I have had the same problem since the update was released. It has been very annoying to look at the phone and it is in recovery waiting for a reboot and have several missed calls from business partners, family and friends. They know I have a bad a$$ phone but I can tell they are wondering why it doesn't work. I have to wake myself up around 1 am every morning to make sure that I reboot the phone from recovery so that my 5:30 am alarm goes off to start my day. (Grrrrrr epic fail).

If I were to re lock the boot loader and install a stock ROM would that allow the update to take. Then maybe I could unlock and return to a custom ROM?

I feel like I am in a state of limbo and unsure what to do. Any help would be great.
[HTC Rezound] Easton999GS:
To fix the ota problem all you have to do.is install it and it will fail on recovery. Then it won't ask anymore
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
there is nothing wrong with letting that update install and updating your radio. It won't ask you anymore.
[HTC Rezound] rboddy:
Nils, I've noticed some kind of battery draw going on that I can't seem to figure out. Using System Panel I noticed that the phone was constantly using ~3% battery at all times and never really stopping with the screen off. I installed a stock rooted ROM from Scott and didn't touch it, the only thing I did was set up my Google account so I could download ES File Explorer. I let the phone sit relatively untouched for 2 hours and checked System Panel. It shows the CPU being used a lot less, and actually stopped at times. I then installed the latest 1.6 (I have been using 1.5) and it was doing the same thing as before, and again this is with nothing installed, and the same data usage and location options as the stock ROM. Also WiFi is not on, I'l always on 4G. Any idea what could be causing this or how to find out?? Here are some screenshots I took....

Nils. Is there a way to implement a toggle for the statusbar clock? For turning off and on?

report

I use English Input Method,no problem at all

when I use Traditional Chinese Input Method,it has a problem

can't full screen,can you fix it?? Thanks:p:p
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I can take a look at the keyboard but can't promise I can fix it. It was ported for the arrows and only was expected to work for English.
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Voice Search vs. Voice Dialer

Nils - I think this is a throwback question back to the DINC, but do you think you could implement changing the BT Button Push from the very limited (but no Internet required) Voice Dialer to the far more versatile Voice Search?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I will have to tax my memory but I will take a look at it.
[HTC Rezound] 2K3GTP:
It fails to install and sits at reboot in recovery.

Does it every day, twice a day. It's not like I am deffering or rejecting it, I let it do it's thing and it always fails.

Here is what it says:

assert failed:apply_patch_check ("system/app/AccountSyncManager.apk, E:unknown command ["252a745cf189979ebbe798d932edd1b97baf5496",]

(Status 7)

Installation aborted
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Hmm

Sounds to me like you need to run a nandroid, go back to stock recovery and stock ROM, let the OTA do its thing to the radio etc, and then restore your nandroid.
[HTC Rezound] Kratz17:
So can I go back to stock rom, stock recovery, re-lock update everything and then unlock and root again?

Sent From My Blast 4G LTE ReZound :cool:
[HTC Rezound] ram911:
+1

Exact same here.

I like many of the qualities of this ROM, but for me waking up at 2 am to make sure my phone gets rebooted so my alarm will not be affected or checking my phone at 10 am to find missed calls because the OTA failed and is waiting in recovery to be re booted is a definite deal breaker for me.

I did not find any solutions for this problem so I decided to flash cleanrom and the trouble with the OTA stopped for me.

At this point I do not have the time to try to figure the reasons or the differences between these two ROMs but maybe with help from this forum a solution will allow me to come back as I enjoyed the theme and battery life. :confused:
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
Yes sir. Even restore your nandroid.
[HTC Rezound] Kratz17:
Any idea where can I get the stock recovery? I already have an intact nandroid of the stock rom I did as soon as I rooted.

Is this still being worked on? If not is this based on the newest ota? Just curious since a few pages back I see people talking about being prompted for ota updates... any help or info would be great......also great work.nils

VZW has a promotion; $50 for the Rezound. Should I set my Dinc aside? ;=)

[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
Eh. A friend of mine who works at Verizon said to me today "Why do u think the thunderbolt is free and the rezhound is $50 they just wanna get rid off them they have them over stocked I still think either the nexus or the razr maxxx, but if money is an issue go with the rezound".

