Or you can just extract the boot.img and flash it through fastboot. Much easier :b.

[HTC Rezound] mtotho:
Not to be really nooby, but I just use that All-In-One kit from the development section. I just extract the boot.img and put it in the "Kernel" folder, then select the command in the program "Flash custom kernel" and it does it. Of course I am familiar with ADB and related commands, but I simply find this quicker :)
[HTC Rezound] apophis9283:
Chad any idea why it bricks if your s-off. Im so tempted to install that rom and boot.img you linked me to while s-off.
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
S-off allows the whole device to be open. S-on protects the radios , hboot, etc.
[HTC Rezound] apophis9283:
I know i did the beta test yesterday
[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
I'm pretty sure a partition, possibly the hboot partition, that shouldn't be mounted is getting mounted and somehow getting corrupted in the process.
[HTC Rezound] apophis9283:
Hmm interesting. Thank you sir
[HTC Rezound] jclendineng:
Chad can you link to a build? Or can I compile and run what's in github atm? Thanks
[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
You can build and run what's in github. I don't want to post any builds until the brick issue is solved.
[HTC Rezound] live2die:
chad， was camera fixed when you got roaming indicator fixed？
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
I don't think so; camera is hard to fix without kernel source.

Sent from my NeoMax Rezound
[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
No. I'm personally not really focusing on things that can be much more easily fixed with the ICS kernel source. Not that its not possible to fix them, but its a lot of work that pretty much will get thrown out a week after its done.
[HTC Rezound] apophis9283:
I know nobody is going to like to hear this but HTC said that normal kernel source code release is anywhere from 90 to 120 days after the update. Just thought id pass that along.
[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
I know. Everyone has been pressuring them to comply and release it when they're supposed to, which is when they start distributing the binary. So I'm hoping they will step up and release it sooner.
[HTC Rezound] stepdragon:
I've seen that time period multiple times. However I don't know the exact date the update was released. Could someone in the know draw out some calendar dates on when those 90 and 120 day marks are? that would be sweet.

also @chad Great fix, running CM9 as a daily. Indicators, and SD both working fine on GB Firmware with ICS patch. Only missing the camera, which is fine w/me coz I don't use it. Thanks Man
[HTC Rezound] Antoine.WG:
The update was released around August 3, which would put the source release some time in November.
[HTC Rezound] hazardc:
Once we have full working aosp on jelly bean with global, my rezound will finally be complete. I have really just fooled myself into believing I actually like sense. Sucks that it will probably be a year from when I bought the phone until development is to the point of stability. However, I'm grateful for those who haven't given up.
[HTC Rezound] haliwa04:
Ugh, that sucks major dog taint. If someone really wanted to, and had time for all the legwork, could HTC/Verizon/ google face legal actions? Just hypothetically speaking.
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
Well it isn't Google's problem, so only HTC and possibly Verizon.

But more likely HTC.

[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
You never know how long it'll take. The inc4g source was posted today and its only been out a month. Not that it matters though, since its still locked. I'm pretty sure they don't really have any rational release schedule and they just release when they feel like it.

Although, at this point it'll pretty much just help with the camera. CM9 is pretty much fully functional except for cam right now. Someone could always take up back porting the newer cam stuff from released kernels to the kernel we have.
[HTC Rezound] localceleb:
You make it sound so easy :)
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
The camera issue is kind of the kicker for me right now. I use my Rezound as my default camera, since I don't have a stand-alone camera anymore.. well, the camera and the brick bug..
[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
Well, then get to work. :good::highfive:
[HTC Rezound] blestsol:
You said a funny.

:p

Rezzy
[HTC Rezound] Antoine.WG:
Technically yes but it would be a waste of time and money. By the time the legal system does anything, the 90 days will have passed and money will have been wasted on lawyers in stead of development. The best option is to wait patiently for the source to drop and maybe throw a few bucks at the devs for their hard work.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
I'd love to. I figured out how to compile stuff... still have no idea how to actually fix anything unless it's as simple as adding libs or other necessary files... :(
[HTC Rezound] apophis9283:
Im wondering when aosp/aokp will be out of alpha/beta testing
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
When the major problems are fixed.

Which is unlikely without kernel source.

