I noticed this issue today as well running #4. When launching Navigation with GPS off, it asks me if I'd like to go to settings > select yes > check use GPS and wait until the taskbar icon shows, etc. for a few seconds > press back > sits and stalls out with the same 'checking navigation' message. Also similarly I exited out of Navigation and launched Maps where it immediately zeroed in on my locations and then I input my destination through maps and was able to select "navigate to" and it worked that way.

Basically I just repeated everything you already said :p LOL, but yeah same issue....I'm currently waiting for boot screen to clear on #5 and I'll check it out again.

Someone said to check md5 check sums under Mac OS X you type:

md5sum <filename>

I've tried that, have the Mac dev tools installed but bad command. I also didn't get a man page either.

Can someone point me in the right direction please? :)

TIA

[Droid Incredible Android Development] RegnierD:
Download the G-Apps .zip from the OP, and your problems will be magically solved. Flash through Recovery. Tada! ;)

I'm a romwhore, and I'm damn proud of it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
Should be

md5 <filename>
[Droid Incredible Android Development] brillantesdv:
LED solid

my notification LED hasnt worked (always solid during notification as opposed to blinking) since gridlock's unofficial nightlies. i'm on a fresh install of#5 now and still no blinking LED.

ive seen some people have had a working LED. is there a setting i should be checking? i havent messed around with any of the cyanogen settings for LED notifications.

love the build so far though. LED notifications are the only thing that bugs me.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TrailBlazer31:
Just noticed that I am no longer successfully updating PRL (*228 option 2). Worked on 4. Says to call 1800 number. Also My Verizon can no longer gather my mobile number (worked on 4). Anyone else want to try?

Full wipe and clean install everytime.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
LED is under Sound settings.

And I'm having the same issues with updating PRL and My Verizon app.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] brillantesdv:
thanks. weird i never had to have that checked on 6.1.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
Any one else with PRL updating problems and My Verizon not working? If a couple more confirm, I'll throw it in the OP.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TrailBlazer31:
One thing you may want to check. I tried to check usage on verizonwireless.com and it said my usage data was unavailable. I am thinking my Verizon may be having issues all around.

Can u confirm?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RegnierD:
Confirmed, PRL update delivers the 1-800 message. It worked as of last build for me too. Oh well. Back to the Woodchuck I go. :) I'll be up a while longer if anyone has any other bugs I can try to replicate. Twenty til three is too early to sleep anyways, right?

I'm a romwhore, and I'm damn proud of it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RegnierD:
Here, I'll flash a Sense rom real fast and see if the PRL update/My Verizon works. I'll report back as soon as my phone allows.

I'm a romwhore, and I'm damn proud of it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] holden56:
I can't activate my phone either. Also they could be doing maintenance to systems or updates.IV had that happen before where I couldn't activate and was due to them working on system.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
Yep, probably Verizon. Says "Your information could not be retrieved at this time. Please try again later."

Also, for anyone with GPS issues, make sure Use Wireless Networks is unchecked and just Use GPS Satellites is checked.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TrailBlazer31:
Was this what u saw one verizonwireless.com?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
Yep. 10char
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TrailBlazer31:
I think u have a problem bwaaahahaha :-) let me know what u find.

Also try logging into verizonwireless.com and checkbif u can view usage info or if u get an error. THANKS!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GatorsUF:
Of course as soon as I post that, my phone reboots twice...just sitting on my desk.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
Y'all using stock kernel, no OC, wifi set to sleep never, HBOOT. 92, and 2.15 radio?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GatorsUF:
I am not, I am using the modified kernel...

seemed to be getting horrible battery life with stock kernel...but it ran smooth.

Any way I can flash back to it? or should I just restore my nandroid backup?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
Try my proposed setup to minimize variables for maximum stability to see if you still get reboots.

You can also reflash latest nightly. Make sure you check the HBOOT and radio, too.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] n0-0ne:
all that, tried slayhers for the smartass but never changed default clocks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
Slayher doesn't have smartass.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
try tiamat's 3.0.1 kernel. very fast. smartass, HAVS, oc to 1.19. no reboots
[Droid Incredible Android Development] n0-0ne:
my bad, it was 2.6.37-nodebug-havs-smartass-signed.zip, I guess it was inv's mod.

