[HTC Rezound] Tornlogic:
I never said the gnex is a better phone, but the current market thinks otherwise. If you hit swappa, the average gnex is $400, whereas the average Rezound is $300.

With all due respect for both you and your phone, I'm not willing to do an even trade.

I probably need to find someone who doesn't even know how to turn s-off let alone root, and who is disgusted with their phone for whatever reason. I'm probably not going to find this person in these forums. It was worth asking.

I am sorry tho. I didn't mean no harm to a fellow Rezound owner. I hope one day I can have the honor to post here as a Rezound owner myself. :-)
[HTC Rezound] Tornlogic:
TDS40, thanks for the run down. I'm a gamer and it's nice to know this without currently owning an Rezound.
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
Modern warfare 3 on the rezound...

That would be so hard to play!
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
Nah, that's ok if I've gotta throw in cash. I've got an upgrade and frankly given the signal strength horror stories, I'd rather be able to return it at will if need be.

Thanks though.
[HTC Rezound] Tornlogic:
Sure thing. I completely understand.
[HTC Rezound] TDS40:
Its driving me crazy that Dead Space is not compatible with the Razr. I'm constantly checking for an update.

As far as I'm concerned Dead Space is the best HD game ever made for the Rezound. Its the game I would frequently show friends to demonstrate the Rezounds gaming ability. If you don't have this game you're missing out.

Anyone disagree with me? Or is there even a better game I haven't played yet?

NOVA 2 HD was also one of my frequently played Rezound games.
[HTC Rezound] Tornlogic:
Dungeon Defenders is an great show of force. Dead Space is good too. Reckless Racing 2, and Hot Pursuit are with mentioning.

For indepth gaming Order and Chaos is right up there with Dead Space.

This brings up a good question. I play dungeon defenders a lot, and even on my gnex it runs choppy at times, like every 40 seconds of gameplay it stutters for 10. This could be sure to my kernel tho. Question is, how does the gameplay on the Rezound?
[HTC Rezound] TDS40:
I haven't tried dungeon defenders yet at all, maybe I should. Hopefully someone else will weigh in on your question.

The other games you mentioned are fun.

Reckless Getaway is allot of fun too.
[HTC Rezound] Tornlogic:
I'll have to check out reckless getaway. DD is free, so it's with it for sure. At least fire it up to use as a demo to see how your hardware fairs. It crushes older phones like the DroidX.
[HTC Rezound] TDS40:
Dungeon Defenders is awesome. I turned the graphics up to max. The game lags a little but runs fine. The graphics are eye candy.
[HTC Rezound] tantran:
Dead Space is great but it really drains battery and causes my phone to overheat
[HTC Rezound] TDS40:
How hot is your phone getting?

My first Rezound would get to 131°.

My second Rezound didn't get hot or overheat at all....but it had connection issues where my first Rezound didn't???
[HTC Rezound] Land Master:
LMAO .. You'd have to pay me $75 to take it off your hands. Oh.. and you pay shipping both ways.. lol

Seriously though... The GNEX is more of a toy and it certainly is cool for those that appreciate the "openness" of the device. However, if you actually need to use it as a PHONE you probably want to look elsewhere.

And, in keeping with the topic of the thread. I have a Rezound and the wife has a Maxx. The best thing is that her charger works on my phone and she never needs it. She likes the Maxx but she is not a "power" user like most of us. I have played with it a little and it is "bulky". I just don't like the way it feels. I haven't compared the screen, but other have above. Sounds like you may want to stick with the Rezound and just get a spare battery. And you should go to the Razr forums and see what development looks like. Last I checked the bootloader was locked on the Razr but that was months ago.
[HTC Rezound] Kelton Rivas:
I can't believe you've had these problems with your Rezound, to be honest. Mine has worked flawlessly; another phone sounds alien.
[HTC Rezound] tantran:
130 degrees just like your first one
[HTC Rezound] movielover76:
Rezound > Razr

In my opinion the Rezound is better than the Razr, the only thing the Razr Maxx has is battery life, if it feels like the Razr Maxx's gpu is faster it's only because it's got a lower res screen it's only pushing 540 x 960 pixels while the Rezound is pushing 1280 x 720 pixels

But if your Rezound keeps overheating that's probably a moot point, I haven't had any problems with Heat, guess I'm one of the lucky. I would love to have the maxx's battery in such a slim package, I use the extended 2850 rezound battery and I love the extra battery life, but it is a little bulky.
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
I just looked at the dev forum for the razr. It is almost non-existent. Most of it is radios and stock ROMs.
[HTC Rezound] TDS40:
Without a doubt going to the Razr took some adjusting. The screen on the Rezound is much better.

