[HTC Rezound] armchairbear:
I've tried a bunch of different roms, and Scott's Cleanrom DE 1.4 has been the fastest and smoothest. It hasn't been updated since May, but it works so well, it doesn't really need an update.

It's fast, stays cooler, and give better battery life.

I've tried newer roms since, but I keep going back to it.

---------- Post added at 05:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:48 AM ----------

It's weird, I don't get why people would want to switch from the Rezound to Gnex. Rezound has better hardware, and hardware is something you can't change. Sure, Rezound dev support isn't as abundant as the Gnex, but there are some good roms for it. Software can only get you so far.
[HTC Rezound] loki993:
I say not even a little bit

Basically what I was going to say.

The Gnex has good but not groundbreaking specs, it has a 2 year old GPU, Its big and frumpy looking, it has bad battery life, has a bad radio and an expensive price tag.

I love the Rezoud, yeah I would like the actually be able to see the screen in the sun. I would also like the be able to get a full day out of the battery. I think that should be the primary concern with development.

Battery life seems to be the one universal thing people complain about yet it never gets fully addressed.
[HTC Rezound] tigerton:
Where I work I can get lte sometimes in the building with my Rezound, and Thunderbolt, while my coworker with a Galaxy Nexus can never get lte inside the building. So, I am not sure about the signal strength showing difference as i can sometimes get 4G while they can't in the same spot.
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
How are you people wiping your batteries then?

With the same process on both Rezound and GNex, Rezound got embarrassed.

I couldn't get over 2 hours screen on with every battery save trick in the book, these same tricks, I'll have 45% with the Nexus.

Development makes all the difference since Sense is a suck of life.

Rezound hardware is equal at best with GNex.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
I get the exact same battery life on the nexus as the rezound. 2 to 3 hours screen on time and usually around 14 hours...literally its identical for both phones lol its insane. You'd think the nexus would be better since it has an 1800mah instead of 1620 and running stock android, but they're identical. I don't really care because that s some good ass battery life
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
Dude if rezound and galaxy nexus hardware was at least even, no one would buy the rezound. The Rezound trumps the nexus in just about every category.

You are starting to act like a troll.
[HTC Rezound] EtherBoo:
They just did release a new Nexus, the Nexus 7. If you're referring to a new Nexus phone, there are rumors, but that's it. Considering the Nexus S is still being supported, I wouldn't worry and just buy the G-Nex. Depending on SIII development, I'll probably be doing the same in about a month.

Can you explain this a little more? What do you mean, does not work? Every time I've called and tried to do something similar they usually outright deny me.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
Lol right. I have a hard time even partially believing some of his post. It's more comical than anything
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
lol then how do you explain all the AOSP-loving crybabies here who bought rezounds? haven't you been here the past 8 months? lol everywhere there's people complaining about how they bought the rezound hoping for AOSP because it had better hardware than the nexus.
[HTC Rezound] blestsol:
He is a troll

Hey you! Stop with all that logic. We don't like your kind round here. Making sense and all that.

[HTC Rezound] dogswind:
That's been my experience as well. I'll be clinging to my unlimited data for now though.
[HTC Rezound] SirSigma:
I have zero experience with a Nexus, but with my current Rezound setup on the stock battery, I can get at least a little over 24 hours with mild use.
[HTC Rezound] funnyangrykid:
Yeah. I agree. Tip: when you call, just give em the basics. They dont need detail. And don't be demanding.

if I've helped in any way, don't be shy of that thanks button : )
[HTC Rezound] zone23:
You know I would love to try that, if only they had another phone I wanted :crying: were is the HTC One X when you need it??
[HTC Rezound] dustintheweb:
Can you define "basics"?
[HTC Rezound] Watercycle:
comes a certain point (about now) that improvement will be relative.

