[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shelby04861:
Just follow the directions in droidstyles guide for how to Odin back to stock. You don't need to use the screen to Odin back to stock. As far as pulling the files off your SD card, why not just go get a card reader and copy them onto your computer. I am guessing you have already done all your reading and tried this, in which case the answer is no then.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sullivan*:
The phone is already stock. I don't need to wipe a rom, just apps, contacts and personal info (factory reset I guess you would call it). I could just destroy the phone and keep the internal flash, but that seems like too much work and no replacement. :D

Took a while to find the guide you were talking about, but I think I got it as wiped as it's gonna get!! Thanks again, I appreciate the help

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TH3_ST0CK:
My Evo's speaker for calls recently stopped working. This will be the second time that I get it replaced, so I was just thinking about selling it back to Best Buy using my buy back program and then purchase a used Nexus S 4g off of craigslist. The only thing that I am worried about is a step down in the power and responsiveness from my evo. So my question is, is the difference between them big enough for me to take notice? And what about after Jelly Bean comes out?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] louderstill:
iv bought used EVOs

i have stayed w my nexus but

i'm always looking for a deal on another one

both have good points

you could go on about it for a while

i use my phone as a communication and work tool

not a gaming platform

the radio is better in the HTC

and it has native sense [if you like that...]

there's more development for the NS4G

and a wider range of options for the crack flasher

i like both screens

they are both running about the same price on CL here

ymmv...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IAndroidI:
Good choise Nexus S ftw :D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FirePoncho86:
The NS4G will get JellyBean sooner than the EVO...But if you're willing to do it, you might as well buy a GNex unlocked from the play store. They arent super cheap, but they sure as heck arent expensive.

You have got to be kidding me. Lol another great person about to leave. This phone is great and I've never been happier with a phone purchase but all these people leaving is really starting to make me hate this phone. I'm so close to adding a line to my plan just to upgrade to a nexus.
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
I'm debating on the s3 but heard it scratches like crazy. I couldn't deal with nex's radios cause my reception in my area is bad as it is
[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
Cause TW is garbage. Plus Sammy = slower than balls w/ updates. To me the S4/Adreno 225 isn't that huge of a boost to warrant being stuck on a carrier controlled device. Yeah they say it does better in benches but I could care less. Tried my friends AT&t OneX and it was laggy to the max.
[HTC Rezound] jmackin1016:
Really hate to see you leave, as i currently use your ROM, and its amazing. I have had this phone for only 3months, and was looking like there was hope for good developers on it, and now everyone's bailing out for the S3/Nexus. :-( guess I need to buckle down and learn to create ROMs myself.
[HTC Rezound] quepaso:
If the nexus had a usable camera that didnt look like a disposable, i'd have gotten one too.
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
The Nexus camera isn't that bad, still gets the job done nicely.

Welcome Con.
[HTC Rezound] username235:
+1, plus if I really need to take good pictures, I'll bring my real camera. The Nexus is much better than I expected.

Sent from my VZW Nexus
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
Not gonna lie, moving to the Nexus was worth it on so many levels, really reminded me of how badly skinned Android sucks. Stock GNex blew away any custom ROM here, no offense devs.

Then there's Jelly Bean.....
[HTC Rezound] quepaso:
Whats good enough for you is not for me. My brother has a nexus since day 1, the camera is essentially unusable, especially under low light conditions. Its not even considerable for taking any kind of pictures worth saving. The rezound camera is top tier in comparison. And i snap a ton of pics. If this werent the case, im sure i'd be very pleased with the nexus, but the camera is a deal breaker.
[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
Another Nexus vs Rezound thread go!
[HTC Rezound] Superm@π:
I just think its funny, the power of marketing can pull people off a superior phone in terms of hardware just by hyping up an inferior phone and allowing more wide open software development. .........but when we get source what will be the difference? I dunno guys, I'm pretty happy with this phone and I really don't like these goodbye forums. It gives the illusion that something is wrong with the rezound and further perpetuates the hype and needs to stop.
[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
Don't think they're implying there's anything wrong with the phone. But everyone knows there's something wrong w/ the Rezound's community/forums. That + dying development is imo pretty legit reasons for wanting to change phones. Hard to pass up the Jelly Bean!.
[HTC Rezound] quepaso:
There is something wrong with the rezound, the community for it is dead and it doesnt look good at all for the future of the phone. Most people who are on XDA want to own a phone with a strong community, Rezound is furthest from it. I am waiting for the Note 2 and im done with the rezound at that point.
[HTC Rezound] AndroidGraphix:
Thanks for the heads up. You've contributed a lot to the Rezound community.

