Good luck on your boards, and whatever else it is you do on your non tech life.

I need to find 8 (i think that's the max thanks per day) of your posts every day for at least a week.

[HTC Rezound] warpurlgis:
I just read an article on droid life that had a letter from HTC about the Rezound. The letter said the Rezound would have an ICS update by the end of July beginning of August.
[HTC Rezound] Neo:

and an official source drop, or another aosp kernel in the future. But mostly patience

Here's one from the EVO

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=26565624

Modifying the PRL is pretty much a standard mod for any sprint customer on any of their phone due to crappy reception.. normally do it to force the phone into roaming for better reception... Only draw back is sprint has a roaming cap that they have a clause in the contract to boot you if they feel (happened to me)..

I'm thinking the same thing should work in this case, pull the prl off the phone, and manually enter when running cm/your kernel... Sure its an extra step but maybe a fix.

Edit: if it helps, I'm on PRL 15130
[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
Interesting, but I don't think it will help. I think (correct me if I'm wrong) you put the new PRL right back where it belongs and the phone reads it from there. Unless I can get it to read the sim we'll have to put it, along with some other info in another place and force the phone to get it from there. As of right now I'm not sure how to do that.

Anyway, day 2 of my board exam, freedom after this. Cheers.
[HTC Rezound] live2die:
Cheers！
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
What about if you force the prl to update the sim? Dial *22899
[HTC Rezound] Jmrwbilly:
Good point, didn't think of that, do all HTC store on the sim? This is my first HTC, but I know the thunderbolt and incredible do..my question is does the sim just load it to the phone? I can remove my sim and still get a signal... If that's the case, just need to figure out where it loads to and push it to there

[HTC Rezound] TXI Kaze:
Droid 3 used a SIM card, actually. Just remembered that. I don't know why unless it's because it's a global phone.
[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
Okay so the deal is that the SIM card actually is accessible, there is just no method for utilizing it built into the HTCQualcommRIL that CM has. The issue is that it uses an RUIM which obviously has three different SIM "apps" on it, SIM, USIM, and CSIM. Since its a CDMA network, naturally it has to use the CSIM app, however the HTCQualcommRIL only differentiates between SIM and USIM and tosses everything else out as unsupported. If I force it to read the CSIM like the others, it restarts the radio in GSM mode and doesn't work. So I think it might work for GSM right now, but not cdma/lte.

The good news is that the android RIL does have the ability to handle it, I just have to write something that will say hey use the CSIM app AND stay in cdma mode.

I need a couple radio logs on different firmwares. Power your phone off, power it on and do:

./adb logcat -b radio

Let it run until it finishes booting and you have signal etc. Then attach it here or pastebin it or whatever. I also need to know what firmware / ROM your running.

Thanks.

Waited until it got to a 4G Signal. It booted up and at first gave me 1x which i never got. Boot time also seemed to be faster but i definitely hit power off. Hope it helps! Latest ICS ruu and kernal, business ICS sense 3.6 v5.2
[HTC Rezound] Po1soNNN:
sorry mines a little long. im not sure what you guys do to get it my way added a bunch of unnecesary stuff because i waited a little too long to dump to a txt file.

what i did is opened two cmd windows.

in the first one i typed:

adb logcat -b radio

and in the second one i typed:

adb logcat -b radio -d > logcat.txt

i executed the first one and waited till it had received service (i waited a little too long) and executed the second one. I know its a little lengthy and im sure theres an easier way but im a novice so i dont really know what to do.

[HTC Rezound] d.kozzer:
So, apooligies if this has been explained already (this *is* a long thread! :P ), but if RIL is figured out and implemented, it'll open the door to get "pure" AOSP on the Rezound? Any way it would eventually allow a kanged version of CM10?
[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
One step at a time.

