Chad I flashed the Rom you provided. I did not brick despite rebooting -That being said, I am scared and so I have wiped and currently installing Newts again. I did flash your boot.img separately.. S-ON.

Maybe my phone has a mutation in it's dna. We just need to extract it and make a vaccine.
[HTC Rezound] badogg:
Like I said, we all know the risks - especially if we are going to be messing around with these really early released builds. If there are some that somehow aren't able to get that mentally - they really have no business rooting or flashing Rom's to their phones.

Just my .02 cents. ;)

Nope, all I did was downloaded an app from the market and opened a few web pages. I only had it up and running for probably 5-10 min, rebooted then nothing.

Well I went ahead and deleted the revamped RIL I was working on. Don't want that to happen again.

The good news though is that the roaming fix didn't have anything to do with the RIL so we should be able to get that straightened out with the original RIL I posted.

[HTC Rezound] JustSomeDude:
I would definitely set aside an hour or two and keep calling until you speak to a manager to restore your unlimited. Verizon is pulling this kind of crap on everyone - I've spent hours on the phone arguing for friends and family members who they tried to take unlimited from without contract renewals.
[HTC Rezound] jmichaels1982:
is this for real

Please tell me that this is not verizon's last stunt. I go through like 6 warranty replacements per phone ( for tbolt and now for rezound ). So according to chad, will we lose unlimited ? WTHHHH

I use about 120 gigs per months, and I was banking on warranty replacements till i find the perfect phone.

Can chad or anyone confirm this, will warranty swap change unlimited to tiered ?

EDIT : I just called verizon and they said warranty swap will allow me to keep unlimited till of course the life of the warranty is over. But i still need confirmation from someone who went though the actual swap.
[HTC Rezound] quepaso:
If you're using 120 gigs a month, its why people like chad had their unlimited taken away. Abuse leads to these measures.

well technically if you read your contract the define "unlimited" as 5gb. This is because the unlimited plans were made back in the day when all you could do was receive emails and surf on WAP browsers.

[HTC Rezound] jmichaels1982:
omg what have i started

Please note that when i am confronted with an argument that will take this thread in the wrong path i just ignore it. I dont agree with some people but this is not that the point of this thread.

the whole point of my original questions was to see why chad lost his unlimited, bec i like to help devs out by beta testing. I can not not beta test anymore if i will lose my unlimited because of my usage.

This is an aosp thread so i thought its legit to ask here since my intention was to beta test aosp and since chad brought up something i have never heard of before , warranty pushing out unlimited granfathers into tiered .

Please refrain from going back to our old ways, we have so many devs jumping on board and even got commended by a moderator, if you would like to argue about fair data usage , either start a thread or go flame me in another one.

I will take all the flame you want to give, just leave our devs alone.

Thank you

New build box flies. Build from start to finish took ~35-40min, Much better than the 2.5+hours it took before. Definitely a serious upgrade from what I was building on, its wonderful what 6 more cores and 4x the amount ram will do for you. I had to put it in a bigger case though since the board is full size, hopefully this one still fits hidden behind the dresser or the fiancee isn't going to be too happy. Haha.

[HTC Rezound] maniac2k:

[HTC Rezound] Antoine.WG:
Intel 520 series SSDs are pretty amazing and they come with a 5 year warranty. Other than the warranty, they're identical to the 320 series. If you want even more blisteringly fast speed, get 2 and stripe them.

And you can never have too much RAM, especially on something like a build box. Onboard graphics should do fine for something like that, just keep the video memory small. Multi-threading and disk latency are more important.
[HTC Rezound] sepffuzzball:
I'd have to say, owning 17 SSDs technically, with 13 of them being OCZ...I've only had one SSD failure at all and that was due to a faulty motherboard frying every SSD/HDD it came in contact with (DELL E6400 Laptop).

OCZ SSD Lineup:

4x 30GB OCZ Vertex

2x 60GB OCZ Vertex

4x 60GB OCZ Vertex 2

1x 120GB OCZ Vertex 3 Max IOPS

2x 180GB OCZ Revodrive X2 PCI Express x4

I'd have to say, SSDs are just beautiful things. Granted I have tons of OCZ ones and I'm not saying that they're the absolute best (I do like Corsair, Crucial, Samsung, and Intel as well for SSDs). But damn are they some of the fastest things when they come out!

Anyone willing to test something? There is a very real possibility of bricking, but hopefully staying S-ON should prevent that. Maybe someone who has a phone with a bad ESN or something broken and vzw won't replace it because they determined there was water damage (it needs to boot though). Or one that's already getting sent back. I mostly just want to verify that s-on prevents a brick (as it should since NAND write protect is enabled) as I want to continue to work on AOSP but I absolutely can't brick again.

Best news ever in the Rezound forum as far as I'm concerned. Thanks Chad!
[HTC Rezound] Divine_Madcat:
ewll, i know there are general improvements made in every revision, but sadly, i cannot say specifically if the end result is much different (performance, etc). Things like drivers and what not are newer, and may have better optimizations; but i should also point out that just because the kernel is 2.3x, doesn't mean it doesn't have code from newer versions. Commonly, when making older kernels work with the newer OS's, pieces from the newest builds are backported to the older kernels, giving a mix-n-match kind of feature set.

However, I think we are deviating too much from the topic at hand, so i will say let us get back to celebrating the RIL revilation, and hope we get to play with it in the very near future. :D

One more question... if I decide to go back s-on. Because honestly.. I don't really take advantage of having s-off. Will I need to downgrade firmware to 3.14.605.5 to ensure that I can re s-off in the future? Or is s-off confirmed to still work on the current 3.14.605.12? I would assume the same method would work because I don't think the hboot is different between the builds. But I am paranoid and don't ever want to do something I can't recover from
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
I know, just if I make a build, I don't wanna brick. If s-on helps, I'll write the secure flag again.

The exploit for S-off, to the best of my knowledge, will still work on the current firmware. It is not dependant on a certain ruu/firmware.
