I wish I had a good suggestion. I also wish I could get my hands on the phone and diagnose it.

At this point I would just format the sd card and make sure there is no linux partition on it and then do a full wipe and install again.

Have you recently tried any of the other ICS ROM's or even tried just running the RUU without flashing a ROM? Atleast that way we would know if it is ICS or my ROM doing something.

Like I said, if I had my hands on it I would first lock, flash the RUU, and unlock and run it for a day or so without rooting it. See how it does.

Next I would flash Amon Ra, root it and debloat. See how it does.

Then install a ROM and only install basic applications from the market.

Then just keep building from there slowly until it breaks.
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
thats how i started. knowing it was iffy with the rezound.

i downloaded a song. my roboplayer had a tough time finding it. i really think it ma be he card. i really don't think it is your rom. trying to pick brains. :) i don't think its the phone either. what do you mean by linux partition? thats what i was saying. i don't get the unix/linux file system really

---------- Post added at 09:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:19 AM ----------

ok. it has a tough time finding a song i just downloaded. it goes through and eventually finds it. have the internal, sim card, sdcard that it seems to search for
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Linux partitions are the ones like ext4

If you format the card in your pc it should take care of it by formatting the entire card to fat32
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
i think maybe that is best to try. are you saying use a bullet? because from the phone i see 3 partitions
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Are you seeing 3 partitions on the SD Card or seeing 3 mount points?

I would just take the card out, back it up and format it using a PC adapter. When you put it back in the phone it will make some folders on it that the phone needs like DCIM then you can copy your ROM installs, music, pictures etc. back to the card
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
yes. there are 3 partitions. by bullet(old school again) i mean adapter. i will try that and let you know
[HTC Rezound] rwideman:
Did as you said and it is working. Rooting is much different than on the Incredible, sheesh.
[HTC Rezound] k2trill:
There's never an "easy way out...." :rolleyes:
[HTC Rezound] Damasterjj:
nice boot animation and rom, is there anyway to disbale/darken the white HTC boot screen kinda too bright.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Great

Yeah life is different when you don't have s-off

Question, updated to latest a couple of days ago and noticed that the gmail app notification went back to the old stupid looking icon. What edits do I need to do to get the one from 3.0, you know the one that looks pretty close to the gmail icon?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
It looks like they may be pulling it from the wrong folder in the latest release.

If it is this one use 7zip to drop it into the drawable-hdpi and drawable-xhdpi folders of gmail.apk and push it back to the /system/app/ folder with adb
[HTC Rezound] SynisterWolf:
if it was an update, wouldnt it be in data/app ?
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
Awesome sauce. Thanks nils
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
True if he updated it
[HTC Rezound] SynisterWolf:
I took the updated one from market, added the png.

Just push this into system/app

match the permissions rw - r - r

reboot the phone.

(remember to uninstall the update from market first)
[HTC Rezound] punman:
If you have another, fresh SD card, you can just try it with that one. If I were you, I would do these steps:

0. Turn your phone off, take out the battery, take out the SD card.

1. Format or find new SD card, download the RUU, put it on this new card as PH98IMG.zip -- just do all this on your computer, we're taking the phone out of the equation at this point. Make sure it's formatted FAT32 and doesn't have any extra stuff on it, other than the .zip you're going to put on it.

2. Re-lock your phone: battery in, hold vol dn + power, select fastboot, plug into computer as USB, run fastboot oem lock. Once its done, battery out.

3. New SD (or formatted SD) back into the phone, battery in, vol dn + pwr, fastboot, apply the update. NOTE: this will take 2-3 reboots OR MORE, when all 15 or so partitions say "OK" and it says it's done, then you're done, not before. IT WILL REBOOT A LOT. Maybe you missed this the first time.

4. Run on the leaked, "stock" RUU, unrooted and locked, for a couple days, and see if you still have problems. If not ...

5. Do the rest of the stuff Nils said: unlock it again, install Amon Ra, install Nils ROM, etc ...

At some point, doing #5 as you have before, IF YOU RUN INTO PROBLEMS STOP ... Immediately think back to the last thing you did to the phone that's part of your custom setup. At least you'll start to narrow down the culprit to something you're doing.

Good luck.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Sorry missed your question when I was posting another.

