[Q] Just Rooted - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I installed the cyanogenmod 7 rc, do i have to activate my phone after?

It should be activated...
Sent from God, who uses CM7 RC1.

No. It is already activated. Now you just have to learn to respect a ROM that is buggy and not finished.

I installed the cmod 7 rc from Rom manager and when I install an app from the market it would force close on the first open but it works fine after uninstalling and installing again. Should I do a factory wipe or something? I have a few other questions too. What's the most stable Rom with the new sense from the desire z or hd? I have more but I'm gonna sleep now. Thanks for the help. I've done this sort of thing with the psp but I guess that isn't really that hard compared to this. Thanks for the help,I hope one day I can be a developer or something.

- Normal. That is a common bug in that release, only hope is to wait for a new release and that they fix it in the next one (that is if you want to keep flashing the nightlies)

They're most likely much more stable than the CM7 ROM you're running now- however since I haven't tried either of the above ROM's I can't really compare or comment on it.

[Q] Gmail Margin Problem with Gingerbread ROMs

Does anyone else have problems with the right margin in Gmail, where there's a good-sized gap of whiteness? See the screenshot below to understand what I'm talking about. It happens to me just about on every ROM that is based on Gingerbread. I can rotate my screen to landscape mode, then back to portrait, and it's fine. But, when I close Gmail, open it back up, it happens just like what you see in the attachment again. It totally sucks.
Thoughts?
Anyone have suggestions on how to fix this?
Nothing? Wow...
Just for the record, I have tried the following gapps with various Gingerbread ROMs, and these do experience the right-margin issue in Gmail.
- gapps-gb-20110120-signed.zip
- gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip
I've never had this problem running the following ROMs...
- Virtuous 1.0.1 (HTC Sense)
- GingerVillain 1.5 (Gingerbread)
- all Froyo-based ROMs
Just hoping someone has a simple fix, tweak or anything to get around this problem. Thanks.
Same problem on cm7

What's causing this and how can it be fixed? That's what I'd like to know.

I don't have this problem, not sure if I ever did but if I did, I didn't notice it. I'm running a rom that's based on a CM 7 nightly after RC2, can't remember exactly the version. First try to go in to app management and clear all app data for Gmail and see if that fixes it for you.

I've done all of that on various CM7-based ROMs, and it doesn't help. Running a ROM based on HTC Sense (i.e. Virtuous 1.0.1) has zero Gmail issues whatsoever, so it's apparently related to Gingerbread... or something Cyanogen related. I just wish that stock Gingerbread comes out soon, one that is truly AOSP based and not filled with Cyanogen. I have nothing against CM in any way shape or form, I just want to have a taste of PURE Gingerbread.

Of course I did that. I always do a full data/cache/dalvik wipe between ROMs. I don't have this problem with non-Gingerbread ROMs.

okay so I got the same problem with my nexus one. x10,desire ž and desire hd on cm7. I'm not sure if its supposed to be this way but it's quite annoying once you notice it
I am also having this problem with Gmail on CM 7 nightly 30. Honestly I didn't even notice it until you pointed it out. Only seems to happen with text though.

[Q] Camera Force Closing

Hi I've recently rooted my phone & when I went to use the camera, it force closed on me. I'm running CM 6.1.1 and I'm still fairly new to this but I'm wondering why its doing this. Can someone help me out? I've already cleared the data and restarted the phone. Do I need to try and use another ROM or is that not called for? TIA!
Well, I reccomend you use CyanogenMod 7 not 6 because a. Its newer, and B. 6 is no longer supported, so any issures arnt concerns, so give 7 a go

Okay thank you for your input. With 7 will my camera problem be fixed or what? Also like I said before I'm still new to rooting so I'm gonna see. Thanks again!

Thank you so much! I'm not really ready for Gingerbread on my phone yet (still new to rooting and getting used to froyo which I'm loving). I didn't know about the fix permissions thing (learning something new) and I'm running it right now. Thanks again for the advice!