I'm confused. I'm not sure why he dislikes the Rezound so much. I've talked to him previously about it and he loves his Galaxy Nexus although i totally don't like that phone. Maybe me and him just have different tastes...
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Nils ... I am running this ROM but am told there is a 52 mb update available. That is too small to be ics. Any idea what it might be?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I have no idea. People have reported before that they had that message then when they tried it nothing happened. Go into the market and see if it is something there wanting to update.
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Nope ... It is under settings ... Software ... Check for update ... 52mb!
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
It will fail so try it and it should go away.
[HTC Rezound] hopesrequiem:
This is what I see when I do it.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
That is the OTA download manager which is why it failed since it does not know what to do with a custom ROM
[HTC Rezound] hopesrequiem:
Hmmm tempted to revert back to stock unrooted to get official ics. Maybe ill wait a day
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
I will receive the Rezound tomorrow. Any tips on what steps to take in order to root it would be much appreciated :)

The Root forum is too confusing.

Also, I'm not sure if it's going to have ICS already or not and if not it'll probably have an OTA update message and I'd like to know whether I should accept it before rooting or not.

Thanks.
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
I would use the Rezound all in one toolkit to unlock and root, I did, its noob proof, there is even a tube video showing you how to do it

Im having a issue,

After I take a picture with my phone and then share to gmail, sending the picture to myself, The email just hangs, "sending"

I can hit refresh, nothing just sits there, I can go into settings, sync gmail, it is already sync'n

The only thing I can do is reboot, then it will send.

Anyone else having this issue?

Hitch
[HTC Rezound] pagereborn:
well it reboots on it's own after I hit apply then it just keep going, i tried pulling battery out and it still does it. BTW BAMF is giving me the same problem too. However, BAMF set me back to normal stock speed after reboot which stops the bootloop I think. Never mind, I think it's the set on boot option not the ROM.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
When trying to find the sweet spot for cpu speed make sure you don't turn on making it stick on reboot.
[HTC Rezound] Droidel:
Flashed successfully. Loving it so far. Going to kernel it soon.

Thanks Nils.
[HTC Rezound] rspong:
tether & beats

Users that installed, does this wifi tether operate only in adhoc mode?

Also, is Beats option built into the stock music player? so unless this rom removed that player i assume still has Beats?
[HTC Rezound] Droidel:
Beats is installed and auto detects when buds are plugged in.
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
You might want to at least grab the unlock code from HTC in case Verizon decides to squash this. I'm not ready to root yet due to inexperience so I grabbed mine just in case and am saving it for after I've done more research.
[HTC Rezound] aostl:
Have you guys with WiFi problems tried extracting and flashing the boot.IMG from nils Rom? I have to do that on my flyer with htc unlock
[HTC Rezound] awenthol:
Advance power menu and quick settings would be much appreciated!

Thanks for your work!
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Working on it now.
[HTC Rezound] lllboredlll:
nils... check your pm
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Got it thanks
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
Verizon isn't going to quash anything. The Rezound is now listed on the HTC Dev site as supported for unlocking. When the unlock was actually released, it hadn't yet appeared on the list. You can't backtrack on stuff like this.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Pretty sure I agree with you. Looking forward to the first report.
[HTC Rezound] Droidel:
Is there an option in your Rom to change the device name. Some roms have it in the WiFi settings. It's the name that shows on a router as a device name.

Rezound sent this
[HTC Rezound] Droidel:
How to change the text balloons color? I hate the green.

Rezound sent this
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
If you use WiFi Tether you can change the SSID there

What color would you like
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Version 1.1 updated in Post 1

Release 1.1

* Themed Phone and Dialer - (White on Black)

* Hide GPS reticle

* Advanced power menu - Thanks to lllboredlll

* Semi-Transparent notification pull down

* Overscroll glow

Flash over version 1.0 is fine
[HTC Rezound] Droidel:
Not for wifi tether. When I'm connected to my router it shows me mac address, ip and device name. In the device name it says Android_###############

I remember cm7 having that option to change "device name".