The white image is the splash image and can't be changed until we get s-off. Believe me I would have changed that a long time ago.
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
yeah. but hope :)
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
And that looks like it could be a reality real soon now.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Yup and I hope they come up with an easy process since I have not seen much on the process they have had success with. Plus I missed the opportunity to participate in the tests
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
this sounds like the right thing to do. but as you probably know, this is almost a whole day w/o my phone. it is my only phone. i was trying to think of a half a day solution
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
It may take a day or 2 but it is only short periods of time that the phone will be unusable during the flashes. You are correct though that there will be extended periods of time you won't have all your add on apps since you will be slowly introducing them back.

Since you are having functionality problems now that may be a small price to pay and in the end you will know what is breaking it for you.
[HTC Rezound] punman:
Yeah, what Nils said... Doesn't work now, it's worth it to fix it now. This is my only phone too, and I have had times with it down for a bit for troubleshooting ... Better to deal with it and have a working phone after you figure it out.

Edit: I just want to add this, and it's more of a general statement than specific to this case, but if you can't afford the potential time loss from a serious phone problem, it's maybe a good idea to stick to a stock ROM. We all love to play around with our phones, and yeah, 99% of the time nothing seriously breaks from a new flash, but man that 1% really sucks. I had one of Nils' ROMs on my dinc causing problems with my phone for weeks until I finally figured out it was caused by setting up an EAP wifi network which required a certificate password which for some reason interfered with SD card mounting ... but only after a reboot. Sometimes changes or installs will have unexpected consequences, and it's up to us in some cases to troubleshoot them because no one's got the same set of apps or same preferences or settings.

-steps off soapbox-

Anyway, I encourage you again to wipe and fix it, not only will you learn something, you may help someone else.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Thanks to Raster for the donation.

Much appreciated.
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
Nils, getting the time setting notification once or twice a day. Any way to fix that? It's completely minor, but I'm just wondering.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Typically if you accept it once it stops prompting. I ignored it a couple of times but when I accepted it it went away. Haven't seen it in about a month now.
[HTC Rezound] punman:
Funny, I accepted it on a prior version and it isn't asking again after wiping/flashing a couple times. You'd think something like that wouldn't persist ...
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Actually so did I. I made some settings changes in 3.3 which may be why.
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
yes. thats why i'm tired of doing it. should have gone with my gut the first time. i always want to get it right the first time. now its holiday and will be traveling. damn! i really like this rom. want to keep it. i don't think it's your rom. so don't take offense.

yes. i will follow up when i do it and share it here. hopefully no one else will run into this
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
yes. thank you. i agree. that 1 % can be killer. don't use an EAP wifi network, but there definitely seems to be a mounting issue

---------- Post added at 01:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:55 PM ----------

what time zone are you in Nils? i'm -5 and there is no option to even pick it. so i wonder if it is a bug in your rom
[HTC Rezound] corz123:
Hey guys. I read in another thread that some are experiencing reduced battery life. Does anyone know how prevalent that is?
[HTC Rezound] punman:
I'm experiencing better battery life with Nils' v3.3 ... I believe he tweaked some cache settings for less CPU drain under idle/low load situations.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
No bug. You have to scroll up and down it goes all the way to -11 and +13
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
No offense at all. I would rather you be happy on another ROM then unhappy on mine.

What punman said below.

Should definitely be better since there are tweaks for battery consumption in v3.3.

There is however a, however it may not be as effective if you are on the old firmware but should still be decent.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I see over 700 downloads from China so I would love to hear from some of them.

Hopefully to find out what they like and what they need.

Was that with the stock app?

there are no -5 settings or new yok or any thing close. can someone give me a good link to the latest RUU? maybe i got a bad one. going away and need to be prepared

Does the High res camera V2 work with this?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Does it happen every time?

And I don't know about the camera.
[HTC Rezound] MARKREIF:
Hey Nils - as a biz oriented developer have you considered and/or given any thought at all to the lack of SMS synchronization in stock exchange or in HTC's exchange option? As it stands SMS synchronization is part of 2010 Activesync both on WinMo 6.1 and higher and is also part of Touchdowns Android Exchange app.... If anything I would think HTC's process might be adaptable seeing that Touchdown has accomplished this - any thoughts?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I will do some digging. Sounds interesting.