I've been running stock since about 37 or so.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GatorsUF:
Ok I am setup as you stated, except the wifi thing. Were is that setting?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] brillantesdv:
its been covered many times. its a bug in GV. happens on all builds of CM7 (not sure if all Gingerbread ROMs though)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
Shouldn't be necessary with slayher's new one, but it's under menu options in the wifi setting.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] reisa:
I've had it happen a time or three on both my Incredible and my OGMoto. A couple of times during calls and at least once while I was using Navigation. Trying the WiFi Sleep policy fix now and crossing my fingers (or at least waiting to see what #4 brings). I'm OC'ed to 1075, and was running the stock kernel when it happened. Using InvisibleK right now for Smartass, but it makes the transition animaions on LauncherPro a little choppy. I'm doing Dalvik wipes between kernels, but haven't done a full wipe since somewhere in the 20's.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RobertMaurizio:
Yes sir.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
Wait a second, stopping by the thread requires a mandatory CM7 theme. Everyone else donated one. Just kidding. Excellent work on your themes.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] whewstoosae:
The latest nightly plus Chad's newest kernel = epic!!!

Sent from my CM7 Incredible.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] necosino:
I would be quite concerned if his work was being merged into the nightlies. I tried sticking up for him at first but after the third strike, I won't do anything to support or condone him.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ianack123:
lol what did he even do? im not taking any sides btw. i just want to be informed since im fairly new to the android world. all i know is that no one likes him, and that he was recently banned from android central.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Qazme:
Not sure what he did exactly, but he's banned from incredibleforums, android central etc. So I would imagine he's not too swell of a guy, and in the past a level of this banning usually includes someone who has stolen work and not given credit. But who knows?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
Read TNS201's signature.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] stefan_lewinger:
So I seem to have a messaging problem I cannot figure out. I can't pinpoint exactly when it started happening but it was around the time I installed 7 RC 1 or nightly 38...

I only get my messages in bunches some time after they are sent. Its like after a while multiple texts get pushed through, just not when they were sent from the person. Sometimes i get multiple texts in the wrong order. I've also figured out the only way to get the texts to come through is when i call someone. Once i call someone, multiple texts push through.....really strange

Its like the phone has to actively access the network before is receives text messages...

I have no clue what this could be, any suggestions
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
Figured I would follow the trend and post pics of battery use. This is from today. I'm at 42% right now and mostly because I put my phone in flight mode when I know I have zero signal. A little paying attention can go a long way!

Edit: Accidentally added the same pic twice!

Another Edit: Running nightly #3 with the stock kernel and a screen off SetCPU profile to simulate smartass. And before you ask....It's the rover theme.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] PvilleComp:
Hey Qazme - Good to see you!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] CUViper:
I believe in judging only the merit of the work. If he (or anyone else) comes up with something worthwhile, it may indeed get in. Just have faith in the review process to keep out the junk.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ianack123:
HAHAHA thanks dude. i read all of them and LOLed while reading them. i always got a feeling he was a little sketchy when he would post on android central. he made a post saying some emo stuff about how he had a bad start here on XDA and that hopefully he can start new on that site
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
I think it would be helpful to touch the top of your screen next time and post that screen as well so it shows more detail. I have a hard time pushing the I believe button on the normal usage part of your post.

Edit: I suppose what I'm asking is....What is normal usage for you? It doesn't look like you used any apps or the phone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] brillantesdv:
Agreed. 24hrs uptime with 12hrs of screen off/not awake...not THAT impressive.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
do people know that you can turn off notifications in superuser so they dont block screenshots?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbeezybaby:
Hey guys I know this is a bit off topic( and a newb question) but where are the RM backups stored on the phone. I cant seem to find them and would like to back them up on the pc
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JetBomber117:
sdcard/clockworkmod/backup
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
Apparently not. I like the superuser noti's so I just trash the first drocap2 screen capture since that is the only one with the popup.

Some people don't mind having it in their screen caps I suppose.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
just wondered. lol. blocks stuff
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
You can also change the SU notification to show in the notification bar instead of the default popup called toast.

This doesn't ruin screen caps.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RobertMaurizio:
No build tonight? Or is it just getting started later? Looks like they did some interesting camera work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbeezybaby:
Hey thanks man.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbeezybaby:
I was just wondering how to do that earlier today. lol. Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] muaddib20:
HELLO THERE!

Buildbot is hiding from you. On purpose.