[HTC Rezound] cstrife999:
So how do I root my phone? Lol jkjkjk I had to.
[HTC Rezound] mpoly112:
LoL, how do I get AmonRa recovery to load on my phone? I go to the recovery link in hboot, and select it, but all it does is reboot my phone, not sure, I'm unlocked and s-off but still can't get recovery to work so I can't install your ROM.
[HTC Rezound] cstrife999:
I got you beat... I flashed a GSM rom and don't know why I can't connect to CDMA :-)
[HTC Rezound] Insidious:
Same here. I'd probably be stuck in 1x at my house.
[HTC Rezound] mpoly112:
Or my favorite of all time,

I installed the ROM through recovery, followed all the steps, but I'm stuck on the boot screen????

Did you flash the GB patch in the OP?

Oh sh!t, must've missed that

CON, I know it's only been a few days, how's your love/hate meter on the Nexus?
[HTC Rezound] cstrife999:
You win that one :-)
[HTC Rezound] brando56894:
I was on the fence about what to get back in November; I loved that the Nexus didn't require any hoops to jump through in order to get full access to the phone and the on-screen buttons, but the Rezound came out sooner and reviews said it had better hardware. I've always kind of regretted that decision because I love to live on the bleeding edge. I just had to return my Rezound because the data radio was faulty, I was thinking about asking if it was possible to get a Nexus but decided against it. This Rezound gets a lot hotter than my old one and I'm contemplating on whether or not to make a big stink about it to try and get a Nexus. The only thing that scares me is that a good amount of people say that the Nexus' radio sucks balls :-/
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
Keep in mind nexus has mediocre camera and no sd card.

No sd is a major deal breaker for me.

[HTC Rezound] blackhand1001:
Bionic has a locked boot loader and it was quickly replaced by the razr.
[HTC Rezound] blackhand1001:
The newer nexus's radios seem better. Some of them were faulty.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
Doesn't help the fact that the hardware sucks...like the physical antenna inside of them.
[HTC Rezound] blackhand1001:
People have had luck getting them exchanged for another one.
[HTC Rezound] brando56894:
Yea that was one of the original reasons why I didn't immediately get it, but I have 48GB in my Rezound and only use about 3/4 of it. I also use Pandora for most of my music so I could deal with only 32GB of internal memory. The camera also doesn't bother me that much considering I don't really take a ton of pictures, just the occasional one here and there.
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
My suggestion is to just get one and test it out.

I have zero issues with my radios.
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
Do you still have the rezound? If so can you provide actual signal levels between the two? When I had the gnex there was nearly a -20dBm different between the two. My signal at my house isn't amazing to begin with. I dropped 4G like crazy with the gnex and my rezound holds it fine.
[HTC Rezound] Land Master:
Feel a little like we are beating a dead horse here but I'll say it again that this was my experience as well. Although, while signal strength is certainly a better indicator then number of bars, sometimes even these numbers can seem to be deceiving. I based my decision to return the GNEX solely on actual side by side "performance" using different speed test app's and simply the browsing "experience".

Also, the GNEX reported the ASU number while the Rezound (and my wife's Razr) do not. I never really did get a satisfactory definition of what that meant.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
What? Rezound shows asu too. Go into the hidden phone menu.
[HTC Rezound] SteveG12543:
Pics so it happened.
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
This the rezound?

Well I think it does. The tbolt, bionic, friends razr, resound all have been around -90dBm and never had 4G data drops. gnex was around -110dBm and couldn't keep 4G.

From this I feel it is a valid Q.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
yeah that's the rezound running one of those cleanrom senseless ones i believe. but yeah, my rezound shows ASU as well..i'd show you, but the sim card is in the nexus and i don't feel like activating the rez right now just for one picture..lol

and yea sympathy, my rezound idles around -83 in my home, and the nexus is -93...so there's a difference right there. my nexus has only turned 4g on ONCE since having it since tuesday, whereas the rezound will grab it all the time.
[HTC Rezound] Land Master:
No sweat guys. I didn't need pic's ... I believe you. I can't find it on my phone but I'm sure it's there somewhere.

