*****in...

I'm flashing now! I wish I could gather all the best productivity apps together in one bloat removed rom that looks like yours. This is amazing. I use my Inc everyday for work+personal. Truly in debt, will donate.

Astrid tasks and Touchdown have been my best friend, can you think of any other apps for business use?

You're bad bro. Just bad.

Word
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jumbotron:
Last question...would it screw up framework if I attempted to flash Burst Alpha Star?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Nothing else jumps out at me. There is one that is great with exchange e-mail, tasks, and contacts but it is not free

As long as Astrid and Touchdown are available in the Market you can install it once and when I produce new releases they should not go away.

I am not familiar with Alpha Star but you could do an nand backup and try it. Worst case you restore.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jprow507:
Just installed this and LOVE it! Great job Nils'!

One issue that I notice which hopefully you can fix in the next release ... when you choose the phone icon from the launcher it pulls up all people with numbers like standard Sense (including ALL FB contacts) ...... I came from Uncommon Sense and when you choose the phone icon on that ROM (same launcher) it pulls up ONLY the contacts from the "people" shortcut which is MUCH better IMO ....

Do you think this is something that can be fixed?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I will get a look at this and see if maybe it is just a setting in "people"
[Droid Incredible Android Development] velopirate:
Nils, I am trying to install your full ROM, but I got stuck in a boot loop at the Droid eye. I did a complete wipe and also wiped Dalvic cache. Any suggestions? I am using the kernel that is in the ROM.

Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
How long did you wait at the Droid eye? The first time through after a wipe takes a long time.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] velopirate:
It doesn't get hung. I just keeps rebooting...3,4,5 times until I finally pull the battery.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Weird. Try installing it over the regular 1.4 ROM without wiping and see what happens. I will have to check it out but I installed it both ways with no trouble.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] velopirate:
I'll try that. Downloading 1.4 now... Thanks for the quick replies!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I just did a full wipe install of the full version with no trouble. maybe you can try downloading it again.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scope666:
If you hit MENU --> VIEW you can choose which folders you want to see in People. (Facebook is probably checked right now)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] velopirate:
Nils, I am still caught in a boot loop. My Incredible reboots after the "dots" go to the right side of the Droid eye the second time. It sits there for about 40 seconds and then restarts.

Mike
[Droid Incredible Android Development] velopirate:
I did download again (great minds think alike), but I'm still having the boot loop issue. For some reason, I can't get this ROM to load now. I did a wipe/factory reset, a cache wipe, and a wipe of the Dalvic cache.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
That is so strange. I assume your on the latest radio.

I am re-uploading it just incase it is corrupt. Let you know when it is there.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] velopirate:
Nils, I was running 2.15.00.07.28. I just installed 2.15.00.09.01. Unfortunately, the boot loops are continuing.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
A fresh version is up there if you are feeling adventurous

I am on 2.15.00.07.28. I wonder if the new radio is a problem. Will have to update and try it. Maybe not since it sounds like you tried it on both.

I assume v1.4 is OK?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] velopirate:
Nope...I also got stuck in a bootloop on 1.4. I don't think it's the radio. It's got to be something else. I didn't update the radio until you suggested doing that. I'm downloading the new version of your ROM now. Also, could you break out the kernel as a .zip so I can try reflashing the kernel if this keeps up? Thanks again.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Since this seems to be OK for everyone I have no idea what is going on.

This is a stretch but how new is the phone and what type of screen does it have? Look at the hardware rev and let me know what it is.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] velopirate:
It's one of the original Incredibles with the AMOLED screen. Don't sweat it, Nils. I'll just keep following the post. Others, feel free to chime in if you can think of anything else to wipe on my phone. :D Nils, I seriously appreciate your responsiveness. Hopefully I'll figure out what's going on.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] velopirate:
Nils, I figured it out. For some reason, my phone does not like the included kernel. I flashed a different kernel and your ROM booted right up without any issues. I love your work, so I'm glad to be back on board with Business Sense. Thank you for all of your patient replies.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jiggadroid:
Fresh version of the ROM? I downloaded 2 days ago.. did an update post since.. Running 1.4.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Well, I guess that means there is a hardware level out there that is problematic with HTC's latest kernel and you got it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
It was just a exact/fresh replacement for the Full ROM since he was having trouble with the flash. Not a change.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Nils, I'm liking this rom! The only thing I'm missing, since I downloaded your version and not the "full" version, is the HTC news widget for checking in on Android Central news. I tried installing it manually but it still doesn't show up in widgets. I may just flash over the full rom and remove the bloat manually.

