mysterious ICS lockup solved - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

I know there are very few inc2s out there who couldn't unlock the phone with only ICS rom.
Just incase you guys stopped trying to get ics work on your inc2...
I think the problem was solved with new kernel from aeroevan.

Thanks for the lead! I'll give it a shot. Is it his v9 kernel, and on what rom/what installation procedures? What were you running before you flashed, which recovery and how did you wipe? Sorry to bombard you with questions, just trying to minimize variables.
Also, could anyone explain how to merge a kernel into whatever rom I'm about to flash so it's included from the get-go?

Yeah, it was v9 kernel.
I'm not sure which rom i was running... I was trying so many roms.. i kinda lost track.. it was one of sense 3.5 roms tho. I am using 5.0.2.0 recovery and I did full wipe.
Let me know if it solved problem for your device as well

I just tried and it still doesn't work for me. Steps I took. (hopefully I did something wrong)
Used 4EXT
factory reset
format all partitions (except sdcard)
install aero 4-7 rom
install v9 kernal
rebooted
I use MikRunny v1.01 as my daily.

Same. I tried the latest of both l AOKP and CM9 to no avail. It's alright though, I imagine a leak is close... I can feel it.

Damn.. i guess i got lucky with this one...
hopefully, the problem gets solved for all of us (

I just tried [ROM][21 Apr]SenseMOD FlashONE v1.1 [AROMA][Primadonna Kernel]
and it worked. So I don't know what is different under the hood from the Aero builts but maybe this is a start to figuring out what is going on.

So follow up to my last post. I decided to try aero's built. I did a factory reset and then flashed aero's 4-7 build (didn't have the 4-20 built on the sd card and usb wasn't working with the other rom. I then flashed the gapps 3-17 and this time it worked. Going to flash the 4-20 build over top right now and see.

[Q] Multiboot MIUI/CM9 on Defy

I want to have these rom on my defy, but... how i can do this?
I currently have the CM9 as main rom ( i have flash the build of 13 December 2011, from here: http://defy-cm.net/defy-cm9-nightly/ ).
Now i want the last MIUI, with multiboot.
So what i need to do?
Please, response me
Have you followed these instructions for installing multiboot? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364659)

Yes, but on 2nd-boot i get stuck on M Logo. And on 2nd-init all works good.
So, i can use my daily ROM (CM9), but i can' t use the second rom (MIUI, with Multiboot)
So... what i need to do???????????????????????
Which CM9 rom are you using? Epsylon's one or Quarx's one?
If you're using epsylon's one, it won't probably boot since it uses gingerbread kernel whereas miui uses froyo kernel.
Try quarx version instead.
Wrong kernel

Hi remix,
the problem is probably due to wrong kernel. CM9 13th December uses the GB kernel, while MIUI still uses froyo kernel.
Here you can find both CM7 and CM9 kernels: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20148046&highlight=cm7+kernel#post20148046
If you want to do multiboot between ROMs that are based on different kernels, you'll have to flash the kernel, every time you want to use one or the other.

Exactly carlo93. That's why I waited for a froyo based CM9 before multibooting it.
I use WaikIUI (GB2.1.20) as base ROM, and Quarx CM9 build as secondary, and everything works smoothly.
Another suggestions. Never wipe data on the latest recovery; this erases android-secure folder in the sdcard (damaging your base ROM). Instead you can simply start from fresh fsimages.
info:
primary (nandroid) - CM9 111213 --> GBread/CM9 kernel
virtual (sdcard) - Miui --> Froyo/CM7 kernel
Boot to virtual:
- boot to 'Stable Recovery'
- flash 'CM7-kernel'
- reboot --> boot --> 2nd boot
Boot back to primary:
- boot to 'Stable Recovery'
- flash 'CM9-kernel'
- reboot
hope this helps

delete thread please.

edit: nvm delete thread.
JellyBean isn't fully stable on our DHD/I4G just yet. There are always going to be some issues because HTC didn't give us a full 3.0 kernel for ICS. That could be the reason you are experiencing some lag. Kernels could also help you, try the KangBang performance kernel, although the kernel is leaning towards performance, so it could cause instability
I bought the xda app. Problem?
...
I can't link to the kernel (cause I'm lazy and on the xda app). But when you install a kernel wipe your cache and Dalvik Cache and then flash. That's the proper way of flashing a kernel

sullyy94 said:
Hey thanks for the reply, yeah i successfully installed the stable and performance kernel from this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1931386
But the gaming performance still lags compared to 2.3.5. I guess its due to not being fully stable yet.
I had an idea, what if i flash the stock 2.3.5 kernel? Would i get stock performance back or not?