Here is what my router shows (WRT54gl running shibby tomato firmware)

As for bubble color how about light and dark gray.

EDIT: Anyone interested in changing the device name, you can do so via terminal.

to get current device name

everything is working....

hi im loving this rom.. the only thing i noticed is my notification screen is black and the words show up black as well.. so i can't see the text since they are both black.. is there a way to fix that?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Which one? I don't see that. Maybe a screenshot if possible.

Just in case I added the stock notification pulldown to post 3
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
Hey Nil's, The Rom is looking real nice so far. glad to see HTC unlocked the boot loader.

I will soon be on the Rezound.

I did have one question to see if it is possible to do in the future. I never liked the sense launcher bar it always seemed to be such a huge waste of space. I was hoping there might be a mod in the future for a four button launcher bar like Samsung uses or maybe even a five button.

Great Job, Thanks for you dedication as always.

Hitch
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Definitely a possibility but you know my style. Once I get the ROM where I want it for basic and extended functionality I will attack this. In the mean time the are options like ADW and other launchers.
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
For sure, this is back burner stuff and figured if it was possible to do it would wind up being a add on flash for not everyone would want that.

More important to work on the Rom, the add ons dont mean crap if there are still bugs to be worked out, not that there are a lot of bugs to be worked out, more like getting of all your tweaks to work smooth as butter. ;)

I did buy ADW ex way back but I dont use it for it defeats Sense, Patience is a virtue.

Hitch
[HTC Rezound] champdr0id:
I'll be the second confirmation for this. Is there something I didn't do right?
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
If i remember correctly one of versions of Nil's roms for the Dinc had this issue.

Im sure he is working on it
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I need help like a screen shot since I can't see it or describe the actual notification.

In the meantime the stock notifications is in post 3
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Overscan Glow

I have never seen overscan on the stock release ... it is a carousel that just starts from the beginning (and if you hit it fast enough, produces a shrinking and then growing spin). Was this feature removed in favor of an overscan glow?
[HTC Rezound] champdr0id:
One provided (I hope) haha
[HTC Rezound] champdr0id:
Second try. If it doesn't send, ill try again when I get home
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
Nils, looks like the problem with the text on text colors DevilDog had with some of his mods on several Incredible ROMs.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Would you do me a favor and boot to recovery and clear cache and dalvik and see if that fixes it. Mine are black on white background for each notification like they should be.

Have you flashed any other mods?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Problem is I am not seeing it. I wonder if it is just the G-Mail notifications.

For those that are having problems with it the backout is in post 3
[HTC Rezound] champdr0id:
No mods flashed. Just wiped caches. No changes.

Sent from my Rezound
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Is it all notifications or just G-Mail?

If it is a problem for you use the stock from post 3
[HTC Rezound] Droidel:
Same issue here with the black on black text/bg. Here's a screenshot.

I was on v 1.0 prior to this. DID wipe cache and davlik before flashing 1.1.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Here is the same conditions with mine.

This is strange. The icons for adb and usb look different than mine and something is eating the background for the notifications. Plus the shade close on the bottom is the stock one.

I keed suspecting it is either a mod installed or residue from a prior ROM.

Try a fresh install with a full factory reset and let me know.
[HTC Rezound] Dodger70:
I had my notifications working perfect but then I changed from the stock skin to the blue sky and that's when I started seeing the black on black notification. I have since gone back to the stock green skin and it solved my problem.
[HTC Rezound] champdr0id:
I was using blue sky too.
[HTC Rezound] Droidel:
Factory reset via recovery (amon Ra)?
[HTC Rezound] captainm27:
Nils, are you able to adjust the spacing for the keyboard? For example, when using the landscape keyboard, I keep hitting the period instead of the space bar. Would it be possible to adjust the landscape keyboard so that the space bar takes up more space, while the period, number pad key, and the enter key take up less?
[HTC Rezound] pbprodigy1724:
Well, doesn't seem like anyone else is having this problem, but when I click wifi it tells me error and refuses to turn on. which also means my wireless tether does not work either.

any thoughts?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Have you changed kernels?

