[HTC Rezound] :
Unfortunately there are those that feel that its better to give you crap & be rude than just help you. I have been through this so many times its not funny. Before I had reached the 10 post limit to be able to post into the forums I had to PM to get help. I've been told things such as, I would have to donate & continue to pay per response & not to reply back until I have a paypal confirmation # & another time I was given a lecture about how I needed to search for the answer to my issues, because it had already been discussed and it was like 3/4 of a page long too. When I finally, after searching for hours, found the answer it was a tool I needed to use & it was created by the same person that lectured me about not searching. So why it makes sense to some people that its easier to lecture & do anything but help you, rather than just say click here with a link, is beyond me. That is what I've been doing ever since I was able to start posting in the forums. I give anyone & everyone the help no one would give me when I needed it. So with that said, if I can be of any help please don't hesitate to ask & if I can't help you, I will find someone that can. :)

Just to prove my point though, watch how many negative posts will fly around because I wrote this. I'm sure some really mature individual will take the time to report this as an inappropriate off topic post as well. I've already gotten reprimanded as it is, because I didn't stay exactly on topic by using a post to thank someone that had answered a question & was helpful, rather than just using the "thanks" button. The fact that it is rude as hell not to thank someone for their help, I was already out of "Thanks" for the day.

That's why my posts are starting to be fewer & fewer, because I'm tired of getting yelled at or insulted for helping people. :(
[HTC Rezound] hopesrequiem:
Your help is appreciated but your posts are always huge haha :p don't use so much space but thanks for the help you send around
[HTC Rezound] :
My post are so long, because they are detailed. Details are everything. Just because I take the time to explain something to avoid misunderstandings, instead of vague one liners doesn't make me a bad user.
[HTC Rezound] HarleyChick:
You're fine. And thank you for your post above (I didn't want to quote it, for fear that I would be accused of taking up too much space!). I agree with you 100%.
[HTC Rezound] SirSigma:
I couldn't agree with Magestic12 more.

On another note, seeing the screenshot of hopesrequiem's battery makes me a little jealous. I don't know what he could possibly be doing differently to get such amazing battery life unless he has an extended battery. My battery life isn't terrible or anything, but it's not that incredible like his. Any secrets?
[HTC Rezound] chefthomas99:
Xda is about helping others, not belittling ones who are starting out and just need a guiding hand. It takes just as many words to answer the questions as to saying go search the thread blah blah blah.
[HTC Rezound] hopesrequiem:
I am extended. But that is the best battery I've ever gotten on extended. Absolutely insane. It went like three solid days of usr before dying. I was stunned
[HTC Rezound] :
I was starting to think you had a plutonium cell or a direct wire to the national power grid! :D
[HTC Rezound] SirSigma:
Ah, I see then. I was thinking more in the ballpark of custom script or some optimization app. But thanks for answering anyway. Perhaps I should upgrade my battery in the future when I get tired of my protective case.
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
Airplane mode :P

But seriously, things like email syncing, Facebook syncing etc kill battery life. You can always switch to 3G when you don't need 4G to save battery life.

I myself stopped using Facebook, so literally the only thing that syncs is my contacts. Helped battery life tremendously. Also turn off auto brightness and keep your brightness very low.
[HTC Rezound] f3liC:
I will probably go back to lurking soon as thos is already too much drama but before that, I am also on the newer ics leak with radio and everything. I'm still not getting the amazing battery life that you guys are getting. Maybe I just have a dud.
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
So many things that play into this though. You can have an app going rogue. To much to often syncing. Brightness turned high. Etc.
[HTC Rezound] SirSigma:
Airplane mode, of course! That must work wonders.

Yeah, I heard the Facebook app on just about any ROM can really chew through battery life like bubblegum (I heard the Facebook app in general on both Android and iOS sucks too). I get my social networking fix from Twitter anyway, so I'm good without Facebook.

Auto-brightness always seemed pointless to me, so I always have that turned off. Those are all pretty good tips, actually. I don't have insane battery life, but mine's not so short that it's not comfortable. Thanks.
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
You just never know what people do. I have friends who would cry to.me cause I'd go a good 18+ hours a charge and they'd get 6-8 hours a charge. Would ask to see their phone and they had Facebook email twitter all syncing every 15 mins. Auto brightness off with the brightness as high as it goes. Also they would have wifi turned on when not on a wifi network.

