file up and found a bunch of image files. I was expecting a gif, flash or video clip as the animation. I didn't know it was a "slideshow" of images that make up the boot animation. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Studmf:
There is no need, I too have had this issue. Just flash an older version of recovery and then flash back to the current version then try again. Should work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chefjayhawk:
Thank you!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
Looking for a reply hopefully..

for some reason, I am not able to install any Virtuous "goodies" from the rom manager.. it always fails in e-signature verification.. even after I toggle signature verification in recovery. This doesn't happen for any other developer's stuff.. like skyraider etc.. only for virtuous.. don't know why..

Also, I am not able to locate the folder where virtuous rom themes etc. are downloaded.

Where is it under clockwork folder?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jskolm:
/sdcard/clockworkmod/download/www.fourty.net/ftp/public/android/
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Studmf:
See above....

Flash old recovery from ROM Manager then reflash current version. Fixed my issue.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nakk:
Follow up:

I did some searching, if any one else was wondering it's not the rom, it's something in 2.2, a lot of other froyo users on different phones (nexus, evo, etc) are having the same issue. I can't post the link because my account is new, but if you go to google's code section for android, the id is 9569. Happens with Pandora as well.

Who's up for the challenge of fixing this? :p
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
thanks.. I tried to download Virtuous status bar mods.. specificially Location+Alarm+clock+battery.. all it did was download a virtuous.js file under /sdcard/clockworkmod/download/www.fourty.net/ftp/public/android

I thought it would be a zip file that will install in recovery???

Is this functioning the way it should? I mean.. given that the virtuous.js file is NOT installable by itself. ?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Tobi-Saru:
Hi all, I'm having a bit of an issue. I just installed virtuous 2.6, got through setup just fine, but when I go to restore my backups it keeps telling me I have no sd card, I go into settings and it says "Unavailable" for Total space and Available space on my SD Card, and when I try to mount it all it does is tell me its safe to remove the card, any ideas? Was thinking about restoring to an older rom and reinstalling, but not sure if that would help. Any suggestions are appreciated!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] :
Do you have your phone plugged into a third party charger when you're trying this? I plugged my phone into a third party charger using this rom and usb debugging came up. The only issue was it still acted like my SD card was mounted on a computer even when I turned off USB Debugging. In other words, I couldn't use my SD card until I removed the phone from the charger.

Anyone else witness this? I'd love to use this rom, but that issue is a deal breaker for me since I leave my phone on that charger all day at work...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
I know a guy at my work with his EvO phone having the same problem.. the PC does not recognize his SD card when connected thru a third party USB cable.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] :
I noticed it on FrankenRom first and then I switched to this one and saw the same thing. I wound up having to restore to my rooted stock backup just to be able to use my phone again at work. :-/
[Droid Incredible Android Development] todd3835:
My music keeps playing after the gps directions, but I'm playing music via TuneWiki. Maybe try that.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
Yikes

That's fairly rough. If RMK40 removes Rom Manager from being cooked in (and since Virtuous was supposed to be stock with some tweaks, doing that is very consistent with the "charter"), would uninstall and reinstall also work without the need to downgrade/upgrade an otherwise working recovery.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nakk:
Yeah? I'll have to give it a shot! Thanks :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Teksu:
I had this happening to me before, turned out to be doubletwist. it automatically mounts the SD card. if you have that installed get rid of it and see if that helps.

you can turn off usb debuging in (from your home screen)*menu* settings - applications - development - *uncheck* usb debuging
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Studmf:
Rough? It takes literally 20 seconds

Bottom of Rom Manager, selecect "All ClockworkMod Recoveries", Select one, Go to top and flash new one, done, fixed, PROFIT!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] :
So you've had it happen only when plugging in the charger? Or does it happen when you have doubleTwist on the phone when it's not plugged in?

I know I've had doubleTwist on my phone before, but I don't remember if it was when I was testing out FrankenRom or Virtuous. Maybe I'll have to flash both and see if they work correctly without DoubleTwist...