That answers that. I will have to see what I can do with skins for notifications. Until then we are stuck with the stock skin unless you flash back to the stock notifications.

That is the best way but if you are just having the notifications problem no need. See above.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I will have to look into that. I do the same once in awhile but I swear I hit the space bar. Wonder if it is a built in feature/bug of the keyboard or something.

Anyway, I am actually trying to port an arrowed keyboard so will work on that at the same time.
[HTC Rezound] captainm27:
Ok, cool!! Can't wait!
[HTC Rezound] pbprodigy1724:
well I have attempted to change kernals. but it never sticks for some reason. so I gave up on that for now. I guess I can zip the file again. Guess I didn't consider the kernal since it hasn't seemed to work for me.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Check in Settings > Software and see what kernel you have installed and we can go from there.
[HTC Rezound] pbprodigy1724:
It says I am still running the htc kernal. I have tried to flash ziggy but I never seems to stick. Thank you for the help by the way nils.
[HTC Rezound] timp123:
I too am having the same WiFi error when trying to turn on. I'm running the latest ziggy kernel.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I am hearing many reports about WiFi with Ziggy's kernel. Some say just reflash it or go back to stock.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
How are you flashing it. You need to use the fastboot method somewhere in Ziggy's thread.
[HTC Rezound] timp123:
Just downloaded the zip off ziggy's thread, flashed it in recovery, and WiFi now works fine. Thanks for the tip.
[HTC Rezound] azgoofball:
Nils, I just downloaded 1.1 but my phone says the file is corrupt. Do you have a mirror file somewhere?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Check the MD5 and if it fails try to download again.

If you can download to PC and copy over.
[HTC Rezound] azgoofball:
ok, so copy it from the phone then to pc, then back again right?
[HTC Rezound] captainm27:
[/QUOTE]=NilsP;20969801]Anyway, I am actually trying to port an arrowed keyboard so will work on that at the same time.[/QUOTE]

Nils, I have an idea for the arrow keyboard. Would you be able to add one icon for the arrows on the keyboard, and then, if you hold that icon down for a second, it splits into the four arrows, and then you slide your finger to the arrow that you want, and the cursor moves 1 step at a time, every second, for as long as you hold it. e.g. If you wanted to go 3 spaces to the right, you would click and hold the arrow key, then it would split open to show the four arrows, and you slide your finger to the right one, and leave it there until it moves 3 spaces to the right, and then you let go.
[HTC Rezound] pbprodigy1724:
Yes I used con flashing tool to build a ph file and flash that in bootloader. It just never seems to add on.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Nope. Download it to the PC then copy to phone. Then install it with the instruction in post 1

Thats a good idea but probably more coding than I am capable of. I think I need to stick to trying to get the one with the arrows across the bottom working.

Seems the fastboot method is the most effective.

Should I worry that one of the cores is offline in system tuner app. I'm using stock kernel.

Can someone else confirm this?

Loving the Rom so far.
[HTC Rezound] Droidel:
Even the stock Rom didn't come with a flashlight app. Not sure why. I miss my dinc1 50000 lumens light in cm7 lol. It was super bright. Any way to incorporate the torch light with high brightness setting that uses both LEDs?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
True, stock ROM does not have it but we will

It is in release 1.2 coming in a day or so. Thought it was in 1.1 but I checked and it is not. Yeah, I like it also

Hi, I liked the screenies of your rom, nils, but I had no luck installing your rom. I wiped everything before installation, and it would get to your boot logo, and halfway through it loops. Could never get past it, and I tried twice. I wiped dalvik, cache, system, data, battery stats.

Thanks for your efforts, though, much appreciated.
