Questions

See post #2 of this thread

Lou's #8 - better stability overall, much better battery life, tailored specifically for Sense and it's demands to keep large chunks of memory free to run it.

Chad's - apps load and run faster, but bottlenecks cause Sense to slow a little, less concern for battery as governor is slow to reduce cpu frequency.

But really, it all depends how you use your phone. I run lots of HTC widgets and make full use of Sense's many features, so that's where my POV is coming from.

I can't for the life of me remember where I got this from, maybe Nils or Wes, but here is the dialer I'm using:

(If anybody recognizes this dialer or the zip name, please pm me so I can update this post with due credit to the author)

EDIT: Got the dialer from Nil's Business Sense. Thanks NilsP!

Download the dialer mod from my box here:

How are you preparing your phone before flashing?

Are you wiping data, cache and dalvik at least three times before flashing just the nightly zip? Are you running an actual MD5 check after you download the zip?

If you aren't doing both of those at the very least, try them, and then repost here.

If you are doing those steps, at what point exactly are you getting the force closes? Your post says "upon initial reboot", so I assume this happens right after the Warm twopointtwo boot animation ends? Or is it after you go through set up?

Maybe it's just me, but why would you use a Z Rom that optimizes Sense, and then not use it? So to answer your question, I use the stock, although slightly modified (5 column app drawer, Dusk skin)

I am able to download attachments. I use Hotmail, Yahoo, and Exchange through HTC Mail. Make sure you check your settings (Menu/Settings/Accounts & sync/Exchange/Account settings/Include File Attachment - Always

EDIT: Original question was from post #3171 "Ok how do I change the read of my SD card...sorry I'm a noob."

Or you could just download the free app "SD Speed Increase" from the market. (requires root)

I love "Root System Font Installer" from the market. Not free, but very easy to use and well worth the money.

Not sure what you mean by "slow to connect on Wifi....from screen lock" The phone should not disconnect from the network just because your screen is off.

You could reflash the ROM, or you could take the link in the 2nd post of this thread "tommytomatoe's Warm TwoPointTwo and Z themes and mods" which will lead you here:

Scroll down in the first post and you'll find this mod " Revert Back to PowerWidgets Notification Bar"

No, deodexed.

Please remember to use the "thanks"!

Much love my friends

I think most of us chose a ROM like this because of the Sense UI.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] douger1957:
I've had my best luck with Lou's kernels for both this ROM and Myn's. My number one concern is battery life, even though I got Big Bertha, and Lou's is the **** for me.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] renzo.olivares:
ok i have an issue i uninstalled led flow and installed led me know beta but now when i get a notification it won't stop blinking until i open the app and close it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] k_nivesout:
I always had pretty good luck with the app blink for led notifications on z roms.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] renzo.olivares:
yea me to never had an issue with blink i guess ill just download it and see how it does.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] k_nivesout:
The only thing its missing is notifications for email but if I remember right the led would blink for emails on warm z, just not for SMS..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] renzo.olivares:
i wonder why that is..... time to go back to my trusty suberblink
[Droid Incredible Android Development] k_nivesout:
I wondered about that too, I just figured it was a z rom thing, maybe the devs would know.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RyanTX:
I'm not even sure why you would need an led program. I removed the included one and called it good. All my led notifications work just fine.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] renzo.olivares:
really how is that?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
This may sound crazy, but i didnt even notice led my first 9 months. Pretty sure i dont need it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] renzo.olivares:
Lol me either but now that people have mentioned it i've noticed et more lol.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
The phone is always within reach, so i just check it anyways
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MajikUF:
Is there a version of Verizon Backup Assistant that works with this yet? It seems to have a lot less to "fix" when it restores as opposed to a gmail contact sync.

Maj
[Droid Incredible Android Development] renzo.olivares:
I don't think it works with any rom. I remeber seeing a warning about not touching verizon backup after your root unless you want a paper weight.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MajikUF:
Yah, I just figured it was a sense thing and I was hoping that maybe the version that came with the Thunderbolt was a fix. (assuming it has one)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] newsky4:
Guys Im having fun with this rom but there is on little problem with incoming calls when you are on the other line a have try almost everything to make it work but no luck, if a call comes in iut can be answered but can not switch back to other call and if you press finish this call it will freeze the other call and wont let you end the call you have to reset the phone so the phone icon goes away very strange any one
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cornjo:
Yeah I had this problem too. I have been waiting to see if Inc. of Nils have any input. In the mean time enjoy the speed of 2.0- and just grin..lol. There are so many other great things about this ROM.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] newsky4:
had or still have this problem
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Solar257:
I've used search to look through this thread (found a link to a non-skined version of the market app) and I have two things that I've noticed.

