Just switched over from NilsP's 4.0 rom because I need HDMI output now. But I have a few issues. The radio on this ROM sucks. It is constantly cutting in and out of 3g. Never had a problem with the 4.0 rom. Any suggestions? Different radios to try? Also, I didn't see any choices of keyboards in Aroma installer. I dont like the arrows at the bottom. I would like them on the side or not present at all. Any work around for that without getting a third party keyboard?

BTW, I am s-off.

Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
This is a global ROM and likes the global radio. If you are not on the latest global RUU install it then reinstall the ROM

Arrowless keyboard in post 3
[HTC Rezound] ezflip:
I did a full RUU before installing the 4.0 rom, but I dont know if it was the global or not. So, I will do that later today hopefully. And thanks for the keyboard, I looked and looked, but apparently read right over that haha. Looks like everything I need is in post 3. Thanks! And I will report back on the radio issues after I install the global RUU.
[HTC Rezound] DIncLover:
I just installed the global RUU and upgraded to the current 6.4 version from a way earlier version..... I notice my MIUI battery indicator is gone .... Is there some way I can get this back or is it unavailable in this version?

Thanks

Home screen rotate?

Is there any easy way to get the stock Sense home screen to rotate to landscape? I'm using a car dock, and it would help functionality - I've tried a couple of market apps, but they end up cutting the screen in half when it rotates - would appreciate any ideas -

Nils, love this version - really quick and smooth, and everything works, which is the most important thing at the end of the day - thanks so much for keeping this version supported -
[HTC Rezound] GordoGuapo:
Hi Nils and friends!

Love your ROMs sir! Still using your ROM on my WiFi only Incredible.

I'm trying to use a boot animation from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2129322

I'm not having any luck.

What I've done using Root Explorer:

I've changed the names of the default files to htc_bootanimation.zip.bak and Vigor_VZW_bootanimation.zip.bak

I've also tried removing them from the folder all together.

Then I downloaded the zip posted in previously mentioned thread. Changed the name to Vigor_VZW_bootanimation.zip and made sure the permissions match the default zip.

Reboot and nothing. Shows the default HTC splash screen then just opens to the lock screen. No animation.

Any thoughts fellow Rezounders?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
It is really dificult for me to diagnose someone elses work especially with boot animations since they are very sensitive. A couple of hints:

1) pull the txt file out of mine and the one you are trying and compare them

2) compare the image sizes.

3) after installing it clear cache and dalvik

4) make sure the zip is not compressed.

Good luck

Hey nil...do you continue developing your rom for new version :-? .. i like this rom so much ^ ^
[HTC Rezound] DIncLover:
Bump!
[HTC Rezound] torr310:
Nil, thank you for your great work!

I love your ROM! :)
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Don't think it has ever been in the global version
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Yup, still supporting it.

What do you want in a new update?
[HTC Rezound] dabomb697:
Hey Nils. I was thinking maybe of a non google now version of google search. I read somewhere that google now sucked battery life due to the constant syncing. So I deleted and it does feel like my battery is lasting longer. But now I don't have google search which I kinda miss. Would it be possible to gives us the non google now version for that ROM?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I will look into it but in the interim if you don't activate it or deactivate it it acts like the regular search and is not bad on the battery.
[HTC Rezound] nomercy9691:
i think the rom can be lighter and faster and batterry long life ...

maybe upgrade to 4.1.2 ... and optimized Sense ...delete some apps..or make theme for rom :-?
[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
What you describe is an entirely new ROM. I am unsure if anyone has Sense running in 4.1.2 yet...maybe, but 4.1.2 is still quite buggy which goes against what Nils does for us. He provides ROMs that work in all aspects for daily use where reliability is crucial.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Correct. This ROM is trimmed down as much as it can be safely trimmed and still keep it a stable Global Sense 3.6 ROM. Basically what has been removed is available to install during the install script.

It has also been tuned for just about the best battery life you can get.
[HTC Rezound] torr310:
1) I noticed my signal strength increased after flashing this ROM compared to MIUI.

The increase was from -90dBm to -110dBm.

Is this the case?

2) The Google Now shows new version available. How can we update?

Thank you!

Mobile data connection dropping

Anyone getting random drops in mobile data, for both 3 and 4G? People around me have solid connections. Weird.