[HTC Rezound] dragonrazorz:
Curious, when camera does work....could we flash the hq camera mod on aosp so i keep the sense skin? Only thing i dont like bout aosp is the boring camera skin that takes up room
[HTC Rezound] who MIKE D:
Nope, the HTC camera is tied into the HTC Framework so it would not be possible
[HTC Rezound] dragonrazorz:
Figured :( wasnt cm or another team mentioning a project where they took all the best stuff from different roms (htc, lg, ect) n making like a hybrid version of em all?
[HTC Rezound] live2die:
aokp does this
[HTC Rezound] Kelton Rivas:
I thought another major problem aside from the camera was that videos couldn't play?
[HTC Rezound] dragonrazorz:
I meant, i thought they were gonna have like a sense skinned camera in aosp, and all that fun stuff, it was a long time aho n coulda just remember it wrong

[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
Already been fixed
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
I wanted to say thanks for the amazing work you guys have been doing over the last few weeks. CM9 is my daily driver with, installed through Boot Manager beside ViperRez for the SD card fix and the rare occasion I need the camera. I'm eagerly awaiting a new release, but I'm not impatient. It's already I'd rather it be right than rushed. I'm going throw a few bucks to you and dmeadows when I get paid.
[HTC Rezound] live2die:
so we can expect a fully functional aosp build except camera:rolleyes:
[HTC Rezound] chad0989:
Pretty much. And that whole bricking thing. The brick thing probably isn't even a hard fix, and if we had a way to unbrick from it it would be fixed in no time. But right now the testing of it that doesn't go so well. Its definitely something that has been commited after my original commits, since that didn't brick phones. So I might go through one commit at a time and see. I believe there is some behavior that occurs even while s-on that might be indicative that it would brick if s-off. Hopefully that will allow me to test without bricking phones.
[HTC Rezound] live2die:
i am a Chinese living in China，hope one day i can go to the U.S. to say thank you in front of you！i am planning to immigrate to Canada now.
[HTC Rezound] SynisterWolf:
im sure you have seen this then.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1833530&highlight=unbrick

maybe someone with a rezound and another phone can do some testing for ya.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
I think that method is only for fixing hboot's on S-ON devices damaged either by going S-ON with an unsigned hboot or a failed RUU flash. Pretty sure that doesn't do anything for the S-OFF total bricks.
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
You gotta learn to read, synister! ;)
[HTC Rezound] sabindaman:
If you have them send out a new rezound because say, Your has started overheating and rebooting, then if the one you receive has some "dead pixels" I personally had several with dead pixels or the screen bezel around the screen separating and having a gap. I went through about 10 before getting one that was perfect. These issues also did not require store visits and could be taken car of via phone call. I had 6+ rezounds and 2 Thunderbolts(what i got upgraded from) for a couple weeks before sending them back and was not charged.

The only real hassle I see is the S-off process. I did mine a while ago so I don't know how much streamlining has happened since then for the process.

So if anyone is doing replacements and they get a device that is deficient in some way it could provide a great source of devices for testing development on.
[HTC Rezound] live2die:
in chad's aosp development thread i saw chyrus said “still going，no brick”，i am wondering that if the brick thing is one time or random during usage？i thought we can see a brick immediately after flashing a wrong rom.
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
Chad is working on fixing the issue, and this means he's making progress.

Sent from my NeoMax Rezound
[HTC Rezound] Squirrel1620:
That would really suck if they released the aosp and everyone bricked a week later because we didn't test long enough. Has a mass bricking event ever occurred before?
[HTC Rezound] live2die:
i think it's a brick-or-not thing that we can tell right after we flash a rom. :confused:
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
I'm still running the first release of aokp... I'm good unless there are major bug fixes. I'm using boot manager so I have no sd issues, 4g is solid for me. Camera is the only issue that I have noticed.
[HTC Rezound] mtotho:
People with S-Off were bricking. Going by the 2 or 3 people who have been bricked from Chad's testing (including Chad) I am pretty sure they were all able to boot into the rom at least once, then after a reboot it would not boot any longer. In other words, it doesn't seem like something that undependably happened at some random time after they flashed it... He just wants to be absolutely positive, that is why he is testing so long and thoroughly.
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
Yup. S-on doesn't brick. I can confirm that one. Ran a cm9 build from Aug 19 for 2 days then went back bc I needed my camera
[HTC Rezound] live2die:
sounds like any rom including stock ones may brick our phone，because they cant test for a life time？we still have chances to brick our phone even a year later？no offence，english is not my native，and i know nothing about dev things，just curious:p

---------- Post added at 03:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:24 PM ----------

team aokp released their first jb build，hope D can make it work on rezound soon
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
Well, most likely not. Sense 3.6 roms will never brick since they are made for our phone, that of course if they don't modify anything important. Sense 4 roms may brick but I don't see that happening since people have been running them for awhile. As for aosp, they may brick. Mostly since their are such deep modifications to the rom
[HTC Rezound] TXI Kaze:
I've rebooted, booted into recovery, forced my phone to lock up and reboot and still haven't bricked on two different builds. I'm still testing it to make sure I've covered everything I could think of.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Rumor is there are no longer any replacement Rezounds available...

