[HTC Rezound] bluetooth_decay:
Were you ever able to flash a recovery?

I couldn't get the one-click root thing to work, but I had already unlocked the bootloader using the htcdev.com method. So I used fastboot to flash Amon Ra, then booted into that and chose the "install superuser" option, which does the root.
[HTC Rezound] LakerStar25:
You can't use amonra to root on ICS. You just have to install amonra and flash a Rom they are prerooted.

Sent from my Sense4 ICS Rezound
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
You can also flash a SU.zip

Sent from my ADR6425LVW
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
once again flashing SU is NEVER NEEDED. nearly all roms are pre-rooted so this dflashing by recovery needs to be wiped from your heads. read rom installs and you'll never read a part saying "flashing superuser is required.
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
Yea well I'm old fashioned when all the ROMs weren't pre rooted.

Sent from my ADR6425LVW
[HTC Rezound] supersquirrel211:
yes i have flashed a recovery, amonra. i am still on stock rom, guess thats why i dont have SU permissions, even if i flash it from with in recovery. so do i need to flash a GB rom, or can i flash an ICS rom and if i can do a ICS rom is there something special i need to do first such as flash a kernal or do kernals and radios come with the rom that is flashed weather its GB or ICS? thank you so much yall for what you've said in the past few posts, i have a much better understanding of how this particular device works now, definitely a bit different than what i am used to
[HTC Rezound] michaelbsheldon:
no root?

Your best bet is to install one of the developer's ICS roms

here on xda.

You'll find they're already rooted and ready to go.
[HTC Rezound] supersquirrel211:
any suggestions on the most stable and all things working, not worried about bloatware cause i can just freeze or un install as needed. just want to make sure i can flash it right over the stock GB i am on now, wipe everything first. just want to make sure everything works with the ICS rom cause i use the camera, gps, blue tooth, ...etc

or a link to what you suggest?
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
There arw a variety of leaks that are rooted. Nils was good on the Inc.

I went Sense 4 with Venasaur. Its been stable for me.
[HTC Rezound] LakerStar25:
Sorry for some reason on tapatalk I hit quote and it kept giving thanks lol. But the Rom I used that was always stable for me was cleanrom.

Sent from my Sense4 ICS Rezound
[HTC Rezound] supersquirrel211:
yes, i just downloaded Venassaur, so all i do is put on root of sd and boot into recovery then flash a zip from sd? funny when i plug in computer and select disk drive it has two different drives open on comp, which one is the sd card, they seem to be about identical

lol, nevermind, must be the drive saying removable vs the one saying HTC storage.....
[HTC Rezound] LakerStar25:
The one that has more space:D it should show the available space like 15gb out of 29.7gb that would be the SD card plus the internal storage should pop up as HTC storage that's how it shows on mine.

Sent from my Sense4 ICS Rezound
[HTC Rezound] supersquirrel211:
am i right though in just booting into recovery, and flash zip from sdcard? i mean thats how ive done in the past but so far this rezound is nothing like my previous HTC devices. seems like a small down load in comparison to what the thunderbolt always had for downloads on roms....
[HTC Rezound] LakerStar25:
Yea as long as its on the SD card just boot to recovery wipe and flash

[HTC Rezound] supersquirrel211:
well.....dunno whats going on, i wiped, flashed from recovery all after a nand backup. but for about 20min now its been stuck on the white screen w the green HTC. should i keep waiting or do i need to re-flash?....

actually its been about 45mins stuck on the screen
[HTC Rezound] supersquirrel211:
what exactly do you mean about the "pika pika pika" dont quite understand?
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
I can't remember if you're S-Off, but it sounds like the kernel didn't flash. If you're S-On, you will need to pull the boot.img and flash it through bootloader. I think there is a PH98IMG.zip in the Venasaur thread for it.

The boot sound on Venasaur is Pikachu howling at you. It went off at work one day for me...I chucked my phone in my desk drawer and ducked down lol.