Please let me know if there might be any solutions. STill love this ROM

Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] nomercy9691:
tks guys.. i know..i'm still happy with your rom now ^_^

btw.. if i want to reinstall this rom..i must install 6.3 and then 6.4 or only go straight to 6.4
[HTC Rezound] ryryrocco:
if you went from -90dBM up to -110 then that means your signal was worse

the lower number the better

in good spots I hit about -60-65

-70-85 is pretty good

-90-100 not so good

over -110 could be spotty
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Need to do both in order
[HTC Rezound] ezflip:
NilsP, I still cannot download the OTA. The message says "MD5 error - download file invalid!" Been getting this error since I installed this ROM last week.

Edit: Just tried the download like 10 times in a row. It finally accepted the file on the 10th try.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Its in post 1 until I can fix it

Its a problem with the host only direct downloading if you are logged in
[HTC Rezound] torr310:
Is that the case? But I saw more signal bars. hmm....
[HTC Rezound] gr8nole:
Sense based roms have always shown more bars than AOSP based roms.
[HTC Rezound] torr310:
Now I understand! Thank you!

Another question, I tried to install Google Calendar and Google Play services with this error message: "Incompatible with other application(s) using the same shared user ID."

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1219029

It seems to be a solution but I don't know how to do it. Is there an easier way to solve this problem? The Google Calendar does look better than Sense calendar. Thanks.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
This has been discussed many time in this thread and I don't have a solution yet. I need to find a google services that works but have not yet.
[HTC Rezound] torr310:
All right, thank you NilsP!

Since installing this rom my keyboard wont come up to post here or any other forum I have tried, its just this reply box though, the title box works, chat boxes work, every other text field Ive tried works except the reply box in forums.

[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Folks, not seeing anything in the latest OTA fro VZW of great value for this ROM.

If anyone sees something that is better in it let me know.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
For Global no. If you are looking into re-basing 3.14.605.12, it is needed for 911 dialing. I know I might be rebasing Viral Vigor soon to reflect the update. If you need a rom side patch just lmk. Got one made up already.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Thanks

I was thinking of updating my non global ROM
[HTC Rezound] Shinebox:
I actually like everything about this rom including sense but the 6 columns in the launcher is the only reason I don't use it.
[HTC Rezound] punman:
All of a sudden I'm getting double notifications for certain events. So far noticed it on Facebook and Wordfeud. By double notifications, I mean that I get notification of a comment (or a move) and then, after reacting to it, either clearing it or clicking on it and reading it, I get another one a minute or so later for the same thing. I don't think Messages (SMS or MMS) is doing this, as I got a few of those today and they weren't doubled. I don't think GMail does it.

Rebooted as soon as I noticed it, didn't fix it. Facebook updated today, but Wordfeud didn't, so I don't think it's an application issue. I've had exactly zero problems with this ROM for a couple months so I hope I don't have to completely wipe and start over.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Just wipe cache and dalvik and see what happens
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
you could also go into settings/apps/facebook and clear data

That seems to have fixed it for now.

[HTC Rezound] boyj600:
Just wondering, is there a different kernel to flash that can address the battery overheating?
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
99% fo the time the included kernel is far better then any other for Nil's Roms

Overheating battery is certainly not the norm., seems like you got something going on there, bad battery or a rough app running up your cpu
[HTC Rezound] boyj600:
If I understand this correctly, the Rezound has always had heat issues even out of the box, but newer updated kernels in the JB roms do not overheat nearly as much as ICS roms. I ran a couple newer roms and never had the heat issues using the same battery and same apps. So I think it is something with ICS roms both Sense & De-sensed with the kernels associated with them. Am I wrong on this?
[HTC Rezound] Primevyl:
Pointers!?

is there a way to edit a file in the Rezound to make all apps searching for ringtones/notifications to look in one folder? I have a redundant cache of ringtones (several thousand) and i would like to consolidate.

example: instead Alarm looking in Ringtones and Handcent looking in Notifications...They both look in folder x

also, is there a mitigation for sense's ram-mongering? what options do i have if 4/7 times now when i hit the home key sense has gone to the black htc screen and needs to reload.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Create an empty text file named ".nomedia" and place it in each folder that you wish your apps to not look at.

Hmm..the solution I was looking for would be to"trick"the apps into believing that the notification or ringtone folder was the consolidated folder I alluded earlier.

I haven't had heat issues per se. none at all after updating to the newest firmware and radios with the global RUU. What firmware are you on? On gingerbread firmware or some of the leaked versions people were complaining about hot phones and wise battery life. I've run a few sense and aosp ROM's and done being on the new firmware have stayed pretty cool....with the exception of a kernel that was overclocked and not playing nice which I removed.