I did turn off USB debugging when the error was coming up and even though the icon went away on the status bar, the SD card was still mounted.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Teksu:
It only happened when plugged in, and only with a 3rd party charger. With the supplied HTC plug this did NOT happen. removing doubletwist resolved the issue for me.

USB debugging shouldn't impact this one way or the other.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] :
Definitely going to try this again then. I stopped using DoubleTwist and went with TuneWiki anyway!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Iamshakes:
Thanks a ton for this.

Finally switched over and i couldn't be happier. The ROM alone is worth a few beers but the functionality that you have added to ROM manager is extra nice.

Really appreciate all the work you've put in and thanks to the other developers that have supported this ROM.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rmk40:
I am not removing ROM Manager. It's serving multiple services which are absolutely consistent with the goal: being able to provide OTA updates of the ROM and all the customization options.

Also, you're jumping to conclusions. You do NOT have to remove a "cooked-in" app to be able to re-install or upgrade that app. You can do it easily with adb on the running OS:

Download this: http://www.fourty.net/ftp/public/android/apps/ROMManager.apk

adb install -r ROMManager.apk

Nothing about an app being located in /system/app makes it non-upgradable or re-installable. As long as the current version and reinstall/new version are signed with the same key, it will succeed.

Insane Battery Life!!

I am getting insane battery life with this ROM and the newest kernel using SetCPU. I havent been plugged in for 8 1/2 hours and I'm at 87%. Minus the initial 5% drop that happens immediately when unplugged... I'm averaging less than 1% an hour. I am using SystemPanel to monitor and graph this and will post a screen shot. At this rate i should be able to hit 3 days... :) I will keep you posted.

Edit: Here is a screen shot. Notice from 6am-2pm there was no charging. I am going to recharge and start from fresh... then Ill see how long this battery will last.

Edit 2: 4 hours up... 3 hours awake time. This is heavy use. I've been browsing the web and using apps for 3 hours total out of 4. Still at 80%
[Droid Incredible Android Development] texanaustinite:
What's your 'awake' time? What battery? Are you a 'light', 'moderate' or 'heavy' user?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cortland1998:
Typically I'm a heavy user. However, this was a light to moderate use. Once fully charged ill test it and provide screen shots of up times, etc.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] texanaustinite:
I can drop to 87% in an half-hour of web surfing. Think I'll reinstall System Panel and do a little plotting myself. Thanks for the screenshot.

edit: might try one of the custom kernels instead of KiNgx...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] itisjustme:
In setcpu I am running my scaling at conservative and I am only running only one profile for screen off with perflock removed. What are others doing for profiles and settings for battery conservation without taking a heavy performance hit?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mt15:
Crapy Battery Life Any Suggestions

I am currently running Virtous V2.6 and have a few questions about battery life. I currently am at 35% battery with 12:14 up and only 1:07 awake...battery use is 41% cell standby 38% phone idle and 16% android system only 5% display. I am currently running king klicks CFS #1 kernel and before I was using the BFS #1. I switched to CFS #1 hopping for better battery life. I am happy with the amount of battery being used while the phone is sleeping (only loosing 1% every 50 minutes) but when I am browsing it is just eating up the battery life. Almost a 1% a minute. I am using set cpu and have it at 1.075 ghz max and 245 min scaling on demand and I slow down processor when the screen is off o 245 min and 384 max. I also scale battery down at 50 and 25%. My main questions is what am I doing wrong that I eat so much battery while browsing and just using the phone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] blayz77:
im sure most of you know this already, but for those doing the plotting on battery life might want to consider this.

i noticed that my phone also would drop to about 94% after unplugging, i thought this was due to how the mods functioned or the roms. then i learned in order to get your phone to fully charge you have to turn it off once its fully charged, then it will charge for like 30 more minutes.

ive read its a known issue with the Dinc's

so today im bump charging it i think they called it where i drained my battery to 1% then im going to charge to green then turn off and charge to green again. they say that doing this a few times will remap how the battery drains or something.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kriskmk:
do you know why signature verification would fail when I try installing any of your goodies thru rom manager?