My guess is that Verizon monitors forums like these and have caught onto our little AOSP brick-testing methods...

Youre kidding right? This isn't the first phone to have soff, kernels, roms, etc.

[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
Yay I TOTALLY want a fugly yellow screen and even worse battery life than the Rezound.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Yeah, you're probably right...

A couple of beers and the conspiracy theories start flowing...
[HTC Rezound] TXI Kaze:
You want conspiracy? Okay.

Motorola releases a way to unlock the Razr, similar to the htcdev method. Shortly after that Verizon starts sending Razr's instead of Rezounds. Maybe Google (now that they own Motorola) paid Verizon some cash to allow the unlock and to push the Razr over the Rezound in order to get it more dev attention.

CONSPIRACY.
[HTC Rezound] Squirrel1620:
Maybe, but how would Google or Motorola benefit from dev attention on the razr? It's most likely a business decision, they're losing money on the Rezound
[HTC Rezound] TXI Kaze:
Because they just released a way to unlock the phone. What better way to push that? Think about it:

ICS update hits and causes a lot of problems that can't be fixed with a "Did you try turning it off and then back on?" so think of how many Rezounds just went out. Google probably figured that out and stepped in to pitch an offer.

I do love conspiracy theories. Always the most random things lol
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
I think the unlock is only for the dev version of the Razr. :(
[HTC Rezound] ijustwantmydock:
This is correct Verizon hates their customers thats why I'm leaving to t-mobile come whenever I can

I will let let you guess why... THE SAD THING IS THEY CALLED ME. I am not even eligible for an upgrade for 2 months and already they are bothering me about it. Its always about them and never about their customers......
[HTC Rezound] TXI Kaze:
Did some research into this. All RAZRs released during and after the month of August can be unlocked.

Motorola hasn't had a clean record with the RAZR. "Yeaaah we just came out with the razr, but here's the MAXX!". I don't know. I will admit it's a nice phone. I've never seen one with a yellow tint, it has a solid build quality and Blur is faster than sense imo. But the screen on the Rez definitely blows the RAZR away.
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
And before that, we just made the Bionic, but here's the Razr!

They yellow-ness isn't a hardware defect; it's just that the whites on that display are a little yellowish. It might be fixable through calibrating it.

Sent from my NeoMax Rezound
[HTC Rezound] Antoine.WG:
I've thought the screen was a little greenish, actually, or at least the greens were overly vivid and the rest of the colors were washed out. Either way, I didn't like it. The Galaxy Nexus seemed like it had a yellowish tint to me, but that could have just been burn-in.
[HTC Rezound] TXI Kaze:
If I remember it right, the razr has a pentile matrix screen, meaning there is more green.

I can't be much of one to judge for battery life because an overheating issue took its toll. As far as I can tell, everything but camera works. So, if you use your camera a lot, then no.

[HTC Rezound] rabidpencil:

I think the camera issue is actually related to the video accel. I backported the ICS camera stuff from some of the released HTC kernels and the cameras seem to be detected and want to start.

To my knowledge bootmanager shouldn't discriminate against this build for any reason over any other: go to settings in boot manager and tell it to keep your screen on the whole duration of the install and don't touch your phone no matter what. I haven't yet tried it through bootmanager myself (I don't need a camera) BUT I ran Paranoid Android this way and I had the same issue for a long time, but it finally sorted itself out after I let my phone do its thing for a while.

I'm curious to know the hangup on bluetooth? I know it's been mentioned that we needed kernel source to fix that, but is that because of the drivers or something else? CM in the past has used it's own bt drivers and an opensource stack with a higher bitpool to replace the horrible proprietary one that HTC uses.

Please tell me that we aren't going to be stuck with HTC's garbage on this. CM is my only hold out for decent quality bt audio streaming just like it was on my thunderbolt.