[HTC Rezound] ram911:
I really like the 4.0 ROM, but call quality for me is horrible. So I can only look over the fence from the stable side of your 3.6.
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
That seems odd, their shouldn't be any difference in call quality. Im not sure what firmware/radio you have but if you have what Nil's recommends in post 3 of the 4.0 topic everything should be golden.

I say try it, you wont go back, I haven't
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I agree. The 4.0 is my daily and it is my work phone.
[HTC Rezound] ram911:
That's very interesting, I am not one to deviate from the developers recommendation for install like adding kernels, radio's, and CPU accelerators I like stability.

My girl can't stand when I am on the 4.0 ROM as we have echo's, static and sometimes the "I called you earlier and it went straight to voice mail."

Q: The radio and firmware are installed with the Rom? Is this correct.

I am unlocked, S off and I installed the global RUU prior to flashing the 3.6 ROM back in 2012. This ROM runs perfect in my opinion.

My install process:

a. Nandroid backup

b. Uncheck backup my settings (Privacy)

c. Run CleanWipe 1.0_10x

d. Flash Rom and allow to boot

f. Reboot and skip setup process going straight to home screen

I do not need my arm twisted to try it again, and now that I know the radio's and firmware are the same I won't be so quick to blame her or the ROM for the call quality, but I do want the 4.0 to be my daily ROM....

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
go into setting/about, your phone should look like this except Im on 4.0 and you are on 3.6

If not follow Nil's post #3 to update, it will be easy since you are S-Off also when you flash 4.0 make sure you choose S-Off and No Patch

Latest RUU Leak and Installation Instructions

NOTE: This is only needed if you want the latest ICS Firmware (Good Idea)

Quote:

Download the 4.03.605.2 Global RUU: >> Here. MD5 = bcdd450501e390ce323a46b396cd0a49

Rename the RUU to "PH98IMG.zip". Just remove everything in the name before the PH

Copy the renamed ipdate to the root of your external SD Card.

Re-lock the bootloader. Skip this if S-OFF

Open a DOS prompt and change directory to the folder where you have fastboot.exe

Reboot to bootloader

Type "fastboot oem lock" (No Quotes) while you are in bootloader (fastboot usb).

Reboot to bootloader again via recovery menu.

The bootloader should find the PH98IMG.zip file and scan it.

Scanning will take awhile so be patient

When it prompts you say yes

The update will make the first pass.

This will take awhile so just watch the progress bar on the right

The phone will reboot and sit on the white HTC screen. This could be awhile so be patient and don't get nervous.

When it is done it will reboot back to bootloader to run the second pass of the install. Again, this will take some time so just watch the progress bar and OK's on the list.

When it is done it will say "press power to reboot" so do it.

Now it will boot into the leaked Update.

Once booted skip everything in setup

If you plan to run it stock then just get it set up to your liking

Install Amon Ra recovery version 3.15 (My Preference)

If hboot will show tampered at the top but that is normal

Flash my ROM using the instructions in post 1

One more thing that I seem to have missed, when I ran stock ICS builds. When making a call the phone would vibrate upon connection doesn't do that anymore, is it a setting I'm missing?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Sorry, not likely to put the recent apps back in the pulldown. Two reasons, it causes lag and I lost the stock SystemUI when my laptop crashed and it would be too much effort to put it back.

Not sure about the connect vibrate. If it is a setting it is the first thing I would turn off.

I'd like to use the stock SIP calling feature to save voice minutes when I'm on my WiFi. After setting up my account everything works except the keytones. When I need to press 1 for yes press 2 for no etc. the tones wont stop, it continues to sound throughout the call and even after I hang up. The tones don't stop until I open the dialer again dial another number let the call connect then the tones will stop and I can hang up. I really need to use the voip for dialing 800 numbers and such, because I know I will be on hold for long periods and don't want to waste mobile minutes.

I had the same problem with AOSP roms. What could be missing that this does not work with custom roms? I really would prefer not using another app but I will if this can't be fixed. Let me know if this is not worth the effort at this point in the phone and roms life and I will understand, it's just I'm unemployed currently and I gotta watch every dime.

After doing a wipe, re-installing the ROM and updating Google Play, the Google Play Services installed automatically. No more problems with YouTube, Maps, Carbon, etc.