Sent from my evolving Rezound.
[HTC Rezound] supersquirrel211:
aahhh, okay i got ya on the boot sounds now....and yes i am s-on, so i will check for the boot image in the venasaur link, dont need to restore my nand though right, just find the boot and rename it and flash in bootloader, then should be okay to reboot and all be good

edit: just take sd out of phone to add the boot image right?
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Exactly!

I highly recommend S-Off, btw.

Sent from my evolving Rezound.
[HTC Rezound] supersquirrel211:
oh trust me i am going to s-off as soon as i am able to, just cant do it until i put a rom on here..i am having trouble trying to put the boot image i downloaded on the root of sdcard though, says it cant be moved there? any thoughts?

edit:nevermind, had write protection on the sd card, just turned it off then added the "old firmware patch" link and going to flash in recovery, do i still need to extract from the rom or just leave it be since i found the link for the patch?
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Honestly, I would re-lock it, run a RUU, S-Off, then flash.

You're gonna save yourself so much headache that way.

Sent from my evolving Rezound.
[HTC Rezound] supersquirrel211:
yea this method i tried didn't work..so, what do you mean relock it run a ruu, then s-off? you mean i could have done this a different way? damn! lol, i thought i was going the proper way, i am definitely confused now, please guide me on what i should do from this point...the way your talking about doing..
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Okay. First, you will need to relock the bootloader. I forget the fastboot command, but if you google "rezound fastboot lock bootloader" you should find it.

Next, you'll want to run the RUU exe of your choice. If you're going to go ICS, you might as well run the ICS leak RUU.

Then download ControlBear, and run it for S-Off, details at unlimited.io

Note: for the wire trick, a paper clip wrapped in electrical tape works just fine.

Let ControlBear flash hboot.

After that, do NOT unlock the bootloader. There is no need. Flash your recovery (I recommend Amon-Ra), then flash your ROM and you're golden.

ControlBear will wipe your SD card, at the least back it up, I recommend using a small back up sd for the process.

Feel free to shoot me a pm if you need some more help!

[HTC Rezound] supersquirrel211:
right on, i appreciate all the help! i will try Hasoons kit to relock the bootloader then proceed, i will shoot u a pm if need be, going to try to figure it out though...

also to everyone else that had some input on this thread, i greatly appreciate all the advice and help, good to know there are good peeps to help out us novice's

edit: alright, i am now re locked...now to figure out how to run the ICS RUU leak....guess its run in boot loader since i no longer have a recovery

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emprize:
Hi, can i ask,

1. Can i just change the lcd density from build.prop if im using rooted stock 4.03 lpf? If i change to 240, any problem will occur?

2. How can i set stay awake when usb plugged in this rom?

3. Do we have crt animation? Is it samsung ruin it and have to wait them fix it?

Thx everyone
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badjaguar007:
Ofcourse you can ask :)

1. Use ROM Toolbox Lite (Free) Application from market. Now go to Performance Tab & You can tweak there the lcd density. If you change density, usually nothing as such happens. Except that some widgets which are built on particular density crash. I had weather widget which used to work only in 320 density. So now it doesn't work in 280 (which is my current). I killed the widget now :P

What is the worst I have faced by changing the dpi? FCs, Widget Crashes & Once a bootloop. All three can be resolved by one thing: Flash back the ROM xD

2. Another app called as smart app protector (free) is in market. I guess they have a tab called 'Screen' through which you can set LCD to be awake when a particular app is running. I hope this should resolve. Not sure on this though.

3. It depends on which ROM you are in. Yes, we do have CRT animations. I am on Asylum ICS. I do have it.

If you want to go ahead and manually enable it: http://www.freeyourandroid.com/guide/enable-crt-animation

this should help you get some idea on how to.

Well, there ain't any shortcut to the manual trigger bouy! :)
[General Questions and Answers] yankee2110:
Hi. I apologize if this question was answered before, but I did not find it in the Search. Maybe I am just not typing in the right thing.'