I'd just sigh and recommend they buy an iPhone ;). Then I'd attempt explaining what they should do.
[HTC Rezound] f3liC:
My second rezound with similar battery times as the first. No syncing to anything other than gmail but after an hour and a half of straight usage (I just reflashed the rom and was setting it up the way I wanted again) and i already lost over 50%. Also had a replacement battery too and that didn't seem to help.

Also anyone know the exact way to get rid of the wifi icon on the top when not connected? Before I reflashed I was able to get rid of it but I cant seem to remember how I did it. Gonna go on to search for an answer in the meantime.
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
An hour and a half screen on time really isn't bad for 50% battery.

Your finding out that this gorgeous screen we have uses more juice than a Russian weight lifter.

As for the icon, it is in the theme section and there is one specifically made for this rom.
[HTC Rezound] :
That is interesting! Someone is going to have to explain pokemon to me sometime, I have no clue what the story is.

[HTC Rezound] matthall9815:
It will take a day for so for everything to settle, and smooth out. Also check your sync settings and set them for the longest period you can. Weather etc., and I usually turn off weather full screen animation. I use Green Power to handle the moble/wifi which works well (except when I want to use mobile when wifi is available). You can also lower the brightness of your screen, and change the sleep time. Certain programs cause the phone to work when you're not using it syncing etc and some just don't play nice. I'm sure all these guys have done at least some of these things to help out their battery lif. Mine is fine until I get home and start burning up screen time. It goes pretty quick then. You probably know all this, but just in case here you are.

Matt

Sorry if I'm posting the same info. By the time I finish the post at work someone else has already responded. :D
[HTC Rezound] SirSigma:
Yeah, that doesn't sound like too bad as far as battery goes. There's times when I used this ROM and have 60% or so left at the end of the day. Then I leave it uncharged overnight, and find that I still have about 41% left. Considering that's just standby time and that I'm not actively using the phone, I think that's fairly decent. I think that's about on par that I had with a cleaned up version of the stock ROM.

I still get email notifications (through Gmail; not the redundant email app), but that's the only thing I really need to have sync. Stuff like Twitter and other garble, I don't see the harm in letting it sync manually when you open it. Not only do you save a lot of battery this way, but you don't end up feeling tied to your social networking as long as your phone is with you.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
6.5 hours, 50% today with only 1 hour screen on time.

i'm sure my phone needs to just adjust to the new rom and all. i never get good battery life on ICS and sense 4 anyway though lol
[HTC Rezound] drbveb88:
I believe he's got the extended battery. If not I want to know what his setting are.
[HTC Rezound] matthall9815:
What exactly are you doing after you install a fresh rom? Are you adding anything from backup Programs or data? Can you provide a list if the apps you are installing maybe one of them is questionable.
[HTC Rezound] chefthomas99:
Any other "Facebook app" recommended to use?
[HTC Rezound] bokechukwu1:
You're on 4.0 Charmander correct? Also is that with standard battery or extended battery?
[HTC Rezound] androg421:
Friendcaster is pretty good.
[HTC Rezound] chefthomas99:
Try Fast Facebook
[HTC Rezound] :
Otterbox is the only thing stopping me from getting an extended battery. I value the safety of my phone, in my destructive hands, over battery life. I don't know why Otterbox doesn't make extended cases.

[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
They apparently do, its just the regular case without the back plastic piece
[HTC Rezound] trickster2369:
I understand your dilemma completely. However, if I am not keeping up with a thread for a few days, the first thing I do is start reading where I left off. Especially if there has been an update. This gives you an idea of the fixes, problems, and possible solutions to those problems. If I enter a new thread I haven't been looking at at all, I will AT LEAST start from where the last update took place to see how things are going, AFTER reading the OP and the first few posts.

This is my method, and it seems to work quite well, though not fool proof.