AKA only customization will be the issue

if you can upgrade for free to something better, that's a good reason to upgrade

if you need battery life and a phone doubles it, that's a reason to pay

i've seen plenty of GS3 and Gnex videos to understand it's like saying a

12gb

2gb GDDR5

high end I7 processor

performs better than

6gb

1gb GDDR5

midrate AMD quad or higher

(unless you of course have triple monitor and host a HUGE server)

but the difference is, our applications almost never demand more than a basic 1.0ghz dual core and 1gb of ram. No need to be overly materialistic =)
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
I don't think I would buy the galaxy nexus until I see if there is a new nexus brewing. Maybe if it was cheap on CL. The problem with it is that hardware when released wasn't top end. I am really excited for the s4 more for power management then performance.
[HTC Rezound] Squirrel1620:
Just stick through it till the htc one x gets some good development going.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] mj23kb08:
The video quality from both Youtube and Netflix is GARBAGE after the ICS update. I've read similar complaints by other users in a few different forums. Anyway, I just want Gingerbread back. Is it possible to SBF back to it?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] FcHsChilD:
Nope
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mj23kb08:
Ugh! Really? Is it because of the locked bootloader?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] FcHsChilD:
Yep
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mj23kb08:
Wow, that's garbage. Motorola has screwed us all. Have any of you guys noticed the video fuzziness and/or know of a fix?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bwheelies:
Make sure you have HQ video playback enabled and use a soft cloth and screen safe cleaner.

SHVR MAXX
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mj23kb08:
I've had a screen protector since day 1 and I already checked to make sure that HQ was on with my Youtube app. There's not an option to switch between SD and HD on Netflix, it's just supposed to automatically be on HD when you're connected to a 4G network.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bwheelies:
Probably the screen protector. I had one a long time ago and hated it's visual degradation. Never used one since but I am not a klutz.

SHVR MAXX
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Tarheel487:
I'm not that big on watching videos on the phone as I feel it's just too small, so I usually just go HDMI out, but the movies I have up here are fine, and also I tested a few out on Youtube and they seem to be very good quality with no fuzziness or anything. I can't comment on Netflix, because I don't have it, but my Youtube app works fine.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mj23kb08:
I'm 100% positive it's NOT the screen protector. #1-I've ALWAYS had a screen protector on this phone and the video playback was AMAZING on Gingerbread before I upgraded this software to ICS. #2-I've been seeing other people with similar video playback complaints in another forum. See this link: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...scussion/215153-no-hd-video-playback-ics.html
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iguanad:
My video playback is fine.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] marcosed2012:
sorry return to 236 is not possible.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] mj23kb08:
So it looks just as crisp and clear as it did on GB? My videoes still play...they just don't look nearly as crisp and crystal clear as they did before.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iguanad:
Mine are perfect.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Rooted Dinc:
This. The high quality on mobile box is NOT checked by default. I had to re-check it. My videos are as crisp as ever.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sullytrny:
those apps self adjust to the stream quality and the available ram. The first thing I do after a fresh install and root is to put file explorer in and double all the factory cache settings. the only time my fvids are fuzzy is on the initial connection or in weak signal areas

:cool:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] blisslove:
Have you tried this modified YouTube app?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1529715

Much better than stock app. ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sRDennyCrane:
OP, just curious- were you one of the people screaming about ICS not being released early enough?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] quarky42:
My Netflix video is just as crisp on ICS as it was on Gingerbread on both 4G and Cable based ISP / wifi.

I've never used the default Youtube App. I've always used TubeMate:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006AZZPCM/

or

http://m.tubemate.net/

It lets me choose exactly which quality I want to watch, download, or even strip off the video and keep the mp3. :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] lashton:
not really when ICS is released and stable why would you weant to go back to GB, if you flash a leak ICS you were warned you would have been aware of no downgrade option yet, just wait till ICS bootloader gets unlocked, this may be i guess a couple of weeks after ICS is officially out
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MyEntityRemains:
What in the hell is that comment based on?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] lashton:
Um if you read my post you will see that its based on fact, google dont want people going back to GB so thats a fact, and they were warned about NO downgrade, thats a fact, you really dont read do you!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Mataraty:
I guess he meant this part.