I still don't make any promises, I'm just working on it the best I can.
[HTC Rezound] d.kozzer:
Yeah, I didn't mean to assume we'd have anything by next week or nothing. Just asking in a theoretical sense, so I have a better idea of what getting a working RIL would do for us over the long term. In any case, thanks for your efforts!
[HTC Rezound] kain72:
So far I haven't seen anyone else make this kind of progress. The best you can is pretty damn good in my opinion. This gives me hope for what's to come for this phone. Thanks for all your work.
[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
So it looks to me like RIL gets all the CDMA info in GSM format and then passes it over the the cdmaSST. Its a complete mess but it explains why the radio logs look like this:

I/GSM ( 528): Creating CDMAPhone

I think it might be similar to this:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/544de1a65d5570165ae6da13fb36d109e1e4f3ec

That exact approach doesn't seem to work though. I think I'm going to try to contact that individual and see if he can help me out.
[HTC Rezound] Reaper0294:
That's pretty interesting. Good luck!
[HTC Rezound] Bensky91:
Interesting. You might also try talking to newtoroot as I believe he's working on the same problem or has possibly solved it already. Apparently he's working on an AOKP port.

[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
If he already got it we'd all know. I'm sure he's in the same boat.

Not going to help, that's for hacking sense roms, not reverse engineering and writing a new RIL.

I already shot him one e-mail, no worries. His RIL fix for the t-bolt is pretty involved though and as a result doesn't work for ICS. I'm trying to work more with the existing AOSP source and figure out where I can make minimal changes so that its more portable in the future. Everything we need SHOULD be in here, its getting it all to work together correctly without over complicating it is the issue.

[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:

[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
Sorry, nothing yet. I'm not sure if I should be more angry at HTC or vzw. I think I'm going to pick up a prepaid gsm card. I'm willing to bet it'll work with that, but that's no help for 90% of us.
[HTC Rezound] badogg:
Is it because of how they did it? From what you described it almost sounded like a band aid they put in to get it to work?
[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
Yeah. They did all this round about stuff instead of just making their radio libs use what is already in ICS. There are already classes in place in ICS for lte on cdma devices because of the vzw gnex, but since they released with GB they just added stuff to do what they needed. Then instead of fixing their libs, they elected to bring the same band-aid over to ICS. It boils down to laziness on HTCs part... and even with their laziness they can't even get updates out to us in a timely manner. I'm really thinking this is going to be my last HTC and my last Verizon phone.
[HTC Rezound] live2die:
sorry to hear that:(
[HTC Rezound] dogswind:
I feel ya. After the Thunderbolt and Rezound, I probably won't buy HTC again. Not under Verizon for sure.
[HTC Rezound] runagt2:
It's sad but I feel the same way. I bought this Rezound when I lost my Incredible because the Incredible was the best phone I ever had and I thought the Rezound would be an improvement -- especially because I knew Chad was on board. I have to replace the digitizer and I thinking I'll trade to a Nexus within a couple weeks. I don't think I can stay with Verizon much longer after the Share Everything BS and the fiasco with the SGS3 bootloader and the unsubsidized developer edition. T-Mobile prepaid plus SIP on the next Nexus, sounds good to me!
[HTC Rezound] killahrey:
Please do :D, If you can get umts working, I will say good bye to verizon, and a sweet hello to aosp, and oh hey T-Mo long time no see.
[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
I said that after the Thunderbolt. Then got lured in by the $50 promotion for the Rezound. SO angry I wasted my last upgrade on this turd.

This will for sure be my last HTC device.
[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
Do you know where I can get a cheap 1 month gsm prepaid SIM with a little bit of data so I can test it out? I checked out T-mo but it looks like you need an activation code that you bought the phone from them.

Edit: I found it on tmo, but its not exactly cheap if you didn't get the phone from them.
[HTC Rezound] quepaso:
So chad, basically the problem is that the LTE is hacked on since it released on GB, and then taken that hack and hacked on further in ICS instead of proper method that the newer phones use? Seems like a reasonable reason why so many new LTE phones have AOSP but the HTC ugly ducklings (Tbolt, Rezound) both are without. Really enjoy reading this thread, if you need us to reach out to other devs and ask, please let us know!

