Neither do I, and it still shows up in my Market. Well, I do have a problem with it in that I can't use any of the music on my SD card thanks to HTC's moronic decision to name the internal storage "sdcard", and I have yet to try the whole streaming from the cloud thing, but I can definitely get the app at least.
[HTC Rezound] Quantumrabbit:
Thank you guys... I was flipping out a bit.
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
im not talking about the app google music. im talking about the service. it is not appearing in my market page. it is a categorie like " apps" and "books" can someone confirm that they have this in their market?

---------- Post added at 10:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 PM ----------

i have my internal storage full of music
[HTC Rezound] rboddy:
I like to keep all of my media on the SD card for redundancy in case the phone craps out or something. I guess I'll just copy it all over to the internal storage though while still keeping it on the SD card as a backup.

And I don't understand what you mean by "not the app, the service", but I think you might be asking if at the Market home screen, there should be a tile with a Music title, like there is for Apps, Books, Movies, and Games? If so, I don't have it, but I don't remember it being there on my Dinc, probably never noticed. Usually if I'm in the market, I know what I want and don't pay attention to much else.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
I'm gonna think of my external card more as backup and rom/nandroid stuff and probably keep the internal for music and pics.
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
Yes it's kind of a big deal. Been in all the tech mags. They have it categorized, and what I like Is how they are letting these indie bands keep 70 percent of the revenue.

Anyways it just happened in the last day or so. Like I said I have it on my evo but its not showing up on this phone.

And to clarify i have the app Google music on my phone
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
All my music is on my removable card (sdcard2) and they play fine. I know because I added they with an adapter on the PC not on the phone.
[HTC Rezound] rboddy:
Nils, you're talking about Google Music, right? Mine just tells me it can't find anything in the library, as if it's not seeing sdcard2 or something, where all of my music is. If your Google Music is seeing your actual SD card, let me know how, because I can't figure it out :(
[HTC Rezound] Quantumrabbit:
They said it'll take 2-3 days for everyone to see it. I still don't on my Inc, I have a buddy who doesn't see it on his Evo 3D on Sprint.

I doubt it's Verizon blocking anything, they are just rolling out the new market section over time.
[HTC Rezound] kron2:
I have 3.3 .11 market on my rezound just downloaded Google music
[HTC Rezound] zeroxg4:
To those wondering about the "low light camera", maybe you should actually use the camera's settings. Try increasing your exposure.

I took some really nice shots today by increasing my exposure, saturation, and sharpness by 1. I'm leaving the ISO setting on normal for now.
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
Lol nevermind.

Well ok here is a shot.
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
yes that could be. im a little suspicious tho. i do hope your right.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Nope, sorry that was with the HTC music player.
[HTC Rezound] Blacktruck:
I've just d/l Google Music for the first time, it picked up music on my sd card and on the songs I uploaded from my laptop. When I connect my phone to pc, it finds two drives, one says HTC Storage, and the other as "H", which would be the SD card on the phone, thats where I have my music located. On the phone using ES File Explorer, "sdcard/" is HTC Storage and within that is a folder "ext_sd" which is the actual sd card. Thats my understanding of it anyway.
[HTC Rezound] rboddy:
I'd love to know how yours is reading and mine isn't. I have my music in a folder titled "Music" on my SD card. Is yours titled differently maybe? I'd rather not copy all my music from SD to Internal just to use the app if I don't have to. Maybe I'll just stick to the HTC Music app for the time being anyways, when I'm not on Slacker.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Create folder called Media with a sub folder of Music
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
ok was bored and i did some hacking tonight. not sure if this has been done before.

so was thinking about this whole verizon and music thing and though this isnt concrete proof they are blocking googles music service, ( and please dont reply that you were able to download the app google music!) its still pretty cool. as you can see in this screenshot im running two markets at the same time. ive never gotten this far with it. usually it force closes right away. it runs until you try to download and then it fails which i knew it would because of app callbacks.

and low and behold on my hacked market im showing google music
[HTC Rezound] staticx57:
I have the music category on my market 3.3.11
[HTC Rezound] phoenx06:
I have Music as a category on the main page as well
[HTC Rezound] rboddy:
Fernando, for what it's worth, I didn't have Music on my 3.11 Market, but when I just cleared Cache and Data in the Manage Apps page, and then restarted it, I now have Music. Did you try that yet?
[HTC Rezound] Quantumrabbit:
Google's announcement was pretty specific about it taking 2-3 days for everyone to see it on the latest market version.

