Hey Guys, I have been looking around for a while and I was hoping that someone would happen to know this. I bought an Inc2 for a family member and she is receiving the GB update as we speak (a little irritated that my TB hasn't gotten it yet, but loving BAMF anyway). She is a big Skype'r and I know from the tbolt that it takes 2.3 to make the video to video Skype to work on it. Since it will be on GB, will the hacked Skype work? Does anyone have a link to an Inc2 specific apk?
Thanks!! (maybe she will eventually let me root it too!)

Are you talking about the video chat Skype or what app are you talking about? Skype already works on CM7 with WiFi! The hacked/modded version of Skype that works on 3G does not work on CM7 because is was hacked/modded to work with 2.2 not 2.3 which is what CM7 is!
If you're talking about the Video Chat Skype that's running around here from the HTC Thunderbolt then is not going to be working on the EVO anytime soon! There's plenty of things that need to be done to it, things like getting past Verizon's stupid detection of the device and other things......feel free to contact one of the developers that's working on it and see what YOU can do to help out the process....other then that, you just have to wait bro....this ain't no drive thru service...lol
Last night I installed the NON Rooted version of the leaked Gingerbread Rom.
Everything Seems to works. Signal Reception is way better!!!! I notice it so much more!
Some people said the verizon app kept force closing. Mine did right after install and upgrade. But once I rebooted the phone it never happend again, not once.
Gps works perfectly
Camera perfect
Video perfect
HTC Widgets are now downloadable
SMS /MMS is perfect (before I had some force closes and alot of failed sends, Since install of Gingerbread I havenet had one problem.)
NOT ONE FORCE CLOSE ON ANY APP, this seems like a FINAL BUILD
If you have any questions let me know
Also for twitter lovers the PEEP app by HTC is greatly improved.
I am thinking about flashing it before I get my XTC clip just for ****s and giggles.
There are bugs serious enough in it for verizon to reject it, there is a new build in testing.
I cant find one single bug with it. Ive tried everything. My reception is soooooo much better. In bars and actual call quality. I havent seen one force close in 2 days of use and i have atleast 50 apps installed and tried them all.
Now i cant guarentee its final but boy it does seem so.
If you guys want me to try anything on it let me know.

Has the stock internet browser been updated? I prefer it over the third-party ones, but have found it to slow down under heavy use, especially on forums.
And I guess the obvious, any improvements in battery life? Especially with regular use, no videos or games, just browsing, having sync all enabled, etc.

I dont mind flashing RUU everytime.
As far as other improvments. Well batery life has always been good for me. I get up to 12 hours of use of the phone before it dies. That is great for a smartphone!! I dont play games but im syncing Twitter and 2 email accounts. all pages full pf widgets nd im not stop texting and streaming rhapsody.
Alot of font changes in the rom. Also when you do a factory reset it gives you the option to format SD again. In all honesty this ROM is perfect IN MY EYES!
Guys if this is a sign of whats to come from HTC were in good hands!!!
oh also I notice NO SLOW DOWN or stuttering EVEN WITH LIVE WALLPAPER ON......
Now i prefer sense ...but i can only imagine how much better this phone will be when the devs start dropping some sweet roms!
That is assuming a RUU is available for each update, it isn't always available.

jcase you obviously have alot of experience here,
what is the likelihood that we won't see an official gb ruu? it seems highly ulikely to me that htc wouldn't put it out, or someone couldn't get it out
i'm also in phone limbo till the clip arrives, but flashing ruu to ruu isn't the end of the world as it's been made out to be.
would you care to explain the bugs in this build you've heard about?
I have personally had minimal issues. ( gps icon in top bar doesn't go away ) that's all besides vz app non compatibility

This is great. The only things I don't like about it could easily be worked out I assume. Still back on 3.0 but ill definitely be watching this one.

