There hasn't been a new release of it. It's the same one. I swear. I don't understand y everyone is having issues with it. I've re-RUU'd my phone and re-installed the whole ROM. I've bootloader unlocked 5 other Rezounds and backed all of them up when I was done as well and still have not had an issue. Guess um just lucky... I can live with that.
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
it only rebooted once

---------- Post added at 05:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:58 PM ----------

it only rebooted once
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Did you ever get the "press power to boot" message in hboot? Sometimes after the first boot you need to boot back into bootloader to finish the install.
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
Any way to set the 4G adapter to automatically turn off while the screen is off?
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
I just got back from a 3 day cruise, including a quick stop in Ensenada, and Nils' ROM was the one I chose to run for the trip.

It was a great choice too, because the battery life was off the charts. The ROM was super stable, and the pix look great.

Thank you Nils!
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Great feedback. Thanks
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Sorry, can't find a way with the base ROM but there may be something in the market. Search for things like network profile or something like that.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Does the release of CWM you are using let you charge the battery with power off?

I can't take the chance that I kill my battery and can't charge it while dead.
[HTC Rezound] punman:
I'm not sure what in the world CWM would have to do with a phone in a power-off state when you're just dealing with a simple charge circuit.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I agree but it does not charge with CWM but does with AmonRa
[HTC Rezound] k2trill:
yes, I do believe it does, but I'm not sure. I'll have to try and find out some way.
[HTC Rezound] punman:
OK ... I didn't believe this ... but then I tried it.

Powered phone off, pulled battery to make sure it was really off. Put battery back in. Plugged phone in. Charge light flashes on for a couple seconds, then turns off.

Left it there for a minute to see if it would sort itself out, nope. Unplugged it, plugged it back in, and the damn thing turned itself on.

I'm officially baffled.

Edit: I'm working on this now, plugged in USB this time, it booted recovery, adb works, kernel is running, but nothing on screen, and all I did was plug it in. Looks like an old version though. Maybe Koush needs to get a 3.x kernel in CWM recovery? More after I keep digging.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
This has been driving me crazy. I have always been a CWM user and automatically purchased ROM Manager and Touch CWM and can't use it. I depend too much on recovery but it was inconsistent for me. Sometimes it was fine sometimes it failed.

Do you remember what had to be done to get backup and restore working on the SD Card? I remember something about having to create a file in the CWM folder on the SD Card or something like that.
[HTC Rezound] k2trill:
I didn't do any of that. I only used the settings I showed u and mine works fine.
[HTC Rezound] punman:
I wasn't aware of this but when you plug the phone in, it boots what looks like a mini-recovery kernel. I suspect something with this isn't supporting the battery charge. I am going to flash back to Amon Ra and see what the differences are.

Just select "backup to external SD card" in ROM Manager Settings. You might have to enable "advanced settings" to get the option.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
OK here is where I am as memories come back.

If you select backup to external and set progress off it does not actually turn off progress unless you copy the hideprogress file from internal to external. The bad part is the backup hangs if you don't copy the file.

When you select install ROM from SD Card it shows what is on the internal card to select not the external.

I have not tried a restore yet but I remember if you do it from RM it deletes the boot (kernel) but can't restore it due to s-on. Gonna test that in a minute.

EDIT: Backup and restore worked fine after copying the hideprogress file

EDIT: Just had to select internal from the menu when selecting install ROM from SD Card in RM
[HTC Rezound] punman:
Nils, check PM ... Messy but potential is there ...
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I replied. Thanks
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
Nils, thanks a lot for this Rom. It's great.

What kernel(s) can y'all recommend for longer battery?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
This ROM is tweaked for this kernel so I would stick with it.

So, I really have no recommendations.
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
do we absolutely need sd-ext? it seems to screw things up
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
What problems is it causing?
[HTC Rezound] punman:
I'm not even sure I understand your question. Are you asking if you need an external SD card? For daily use, no you don't "absolutely" need one if you can get away with only the internal storage. However, if your phone becomes unstable, sometimes the only way to get anything bootable on it is to load a PH98IMG.zip on a card and flash it from fastboot. In this case, the external SD card is absolutely necessary.

I don't even know what happens if you take the card out and try to boot the phone. Why would you even try? You seem to have so many issues that I'm not sure adding another potential problem is the best course of action. Have you tried what we all recommended? Format the SD card FAT32 or buy a new one and try that in the phone instead?
[HTC Rezound] k2trill:
Soooooo, you're n "Business" now??! :D
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
i have 16gb. its just my apps can't find anything. like backups for example. i just flushed and filled. no backups could be found. i copied everything from sd-ext and some apps could find old backups. i never had one til i got this phone. it's just confusing mostly. can't get a good picture of whats the file system is and how it works
[HTC Rezound] k2trill:
Sweeptowake...

me like, me like!! can we get it n 3.4 puhleeasee??!! lol

Sweep2Wake: No long do you need to use your power button to wake your phone. To wake your phone sweep your finger from the home button to the search button. Likewise to put your phone to sleep, sweep your finger from the search button to the home button.