First, the wi-fi hotspot-- Since EPST looks different in this ROM, is it set to have an edited DUN NAI from the stock Verizon dialup settings that are seen in stock ROM EPST (or this thread)?

Second, Connected Media-- Does it work? I have a DLNA TV and Windows 7 PC's they're able to see each other on our network and I cannot get my phone to do the same.

The No-GPS reticle notification bar mod doesn't work withe the 4/24 nightly. I remember reading that these things would be taken care of. I just wanted to point it out as it sent me in an infinite boot loop that required a battery pull and reinstall to fix.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] renzo.olivares:
for the connected media did you flash a new kernel? The new kernel could break tv-out since most aren't built with it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Solar257:
Still the same Kernel (Lou's #4) and not TV out per-se... I thought the Connected Media was DLNA wi-fi streaming. Am I incorrect in that assumption?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] renzo.olivares:
oh yea that feature is in sense 2.0 but i am not sure if it is broken or not and i think lous kernel breaks tv-out since it was made a while back not when sense 2.0 roms were out.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] xxxdc5:
I have this problem where I played my music too loud and blew my speaker.

Can someone patch this in the next nightly? thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] renzo.olivares:
A blown speaker can't be fixed with a patch? you either replace the speaker or you really didn't blow your speakers and it can be fixed. Can you explain more?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MicroMod777:
I don't see Sprint's or Verizon's visual voice mail in the ROM files. Is it in the latest version?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] renzo.olivares:
yea theres verizon visual voice mail
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Caligirl2828:
Really love this rom! Testing out Nightly 4/23...only issue I have come across is today, while using my camera none of the pictures I took saved! I had it saving to phone storage, and yesterday it was working fine, all pix and video saved to phone storage, but for some reason it didn't want to save anything today. Kind of weird, because the camera took the pictures even showed the review of the pix with the option to share the pic, but when I went to gallery nothing was there. Used root explorer and couldn't find any of todays pix. Switched the storage to save to SD, seems to be working fine now. I should add...I rebooted the phone a few times, and pix still did not save to phone storage. Strange. Overall great rom though! :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] renzo.olivares:
Yea i've noticed that lou's kernel #8 doesn't save pictures and it doesn't play emmc music or allow you to view pics saved on emmc.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Ziggy' 3/12 and 3/18 and the latest senses kernel from Chad work fine.

Any kernel based off the latest stock kernel don't work for saving pics to phone storage.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jprow507:
This exact thing happened to me ... I thought I was losing my mind LOL. Strange that Lou's kernel could affect this ...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RyanTX:
My phone just shut off earlier. I set it down while it was sending a Gmail message with an attachment and I came back to check on it and the phone was completely turned off. Had to take the battery out and put it back in before it would turn back on....

Im on 4/23 with Lou's 8.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] azgoofball:
I just had that same issue yesterday after a reboot. I never caught it till now.. I guess Im going back to Ziggy,,
[Droid Incredible Android Development] whojabacod:
Anyone have ziggys latest bfs and good son file to share?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] stopthebus:
According to Chad's post, the lastest one have graphical issue on Sense. Did you notice any issue?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] incubus26jc:
yes, unfortunaltey lou's kernels do cause a problem with internal storage. I took pictures all day yesterday of my kids for easter and none of them saved :(

I will move back to ziggy's kernel tonight in the nightly unless lou can provide a fix for me.

Sorry guys. I did not know this was an issue.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RyanTX:
I use Lou's kernel and I took some pictures this morning and they all saved just fine.

I am looking for Ziggy's kernel, I went to his website, which one do I get? There's a ton of them.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] USSENTERNCC1701E:
I found a temp fix that worked for me, download and save a picture from an MMS, the camera should save pictures after that until the next reboot.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] azgoofball:
No worries, I guess we all didn't know :D As I said last week, Ziggy and Lou's were running the same. The one isssue I saw with Ziggy was the ghost calls when you're on the phone with someone. I'd rather have that than my pics not being saved. :eek:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MicroMod777:
What happened then to Sprint's Visual Voice Mail that it says on the first post that this ROM is suppose to have?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] USSENTERNCC1701E:
Probably the same thing that happened to the rest of the EVO features...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Logiic:
I've only taken one picture since switching to Lou's and I figured it didn't save because for some reason somewhere I forgot to hit a button. Glad to know it's a kernel issue but also unfortunate in that WarmZ runs so much more smoothly on my phone with Lou's Kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Calakato:
All my pictures of the kids yesterday saved just fine for me. Maybe it's because I have them save to the sd card instead of the phone?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] osurferx:
I'm running the 3/23 and loving it. The only issue I'm having is random freezes where the phone won't start when you hit the power button. Have to either pull the battery or hold power down for a few seconds and it reboots.