NEED HELP

Hi Guys,

Rooted my phone all was good, did a nandriod backup right out of the gate.

dl'd this rom and the patch. factory reset, clear cache, cleare d cache, flash rom, then phone boots to h boot and asks me if I want to apply patch, power button is yes, hit power button, patch successful, press power button to reboot, phone reboots, skip all setup. go into gmail, sign in, email works ok.

Then all of a sudden the phone reboots on its own, load rom, pop up says NO SIM CARD, A sim card is needed to use this phone, then phone reboots, and repeat over and over, only way to stop it is to pull battery.

So I pulled battery, pulled sd card plugged into my comp, deleted the rom and patch zip, put sd back into phone booted into hboot, then recovery, factory reset, cleared cache, cleared d cache, armon, restore nand, armon says it restored successfully, reboots to white HTC screen then go blank.

OK I factory reset again clear all again, flashed this rom again, same thing NO SIM CARD, then reboot , reboot reboot until I pull battery.

I need help, I cant get this rom to work and I can do a nandroid even tho armon says restored.

Im out of ideas

Please help

Thanks

Hitch
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
That was the kernel in bootloader. You still need to do the patch in recovery.
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
I cant do it manually, after rom flashes, reboots to hboot and says do you want to do the update, press volume up for yes and press volume down for no. I can get back into recovery from hboot after flashing the rom. I have to remove the sd card from the phone, plug it into my comp and remove the rom, the patch and the other file file pbm something like that. Then i can put the sd card back into the phone hold volume down and power to get into hboot then it will let me scroll down to recovery and enter recovery for flashing. Im dl'ing your GB rom now, hopefully that will being the phone back.

[HTC Rezound] k2trill:
U should use the RUU anyway. The radios r better, battery life is better, and future support will inevitably come from there anyway.

[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
Im sure this has to be a dumb question, Sorry,

Where do i get the RUU?
[HTC Rezound] pitbullmommy45245:
I'm on the newest version of this rom (3.3 i think) the newest firmware. I don't use cpu. i don't use profiles. facebook syncs every 4hrs. i don't play any games. I surf the web from time to time and i text alot. i'm not tethering and its at auto brightness.
[HTC Rezound] punman:
Install something like SystemPanel and set it to monitor (might be pay version only, well worth it.) It will show you what apps are keeping the phone active.

I flashed Nil's GB 1.6 rom for now, working all week, going to flash the ICS again this weekend.

I need to find out more about amon ra when doing a nandroid back up you have options you pick as to what you want to backup,cwm didnt give you options, it just did a nandroid.

My first backup, rooted/stock rom I checked everything. When I tried to restore yesterday when i was haveing issues, amon said it restored but never actually did, just got black screen.

Hitch
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
AR is pretty straight forward. I just take the defaults and select the 2 secure options.

When you are ready to get on ICS let us know and we can walk you through the lock, RUU, unlock and the ROM. Pretty straight forward if you let the RUU finish and reboot atleast twice with a long wait between the 2 passes which is where most people get in trouble with a bad RUU flash.

Believe me, it is worth the effort
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
Thanks Nil's

I will take you up on that, maybe Friday sometime if you are available. I will be working out of town until then. I will hit you up when I get back

Over 1K downloads from China but they are not talking to me :D
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
getting about 10k/s with that. it will probably fail
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Yeah, it took forever when I first downloaded it the day the leak went up but it did work.

I hate to recommend the other links when I know this copy worked fine
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
It's just one guy; he can't figure out how to save downloads to hard drive and keeps messing up the flash.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Oh man and I thought they just liked it there HaHa
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I added this to the third post since people are always asking about "Where is the latest RUU" and "How to install it"

Any suggestions to make it clearer or correct would be helpful.

========================================================

Latest RUU and Installation Instructions

Download the 3.11.605.22 Leaked RUU: Here. MD5 = 58b0f42defc689650ddd5128f195dc7d

Rename the RUU to "PH98IMG.zip"

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

Re-lock the bootloader.

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.You may press power to reboot 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 RUU.

Once booted skip everything in setup

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

If you plan to install my ROM then follow the instructions on http://htcdev.com/ to unlock the bootloader

Just the last part if you already have the key

Install Amon Ra recovery version 3.15 (My Preference)

hboot will show tampered at the top but that is normal

Flash my ROM using the instructions in post 1
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
I have just unlocked and rooted my Rezound. I was about to install your ROM when I saw this message. What should I do now?
[HTC Rezound] punman:
Bringing this issue back up ... I just installed the Touch version of CWM and I was unable to complete a backup ... it just hung after a while and I had to pull battery.