I also wonder where you got that from.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sRDennyCrane:
I don't see the bootloader being unlocked in any foreseeable near future.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Phyter:
No body seem to have your video problem, Will you try go to SETTINGS-Developer Options- and check [Force GPU Rendering, use 2d HW Acceleration] ?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Torres77an:
So can't you just flash your phone back to GB I could do that on my arc but it sounds like there is no flashtool for the Razr and well I have ICS on my arc and the video is fine so I should hope it will be the same on my Razr once I get the official upgrade ...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Mataraty:
There is, but there is also a lock which makes that we cannot set another kernel that easely.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] FrAsErTaG:
I have untested ideas for going back to gb. I can share via pm, also depends if you can get insurance for a brick
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mr_vader:
I use Netflix, you have to logon on to the Netflix web site to enable HD streaming.. Only thing is it is about 1 gig per movie.

Hope you have unlimited data.. I do and it looks great on mine.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chrisjm00:
From what I understand, the reason for not being able to go back to GB is due to the locked bootloader. We can't downgrade the kernel to allow GB to boot, that means once your kernel is updated to the ICS kernel, you are stuck until someone figures out a way to crack the bootloader open. I highly doubt it is from some twisted Google idea of ridding every phone of GB. I read these forums sometimes and it seems like people take their

opinion

and push them on people as if they are stone cold fact.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Seihaku:
Actually I always had a minor issue with skipping in Netflix on Gingerbread, ICS fixed that and the image quality is the same. Shrug.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Torres77an:
Hmm a lock eh ? Does that have to do with the bootloader how does that lock work ?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Mataraty:
Are you mocking me right now? And yes the locked bootloader is the problem at this moment as far I know.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] xXxTehxXx:
You're stuck on ICS

If we manage to unlock the bootloader

If we manage to downgrade the kernel

If we find a way to downgrade to GB firmware-wise

If we found a way to stop the upgrade notification every 10 minutes

This seems like a hell of a lot of trouble so your videos look better. GB had 6 versions, each of which included more and more bug fixes. Give ICS some time so they can flatten out the bugs
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mj23kb08:
I want to root my device though. If I understand correctly, rooting your device prevents you from receiving updates. I hate the idea of "waiting around" for an update to come out that may or may NOT fix this bug and not be able to enjoy a rooted device while I wait. I am correct about that, right? I won't receive any ICS updates if I root? Even if I stay on the stock ROM?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stupidchicken03:
1GB for a movie isnt that bad.. especially for HD
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Torres77an:
No sorry I guess it was a stupid question I Assumed it had to do with the bootloader but thought maybe it had something to do with some thing ells added along the boot process like just simply a line of code added by Motorola I'm just starting now a read on how the Android system works so hopefully soon I won't have more dumb questions to annoy any one with .
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Torres77an:
I don't think just Rooting alone stops one from being able to update its what you do after you root that can stop it from updating so if you do root be careful when handling system apps and don't flash any custom roms
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Barkleyfan:
Root won't stop an upgrade, but custom recovery will. Which isn't an issue, since any upgrade will be leaked well in advance.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chaitanyarising:
Videos are fine with no change in their quality.. Screen Protector is not an issue either.. :D

I'm at an absolute loss right now. I've rooted the EVO 3D that I received a few days ago from Sprint, since my old one couldn't be fixed by the technicians, and everything I try (BusyBox, Clockwork, ControlBear) says my phone is not rooted. It claims that it is 'Unlocked' and I followed the instructions to an absolute 'T' but it seems as if HTC recently restricted the crap out of the phone at some point. I've been dealing with this issue for a few days, E-Mailing developers, trying different tricks, and nothing is working. I'm quite irritated with the whole situation. I'm hoping someone here can help me out. I've tried searching Google, this forum, and other forums but can't find any answers.

[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
I'm assuming your bootloader is unlocked....and I think you are trying to flash 4ext recovery using the 4ext app which requires your phone to be rooted i.e. you should have superuser app and binary in your system and not from google play. You can still flash 4ext recovery but by the indirect way i.e using pc . so better flash the twrp recovery as the guide says first ,then flash the su2.3.6.3 zip file from your twrp recovery as the guide says , which will root your phone....then you can use the 4ext app to flash 4ext recovery ........

if you would have purchased the evo lte, you would not have been successful in rooting it either .......follow the guide thoroughly and customize your android,recovery and other stuff later