I've read about 2 weeks worth of posts and I saw the complaints, but no real solution. Is the solution to try different kernels? Which one? Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] newsky4:
mi pics save fine and im using lous
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rboddy:
I save mine to my card as well, they're such small file sizes I don't know why anyone wouldn't save to the card. Good to know Lou's is the reason MixZing can't read from EMMC though, or at least probably the reason. I put all my music files on my SD card a few weeks ago so no biggie there.

I'm still gonna go out on a limb here and say this is hands down the BEST rom for the Incredible out there. I don't know why anyone would run anything else.

Social Jogger

Nice Program extracted from Acer Iconia Tab Series..

Social Jogger

Thanks ericssonka

​
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dosiris:
Acer Iconia Tab Series? I just get one in win version (w500).

The quality is pretty good and I installed Office 2010, Acrobat, Matlab, Photoshop and LaTeX on it. So now I don't need to carry a NB but a tab.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] papasmurph:
Alright this is driving me mad! I'm running the 4/23 nightly and thing are running nicely...BUT the notification led will not stop blinking. I've tries every setting, nothing. Somethimes it will stop when I oken an app, but then it starts back up again. Argh!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sruel3216:
uninstall that app and put on "led me know"
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Logiic:
This is a known issue in 4/23. Incubus is working on a fix. I'm still running 4/20 with no major problems other than the occasional random reboot. I've had that on every nightly I've tried so far though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dosiris:
Uninstall light flow then the LED stops blinking :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] k_nivesout:
Yeah that light flow app blows, I've just used blink to get the led working right on z roms.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thabroncs:
Nice app thx
[Droid Incredible Android Development] greenro89:
just flashed latest nightly and have no wifi.. search is currently not working so can anyone give me a tip?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RyanTX:
I really have no issues with led notifications and I uninstalled light flow. I've never had led issues.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] xxxdc5:
LOL I was just kidding man hahah
[Droid Incredible Android Development] papasmurph:
ahh.... thanks for all of the responses...sanity restored!

:p
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RyanTX:
I had to restore my backup of CM7 because Warm Z shut off randomly again. Not sure what the deal is.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ljmunz:
Finally got my 10 posts and can reply in this thread :p

First off just want to say this ROM is really great, much thanks!

I have a small annoyance, was wondering if you could help me out. The date on the lockscreen is below the bar that you pull down to unlock. Is this normal? Anyway to fix this or if not can I load the default lockscreen?

Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rboddy:
Install Root Explorer, go to /system/apps and change the name of HTCLockScreen.apk to HTCLockScreen.bak, reboot the phone, and you'll have the Sense 2.0 version of the vanilla lock screen.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ljmunz:
Great, thanks!

Is that what the lockscreen is supposed to look like with this ROM?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jpc0480:
Can you post a screen shot? I would like to see the different lock screen.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ljmunz:
Attached a screenshot a few posts up, #3347

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13225045&postcount=3347
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JWhetstone02:
I was kind of annoyed by the date touching the lock screen bar myself too. I flashed the stock fonts and that fixed the issue for me.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ljmunz:
Ah, that makes sense, I flashed the Coconut font. So by stock do you mean the default font with the ROM? Because that was a little too thin and difficult to read for me.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JWhetstone02:
The ones in the OP... Stock Fonts - DOWNLOAD Those are ideal for me, always worth a try. Thicker and not as thin as the ones with the ROM
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ljmunz:
Missed that, thanks. Flashed the stock font and that did nudge the date below the lock bar but not sure how much I want to go back to the stock android font, even with the misaligned text on the lockscreen :)

Perhaps I'll go back to Coconut and go to the stock lockscreen. Any nice replacement Sense lockscreens that would mesh well with this ROM?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JWhetstone02:
Well I used the Incredibly Re-Engineered ROMs a while back and they had interchangable lockscreens. I wonder if they are compatible with this, being as it has 're-engineered' in the title.

The lock screens can be found here if you want to give it a try.

**I do know if you use the vanilla lockscreen, you will have problems getting your alarm to turn off if you use the sense clock. It was said you needed the vanilla clock to go with it. Not too sure on the details but it was something along those lines.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] xxxdc5:
I'm on 4/1 and my phone gets a little buggy sometimes

I've noticed it slows down really bad while it's being charged, RIGHT as it's reached full charge

not sure if these go together or not but it's pretty consistent
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Logiic:
I just got on to post about the same issue (took me a couple tries to get the app open without the phone rebooting too). I mentioned a few days ago that the longer I run any given nightly, the more buggy it gets.

I am going to have to flash/restore a different ROM tonight myself. My phone has randomly rebooted itself 4 times TODAY that I have seen and 2 of them have been within the last half hour.