[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
can anyone suggest this freezing I'm getting? have to turn the screen off and on to unfreeze it. only way I got this working on cleanrom was flashing the boot.img first,wipe data,flashed rom,flashed kernel zip for recovery and ignored the hboot zip.
[HTC Rezound] Taebom:
I too have this problem on rez rom with this kernel
[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
Your best bet is to wait for the next release. I'm working out the bugs. The rezound is a bit more finicky than the inc was so its taking a bit to nail everything down.

Everyone, thanks for the input.
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
I'd like to add making this kernel easier to flash since some roms need the boot.img flashed before installing the zip for within recovery,the more it's like flashing on an inc the better
[HTC Rezound] Kane5581:
Incredicontrol wont hold my settings, Everytime I go in there its back to 15??? I set it to 129???, it takes it, then when I come back it still says its set to 129???? but the actual is going to the stock 15???, maybe a problem with super user? idk, anyone?
[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
There really is no easier way. Kernels have to be flashed through hboot and the modules have to be flashed through recovery...

Currently the zip flashes the modules through recovery and then automatically pulls your ramdisk (so you can keep the ramdisk included with your ROM if there were changes made to it), packages the kernel and ramdisk into a boot.img, zips it, places it where it needs to go on your SDcard and reboots into hboot for you. That's about as easy as it gets.

It might be "easier" for some if I just provided a boot.img and modules (which you would have to flash and push separately anyway). However, that doesn't keep your current ramdisk and with the advent of AOSP roms its likely that the ramdisk will be different. So for someone to flash it and keep their current ramdisk they would have to image their boot partition, unpack the image, unpack my boot.img, swap in the new kernel, repackage it and flash.

So unfortunately, without s-off, this is how its gotta be. Everyone will get used to it eventually.
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
thanks for the details on that.didnt think it be different vs the Inc since only difference is we don't have s-off which I only thought was impacting radios. you learn something new everyday lol
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
Make sure you are on the lastest version which is beta3 I believe. And have you disabled perlock? And checked set on boot? And uninstalled other CPU apps or made sure they are set to the same settings?
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
Make sure u have the latest version. Beta3 I think. Make sure you don't have another CPU app conflicting with it. It might do that if you disable perflock too...

Or u could try re installing IncrediControl if that other stuff is in check
[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
One interesting thing I have noticed.. I've tried a good amount of the cpu controller apps: Antutu, set cpu, incredi control, no frills. When I bench antutu and I'm sure the speed changes are active, I don't get any score increases if I use anything but set cpu. Of course before trying another app I clear all the data and uninstall the application. This has happened on all the kernels, not too sure what to make of it.
[HTC Rezound] Kane5581:
Done, still wont hold settings. I have just flashed a new rom and flashed the kernal again and still doesn't work, it takes it when I put it in, then when I come back the bar is still set where I put it but the actual clock goes back to stock speeds. I tap the bar where it already is and the clock goes back to where it should be, rinse and repeat. How do I disable perflock? I know setcpu does it but I dont see it anywhere else.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
Hmm. I've used antutu CPU master pro to disable it. Setcpu doesn't like some kernelz :( lol

I understand your interest in LTE. HTC made one of the first LTE devices released in the US. This was the Thunderbolt.

I’m not entirely clear on what you are describing, Steaven. Would you mind clarifying ‘hacked on’ for me? This will help me to understand the difficulties you are experiencing. I look forward to your reply and hope you have a great weekend!

Why not reach out to them? they seem to listen to customers, whats the worse they can say, no?
[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
I wouldn't say hacked on just because that has a negative connotation and we don't want to anger them. Plus that was just an affirmation of what someone else said. I worded it a little different. They implemented their own method of dealing with it. Plus who knows how much they got from Qualcomm and what was forced on them from vzw.

What would be useful is if they had some documentation they were willing to share that would allow us to write our own ril that will work with their libs.
