Stuck In CM& Bootloop - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

Just rooted my DINC2. Successfully installed Revolutionary bootloader (no problem installing with 2.3.3) Although CMW said it "installed" it wasn't showing up. Flashed a CM7 zip as well as gapps zip from my SD card (both successful). When I tried to reboot I'm stuck in a CM7 boot loop. Pulled battery several times, No success. Any help, suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

pull battery hold volume down and power. when the bootloader shows up choose recovery then wipe everything in recovery and reflash a ROM. reboot then install gapps

Thank you. That's exactly what I did and I'm up and running again. Just looking for a nice CM7 theme now.

vivid and mixer are my two favorite themes

Search for the Steel blue theme on xda. it's gotta be the best theme for cm7 IMO. There is a free version on xda but there's a paid version in the market that is updated now even more. One of the few things in the market that I had to have. If you don't like blue they have pretty much the same theme in a bunch of other colors.

New Inc Recovery [ v3.0.0.5]?

Did anyone flash the new recovery version in rom manager?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I did. Not sure about changes in the coding but the new UI is nice.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I heard it is mainly for 2.3 ROMs and such, is that true? I'm on Magnolia which is 2.2, would I run into any issues?
weird.. i flashed the new recovery through rom manager then booted into recovery but still had 2.5 on there..
Flashed it this afternoon, using CM nightly #32. Using ROM manager to backup etc., would give me errors when it got to recovery. Some error about the sd card mounting I think. It would work fine booting to recovery, just not using ROM manager. Think the nightly update tonight might address the issue. Had to flash back to an earlier recovery to use ROM manager.
Could not install a new rom with it.

Is there a zip to install this new recovery instead of using rom manager? I always remove rom manager from CM7.

It requires some sort of new update script, we use the donut update script so koush is pushing us towards the future with this recovery, it works with any kernel because of it being koush's update script. Some roms might work, ask your favorite developer if it is compatable
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App
Darnit! Flashed it and now I can't install any font packs anymore. I guess it has something to do with the update script. Going back to a previous version if I can figure out how.

I can't either
Running CM 7 nightly #25. Flashed the 3.0.5 and I couldn't boot into Recovery. Just reverted to 2.5.1.2, guess we'll have to wait until something gets patched up in CM.
Worked for me. I like the look.

oh man, i can no longer access recovery. dayum...
i guess i should post some details: updated from 2.7.1.? (2 or 3, whatever) to 3.0.0.5 via free version of rom manager. just happened to have my stock rom loaded at the time.
edit: thx everyone. downloading the zip and reinstalling got me back up and running. yay! thx! i am disappoined, though, that md5 operations still take 15-20 minutes. i was hoping that would be fixed in this release.

Little Help.

I have had my Incredible Rooted for a while now. I am just not wanting to try out some different roms and kernels.. so this morning I flashed to Warm Z Twopointtwo using Clock work Mod and after it loaded up. All my apps would force close on start up. I could not get them to work at all, even after dl'n them again from the market.. what did I do wrong. I have flashed back to my original Rom and every thing is working dine now.. I really wanted to try it out. I like the look of the z roms. Any help would be awesome.

Did you wipe data before flashing the Z rom?
Fixing the permissions.. how so you so that? And I let clock work wipe the data. Is that good enough? Thanks for the help.

Its in rom manager. It can also b done thru clockwork.

When clockwork wiped data, did it also wipe cache?
I thought Rom manager and clockwork were the same thing.. I can't get the app to open once I flash a Rom..
As far as wiping the cache. I checked the box in Rom manager, which I used to install the Rom with, it says wipe data and cache so unless it isn't doing it right. I'm not sure.. thanks again for the help.

You install the ROM in the Recovery menu (black background orange or green lettering - aka Clockwork) NOT from HBOOT, the white background with multicolored text.
Two very different things.
While you are at it, flash Incredibly Reengineered. Fast and amazing battery life.

Themes help??

Can some one post a thread on how to install custom themes and splash screens? I've been searching like crazy , I figured out how to push bootanimations which is great just don't know how to flash custom themes and splash screens. P.s I just need the links ..
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
You flash themes through recovery just like you would a rom - just make sure it's compatible with your phone and rom. Some roms have theming built in so you don't have to flash, ie CM7 and MIUI.
I've never used a splash screen before, but I'm sure installation instructions would be in the thread for the splashscreen.
Or Google.

