Out of curiosity I put in my friends old AT&T sim tried it under WCDMA, and GSM and wasn't able to get a reception. I am dev unlocked and running Scott's ICS rom right now. I plan to go out of the country in the upcoming months so I am not sure if it was the sim, or my phone. :/

Hi,

Did anyone here try the unlock code provided by this website ? http://www.htcsimunlock.com/htc-rezound-unlock.html
[HTC Rezound] alford6:
it dont make sence using online unlocking services. most are scams
[HTC Rezound] tbaker077:
Besides I think our phone is already unlocked once we do a dev unlock, or how else would users be getting a signal, and even 3G.
[HTC Rezound] BrumBrum74:
Guess people are right. We might need S-OFF to get sms working. Or a dev that can find the fix in the code somewhere.

I'm waiting for my phone. Bought it on eBay yesterday. looking forward to getting it.
[HTC Rezound] tbaker077:
Still would like to see what this unlock could do.
[HTC Rezound] jmz:
Absolutely nothing. They ate a known scam site. How are you suppose to enter a sim unlock code if you put in a sim card in and it doesn't prompt you for a code. But you are more than welcome to blow that 13 dollars
[HTC Rezound] i rule123:
He's right, actually I tried another site called www.htcimeiunlock.com when I first received the phone, I got an unlock code but couldn't enter it :( , and after talking to them for a day or two they said that they didn't know what to do and refunded my money

SMS Error

The rezound could not send out SMS Messege due to this Error Code

Error Code 65535

Class 3

Which is essentially the same problem that Thunderbolt user has been dealing with ? Anyone has the Thunderbolt ?

I've looked around on the internet. Some say changing the SMSC SMS Service Number (*#*#4636#*#*) would fix the issue of not being able to send out sms but does not work for me
[HTC Rezound] bluemoko:
Ok, finally after trial and error for almost 4 hours. I can confirm that the Rezound work 100% for Voice + Data on only one UMTS band which is 2100

on UMTS 900 SIM it does show connect to HSDPA but no data at all, i try all the method which recommend by "i rule123" but not working. No data connection at all

on UMTS 850 SIM it show connection as EDGE, still no data connection.

but once i swicth my phone to UMTS 2100 SIM card, i just enter APN and switch it to WCDMA prefer... then 3G just pop up instantly i do reboot restart and hard reset still UMTS 2100 SIM work 100% no trick no procedure what so ever. It just work :)
[HTC Rezound] i rule123:
Nice one mate!, and thanks for the information also.

Now again all we need is the annoying SMS to be FIXED!!!!!! :'(
[HTC Rezound] nbhnohome:
How do you switch to UMTS 2100 SIM card? I'm a little confused (are you saying that you have multiple sim cards from your carrier ?)

Thanks
[HTC Rezound] bluemoko:
Actually we have 4 mobile carriers here and each one operate on different UMTS band. I have 3 SIM from each one of them which are 850 900 and 2100.

So that why i'm able to test and confirm to you guys.
[HTC Rezound] jailbird2:
I picked up a GoPhone (3G) card from an AT&T store for a trip. Setting it to GSM or WCDMA Preferred both work for me for voice calls. The phone shows its connected to EDGE.
[HTC Rezound] rulasx:
I purchazed my rezound this new year's have been on verizon till today, im going to get the sim card tomorrow for my new gsm 4g service with Simple Mobile $60 Unlimited Plan . if i can be of any help to run test on my cell im available at least for the simple mobil carrier .:)
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
So you are breaking your verizon contract?

Also, I've read comments that they cut off the data at 1gb!!! These are from late 2010, so maybe they've changed, but be careful.

Also, simple mobile uses t-mobile, which requires 1700 and 2100 service, does the rezound have this built in?
[HTC Rezound] bigsnack:
If you look a few posts up bluemoko said he was able to get data working on UMTS 2100 bands. He didn't give any info on the 1700 bands, so the Rezound may support it, but it could be only for voice.
[HTC Rezound] Lomallin:
Not sure if this helps in the testing, but I came across an app called 4G Toggle.

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.wmba.android.toggle4gforrazr&hl=en

The cool thing about it is when you open it for the first time, on the Rezound, it prompts to open phone settings or Radio Info. If you select Radio Info, it pops you right into the screen that you can change radio settings on.

