Cool! Any calendar fix yet? Thanks!

Loving this ROM. Fast and smooth.
Can't buy apps from the market though- it just returns the generic error. Is there a fix for that?

problem with all ice cream sandwich ROMs

is there a fix for the wireless tether problem, or its just me?

is there an android os bug fix and full bar signal bug?
is there an android os bug fix in the rom?

Strangest thing.... Was on CNA, decided to try ICSSGS, didn't like it as well so flashed back and calendar was there. I assume because I did not wipe on the flash back to CNA?
FWIW, I have tried this, ICSSGS, and CM9. CNA is my favorite. I have had almost no issues. 1 app won't run, but it is from my small, local bank.

That issue is fixed on ICSSGS and maybe others, I'm not certain if it involves some adjustments ROM-side, or it should be fixed by using latest gapps. I previously encountered the issue but haven't seen it in quite some time.
The alternative would be buying them in the browser/pc.

How To Print Screen
Anyone know how I would perform a print screen?

Nevermind, found the answer (Volume Down + Power Button)

Hi guys,
I'm interested in trying this ROM out.
I'm coming from Serendipity VII, which if I understand correctly is I9000 based. Just to make sure I understand what I'm doing, I should just be able to reboot to recovery, and install the CNA ROM from the zip file, correct? Any other steps necessary?
Thanks

I got it installed (with the Glitch kernel - running at 1.4Ghz so far), and I'm very impressed
The only issue I haven't yet been able to figure out is the external SD card. It seems that it now gets mounted under /mnt/emmc/ ? For whatever reason, the music player can't find the media that I have on the external SD card. Any ideas? I can find it using ES File Explorer and play the files individually.

Privacy
There has been an ever-increasing number of apps which want access to private information (like call logs, location, and contact information) without needing it to run the application. I'm talking about games and not apps which require such information like Anti-virus and such. Will we ever have a permission manager a la MIUI on this ROM? I understand that many developers work in concert, so I am wondering why most ROM's are not created with safeguards in place to protect private information. I am aware that I am not in the MIUI Q&A section, but I feel this is an issue that all ROM's should consider in order to protect private information. I know that I don't have to install apps which ask for this information if I don't want to give up my information, but it seems that every app nowadays asks for these permissions and it would be a shame to continue as if there were nothing wrong with compromising private information to play a game.
Thanks in advance.

I was one if the unlucky ones that had no 3g data after flashing this rom, flashed glitch, moved apn-conf.XML to the /system/etc/ directory overwriting the old file.
This did not bring data back. I decided to look at the apn list and noticed that it was blank. Clicked the menu button, then selected reset to defaults. Ten minutes later I had data.

Lock Screen
Has the lock screen been updated to allow for custom applications where it shows the icon of the custom application instead of that alien looking character? This was one of the reasons I moved away from this ROM and would love to come back. I'm not a fan of having to try to remember which application ties to which alien character.

Not yet. It still shows the animated android.
Nostalgia shows the custom icons on the ICS lock screen. (haven't flashed any other ICS roms yet.)
Update 3/24:
All aosp roms do not show custom icons.
All aokp based roms do show custom icons.
aosp also seems a little laggier than aokp. Playing angry birds space @ 1.3 ghz resulted in click and audio lag. (Gummy charged was my aosp test platform at that time).
Docs runs blazing fast at same speed with no click lag. Aokp m28 clocked at 800 MHz / glitch runs smooth. I think this is because of the scrolling cache which I force disabled in from control.
Thanks for your work bringing ics to captivate.

Any way to disable the proximity sensor in this rom? The thing is the cappy i purchased came with that sensor dead.. This makes the phone freeze while making calls for example.. I'm using right now MIUI 2.3.2 Gingerbread 2.3.7 and I can disable it with almost no effort at all..
Thanks in advance
P.S. Check it out the attachment