Anyway, I used the mempodroid method to upgrade my Galaxy Nexus from 4.0.2 to 4.0.4 IMM30b. If I understand correctly, I never unlocked my bootloader and so did not wipe any of my data. Can I do a Factory Reset to 4.0.2 or do I have to go through a more manual route.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graphic1982:
So before I ask my question I wanna make one thing clear. I have 100% respect for the devs that work on our phones and can't wait to see what ICS source brings us.

Now to the question. Before all these ICS leaks we had EL29 source for our phone. However we only ever had on variant of custom kernel (Rogue). All I keep hearing is that once source drops for ICS we'll see a lot of custom ROMs and kernels. If we have source for GB why aren't there any other custom kernels? I guess I'm just a little confused on what source will bring us, besides allowing us to build a pure AOSP kernel and allow over and underclocking on TW roms.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
Are you saying rogue was the only gb kernel for this phone?

If so you haven't been here long..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] revamper:
I believe he is referring to gunslinger/hitman and all the kernels before it made by team rogue which allowed voltage changing and overclocking. Not the repacked stock kernels.

[Motorola Droid X2] skigill:
I have a mx2 with ntelos carrier. I flashed eclipse 2.2 and was wondering about a fix for the mms. I used voice dialer to open apn's and when opened there were none listed. The eclipse rom uses verizon, and when I open it lists the verizon apn's. Is this the reason mms cannot be sent? Is there a way to delete the verizon apn's?
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
Yes that's the reason mms is not working. As for a fix, dont think there is one because I couldn't find one either. Just start emailing pics lol.
[Motorola Droid X2] skigill:
Wish it was like the ol htc desire, there were tons of ways to change it!
[Motorola Droid X2] JWnSC:
Try adding a new apn with the mmsc "http://mms.ntelospcs.net" or if there is one already listed edit that one via voice dialer. I'm going to flash my bro's phone soon I'll let you know if i get it working.
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
Thats the problem. There's no option to add a new APN.
[Motorola Droid X2] JWnSC:
Can you edit the one that's there? I don't have acess to his phone right now but when i do I'll check it out. Btw what firmware version were you running when you flashed eclipse? he'd like to get it running on his also which is why i ask.
[Motorola Droid X2] skigill:
No it wont let you edit anything. there are a couple apns listed, but you cant edit them.
[Motorola Droid X2] twobrare:
I do not know if this would help or not. But their are some backup stuff in the market. I tried to mess with one yesterday but it did not work. I am trying to figure this out because if we could get APN change then awesome. Have you thought about trying to change it in the ROM itself? Through the zip file? That is my next venture. I will let you know what comes up!

THank you,

Twobrare
[Motorola Droid X2] skigill:
I think that is the only way. I flashed back my stock rooted rom, installed apn backup and restore, then flashed eclipse back and tried to restore the backup, but no dice. If we could flash in recovery, it might work. Hopefully someone who really knows the rom can help. Thanks for all the help!

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phenombox:
UPDATE: Please see post #11 for update.

So today I was attending my exams, where I was forced to shut my phone off, which usually isn't a problem. However when I tried to turn it on after the exam, it vibrated for a long time (3s), then nothing happened, I tried again, regular start-up vibrate for 1s, but nothing happens afterwards.

At first I thought it was the battery, so when I came home I tried to turn on my phone using charger only. After a couple of tries it started to turn on screen and show SONY logo, after loading the kernel (blue LED turns on), it turns off again. I've tried to enter the recovery, but it still turns off after 1s in the recovery.

I thought it might be related to the FOTA issue somehow, so I flashed the .ta update from the FOTA thread, however that had no effect on this issue.

It's worth mentioning that I was using the same ROM for quite some time and the only change i made since last reboot was to install premium version of baconreader, install facebook app (from the baconreader company), uninstall that app again and that's it.

Wiped everything I could (battery stats, dalvik, cache, data, system)

Formatted everything I could (/sdcard, /system, /data)

Mounted USB in CWM, transferred Arconium 3.C ROM to it

Flashed Arconium ROM, let it boot.

Phone works fine now :)

I believe it was a software error, however I don't know why it wouldn't even show SONY logo before, even if I reflashed the kernel (kernel loads before ROM, so should be unaffected iirc).
