Wifi issue may have been related to Funky Kernel 1.8. I was in smartass setting and when I switched to intellidemand. It seemed to fix it at first then it started acting up. First, it was saying reload page, then it started saying them about proxy is wrong. So I did a cache wipe. Working now, but will report back later. (However, I was on stock kernel when it first started happening, just got worse with FK1.8). LED notification for texts still is not working, but I really don't care about that.

Here's some info where you can learn about smart sync and enough that you can google it if you want

[HTC Rezound] Nappyloxs:
Tried smartsync disabler, but seeing as it is daytime where I live that should not be it. Also tried wifi fixer. No luck. I get error 102 on chrome. Did some research and it is a problem on JB. I think I will just go back to 3.6. Everytime I flash 4.0 my phone acts up. On 3.6 it is stable with no issues.
[HTC Rezound] Mechadan:
When I try to set the clock color in tweaks or set the clock location, nothing happens. Does this feature in the tweaks not work?

Check post 2 for this and other known issues
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:
Nils P I hope I didn't add unwanted confusion to your thread, sorry if I over complicated things when I opened my big mouth.

Thanks as always for your work man, IMO a big strong point is the way you blend custom styling with a high end classy luxury type design in your theming. Just like a really classy paint theme on a custom bike now that I think about it.
[HTC Rezound] Mechadan:
Argh. Sorry. I promise I have read the known issues about 5 times. I just have a poor memory, apparently.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
You are welcome here at all times.

Thanks for your help and support
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
No problem
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Hey Nils, any idea why Gallery is no longer showing any pictures?

I've rebooted, cleared cache, wiped data, installed several media rescanner apps, etc.

It's not a super big deal I guess, but kind of annoying. :/

[Edit] Never mind. User error! :P
[HTC Rezound] Nappyloxs:
Found out my wifi / internet issues were related to adblock plus. May now flash back to 4.0.

Possible Weather Force Close with sound fix

All,

Based on the last two ROMS i tested this fix on, I am posting a possible fix as per requested by NilsP in his sense 3.6 thread

This is a fix in the resources.apk file.

IT IS UNTESTED on this ROM, but as stated above worked for two other ROMS

Once someone confirms the fix i will provide a explanation as to what was done so i have 3 instances of confirmation this is right.

this is for V2.9

[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
I flashed it in recovery and my phone now won't get past the little waving android boot screen. Sat there for 25 minutes. I'm going to reflash the rom so I can use my phone again.
[HTC Rezound] carm01:
my apologies i had to pull the link since it was wrong the right link is posted now

---------- Post added at 12:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:01 PM ----------

should have nandroid lol
[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
I have a nandroid. It is just faster to flash over the system partition for me. I will try the new file.

EDIT: It booted this time. No more weather sound force closes!
[HTC Rezound] garnet&gold:
Same as redbean, works great!
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Confirmed by me also to be working

Thanks very much

Weather Force Close with Sound resolved

I tested it too, im just not a fan of how sense 4 runs on my device....

Anyway for those who want to know what i did to resolve this issue is it has something to do with compressing the .wav files located in the following location in the com.htc.resources.apk:

\res\raw

Apparently when com.htc.resources.apk is modified and repacked after modification, it compresses those .wav files in the process. It does not turn them in to mp3 files, 7-zip or winrar by default will use normal compression.

What i did is:

1) i grabbed the 9 weather .wav files from a ruu and extracted them from the com.htc.resources.apk. close that winrar session to avoid confusion

2) I Opened com.htc.resources.apk from the current ROM and opened in winrar

3) I delete the .wav weather files ( 9 of them ) in the location \res\raw

4) Drag all 9 of the weather .wav files that i pulled from the ruu back into the com.htc.resources.apk in the same location \res\raw ( within winrar )

5) Winrar will then prompt you to add them to the archive, and it will show "normal" compression, change that to "store".

6) the apk will repack without compressing the .wav files.

Sounds simple and found another thread on this but that thread wanted me to replace the whole raw folder, and upon research, i found that you only need to do the .wav files because sometimes the other files in there are modified by the dev as well.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Damn. I never thought of that. Answer why I always screw it up.

Thanks

[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Was there more to the message?