What Is that all about?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mmalkin:
New buildbot doesn't have waterfall view for nightlies according to @ChrisSoyars on twitter. :'{
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cam30era:
The first thing I would suggest is to clear cache and data for GV. It could also be an issue with your GV setup. Have you checked your GV inbox via your PC to see if SMS are coming through spontaneously?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mobilehavoc:
When did this become about who can squeeze the most battery life out of the phone? Of course you'll get amazing battery life if you hardly use it or use airplane mode, etc. I get 24 hours with normal to heavy use which is good enough. I don't worry about it and enjoy using the phone as much as I want.

Where are you all living that you can't just plug it into a charger if you need to? I just don't get it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rcdeck:
That is awesome!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
it starts with the people who get half a day with normal use.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rcdeck:
Right - My battery life is crap right now, but I'm pretty sure it's because of Words With Friends ;)

Prior to that, my battery life was descent.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] byrong:
That's the only reason I jumped in with my numbers. A lot of people try the rom for a few hours, state that "battery life sucks" with it, and then give up. I only posted my results to show that long life (relative to what the Incredible is capable of, not necessarily compared to other phones) is very possible with this rom and its available kernels.

Of course, the people who are stating that it all has to do with usage are absolutely right. I don't refute that for a moment, and when people ask about battery saving techniques I usually tell them to better evaluate how they are using their phone to see where they can gain efficiencies.

So if I ever post batt stats to a rom thread it's not to say, "you'll match this performance for sure," but rather, "if you are only getting 5 hours of life, it's probably your own fault and not the rom's"
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
talk time is the worst. its my only phone and during the week i need it to talk a lot. if i know it might be a long conversation, i turn the processor speed way down to 345. but i dont think it helps much, if at all
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Jes7er:
No nightly? :(
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
Exactly!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] AdhvanIt:
Six hours normal use here. Lol. I've come to expect that though... :)

Regardless of ROM kernel radio. I don't mind it too terribly. I always have a charger handy, which I learned to do two weeks after I got my G1..

via Evervolv GB
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
I think you hit the nail on the head when you said you just don't get it. Charging outlets aren't always available and people do blame the ROM.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
I carry an energizer battery pack with a USB port on it. Works in a pinch and it came with a small USB cable that I can use in any USB port.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bobby janow:
It sounds kind of cool, but wouldn't it be much easier to just buy another battery for around $15 (comes with external charger) and stick that in your pocket? That would surely give you 2 days especially if you turned off 3G if you were in a pinch.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] staringatpuddles:
If I have my screen off even with 3g turned on, it barely uses the battery, if at all. Granted when I start using it the battery definitely begins to deplete, but not at an incredibly fast rate (unless I have something like 3g and a game going) all in all its been very stable and the battery life is very satisfactory

[Droid Incredible Android Development] execute_method:
Did you install flash?

Sent from my "girlfriend"... According to my wife.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RobertMaurizio:
I do not have unlimited data, so I almost always have 3g turned off. When I am in need of data, I only turn the wifi on when I need it. Between light/moderate texting and phone calls (normal use), I will typically go about 28-30 hours before the battery is under 30% (generally when I consider charging).

I have always heard the battery life on the Incredible and EVO are atrocious. While I agree it's not GREAT, I have no complaints. These phones are amazing. Technology has progressed at a pace which batteries cannot keep up with. Hopefully in the coming years we'll see better batteries.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
I don't want to take my phone apart to change the battery. And the battery pack is smaller than the phone. I only end up using it about twice a month anyway.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] userjf:
Same problem here!!!! They say my phone rings the full 6 or 7 times, but my phone shows no missed calls. Then, all the sudden, I will get like 5 or 6 voicemail notifications and 3 or 4 text messages all at the same time!!!!!!!

Stock Kernel, Nightly #2
[Droid Incredible Android Development] userjf:
Known issue... doens't work for many people.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] elpeterson:
i got myself one of these from ThinkGeek. I like it a lot.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] userjf:
Same problem here... I'm starting to see more people with this type of issue... I hope someone can find the issue!