You'll ruin your phone. A 2.3.X kernel I'd meant for that specific version of Android. If you mix versions (e.g. a Gingerbread kernel with a Jelly Bean ROM) you'll most likely get bootloops and your phone. At worst you'll brick your phone. Don't ever mix kernel versions. Also don't flash a Sense kernel on a AOSP/AOKP/CyanogenMod based ROM (or vice versa), you'll also have a phone that won't boot.

sullyy94 said:
Hey, thanks for the reply. Yeah I was guessing it had something to do with the kernel. I tried a kernel yesterday not sure which one it was from memory, but when I put the kernel zip onto the phone and installed it through recovery it said install complete. But when I rebooted the phone it gets stuck on a black screen. I can't do anything else unless I take the battery out. I was wondering if anyone can give me a link to the kangbang kernel and instructions in how to install properly if the recovery mode isn't the right way, even though it said kernel updated successfuly. Thanks!

The only compatible alternative kernel for JB is the KangBang (at least that i know of). If you flashed another one, that might be why it booted to a black screen.

I'm thinking test your ROM, but whats is the kernel included in the zip file?
Lupus v11? 3.X Kernel?
The main post said dont work JB Camera (4.2.2). There is other camera app included in ROM (CM camera 4.1.2 perhaps) or we must install other third party camera app.

Hey I flashed the inkludet kernel and did a full wipe and installed the ROM. The Rom boots but then the Setup Wizard does not respond and I cant set upp my phone. A tested this tvice and then re downloadet the rom but got the same results.Is it only me or are others having the same problem Im comming from a nother JB 4.2.2. rom if that helps.

Others seem to be having no problems. Perhaps its something to do with gapps. I'm assuming you used full gapps. Try the mini or light version of gapps. So long as u done your full wipes I can't see any other reason. Maybe try flash ROM let it boot then go back to recovery and flash gapps.
Edit - OK so apparently light gapps just causes FC'ing I'll link to other gapps when I'm home.
i flashed this ROM with full Gapps in Xperia Arc S, and it's working really fine, until now had twice random reboots, but that's not really a problem to me.
other than that the ROM is awesome. :good:
Q: is it okay if i use Lupus JBv11 Kernel? (qurrently using kernel included in ROM)
thanks in advance

See I'm pretty sure its the kernel giving random reboots. But with LuPuS or Fusion kernel, WiFi and Bluetooth will not work on 4.2.

Hi,
May I also post on the Pro version here? There is no seperate thread for it.
It's my first attempt on a custom rom after using stock ICS. Unfortunately, I found it to be very unstable
My first attempt was Lupus/v21, now I'm on Fusion/v22. Both seem to be highly unstable. Just using apps is normally fine, but a few things seem to provoke lockups including unlocking the screen, listening to music and using the camera.
I did a full wipe before installing (system, cache, dalvik cache, data), I even tried the permissions fix.
Otherwise it seems a great rom, perfect feature set and very fast, but the unstability makes it unusable for me

Yes u can post here also. Comparing any 4.2 ROM to STOCK ICS, stock ICS would be the winner in terms of stability. 4.1 is the best if you want JB IMO. But 4.2 and especially PAC 4.2 has a lot more features, customization amongst other things. It doesn't matter on the kernel its going to be the same. This is why FXP stopped developing after CM10 for the XPERIA 2011 line-up. It will never be 100% stable as will any 4.2 ROM for Xperia 2011.
I don't know what calls you stabillity, but 4.1 is very stable, almost as 4.0. 4.2 isn't stable specially with 3.x kernels, but 4.1 is perfect. And FXP stop the development for 2011 line becase they have to develop for a lot of devices, i think.

I said 4.1 is stable. And no they stopped because without a stable 3.x kernel it would be impossible for a stable 4.2 J. There was no 3.x kernel for 2011 device back then, but even still they knew if there was a 3.x kernel it would need a lot of work to get stable, if it even can.

Hey Everyone! please tell me which is the most stable sense and non sense rom??? Which rom and kernel combination is the best?? I have already checked out the similar threads but most of them are outdated so please help me out thanks
I can't speak for Sense ROMs but I've been running Chillybean's CM10 ROMs for the past few months -- only a few bugs with sound and reboots up until the most recent 20130929 build (CM10.2 / JB 4.3).