Great work!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
That's a good thought. That is why I built the full version.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stoney 666:
i just installed the blue bat with animation, and the battery isn't blue... still looks cool, but was expecting a blue one. wondering if the zip without the animation is also NOT blue....

edit: tried the file without animation and no dice... not blue.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scope666:
It's blue when you're over 80 ;-)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Is this not the battery you see?

If I picked the wrong blue one point me to the right one. The one I used has blue when the charge is high but different colors as it drains.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stoney 666:
I'll charge up and check... sorry guys, I thought it was blue till it got low. I was at 60 when I installed.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Alright Nils, I'm loving your rom. The more I use it the more I'm ok with switching back to sense. I don't think my battery was full when I installed this, but I have 21hrs uptime, 4 hours awake time and 51% battery left. I'm going to do a bump charge and see what I get, after I'm done tinkering.

I love the clock widget with the flip (the new one), but I just cringe about giving it so much of my real estate. Thinking about putting my "beautiful smaller home and weather" one on, but yours looks soooo good that it's a hard decision. Why do you do me like this? :) I think I'm going to switch to the circle blue meter, too.

Thanks for sharing this with us!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Hey, that's a nice looking ROM you got there. :D

Good report on the battery. Mine is doing pretty good also.

Enjoy
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jumbotron:
Anybody else's car charger not charging the phone? Regular AC was fine last night...help? Got a three hr drive @22% batt life.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jumbotron:
What widget is that? Shows your battery percent and uptime? That's sick. BTW, OP...still can't get car charger to charge it. But I still luv this ROM.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
The battery widget is battstat the uptime widget is the update widget. Both are free in the market (market's having issues right now). It may be your car charger. If your phone charges off A/C then it's fine.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbh00jh:
I really enjoy using this Rom . I have this rom and the Liquid Sense rom on my sd card and I restore back and forth between the two. I do seem to use this one the most during the day. It's a great rom and I want to thank you for your great work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Great. I am glad you like it. Enjoy..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jumbotron:
Yeah, I figured...I flashed my recovery and it still doesn't charge. I turned it off and am headed to the VZW store to exchange it.

Good look on the widgets bro. BTW my corp email is on lockdown and they won't let us have activesync exchange unless it's a company assett...meaning it has to be a Blackberry.

So I use touchdown nitrodesk 2xx. You know of an app that can pull gmail and Outlook 2003 besides the that one? I travel for work and use it all the time, so I'm always on the lookout for good productivity/business apps like astrid tasks or anything to help me out with my mobile office.

Let me know if know of anything...I have the same setup as you 2.15.00.7.28 radio and 0.92 hboot, s-off. Looking for a good kernel too, was told staying close to stock is best but I've used adrynalyne and kk bfs#5 before too.

Word
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Glad I could help. Try K9 for your exchange mail. It will use your OWA to connect. I'm too in love with active sync. I use the stock Android mail client because of the Integrated inbox. As far as the kernels go, the battery life on this one is great, charging time is great and it hasn't gotten sluggish on me once. After playing with a LOT of kernels, those things are more important to me than benchmark scores.

I hope that helps!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jumbotron:
Word! They gave me a new car charger w/ a usb adapter built in. Then the guy wanted me to root his DInc! LOL, he dug my Business Sense. BTW, I'm sticking to TD email, K9 didn't like my exchange acct.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lennie paz:
Can anyone recommend which radio works best with this Rom, is it 2.15.00.07.28 or 2.15.00.09.01 ?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jumbotron:
2.15.00.7.28 here...works great.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
That's funny. Just goes to show that most techs don't care if a phone is rooted or modded when providing warranted work
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
LOL! I'm glad they fixed you up!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbh00jh:
Have tried both and I like 2.15.00.07.28 . :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Since it appears to work well with my ROM I am sticking with it.

I am interested in any feedback with the latest one on my ROM.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] velopirate:
I'm using 2.15.00.09.01. No problems at all.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbh00jh:
Seems like 07.28 is easier on my batt.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I update to the 1.5 version of both the primary and full/complete ROM's.

See change log in post 2 for details.

NOTE: I know, I jumped a few versions with the full/complete ROM but I did that so everyone would realize it was the full/complete leaked ROM with everything in it from the factory plus all of my mods that are in the primary 1.5 ROM. The bottom line is you get everything with the same look and feel as my primary ROM.

Enjoy.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scope666:
I did find one bug that's been present in other stock based roms. It doesn't draw button graphics around buttons on web pages. Another easy place to see this is in Gmail, when you have an email that has the button "Show Pictures" you only see the text, not the button around it.