Edit: And yes, when I first started, I went through and read entire threads front to back, just so I understood what was going on. Since, I have learned what to look for when browsing threads.
[HTC Rezound] hopesrequiem:
that was all 4g. But auto sync off hehe
[HTC Rezound] Nic2112:
I love a good "real life" test like that. Most people have sync off all the time! lol
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
yep, standard. you'll all see the same battery life..i just always get **** life on ICS lol
[HTC Rezound] hopesrequiem:
It was like three but reset upon reboot. I hate that sense four does that. Messes up bat stats all the time. And nic, yeah u always leave auto sync off. No need for it in my day lol
[HTC Rezound] drbveb88:
How can you be on 4.0?
[HTC Rezound] Nic2112:
Beta tester probably.
[HTC Rezound] pmania:
Ok so right now I've got amon ra 3.15, jbear hboot 2.21, but I flashed the 3.14 radios seperately. Would running the 3.14 ruu help my battery life?

yeah lol

[HTC Rezound] trickster2369:
I would guess not. But that's just my opinion, and my opinion is free. :D

That's the same way I'm set up now, and my battery is pretty decent.
[HTC Rezound] 760hacker:
YOu lucky SOB, how is beta, hoping bugless so we can all get the RC:D
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
haha doin' pretty good. haven't had a random reboot or anything yet. rosie is nice and smoove.

you know what i noticed about ICS in general, though? the volumes are so damn loud lol..my LOWEST setting, was like setting 3 or so on GB. crazy. now i have to shut all my volumes off when i sleep at night :(
[HTC Rezound] 760hacker:
Thanks! rather it be loud than the other way around like GB!
[HTC Rezound] drbveb88:
Aww man.. I wanna be a beta tester, lol. How's the bluetooth?
[HTC Rezound] Nic2112:
You don't want to be a beta tester, you just want to run the ROM before everyone else ;)
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
joel's still working on it, hence why it wasn't released yest.
[HTC Rezound] drbveb88:
Your right about that one. I don't know enough to be a beta tester. LOL
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
still noticing something that i awlays see in all ICS roms; when i'm plugged into a PC for disk drive mode, when i goto unmount, i set to charge..unplug...and then the phone will NOT see music/pics again until a reboot. i've unmounted/mounted the sd card manually like 4 times, and my pics don't show up, and my music won't show up. must be an HTC error.
[HTC Rezound] nnnnr14:
Mine doesn't do that...

[HTC Rezound] SirSigma:
Actually, I have this problem every now and then, too. It only happens when I transfer some stuff to my phone and want to look at it. I end up rebooting and it works perfectly. I've had this on other ICS roms, too.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
yep, it's def an ICS thing, i've had it since day 1. gotta reboot every single time this happens. it's not this rom, guys lol it's ICS in general. just thinking outloud :D
[HTC Rezound] SirSigma:
I'm probably in a minority, but I kind of hope it takes a while to roll out 100%. Mostly if it meant that everything would be more polished and up to speed. That, and it's only been a little over a week since 3.2.0 was released.
[HTC Rezound] YamiYaiba:
After an 8 hour ordeal attempting (and finally succeeding) in getting s-off, I have made the jump from old firmware BAMF 0.9.1 to 3.14 firmware and this ROM. Forgive me is this is a dumb question, but I'm kinda fried at this point.

The three dot menu button bar is annoying the crap out of me. I would very much like all of my screen back. How do I get rid of it?
[HTC Rezound] SirSigma:
Here's how I did it. Just follow these steps and I think you'll be good. I tried to be as specific as possible to prevent confusion.

There is a fix in the thread, try the search button and you'll find it.
[HTC Rezound] Pomacat:
Look back somewhere in the posts someone tells you how to get rid of the 3 dots. I did it.
[HTC Rezound] gramsey1911:
I would try copying you pics to the computer then back to your card...it worked for me
[HTC Rezound] matthall9815:
Have you thought about cutting away the cushion material that is in the way, then putting the plastic outer layer on?
[HTC Rezound] mjh68:
I just use the otterbox case without the plastic back. I use the front and then just wrap the rubber back over the battery and it works fine. Have dropped it a few times this way and not even a scratch .

Car Mode Request

Upon inserting the Rezound into the car dock.. Venasaur 3.2.0 forces Car Mode + it's always in landscape mode & it turns on Wi-Fi radio :(

Is it possible to add more control over these options.. especially defeating the Wi-Fi radio being turned on!?

Preferred would be to present a menu with an option of google car, htc car mode, etc... AND to force either portrait or landscape modes.