[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Pretty much but did have to tweak a little like copying the hideprogress file to make it work.

Won't know for sure until I have to use it a few times to see if it is consistent.
[HTC Rezound] k2trill:
That's cool. at least u're getting wutchu paid for and it's integrated with RM. I can assure u tho that it's consistent. I use most of it's functions almost daily!
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
what? are they ruble? is there a download?

---------- Post added at 01:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:31 PM ----------

that was for a phone. not the app
[HTC Rezound] k2trill:
The link demonstrates how it works. It's not an app. It's a function like wake with volume. I think it's embedded n the kernel tho maybe. I like it.
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
I had the same problem last night. My previous Dinc had an internal storage too but all the backups were saved to an external sd card. However, this phone/Rom does it differently; it actually recognizes internal storage as an internal sd card. Hence, Root Explorer shows sdcard and sd card2. The second one is my sd card that has all the backups. When I install certain apps the rely on the internal storage for some reason and don't see the backups on my external sd card. I wish I could disable the internal sd card or prevent is somehow from being seen by certain apps. :mad:
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
yes. thank you. thats what i have been trying to say
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
What did you do to resolve this? After trying a few things the only option I came up with was the copy and paste certain stuff from my sd card to the internal one.
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
i did that and backed sd-ext first. rebooted. for some reason programs need it i think. thats what i'm not sure of. it got re-created
[HTC Rezound] punman:
The fact of the matter is, the internal SD card is mounted as /sdcard, and a lot of applications have that hard-coded as the storage location, since that's where it used to be. Having /sdcard be internal storage and /sdcard2 (or /sdcard/ext_sd) be external storage is relatively new. When apps are updated and get smarter then this problem will go away. Some apps when you install them for the first time will figure out /sdcard2 is the right place for external storage.

This is why a thousand posts (roughly!) exist on these forums that say you should do fresh installs of apps on a new ROM, don't install backups. Don't select any of the Google backup options. Don't select any of the Verizon backup options. Don't ever restore app data from a backup, and restore from Titanium CAREFULLY, better yet just save your APKs and manually reinstall them.

If you have apps that are steadfastly refusing to recognize /sdcard2 as storage maybe it's time to find different apps that are more compatible with your phone.
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
Is anyone experiencing 2-3 seconds lag when pressing the "Power" button in order to turn the screen on?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Nope not me. Maybe a half second
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
gonna try your rom here nils, haven't ran your stuff since the Inc. i think the firmware is causing me major issues, though, as my battery life is garbage now on every ICS rom, and i'm getting random reboots on bamf...here's hoping your rom runs better =) if not, this phone may be smashed by teh end of the night and it's back to the inc! lol
[HTC Rezound] punman:
No smashy! I've been seeing a lot of people reporting weird problems lately and it's confusing the hell out of me. It's like when the phone first came out and a bunch of people had "bacon mode" battery issues (120+ F temps under moderate load) and some people never saw it go over 90F no matter what.

Makes me wonder if there are actually system board differences, like slightly different parts or chips, between phones at different plants or from different manufacturing runs or something like that.

Big, terrible, bad bad bad electronics no-no when your devices behave differently on identical software/firmware, I can't imagine HTC thinking this was acceptable, maybe its why the phone wasn't pushed as much as others. Just guessing at this point.
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
this is what i did all day yesterday. ugh! i kind of assumed that the apps weren't up to date and i keep searching for better/newer. its a pita. it used to be the external almost exclusively. is HTC finally utilizing that internal 16gb(12 actually)? its confusing on this end. when you connect the phone via disk, they are almost identical. you never know what you're looking at exactly
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Sorry. Don't have a cable to test it.

Wifi tether not working

Running Nils ics 4.0.3 on a rezound.

Anyone have problems getting wifi tether to work?

I have tried all the settings and can't get it to connect .

The following 3 failure messages are in the log when trying to connec: ad-hoc mode, setting essid and setting channel.

I have also searched this post and the internet and not many seem to be having this problem. Some are but there are no discussions to be found which is strange.
[HTC Rezound] cam1pbell:
Go into settings and change the channel. That's what I did to make it work.
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
Change the profile to galaxy nexus and enable route fixing. It works like a champ for me.
[HTC Rezound] killerb777:
wierd. i tried it on another rom and it doesn't work either. wonder if its the cable, even though it works on my wifes tablet.
[HTC Rezound] okrk:
Thanks

But that is how i have it set still get the same errors. Cam you think of anything else i may be missing?

