Some folks just have an aversion to awesomeness, Nils. Don't take it personally. :D

---------- Post added at 11:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:11 AM ----------

I'm loving having my kindle books and Dock Mode back, but I'm missing some elements of your 4.0 ROM, like the camera and the sounds.

For your next update, would it be possible to do a mod where a long press on the back button killed whatever process you were running? That would be awesome. And I'd really like to have your Sense 4 sounds available on this ROM.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I am suspecting he does not like arrows and may not realize there is one up top with no arrows.

I am working on the sound but so far it likes 3.5 and 4.0 but hates 3.6. I am gonna win.

I think the kill might work so let me see what I can do for a mod.
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
Awesome thanks.

I'm gonna put dsb's Cubed kernel on and see how it does. I'm seeing posts about successfully undervolting as much as 100mV across the board. Dunno if I'd take it that far but I'm gonna try 50 once it's booted and .stable
[HTC Rezound] jimbiss:
OK I will give that a try. I'm just used to the stock keyboard. I am on the one without arrows now.

Thanks Nil
[HTC Rezound] Sheldor1967:
FWIW, I always install Swiftkey 3 on every Rom I flash...I love the business sense look, but Swiftkey is really flexible. It really speeds up my typing with it's predictive assistance and I can adjust long key press time (I like it really short) as well as how much haptic feedback you get when you type (I like it very faint). If it's possible to adjust these things on HTC's keyboard, I would use yours, but I never found those in my searches...
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
:)

Swype for me.

Looks like everything is pretty stable; so its time to go from "I downloaded it and had no trouble" to "I'll install it because I won't have trouble" :) Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] stuartv:
Swype for me, too. I've been running the Global RUU for almost 2 weeks, I think. I'm just waiting to install this after the All Clear from Nils that the install issue with Amon Ra is fixed.
[HTC Rezound] rfarrah:
Swype for me, too.

And FWIW, I've had no issues with Amon Ra. This ROM ROCKS!
[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
Ok, so I still have this issue with the browser. I did a full wipe and reinstall and it still persists, so I figure I will report it to see if anyone else has the problem and if Nils can replicate it. The keyboard doesn't show when attempting to Reply or Quick Reply to posts here on XDA.

1) I get an email at my GMAIL that a reply has been posted.

2) I follow the link to the browser

3) I touch Reply or Quick Reply

4) I touch the box to start typing.

5) The cursor shows up, but the keyboard never appears. I have to revert to then going to the XDA app and doing it there. I would rather do it in the browser.

I have the Trace Keyboard turned on. I tried turning it off and the same thing. Can anyone else replicate this issue?
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Welp

I learned long ago to not assume about what people know and don't know, so I will simply state, in response to this and the post to which it refers, that it is possible the person is on the sidelines until the OTA function have been repaired to work with Amon Ra. I do not believe the OTA function, in and of itself, would sufficiently merit staying away.
[HTC Rezound] stuartv:
I thought some posts from just a page or 2 back talked about some issue with the install where it works fine with TWRP or CWM, but there is a problem with Amon Ra and the user has to just manually find a zip file and choose it to install.

Maybe that WAS something to do with installing an OTA update. Even so, I'd rather wait for a release where that is fixed so that the first time there's an OTA update available, I don't have a problem then because I loaded the version of the ROM that is available today. I would definitely like to get back on a Nils ROM. But, honestly, the Global RUU with the ADW Ex launcher is pretty darn good just by itself.
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Yup

Yes, that had to do 100% with Nils' OTA feature (something I am not so sure I would use in any event).
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Not sure the AR problem is going to be fixed. It is an AR problem on how it handles what is passed to it.

All it means is that for AR it will boot to recovery and the zip has to be installed manually.

Still easier than downloading, copy to card, boot to recovery and manually install the zip since it will already be on the card.

Just happens that CWM and TWRP do it right.

Should add that the problemb is that AR can't mount the card until you select "install zip"
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
TWRP is a great Recovery.
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
Im good with that on AR, still easy enough.

