One more entry into the HTC Incredible ROM arena

For those of you that don't know me (Everyone) I tend to focus on more business looking ROM's with very little "flash" to them.

This ROM is a release based on the Official Android 2.2+ v3.26.605.1 HTC Sense ROM for the Incredible and will only work on it. It also includes the new leaked kernel 2.36.32.17

REMOVED
Most Bloatware:
CityID, Flickr, Skype, Amazonmp3, teeter, VVM, VZnav and maybe more
NOTE: Most are installable from the Market.

NOTE: There is also a full version below with the same additions and theme but nothing removed and a trimmed version with almost stock theme


ADDED/MODDED
Customized Rosie launcher (Thanks to deficitism and JsChiSurf),
Customized Digital Flip clock (Ported from HD Desire),
Customized Lock screen w/ music controls,
Customized Dialer & Phone,
Customized Keyboard (In addition to stock keyboard - Thanks to gIMpSTa - Enable in settings)
Colorized Icons (Based on mine plus thanks to various XDA users)
Latest Google apps from market,
Application installer,
ROM Manager,
SuperUser,
WiFi Tether,
Enhanced power menu (reboot)
DSP Manager (EQ)
Spare Parts,
Easy Answer Button (From market- Open it to enable)
Optical wake (Works most of the time)
Rooted
DEODEXED
ZipAligned
See post 2 for additional updates, changes, and add ons

The theme is mostly black as you can see from the screen shots.

Special thanks to deficitism (Inspiration & Mods), HeyItsLou (guidance), gIMpSTa & Jonasl (keyboard), JsChiSurf (Dialer fonts & alignment) and many others for there mods, icons and assistance. Also thanks to dsixda for his easy to use kitchen. There are many others that were instrumental in developing some of the other stuff included in making the ROM.

INSTRUCTIONS

Requirements:
▪ Clockwordmod Recovery
▪ Radio 2.x
▪ A Full Wipe Highly Recommended!
NOTE: May flash fine over a stock Froyo 2.2 Rooted ROM. If you have problem then re-flash with a full wipe

Copy ROM to root of the SDCARD
Either use ROM Manager to install it or boot into recovery and install it that way

NOTE: Be patient on first boot since it may sit for a few minutes at the Droid Eye

KNOWN PROBLEMS
None other than "OEM provided" unless you tell me otherwise

DISCLAIMER: As usual, flash at your own risk and don't forget to backup your current installation before flashing.

A COMPLETE FULL MODIFIED ROM

Little by little I am adding things back in by request and came to the conclusion that I could end up with everything back in. SO, what I did was create a complete ROM with my mods and additions so you have everything from the stock leak with the look and feel of my primary ROM

Download - Complete ROM Version 3.2 -->> Here


A VERSION OF THE TRIMMED ROM WITH NO THEME

By popular request (1 Person ) I created a ROM identical in functionality to the trimmed version 3.1 ROM with all original graphics. Actually, the Rosie launcher and lockscreen slider are themed so the alternate launchers in post #2 can be used.

No screenshots since it looks just like the stock ROM.

1) Turn on GPS
2) Start Maps
3) When prompted turn on WiFi (do not need to connect to any)
4) Map should then show approximate location
5) Get out of maps
6) Reboot
6) Start Navigation

More themeing and cleanup
Wide Rosie launcher
Added application installer (handy with fresh install and removable)

KEYBOARD NOTE: To activate the themed keyboard go into Settings > Language & Keyboard then select HTC_IME mod. Then go into a text box and press and hold to select it. Lots of configuration options so have fun. Experiment with button sizes (best is 3 Wide 15 High) in settings.

If you don't like the keyboard I included you can go here and make your own. Keyboard themer

Liking the look. For the next update please include Facebook for HTC sense so that contact list images sync?

Will do.. I don't use it so I did not think of that. Have you tried installing it from the Market?

I believe if you install Facebook from the market and go into settings -> sync with existing contacts it should do the same thing.

Posted version 1.3 to remove Root Explorer since there is no longer a free version in the Market.

Please make recommendations for a file explorer to include in the next release.

Super Manager and Android Mate (Free) are two options for a Root File Explorer. Both are more than just a file explorer but they get the job done.

I would go with Super Manager over Android Mate. Android Mate seems to try and steal default launcher.
