This one is doing the thing where after rebooting to install the new kernel (yes, still S-ON here) it reboots into non-interactive recovery after installing the kernel (as if you plugged it in to charge when it was off) instead of fully rebooting. v2.2 I didn't recall behaving this way. Although, I have a theory, which would be easy to test: I think it only happens when you flash while it's plugged in.
[HTC Rezound] 996:
how is your guys' battery life on this rom? I am on a de-sensed rom right now but I want to switch back to a sense rom due to the choppiness of apex launcher.

sense drains the battery from my experience.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I have actually heard that theory also. Is it dropping you back in hboot with the option to press power?

I am gonna try it now

UPDATE: I just ran an install plugged in to power and it booted to hboot like it should and I hit power and it worked. I am s-off but took the s-on option so that could make a difference.

So, what recovery are you using?
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
Wow, either LTE is amazing or the internet connection in my office (a T1 line) really sucks. In the time I got only about 180megs downloaded through my network, I got the entire ROM downloaded directly onto my phone.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Everybody in your office must be doing the Friday downloads of whatever.:)
[HTC Rezound] punman:
After hitting "Finish" in the Aroma installer, it boots into hboot as expected, the kernel installs correctly, and then when it says "hit power to reboot" I do so and that's where it boots into the non-interactive recovery.

I am using my customized Touch CWR.

When I get a few minutes later I'll re-flash again with it unplugged to see if it does the same thing. I remember specifically v2.2 didn't do this, and possibly v2.1 but I don't remember. Your old Sense 3.6 ROMs all also did it.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I only test with CWM and AmonRa so I can't vouch for TWRP. But now that you mention it I remember hearing a similar problem with TWRP.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Thanks to JDG1 for the donation.

Very much appreciated
[HTC Rezound] punman:
I'm not using TWRP, I'm using CWR, but the touch version.

I just re-flashed with it unplugged, and it rebooted completely after the kernel flash in hboot, and did not drop into the non-interactive recovery mode. I suspect now this is just a recovery issue and not anything to do with your stuff. :)

So, if people report they flash this and it just sits there with a black screen, this is probably the issue.
[HTC Rezound] stuartv:
A T1 is 1.54Mbps.

I have gotten as high as 40Mbps downloads over LTE and usually get 10 - 15Mbps.

So, yeah, the Internet connection in your office really sucks. :D:laugh:

I think it's more of a 4:4 square ratio when widescreen isn't checked. Pictures take fine, but the image preview is squished. If you take a photo and compare it to the preview you can see the long dimension is squished.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Thanks for getting back. Others can benefit from it.

Have tried the charge modified version. That is what I an using
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I guess that all the cameras I have are made for slightly different size screens. I will keep teying.
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
I just flashed 2.2 this morning and then flashed 2.3 over it at lunch, both with TWRP, and had no issues with rebooting back into Hboot or recovery either time.

Are you running the latest version of TWRP?

On another note: I'm afraid that flashovers just aren't gonna be a viable option with Sense 4 ROMs. Camera crashes galore...
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Ahhh could be because of the new cam
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
I flashed 2.2 over 2.1 and my camera works...
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
Yes but that's different than v2.2-2.3

Mine is working now. Guess it's had a chance to settle?
[HTC Rezound] Sheldor1967:
I agree that it seems square, and I always reduce it to that to get better resolution then the full screen...
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
It was more in response to the Sense 4 flashover not working for the camera.

[edit] I did a flash over from 2.2 to 2.3, camera works fine.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I just flashed 2.3 over a nand of 2.1 and the camera worked fine so there must be something else going on. The only setting I change from default for the camera is the save location to sd card.
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
I dunno what happened earlier. Camera is working great now, Nils. This one seems to have just needed some time to settle in.

Awesome job, sir!
[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
Does anyone know how to get Chrome to save downloads to the SD card instead of internal storage in this ROM? most browsers have this in their settings, but not Chrome. If not that is fine, I will just have to move them after I download.
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Nils, I was super happy with 2.2, but 2.3 seems even snappier!

I don't know how you do it, but great work!
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Not sure why Chrome does not provide the capability

Just cleaning up the framework and some critical apks seems to help a lot
[HTC Rezound] douger1957:
For some reason, the Weather Channel widget does not get along with this ROM at all. After about five hours off the charger, the battery's down below 10%...with the widget using 89% of the battery.