Dumb question, do you have your WiFi enabled?
[HTC Rezound] okrk:

I found the problem. In messing with the settings i must have set the setup method to WEXT. Changed it to auto and bingo! now it is working fine.

Thanks to all who attempted to help.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Wireless Tether

For those having problems with getting this working before you even try to turn it on you should change the settings to:

Profile - Samsung Galaxy Nexus (CDMA/LTE)

Check Routing Fix

Once it is working then try other stuff
[HTC Rezound] okrk:
Good point because if i set that initially it most likely would have worked. But i started changing to many things at once.

Thanks!

I updated the OP to make it a little clearer for new users.
[HTC Rezound] Dodger70:
I dont know if its just me but I cant seem to find the "unknown sources" option I checked under the security tab and I didnt see it
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Have you tried installing something without setting that from your sd card? It should show it then.
[HTC Rezound] Dodger70:
Yes I tried installing an apk and a window pops up that says install blocked so I select the settings option and it takes me to security and there is no "unknown sources" option.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Shows on mine before and after installing something with Root Explorer. May need to reflash and set it immediately either in security or via and install popup.
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
You need to install it before you go into any of the settings menus. If you don't you cant sideload.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:

Thanks Nils I reflashed it and it showed up
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
i was a launch day lucky one..mine never hit over 105, and i have red enough buttons..only thing is that over the months, dust has gotten under the screen. i also had light leakage from day one..meaning, the quality of my particular phone isn't that good IMO. hope the one x series screens are fastened to the bezel in a much better way...
[HTC Rezound] punman:
Yeah, no problems with mine either, ordered by phone to customer service on launch day, shipped direct from Verizon warehouse. Didn't order online or go to store specifically because I've had good luck getting a little "extra" deal when I actually call in.

Of course if I waited until now I could have gotten it for $49 ... oh well.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
rom seems nice, but of course it wouldn't be my phone if there weren't a problem, RIGHT?!!?!?

randomly, recent apps show up in the dropdown despite teh fact i have it off in leedroid tweaks...they still randomly come up, even after reboots. it's like, ill reboot, drop it down, nothing there...then a couple dropdowns later, they're there...then i put ti back and drop down andt ehyr'e gone again.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
For some reason Tweaks does that but it seems to stop after awhile. I have not seen it in a week or so.
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
Yea man. My battery runs hot very quickly (and very hot too!) when I'm doing nothing heavy on the phone. Besides, it runs hot while charging too.

Are there any apps that can monitor the temp?
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
damn. ok man thanks for the answer. I hope it goes away, it's just something random, and if that's the biggest problem I have with this rom, then thank god lol
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
I'm experiencing the same thing.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
hey man, if my phone stops rebooting itself and my battery life is ANY better, then idc lol
[HTC Rezound] punman:
I have an elixir2 widget set up for that but I'm sure if you don't use elixir there are tons of other options in the market.
[HTC Rezound] OLDsJUNKIE:
Exactly. Restoring apps from a backup is nothing but trouble and costs lots of people lots of time trying to track down a problem that is easily avoidable. If it's too difficult to install your apps fresh, stick with one ROM. Titanium backup should be banned from use by ROM flashers! ;)
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
there has always been that 10% quality control factor. if 10% passes, the rest go out
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
sigh. that's so ****ty haha

either way, my recent apps keep popping up. when i got home, my wifi thing was up there asking if i wanted to connect, and as i dropped down, recent apps appeared, and wifi thing asking to connect went away,..so i rolled it up, pulled down, recent apps stillt here. i was in the text app at the same time, and they kept showing up in that app

once i backed to home, recent apps went away. weird..
[HTC Rezound] douger1957:
That's why I renamed the SD card when I formatted it.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
bah, this rom does the same thing where everytime i unmount my SD card from the pc, the phone just will NOT remount it..i have to manually unmount/mount the sd card in the phone settings every damn time. all ics roms are doing this for me..rahh

yeah, ES file manager sees it, but the gallery app doesn't. this happens everytime i mount to my pc, and i can't get the gallery to show any of my pictures anymore. ughl
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
yeah. i know mine is h:/

but i don't know what is finding its info and which place it finds it
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
even after rebooting, it still couldn't find my pictures. just said 'insert an sd card' in the gallery, despite the fact it was in.

this time i manually unmounted and remounted and they showed up.

guess i can never ever plug my phone into a computer again without dealing with a damn hassle.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I am going to make some assumptions here so tell me where I am wrong.

