Freezes at splash screen

I've got the same problem

Recovery -> Factory Reset, and wipe cache-davlic-battery -> reboot recovery -> install v5 from zip -> reboot phone -> sync google account -> log into market once -> connect usb to pc from notification bar -> disconnect -> power down - > power on -> pull down notification bar and click connect usb again = notification pulldown jumps back up and that's it

gscript still works

my phone setup:
amoled
most recent evo radio 2.15.00.11.19

computer
mint10 x64
usb2.0

if you see anything in common or find a solution please post back....

update tried the whole thing over again while operating from a windows 7 boot... same result

Can someone please help me? I have been running V3, with no problems and no FC's since it's release. When I tried to update to V4, I got a freeze at splash screen when rebooting, or power on. Had to pull battery then it would boot, until next time. So, I went back to V3, with no problems. Now I have installed V5, following all of the steps above and I have the same problem (splash screen freeze on reboot or power on). I feel like I am going to be stuck on V3 forever. :-(

In addition, I followed all of the steps above and after second boot, the USB connect shows in the notification bar (after plugging in to PC), but when I drag it down and touch it, nothing happens. Gscript still does work OK.

Thanks in advance for anyone who can help me with the splash screen freeze problem. Otherwise this is a great ROM, and my daily driver.

Speaking of splash screens, has anyone noticed that there are two different ones? The first time I got the one that was a picture of an Android as a gingerbread man; the second time (I flashed over it again,same OMGB version 5, did a data wipe and reflashed the kernel), I got a weird, silver Android logo that sparkled until boot was complete. Does it work? Yes. Was it weird? Hella yes. Anyone know anything about this?

Well, that's not good.

Anyone know if ANY AOSP kernel will work on these GB ROMs? I might try one other than invisiblek's because, obviously (and yes I know this is annoying most of you, but I'm still working on a solution) my phone keeps overheating. Though, using OMGB, it doesn't overheat AS fast. Still does it, but not as fast as on Evervolv. Maybe Kingx or another AOSP kernel will give better results?

OMGB-5 is looking pretty promising! Only thing keeping me from going for it is the GPS and camcorder. The camcorder not being there isn't that big of a deal but I use the GPS CONSTANTLY! Between Foursquare, Google places, and navigation, I really work the GPS. Any progress on fixing these bugs? Do they work sometimes or are they completely shot?

R2, awesome work, glad I waited till v5 came out... Bluetooth says its working and sync's with my headset, but phone doesn't pump out to headset. I think you said you were still working on this?

V5 is probably the most responsive ROM I've ever used for this phone. It blows the doors off of anything that preceded it.

Thanks for the hard work R2.

My install failed for v5. It said unable to mount SD and then aborted. Any thoughts?

*update* reflashed and everything is right with the world again!

I have no notofication bar, and if I hit menu and notifications, nothing happens. I do get notification sounds though. Ideas?

Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

did you restore data from another ROM by chance? when I restored data from my MIUI ROM I had no notification bar but the sounds came through just fine.

Ok figured out a work around for my issue with Bluetooth headset; connects but no sound, I have beautiful widget and I tried using bluetooth toggle through it versus power panel/settings, it connected right up and I have sound.

SD card works perfectly for me, when I installed rom, I first went in and:
wiped to factory
wiped davlik cache
then installed rom

Market works also, a lot of the products that were in market do not work work 2.3; gingerbread, so you can't even find them, if you try and restore from Titanium, they won't install either, as it knows they aren't compatible.

Actually Angry Birds will work, it just won't work if you have it on your SD card. I had the same issue and I moved it back to my phone and it plays just fine. Same with Angry Birds Seasons, I haven't had the issue for any other game.

    Quirks
    This rom does not come with a SetupWizard. You need to manually add your google account under Settings > Add Accounts, or by just opening up the market and signing in.

    Your SD does not mount ot the PC like normal, so you need to use gscript. Ive already included the scripts, you just need to run them.

    19
    Those who have an SLCD, please flash with caution. There are some who have had problems. Also, everyone please backup your SD cards. We JUST fixed mounting, and an SD card can be very easily messed up. Thanks =]

    v1
    Hacked together ramdisk. A "ramdisk mish-mash" if you will.
    Pulled relevant files from CM. libs, /usr.
    ril from ID.
    We're lucky in that we're not the the first devs to port it. The Evo build helped us fix:
    keys, lights, lcd density... more stuff that I don't know what it QUITE does, but I pulled it anyway.

    Grab gapps from CM. I'll get a link up. Link: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version
    Scroll downnn. Far right. Clicky.
    EDIT: Do a full boot of the ROM. THEN flash Gapps WITHOUT WIPING. After Gapps flash, do NOT wipe anything.
    IN OTHER WORDS, DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING AFTER INSTALLING THE ROM (unless you're about to install another).




    r2DoesInc is downloading my build now. Once he's all good, I'll post link.

    And now, for the main event. What you've all come to see... the LINK!!
    Wait, I lost it. Haha, okay, here it is. The LINK!!!!

    People, please pay attention...

    I know this will just get lost in the page shuffle in a few minutes, but seriously guys - and gals - please pay attention to the OP... The versions of R2's ROM on Rom Manager are outdated and antiquated - read: obsolete. The current AND STABLE version is in the OP, OMGB-4, not 3, not 2, not 1, not SDKv5... OMGB-4. I'm sure when R2 wakes up from his well deserved nap - or gets home from his finals - he will update Rom Manager to the current release. Until then, stop looking at Rom Manager, and learn to do the flashing manually.

    Also, there is a KNOWN issue with Kernel #21 not working with SOME SLCD screens on Droid Incredible's purchased after September 10th or something like that. If you have no touch responsiveness, please install Kernel #18, which is available in the forums, and there is a link a few pages back in this thread. We are still working on Camcorder and GPS functionality, but other than those two items, the ROM is very fast and very stable. Until we get GPS fixed, location based programs will not install on your phone, so if you require the use of location based programs, WAIT until we get GPS fixed to flash this ROM.

    kkthxbye.

    Sorry, but I will never understand why people release a ROM that only partially works?

    No GPS, No Video? What's the point of a half working phone?

    No disrespect meant here.... but I think it should be a standard to have a ROM 100% working before being released.

    Can't even take the time to read the other 4 pages of comments before I address this.

    Welcome to the cutting edge.
