[HTC Incredible S] carolinaguy99:
It comes with an 8g pre-installed into the device, I didn't pay extra, what you're looking at is the option to buy another microsd. I looked for about 2 days before ordering from popularelect.com, they were the cheapest, and the only ones who seemed remotley responsive to what I wanted, had the device in stock, and could ship the same day I ordered. They were very prompt with a tracking number and I recieved the device one day after ordering it (less than 24 hours actually) They had great customer service and threw in a free car charger and adapter for the EU wall socket to US wall socket.

I tested the phone in the Atlanta market. Speeds were same as my Nexus One- ~4mbps down, 1.5mbps up. Surprised me because I thought the Incredible S takes advantage of the HSDPA+ network, as opposed to just plain ol' HSDPA.

Input from anybody...?
[HTC Incredible S] NardVa:
The Nexus One is a 7.2 Mbps phone and the Incredible S is a 14.4 Mbps phone. Theoretically you wouldn't get the full potential of the the Incredible S unless you were getting speeds greater than 7.2 Mbps for download.

I do get what you're saying. If anything the speeds should still come in faster on the Incredible S because of the faster 4G radio. I would recommend running multiple speed test on the Nexus One and Incredible S. The speeds on the Incredible S should avg out to be slightly better.

also is Cache safe to wipe at anytime without having to reflash the rom, mod, and theme? i did see some people have issues and wiping the cache also helped fixxed some issues.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coiledwire:
If your flashing a new ROM, wipe data, cache, dalvik, and SD:ext.

If your flashing a mod or kernel, wipe cache, dalvik, and SD:ext.

If your switching between Sense and ASOP ROMs and find out you have unexplained issues, wipe system as well. (I haven't needed to do this yet)

Don't forget to do multiple nandriod backups, just in case 1 of them is corrupted.

Enjoy.

Edit: Yes, flashing cache can be done anytime.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coiledwire:
Hmmm, I guess I've been lucky. I haven't had any problems yet with flashing ROMs. I make a point to religiously wipe (multiple times even) before flashing.

I've heard of possible issues with AMON_RA 2.3. I don't use it, but that's the general feeling I get from reading that thread.

Here is a bootloader image of AMON_RA 2.2.1 (its labeled as PC36IMG), load it on your SD card in the root folder. When bootloader comes on, it will scan and find this image automatically. Allow it to run and it'll give you 2.2.1.

I'd try that. Then wipe and flash using 2.2.1; see if that gets you to a working system.

thank you for the tip there. but it failed also. it fails to load any rom the second i flash slayer69 dragon. sucks too. maybe its cause i used unrevoked3
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elegantai:
You also want to be wiping system and boot between new roms, that is most likely what's causing it.

Here is a nice little zip that wipes in one swoop, flash it like a rom when going to a new rom:

http://db.tt/RtRcDLr

Its just a little script that makes wiping easier.

And I use amon 2.3 no problem so that's not the issue.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyhassen:
so with this i dont need to wipe anything else??? just flash that and it formats for me?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elegantai:
Correct, it simply wipes system, data, cache, dalvik, and boot through the zip.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyhassen:
awesome i will test that out and i will let u kno the outcome. and thank you!

EDIT: ok well the format.zip ROCKS..... but... the theme still didnt work. i can see the status bar but. the launcher just doesnt exist. its a solid black screen with the status bar. ive tried rebooting and still doesnt work.

idk if its cause the way im doing it or what.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coiledwire:
I used unrEVOked3 also and I haven't experienced any of the problems you are.

Your theme zip file may be corrupted from downloading. I don't know if where you downloaded lists the correct md5 checksum or not. If they do, compare the one you have to the one they give. If they don't give you the correct checksum, download the theme twice and compare the checksum against each other.

If you're using a windows system, search for a checksum program. I don't remember the name of it, but I installed a free one that added that data to the properties window.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyhassen:
ok so if i do that, how do i deal with it after. cause ive downloaded the file 7 times and tried them all. even unrooted my phone and rerooted. tried 3 different recoveries. idk if using EVO_Radio_2.15.00.11.19_WiMAX_27167_R01_PRI_NV_1.90_003.zip

would cause it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elegantai:
Is it possible the theme is incompatible with the rom?

Usually a theme replaces the rom's framework-res.apk, and if they are not compatible, you basically overwrite necessary files in that apk which will result in errors/problems.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coiledwire:
I don't think that radio flash would cause your themed launcher from appearing. Just be careful with flashing radios, as its one of the few things that have a high chance to brick your phone if something goes wrong.

Generally you want to make sure any files downloaded aren't corrupt and you wipe before flashing. Some ROMs like to be flashed and booted into before applying any themes, while other ROMs need to have the theme installed before the 1st boot into the OS.

Seems like you're having a specific issue with the theme. I would check that theme's thread and see if anyone there has any insight for you. Sorry I can't be more help than that. Good luck.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyhassen:
ok well thank you for the replies. but as for the issue. the odd part is i rooted and flashed myn's warm rls5 and then the slayer69 cyan dragon theme and it loaded perfect. well i unrooted cause i had to bring the phone back to to issue. the sprint guy forgot to take the LED chip out of the white back when he put the red back on.