I was wondering if you could pull ringtones and notification sounds from 4.0 and incorporate them into this rom. I do like the 4.0 sounds. I think I read that you are working on it, if so, Thanks Nil's
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I agree. The only reason I like CWM better is using it with ROM Manager.

Side note: I keep a version of each that work and only test new versions from the market to see what he breaks.
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
I loved cwm when We were on the Dinc, I thought we could not use cwm w/ the Rezound? dont remember why, but it was something bad
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Clarification on Post 3?

Nils - Clarification?

Post 3 says you need to run the RUU to get the latest ICS firmware ("Good Idea"), but you previously mentioned that those of us on ICS leak only needed to update the radio, and then run your updater which would update the kernel, etc. Is the "ruu" truly necessary?

Thanks
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Need to set use external and quick in RM settings. Then need to copy folder from internal to external and all is good. May not have to do the folder anymore.

Also the version in the market has a bug so need an older version of RM
[HTC Rezound] stuartv:
Thanks, Nils.

I think, when I first rooted my Rezound, there were issues with CWM. If it's all good now, I'll probably change over to that anyway.

And I will update to your Global ROM as soon as I have time.
[HTC Rezound] rfarrah:
Hmmmmm. Very interesting conversation. Makes me want to give TWRP a test drive.
[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
Indeed...now to go find that thread.........
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
If you are S-ON the only way to go is the RUU

If you are S-OFF all you need to do is install the radio which by the way is what I did.

And yes, either way I will install the kernel for you when the correct option is selected in the installer
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
:)

Thank you for the response ... that is what I did and I am proud to be on your 6.0.

Two other questions, if possible:

1) How does one access Google Now? I thought a version was on the phone; and

2) is there a way to change the new soft buttons (which I love)

Thank you!
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Since I am not sure if AmonRa recovery will ever be fixed to work with the OTA Updater correctly I highly recommend either CWM or TWRP to take full advantage of the OTA in the future.

If you are not interested in using ROM Manger either install CWM 5.8.1.4 or TWRP via the instructions in their respective threads.

If you want the combination of ROM Manager and CWM I posted a working copy in post 3 with instructions.

If I see that AmonRa is still the majority of users I may just drop support for the OTA Updater in the future
[HTC Rezound] answerman:
Nicely done, Nils. Finally S-OFFed and have been running your Sense 4.0 for the past week or so, and just today ran the Global RUU and installed your 3.6 v6.0. Now I remember why I always used your ROMs when I had my Incredible.

Donation should be coming your way shortly. Hopefully it's enough for a night out for you and the significant other.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
1) Press and hold search button then set it up via the menu > settings

2) Not sure what you mean
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Not necessary but very much appreciated.

Enjoy
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
AmonRa never really grew on me, even tho Im still using it, only because I thought I had to. I would love to try out CWM, I miss it, but it will need to wait until the weekend, just started wiring a new retail store today
[HTC Rezound] stuartv:
Please don't drop the OTA Updater!

I have been using AR because that's what was working when I first rooted and I haven't had a reason to change since then. Now, you've given me a reason to change. I have now downloaded both TWRP and CWM.

I don't use ROM Manager and I have never tried TWRP, so I think I'll give that a shot.

You said I need to install either of those with fastboot. Can't I just copy one over to my interal SD and rename it to PH98IMG.zip, then reboot? Then delete it after?

I am S-Off.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Has to be done from a PC

Put the recovery file in the same folder you have fastboot.exe on your PC

ON THE PHONE:

Reboot to bootloader

Go into fastboot (It will say USB FASTBOOT

ON THE PC:

Open a CMD window

Change to the folder adb and recovery file is in

Type: fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Where xxxxxxx is the exact name of the recovery you are installing

There is actually a tool for making this easy but I don't have the link handy
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
# 2

On the bottom there are now buttons for phone - messages - all apps - internet - camera. Would love to change them.
[HTC Rezound] Jacrushar:
I'm with this guy.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Kinda thought that is what you meant

For the ones on the launcher drag the ones you want to remove to the upper right just like any icon on your screen

Then just drag the app you want to the launcher position you want it in.