I've rolled back to the Sense 3.6 ROM and my battery usage is back to normal...the widget doesn't even show up on the list.

For what it's worth...the GPS symbol remains on the notification bar for quite a while after exiting Facebook...could something not be releasing the GPS fast enough?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Could be because Facebook keeps running after exiting it.
[HTC Rezound] douger1957:
It is one of the running apps...but it is in your Sense 3.6 ROM as well.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
So the question then is which one is wrong HaHa
[HTC Rezound] douger1957:
Facebook really isn't the problem...it's the Weather Channel widget on the Sense 4 ROM. I tossed the Facebook out there to confuse the situation... :p
[HTC Rezound] porkrynd:

GMS?

Is this fully functional with GSM sim cards?
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
Not sure about this ROM cuz I haven't been using it (yet). ViperRez Venom Rom is, though. In its Aroma installer it gives you the choice of whether you wanna install a CDMA version of that ROM or the GSM one. I'm currently using the GSM version cuz I'm out of States. Once I return next week I'm going either to Nils' Sense 4.0 or back to his Sense 3.6 Rom.

However, Nils' ICS 4.0.3 Sense 3.6 IS compatible with GSM. Not fully, though. It was very problematic for me at first and when it started working the sms messages didn't work on GSM network. Another thing was that after every reboot it would go back to CDMA, so I had to use the app called Switchit to switch to WCDMA network. Also, the lock screen always displayed the following message on a full screen

------------

The Sim card is from an unknown source. Emergency calls only.

------------

However, I was able to make and receive phone calls, not text messages, though.

So there are ROMs that are fully compatible with GSM sim cards and those that don't fully support them.

I hope this helps.
[HTC Rezound] rfouche:
Is there a chance of getting the colorized status icons option like in 3.6?
[HTC Rezound] JESUSwazBLACK20:
Thanks for the reply :)

I have tried ViperRez 3.0.1 and its not working with GSM at the moment, Joelz mentioned his next OTA update to 1.1 will fix it but as off now just text and calls work, no DATA at all on GSM, also in sense 3.6 it will always show that ugly lockscreen message with GSM sim cards no matter what, but sense 4.0 does not have it so it is perfect. Could anybody confirm if Nils' ICS 4.0.3 Sense 4.0 functions properly with GSM, Data, SMS, and Calls?
[HTC Rezound] izgil82:
Oh yea, no data either. I forgot to mention it, sorry about that. Alright then.
[HTC Rezound] fazbarulho:
Sorry but Viperz its not fully functional in GSM, no data
[HTC Rezound] pmania:
Gonna give this puppy for a spin. How's the battery life looking?
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
It doesn't dissapoint, I get almost 2 full days on one charge but I'm a light user
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
Try any if the roms by siul. They only work on gsm...
[HTC Rezound] pmania:
Hmm nice. Giving it a try soon.
[HTC Rezound] couchmonkey:
So I did a full wipe and checked firmware patch in Aroma. Now my phone shows 0 as available phone storage, wont let me save screenshots, and doesn't recognize the SD card at all, previously I had to always mount it and now it is greyed out and won't let me even select it.

What did I do?

What can I do?
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
Go back into aroma and only check firmware patch and also kernal if you are s on then flash it

That might fix it
[HTC Rezound] couchmonkey:
I wish, tried to go there in recovery and since all downloads are automatically saved on the internal SD I can't even load up anything on internal, its like if its disappeared.
[HTC Rezound] rwc95:
Just installed and seems to run pretty good. The only issues I have is friendstream doesnt work it just says im not connected to any accounts even though i have my facebook account in, and the other is it doesnt show the number for the messages app on the home or lock screen like when you have texts that you havent read yet.
[HTC Rezound] douger1957:
I download to my PC, then move it over to the SD card...
[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
Neither have I. Quite inconvenient. Oh well...off to 2.3.
[HTC Rezound] couchmonkey:
Restored an old nandroid and then did a clean install. Its:) working but I still have to mount the external SD still after every rebuilt.
[HTC Rezound] jdg1:
Friend stream doesn't work for me either
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Are you installing facebook etc. From Aroma or market? Did you flashover?
[HTC Rezound] Sheldor1967:
I was able to solve the "SD card unmounted after reboot issue" by reflashing the latest ICS Ruu. It was a pain because I had to reinstall the JB_hboot and Among Ra, plus it wiped my internal card, but I don't have to mount the SD card every time I restart!