Also, whenever I leave ANY app now, my phone immediately goes to the black warm z screen and then spends about 60s "loading" before I can even use or access anything!

Is anyone else having these issues or know of a fix for these issues? I really don't want to leave this ROM but at least temporarily I do not have any other choice.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] osurferx:
Same problem on my inc. I've been running the 4/23 and used to get random freezes that required a battery pull. I changed kernels to incredikernel, and now I'm getting random reboots. Love the ROM, probably my favorite by far, but its also a phone...

Problem is those taking about switching to CM 7, that Rom has its own problems. Known bugs with FCs on various apps like Facebook.

Not to say I don't appreciate the DEVs hard work, I do. Really don't mean to be complaining. It's funny, once I started flashing Roms I can't stop...

Again love the Rom, don't love the reboots. Flashed clean BTW, though I did restore Apps with Titanium, could that be the issue?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] renzo.olivares:
apps and data? or just apps?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Newt:
Are you guys flashing multitouch kernels? It sounds like a kernel problem to me
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jprow507:
I've had a few reboots here and there and some general laginess at times. I flashed Lous #8 kernel and things improved a lot, but pics couldn't be saved to internal storage. I haven't tried Chad's kernel with this ROM (I got random reboots with Chad's and SR3.5). Has anyone tried flashing the stock Sense kernel? Maybe the reboots and freezes would go away or at least decrease in occurance...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] osurferx:
Restored Aps and app data. I don't bother backing up system data since I seem to swap roms weekly :)

The incredikernel I used is the older one for Sense... The phone was freezing 3-4 times per day with the stock kernel that came with the rom. The reboots aren't as bad, happened once today. Also froze while using the camera. Had to pull the battery.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] renzo.olivares:
Don't restore apps data... i'd say thats your problem.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Newt:
Here guys try this kernel its one of my favorites I bet it will solve your problems

http://db.tt/UUupd2O
[Droid Incredible Android Development] osurferx:
Think so? I'd think app data would cause FCs not random reboots while its sitting on the desk untouched. Problem with not restoring data is setting up various apps like touchdown and losing progress in games, etc. Maybe I should be more selective, probably 90% of my apps I don't really care about the data. But that 10 % adds ~1 hour of extra setup to every flash.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] i5aac:
For what its worth...i am on the 4/16 release and have had no issues. Stock kernal, stock speed...no reboots, decent battery life though. This rom is great!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] osurferx:
Hmm, not saying you're not a trustworthy guy, but any kernel with the word "test" in the name does not inspire confidence. :-)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] newsky4:
what is so nice about this rom and is it overclock how about gps and wifi, multi touch give me some info so i can flash it
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Newt:
well thats all up to you bud but i wouldnt recomend it if i didnt know for a fact it is solid
[Droid Incredible Android Development] osurferx:
:-) just giving you a hard time. Just,flashed it, I'll see how it performs over the next day. Thanks for the help. If it doesn't work I'll try your ROM next, sounds like it's rock solid.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Logiic:
I've tried installing apps + data through Titanium, just apps through Titanium, and even reinstalling the apps through the market. I've also used Incredikernel, Lou's, and stock Ziggy.

The problems never start for me until the 3rd day no matter what combination of app installation or Kernels I use. I do have quite a few modifications to this ROM, but I've left it completely unmodified in past nightlies and was still experiencing the random reboots (force closes have not really been an issue for me).

The only ROM that I really haven't had ANY problems with that I can think of is MIUI but I'm not a huge fan of the iPhone style phone and I love the custom Z launcher in WarmZ.

I even signed up on XDA and got my 10 posts just so I could follow and post in this thread. This is by far my favorite ROM but as someone else mentioned it is also a phone and for me it is a big part of my job and interaction with my clients (when I'm at work I don't have access to a computer).

I just hope these issues can get resolved in RLS2. And for the record I am willing to try pretty much any fix you guys can think of. Incubus asked me to send him a logcat after a random reboot but after I emailed it to him I haven't heard back from him to see if he knows what's caused it yet.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sruel3216:
man i cant think of my phone running any better then it is with lou 8. may try this tho...can you overclock it? thats the only thing i dont like bout lous kernels
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Logiic:
I'm actually flashing his Optimized Z right now to see how it compares. The threads seem to speak pretty highly of it in terms of stability.

EDIT: I'm going to flash Optimized Z tomorrow after the sms/mms fix is released so I don't have to flash both.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] stopthebus:
I am on the ztest BFS 4-10-11 for a couple of days now and so far it's been rock solid. The important part is camera save to EMMC with no problem.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] USSENTERNCC1701E:
Ziggy's usually can be OC'd to 1228K
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Newt:
you are correct and this one can be to but its not stable at that speed