But the Razr does have a few features that are better than the Rezound. Smart actions are something HTC should look into. ;) The Swype keyboard is more advanced also. Call reject always gives the option of a text reply.

No the Razr is not the Perfect phone but its working fine for what I need. :)
[HTC Rezound] THE-COPS:
Both my sis and brother inlaw have Razr Maxx's. First thing first....I had my Rezound since December last year. I really love this phone......but..the two things that BUG me about it.... The battery life sucks ass!! Seriously.. I use the phone a lot and I swear I'm tossing it on the charger twice a day. I get maybe 3.5 hours of use out of the battery on heavy use. Thats mainly web site and facebook posting etc etc. Moderate camera usage but id say the cam gets used everyday..oh especially Camera360 .Hot damn...love that app! The other thing that bothers me is that horrible compression noise and beeping noise in sound and video recordings. I cant stand that noise..its the sole reason I rarely use the video mode ...but I love photography and the camera on this thing is excellent for a phone camera. That just tells you how much I despise that crappy noise..ehhhhhh..I understand, cant have the best of both worlds ehh.

The Razr Maxx ..well, I just love the battey life on that thing. Sis is on that thing all day chatting and playing facebook games. She is usually not having to charge until late at night...me..helll I live on my charger ehh... :p .... The Razr also has excellent speaker quality. The sound coming from the speaker/s is so loud and full with good midtones and midbass. The Rezounds speaker volume is just low and I cant get it to go that loud without distortion. Using the DSP app helps some.. but yah, thats my take on these 2 phones.
[HTC Rezound] TDS40:
Right now 20 hours 13 minutes and still 50% battery remaining. Slow but long day.

But If I'm on my Razr Maxx all day long I can kill the battery in 18 hours, with heavy use.

I really like the 3300mAh battery. :)
[HTC Rezound] tonictonic:
Only thing that kills my battery is 4G use or 3D gaming. About 4 hours of constant use in that fashion. Other heavy use like constant web surfing and facebooking I get at least 12 hours. Combined with the noise problems you're getting it seems like you ended up with a bad phone.
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
I don't know. I know if you really handicap the phone it can get great battery life, but if you don't turn off 3g or turn the display down to 10%, then this phone while streaming or online games easily burns close to 1000mah which on a stock battery is about 1.5hr, closer to 3hr on the extended.
[HTC Rezound] LexRockhard:
The new videos showing ICS on the razr are encouraging, IMO. I'm glad that they've toned down blur. I only saw the intro video but it looked like 90% aosp. Under the hood, however, might be a different story.
[HTC Rezound] Evilmonstertruck:
The maxx battery is the only thing it has on the rezound.. I am personally waiting for the One X to be hacked to work on Verizon.
[HTC Rezound] TDS40:
The Maxx has a better radio,...way better.

I travel allot and the Maxx gets data in places where the Rezound doesn't. In fact that was the final straw for me...being around coworkers in North Dakota that had a perfect signal, on the same Verizon network while I had no data signal at all???

The Longer I had my Rezound the less I liked it.

The longer I have had my Maxx the more I like it. Its a solid platform with a lot less issues. ;)
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
Sounds like your Rezound was defective.

I have had zero issues with mine (and i bought it last october) and the radio is every bit as good as my Sons maxx.
[HTC Rezound] TDS40:
I think your right about it being defective.

I was on my 3rd replacement Rezound when I threw in the towel Believe me when I say I wanted it to work I have always loved HTC phones.
[HTC Rezound] THE-COPS:
Screen eats it up according to this. I noticed if im touching the screen a lot is when the battery goes down, but if the scrern stays on for a long time without being touched, it doesnt go down much. So it appears to be the touch sensor on the screen eating the battery. Below is my brightness setting as to what I have always set it at.