Sorry but I don't really see how the rotation would be related to the proximity sensor functionalities. I could try that, but I would be more than grateful if you could explain me a little further the relationship between those two.. Anyways I have to download the rom, nandroid backup, and flash everything to test it out.
Thanks for the reply

you are correct, the proximity sensor does not control rotation. a bit a of a flub on my part sorry.
here are some things I tried with my AOKP rom (don't think the AOSP - CNA is too much different?)
1) There is no setting in the call menu for the proximity sensor.
2) However if you cover your sensor (which is broken anyways right?) a dab of black nail polish, to block all the light from it. I covered my sensor with my thumb and the screen stayed on. However if the problem is deeper within your hardware (possibly the control IC for the sensor), it will still lock up when it tries to access the current state of the sensor.
3) It's possible from what I've found that your sensor is okay, and that there is an internal blockage to the sensor cover. (though, my phone didn't lock up with the sensor covered?). Try canned air/ Vacuum to clear the blockage?
4) There are a several application options as none of the ICS roms I've used appear to have that MIUI option.

[ROM]Cyanogenmod 10 - Unofficial - Latest Build: 9/12

See Pon's thread for continued CM10 support.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1882918
Thanks.
Cyanogenmod 10 for the Droid Incredible - Unofficial
The CM team has officially dropped support for the Droid Incredible with the last supported release being CM7.
Credit
First, all credit goes to the following, I simply benefit from their work
Team Evervolv - Donate
Evervolv is responsible for keeping the device tree and a lot of the hardware drivers up to date, without them, we'd most likely have no roms.
Cyanogenmod - Donate
Cyanogenmod is responsible for all the features of the rom, without them we'd be stock with AOSP.
Stripped
Due to the increasing size of the system files to run JellyBean and Google apps and our limited system partition, some things have to be removed from the rom, otherwise things don't work, you blame me, you're sad, I'm sad, and no one wants that. Some things are also removed as I don't use them and removing them each time I flash a rom is a bother. That's the real reason I made this rom anyway. You should be able to replace almost anything that's been removed by installing it as a user app, adding it to your SD Card, or adding it to the rom before you flash it. If in doubt, ask.
AOSP ring tones, CM ring tones still exist
Apollo
The AOSP Music Player app - Play Music replaced this long ago imo
CM Wallpapers
DSP Manager
Live Wallpapers
OpenVPN
Non-English Dictionaries (Only matters if you're using the AOSP keyboard)
Rom Manager
Video Editor App
What doesn't work
Camcorder - not working on any Inc rom atm
Video Playback - Something in CM10 is causing it to break and trying to find out which piece is difficult
Other things? You tell me. I don't use the phone the same way you do, so something else could be broke.
Source Code
Can be found at my github here. If you want to build it yourself, feel free to tweak it, but please read the instructions, as at the time of this writing, there are many reverts to be made. I have them setup so they apply automatically when I repo sync using a shell script, you can do the same.
Downloads
* Note feel free to post a mirror if you like, buyer beware though.

Stock camera is no longer fuzzy and upstream commits from CM.
cm-10-20120909-UNOFFICIAL-inc.zip
Updates include working mms and upstream commits from CM.
cm-10-20120901-UNOFFICIAL-inc.zip
Upstream commits include: SMS popup, variable lockscreen pattern size (up to 6x6), advanced phone settings from CM9, and audio over bluetooth should work (thanks to EV). Also, the toggle LED flashlight option in the notification drawer works now.
Third party camera apps don't work in this building unless using Tiny's kernel. incredikernel-jb-beta2.zip - 2.63 MB
cm-10-20120830-UNOFFICIAL-inc-stable.zip
Main changes over 8/28 are upstream commits and updates to the stock kernel
Google Apps
Latest Evervolv Gapps is recommended due to their smaller size.
Goo.im Gapps also work, but are larger and you will need to watch your system space when flashing these.
Flashing
Cyanogenmod is designed to not need wipes between flashes. While this generally holds true, I've found occasionally flashing does solve an error or two. If something doesn't work after a dirty flash, clean flash before you report the problem. The download will say if a flash is required, otherwise follow what was just said.
Issues
If you're having issues follow this list of steps.
Check that you're on the latest build, if not, get on it
If you dirty flashed, clean install
If it's an issue with voice search or Google now, check system space, if it's full, free some and reflash gapps
If it's an issue with an app, try a clean install of said app
If it still doesn't work, search the thread, does someone have the same issue?
If no one has the issue, get a logcat and post in the thread, don't PM me. Logcats should be uploaded to a paste website, not directly posted on the forum.
Run around in circles until I or someone else posts a solution to your problem. If you get tired, take a break, then try to solve it yourself, if you do, post the results!
Thanks again to Team Evervolv and Cyanogenmod for making this rom possible.
Enjoy.