It's pretty good for 1st release but ill stick with 3.0. Not a huge fan of mysense.
LOL I also thought the same thing about HTC losing their minds when I saw the screen shots before I read your comment lol
How's the free ram lookin?
So Newt, are you going to do any other deving on this ROM, or is it just for others to play with? Tried it out briefly yesterday - different, VERY different I must say, but didn't have the time to really test and went back to my usual ROM. I'll keep an eye on it though.....
I like this one, despite the camera not working, it runs rather well

I agree that it's fresh due to being something different. but to b honest, those white nasty two buttons for phone and apps are just too small and the wrong color, it's very hard to see them with a white/grey background. I miss thee sense rosie. maybe I can theme it in.
I would really like to try this Newt, and appreciate you porting it. Are you going to attempt to fix the camera? Just curious, and no worries if you just tossed it out for people to play with. I always need camera access for my job, just in case a mess falls in my lap.
i might do one more update but i put it out for someone else to build.... i just dont like it sorry guys
If anyone wants to build it here is a little bug list.
Camera not working.
Wifi Hotspot does not work.
MMS is not sending.

OK I don't know what gives, but I couldn't find it on my phone (GB) either either. But here is the work around.
I found it in Android Market on my computer and purchased it there. It made me choose which phone I wanted it installed on, so maybe it makes you pay for each device you have and that is causing us not to find it. As soon as I went to market on my phone, it was installed before I had a chance to hit the search button.
Edit... Ok ... so I have it. Is there a tutorial? I am confused.
I am starting to get it slowly though. Maybe when I get back home and figure things out I will start a post... I am out of battery for now.
well i have v1.0 ... >.>
but they updated so its time to break out ma tools XD
I purchased this app as well, its good but its missing some features the video on youtube showed. I was running the ICS leaked roms and none of them would work/compatible according to the market. I tried the market website and still didnt work, i had to revert to GB from Caulkin to get it after all. My initial impressions are mixed due to it still being a premature relase and not having all the features. So far one update was relased already so it seems like a good thing.
I purchased it and installed it yesterday on CM9. Ended up having to wipe data, and upon going back to the Market to install it, I can't find it anywhere. Dubious indeed.
So I attempted editing the build.prop as many have done to fix issues with the Chrome Beta browser, and still no luck getting this to show up. I liked the launcher while I was using it yesterday, but I'm enjoying CM9 more, so hopefully someone (likely won't be me) can figure out a way to get this to show up.

Its incompatible because its 17.00 fux that stuff ..... 4 maybe 5 bucks for a launcher OK but 17 ...come on I will call ice t at law & order svu , they trying to rape people
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
yep, 17 bucks is wrong for a launcher....
You know, I don't care about the $17 bucks that much...... IF its something I like and want. I wish they would put out a free version that is only good for a few days, something like 3-7 days, so that we could try it out before dropping $17.
I have it but don't really like it getting rid of it

Hello.
I am looking for some help in the coming months with this phone. The phone when released will have gingerbread. I am looking to get either ICS or jellybean on the phone.
Problem is republic wireless uses hybrid calling technology which means it switches over to WiFi when available. RW probably uses files baked into their custom ROM, which is basically cm with clockwork mod, and I need to extract them in hopes of merging them with an ICS or jellybean ROM for this.
Anyone up for this?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
ICS will allow you to use VOIP calls automatically whenever you are connected to the wifi. You just need to fill in the user-pass and sip server address (check the dialer settings). There is no need to install anything.
Republic wireless has an app that seems to handle the WiFi cell handoff and and their own kernel and such. I won't know the exact changes until I get a system dump of the phone.

Thank for your interest in doing this, biggiephat. I hope to be in the next Wave with Republic sometime in August. I'm just a flasher coming from an HTC Incredible. I thought I would try this pay-as-you-go smartphone plan.
I will be posting my experiences to alert other posters to the good, bad and the ugly.
I already have republic wireless its just the optimus s that it came with is horrible. Service is good as far as I can tell

Hey Biggiephat! Glad you're interested in this too! I posted a similar (if not TLDR) post on the CM forums earlier today. Many of the apks and background apps from CM7 had to be modded in order for the RW version to work. The same will be true for us. What makes this more challenging, however, is that ICS/JB is an entirely 'new' system from Gingerbread and prior (most of those were incremental updates)... so it will not be as simple as dumping, copying, praying. This will take some serious effort--but I for one am down for partaking. and I love that this phone can receive calls underwater--bwaahaha!
Let's do this!

Woo! Even so, just to dump the system img and debloat this thing would be my first task. Then move on to compiling an ICS or jb aosp ROM. I'm asking for help because I want to get into the ROM game and I think with some help it could be a great experience. I am a software engineer so I hopefully can pick up on this stuff very easily.
You have the link to that CM post? Interested in reading that on my lunch break today.