I didn't see this mentioned, so I wanted to add it for those that didn't want to type *#*#4636#*#*.
[HTC Rezound] DronM:
Sorry for the stupidity but I do not understand from just reading:

phone works in GSM EDGE networks or not ??? :)
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
What carrier do u get 3g on?
[HTC Rezound] empiremaster23:
if the rezound actually uses the 2100 umts band, then it should work and get 3g in japan right? same in major Australian cities? can anyone confirm?
[HTC Rezound] k8826324:

SMS Sending FIX --- Hopefully it works for you guys

1/ Call your Phone Carrier or look around on the internet and ask for the "SMSC Number".

If you're on AT&T or US T-Mobile, here are the codes

AT&T: +13123149810 (Actual Number) = 0713121139418f0 (PDU format - You need this)

T-Mobile: +12063130004 (Actual Number) = 07912160130300f4 (PDU format - You need this)

2/ Follow the Instruction from here

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/SMSC_Updates

SMSC number (+.......) to PDU format Conversion Web if you can't access from the above link http://www.twit88.com/home/utility/sms-pdu-encode-decode

Hope this helps

UPDATE

If you get UPDATE ERROR, under *#*#4636#*#*, you can try this (has been confirmed to work with AT&T)

+ Install GOSMS from Market

+ Go to Settings -> Advanced -> Send Settings -> Enable customized SMSC -> Enter SMSC number obtained from Phone Carrier (REAL NUMBER NOT the PDU
[HTC Rezound] bigsnack:
What will that do?
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
Did you read what the link said?

There are 2 ways to receive and send SMS messages a, PDU (protocol discription unit) and Text mode. In this page we focus on PDU mode, which is what Android 2.3 and higher recognize. The SMS messages travel through the SMSC gateway to send and receive. A common symptom of a badly configured SMSC is your device is able to receive SMS' but not send (usually reporting as sent, but without reception on the receiving end).

This looks like a viable solution, hope it works!
[HTC Rezound] bigsnack:
I take it if I go abroad and this works I could just easily ask the carrier I am on for this info?
[HTC Rezound] i rule123:

Ttry the GOSMS method with real +..... numbers as shown
[HTC Rezound] plcline:
Per HTC Tech Specs on the Rezound it has the MDM9600 Chip

From Qualcomm press:

Gobi-enabled MDM9600 supports CDMA2000® 1X, EV-DO Rev. B, SV-DO, SV-LTE, UMTS, HSPA+ and LTE. All of the new chipsets support FDD LTE and TDD LTE modes and different carrier bandwidths, and are capable of using orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) and multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) antenna technology to support peak data rates of up to 100 Mbps on the downlink and 50 Mbps on the uplink.

[HTC Rezound] Tsail83:
I spent a good deal of time on the phone yesterday with Verizon trying to get the unlock codes. I asked to speak with tech support where I was told that unlocking the phone would void my warranty..... of course I knew that wasn't right so i asked to transferred to the global support people.

Global support told me that the software to run the rezound on gsm wasn't available. I explained to the rep that I was looking at the phone options and that there was the ability to use this phone over seas with a different sim card. I was told that because Verizon has not "sanctioned" this as a global phone that the unlock codes did not exist and there for I would not be able to use it on anything but Verizon cdma/lte........

I continuously distrust Verizon so I continued my search online for the codes, even went to several pay for unlock code web sites and found that the ones I have been referred to in the past did not have the phone unlock code...

Who specifically do I have to talk to at Verizon or where directly can I go to get the sim unlock code?
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
I'd be willing to bet they weren't lying to you--they may very well not have unlock codes for the Rezound, since it isn't marketed as a world phone. There may simply not be the support infrastructure.
[HTC Rezound] loyalhtc:
but why would u try to get the unlock codes wen someone said that the codes aint needed. is the codes needed to try solve the sms problems?
[HTC Rezound] eXecuter.bin:
The phone isn't fully capable on gsm network, therefore it's safe to say that it isn't capable at all to avoid further accidental purchases.
[HTC Rezound] loyalhtc:
yh i was curious because, i soon would be leaving the usa to a overseas country. wanted to ensure it would work.... so basically it might work on the gsm network but not to its ful capability.

this thread need to be renewed
[HTC Rezound] bigsnack:
Well the phone/calling portion from keeping up with this threads seems like the greatest change of working, while data may or may not work, but it is working on T-Mobile over in the UK. Sending a SMS on the other hand doesn't seem to work yet, and there may or may not be a solution.

PDU number and GOSMS method for texting

Hey everybody, noob here!

I just got a rezound from my friend and am currently on at&t network, I followed the forum and the phone has been working well with at&t (except for the inability to send texts). I tried out the method nbhnohome had posted and also tried gosms, but no luck :(. Please forgive my ignorance, the last smartphone i used was an iphone 3g, which I bought about 3 years ago. Anyways, back to the main point, I have a couple of questions.