You should really not be so quick to jump to conclusions. That kind of information can have a very detrimental effect if it spreads, especially when it's totally false and unjustified.

And a section in the marketplace is very different from Google Music, but for the first 4 of your posts, you called it Google Music. Of course people are going to assume you mean the App, not the section in the marketplace.

At least we can get back on topic, waiting for a root. :)
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
Seriously? Do you know how many hours I've spent helping people on this site? Why do so many people feel the need to lecture and Try to put people in there place? Believe me you will all get over it.

I'll tell you what. Ill delete my posts. I actually thought it was funny in a self deprecating way.

Now please get back on topic which to you IS evidently lecturing.

and waiting for root is a topic? if we just talk about the temp root which because oh htc is buggy at best then this thread is dead.
[HTC Rezound] silverxbv2:
Yeah? You really want to ramble on about waiting? This thread should have been 2 posts long at the most.

Post 1. I got temp root.

Post 2. Mods please close. Everything after that has been more or less of topic. **** even the title of thread isn't really correct.

Fern saw something he thought was an issue and wanted to put it out there. And did a little testing to verify. I find it hard to believe that you're trying to talk down to him like he has only 314 worthless posts since April. Oh wait, that wasn't his profile. I'm sure we'll see you in our Bad Seed threads, asking random, stupid off topic questions eventually. Because God forbid that someone might actually be capable of helping others out instead of waiting for someone to else to troubleshoot it.

[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
Edit
[HTC Rezound] Quantumrabbit:
I'm not trying to be condescending. I'm saying he flipped out, which causes people like me who do not yet have the phone due to corporate lag to be incredibly worried that this phone will flat-out not work for us any more. Post count doesn't matter when you talk authoritatively about Verizon blocking features and making bad assumptions which are invalid.

If you're going to call out Verizon as blocking something, you really need to be right, because it's a huge deal. All it would have taken is droid-life or phandroid, or android central, or gizmodo, or another of a few dozen websites to see his post as post it as news. This forum is regularly the source for news articles for those companies. Soon as one has it, they all link each other, now it's national news.

Am I perfect? No. Can you find some of my posts that might be incorrect? I'm sure you can. Am I posting completely invalid stuff about how Verizon is physically blocking access to HTC and Google features on the phone. No. If I was planning to, I'd certainly want a link, or proof based on logs, or a decompiled APK, or net traffic, something.

I'm sorry you guys feel I'm lecturing, that's really not my intent.

If you think you find an issue, you say: "hey, I think I see X, anyone else see it?"

This is clearly read as Verizon is blocking Google music. It's not a question, it's not something he noticed, it's not asking for others to double check. It's a statement made claiming something authoritatively as if it was a known fact. At the time I could not find information about it elsewhere on the web, and that's because it wasn't there... and it wasn't true.

I have no intention of fighting with any of you. You are all vastly more experienced than I am in the Android realm, and XDA in particular. I'm not trying to be a ****, I'm not trying to say don't help or don't look into anything. I'm more than willing to admit when I'm in the wrong... and apparently I should never have made a post here at all. Sorry for all this tomfoolery.

Fernando, I'm not claiming you haven't been helpful elsewhere, I'm not claiming you should never have posted anything. I'm claiming you shouldn't make authoritative claims based on your fears and assumptions. Nothing more, so stop reading into all sorts of stuff I didn't say and don't mean.
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
Well as I said i can laugh at myself. I was wrong and i made light of it. You WERE lecturing and i didn't flip out. But your entitled to your opinion as i am entitled to defend myself. AND in light of everything treve exposed about data collecting it isn't beyond the realm of possibility for Verizon to pull something like this. I was wrong.

Your just coming as defending big red. And they are to blame for our phone being locked and that's a fact

Selfish Question

I know that this is a really selfish request, but would the OP consider renaming the thread to "Can the Rezound be Rooted." It looks like this is a root thread when it is a hypothetical discussion thread.