For the ones on the lockscreen go into settings > personalize > display and it is there
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
Hasoon's all in one toolkit with do it all for you, just start the program and hit flash,

its right here-----http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1604439
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Thanks. I was having a brain freeze at the time I posted

I forget these things since I have a folder with adb,fastboot and batch files for installing recoveries, radios etc by just drag and droping the file on the appropriate batch file. It then reboots to the correct mode and installs
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
you work on the hard stuff and i'll take care of the easy stuff, since that is all Im good for. Also enjoy being your guinea pig ;)
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Don't underestimate your value here

I think I need to start making donations to you folks.:D
[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
...and that only works if you have an unlocked, or edited bootloader. The TWRP Touch thread has an HBOOT flashable zip file that you can use if you don't have an HBOOT that supports the fastboot commands.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I tend to forget some people are not S-OFF with custom HBOOT
[HTC Rezound] douger1957:
Touch and hold the button you want to change...move it either to your home screen or the trash, touch and hold the app icon you want in the quick launch...move it to the quick launch bar.
[HTC Rezound] Sheldor1967:
Yeah, I stayed with the stock hboot since I don't like working from the pc, but I reckon I should get over that..
[HTC Rezound] stuartv:
TWRP loaded and running an initial backup. Thanks!

I actually had a CMD file I had created for flashing the original AR recovery. Obviously, I was mistaken in thinking that once I was unlocked, rooted, and S-Off, I could flash a new Recovery by just putting a PH98IMG.zip file out there.

Anyway.... sweet! Next up, flashing Nils' 6.0 over the top of my Global RUU.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Thanks for the donation

Very much appreciated
[HTC Rezound] rfarrah:
Just flashed that and am now rolling with TWRP. Pretty cool. Doing a backup now....
[HTC Rezound] Jacrushar:
I'll be heading over to this as soon as 6.1 comes out with tweaks. Would also love to see beats with the Bluetooth like with the sense 4 Rom. Right now I'm fine with your sense 4 ROM, I've had no problems with it so far. What parts of the global ruu work for the sense 4 Rom again? I haven't really spent much time looking for where that was said.
[HTC Rezound] pvndpk:
I am on offcial ics ota..i have unlocked via htcdev..

Can any one tell me to install recovery with s on?also which recovery will work with s on..
[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
How about you stop posting the same thing in multiple threads?
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Problem I experienced on 6.0

Nils,

So far the only issue I have run into is that the phone display does not come back on automatically once you pull the phone away from your head during a call. The proximity sensor does turn off the screen in each instance, but did not ever turn it back on. SO, when I went to check voicemail, and i listened to the prompts, I had to push the power button to get the screen back on to push 1, listened to the prompts, had to push the power button to get the screen back to enter my password, etc. On 5.7 (and earlier), pulling it away from your face would bring the screen right back up again.

Anyone else run into this?

Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] stuartv:
I haven't tried that yet. But, I just loaded this ROM and one of the first things I noticed is somewhat related.

When I go into VVM, there are only 2 tabs at the bottom. There used to be 3 - All, Voicemails, SMS/MMS. Now, there are only All and SMS/MMS. I really prefer to use the tab for only Voicemails when I click the icon for VVM. I have a separate icon for Messages to deal with my SMS/MMS.

Nils, is this a change you made? I'm guessing it must be? Since I'm 99% sure the Global OTA RUU that I was running still had all 3 tabs. Well, okay, maybe 80% sure. :D

---------- Post added at 10:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:14 PM ----------

Well, the problem is worse than I thought. It appears that I can't actually listen to any of the messages in my VVM at all. They display (mixed in with the SMS and MMS messages I have). But when I tap on a voice mail message, it doesn't do anything. Help?! :(
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
That is because VVM is not in the ROM. You need to install it.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Have not run into that. Will check it out.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Should work as long as you wipe cache and dalvik
[HTC Rezound] jscarano:
What about coming from a GB rom?
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
next is first. no skip!
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Probably not until I fix install setup
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Some say next and some say skip just pick skip if you can and when only next pick it
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
Trying this now.
[HTC Rezound] Tmask32:
Not sure how to do that if I cant boot or go into recovery.
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
Do you have another phone or a computer that has a slot for a sdcard?
[HTC Rezound] couchmonkey:
Hey did the wake on volume disappear from the settings?
[HTC Rezound] Tmask32:
Yeah when i get out of work I'll stick it in my computer.
[HTC Rezound] ih8mydroid:
My bad, first it was Next then it was Skip(for verizons backup)