For some reason you have to flash RC1 over the top of a previous nightly build for it to work. To be honest, right now, you're better just sticking with nightly #38 or wait for #39 to come out tonight as it is supposed to have a fix for the new lock screens.

I managed to get CM7 on my phone without a problem. Right after I rooted using Unrevoked, i used ROM manager to download and install CM7 and it all went rather painlessly.

The lock screen thing is a little annoying, though. I wanted to use the lockscreen gestures that CM lets you do, but it layered under the lock pattern... all in all i find it pretty stable.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayjr1105:
Hey all. Just joined the forums a few minutes ago and I have a burning question on why it is necessary to flash back to stock with odin before you try different roms. Why can you not just boot into clockwork, factory wipe, wipe cache, wipe d cache and then simply load the new rom from sd? The reason I ask is because I have been bouncing between cognition and paragon for about 2 weeks now NOT using the method of flashing back to stock 2.1 without a single problem. I'm sure there is a good reason flashing back to 2.1 before trying new roms, I would just like to know why. I was able to preform a stock wipe using odin3 one time last week (just did it to make sure the phone would do it) it just seems like a really long process, but I'll start doing it that way to avoid a brick.

Thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
to be safe, and some roms mod files that others dont, some roms depend on apps and files in the stock rom that might be different or not there at all in other roms.

long process? extra 5 minutes when you get used to it. if you are ATT use ODIN ONE CLICK to restore stock 2.1 (hint: it takes one click)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dupontrocks11:
For the most part, you don't really need to flash back to stock. It used to be a bigger deal to flash back to stock because some of the Roms would intervene with each other and mess things up. It is still recommened for a clean flash, but I rarely do it and my flashes work great.

EDIT: @Trusselo: damn it! Second time someone beat me to the answer tonight!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opcow:
It's not necessary and not even a good idea. Also, why wipe cache and d-cache when the install script does that?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opcow:
ROMs don't mod or use any files which are on the phone prior to installing them. All the files on your phone after the install were in the CWM flashable zip file. Any ROM cook would be stupid to do otherwise. The exception would be no-wipe ROMs, but you would never flash to stock before using one of those.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dlev7:
Ive also wondered this as well and talking to guys like opcow, and a couple other Devs such as MikeyMike and a lot of guys at the Andromeda IRC they all agree that you should be perfectly fine now as long as you wipe everything before you flash.

I may try with Andromeda when I get home because I have my PC and Jig there just in case but still may try now. But also tlaking to a lot of users that they dont even do it anymore now because of the install scripts and as Opcow said if you think logically its technically safer.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dlev7:
Actually thats not true at all.

If your a build 1009 and under you can use the one click. Although the build 1008 sometimes have problems.

But for the Build 1010's and up (like me) you have to use Odin3 and take a good 30-40 minutes just to get to JH7 because half of the time I lose my 3 buttons then have to push the 3 button fix over via ADB. I have gotten use it and its a pain in the ass.

And the time I listened to someone that says ALL ATT people can use the one click it completely ****ed my phone and if I didnt have a jig my phone would have been completely screwed up.

Im not trying to be rude im just saying I saw a post very similar to that a couple weeks ago and it came very close to completely bricking my phone and reading posts here now saying they have the same problem and if they dont have a jig they just got a 200 dollar paper weight.

Sorry for getting off topic back to topic today Im going to flash Andromeda over Darkyy 9.3 and wipe data cache and d cache in CWM and see how it goes although everyone and even the devs and a lot of users now a days say it should work perfectly.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dupontrocks11:
+1 Guys if you don't know exactly what to do/suggest please don't say it. I'm not trying to start a war, but a wrong suggestion can easily soft or hard brick someones phone. This is a forum, so no one can stop you from saying things, but think about if it happened to you? You would be pissed!

Anyways back on topic, what model phone do you have, because having a 1009 model phone makes flashing and going back to stock (usually) so much easier. But then again, I rarely use odin because all the roms are compatible for the most part.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] egypt3:
I've never used ODIN because I haven't wanted to try to run it from GNU/Linux in a virtual box.

I just wipe and flash from clockwork like the op. Been flashing roms for a couple months now, never had a single problem. (except when I noobed it up by trying to flash back to a nandroid backup via Rom Manager. Even then, didn't need Odin to sort it out).

If I ever run into a problem, then I'll try Odin, but I'm waiting to cross that bridge till I come to it.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1tontomato:
There was once a time when all the new roms were built on the unofficial froyo and it only had 3e recovery. The quickest way to get around that was to flash stock. Also the lag fixes were tricky and easily fixed by flashing stock. Now recovery is in the kernel. As long as you insure the kernal lag fix in rom A understands the kernal lag fix in rom B flash away. Nandroid backups are kind of useless they don't backup the kernal or the modem. Save odin for when things go really wrong(;~ )

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DamianGto:
no need to do that.

use titanium backup first.

then you need to flash a custom kernel.

no need to flash any other firmware.

in that kernel it should be a backup option.

just remember that it will also have the custom kernel in that backup.

you can't.

you must change the kernel to be able to use the backup in the recovery.

if you want that back you just use restore in the recovery then you flash back your original kernel and you have your stock Rom back.