I realize the OP is trying to make this the root release thread, which is fine; but in the interim, please consider changing.
[HTC Rezound] POQbum:
no, temp root can be achieved and that is what this thread was showing. S-OFF aka being able to flash ROM's and kernels is not available yet.
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
...

Thanks! Slight tweak, maybe the OP could change to "Temp Root." I just keep getting excited every time I see this post at the top :)
[HTC Rezound] rboddy:
So what's used to do this? Im hopefully picking mine up tonight after work and I really want to get all of my Ti Backup data transferred from my Dinc to the Rezound. I'm assuming Z-Root was used??
[HTC Rezound] con247:
no. zergrush was used. look up htc amaze root.
[HTC Rezound] Mikey450GT:
Yaaarrrrr! Since we are going with a pirate theme lol
[HTC Rezound] sinister856:
I just tried Zergrush, didn't work for me.... not even temp root
[HTC Rezound] guitarevan07:
yeah, whats going on? Is there not a released root method yet?

Haven't been able to get the zerg root working. Does anyone know how?

Thanks
[HTC Rezound] bast525:
watching this thread with great interest.... I don't see how people even consider upgrading without the ability to restore apps and settings.... asides from the hours it would take to set even app up the way I want, I would lose all my game saves....

so yeah, much as I want the rezound, I'm waiting til someone can confirm a root or temp root that everyone can do easily so that I can restore a Ti backup ....

so, can someone help with the details of using the zergrush method?
[HTC Rezound] clos101:
It's the only thing holding me back right now as well.
[HTC Rezound] guitarevan07:
I

n the Rezound mount points thread someone says The Zerrush method works...hmmm
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Search for "HTC Rezound Root" and the site will have advice in it's name and you will atleast get temp root.

Sorry, I don't think we are permitted external links to other sites
[HTC Rezound] guitarevan07:
YUP got Root! Using the zergroot method! Make sure all your HTC drivers are installed, and your phone is in HTC SYNC mode. That's what worked for me. Charge only wouldn't work!
[HTC Rezound] clos101:
I'm not the most savvy. If I have temp root am I able to get TB on there to restore my stuff? What happens when I reboot and temp root goes away?
[HTC Rezound] gbishop18:
Got my rezound today. Yeah buddy
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I did it with usb debugging and charge only with the Rezound version.
[HTC Rezound] reverepats:
Usually thats how Temp Root works...You are correct sir!!...I used Temp Root on my EVO for over a month and it was great to hold me over until AlphaREV came around. I think this device is gonna see some great Development in here. Otherwise I wouldnt have gotten it LOL. Man 4G LTE FLIIIIESSS....Im loving it so far, and just 2 hours into Verizon LOL. So I see that most are having success with Temp Root, I may have to take it for a spin myself.

[HTC Rezound] bast525:
I may have a Rezound in my hands here within an hour or two.... seeing people getting temp root has me smiling.... Ti restore for the win.

I've never had temp root before, I'm assuming this will NOT allow removal of .apks from /system/app? Via root explorer or adb in recovery? that's my next big thing asides from restoring backups.... get that junk-ware OFF of there!
[HTC Rezound] Quantumrabbit:
Holy crap... Nils, Newt, Joelz, dmeadows... pretty much whole brigade of Inc devs are here. And a bunch of other guys...

Man... I was planning on buying this phone, but talk about confirming a decision. I just want to make sure S-OFF can be achieved before I plunk down $300.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Great.

Fun to have new challenges.
[HTC Rezound] rboddy:
I believe I have drivers on my laptop already for my Dinc, I don't need any special Rezound drivers for this Zerg Root procedure do I?

I'm not having luck getting my drives to mount apparently, the Ti status screen says nothing is mounted or available, even though I can navigate my SD card just fine in ES Explorer.
[HTC Rezound] zeroxg4:
Aw, MAN am I happy I got this phone. Development is where it is!

Man Nils I haven't seen you in AGES your ROMs were great back in the Omnia days.
[HTC Rezound] sinister856:
Ok I got it !
[HTC Rezound] WorldOfJohnboy:
No offense, but can the thread title be changed, adding the word "TEMP" before "Rooted?" The title is rather misleading as it currently stands.

