I couldn't find anything on XDA about the issue either. Also, her battery is rapidly draining and the phone is really hot since I went up to the nightly, so I'm going back to 7.0.3 stable.

ProjektorBoy posted:Maybe I'm just completely paranoid about the process of swapping ROMs. While you can tell ROM Manager to reboot into recovery, its automated option to install a different ROM doesn't feel right to me. I want to ensure that all requisite wipes have been done before a new ROM is flashed in. You're being paranoid. Every ROM Manager command is a recovery command. You even see them being done. You're OG enough to be comfortable with recovery operation so that's fine but i assure you ROM Manager is very convenient and reliable. Its even got options for multiple zip flashes in a single go.

It looks like the version of Clockwork on the market is old though, so that may be it.

Hmm yup, that's exactly what I've been doing, with not one but two NC's now. The only other idea I can come up with is maybe it's an issue with my MicroSD card (running CM7 off the card is like a 10 second lag whenever it writes a file) or an issue with the NC being that new "Blue Dot" partitioning scheme but that's not supposed to be a problem. I'll try with a "quality" SD card and see what happens.

It would be my recomendation as well, also it seems I ran across a script on xda where you could easy peasy one step flash back to stock 1.2 with clockwork intact or stock out of the box, if that was your concern.

Sandisk seems to have the greatest success with Nooks, (fwiw internal memory on PCB is sandisk) however i'm using PNY 8gig class 6 ($14 on sale woohoo!) without problems. Format your card using Windows, if no joy grab a Sandisk card, if your in a hurry and in the US Fred Meyer carries Sandisk. This is the method I used to get CM nightlys on the emmc (blue dot), super simple worked the first time without any problems whatsoever, took about 10 minutes. Also I would recommend you leave the internal partitions alone even though you'll have 1gig of unusable space, your life will be so much better in the event you have to flash back to stock. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1030227 I realize there's alot of hate around here for xda, but if you can wade through the crap there is lots of vauable info, and pretty much any problem you might have has already been figured out!

So I've been having a minor annoyance that's gotten more annoying in the past week: screen sensitivity. Summary: screen sensitivity is all hosed up, Evo 4g, CM7/MIUI, hardware issue? I've got an Evo 4G that I picked up just over a year ago and occasionally the lock screen would seize up or a touch wouldn't register but now it's gotten ridiculous. When I type the keyboard only registers about 3 key presses every 2 seconds and Swype will segment often enough to make nonsense paragraphs when the trail isn't getting stuck on the right hand side between P and backspace. The lock screen will gently caress up and other presses don't register well/at all most of the time now too, mostly occurring on the right side of the screen. I'm concerned that it's more of a hardware issue since this happens both in MIUI and CM7.1 RC-1 and the tiny, tiny chip in the corner will make Sprint squawk about "user damage" and "insurance not covering it" or "$100 deductible" but I know original Evos had screen issues from day 1. Anyone have any ideas?

I dunno about CM7 but partial wake usage doesn't work on most gingerbread builds afaik. I found a program called betterbatterystats on xda which shows partial wakelocks and has helped enormously, it's now available on the market but there's probably still a free version on the forums somewhere.

Where is the usability check? Not sure about your other questions, but I believe the calibration is so the keyboard can adapt to your typing style (i.e. if you tend to hit above the space bar, it will invisibly increase the "hit zone" for the space bar upwards) rather than any kind of hardware calibration. It doesn't apply to anything other than the HTC Sense keyboard.

Welp, finally figured out the Nook. gently caress PNY. Their lovely MicroSD cards, the only brand sold in Best Buy for some reason, are to blame for failing to flash the NC correctly. I used a SanDisk brand 1gb and it went off fine.

I think it's the gingersense roms that break spare parts on the inc. I did run cm7 for a little when it was just rolling out gingerbread but don't recall if it worked there, probably though. If I try using "spare parts plus" from the market instead of FCing it spits out an error saying "Could not find battery stats activity in your rom!" so I think it just isn't supported. I'll try and find that "betterbatterystats" on xda that was mentioned though. e: of course, it's a paid app and doesn't show up on the market for me. e2: grabbed it off the market site. baram. fucked around with this message at 04:23 on Sep 7, 2011 |

Just do a full nandroid backup, wipe everything, flash the MIUI image, and dick around for a bit getting blue balls cause it looks and feels so much better than Sense. You'll probably have to battery pull and Power+Vol Down to get back into recovery mode to flash back to your daily driver rom; reboot in MIUI didn't work for me.

OK, so I finally decide to give MIUI a try on my Inspire instead of just upgrading to the latest Virtuous Unity. Installation goes fine and the ROM itself looks very nice. Cool, I think to myself, time to start restoring things with Titanium Backup! Only due to MIUI's lack of an app drawer I can't actually find the drat thing. I reinstalled it from the Market, and I can go into the program management area of my settings menu and see that the program exists and is installed, but I can't figure out how to actually run the drat thing... Aaaand as I'm typing this I figure it out So now my question becomes, is it normal to have to install something from the market, then browse to the APK through the File Explorer and install it again to get it to show up on the desktop? I want to give MIUI a fair shake before running back to my nice familiar Sense 3.0 ROMs and I'm wondering if I did something incorrectly here.

People still using the HTC Incredible: can you get an app such as Battery Monitor and tell me what kind of mA drain you're typically seeing? I've got an app polling every minute and I never seem to see it draining <300mA. Thought it was just related to a rogue app or Sense 2.1/3.0 Hybrid rom with a stock kernel but I switched back to CM7 and MIUI for a little this past week and I'm seeing the same terrible battery life. Wondering if maybe my batteries are all shot or if there may be something wrong with the device, because it's been doing this for awhile. I don't think it's the Battery Monitor app from polling despite the frequency, because my terrible battery life lead to me getting that. Everything else that syncs is set to either the largest gap, typically once a day, or set to be completely manual.

Considering there are rock-solid ROMs out there that greatly enhance functionality with absolutely no downside it's really a no-brainer. poo poo even if you go to the last CM6 version it's better than remaining on stock.