1) You did the RUU

2) If you didn't do the RUU you did the patch

3) You let the kernel install in bootloader

4) You have not flashed an alternate kernel.

5) You have not removed any apps

6) You not under or overvolting

Just some thoughts because I don't have that problem at all.

On a side note, have you set the quicksettings to go to to settings automatically which I thinks helps with the recent apps pulldown problem.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
thanks for the response, nils.

i did the RUU, sadly.

i did let your kernel install in the bootloader after flashing.

i didn't remove apps and i'm not tweaking the speed/volting whatsoever

and i don't have it going to settings.

i'm actually going to see what it's like to go back to GB right now..some helpful folks posted the SD card fix, now i just have to find a gingerbread kernel because i don't think that's part of the nandroid file i had.

You were not by any chance trying the high res camera before you had the gallery problem were you?

Camera and gallery are tightly coupled and if they are not from the same ROM it can cause troubles.

SD Card mount

If I remember correctly, I used to have a similar issue on my Droid Incredible with GingerSense 3.5. Not anymore :D
[HTC Rezound] nsmal24:
I just wanted to take a moment to say thanks for this ROM Nils. It has become my new benchmark for stability, yet it is still based off of a leak. Sure, I've tried the new Sense 4 ROM (which is coming along nicely), but for someone who relies on his phone for a number of things, this ROM can't be beaten. When you deal with people reporting bugs all day long, I think that this needs to be mentioned to remind everyone just how good it is. Some notes for those who are considering running this:

1. Battery life is as good as it gets on the Rezound. I have no problem making it through a day of moderate-heavy usage (10-16 hrs) with battery to spare (NOT extended and non-4g area).

2. Camera shots are great. As my wife and I just had our first son, the camera is a high priority for me. I am using the HQ #2 patch with this ROM and it is working tremendously. The crappy camera is one of the primary reasons that I returned my nexus.

3. The recent apps sometimes show up in the notification bar. It just happens. This is a problem with the tweaks and not specific to Nils ROM.

4. I ran the RUU before updating to this, and I don't regret it for one second. The included radio seems to be the best I've used. Don't forget that reception dictates battery life in many scenarios. Another reason I returned my Nexus is that the reception was very poor which, in turn, pulled down the battery considerably.

Anyway, that all being said, thanks Nils.
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
Can you share this?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Thanks. Great feedback and good food for thought.

i didn't have the HQ cam installed, nils.

otherwise, it was a great rom, and i had it fully set up, but i decided to cut my losses and head back to gingerbread, where i didn't have any real issues. IMO, it's ICS. i've been buggy ever since flashing it, so i'm gonna chill on GB for a while until a solid ICS OTA comes along
[HTC Rezound] Mechadan:
To be fair, I had some trouble with performance in some of the apps I restored using Titanium Backup. Recently, I have gone to only restoring the app data from TB, but installing the apps fresh from the market. This saves the effort of having to login for every Twitter/Facebook/ESPN/whatever app when you flash a new ROM. Performance of the app does not seem affected by handling it this way. Maybe I'm just lucky, but I noticed Tapatalk performance was HORRIBLE when I restored both the app and data from TB, but restoring just the data and installing the app from the market seemed to work well.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Seems to be common that when someone restores apps AND data, especially when from a different ROM, always end up with some problem like you stated.

I am not against TB but recommend staying away from it just to be safe so I am not chasing problems I didn't create.

Minor Mystery Solved: "HTC Corporation has stopped" message.

This turns out to be related to the Arrowed HTC Keyboard. Found this by accident when testing something else.

[HTC Rezound] v941726:
TB was flawless until ICS or this rom. it has worked perfectly. i still say it is the file system and where it "hides" data. need an app to fix it i guess
[HTC Rezound] punman:
No.

The filesystem does not "hide" anything normally.

I can't put this any nicer, but your stuff is messed up, as proven over the course of weeks attempting to troubleshoot your issue.
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
"hide" was rhetorical. i used a freshly formatted brand new sdcard. its from years of data. cleaned it from old stuff first. wiped deleted sd-ext. flushed and filled the phone. again. and i mean EVERYTHING! boot, system, dalvik, factory reset, sd-ext, etc. re-installed RUU. copied backup of sd-ext and and entire root of sdcard. sd-ext overwrote the other files. seemed very logical. it was. it mostly worked after some tweaking......subsequent reboots created the re-created the sd-ext and apps couldn't find their data again. i have minimal apps right now and they are supposedly ICS ready.

one question that stands out! did google(ICS) or HTC change something with the file system?

i have noticed that the phone is using the built in memory. on the incredible it was wasted.

but me and my apps are confused. :) i have changed nothing.
[HTC Rezound] jscarano:
Totally agree:)