Why exactly do you need the directions if you refuse to buy the phone?
[HTC Rezound] azgoofball:
Nils! I look forward in a Business Sense Rom for Rezound! I just retired my Inc (handed it down to the daughter :D ) and it was my favorite rom!
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
Very happy with this phone so far. Not to crazy about the zerg temp root. It doesn't last even without reboots.

Temp root is like a massage minus the happy ending
[HTC Rezound] dabomb697:
Use your new every 2 -50 then trade your INC to Verizon another -50. Boom you're only looking at 200. That's what I did. Or even better you can get it from Amazon for 229. Add your trade in to that and it's only 179!
[HTC Rezound] KlugN:
That's why I want this phone so badly. I just don't think I can handle the overall size of the phone... I'm still debating between the GNex and this phone.
[HTC Rezound] azgoofball:
I bought my Rezound yesterday and I love it. I think your biggest choice between Rezound and Nexus is really looks. Yes there are minor differences in processors, but not big enough to make giant leap. I always liked Sense and HTC, so it was a no brainer. :D
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
The rumor that its a huge phone is a little off. It's lighter then my evo 3d
[HTC Rezound] jbis:
The Gnex is actually bigger (width and length)... just thinner
[HTC Rezound] KlugN:
The thickness of the phone is my biggest concern. I don't want it to feel like a brick in my pocket.

That being said, I'm going to wait until the Gnex is released so I can play with both for a little while. I kind of like the idea of all buttons being on screen with no softkeys as well...

I was up for my upgrade in September so at this point It's just a waiting game.
[HTC Rezound] snicklet:
It's not thick at all. It is thinner than my thunderbolt.
[HTC Rezound] dmeadows013:
The Rezound feels very slim. Also, it is thinner than the Incredible.
[HTC Rezound] zeroxg4:
I've also observed that it's about half the weight of the TB. It's pretty damn light.
[HTC Rezound] J2B2:
Just walked in the door with mine. Looking for root now! This thing is pretty impressive so far. It's just slightly heavier than my DX and just slightly thicker. I was a little worried looking online about it being big and bulky but it's pretty damn close to my X. I'm glad I made the plung with this one. Was waiting for the Gnex but I'm not waiting around for god knows when. If it comes out and I want it then I'll cross that road when I get there. For now I'm just stoked I have a phone with an unlocked bootloader. SCREW YOU MOTOROLA, SCREW YOU.
[HTC Rezound] Newt:
I'm almost ready to order mine got a early upgrade but still alil short on the cash.... See you guys soon hopefully
[HTC Rezound] Cadillac Kid:
as of right now you don't have a phone with an unlocked boot loader..... were all assuming it will be but were just hoping. and blame verizon not motorola
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
htc you mean
[HTC Rezound] Cadillac Kid:
Both :)
[HTC Rezound] rboddy:
No it's not. It's slightly thicker, but because of the shape of the back it may feel thinner at certain points. I definitely notice the extra size coming from the Dinc, and the unlock button being on the right side is a tad of a challenge while holding it in my right hand as I'm a righty, but it's nothing that really bothers me. All comes with the territory of owning a 4.3" phone I guess.

All in all, I look at this thing like the Dincs big brother :)
[HTC Rezound] reverepats:
Whaaaat.....Fern its good to see u here brotha. Did u switch from Sprint? Or did u not even have a EVO 3D? Just switched yesterday, and loving this man. Yeah I'm not to big on temp root either but still might give it a shot. I'm bored LOL

I heared yur done with theming?

Taking a break from it. Actually i carry Sprint and Verizon. Just picked up the rezound. Pretty cool. Good to see the dinc guys coming over.

So in that case, does anyone know if it would be possible to hardware unlock with something such as an XTC Clip?

I'm assuming since no one has mentioned it that it's not, but I still have to ask lol

Picking up my Rezound in 45 mins. Coming over from the Inc. Good to see some of the best Developers here!
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Seems people are losing root after a period of time because su is FCing.

The attached zip has the latest working su binary and superuser.apk.

If you:

1) extract this zip to the Zerg rush folder on your PC and replace the su and superuser.apk

2) Reboot phone to clean up temp root

3) Connect usb in charge or sync

4) Run the Zerg rush bat

it will help and hold until the reboot.