I know Virtuous had this problem, not sure if he ever found the culprit.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I never noticed that. An example is the > next to the thread list last post in this forum on the PC it has a button frame around it but on the phone it does not. I wonder if there is a button graphic missing in either Google or HTC framework. Hmmmm, I may never sleep again until I figure this out.:D

EDIT: I just tried it with Opera and it is the same so they must be looking for something in the framework.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jiggadroid:
Really weird, but does anyone else have a problem with downloading this on their phone? I'm going through the xda app, clicking the link from the OP and then waiting for the timer to count down. When I click to download it only downloads like 5,000 kb then says it's done, which obviously isn't right. Not a big deal, but really don't wanna wait to get home from work and could use a distraction at the office!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jumbotron:
Does the mobile YouTube bug persist on all stock ports? App works fine.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I am not familiar with that bug. It seems to work fine on this ROM unless I don't know what to look for.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jumbotron:
Having trouble with the search feature, but do you need to do a full data/cache wipe upgrading from v1.4 to v.1.5? Or can you just flash over?

Thx bro
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Just flash over and you are good to go
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Got the same result after 80k so tried it from the PC and it did fine. I then tried it with Opera Mini and got 0 download after 10 minutes. Hopefully it is a problem with 4shared.

EDIT: Downloading fine on WiFi so it may be something with VZW network and not the browser.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbh00jh:
I had the same problem downloading with the phone , using WI-FI. :(
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scope666:
Yeah, I think it's a framework issue. Maybe you can hit up one of the Virtuous or SkyRaider devs as I believe they have the problem in their roms too.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Been through the framework and nothing obvious jumps out. Will follow the other developers to see progress.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lennie paz:
Anyone using SetCPU with this ROM, if so, what settings?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mrchambo:
998 max, 245 min. Screen off 384/245

jc
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jumbotron:
Was on stock uptime 45 hrs, went to switch to stock kybd and it rebooted, so switched to KK bfs#5, setcpu 1.115/245 conservative, S/O 245/245 powersave, Charging (any) 1.115/245 performance.

Anyone got a blue/black HTC_IME_MOD.apk out there to match the Bus. Sense?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mrchambo:
let us know how it goes with kk#5?

tia,

jc
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Before I post another version I wanted to see if there is any interest in these theme changes.

1) New clock

2) Matching Rosie

3) Matching black dialer

4) Matching black keyboard (Semi)

5) Matching popups

6) Matching loading popep

7) Matching buttons (not new)

8) Matching lock screen (not new)

9) More color notifications
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jumbotron:
What stats should I keep track of?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I detect a severe lack of interest in this theme so I will abandon it (except for me) and move on to something else
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lennie paz:
I really like this ROM but I am having a strange problem with it. Every morning when I turn my phone on, the only thing I get is a black screen after the phone boots up. I have to start pushing random buttons to get the screen to come on. I did wipe the phone when I installed the ROM and I have used many other ROMs and never had this problem. I am using my own wallpaper along with LauncherPro so maybe that has something to do with it?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lennie paz:
I think he would just like to know how the battery life is and how smooth the phone runs with it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Try running it for a day or two without LP and let me know how it does. I don't think the wallpaper would have anything to do with it.

Also, think about what apps you have installed and just install them one by one to see how it does. If your apps are from a backup it could be carrying over something that causes conflicts.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbh00jh:
I have my own wallpaper and have had no problems , could be launcher pro. I don't have launcher pro so I don't know about that.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jumbotron:
Battery life is not as good by marginal amt, but I do have it oc'd @1.115 but find silky smooth and snappy with spare parts...and surprised I like using Visual Task Mgr from Verizon tab in the Mkt. Helps me shut down bckgrd tasks w/ home button default. Uptime 40+ hrs.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jiggadroid:
I really like the theme the colors look real cool.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Do you like the dialer and keyboard?

I still want to change the button on the keyboard to match the dialer.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jiggadroid:
Yeah I like them both a lot definitely better than the stock imo
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
I like the black dialer. Time to install your latest update.

Thanks again!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I will upload a new version with the keyboard and dialer later today.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Awesome. I thought it was in this version. I'll wait patiently.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbh00jh:
Will we need to wipe ?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Hey Nils, I just flashed the v1.5 full rom and I still don't have the option to add the HTC News widget. :( Any ideas?

EDIT: However, the news app is in my app drawer, just can't add the widget. I'll see if I can figure out what I'm missing.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Nope, I try to avoid that if at all possible
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I am just flashing the V2 full version so I will take a look at it.