Edit... Never mind. The "Choose File" isnt opening the file browser prompt... Cant upload pics
[HTC Rezound] leroybrute:
Yea, I have both the rezound and the razr maxx, and the maxx radios are not in the same league as the rezound! From 3g to 4g hand offs to signal and download speeds, go to the rezound. I have always been partial to moto as to why I have or had most all of motos creations. Motorola has always had great radios but hTC has an edge right now.
[HTC Rezound] Evilmonstertruck:
The radio on the maxx doesnt even come close to the radio the rezound has.. Even without the updates to the radio on the rezound.. You just had a bad phone. Thats the ONLY explanation for it. When i got my rezound it was sitting next to the nexus and regular razor and the signal on the rezound was full while the other two only had half. I couldnt be happier with this phone. I wish it was a HTC One X though :D
[HTC Rezound] TDS40:
I find that interesting considering that both Verizon tech support and HTC tech support have acknowledged connectivity issues in the Rezound. Verizon told me many devices have been returned with this issue, and HTC told me they believe the problem is caused by the software and that they have been working on a fix.

It sounds like you have one awesome Rezound. I had 3 defective in a row. I'm failing to see that as HTC having the edge right now.
[HTC Rezound] blestsol:
No beef but you're some one who moved on from the rezound and expressed how you had three duds... And you wrote that both Verizon and HTC said rezound has issues. Kinda hard to trust your word.
[HTC Rezound] leroybrute:
We have 4 Rezound's in our house. All 4 seem to work as well as the other. I have 11 lines between 2 accounts so I spend a lot of time on the phone and at the corporate store. And I hear the complete opposite. The most reliable android phone Verizon carries at the moment is the hTC Rezound. According to tech support and store reps. We all know that a grain of salt gets spread throughout but I have some experience with these phones.

4 rezounds, maxx, bionic, GNex, all in order for data connectivity and download speeds.

My oppinion is You had a few duds but most likely wanted something new.
[HTC Rezound] TDS40:
If it makes you feel any better, I told the truth. That's right Verizon tech support and HTC did tell me exactly what I stated.

I may not have worded it in their exact words. But it was clear to me that the issues I've mentioned are rather common. ;)
[HTC Rezound] TDS40:
That's exactly what it was. :)
[HTC Rezound] blestsol:
Make me feel better? Lol.

I'm just saying what's wild is majority of people on here say the opposite period. But maybe you and those two reps don't like Rezound?

:rolleyes:
[HTC Rezound] TDS40:
The Rezound was awesome, but like any phone I'm sure a certain % are defective.

Im sure I got the unlucky lotto there. :)
[HTC Rezound] tonictonic:
I live at the extreme end of town, where I barely eek into range of the LTE towers here, and the rezound is the only phone that gives me a consistent 4G connection, though rarely does my signal strength go over 1 bar. Oddly enough, even at 1 bar my download speeds are blazing fast at 20+ mbps, sometimes hitting over 30.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerm1027:
So, I have an HTC Evo 4G running Gingerbread Deck 1.3, with the Tiamat Evo v4.1 kernel (2.6.38.8) and I've been having issues with the wired/USB tether. I've been trying it connect to two laptops running Ubuntu 11.10 and 12.04 and it doesn't work on either. I ran ifconfig on both and USB0 interface doesn't show up. I'm using the native tethering app, but I also used Wired Tether 1.4, and that didn't work. The log didn't show any errors. I can't find anything wrong with either laptop or the phone besides the fact that USB0 is not showing up and no tethering. The hotspot/wifi tether works fine, and I can mount the SD card fine. Could someone help me out?

UPDATE: So, I tried tethering again with a live USB boot of Ubuntu, and still nothing. Clearly this is an issue with the phone. I recall this feature working before, but I can't remember if it was with gingerbread deck or CM7. I had this problem before with my Epic 4G, but it had something to do with the USB stack. Is that still an issue? Any tips on finding out the root of the problem?

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kabrutus:
Does anyone know if it is possible to swap the backplate of the TF300t and put it on the TF201? My prime suffers from poor wifi and wondered if it would be possible. I saw them both at Best buy and they looked identical. I really like the prime but cant stand not being able to connect to wifi's at hotels because not in range.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
likely not..it wouldn't fit right.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
The other question is...where would you even find a t300 back plate?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hevey:
Also the TF300 doesn't have a flash from what I remember so it would also cause a problem there.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pileot:
i have a 201 and 301 sitting right in front of me. Though very similar, ports and slots are in different places just slightly. It would take a lot of work with a dremel just to get the holes to line up, let alone compatability in connecting everything.

On the prime EVERYTHING is connected to the back case, thats where everything is fastened to. Take that out and you got nothing.