What Recovery are you using? After it flashes it should send you back to the choose zip screen. Are you sure it's a flashable zip and not an apk for the Theme Chooser that was zipped?

darkhorse is a flashable theme. i think you're doing everything rigt, just back out to the main menu and reboot then.
check the link in my sig for the splash screening. it's a tutorial i made that lets you install any splash using either a manual ruu push or a pc36img.zip ruu. i'll update it soon to include recovery flashing, using edify scripts. just realized ur posting from xda app. lemmie give you the link... edit: here ya go http://tinyurl.com/47xqb4k

Anyone tried the new 5.0 recovery

Has anyone tried the new 5.0 recovery available in rom manager? Any issues?
Sent from my Incredible 2 using XDA App
I was actually wondering the same thing. In fact, I'm curious as to how you even update to the newest version of CWM.
Greatly appreciate anything you guys have to say.
So far so good. I haven't done much with it, but I haven't had any problems.
You can update the recovery with ROM Manager. My only advice is that you check the box to erase the old recovery before flashing the new one. The box to check is in the ROM Manager settings.
Sent from my ADR6350 using xda premium
its fine ive been going haywire flashing with it. no worries guys
I have it too. Just download through Rom Manager. The Text color is actually Cyan instead of orange. I like it.
I just got another update prompt when I opened ROM Manager. I went from 5.0.1.9 to 5.0.2.0, but I'm not sure what they changed.
Yup. Using it fine, and love the new color. Easy to read for an old man.

[Q] where can I get a stable JB 4.1 for CWM T989!

I have been looking all over and my eyes are about ready to have a critical meltdown.
I have a T-Mo T-989 (Hercules) and have been looking for a JB ROM all night and found some shady threads or ROMs that don't work. I dunno, maybe I've installed something wrong, little help here?
Generally the ones that will install get hung up during the initial boot, wtf? Have run across some that wouldn't even install and would abort.
I should say I am using CWM 5.0.2.6... I think, its been so long since I have done anything to this phone so I forget but I know its ither Odin or CWM (or are they both one in the same? x.x ) I've been using Darkside Evolution ICS ROM all this time and would be nice to move up to JB if there is a stable one out there
Have you tried vincom's cm build? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886009 its very stable. Been using it for 9 days now without a single SOD or RR. To get the best results I recommend using TWRP. Just head over to the play store and download GooManager. Open, grant superuser, hit menu, then click on "install open recovery script". Go through the prompts and it will download and install TWRP. The method I use for flashing was: Darkside superwipe, ROM, gapps. (I did not use the super light gapps because the home button doesn't work when I do and it doesn't auto restore my apps)

Hmm, well I got goo manager and its now stuck on the TWRP's boot screen and just reboots after so long of sitting there :/ and its already deleted the rom, so I guess I have to go through the CWM rooting proceeders again?
Well I have managed to get CWM5 back on it and got a working ROM for now but it seems when I do the method you imply it flukes and freezes at the TWRP boot screen. I followed ye the best way possible, maybe there is an alternative way?
I have tried installed Vincom's JB all versions and it comes back as error then aborts install or it installs but sits at initial boot for more than 25min and does nothing I've found that while the warning say give it 10min to boot is generally just a 'just in case' scenario since the T989's processors are considerably powerful.
I have tried to get the ROM onto the phone's internal memory and install from there like Vincom said but the computer won't read the phone for some reason >.<
i would say, to use twrp and download the latest cm10 Here.
i recommend twrp for stable flashing cause there's bugs in latest cwm...

Not entirely true. Contrary to what everyone has been saying, and im not trolling just saying from personal experience - cwr 5.0.2.7 and dark side wipes have yet to give me problems I was on the majority if not all jb roms with no issues other than rr/sod which was before the kernel fix.
I'm a noob and expect that 90% of the people here kno more than I do but I wish someone could explain to me why the scripts and cwr 5027 are suddenly so bad.

CWR 5027 isn't bad at all it's just that using darkside scripts with certain new recoveries has caused some people boot loops and also with the newer recoveries they aren't required since the built in wipe options work just fine.Personally I use the recovery here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1844637
and have had zero issues with it plus it has the darkside scripts built in

I would recommend trying either AOKP OFFICIAL Build 5 (not sure if by time you read this if theres a newer one) or a CM10 Nightly. I've tried tons of different JB roms from 4.1 to 4.1.2 and those work good. Decent battery life without changing too many settings (I'm afraid to change too many things because I've hard bricked my phone before but barely got it replaced under the 20 day full exchange warranty). No random reboots or force closes for me so far. Highly recommend trying them out, very simple to flash.
Been on the official aokp and its amazingly stable better then anything jb rom I tried on the s2 battery is excellent too

Actually... I have CMW6 now the touch one. Does that have something to do with it? The main issue I have with SBean and CM9's JB is eveyrone complains that they can't hear me, that I sound like a robot and the call is badly broken up or that I'm not speaking up like my mic isn't picking up on my voice very well.
Is this a ROM error or a kernel error? rather annoying frankly @[email protected]

Ooooo, wait a tic... I feel like such n00b now...
I kept downloading V1 thinking it was the newest one xD I think the V6 at the way bottom is the newest one. I'll try that for a few days then report back.
Edit: QUESTION - my screen is flickering (just installed SBEAN V6)... is that a bad install or did I have to fix permissions?
That pretty common in most JB rom but it usually goes away after few mins for me. You can go to settings and then developer options then disable hw overlay but you would need to do it on every boot because it won't stick after a reboot.
Btw you should check out official aokp-milestone-1 it not on here but Google aokp and download the one for our phone. Its pretty sick and stable.