Also being able to add/modify the app links within car mode menu would be great.

These have all probably been covered already... but just wanted to throw in my two cents.

Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] zounduser:
anywho........:) joel, changelog looks sick bro!!
[HTC Rezound] hopesrequiem:
On another note just found an odd issue on 3.2 . Messages all of a sudden look like this lol

Edit reboot fixed it
[HTC Rezound] pstevep:
Am I missing something here?? Is this where we make fun of users?? because I'm pretty sure this is a rom thread, and I have just waded through a ton of crap. I know Joelz takes a while to update his roms from time to time, but people be respectful.. Yeah I appreciate that some of you reported posts, but then instead of letting it be, you guys act like children and make fun of people.. the point of reporting a post is so a moderator can come in a look at it and deal with the user appropriately. The problem is most of you that reported posts just made things worse, by trying to be cool, now there are pages of crap on here that are worse than the actual reported posts.

I know some of you aren't the douchebags you are making yourselves out to seem, how about we be respectful to each other from here on out. I mean goodness guys, come on.
[HTC Rezound] Pomacat:
Sorry to stir up things

This has nothing to do with the rom. I did not mean to stir up things with anyone some of you may be Senior members but I am a Senior Citizen who likes to flash roms and enjoy my phone. I guess posting on here has been better sweet so from now on I guess I will just read what is said and leave the posting to you all.
[HTC Rezound] Nic2112:
That's what happens when Joel doesn't post a rom for a week ;)
[HTC Rezound] live2die:
this week i am in a poor signal reception area, and i got several lock-ups, and i had to pull the battary. anybody with me?
[HTC Rezound] RomsWell:
Unmounting at the pc prior to remounting on the phone is a good rule of thumb also. I don't know if this device is all that picky about media locations, but I'm also in the habit of always keeping media in a folder named Media on root and sub folders Music Pictures and so on. I know the tb was picky about folder names "case sensitive" being on root or Media sub dir. Dunno food for thought.
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
Agreed. All my music is in a folder named music on the SD card itself, photos are under media photos. Also have folders for music videos, videos etc.

Never had a problem with my phone finding any files by doing this.

More options? Having 2 menu buttons 5 cm from each other?
[HTC Rezound] hopesrequiem:
It's convenient if it's bright out and the real menu buttons cannot be seen. Who cares if he likes it? It's a preference lol that's the fun of android. You have options
[HTC Rezound] Nic2112:
Regardless, enabling or disabling the three-dot menu is a single line in the build prop file. I wouldn't be surprised if there is a toggle in the tweaks that will come with version 4.0

All that needs to be done is to add the line and comment it out if the tweaks setting is set to disabled.
[HTC Rezound] Watercycle:
possibly a radio problem with the newest ruu or is it to this rom only?
[HTC Rezound] gramsey1911:
I totally understand that but keep something in mind and con27 knows about this...when you disable the 3 dot menu you will lose the arrows on the keyboard in some app's.

If you don't use the arrows then you don't care but if you do use the arrows then you will care.
[HTC Rezound] syikho:
I think instead of closing these threads and cleaning them up YZ needs to start throwing the ban hammer on repeat offenders who always go off topic but then get pissed when someone can't find something in this damn thread.

[HTC Rezound] Christopher3712:
To the best of my knowledge, the use of a CDMA base benefits us because our phones are CDMA based (plus GSM, but that's another matter). With the HTC One (Evita), I understand there was a lot of porting involved because that is a GSM phone. It seems the more you have to port, the more you have an opportunity for bugs to appear. In that line of thinking, the rebase should be much cleaner for us. That should be pretty amazing, considering all the fixes they already made on the Evita base.
[HTC Rezound] PUERTO_RUK:
You can try this method to see if it works. Download GPS Status from the Play Store (it's free). Next, on your stock ROM run GPS Status and download additional data(not much) . Get a location lock on in maps. Once you have a good lock on, reboot and go into recovery. Wipe all your data (system,cache, dalvick cache -the usual). Flash this ROM again. Once it settles and you restore your apps and data (minus Maps data) run GPS Status again and then run Maps. Hopefully this helps you get a location lock on. It's what I used to do whenever I ran a cm7 ROM on my TBolt.