S-Off Rocks! Who knows what Rom I'm on today!
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Here ya go - In post 3

Will be an option in the next release but for now flash in recovery
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Glad you made the jump. Good move
[HTC Rezound] jdg1:
I flashed over 2.2 but it didn't work on it either. I uninstalled and reinstalled face book from the market but that didn't work either. Also twitter feeds aren't working in friendstream.
[HTC Rezound] rwc95:
I did a clean install on 2.3, I tried it how it comes on the Rom, and deleted and installed from market still no go
[HTC Rezound] Sheldor1967:
I had jumped already, but I screwed up the first hboot install by trying to put ENGhboot on after the ICS Ruu...I think that is what buggered it all up...
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I must of broke something I'll check it out
[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
So I am on 2.3 now and so far the only thing I have noticed is when I tap on weather in the clock, my screen flashes and flickers when I am viewing the weather. Does it do that for anyone else?

EDIT: Apparently it doesn't always happen...I just tried it again and it didn't do it. So maybe it isn't a problem.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
See if this fixes the FriendStream Problem. Will install Facebook, Twitter, and Flikr with working engines

Uninstall any of these that are updated from the market before installing

Flash in recovery
[HTC Rezound] rwc95:
Works great thanks
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Great. That gets you the 3 apps for Friendstream and if you want the standalone apps they can be installed from the market. Best of both worlds.
[HTC Rezound] rfouche:
Wow! You're awesome!
[HTC Rezound] jdg1:
That worked. You are the MAN!
[HTC Rezound] rfarrah:
Love this ROM. This past weekend was my first time using it out at the lake, which is notorious for being difficult to get service. This is the newest ROM I tried and this was, unfortunately, the worst in terms of getting a signal - I could not connect at all to the internet, but did okay with voice and text.

Previous ROM that worked very well was Bored's Sense 3.6 and the old firmware. Wasn't there a new radio included with the new firmware?

In any event, it's important to note I'm NOT blaming the ROM itself or Nils - just trying to report my experience with this radio.
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
FWIW, I always remove Friendstream and Footprints as well as their widgets from the zip before flashing, and I haven't encountered any Facebook issues. That may not solve any problems for folks who actually use those.

Forgive me if this has been answered as I'm sure it HSS but I can't find it.. looking for an opinion on this vs newts one XXX rls 3.2.1 I've been on that for a few weeks was on nils 3.6 previous to that and I love his ROMs just wondering about stability/speed tweaks thanks

PS: I believe if this isn't already on par it will be or better soon fwiw after being on 3.6 business sense for as long as I was that was most stable rom I've used
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
They're different you gotta try em both then decide
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Sorry, mine does not crash at all

[HTC Rezound] NilsP:

[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
Newt's has a little more going on in the tweaks area. His is based on the Incredible 4G, if I'm not mistaken. It has Features like a mofo, but can be a little glitchy. I actually preferred Zone's themed version of Newt's Rom.

Nils' 4.0 Rom is classic Nils: Stable, mildly themed, fast, beautiful keyboard. I miss the Quick Settings in the notification bar, but I'm hoping we'll see it in the next update.
[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
Maybe I'm confused, but the Quick settings are there. When you pull down the notification area, just tap on the upper left where it says Verizon Wireless. It switches over to the Quick settings where you can control all sorts of stuff. Can't Hide/Reorder though like on the 3.6 ROM, but who knows what the future holds.
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
Oh there it is! Thank you!
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Yeah, Jan hid this one for some reason. I am working on the traditional tabs for the future
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
Very cool.

I DL'd the zip somebody posted in Joel's Viper thread that gave me S-Voice. It works pretty well with your Rom. Only issue is it FC's when you tell it to play music. But everything else seems to work.

Have you had any time to play with it?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Not yet but it is on my list of ToDo's
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
I suppose it's like flavors of ice cream, but I've run XxX and Nils' and prefer Nils' for overall look and feel.

