Decided to help out and with the ok from ihtfp69 i wrote up a FAQ page
for everyone who uses Sky Raider Rom 3.3 Final
feel free to add.
zip is 180,304 kb
Sense 3.3 Requires a FULL WIPE
to avoid reboots make sure you have S-Off, Upgrade the radio to the OTA version
Wipe everything:
Factory Reset
Data Cache
Dalvik Cache
then apply SR 3.3
The initial boot animation is only there for the first boot and reverts to the original thereafter.
The fix for Rom Manager for fix permissions requires you to open Rom Manager once and then it will work after a reboot
Q: How to flash the ROM?
A:good info here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=709220
Q: Since 3.3 requires a full wipe, due to all the changes, I was wondering if the MM mappings for the rosie launcher are still compatible with this new release.

"HTC Mail Mod for EAS Admin Removal" You just go to settings -> security -> remove admin policy

Any chance someone wants to actually put this on the wiki?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Droid_Incredible
There is a ROM section in there and would be a much better location than in a forum post.
What do you guys think?

Baseband version 1.00.03.03.06
hi
I am running SkyRaider 3.0 Sense RC3 but I have been unsuccessful in updating the radio. I've tried HBOOT but it doesn't like the image, tried renaming to update.zip, tried running the zip from Recovery.
Please advise.
thanks
Jack

Hello,
I would like to know what is "HTC Mail Mod for EAS Admin Removal". Is this some kind of feature?
I would like to disable the PIN Lock on my phone that is enforced by my companies security policy. I used to use LockPicker on Android 2.1 but that no longer works. Is there another solution for Android 2.2?
Thanks.
Nevermind I found it. You should add this to the FAQ. You just go to settings -> security -> remove admin policy (forgot the actual name since after I removed it, the option is no longer there)

Im having a couple of problems
1) I cant get my Yahoo mail account to set up, I have installed the Mail Mod from ROM manager.
2) I am trying to install an application from the market and i am getting the error saying I dont have enough space to install. I really dont have many apps so i dont think thats accurate. I have cleared the market's cache, data, and restarted the application, problem still persists.
Thanks for the help

Check to see how many saved backups you have. Each backup can be upwards of 300mb's. If you have more than three that could be the problem. Happened to me once before. I got rid of a couple unnecessary backup files and freed up over half a gig of space. Apps from the market installed with no problems again afterward.

Q: How to enable Tab Lock Screen with Sound Controls?
A: You need to remove the HTC lock screen to get to the underlying stock lock screen, get into Recovery, mount system, I go into adb shell to remove
cmd prompt
Code:
c:/sdk/tools>adb shell
~# (showsup) mkdir /system/app.disabled/
~# mv /system/app HtcLockScreen.apk /system/app.disabled/
~# exit

You have to let it sit for a good while... mine took like 5 minutes after changing the lock screen.

Is it normal for it to take up to 3 hours to complete? Cuz that's what keeps happening

There icons that can b changed through metamorph. I made mods to mine with colored icons like bluetooth, car mode, sms, gmail, email. Two kinds of email- basic email app icon r have one made for me for yahoo. So now when I get a email a yahoo icon pops up in my notification. Ask a themer to make you some. Themes and apps has some. I suggest using sysinterwolf cuz he is the man.

Market working on the vega 1.8 firmware

No need to install modaco R6 as it is not fully compatible with the latest vega firmware 1.8. Just follow these simple instructions and it will be working without any add-ons at all. CWM people will probably have to do it via the recovery.
Just download the attachment with the vega, go to settings, software tool, software update and point it to where you got the downloaded file. The vega will reboot and you will have a full working market. It will be the old version the first time you launch it but it will update itself. After that just install maps, youtube and everything else google. The only thing I'm having trouble installing is the official twitter app.
Hope that helps you guys at XDADEV

hi guys, i'm having issues trying to install market. i have tried this file and the one from o_g. with no luck. i can dl find and execute the file. when i comes to reboot i get the android out of the box symbol (which i'm assuming is bad ?)and have to power down the vega to get it to boot again, without market ? any ideas ? i have little knowledge of android (phone related only) and am a bit stumped.

You're welcome. There are some apps I have difficulty in finding in the market. I think it's due to the market trying to aquire location. I cannot install the official twitter app either. Trying to find solutions.

No, you don't necessarily need it but it doesn't hurt if you do. It has to be done via recovery if you do though, different process. What firmware have you got?

The android out of the box symbol is fine thats when it is flashing the files. there should be a progress bar that turns orange, after that happens the device should reboot its self. The only requirement is you are running stock v1.08.