Sorry but without extensive modding this just can not be done.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] indie13:
Just thinking for the future, I wonder if the TF700 and the 201 may be closer and maybe a better (future) option than the 301 to 201??

I know this is under the firmly under the speculation category.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ridder215215:
I believe the Prime's Wifi pogo connectors aren't on the back side, in fact they are on the front. I read on a guide that you can press the bezel on the front camera side to improve Wifi and possibly GPS connection.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] mickeyindahouse:
Well i'm sorry but i'm not allowed to post in the specific topic regarding the megabasbeatsmod and i'd like to remove this mod. One user in this topic asks the same question and the author says just remove the files manually but which files exactly have to be removed :)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] abhijitro:
Just reflash to the stock rom. there is no way to remove it
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] mickeyindahouse:
Well author says it's possible so i hope it really is and someone else comes up with an answer or confirms what you are saying.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] kurotsugi:
you'll need to delete a lot of files. extract my zip file, and make a list of files in these folder. after that, with root explorer go to see these folder:

1. /system/app : delete only 'audioeffectservice.apk'

2. /system/bin : delete all files listed in my zip file

3. /system/etc : delete all files listed in my zip file

4. /system/framework : delete all files listed in my zip file

5. /system/lib : delete all files listed in my zip file except libaudioeffect_jni.so.

don't delete anything else.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] mickeyindahouse:
Yeah i should have back-upped it but well it's a rather fresh install but not fresh enough to consider reverting back to stock again :D On the other side, i have enough roms on my sd-card to install so no problems with that ;)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] mickeyindahouse:
Thanx a lot ! :D
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Kousthubha Kumar:
Yep kurotsugi is the Mr.Dependable in G-Y forums..You can just follow his posts without any doubt and he is always helpful to others

PS I don't really find the reason to remove this.. I've never felt a mod better than this and I've tried all mods.. Anyways its your wish :D
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] mickeyindahouse:
Well i allready had the feeling that i wouldn't have to doubt Mr. Dependable :D Very nice of him that he helped me out with my question and so fast :)

Well maybe you're right and i've to re-consider it but gf said it looked like sound came from to far away, but i liked it actually because i like that kind of effect. Tho i'm not sure if it came from the mod or else but now i can compare it better when i can revert it back and i'll check it with flac format this time instead of mp3. So didn't made up my mind up yet actually about this mod :)

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyPeter:
Hi, I have a unbranded, unlocked Arc S, running ICS, and I want to flash the 4.04 image, which comes as a CWM zip.

Everything is currently stock but rooted.

The 4.04 update is a ZIP (rather than a FTF), so I think I need CWM installed to flash the update. I can't find anything that tells me how.

I found a easy installer, but it categorically says don't use it with ICS.

HELP!!!

Look in the dev section for the stock ics kernel with cwm is the simplest way.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
Use fastboot to boot either a custom kernel like ArcNight or DoomKernel, or cobratos modded stock. They contain cwm, on boot repeatedly press any of the h/w keys to enter cwm and flash the zip on the sdcard.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyPeter:
I only ever found the old beta kernel for ICS, not the final one. Got a link?

I tried the auto CWM installer, and yes it did install onto stock ICS, and I managed to install the 4.04 ZIP, but now it just hangs on the Sony startup screen.

Any advice on how to get back to something that works?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smartarse93:
Sorry I haven't looked at that Rom as it's a dev Rom thats been ported, before installing that Rom did you make a cwm backup? Otherwise you install another Rom.

[HTC EVO 3D] tjb3401:
You can pretty easily unroot/return to stock. I did that recently when my 4G radio stopped working and got a free replacement in 3 days. Follow this guide, but the download for the pg86img is outdated so get the zip from here.
[HTC EVO 3D] JohnM:
Or if you're not running a custom ROM, you can just download a different launcher and in the settings hide the superuser app. That's all they check for.

[HTC EVO 3D] Cetus Corr:
Thanks guys, I was wondering because the guy at the store said they wouldn't work on a rooted phone, but wondered if they would check the bootloader to see if it says unlocked or relocked.

"How come you are not baptized?"
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
If you are worried about it, just unroot and go back to a stock rom. It really only takes a few minutes to unroot, and then reroot when you get it back. That little time can save you trouble if they do fully check to see if you are rooted. I know a lot of people say their local stores don't check, but if your store does check, you would be screwed.