EDIT: I just checked and everything from the original is in there. My guess is they either eliminated it or there is a bug in the widget. I see the news and weather widget but just no standalone news. I will tinker with prior versions.

EDIT 2: It looks like what they did was combined it to the News and Weather widget and let you configure them individually. Check that out and see if it works for you.

By the way, I tried the prior version of the news widget and got the same results.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Thank you!

EDIT: I got it working by pushing the com.htc.NewsReaderWidget.apk from Myn's rom and rebooting. The included one is 260KB while his is 313KB. I have attached it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
OK, I cooked this version in and see no difference.

When you go to put the widget on the screen are you seeing 2 widgets? One for Just news and one for News and Weather.

When I select the news and weather widget it gives me a choice of news, weather or news and weather. If I select just news it then lets me configure it just like the old version with selected feeds etc.

Either way I am uploading both the full and reduced version now and will post links to them later.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Before I pushed that one, I only saw News and Weather (Android). After pushing and rebooting (didn't show up til I did), I see 2; News and Weather (Android) and News (HTC). That's the one I love to use to keep up with Android Central feed, Droid life, etc.
[HD2 General] kkeller416:
so

i currently have the slide 3g that in theory i would really like to sell and pick up a newer vibrant or g2 but in reality i dont think anyone is gonna buy it

so i am left with a opportunity to trade for a hd2, but i am having my doubts

i know it can do both android and wm but it seems to have alot more quirky issues and i see alot of these phones for sale on craigslist.

so if the slide is updated as promised to 2.2 with sense, what would be other reasons to swap phones?????
[HD2 General] kkeller416:
sorry didnt mean to post this i was tryong to read similar threads!
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
Well the HD2 is much more powerful than the slide as far as specs are concerned, likewise the builds of Android it runs run much better than they do on the Slide. The HD2 has a bigger, higher resolution screen. And it runs WinMo.
[HD2 General] gaarry:
I personally had the HD2, and once I switched over to the G2 I was amazed at what I missed out on. If you want hella features, keep the slide. If you want... a big screen.. Get the HD2 (or a Vibrant).
[HD2 General] kkeller416:
what exactly are hella features

i thought since it would run froyo i would have access to the market and all programs that can run on android devices?
[HD2 General] crisisinthecity:
You would have access to everything your Android phone will do. You just have to find an Android build that works well for you. They aren't perfect yet, although it sounds like some are pretty close. Even cooler you can dual boot WinMo or Android... Best of both worlds really. Can't dual boot another OS on an Android phone, as far as I know...
[HD2 General] gaarry:
I'm not trying to bash WinMo as I did like it, but what exactly does WinMo have on Android? Please enlighten me.
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
WinMo has, in my opinion, ease of expandability. IE, EVERYTHING about WinMo can be tweaked, moved, removed, or just plain changed in some way, all right out of the box, no convolutated(or in the case of the G2, temporary) rooting process required. WinMo has a better corporate install base of course. WinMo being a derivative of Windows of course, makes it so that alot of Windows programs have a WinMo port, the best of which being emulators. The emulator scene on WinMo is just phenominal. Give me time, i've got more.
[HD2 General] kkeller416:
the only short experience with windows mobile was with a tmobile Dash

and in my opinion was horrible as well as very difficult to navigate and deal with. however that may have been a earlier version of that software.

android seems to have the capability of being "tweaked, moved, removed, or just plain changed in some was," just like wm software just a bit different i guess it comes down to how much time you want to learn a new thing.
[HD2 General] kkeller416:
i just want to make sure that the andriod phone i have now can be duplicated in the hd2 phone, and im not loosing out on the features i have now such as sense and andriod market and some of the google apps
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
For the most part yeah, you will be getting if not the same experience running Android on the HD2 that you would on the slide, but prolly a better one because of the superior hardware. Most if not all Android builds for the HD2 feature the Market and Google apps built in.
[HD2 General] crisisinthecity:
Did I say that it had something on Android? I was saying that it can run Android and access the market, etc. Plus you can dual boot it with WinMo.

WinMo with Sense and CHT is pretty awesome in my opinion... More dumb apps or games would be the only thing that I can even think of that Android has over WinMo. I'm not really into games and stupid apps that I don't need. My HD2 does everything that I need it to do.

WinMo is super solid for business and everyday use. Having that with an Android dual boot is even better... Best of both worlds is better than only having an Android option IMHO. I'm into nerding out, so I find WinMo satisfies my geekyness. Flashing ROM's, Radios and doing tweaks are fun.