1) Is there any other way this problem can be fixed, since I am on an at&t network? Do different areas have a different SMSC number(haven't tried it out with a different number yet)?

2) I tried to find out whether I can unlock it, but googling it showed me about bootloader unlock, I don't wanna risk bricking my phone as I haven't unlocked a phone for like 3 years and all the technical lingo made me dizzy ..lol, :D Can this problem be fixed by a bootloader unlock ( I mean use the phone with at&t and make calls and texts without any problems, not too worried about data as I use wifi)

3) Is there any other app that uses wifi and sends the text by the number we use instead of a new number generated by the app(like text plus)?

Thank you!
[HTC Rezound] i rule123:
Hey

First off congrats on going to ANDROID! :D (Like me I had iPhone 4) Android is just much better. Okay here we go

1. At the moment there is no fix, but we have got the word that JoelZ (a developer) might be working on a fix/solving the problem :):):D:D

2. No I have unlocked my HTC Rezound (Not a hard thing to do) and this defiantly doesn't fix the issue, but I would suggest doing this as when a fix is found (because the issue is thought to be a framework issue) you may have to flash it which requires a custom recovery.

3.I'm not to sure but I use whatsapp to send texts (the recipient has to have whatsapp to send a text to them). This uses your DATA/Wi-Fi to send the text and is okay to use for now as most of my friends have it.
[HTC Rezound] rezounder:
Thank you so much....yeah, I've been using what'sapp for a long time since i had my iphone, but I guess we just have to wait for the fix to be released and use a crappy phone for the time being...and btw, is there a thread where it shows the step by step process to unlock the phone?

[HTC Rezound] jimbo.levy:
This is driving me mad now. My carrier uses 2100 band and I am confused as to why the data still won't work despite trying various methods, including some of my own. Fml =[[[[[[
[HTC Rezound] jimbo.levy:
Ok, so forgive me if this sounds selfish but I think I might have a fix for not having data on my carrier (Three, UK).

I noticed that people have been talking about acquiring a data connection but then losing it upon installing the OTA. Also, it was mentioned that data was also achieved using a 2100 UMTS SIM card without having to use a specific method (just switch to WCDMA and voila!).

According to Wikipedia, my carrier operates on a 2100mhz UMTS band and should theoretically work immediately, although it doesn't. Which then brings me back to the subject of the OTA.

I believe the OTA might be the cause of the data problems and if I were able to revert back, data might be possible.

So my question is: is it possible to revert back, and if so, how?

Also, can someone please tell me if I'm using the OTA? =S
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
Yes you do have the OTA. You can tell by the software number. It starts with 2.01 as opposed to 1.02.

For going back to out of the box, I think this would be the method that you would need. Go to the dev section and look for mrbacht thread about the mainver issue fix. Set the mainver down to 1.00.000.00.

Get the RUU for 1.02, do a Google search for RUU_Vigor

Relock the phone.

Run the RUU.

Again I don't know if this will downgrade your radio or not, but its the best that I can think of.

Also this will wipe your phone back to brand-spankin new.

Don't bother downgrading to 1.02, I'm still on it and I have no data. Like I said before Verizon must of broke something otherwise we wouldn't be having these issues. Hopefully a dev finds a fix but don't hold your breath...

Really like the phone. Just got it and I got it online with 3G / HSPA without any hassle. Only problem I have is that I bought 2 replacement batteries (not oem) and they wont charge.

Also bought an Extended battery with cover and it works perfect. Guess the aftermarket ones are not good. Tried charging for hours on usb and wall charger.

What rom are you guys running? Stock with root or maybe one of the ICS roms?

Congrats man!, and I believe there is a thread in 'HTC Rezound General' section that shows you how to charge the batteries :) just give it a search.

And I have used all sorts of ROM's (Gingerbread and ICS), but ICS is not complete yet so I always use Inffablis v1.3 (spelt it wrong I think) as it is the fastest ROM with most tweaks/customizations and also is the fastest, and you can get rid of the annoying 'SIM Card is from an unknown source' message on the lockscreen with this ROM (How-to in this thread)

Hope this helps! and Congrats again! :D

Get a cheapo generic stand alone battery charger from eBay and don't even try to charge the cheapo batteries while in the phone. Simply switch out the battery in the phone when it is depleted. That way your phone will always be mobile as you never have to restrict its mobility by connecting it to the charger.

You're probably right. And I might get a oem battery as well.

Hopefully someone can get the sms working as the phone is great in all other ways.