Try on WiFi.
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
finally got it. had to reinstall 2.9 first i guess
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
I like the new all apps icon, well done Nil's

everything seems good, lets see if we squeeze some more battery out of your tweaks
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Shouldn't have but great to hear it worked fine
[HTC Rezound] dm5530:
Hi, Nils.

I had been running your 3.6 version and think my external storage card might have gotten a bit corrupted.

Thought I'd try this Sense 4.0 version while I'm trying to rebuild my phone. Already had your 2.9 d'led but I presume you'll post the link to 2.10 on the first page shortly; am I right?

Looking fwd to trying it.

Thanks.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
May not be today so just flash 2.9 and when it prompts for the update take it.
[HTC Rezound] v941726:
Why. Used the ota.

---------- Post added at 02:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:45 PM ----------

Where is that?
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
Its the center icon on your launcher bar at the bottom of your screen, when pressed it takes you to all your apps. Its a small change but I like it
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Just saying you should not have had to reload 2.9
[HTC Rezound] red rage:
is there a "real icon theme" for this rom ?
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
Some nice icons in this thread, I use a lot of them with zero issues

I found that the OTA indicated an update was available, but it failed to download. Rebooted the phone and now downloading! :) No need to reload ROM.
[HTC Rezound] dm5530:
Been almost five months since I rooted and installed your Sense 3.6 ICS ROM. Had to clear a few cobwebs to remember what to do to update to the latest RUU (4.0) and then to prep recovery and install your Sense 4.0 ver 2.9.

Everything went rather smoothly. Was able to run the OTA updater and got 2.10 before I spent too much time re-installing my apps. (Thankful for TiB.)

Don't know yet whether my concern re memory card and storage space is taken care of; for now, I have faith that it's behind me.

Want to thank you again for your support and contribution to the Rez community. I'm sure there are many more, but I can only speak for myself.

So thank you Nils and hope you have a great week.
[HTC Rezound] ezflip:
Got the update and love it! One thing though, Ive been running AmonRa and after having to manually install the last update, decided to switch to TWRP. Got the notification for this update and still had to manually install it in recovery. I thought this was supposed to be automatic with TWRP? I am s-off if it matters. It gave the same error as before with AmonRa and I had to navigate to where it downloaded the file and choose it to install.
[HTC Rezound] snowride20:
Nils, I have been dying to flash something that was worth my time and I knew everything would work. Can't wait to update tomorrow since the updater doesn't seem to like me unless I'm on WiFi. Thank you for continuing to support our phone.
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
Nils,

I just wanted to say thank you for your continuing support of the Sense-based Rezound community.

I'm gonna give this new release a try tomorrow.

[HTC Rezound] Flandro:
The tweaks don't seem to be working. Specifically the clock and battery tweaks.
[HTC Rezound] abrego47:
it depends on which style you choose, i forgot which one exactly but someone i think knows how they go, it could be in this thread also. try a reflash and choose color with no tabs and it should work. it's been a lil bit since i was on nils
[HTC Rezound] sazrikudo:
Hei NeilsP

I hope Nils ROM sense 4 will use sense 4.1 :) because they're very smooth more than sense 4.

Let me know how it goes

My pleasure. Enjoy

Try tabless and see but I am pretty sure battery is a known issue

Just to let you know, I tried color with no tabs and both the clock and battery coloring work great. Thanks for the good guess!
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Sorry. Never got those options working right with tabbed.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Full version 2.10 added to post 1 for new users or full fresh flash

Not needed if you took the OTA for 2.10 update
[HTC Rezound] Flandro:
Maybe in 2.11? I'll be back when it's working. Thanks.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Wow. That is holding you off frm using this ROM? Just use the untabbed version.
[HTC Rezound] Mechadan:
Talk about very specific taste, haha.
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
Thats what I do and everything works great, Give it a taste, i think you'll like it

Anyone else having problems with Chrome? Scrolling is very jumpy and I get 'digital snow' everytime I hit the menu soft button
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
I haven't tried Chrome, I use Dolphin Browser, Maybe I'll DL it and try it
[HTC Rezound] Jacrushar:
I believe that happens on Chrome with a lot of different ROMs. I just live with it.
[HTC Rezound] jtwebfusion:
Do you have "force 2d gpu rendering" in dev options enabled?
[HTC Rezound] Jacrushar:
Would that help something?
[HTC Rezound] tjamscad:
Nils I love 2.10 everything is great. The blue accents are an excellent touch. Can the keyboard or dial pad have the blue accents like some of the Roma you dud for the Dinc?
[HTC Rezound] Putts:
I've had that issue on every Sense 4.0+ ROM I've tried on the Rezound. No idea why that happens, but Chrome works fine in Sense 3.6.
[HTC Rezound] bkhorn:
Can we use Funky Kernel v1.9 ?
[HTC Rezound] trumpet444:
Now that I think about it, chrome HAS sucked on Sense roms, I've been on an aosp rom for the past month so i forgot about that. I've missed the 99% bug free experience I get with Sense.

