ICS Roms for the Incredible?

[usn.mustanger]

Oh, and if you do install this ROM, do yourself a favor and install Chrome for Android. Not feature complete by any means, but already easily in the running for best browser on Android. It's that good.

Well I've got the rom loaded up, haven't done a whole lot with it but so far it seems to be a lot more responsive than kushdeck's ICS. It seems to be a bit of a bridge between it and evervolv(I think?). I'm looking forward to panorama mode working, I actually had a rom that managed it but there was a definite lack in stability. Thanks for the recommendation I'll probably drop another post here with what I'm thinking after some actual use.

Because of this thread I learned of and installed the AOKP ICS for dinc rom. I had been patiently waiting for MIUI V4 or Cyanogen Mod 9 or the kushdeck alpha 5 to mature enough to be ready for daily use.

This rom is solid enough that I will continue using it. I did have one freeze up while bouncing in and out of the ROM Control settings menu, but haven't been able to cause it again. Note, the very first boot up was really slow. I was fairly certain I was stuck in a boot loop on the Kang unicorn splash screen, but just as I was losing patience it finally woke up.

One feature I was really looking forward to was support for USB OTG. I have an OTG adapter cable that ends in a female USB type A port like what is on all laptops. I plugged it into my phone and attached a powered USB 2.0 hub. I tried connecting a few different devices to the hub (mouse, keyboard and a SANSA Clip mp3 player), but none caused any response on the phone. Are there any menu settings I need to make this work? Or device driver modules to load? Any thoughts at all on how to make this work will be much appreciated.

Hrm, you got me. I don't have any OTG adapters, and I'm not too savvy on the backend of things w.r.t. OTG.

And as an update to my DInc AOKP experience, so far, flawless, although I have to admit that I haven't had a chance to put it through it's paces yet, as it's more or less a toy at this point (replaced by my GNex, so it doesn't even get phone service), and I've been hella busy with my thesis. But again, my initial impressions are that it's pretty solid, and most likely useable as a daily driver. (YMMV. I take no responsibility if this ROM ends up causing your DInc to spontaneously combust, grow appendages, or pursue world domination. )

tl;dr: AOKP ICS ROM is, so far, very solid on the DInc, and, I believe, suitable for use a daily driver.

Well I'm really liking the rom, the camera is very snappy and responsive and the gallery works very well. What I am noticing is that the battery tends to drain very quickly. Other than that I am enjoying it.

So what are the bugs that are still left? Is it beyond the stage of experimental to where I can use it for "daily driving"?


UPDATE - flashed ICS. fairly stable. UI is pretty cool. gonna take some getting used to. BUT, I get a FC every time I try to access the clock. My alarm didnt go off this morning becasue of it. I cant find the video icon to add to my desktop. I was able to view video by finding the file through Astro but it was VERY glichy. Not smooth at all. It also has weird bars at the top and bottom when viewing video that is mirroring a portion of the video. Email FC's about 35% of the time. I have sent more FC reports in the past 12hrs than I ever have. This may be a stupid question but are builds 22-24 more stable than build 25? I am thinking about flashing back to GB.

WOW WHAT A PIECE OF CRAP ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !


I installed this 7 hours ago and it has been nothing but a hassle. Gallery crashes everytime you try to open it and will freeze up the phone. Soft touch buttons loose their illumination constantly and the only fix is to go in and manually adjust the screen brightness, then they light up again. Also there is no haptic feel for any of the soft touch buttons at all... I am using milestone 5 and gapps 20120429...

It will find no pictures on your sdcard or rintones/notifications either.... I tried to move them to system/media where the installed ones are but they still don't appear...... not worth the aggrivation ! ! !
My best advice..... DON"T USE THIS ! ! ! ! ! !

OK tried it again with Build 36 and so far all is well.... Just wish I could find some themes for the incredible for it.....

Glad to hear you're able to flash it Fudsey. AOKP is a nice ROM.
