FOR SOURCE CHECKERS
Kernel sources can be found on HTC Dev. Currently neither kernel listed here has been modified beyond their original specifications.
I know you said you followed all the steps. But I think you might have missed a couple of the wipes. Just go back and wipe everything one more time. Sounds dumb but I bet it will work.
Should I still wipe battery stats if I don't do it on a full battery?
Also, I didn't format anything in Mounts and Storage when I flashed your ROM of the previous OTA, is there a reason why I should this time?

I mean honestly you can do what you want, I just did the installation instructions because that is what works for me. If your install fails and you come back and ask why, you'll already know what I'm gonna say next. Everyone who has failed in the past installing my roms have always came back and said they fixed it by going back and doing it again following the instructions.
Okay. I'm still having problems. I triple checked everything and steps and I'm sure I'm doing them right. It boots to the first screen then reboots to recovery. I shall attempt tomorrow.
I'm sorry buddy, I was reading through and realized I missed your question somehow. The PB31IMG.zip has not been made public yet. So once it is, I'll be sure to link it in the OP.
Cool I just flashed the rosie remap for right button from Stock+ and it works.. I did get the GPS nag on reboot.
Edit the never warn for GPS does work.lol
Hey guys, I'm gonna be out of the loop today. House hunting. I'll try to get on tonight. Yall look like your doing good though. Just some minor issues. Help each other out as much as you can. This is just the ota Rom after all
Thanks for this post. (I attempted to PM you on XDA's site, but I don't see a sent message so I don't know if it went through) I'm new to using ROMs, etc and I want to upgrade from my rooted 2.2 to 2.3.4. I've read the posts on the XDA site and am about 80% comfortable with going through with this upgrade. However, I did not find a post with someone in the same situation as mine, so I have a few questions. I rooted my DINC in September 2010 using unrevoked. In November 2010 when the new OTA came out, I avoided it by modifying the "ro.build.fingerprint" number in the build.prop using Root Explorer. I have booted into hboot and it shows "INCREDIBLE XC SHIP S-OFF, HBOOT-0.92.0000." I go into recovery and it shows "ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.5." Can you please verify that these are the steps I should take:
1. Update ClockworkMod Recovery through "ROM Manager" (Is this the right way to update it to 5.X.X.X?)
2. Backup everything through ClockworkMod Recovery (Would you recommend Titanium Backup or is CWM's recovery good enough?)
3. Undo my November 2010 build.prop fingerprint number modification. (Is this necessary?)
4. http:// forum.xda-de...&pos tcount=222 <-- Follow steps 4 and 5 from that post
5. Re-download all my apps and contacts, etc (Would ClockworkMod Recovery be able to re-install all my apps, etc or do I need something else for that?)
Is there anything else I should look for before attempting the update such as USB debugging, etc? Thanks a lot. I appreciate your help.
Ha, I seen your PM on XDA and did reply. One thing you may get by reading my PM is, you might want to back up your apps with titanium back up and then do the nandroid back up in clockwork recovery. Titanium back up allows you to restore your apps after you have your new rom and the nandroid backup allows you to restore your current rom just like it is right now just in case something goes wrong.
Okay, silly question. To put the ROM into the root of the SD card, I just have to copy the .zip file directly into the root folder through Windows, right? Do I need to go through something like Android SDK?
Haha, yeah. I figured that out from your PM. It didn't save my sent message so I didn't remember what I asked. Thanks! I will try this after work tonight and let you know!
Alright guys, it looks like through a little time and research, the flashable mods that worked on the previos OTA and roms based off of it will also work on this rom. Just be cautious just in case.
I'm in the process of wiping everything, and I just realized I'm only on CWM 3.0.0.7...even though I know I installed 5.0.2.0 when installing your ROM of the last OTA. As a result, I don't have an option to wipe /datadata, is that bad? And why am I back on an older version of CWM?
Edit 1: Not really anything I can do at this point, so here goes nothing...installing...
Edit 2: Derp, I'm an idiot. I didn't update to CWM 5.x, I updated to 3.0.0.7 from 2.5.0.5. My bad
I forgot how much stuff was involved in the initial setup...but it looks like it worked.
Here ya go guys, I went ahead and made a flashable that will activate native screenshot for you on this rom. Just simply drop the flashable on your sd card and flash through clockwork recovery. Don't worry about wiping anything. Just flash it. Please note that after flashing the mod your phone will take an excessive amount of time to boot on the first boot after the flash. For me it took about 3 minutes. This is only on the first boot so every boot afterwards will be normal.
You would take a screenshot by pressing and holding down the power button and tapping the home softkey and then releasing the power button. It will pop up a system notice stating the screenshot was taken and where it is stored. To view your screenshot, simply go to your gallery and select all pictures. Your screenshot will be at the very end.
Please note that if it appears to hang after you have performed the actions to take a screenshot just give it a couple seconds. Its processing and the hang is normal occasionally.
Good deal. Just make sure that you upgrade your recovery to the latest version BEFORE you make a nandroid. Nandroids made in the 3 series recoveries are not compatible with the 5 series recoveries.

I think I have an AMOLED version and am on 5.0.2.0, but I'm not sure how to check.