I did think to toggle forced GPU rendering, no change though. I can live with it, and at least I have the Sense camera back, and that alone is worth switching back to Sense for
[HTC Rezound] demmo86rt:
Yes, very much, and typing anything in Chrome is a real *****.

Sometimes you have to be smarter than your smartphone.
[HTC Rezound] Mechadan:
I have actually only had problems with Chrome on AOSP ROMs, not on Sense ones.

One thing I have noticed with this current version is my battery seems to be draining extremely fast.

Trying to get a battery stats app loaded up to see what's going on, but did this version update the kernel or anything from 2.9? I assume it didn't, but if it did, I may need to do a full wipe and install just to get the kernel to install since I'm S-On.

For reference, writing this post cost me 2% of battery life.

I have found that Dolphin Browser gives me the best user experiance
[HTC Rezound] Sheldor1967:
You can try any kernel you want, but Nils can only support his own, so you are on your own. Nandroid and experiment seems to be the way to go...
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
I've been a fan of Nils' ROMs since the Incredible days. I've had his ROMs on this phone longer than all other Devs' combined.

I put this ROM on my phone yesterday, saying to myself, "Self, enjoy this cuz it's probably the last ROM you're gonna flash on the Rezzy before you get your DNA." I had no idea just how real that thought might be.

This morning I fired up my screen, and whaddaya know... two hairline screen cracks that I didn't even know were there yesterday have started to spread like a spider web.

My lady, with whom I share household expenses, told me she was gonna get me the DNA for Xmas, and that I should just go ahead and get it. I think I'm gonna take her up on that offer after work today.

So, I thought I'd ask the master if he was planning to make the jump to the DNA any time soon?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Sorry to hear that. I dread the day it happens to me.

I have been looking at the DNA with serious thoughts. However I don't have an upgrade untl July and not enough in my phone kitty for full price. Maybe after the holiday bills are paid.

Keep us posted....
[HTC Rezound] Mechadan:
Man, that DNA looks amazing. I made the mistake of looking at it in the store and now crave it. I am in the same upgrade situation as Nils, so no DNA for me unless I wait until resale value drops and get one off contract.
[HTC Rezound] Sheldor1967:
I'd love to hear how it goes for you as well. Decided that I could live with less room because I have 30 gigs on Dropbox. But, the permanently mounted battery is a worry. I have an extended batt on my Rezzy, and I don't know if the one on the DNA will be enough (Especially if I am using the cloud more). I keep reading good things about the battery life...Look forward to reading your report...:)

Just exactly what I have done.

Last night, my screen went blank when I tried to pinch-zoom my pictures. When I Pinched to restore the pic to normal, the screen came back on. Weird...

I ran the triplets (Wipe Cache, Dalvik Cache, Fix Permissions), and the problem went away.

I've noticed that I have to tell the SD card to mount every time I boot up. Anybody else get this?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Hmmm, never had either. Something must have gotten bit by something else.
[HTC Rezound] Sheldor1967:
I have had both occur on different Sense 4 Roms, this one and XxX. But the pinch zoom problem is intermittent. The SD card issue happens only with certain flashes. If I flash a new Sense 4 and it happens, it seems I will have that problem until I flash a different Rom. I think some have suggested it is an issue with Amon Ra, but I have no evidence of that.

Business Sense Tweaks

Hello, my settings for Business Sense tweaks are not showing. I've tried to change the battery settings to the MIUI bar and nothing happens. The settings stick if I exit he app and reboot the phone. Any ideas?
[HTC Rezound] merashallan:
Which kernel are you using? Just curious.
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
When you flashed did you pick the tabbed QS? If you did, Tweaks donts work with tabbed settings, you need to pick no tabbed for tweaks to work.

you can just reflash, uncheck everything but no tab, that way only that will flash and you wont loose any data or settings, Clear cache and d cache first
[HTC Rezound] takef0cusin:
Thank you!! That worked.
[HTC Rezound] Hitch_Itch:
Glad to help ;)
[HTC Rezound] demmo86rt:
So, I can't for the life of me find any of the Sense widgets. They show up under manage apps and in TiBu but not under add to homescreen. The default widgets were on the homescreens but I can't add any new ones, even on a totally blank screen. Am I missing something, or just doing something wrong?