That said ... can anyone really explain what it means?
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
See that is what bothers me about getting it. I use enough data that 4G is needed. I don't see the point in getting a phone I cannot use 4G on.

I might get the gsiii as a main phone then and the rezound as my Modding phone for now, and hope for a bootloader unlock. Looks like a HUGE amount of really talented revs there. Hell phone already has had root and it isn't even out yet.
[HTC Rezound] WookieFan:

[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
I have both phones bro. I use LWP on the Nexus and my battery life is great.
[HTC Rezound] armchairbear:
Sucks to see you leave.

And yeah, it does seem like dev on the Rez has slowed, but without RIL source, seems like there's isn't much else to do. But there are a few devs still updating their roms.

Sure, having AOSP would be nice, but I'm running Scott's cleanrom DE, and it's such a huge improvement, I don't feel the need for AOSP.

To me the Rez is a very well made phone where it counts. The speaker phone is loud, even in a loud car it works well. The handset speaker is loud. The screen is really nice, highest ppi. Never had a problem with reception. I get reception at places that my previous phones didn't.

I like flashing roms all the time, so I'll miss that, but really, all I need is one good rom.
[HTC Rezound] eman3316@optonline.net:
Camera in low light is really bad. I do not take low light pictures with it. I use my wifes Rezound for that, lol.

For well lit area's the Nexus' camera is just as good or better then the Rezounds camera.

For anyone who wants to jump the the GNEX, if you were to sell your Rezound it probably would not be t much out of pocket to then buy a used GNEX.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
I felt like this was going to happen with this phone... I would have bought a nexus of it had better specs hands down and didn't have old tech in it. Now it's just too old to spend money on imo lol. Next nexus though... I'm on it no matter what Lmao
[HTC Rezound] captcarl:
I also bought a nexus but had to return it and get the resound. The Nexus radio was so poor. lots of development but I cant use it as a phone in my home.

Captncarl
[HTC Rezound] blestsol:
yup, same boat im on.
[HTC Rezound] Dsoto87:
I chose the nexus over the gsIII because the nexus was essentially free from Amazon.

Though I enjoyed the rezound, the nexus feels like the phone I should have originally bought.

One thing I don't get about the phone community is the hate for another phone when one has never even touched said phone. If you bought the gnex and had issues, fine. But if you're hating on it because of hearsay or because of specs you've read about you have no room to talk.

Despite the "inferior" hardware, programs like Nova Launcher run so much smoother. This isn't a placebo affect either. I've used mine side by side and the difference is obvious. As for the camera I haven't been disappointed yet. Radios? Yes the signal may be worse but I have yet to get a dropped call or data. Speeds seem the same. Please don't even mention the plastic. The rezound is made of plastic also. I don't even know where that argument came from.

I really wanted to love the rezound. I came from the original DINC. I loved the phone, I loved the community. The rezound seemed like it was going to be the DINCs big brother. The development scene was just too slow (no offense to devs, thanks for your hard work). I was used to a huge variety of roms, where as all it seems we get is sense with a few different tweaks. With people jumping ship it only seems like the development community is only going to get smaller and slower.

Btw con. I recommend looking into the rengke slim case. This thing is just so damn sexy in white. Also, disabling the nav bar and than using LMT launcher just feels right. I never plan on using nav buttons again. It's funny, I've gotten so used to it that I find my self swiping and and forgetting the rezound has hard keys.
[HTC Rezound] BreatheALittle:
You will be missed. I love running your roms, as they have been the most dependable, non-buggy roms (in my opinion). Plus, you were always so involved in your threads, which resulted in every question being answered and every issue being resolved. Best of luck to you with your Nexus! If you happen to come back, I know that I will certainly welcome you with open arms! :)

