Since Evervolv 4.0.0 is getting pretty usable for the good old Droid Incredible, I thought it was time it had its own thread. These builds are still considered experimental. If the Evervolv team decides that things are stable enough to turn on nightly builds, I will update the OP and stop posting my own builds.

If you have a problem, I'll listen but don't necessarily expect me to fix it. It's not that I'm grumpy, I'm just not that good.

Working:
- Calls / sms
- WiFi
- Mobile Data
- Camera
- sdcard and emmc access from phone
- USB Mass Storage for sdcard and emmc
- ART (Use at your own risk)
- A bunch of other stuff

Not working:
- Video camera
- MMS
- Video hangouts
- Probably more stuff

This ROM is now part of xda DevDB!
Downloads are in the tab up top. ^^^

Many thanks to @tiny4579 for getting this booting and fixing sdcard/fuse issues.
Many thanks also to the Evervolv team.
And finally, thanks to all the brave souls who test and run this ROM!

Which recovery are you guys flashing with? Does anyone talk to Dees_Troy (sp?) enough to feel comfortable about asking him to possibly build an update to TWRP?

I've been using TWRP 2.6.3.0 (latest official build for the inc) so far with no issues. Not sure why we haven't seen updates beyond that. Evervolv supports flashing on older recoveries so it's not that big of a deal, at least for now.

Even galaxyS2 has not been updated. I think it just has to do with time and full selinux support

Upgraded TWRP and now it works properly. Has anyone tried ART on this device? Does it work, and is there any benefit?

Also, is there any way to add to the options drawer (for example, disable auto rotate)?

Can't use art because we do not have the system partition space for the dex files it needs

Please don't use bricked to refer to a recoverable issue. A wipe and reinstall fixes this issue.

Soft bricked is fine meaning the device won't boot but is recoverable. Bootlooping is usually referred to a device that is endlessly trying to boot.

I don't know the reason ART won't work. I don't recommend it. The cache rebuilding alone might take an hour after enabling it so it may not even be a true brick.

Yeah torch just FC's, there are torch apps on Play Store that work though.

Is rendering still sluggish? That (and the wallpaper issue) are normal while it is scanning media or rebuilding gallery's cache or whatever, once it has some time to settle after inserting an sdcard it should work fine. Rendering and wallpaper picker are working OK here.

    New build is up, I won't be able to test it until tonight, so flash with caution until I or someone else confirms that it is working:

    Edit: The Inc is back in the house, so I can test now. ROM works fine, though MMS is still not working.

    An update happened:
    d-h.st/FDO
    I don't know of any significant changes, and no, I did not fix MMS. Oh, and ART does work.*

    * first boot after changing to ART from Dalvik takes forever, and it took a few reboots to get everything to settle in, and the first launch on most apps was really slow...but after all that was over it actually seems to work quite well.

    New build up: http://d-h.st/shm

    There are a few new Evervolv goodies, nothing else immediately noticeable.

    Note: If you're compiling this ROM yourself, this change causes massive amounts of soft reboots, so I have reverted it for now until I can figure out something better.

    Sure, I can build a new version. I was holding off, hoping for a fox for MMS, but I am stumped on that at this point. I'll try to post a new build in the next few days.