Sometimes you have to be smarter than your smartphone.
[Xperia Arc General] Thanak:
First of all you need to have all thease stuffs:

1. unlocked bootloader

2. Rooted

First, flash the lastiest cm7 rom and kernel (not cm9)

Then, install chainfire3d and it plugin.

Go to settings - cm setting - performance - CPU setting - available governors - set it to ondemand, go to min cpu frequency - set it to 122, Max to 1401 - check set on boot

Open chainfire3d - go to default opengl settings - check reduce texture quality, - go to use plugins - set it to nvidia. Done!

Enjoy your massive improvement of gaming performance on xperia arc/arc S :)

Tested games:

-asphalt 6

-riptied gp

-Shadow gun

-cs protable

Edited: if you want a little bit faster overclock to 1.6 ghz

Don't for get to hit thank if i help you!

Why are you on xda developers? :confused:

Things like overclocking and modding are the whole point of this site.

While you might not want to unlock your bootloader and other things which "might" brick your phone, it is also unlikely you will if you follow the developers guides properly.

This guide here has nothing unusual that people aren't doing to their phones already.

Of course it can, if you don't use it wisely.

Not only that you can kill your CPU, but can destroy or shorten life of some parts around CPU, like "glue" or rubber part around screen.

Why don't you try to play game like "Samurai ii Vengeance THD" with qualcom driver. It will never work if you don't use Chainfire to change your Open GL Driver.
[Xperia Arc General] yo-meister:
i have an arc overclocked to 1.4, had it like that for quite a few months now and everything is fine

just an increased risk of damage

in my opinion though, the most effective way to achieve better gaming performance is simply to reboot your phone before playing a heavy game

never fails!
[Xperia Arc General] jhaamu:
nice
[Xperia Arc General] bfbones:
It can.

If you go higher than 1.4 GHZ on Lt15 or higher than 2 GHZ on LT18 you can brick your device.

If the CPU get's hotter the calculations of the CPU are often wrong and the error rate is higher. This slow's down your device, so Overclocking to high is a bad effect.

You have to search what's the best option for you device, not every CPU's are same.

Yeah, I'm on stock GB with Gin2ICS theme, v6 supercharger and KAK + additional build.prop tweaks, bloatware removed as far as it goes (TB says I have 150 user and system apps), locked bootloader.

And now that you've ported NXT Lockscreen Gingerbread is the way to go. Nothing missing from ICS for me, except ICS Browser I like so much :) (I'm using Boat Browser with ICS theme, though... but stock browsers are much better IMO :/ atleast UI)

I could probably improve this more with custom kernel but I'm not sure there are good, bugless custom kernels for GB. And I might look what is added in Jellybread ROM, maybe something useful for smoothness :).
[Xperia Arc General] Patambiz:
The Chainfire 3d Just enable you to switch driver to play different kind of games. Street Fighter IV works with Qualcom, some are with Nvidia driver works its just making you have libs to choose from. It also able you to reduce texture quality for better gaming performance but the Texture is really gruesome. I used chainfire to play Plants Vs Zombies, Nova etc. If you dont use this the game will FC.
[Xperia Arc General] martirio3000:
ICS gaming performance is Way better than Gingerbread.

But not a lot of games work correctly on ics because of touchscreen issues and Force closes.

I had tried nova3 Gingerbread VS Ice-cream Sandwich and ICS was smooth with all effects.

Just to let you know ICS has way better drivers for the gpu.

(and also other than cpu overclock you can overclock GPU but i don't recommend both. my recommend is to reduce CPU freq to save battery and use chainfire too reduce graphics quality to reduce lag)

Just a question:

Is it the same if i use GPU to the MAX!(erm.. playing with 30fps)

And if i play a game with 60fps-limited by Vsync-

What i mean with simple words is.

WILL STRESSING MY GPU (no overclock) CONSUME MORE BATTERY?