And just to update Nils, nothing would get me past the white HTC screen on my second go through setup.
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
Here's what I do when I don't have a computer handy to wipe the PH98IMG.zip:

Pull the back cover off and lift the battery so you can get to the SD card

Pull the SD card out ever so slightly, only so it isn't making contact

Partially Install the battery, allowing it to just make contact enough to power up the phone

Vol Down / Power button to get into bootloader. The phone will look for the SD card, but not see it.

Ease the SD card back in carefully and properly insert the battery, being careful not to break the connection. If connection is interrupted, obviously the phone will shut down and you'll have to start over.

Now using the volume keys, go into recovery like usual and restore your backup.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
This problem actually existed in the leaked version and I am trying to find out how Scott and Joel fixed it.

Honestly, everytime I do a fresh install I can next or skip through everything until setup stops and click OK and get through it.
[HTC Rezound] Tmask32:
Thanks, didnt think of that.
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
Whoever it was who said "Necessity is the mother of invention" was dead on.

One day when the mainver issue first got attention, I goofed bad on a kernel install and had to get real creative real quick. :o
[HTC Rezound] Tmask32:
fffeewww, got 1.4 back up and running. With Macgyver like skills.
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
anybody tried the overwrite file yet?
[HTC Rezound] Skynx72:
Is there any way we can get the volume wake up back?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Later. I forgot to put it in
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
OK, I'm up and running on v2.0

I flashed v1.4 and did a very basic setup, only logging into Gmail/Market. Then I flashed v2.0 over it with a Dalvik wipe via ClockworkMod, and I am rockin'!

Thanks Nils!
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Working on both but they are giving me fits

Radio works with 4.0
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Look in the recovery threads not ROM threads for you answer
[HTC Rezound] eman3316@optonline.net:
So if we are S-Off it looks like we do not need to re-lock the bootloader?

If we want to flash the latest ICS leak will we need to do the wire trick after we flash it or all that is needed is the install of the recovery once flashed and we are good to go?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
You will not lose s-off

Just need to install an hboot and recovery. hboot optional

Save yourself the trouble and just flash the radio
[HTC Rezound] MARKREIF:
Hey Nils - is getting the HTC News widget into your ROM doable? Or is there an apk/zip or link that you are aware of that gives one the option of installing it independent of your ROM as an alternative? Thanks
[HTC Rezound] gr8nole:
This seems to be an issue with all the global roms.
[HTC Rezound] paulhoop:
Also sometimes a physical issue with the proximity sensor. Try blowing it out with compressed air.
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Not so sure

Prox sensor works like a champ when moving to the face; so I am not sure it is the prox sensor. Pulling it away from the face is simply not turning the screen back on; at least within voicemail (if that matters, which it shouldn't and it is just a phone call).

Anyway, just wanted to report it. Thanks all.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Beats Mod

I think I have made some strides with Beats and other audio sound

I need someone to flash this in recovery and let me know if you see/hear improvements.

I do believe it increases all volumes but only shows the Beats notification in the music player.
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
I won't have car access til after work, but I'll flash it now and help any way I can.
[HTC Rezound] Jacrushar:
Where can I get just the radios to flash? cause I'm S-Off.
[HTC Rezound] lepa71:
Does CWM still have issues with Rezound? That was the reason I installed AmonRa long time ago. I used CWM and ROM manager(premium) everywhere else.

In main post you recommend to change backup to external sd card, but it's disabled for me. Any thoughts?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Check the firmware thread in dev forum
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
See my writeup on CWM in post 3
[HTC Rezound] lepa71:
I saw it. did you modify ROM manager to make it work? Which recovery do you use?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
No, just use the version I posted. Anything later has problems.