Haven't tried this yet but it's nice to see that it has found the light of day out of the Q&A section. Best of luck with this ROM as I know myself and many others will be following it.

Thank you for making this. It's good to see the Inc keep up.
I've recently come to the decision that having a working camcorder is more important than having the latest and greatest shiny, so I'm back down to CM7 for the time being.

Thanks for your efforts in making this available, it's great to have choice and I was beginning to miss the CM customization. I'm running a slightly older build now, but it's running great for me, and I'll be sure to be updating it to this newest when I get a chance.

Glad to see this thread in the Dev section now! So far this ROM is running great for me. I'll be installing the new 8/30 build soon.
Thanks for everything Zimeron

Thank you for this! Also, for some reason I thought the initial post was especially well written so props for that as well.

8/30 Working Well
I am running the 8/30 version with Evervolv's gapps and incredikernel. No new issues that I can find (just still konwn issues with camera and video). I don't have anything bluetooth so I can't test that. I was running Albinoman's but missed the CM addons.
Did CM9 ever get flashlight working in the notification widget? It is greyed out on CM10.
thanks Zimeron

Okay, I have to ask... How doe this compare to Albinoman's Jellybean Beta 3?

Flashlight in the notification widget, never seen/used that before. I think I can get this turned on from some commits I saw today for other devices.

Anyone play words or scramble with friends while using this rom? It's a silly thing but I was wonder if you do, do you get updates when it's your turn?
It's really hit or miss on roms. Some ICS roms will notify, others will not.Evervolv's does not. I will flash anyways,just wondering.
Thanks for keeping this phone alive.

Any chance you could add in the offline voice dictation feature? I thought it was a standard feature of JB, but there's no ability to download the offline language pack in the voice search settings.

My bad! I should have tested it before posting haha. Your build fixed it actually. It didn't work on Albino's build, and I assumed it wouldn't work on this build either because it doesn't have the Offline Voice download setting. But I just tested it and it worked great! With no internet connection, I was able to dictate a text message
Loving this ROM!
On a side note, I just updated to 8-30 and noticed that I needed to reflash gapps after because my google program were missing. In the past with CM9, I didn't need to install gapps after a new nightly and relogin, etc. Is there any way to have it retain gapps when flashingover?

The script is there to maintain gapps, but I've found it to work randomly. I have flash it everytime to be safe, my brother never flashes it and never needs to on his Inc, no idea what's different, and it's not worth it to me to dig into it when it takes two seconds to queue another zip to flash with TWRP.

k sounds good. Not sure why, but 8-30 is running amazing and noticeably smoother than 8-28. I'm also using Tiny's JB kernel and it seems to be working great. Best ROM out there.

100% the best JB I've used thus far. Crazy smooth and responsive.

[ROM] [MIUI JB] Fully working

MIUI 2.10.12 ported from MIUI Passion.
I spent a fair lot of time trying to find the best MIUI so suit our HTC. And trying different methods for diffing and mods, from 2.9.21 til 3.1.11, porting from crespo, maguro, passion, P500 etc. This is the only version i could get to have most of the features working.
Since i don't ask for any contribution or donation, so for whoever is not happy with it, don't use but don't criticize my work trying to find reasons why not to use it.
A thanks is enough if think it worth.
If you want to change it, modified it, and so on, do it, no permission needed.
I'm not a full (probably not even partly) developer so i won't be able to answer to your questions on a daily basis.
Use it at your own risk
Flashing instructions:
Wipe Data
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik
Install
Reboot
Working:
- Everyrthing that works in CM10 - on top headset icon works too
- themes, lockscreen and all that
Not Working:
- torch, use from store
- you may find, i didn't yet
Hints:
- If have issues turning wifi on, put it in Airplane mode, try turning on then reboot
- if laggy long press home button to clear memory
- CPU control via toolbox app

Hi, on MIUI all apps are on the screen(s), no apps menu. T'hat's how MIUI works (if this is what you asked for). You can put icons on top of each other and this will create a folder icon with all apps you want to group and you can name it i.e apps. When installing a new app, an icon on the screen will be created automatically
If you ask about managing apps, it is in settings like usual (choose full settings to display, not common settings)

This one is better, by quite a bit. It's way more usable. I've noticed better battery life and faster keyboard input as compared to zeubea's CM10...
no bugs so far, i'll report if i find any. (apart form the system space which is next to empty)

it runs very smoothly
but how can we get 512MB RAM???? and we can't have enough free ram.. just around 30mb?

Hey thanks for this great rom. I have asked a friend to try this rom out since she has a htc legend and I don't. She is very happy with the rom but she reported back two problems.
1. wifi does not turn on (this began to happen right after she setup an APN for her gprs network) (also she tried putting the phone in airplane mode.. turning the wifi on and then rebooting.. didnt work)
2. vpn doesnt seem to be working anymore. is this the case for everyone else also?
thanks again for your hard work mate

Hi,
Yes, the memory shown under "About phone", "RAM and "Total" is wrong. The "Available" figure is accurate for both internal and SD card. These totals are coming from ported

Is there a fix for the wifi issue?

Everything indeed works.Great rom.
Lockscreen will be laggy if not changed to one without spectrum. Rest seems to work good, if not better than on other roms. Testing battery life atm.

FAQ:
[Q] Pons, why are you compiling your own? Why don't we get official CM10.1 goodness?
[A] Well, now, why don't you take a gander at this: CyanogenMod: CM 9+, N1 (and other S1 SoC)
[Q] Gee, Pons, this here looks fun. How do I compile it myself?
[A] Here ya go, lil guy. Just follow these instructions: How to Compile CM10.1 for the Inc (if you encounter any issues using this to compile, please report here so I can troubleshoot and update if need be)
[Q] Why did you disappear?
[A] Long story short, my computer broke right before I went on a business trip. Now I'm stuck on a side of mountain, but only have a 256kbps internet, which has a lot of filters on it (I actually can't download from Goo.im; I have to ssh into my profile to download.)
[Q] Well, that doesn't sound pleasant. Are you back for good?
[A] Maybe, maybe not. Some good people are allowing me to use their build box, so that's how I'm maintaining right now. I'll keep it up, till I get moved again, or they decide to revoke my access.
[Q] Oh. That's cool. Onto what really matters: how often are you going to update?
[A] Will shoot for weekly, or bi-weekly (if major changes come out). The internet is painfully slow, and I don't want to abuse the build bot access I was given. Or until I move or get revoked access.
Credits/Thanks​
All credit goes to Cyanogen and the rest of the CM team, and especially our HTC Incredible maintainers, as listed by the CyanogenMod site: jistone (aka CUViper/This Guy), slayher, and of course, koush. Of course, don't forget about the Evervolv team, who have given our outdated qsd8k device a lot of love, despite being dropped by CM.
In addition, tiny4579 for his incredikernel, and for helping with my builds while I'm away.
For some reason, I have received several requests to put a donation link in my profile. You can always donate to the CyanogenMod project or the Evervolv project, but if you feel you HAVE to donate to me, I've put a link in my profile, and all donations will go towards upgrading my computer, so I can stay on top of this for CM10.2/11/and beyond.
Footnote: This thread is a WIP. I will probably restructure it and try to make it look pretty, and I might add a Q&A thread, depending on how many inane and repetitive questions I get that take away from development. I also didn't include any Launcher screen shots, since that is the easiest thing to change and theme. And I see that people have already tried the ROM, since I have 4 downloads so far, and 1 was me. Thoughts/problems?

Reserved....
Particularly let me know if there are any crippling bugs (or bugs period) that differ from what is listed as the known issues, and from tiny's.
Also, any issues with the embedded Superuser? It has had minimal testing, despite being put together by a ninja coder, Koush, and that is one reason it has not made it into CM10.1 Nightlys.

Great to have you back Pons. I'm having zero issues the new su. It seems to boot a little faster.

It should boot a tiny bit faster, as well as su access being better/quicker. It's now an integrated part of Settings, as opposed to a separate app.
Bear in mind that Superuser is still a work in progess. Superuser and binary itself have 0 issues (that I can tell) as far as granting, prompting, denying, etc, but the app needs a little UX work. For instance, go into Settings > Superuser. Click the little icon at the very bottom, this opens up the log. Click the icon in the bottom left, and this does nothing. Koush is aware of these issues, and will correct them when he gets around to it. I'm more interested in if it (or Settings) FC, or if something is not getting root.
A user said:
there seems to be some UX inconsistency in the app. When i click on the log button it brings me into the log, which is fine. However, the button immediately becomes redundant in that said screen. It has no function whatsoever.
Also, i thought there should be a back function tied to the icon so that i can return to the main screen... no?

Is there a way someone could work on the offline voice to text ? Is this going to replace tinys cm10.1 ROM ? Nice work!

Completely wiped phone, EMMC, SD. Took the opportunity to install TWRP, and had a blast playing around with it (used your .zip from that thread). Installed this ROM and Tiny's 2/7/13 GAPPS.
I'm not sure what issues will pop up from the flash-over crowd, but clean install was a flawless process. You guys keep giving me reasons to carry this phone. Well played, by everyone involved.

If you make enough room in the system partition and copy the correct libraries into the gapps zip before flashing offline dictation should work. It does on Tiny's, at least.
Out of curiosity, is there about significant difference between this and Tiny's? Pretty much just superuser?

I plan on getting to that in about a week or so, time depending.

As far as the end user is concerned? There's that and the status bar battery mod, one of my favorite tweaks since my CM7 days. I don't know exactly what tiny throws in his, but I put in a couple of security hardening picks that most/all users won't notice or feel.

Probably not. Tiny and I generally work together to make CM10.1 better for the Inc. I opened this thread because I can compile and tweak stuff when tiny's busy, but I can't really test it myself. I don't have data, wifi, or gps on my phone where I'm at, and it takes me 3-5 hours to download each ROM. So I opened this to get a wider range of testers.

Good to have you back. Did you get faster internet?

Nope, hence my 3-5 hour download of a 114 mb ROM.

It works if you put the files into place, just like on Tiny's ROM. I modified Tiny's gapps, removed some stuff I didn't want and added in the offline files. I still have to delete some stuff from the ROM to make room for the offline files, so my gapss aren't share-worthy. But it works for me.

No issues here. I did wipe /system (due to the way I install gapps with offlinevoice to text files) and cache (for good measure) before installing, but I didn't wipe any data.

Never really used it. From what I remember, though, it's a kernel tweak that chad put in. Tiny forked his tree, so unless tiny reverted the commit (which I doubt), it should still be in there (internet is way too slow for me to go digging around randomly). As for how to verify it's working, I completely forget. I'm vaguely sure a way does exist beyond watching it charge quickly, but can't remember.

Fastcharge is definitely an option in the kernel that ships with the ROM. It's off by default but the free incredicontrol can enable it. The only thing it does is enable the full charge speed for USB connections which is risky if it comes from a PC as the PC USB ports are only designed for 500mah of current. I've done it safely and i actually have fastcharge USB on by default on my inc but I still have to throw out the warning to be careful.
As far as verifying there are a few ways:
1. Check the value of /sys/kernel/fast_charge/fast_charge_usb. It's 1 for on and 0 for off.
2. Monitor mA current on USB charging and if it's over 500 mA then fast charge USB is working.
3. Check the kernel log in terminal ater plugging the phone into a USB connection, it should report switch charger (Fast) at the bottom.
su
dmesg | grep "Switch charger"

I am a big fan of fastcharge. Although battery health could be a factor, I am suspicious that both fastcharge and DSP manager have gone the way of budweiser served in Utah. My power supply used to get scorching hot and I could get a green light from empty in about 2 hours on the 3500 battery. Now I use the stock battery and it takes at least about 3 hours or longer to get it charged. DSP Manager still works, is much more subtle. I have had to resort to using a second eq app alongside DSP Manager to get levels right.

Work is ramping up, and so is school. No time to actually do more than minor tinkering, so thread is more or less redundant of tiny's. On that note, closed. I'll still try to push out weekly builds (tiny said I could post in his thread whenever I had a build), but no promises.

Great work man!

Works beautifully, and it seems much faster than CM11.
I may have done something wrong though; I seem to have lost root access somehow.
Edit: Never mind, somehow a reboot fixed that.

Running great so far. Still searching how to disable the volume key flip on rotate though. Haven't found any bugs yet!

Had it running. Root was all messed up and it kept erroring when I went to Superuser menu to fix it like OP. Now when I reinstall the ROM from my SD card I get Status 7 failure. Some symlinks failed.
*disregard* gotta wipe data/factory reset to make it work. Not just manually format sys data cache. Oh well... Maybe root will work this time....
Sent from my Optimus G Pro using Tapatalk

To get root access working you must go to developer options and under "Root access" select "Apps and ADB" That will make superuser functional.
Bug/Issue: 1. Settings crashes when going into Superuser and selecting settings. 2. GPS does not work. I couldn't get mapmyrun to get a gps signal.
EDIT* 3. Stock browser does not work well. When browsing a site such as google search there are black squares covering the screen. It happens as well with the google search app from playstore.
Overall, it works well

I can confirm. GPS does not work.

Looks like I jacked up superuser and GPS merging performance settings. I'll try fixing them next time.

I was about to confirm, but saw this so will look forward to the next version.
One thing I noticed when I tried enabling the swap file with Ram Manager Free (I found that giving this phone 256MB of swap file on kernels that support it makes it work MUCH better with heavy multitasking). It seemed to enable in the app, but when I checked the memory it showed only 64MB instead of 256MB. I checked and ZRAM was not enabled. Any idea where that 64MB came from?
I'm going to like this ROM once these few issues get fixed. It's a lot like the AOIP ROM I have been using for a while.
Which reminds me, one thing that is missing that I really liked was the ability to adjust the hard buttons back light. I like to have it set so it is on whenever the screen is on. Really disliked the auto turn-off after a few seconds even while the screen is still on. Would it be possible to add the settings options like AOIP and CM ROMs have?

Sweet. Because minus those two things. I'm loving the slim Roms on the exhibit. Its so fast!

4.6 has working superuser and GPS should work. Try performance control with 4.6 if 4.8 is inconveniencing.

I too am thrilled to note the appearance of yet another choice in the Exhibit ROM stable.
Very reassuring to me that this ROM presents no issues FC-ing out-of-the-box. Factory reset works, too. First time in quite a while that installation on my phone needed no extra steps.
I am trying the 4.6 version to see if that helps with GPS and the other issue.

Will you let me know if gps works for you with 4.6? I've fixed superuser fc, but uncertain if performance settings caused gps conflict.

Yes, I'll let you know ASAP.
Someone else may beat me to the punch, though; I won't get back to my wifi until Tuesday.
Currently back on Dark CM. I did however make a Nandroid of Slim.
I was so impatient to fully test Slim, I manually installed most of my apps from the Play store.
You can't restore Ti backups without having root access. I thought maybe you could restore even if you couldn't create backups, but nope.
Weird as it might sound I was interested in using my non-rooted phone for a while. It's been so long since I used a non-rooted device, I wanted to see the limitations imposed.

Tested GPS on GMaps and Map Quest and I can confirm that GPS is working in 4.6.
EDIT: My mistake, @danny8 is correct. GPS is not working in 4.6. nor is it working in 4.9. When I switched to "device only", GPS did not work at all.
One bug I did want to mention is that I am receiving fc's when trying to access SlimCenter.

I am also receiving these big black squares when using stock browser or Google Search in 4.6.

Well, I installed 4.6 test bed by dirty flashing on top of my setup of the original SlimKat release.
I cannot confirm GPS is working for me. (Deleted.) Update: Rebooted restored my voice service. Still messing with GPS which is not working
I confirm SU is working. Ti Backup allows me to restore apps.
I may play with this some more. Will update here if anything noteworthy pops. Otherwise rolling back to DarkCM.