Why so many trolls and haters clogging up this forum? It's not the lack of community but the constant winning from trolls that have nothing else to do. Just go hang out in your forum where your phone interests truly are and stop making such a fuss. Let's stick with op and thank him for all of the hard work he put into helping us out with Rezzy :'(
[HTC Rezound] rileyd5:
good luck Con. I hope you decide to come back but understand why you would to pick up the Nexus. I've been debating picking up an unlocked gsm version from the market and doing month to month with tmobile. I unfortunately can't pick one up on Verizon since my the rezound is my company line and they won't let me have two phones on the same line.
[HTC Rezound] Cares:
Look at the Bionic if you want to see dead. This phone is doing fine for now. Sure it isn't the Evo 4G or some other flagship developer phone but it's doing alright.
[HTC Rezound] wrarvoz:
I love my rezound and I don't have an upgrade available for another year, but after seeing what has happened this year, I already know my next phone will be a GSM version of the next "nexus" branded phone. That is, unless all the other manufacturers learn to really open up their phones for development.
[HTC Rezound] blestsol:
You're assuming people haven't used it.

Your experiences with the radios are yours.

The Nexus and ReZound are both plastic but one feels like it's barely in your hand.

[HTC Rezound] Cares:
In terms of development do I wish I got the Nexus? Yea sure I do...but does my Rezound work perfectly fine with what's available? Yea it does...people just never can be satisfied.
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
It's sort of sad to see what's happened to the Rezound, but HTC more generally. They can't seem to release a phone that gets much traction. From what I understand the One X/EVO 4G have mostly bombed, and will probably be totally swept aside by the GS3 and the next round of Nexus devices.

Edit: hopefully HTC gets the message and just kills Sense. Google is lightyears aead at this point.
[HTC Rezound] MajikUF:
This is good news. This means Con can develop on his Rezound and will still have his primary phone for phonecalls and such. Now he has a full time test phone. :)

[HTC Rezound] johnwaynegacy:
We will never have source code for this phone. We may eventually get kernel source. That is a start, but not enough. All the modules are proprietary and closed source (unless it is an opensource third party module). Once we get kernel source, the hackers/devs will still have problems fixing everything.
[HTC Rezound] Divine_Madcat:
Tell that to the Touchpad forum.. ;)

Really though, there are three things (as i understand it) contingent on our making the Rezound AOKP/AOSP..

1) ICS Kernel Source (even if its sense based). It might take a while, but it is certianly possible to engineer an AOSP kernel out of a Sense kernel.

2) ICS RIL. This one is more difficult, since we will never see the Sense RIL source, meaning it all has to be reverse engineered. Given that all claims of an AOSP RIL have been fraudulent so far, this will probably take the longest.

3) ICS source. Ok, already have that, and there are plenty of other S3 devices to model our base off of.

Frankly, i doubt that we will ever see more than the sense roms we have, simply because this phone never caught on with the community. We are damned lucky to have S-Off, but even that won't help enough. We do have some great sense Devs still (both here and otherwise), but i doubt people will keep flocking to this phone.

As it is, i think people should be prepared to live with one or two very solid roms for the time being, or move on to a different phone with 10 million AOSP variations...
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
Enjoy Con! The Nexus is a really cools device and with JB recently coming out for it just makes it even more appealing.

I really do love HTC devices but you have to try other manufactures eventually. I'm personally going to give the GSIII a shot (should be getting it next week! :D) and will see how I like Samsung quality. I just can't base my thoughts about Samsung solely on the Gnex because Google had a lot of say in what went in that phone.

Anyway, I'll catch you on the flipside! Stay up bro.

-Marcus
[HTC Rezound] Cares:
I know damn sure my next phone is going to be AOSP capable. I miss my EVO 4G.
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
Makes sense (no pun intended) if you have the ability to try something new to do so. I'm not really tempted by anything else out there. I haven't liked the AOSP ROMs I have run and I *do* like the Sense front end on Android.

I'm also admittedly (just ventilated on the HTC Elevate site) really frosted about HTC's failure to come out with the "formal" OTA to ICS and even more annoyed that they don't release source to comply with GPL.

If and when the need for Jelly Beans overruns me, I'll poke around and see what's out there, but for now, I really genuinely enjoy my Rezound, especially since I slipped that 64g microsd card in.

Good luck to you Con, whatever you decide. You've got talent and promise, a good combination.

That's laughable.

I left because I was sick of sub par battery life with the stock battery, sick of community infighting and obvious stagnation of development.