Use the latest CWM that RM wants to install
[HTC Rezound] rfarrah:
I don't have plug-in headphones at the moment, but I tested it on my Bluetooth headset (FWIW). I think I read somewhere that you had to use a plug-in set in order to get Beats, but anyway....

It may be the placebo affect, but I agree that the bass sounds a little louder than it did before. No Beats notification that I can see.

HTH
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
With the plug-in headset I am hearing a much bigger difference when turning beats on and off in the enhancer then before. Truthfully with the stock Beats there was very little difference on and off and almost seemed to be backwards.

I still want to get the beats notification to come up when on BT but not yet.
[HTC Rezound] douger1957:
I'll let ya know when I walk the dog tonight.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
At least for me the built in Internet Browser in v6 is a little buggy. Selecting links and a little laggy especially.

Well I found a working replacement from one of my other ROM's that works pretty good.

Flash in recovery

Will be in the next release
[HTC Rezound] stuartv:
How? I searched the Play store for it and don't see it anywhere.

Plus, I'm confused. I was running the Global RUU and VVM was working fine. I flashed your ROM over the RUU and wiped cache/dalvik, but I didn't do a factory reset. So, shouldn't VVM still be installed? All my other apps were still there. I still have the VVM icon on my home screen.
[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
OMG thank you! I really hope this fixes all the issues I have been having with the browser. I almost went back to Chrome...which I didn't like for other reasons. I almost thought my little complaint a page or so back wasn't heard. Thanks again Nils. I'll report back if this fixes my issues...and even it if doesn't.

EDIT: It still hangs when I try to reply to a thread on XDA. The keyboard never shows up and the browser is just locked up. I press home, then go to task manager to kill the browser. Every time.
[HTC Rezound] Djay1809:
How can I id with Leak I have I know I'm on ICS, I Just Need to be sure before I Do the s-off. alot of times my phone shuts down before I even have the chance to look around.
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
Uhh... What?
[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
He wants to know how to identify what version of ICS he is running (which leak).

Post up your radio and kernel versions.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
When you flash a cutom ROM it erases everything in system so all system apps go away. So, no it should not still be there

Try this one. Just put it on your SDCARD and install like any other non-market app
[HTC Rezound] Djay1809:
Thank you, I do need to know how to navigate, there fast enough, to find out before my phone starts its reboot, and burning my battery.
[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
settings -> About phone -> Software Version -> More

Then post the following:

Kernel version

Baseband version

Build number

Or even better post a screen shot.
[HTC Rezound] douger1957:
I listened to Google Play Music while walking the pup. It seems a bit louder than before, but Beats?

I didn't try turning it off and on...but it didn't sound quite as rich as Beats does in your Sense 4.0 ROM.
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
I installed Joe Brady's HD camera. Don't. :D

It takes pics, but only the camera overlay shows up on the screen. So the screen is black, but the buttons and controls are all there.

And if you take a picture, it'll take it. I'd you go to review it in gallery, it works.

There's just no image on the screen while you're trying to take a pic.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I did not expect it to be as good as the 4.0 but its getting there.
[HTC Rezound] douger1957:
Louder in this ROM is better anyhow.

You'll get it, NilsP. :good:
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I like a good challenge once in awhile especially when there is no time pressure.

Seems the global only works on Sense 3.5 and 4.0 and I am trying to make it work on 3.6.
[HTC Rezound] stuartv:
Thanks a bunch, Nils!

After you posted this, it occured to me to try just restoring VVM from the Ti Backup I did right before upgrading to this ROM. I tried that and it just sat there saying "Restoring App" for something like 30 minutes. I finally rebooted my phone and tried it again, choosing restore App+Data. Same thing.

Finally, I downloaded the version you posted and installed it and it works just fine.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Great................
[HTC Rezound] JeramyEggs:
Hey Nils, I saw where you have links to clockworkmod, and was wondering if they are working out well? If they are, Dsb boosted a script where you can make backups while the phone is on, and in use. It would be a nice addition to your Rom, and just wanted to let you know. Thanks for hanging with us. You are the most newb friendly(all around friendly) developer we have.
