[HTC Rezound] Troider:
I recently switched from a Droid X (running CM9) to the Rezound, and I am loving it so far. I have read all the stickies on unlocking, rooting, and installing ROMs, and it is very different on this device. I understand the general idea, but I have a few questions...

For one, I am accustomed to being able to SBF back to factory if anything went wrong with my DX. I realize that there is no SBF process for a "bricked" Rezound, and that there are ways to fix your device if something goes wrong. I am wondering if there is a way to actually brick a Rezound beyond repair by just flashing ROMs and kernels. And if this does happen, has anyone had trouble getting a new device from Verizon after using HTCdev to unlock their device? I realize that it may void parts of the warranty, but I was just wondering if anyone has actually been denied a replacement device because of this.

My last question is, does Chrome work on ICS ROMs on the Rezound? I've looked through a lot of threads for the different ROMs in the development section, but I have not even seen it mentioned. On my Tab 10.1 (also CM9) and some other devices I have played with, you could just change the build number in the build.prop to fix Chrome if it didn't work with a ROM. Does this work for the Rezound?
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
Bricking is pretty tough on this phone. I haven't heard of full on bricking yet.

Also haven't heard of a warranty being voided just for flashing ROM's, at least for HTC.

There is a Chrome APK in the Themes forum. Sideload it as the very first thing you do once you flash an ICS rom. After that you are golden.

Good Luck.
[HTC Rezound] Kalger:
Anyone know when ICS is out for Motorola Razr?
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
What? You aren't going to find to many people in this forum that actually care about an ICS release for the Razr.

I am a almost 3 year Motorola user using that root/flashing/sbf process. I haven't went back to unrooting yet on my Rezound, but I can tell you it's a little more difficult to get rooted than the original Motorola Droid and the Motorola Droid X2 (which is what i upgraded from).

First you have unlock the bootloader. I did it the slow way step-by-step through HTCDev.com becuase the noob method wasn't working for me. After you get the files you need from the SDK Android app it's pretty much easy from there to unlock the bastard.

Flashing new roms is pretty similiar, but there's a hitch. Usually when you flash a ROM you have to flash a kernal that is compabitable with the ROM. Which means you have to do it in the bootloader instead of in Recovery. The only time you don't have to do this is when the ROM has a built in kernal (boot.img) and it almost flashes it for you automatically.

I'm very happy with my upgrade from the X2, but then again the original X had a lot more variety as far as development. The X2 wasn't very popular even though for a short while it was the best specced pure 3G device on Verizon when 4G LTE came out.

I've tried a couple ICS ROMs and for the most part they're pretty damn stable with a few bugs in them. Personally I like ROMs very polished with literally almost no bugs so I'm sticking with GB ROMs until something pretty polished comes out. I will be totally happy with my Rezound if we get a full or pretty close to a full AOSP ROM released under Ice Cream Sandwich.

If you have any other questions private message me. I've owned the Rezound for about a week now and have been happy with it.

Hello!

Had GingerGX v11 or so running for month now. But suddenly Wifi does not work anymore. Upgraded to v22 but still have the same problem. Did not yet do a full wipe since I then lose my apps/data.

Problem with wifi is that it start connecting, then stops. If I press scan it does not find any network available. Anybody any suggestions on how to proceed? Maybe the wifi of the XPeria Sony Ericson X8 is broken.

Thanks.:)

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
I have created a setup where I have my prime hooked up to a 20 inch monitor with a bluetooth mouse and keyboard. I figured only time i would want the "dock" would be when I am at my desk. So why not set it up with a bigger monitor.

aannyywaayyy.. when i hook it up via HDMI the entire notification bar is cut off. i think by design, so its not in the way for video. but while i am using it this way. i really need to the status bar. to reaccess apps and settings.

is there any way to turn that crop off?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mb_3000:
Hello there. I've been browsing the development forum for a few days now trying to decide what rom to use in my new skyrocket. they all sound pretty good and I just want to mention the key features I'm looking for. my last phone was a motorola milestone which was running cyanogenmod 7 and I'm trying to get back all the features I had there, so this is what i need the rom to do:

A)disable 3G connection while the phone is idle and/or the screen is off and use 2G exclusively until I unlock the screen again.

B)manage the CPU speed and governor from the rom settings. I know it can be done with setCPU but I can't really buy the app.

C) fast and reliable GPS lock.

D) the best battery life possible.

I think those are pretty basic features and I'm sure most roms already do all of those things, so I'm just asking here to get confirmation from you people.