Stock Kernel + Nightly #2
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
depending where im gonna be and how long i will be there, i always have another fully charged battery in my pocket(have an external charger). if its more than a day, i carry my external charger with me, which will fit in my pocket. i have wi-fi explorer on my phone if i need to access a pc
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
That is about the same size as mine. Just a different brand. Nice in a pinch huh?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
that's the drawback. sooner or later i'm gonna be calling vzw for a new back from cuz it will probably wear out
[Droid Incredible Android Development] blastthenoise:
Someone want to do me a favor and just send me a text message when nightly #4 comes online? kthx

But in all seriousness, it's been a while since i've flashed (currently on 39 with chad's new kernel) because i had to repartition my device the other day. Nothing more frustrating than waking up to find a dead phone (passed out drunk) only to turn it on and find it cant read your microsd card (unsupported file system bs) and then suddenly bootloop because it cant mount the /data partition. WOO fresh starts

tl;dr Has anyone ever experienced problems after letting their battery drain to nothing? It's happened to me on several different roms now.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Homan13PSU:
Upgraded to RC2 on Sunday. Initially I wiped data and re-flashed but lots of stuff was broken. Downgraded and flashed right over top of the last nightly I was running (35 I think) and smooth sailing from there.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dspcap:
Couple of thoughts on the recent posts....

For all the people that are bragging about their great battery life, can you please state what battery you are using and a few of the tricks you have incorporated to get there? Some of the times just don't seem believable.

Also, I have noticed that I am not receiving occastional calls. I was right next to my phone yesterday when my wife called and it didn't ring. Five minutes later, I see I missed her call. My ringer was set to normal, so it couldn't have been that. Any thoughts?

Thanks... seems like I step away from my computer for 5 minutes and there's 10 new pages to read.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Homan13PSU:
Sorry, one other thing. I was looking around but couldn't find it (this thread grows faster than a Biggest Loser contestants waisteline); are the latest CM7 releases built in with a data throttle mod?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] userjf:
RC2? Don't get ahead of yourself there ;)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] userjf:
No, you have to apply it yourself.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] blackstallion:
Can the browser in CM7 be taken out of mobile browser mode so that all sites open in there regular format rather than mobile format? Some sites mobile format sux because it limits the info it provides and its functionality. I know on the stock froyo rom you could do this with that browser.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Homan13PSU:
LOL. Yeah, sadly I don't have the time to be installing every night or every release, so I try and stick to grabbing the latest update on CM's site every Sunday.

Good deal, thanks man.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] past_pluto:
Some of us are trying to squeeze out battery life while using the phone regularly so we can take it off charge when we get out of bed and not have to plug it up until we get back into bed. I can do that and then some now.

I should have saved a shot of batt stats yesterday. I went 16 hours on a 1750 but only had 18% left. My voice calls were 41% my display was at 38%. First time ever I ran something more than the display.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Yes. Go into the browser's settings and choose "Select User Agent" and change it to one of the desktops.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] AdhvanIt:
For those missing calls...

Are you guys underclocking at all? I.e. Chad's kernel @ 128/245 for screen off? I remember a few people in the Eris forums having some issues with missing calls, texts, etc. No idea how this could affect it, other than the device being too slow to register it with the screen off being set that low. Might try raising the minimum clock speeds a little.

via Evervolv GB
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
that seems to be an issue going down to 128. lot of kernels got rid of 128.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dspcap:
I am running Chad's Kernel @128 like he recommends. Would you recommend going back to stock or changing chad's to 245? or better question, what do you recommend?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] blackstallion:
Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] x2kjosh:
With my Eris, there was always threads about calibrating your battery... am I just missing it or does no one here do that? Discharge your phone 100%, Charge your phone 100%, on AC power delete batterystats.bin (wipe batts stats) then unplug and discharge 100% again.... I do this and with heavy data use and usage in general have no problem making it through the day. I do that about once a month...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
whats been your experience with 128? for me, the phone would take longer to wake up and i don't remember what other things now. been a while. i know other people had problems with some of the kernels so a few devs made the min back to 245. if it's not causing you any trouble at all, then it doesnt hurt to keep it there. 128 that is
[Droid Incredible Android Development] inline6power:
well yesterday afternoon i started to experience the miss call ordeal you guys are. while i was using chads kernel, battery life was great and i loved the fast charging but couldnt deal with the missed call thing so went to slayers kernel this morning and phone is much snappier when ansering a call and not a problem now. think its a kernel deal but i also think it has to do with underclocked to 128 like mentioned above.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GatorsUF:
CM#3

Stock Kernel

No SetCPU

Wifi Never Sleeps

3 Mail Accounts (2 gmail, one outlook)

GPS on

Wifi always on (am not sure about the gps on off wifi programs...)

I am at 49% battery after 5-1/3 hours. Is this about normal?

Moderate use.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ProTekk:
Running at 128 has yielded no issues here for me. Great battery life with my 3500 mAh Seidio. Only missed calls I've had are due to the fact that I always turn my phone on silent in my sleep somehow. I always fall asleep with the phone in my hand. :rolleyes:
