So i rooted my incredible and tried to install a theme from the ROM manager i think it was called and when it went to reboot it just went to a black screen with a white stripe down each side and now i cant get passed that point even if i hit factory restore in the s-off menu thing. i am very new to this stuff so i am an idiot for just jumping in but if anyone has any ideas on what i could do it would be much appreciated. HTC Incredible on 2.2 rooted.
thanks
Turn your phone off then back on normally. I think someone mentioned once that this happens with newer DINCs i may be wrong but i believe that may help

The newer Incredibles have an SLCD screen, the originals have AMOLED screens. From what I understand, they use different display/touch drivers. Not really a "bug" but I'm sure it bugs a lot of people... Did you just recently get it?

Ok new incredible as of the last friday. Unrevoked 3 worked until it hit the rom selection. Rebooted into recovery & thats where I get the black screen with the 2 lines & cant select anything. Pulling the battery will reset it and I'm able to boot but I still cant get the ROM to install.
Any suggestions

Search is your friend. You have a SLCD screen. Since your phone has different hardware, it requires compatible software.

PM'd cause i cant post links cause im still a noob
If you haven't fixed it yet you can search in the Q&A section for black screen and get instructions for a complete restore to the day you got it. The SLCD thing got me too.

This is exactly my problem...then I reflashed with pb31img. Now all it does is turn the charge light on...
How did you get it fixed.
I don't know if my phone is slcd or amoled....almost sure its AMOLED
the way i fixed it is on this thread......http://www.incredibleforum.com/foru...t-after-incredible-boot-screen.html#post56442
a friend of mine has an EVO 4G, hardware 004, it has been working fine until a few weeks ago when his camera showed a BLACK screen when you clicked on the camera app. he was rooted running SPRINT LOVERS 2.2 rom. Well, we couldnt get the camera working so we did a hard reset and flashed MIKROM 3.0... camera was now working great..... TODAY. the camera is showing a black screen again. you dont even get any of the buttons in the camera app but you can press the home screen to get out (no force quit or anything).
any ideas how to fix this without another hard reset?
The best advice is to try another rom, specifically a stock sprint rom. If it still doesn't work, or works sporadically, its likely a hardware problem with the camera itself.
It sounds like a hardware issue to me I had the same problem an had to get it replaced.don't quote me these guys ate pretty smart but I couldn't get mine fixed

Sounds like the camera hardware maybe staring to fail or has become loose from the board next time it goes black try pressing the lens down and see if it tries to work that would indicate loose connection, otherwise the sensor may be failing
Go in to recovery and fix permission's

OK so today we tried pushing down on the camera module.. then started up the phone and guess what.. it works again...
Sounds like the camera sensor is loose on the board, may need to take it on for repair, or if your techsavvy try opening it up and repair it yourself

It fixes permissions for a lot of things like apps folders etc your android phone is a linux based system so in order for things to execute they need to have the correct permissions. For instance something with 777 permissions means it has full read write and execute permission for the owner, group and other here is a calculator for linux permissions just to show you what the different permissions are.

The permissions can sometimes change meaning the app or folder or whatever isn't able to execute because it doesn't have permission to fixing permissions is just supposed to fix that so your things can execute correctly hope this helps

Really 3 posts to answer the same question with 3 of the same answer when we already found the cause of the issue
Funny cause ive been combing the net trying to find a working fix. I've been having the same issue for weeks. Once did the "fix permissions" and it worked. Another time i re-flashed the same ROM then a different ROM and they both worked.
IDK what it is but everytime it works bout an 1/2 hour to 1 hour later its back to the black screen again. I'm stuck guys. I even had a friend of mine extract his HTCcamera.apk from his phone & load it on mine...guess what...worked!!! Hour later.....same crap
Comeon guys lets put our heads together and figure this out!!!
Please post your questions and answers regarding my port here....
UPDATE: 5/24/2012
Won't be doing any work on this for a while. Phone got run over and can't afford a new one right now. Using my SGS4G as a backup until I can get a good price on an s2 or possibly a new S3.
UPDATE 4/5/2012
Good News is I got my phone back from JTAG repair... BAD NEWS is they messed up my usb port. Phone boots and all but I have no way to charge it.. When I plug it in it flashes a warning saying Battery is too hot or too cold, charging has been canceled. Was able to get in download mode and did a wipe to see if maybe it was a firmware issue but it did not help. Went back to download mode to see if I could flash a new boot.img and get this error:
Claiming interface... Failed. Attempting to detach driver...
Claiming interface again... Success
Setting up interface... Success
Beginning session...
Failed to initialise usb communication!
Re-attaching kernel driver...
Now my battery is completely dead so I can't try anything until I can get an external charger if they make one... will update as I can
UPDATE 3-28-12 5:24 p.m. est
For those of you who keep sending me PM's asking to test...
Go to the thread in the Development forum and download it. The Thread was closed but links are still active.
UPDATE #2 3-28-12
I won't be able to work on this for a few days.
Bricked my phone working on a different kernel and modem.
Will send it out for jtag repair and have it back sometime next week hopefully...
Guess I will jump back to the sgs4g forum and work there for a few days.. Have that phone with unbrickable mod...
If anyone knows if unbrickable mod is available for this phone let me know.
I Have no problem tearing it apart and performing the mod.
Update 4/1/12 Turning down in call volume will cut down on in call echo.
Thanks
I would like to apologize in advance for not asking my QA inside of the QA section.
On a side note i was having data issues and I flashed cache and reenterd my APN settings manually and it fixed it
good to hear

You need to flash the superuser zip again in CWM. So long as the thread didn't get deleted in Development, look at the 3rd post, you should find a link there.

I actually had the same question too but no one answered..I ended up restoring my NAND backup of a 2.3.6 ROM, manually forcing it to go to WCDMA only, then re-flashing ICS, which effectively saved the settings. For some reason lol
is there a crt off option anywhere? it's the only thing missing (besides the autorotate, everything else works for me).
Is there a way to get the keyboard to go landscape without auto rotate?

any one has a problem with gallary not working when trying to add picture to a contact in contacts?
can we get the ics threads stickied, just so they stay on the front page to avoid a barrage of 'where do i download ics?' threads? since the threads can't be bumped by posts anymore.

Also having an issue with the gallery. The gallery works fine and I can view the pics, but trying to set a picture as the lockscreen background causes the gallery to freeze and screen to turn black and unresponsive. the capacitive buttons light up, and when I hit the power button it says unfortunately gallery has stopped. I've cleared data/cache, any one else able to reproduce this bug?
I by no means take credit for these but I can confirm they are working for me. I got these from the Skyrocket forums:
To fix the power off/reboot freeze issue do the following:
Make a CWM Nandroid backup of the ICS ROM. Then do a restore of the backup you just made without wiping anything. Reboot and test it out. It worked perfect for me.
Not sure why it works but it must have something to do with the restore scripts being used. They must somehow correct the power off/reboot issue.
To fix the portable hotspot issue do the following:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24134762&postcount=25
This has been tested by me and it works like a charm.

Unfortunately I think the auto-rotate issue is kernel related so we have to wait for a specific kernel for our phones. I downloaded an app from the market "Auto-Rotate Status Bar Switch" and it seems to work pretty well.
ok thanks will try it right now and I leave at 6 am for my job and I have much time for that lolll
That app doesn't help. Still rotates into landscape when I'm in a portrait mode.

Told me tethering is not supported ???
Samsung galaxy s2 almost ics lol
so im using Ravers blackedition rc3, with the ICS theme designed for rc2.
originally, rc3 had the shutdown/restart thing fixed, but flashing the theme broke it.
i tried your method but no luck for me.
im sure this still probably can work for those not using any themes tho
Yea what ROM are you running cause I tried both fixes and no luck
Samsung galaxy s2 almost ics lol
i am trying your method to get tethering to work...i followed your instructions and everything was good up until setting it up...i got to the skyrocket connected part...but when i hit my menu button nothing happens...i dont get the menu to set the SSID and pw
my laptop can pick up the skyrocket signal but it asks for a pw...and i dont know what it is since i didnt set one
edit: found your original thread and read the comments from another user...you have to tap on the word hotspot and then go into that page and then hit menu to configure...thanks!

nvm it seems i have to put my face right next to the top mic like literally and scream at it on those roms for it to pick up anything. which is odd because stock does at a normal distance >.>