I have noticed launcher pro does not show in the market had to install manually. i have tried changing the market files, but that does not work, so it might be as you say down to location, or i think it could be to do with are device name on the market, maybe advent does not want us to have those apps. I cant remember where the device name is. I will have to look further.

Thanks o_g, there is no progress bar? And if i leave the vega notfhing happens. Running stock 1.08. I'm wonering if i have been sent a second or a return. The battery was fully charged out of the box and the screen polythene had most definately been removed and replaced. Need to do some more reading methinks

Thanks for the assistance guys, my memory card was the culprit. I had swapped it for a bigger one, and not copied the contents. Sorted now tho now to get flash working properly

If I did this to my vega on the 25th January when it was delivered. what symptoms might present?
It seems to be working well bar "horizontal line gfx glitches" occasionally on the screen.

It works ok, you need to delete some of the apk's out of files/system/app. things like car home can be deleted and other little things. Like that it will not run out of space when you install it and it will not give you errors. This is just another option, that's all. Some more goodies will come along from modaco and xdadev like the new R7 rom addon that were made specifically for the 1.08 firmware.

thanks man, i just changed the 0 to a 1 at the end and it worked, then market updated the second time i opened it.
been trying to do this for over 2 wks

[Q] Phone freezes when in lock for too long.

Hi, I have a problem with the whole locking the Android for too long. The problem is this, when I lock my HTC HD2 for too long, the screen freezes and doesnt come back on unless I remove the battery and re-boot.
Is there a solution for this?

Thanks in advance

Do you have rooted build? Mostly all the builds are rooted. But sometimes in some builds root permissions have problem. You can check whether you have root or not by following method:-
Download terminal emulator from market(free)
Open emulator and type "su" without quotations and press enter
if you do not get any errors then you have root enabled. If you have some errors then you might have to find solution to root your build.

I also got lock freezes that appeared at some point. I started remembering what I was installing and guessed it might be the poweramp lockscreen widget. I disabled it yesterday and did not have any lockscreen freezes today.

Well I am not a pro in the matter of rooting the build... I would recommend you to search the thread of your own build. May be someone else had the same problem. Another thing you can do is post another question about rooting the phone, may be someone expert will help you out....

Version 1.0.0 works fine for me. I've been using it since it was released and I've noticed only one reboot. There are patches that fixes compass and camera as well (read the thread). It's stable enough for daily usage (tested with ARC theme).

Default Homepage on Litening Rom Change HOW TO

Hi Everyone,
I am in need to know how to change the default homepage of litening rom as it gos to the very first page when i push the home button.
I would like to go to the middle page when i push it which requires i edit a line somewhere and put the number 3 in it.
Could anyone help me and the many others who dont know.
Thank you.

rom of Cognition provide this function base on official launcher, but i prefer 3rd party launchers such as adw launcher, zeam launcher and etc. all of which are configable.

Me too
Hey guys,
I wan't another screen to be default, so brought if I press the home button, too. I managed to change it on stock Samsung ROM with this method
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1096521
however there is no default.prop in system directory in Litening ROM! (I use 1.5).
So i wrote this ro.csc.homescreen.defaultscreen=4 into the "build.prop" file of the system folder -> does not work :'(
Then I have written it to the "default.prop" file in the / folder (so nothing ) -> does not work either : Seems to be that the Litening ROM overwrites this file every restart!
Please someone help me

I am in the exact same boat as you now. It does get annoying always going to the first page.

So not 1 person knows how to change it?

Easy way is to use Launcherpro, you an choose the amount of screens and which to use as default.

Put the below string in default.prop file. Replace 3 with whichever
screen as default.
ro.csc.homescreen.defaultscreen=3
This will set the homescreen at start up, but not working on pressing home screen button.

I dont get why it doesnt work when you press the homescreen button? LiteRom definately needs the feature to allow you to change it.

This feature does not depend of LiteRom(only if he finds a way to modify the rom somehow)
This file witch we were modifying up to now is missing in the latest rom's so another way must be found.
Maybe somebody with more skills can help us of corse the suggestions of changing the launcher are not solving our problem.
we need solutions for touchwiz.

this makes me sad
I am very new to android and rooting and roms, etc. I finally figured out how to flash a rom so i decided to go with lightening 6.1. Its really frustrating when small things like these don't work.
I really hope someone can come up with a fix. I've also noticed that adfree android app also doesn't work with this rom and thats such a bummer. I dont want to go back to my stock rom...