Thanks! :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] icenight89:
a) no skyrocket rom can do this, so download and configure juice defender for this feature

b) setcpu is free to xda members, search for it and download using qr code (see point c however)

c) GPS on skyrocket is good, but u can use the agps fix and it will make it even better

d) Use any rom of ur choosing but I recommend using faux kernel 010m and undervolting with fauxclock app. This app can also control governor and min/max
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mb_3000:
Thanks! I didn't know that about setcpu. I'll try those tips and report back in case someone else is looking for something similar
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mb_3000:
One more thing I'm not sure about though, can juice defender actually do that? I mean, toggle between 2g and 3g on the skyrocket? I ask because after googling it most people say 3g can't be disabled on the skyrocket unless you turn off the data completely.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] icenight89:
wrong, custom roms allow this. juice defender will let u disable radios completely on screen off if u set it up that way, or do 2g screen off, and 3g/4g screen on
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] edsphinx:
Any update

Hello mb_3000,

I also looking for a ROM for my skyrocket, we are on same ship i suppose, if you have any feedback about your points, please share it, i really interested to know what results you may have with the recomendations.

hey forum, i have som questions.. has anyone tried modern combat 3:fallen nation on the samsung infuse? it is 0.49 cents in the market right now and i am considering to buying it, but i want to know first if it runs smoothly and without lag on this phone before buying it.. and also im having a problem with shadowgun when i want to buy it. In the market it says that i already purchased it but i havent, so i cant download it or buy it :( also if i want to buy it entering in the market page from the pc, it says the same thing.. has anyone experienced this?

[Thinkpad Tablet General] baz8080:
Hi all,

Did something stupid a while ago and deleted /system/app/DownloadProvider.apk. After that someone was good enough to give me a version from a US rom but this is causing the latest updates to fail.

I've tried a fair few things (still rooted btw but don't mind losing it tbh):

1) Overwriting rom completely with a stock US one: I get e:signature failed

2) Tried US and WE versions of the apk and odex to no avail

3) Kept the apk / odex but tried to remove the check in the update script: got a signature failed there too.

Does anyone have a dump of /system from a ThinkPadTablet_A310_02_0037_0075_UK rom? I would really appreciate DownloadProvider.apk and DownloadProvider.odex

Not sure if there's another way to do it but I'm all ears.

Thanks!

I've really thought about buying this, but I haven't really found a problem with the stock launcher that would make me want to pay that. I've tried ADWEx, Go, and LauncherPro Plus but I always come back to TouchWiz.

TSF is definitely the fastest and smoothest launcher I've ever used. It does take getting used to...I'm still not entirely lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
I always end up back on ADWex just because I've been using it for so long with great results and am so familiar with it. Most launchers seem to work ok with appropriate transitions etc selected.

I did get TSF launcher and am pretty happy with it. It seems incredibly smooth in the app drawer, no matter the transition. If they implement regular swiping through homescreens it may become my default. It's a bit silly with lasso select popping up every time I try to switch screens.

I love the stock Touch WIZ (coming from atrix 4g motoblur)... and don't want to adulterate my phone. I'm just waiting patiently for Ice Cream Sandwich. But if anything, Go Launcher would be the one I use. I played around with ADW & LauncherPRO but Go launcher was the smoothest and just fit my customization needs... well at least thats what i used on my stock atrix 4g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bradl79:
i have tried most of the MiLauncher, Launcher Pro, and TSF Launcher and i keep going back to Go Launcher, its free and the best, it is just a tad laggy, but i overclocked to 1782mhz and it works great, i can put up with a touch of lag for the best launcher, i do have a ton of widgets and apps installed so it is going to slow alittle, before i done a live wall paper it works great. i still cannot find one i would change to yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] canecbr600:
For some reason launcher lag has to do with cache settings in the launcher itself. I've always used launcher pro, and love it. When I put it on the note, it lagged like crazy, well I messed with settings for a long time, and found that if I changed cache type from normal to light, its perfectlly smooth! Also male sure keep in memory is checked. I have never had to make these changes on any other phone, and I've had ALOT of phones.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Tim M.:
I installed Sslauncher a few days ago. I've tried Go, TFS, and TouchWiz.

Sslauncher is by FAR my favorite because it's the most customizable. You can create your own custom sized icons from scratch. I made my own simple text theme (see pic).

Yes I could fit 25 little squares on my screen but it just looks cluttered, so I made something simple and to the point.

I'm working on theme to replace the text just pictures, no visible words, that anyone could pick up and use. I'll post a pic when I'm done.

Can anyone tell me other than launcherpro plus, I any good launchers I can resize widgets
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] baudilus:
I use ADWEx on my LG Thrill, and TSF Launcher on my Note.

TSF is by far, the smoothest launcher I've ever tried - I don't have a ton of widgets though - as a matter of fact, I still have two empty pages yet to be filled.

It didn't take me long to get over not being able to swipe to the next page, and I am not a fan of having a dock at the bottom of the screen. I put phone, web, email, and messaging in the side bar for quick access when needed.

They have an icon creator tool (that I have yet to play with).

As far as customization, you are limited to what the launcher allows you to do, so I think you need to pick one that allows you to do most or all of what you need to do.

I really love TSF launcher, even with the learning curve. Others don't like it at all.

That's the power of android - if you don't like something, change it. If you want the same experience as every other user, get an iPhone.

*Side note - I have a feeling that Apple will try to do something like widgets and act like they invented it, much in the way that they "invented" Siri (when Android devices have had similar functions for a year or more).

If they don't up the size of their screens soon, they won't enjoy the market share they've had for much longer.

My wife has an iPhone 4, and it is all but unusable to me now - and even she has a hankering for a bigger screen.

food for thought.