[HTC Rezound] couchmonkey:
So Nils, this might be my car being screwy or Bluetooth. But when connected to the car, phone calls go throught the phone only and not the car. Can't figure it out. When I turn off Bluetooth on the phone, it doesn't disconnect from the car either. It still shows as connected. Did a full wipe as well. Other than that smooth sailing.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
What kind of car stereo and car. Will see if it is a profile issue.
[HTC Rezound] ae1990:
Flashed this morning so far so good. Missing quick settings but just using not if action toggle app from market also noticed that the native screen shot is present how ever it seems HTC mysketcher app is not working. (Power+home). I like the camera a lot it seems to be the best for our phones and once it FIFA the screen correctly it will be the best over all. And Nova runs the smoothest on this ROM compared to many others I've tried. Thanks nils definately not disappointed with this. Maybe add option in tweaks for transerant launch bar and custom task bar just suggestions tho. I'm very pleased thank again. Pa I'm ha I g one minor bug where my HTC gallery only shows a few of my albums but quickpic shows everything I want. Possibly only showing external SD photos
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Quck setting is in pulldown. Just press on the logo bar after pulldown

Screen shot is in the advanced power meny. Just press and hold until it comes up.

Move your pictures to the SD Card and you should be good to go.

There are additional things you may be missing so reread posts 1-3
[HTC Rezound] ae1990:
Sneaky quick setting menu!! I'm digging it it cleans up the tabs at the bottom.

Will move photos

Stock volume down plus power works for screen shot so no worries!

Loving having the colorized icons on sense 4 and the stability so far is very good that ks for the reply!
[HTC Rezound] Jacrushar:
Sweet, you fixed it. Great job man.
[HTC Rezound] gottahavit:
Check the settings on the pair I've had to manually toggle phone/media in there a couple times
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
+1 to that. Have always had occasional issues with connection/disconnection, not specific to this ROM or even this phone (or car, for that matter). Usually, most times, just turning on BT will get it to pair, but sometimes the car powers up thinking it's already paired; and sometimes I have to go into BT settings and press the connection, or even toggle BT on and off.

Is kindle fixed .n 2.4?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:

[HTC Rezound] couchmonkey:
Hey Nils, maybe I am lost but can't find Visual Voice Mail anywhere.

Is there an apk for it?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
In the installer
[HTC Rezound] paulhoop:
it's in the aroma installer, not sure what to do if you missed installing it then. Are you going up to 2.4? do it then.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Can actually run the installer and just uncheck everything else including the rom and kernel
[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
He can always just run the installer again without wiping and make sure the Visual Voice Mail option is checked this time and re-flash.

EDIT: ninja-d by Nils
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
Hi Nils. Hey I noticed that I can't stop a download via the notification bar once it's started. I click the little 'down' arrow with the line under it, and it just goes back to whatever I was doing before I pulled the notification bar down.

Anybody else experiencing this?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I think if you do a pulldown and tap on it in notifications you can
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
Thanks fro the update Nil's, DL'ing now

I just noticed that jbeitel has put together "Real Icon Theme v2.4 for nils S4 v2.4"

It looks super sweet, Im going to flash that and see how it goes.
[HTC Rezound] rfarrah:
Just a shout out to HGoldner for the recommendation/notes below. (This is from Nilsp Sense 3.6 ROM).

OK, here's the scoop. Good practice is to do a full Nandroid before flashing a new ROM (or any other major change to your setup). Using Amon Ra, as opposed to our ancient days of ClockworkMod on the Incredible, you can restore individual partitions, such as ONLY \data.

So, if Nils says it's okay ('cause he generally keeps track of how much mucking around he's done version to version), I do a full factory reset/wipe. Wipe cache, data, system, boot, dalvik again anyway, then flash the ROM. Before rebooting into the ROM, while still in recovery, I restore ONLY the \data partition, and the device typically boots up as if nothing has ever happened --- except it's running the new ROM.

That doesn't work if there are "missing apps" for instance, such as what was going on back around 5.1-5.3 (remember those good old days so very long ago? ) The missing apps will stay missing.

It means I don't have to do a flashover, but I also don't have to do a complete rebuild of my system, reinstalling apps, restoring wifi points, bluetooth pairings, home screens and all that stuff we love to do more than once a day or two......not.

It's probably NOT the way to go between major updates of ROMs. Say, should Nils ever decide that his Sense 4.0 ROM is good to go, it's probably not advisable to restore the 5.x data partition over what will be 6.x or 7.x or whatever. And it's almost definitely NOT the way to go when you're changing ROMs altogether --- but that's just an educated guess on my part.

I finally had an opportunity (and the memory) to give this a shot when I went from 2.2 to 2.4. Seems to have worked very well. Thanks again!!
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
Flashed 2.4 over 2.3 and everything is well