[Q]Roms

So, since AlphaRev is comming soon(-ish) I would like to get some information about roms. Or some suggestions.
I'm looking for a non-sense rom, that is fast (preferably Gingerbread).
Also; If I install CM7 (GB) will I have to install any custom kernels for overclocking?
Thank you for your help :]
No, CM7 comes with a kernel that supports overclocking by default.
ROM List here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1029318
Thanks for that info.
Concerning your list, I'm looking for some input from other users
Can't really help you there, because the only AOSP (Non - Sense) ROM I have used till date is CM7, both stable and nightlies. Personally, I am very satisfied with it, and would whole heartedly recommend it, but, ROM choice is a personal thing.

What is the main advantage of nightlies over the stable one?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA Premium App
Nightlies integrate many changes, developed over time.They are kind of "unofficial / beta builds", so there's no official support for bugs on those. Thus, nightlies may give new features, but may also have the potential for introducing new bugs.
One example: The nightlies use Android 2.3.4 since quite a while back, but all stable versions are still on 2.3.3. The next stable version will obviously incorporate 2.3.4
Thank you
Guess I'll go for the stable cm7 once AlphaRevX comes.

[Q] Google apps are crashing

Hello guys, i have a big problem and i could not find a solition on my on.
I have a rooted android that i was able to update from 4.0.3 to 4.2.2 via OTA (i had to flash recovery, but not with CW, the stock one), but i wanted the new 4,4 kit kat. I found a ROM in and followed the instructions, witch told me to install the gapps for 4.3 and 4.4 and them the android ROM. When i did that the android ROM gave me status 7 errorm so i decided to stay with 4.2.2 already installed, but now all my google apps crash, i can't open the store, google+ or any google app, even their server crashes.
I get this mesage "unfortunatly, google play has stoped working" every time i press it's buttom.
i instaled the gapps for 4.2 again, but it still crashes. I think it's the ROM instalation gone bad.
I don't mind using 4.2.2, i just want to use it. If i could make the 4.4 work or just re-install jelly bean, i'd be so glad. I tryed formating/restore factory, but i does not work, i still get the crashes.
I don't know if its clear enough. But i apreciate any help i can get. I found similar problems searching the forum, but none of the answers helped me.

Did not work, i am downloading CM 11 and i ll try to install it
I solved the problem guys. After trying to install CM 11, i found out that even the HTC one X topic where posting info that only works with HTC One, not the X. They where all about m7 and the others, but not endeavoru like mine.
So i tryed to install the CM 10.2 and the gapps for 4.3. It seens to be all good, altough i am still testing.
The secret was to flash boot the boot.img, like this tutorial says.

Ok, i was just talking to someone that was having the exact same problem as you and it turned out that he wasnt properly doing a full wipe.
You need to format everything other than the sd. In 4ext the option for this is in wipe > format all partitions (except sdcard)
Make sure you do this.

1. Users arent really having to go through much trouble. The only difference now is that you need to reboot in between flashing the rom and gapps.
2. By slightly breaking the setup wizard, I seem to have been able to fix the WiFi bug where it would get stuck turning on. I would rather have better working WiFi that I constantly use, than a perfectly working setup wizard which I only use once. Im sure the majority of other users feel the same.
you're right. I just said. Don't be mad on me :|

VPN Issues
Greetings, I have installed Beanstalk 4.4.2 on my 4 years old Desire just few days ago. So far so good, it is great, fast, it really revived my smartphone. But ...
What is the reason no form of VPN works on it? I have some prepaid solution and its app doesn't work. OpenVPN doesn't. PP2P/L2TP solutions don't work. Is it system bug which needs fix or am I doing anything wrong?
Thanks for answer.

Sorry to ruin it for you but camera will not be fixed with K3 release, if it will be released anytime which I highly doubt anymore. It is a matter of unreleased sources and libs by HTC, so the best we will get is what we already have, camera-wise. So long story short, if you want fully functional camera and video recording, GB is the only way or that chinese ICS released sometime ago.

So if I want fully functional and fast HTC Desire I should go for Mild Wild or pure CM? What is the difference between cm based and redux based MW? Thanks.

I would recommend Mildwild MW rom based on redux2.

They're just slightly different ROM bases. Install both, see which one you prefer
It's the best way to find out, unlike recommendations without justifications as above..
Remember you can maximise space much better with either of those ROMs as they into smaller hboots
CM version will fit into cm7r2, redux should fit into oxygenR2, check the threads.