All of chillybeans's 4.3 roms that is cm10.2 beanstalk 4.3 don't have working gsm if you want gsm I would recommend Leoposas's Zoe Rom its cm10.1 and runs really great
I saw this thread on how to enable gsm on Verizon mobiles running up to 4.4 but I tired to use it on chillys PacRom 4.3....
I wonder if am doing it all right or does the rom have no gsm support at all
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2394689
well it really all depends if you like sense or if you like aosp or aokp. if you just want a good rom for daily basis id suggest a sense rom. if you're into customization then more than likely you're gonna want to go with aosp or aokp. but with you using gsm those roms are kinda iffy seeing as a lot of them for gsm use are still in the works. if you do want an aosp rom tho id suggest cm7 i do believe for most builds they do have gsm working or you can try the global roms made for gsm or that Zoe rom if you're wanting to be on jellybean. ive got cdma so my options arent as limited. hope this helps in some way.
You should all try Chillybean's fly-CM10.2 its really fast and smooth and has working gsm its 4.3
Yeah its a pretty cool rom. Still having a bit of problems in the cm source tho like with screenshots and torch but its definitely worth check out.
---------- Post added at 11:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:32 PM ----------
And the thing with the gsm patch even tho it says it will enable gsm on verizon cdma phones doesnt mean it will work on all devices and patches dont always fix the problem if its deeper upstream related. Hope this helps.
Downloaded and flashed chillys cm10.2 minus the screenshot problem, absence of nav bar, buggy status bar when using xposed tinted status bar....its an awesome smooth ROM, a nic bream from the constant reboots of the 4.2 ROMs.
Thanks for the info
I've tried all of Chilly's ROMs, and the most stable for me is 10.2 (4.2.2) Slim Bean. All of the others eventually slow down and require frequent reboots. At this point, I don't know if it's something in the rom, or the B-Team kernel, but I think I've settled into SlimBean with the "stock" Chilly-evervolv kernel. It's the fastest/snappiest, and hopefully stays that way.
The only thing I'm missing is the CM Voice+ app.
I'm not sure which post I found it in, but this stock rom minus most Verizon crud is called
6.01.605.05_VZW__OTA-stripped-odex.zip
It's stabled but not "new".

What do you mean by the "stock" chilly-evervolv kernel? I've been searching for a bit and can't find it. I've had the same issue with the slowdowns and I'd like to give this one more shot before reverting back to the sense roms.

"Stock" in this case means the kernel that comes with Chilly's 10.2 slim bean, as opposed to a kernel like B-team that you have to download and flash separately.

Need stable fast clean ROM/Kernel

Hi xda,
I'm the kind of guy that just wants something tried, tested and true. I rooted and flashed my phone when I first got it to Jedi Mind Trick v6 which was new back then. My Kernel is 3.0.41-T989-ICS-faux123-008
But as of recently I've been experiencing lots of freezing and random reboots. It's about time I get a new Rom and maybe Kernel if necessary.
I know there are a bunch out there and I simply want a stable version of a ROM that's clean, simple and fast, and a Kernel that optimizes battery life I guess. No experimental nightly test builds and what not cause very likely this may be my last upgrade before I decide I'm scrapping this phone. This is basically a last chance upgrade to see if I can still push out another year on this phone.
What are the top few choices/combinations of rom/kernel you guys would recommend?
If I remember the process correctly, I need to backup everything on titanium backup, use some darkwipe thing to clear everything, then flash the new rom, then google now in that development mode right? It's been so long, let me know if the process is made easier or something now lol
Thanks!
My wife uses cm 10.1.2 it's stable, fast, everything works. Wipe from custom recovery, flash cm, flash gapps, then factory reset.
The most stable ROM for the t989 is stock 4.1.2 or a stock touchwiz based ROM. No doubt.
Otherwise, backup first, and flash a few and see.
Everyone's opinions will vary. So find out what's best for you!!
---------- Post added at 10:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:35 PM ----------
And please....read the rom flashing instructions and entire opening posts carefully and follow them exactly.
No, don't use Darkside wipes....they are outdated.
^ This. Plus, I tend to avoid any where the first few pages, or the last few pages are all "IT DOESN'T WORK!" kinds of posts. Keep in mind, how you use your phone will change your experience vs another members. Happy Flashing!