I know I'm not the only one who's had this problem.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Yeah, I tried it again the other day with the same problem.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I really recommend you do the RUU but I have provided a patch to work with the old firmware in post 1 if you don't want to RUU.

I just find the performance is better after the new firmware.
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
So if I understand correctly, I have to re-lock the bootloader, then install your latest RUU, and only then wipe everything and install v3.3?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Yup, basically follow the instructions I posted
[HTC Rezound] k2trill:
CWM backup (hangs)

On your SD card (internal and external to be safe), create a blank text file in the clockworkmod folder named .hideandroidprogress ROM Manager SHOULD do this for you in it's settings when you select "Quick Backup an Restore," but maybe it's not for some reason so you can create the file yourself. that should solve your woes.
[HTC Rezound] punman:
And ... I just did it again, but selected "use external SD card" from ROM manager settings, and it worked. I did not try to restore from the backup it created, but at least it successfully created one.
[HTC Rezound] k2trill:
The backups will RESTORE perfectly as well... example: I backed up my ROM and installed the Sense 4 ROM Newts OnE XxX beta (Sense 4 ICS 4.0.3) so I could log into Dropbox and take advantage of the free 25GB of space for 2 years. for more info, Read here>> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1546893

Then, of course I wiped everything and restored my backup of Nil's extraordinary ROM. Everything went quickly and as smooth as butter with backing it up and restoring using CWM. It's much faster, cleaner, and manageable than Amon or wutever to/for me since it is integrated with ROM Manager. gotta love the automatic backups! :D
[HTC Rezound] k2trill:
lemme know if that works for you. it should no problem.
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
Hide n Reorder doesn't work. After I tap "Apply changes" nothing happens in the Notification Bar; there are still default icons in a messy order. Does anyone know why applying changes isn't working?

Also, I can't change the lock screen shortcuts; when I type the menu button and choose "Personalize" followed by choose "Display" the "Lock screen shortcuts" entry has a check mark next to it instead of letting me tap on that and choose custom apps. Weird.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Don't know why the hide and reorder isn't working. Try doing the changes and then apply. To force it to reload change a sense option like pagination.

As far as the lockscreen shortcuts go "working as designed". The shortcuts on the lockscreen are controlled by the shortcuts you have on the launcher.
[HTC Rezound] k2trill:
make sure you've granted the LeeDroid Tweaks (app) superuser permission and the lock screen shortcuts are going to obe whatever you have in your quick launch bottom panel when the phone is unlocked and on any of your home screens. It is different in ICS than it was in GB with Sense.

edit: ninja'd by the man himself! lol
[HTC Rezound] Damasterjj:
I'm not sure if this has been posted before but wifi turns on randomly sometimes on ver 3.3.
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
Ok, so how do I change the shortcuts on the launcher then?
[HTC Rezound] punman:
Yes. A lot of times.

Drag one off and drag another one on. Just like changing anything else in Rosie.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
drag the ones you don't want to the trash can (upper right) and drag the ones you do want to the launcher.

HINT: Don't delete the phone
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Turn auto and notify off in WiFi settings and dock mode and it happens a lot less frequently.
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
Thanks, guys. I got the shortcuts thing figured out. However, the quicksettings menu is still messed up. Damn...
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Reboot....
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
I've done it numerous times
[HTC Rezound] Damasterjj:
I didn't know that there is another auto wifi on dock mode. I just turn it off.

---------- Post added at 03:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:54 PM ----------

click/open superuser app and delete "leedroid tweeks" now when you try to make changes on quick settings it should ask you again to grant superuser access
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
It didn't work. Thanks, though.

However, what did work was unchecking the options that I want to see in the Quick Settings and checking off those that I DON'T want to see. That's just weird :=D
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
That is the way it works. It is the hide option so check to hide.
[HTC Rezound] k2trill:
Nils, u get ur CWM Recovery functioning "as advertised?"
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
why is it a different version though?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Nope. If I remember correctly I need to change a file location or something other than use external in RM but I have not had a chance to try it again after remembering that.

Do you know if there is actually a new release of it?

It should be 3.11.605.22 Did I post the wrong link?
