[HTC Rezound] WebmastuhB:
Yes, you are right. I just tested this. I powered down, powered up. Everything was fine. Chose Restart and then Hot Reboot. Phone rebooted, but it was not right.

Bluetooth didn't work. 4G was not in the top row. Email wouldn't work (I could see the old stuff, but not the new.) Oddly, I could still surf the web with Chrome.

Doing a shutdown and then a power up corrected the issue.

Conclusion: Hot Reboot is worthless on my phone.

Course of Action: Never Hot Reboot. Do more research as to why Hot Reboot sucks.
[HTC Rezound] Cares:
Has Google even acknowledged or addressed this issue? It's pretty major in my opinion.

Also oddly, I lost all of my Latitude contacts and I can't re-add anyone.
[HTC Rezound] TUDrewser:
For latitude, are they just stale? I freaked out once because of this, then menu--> show stale contacts fixed it.
[HTC Rezound] Cares:
Nope not stale. No friends showing in stale when I do "show stale." I had about 30 contacts on Latitude and maybe 20 active at any given time.
[HTC Rezound] TUDrewser:
That blows.
[HTC Rezound] Cares:
Seems like it's a pretty common problem based on discussions on Google Groups. No real fix though...pretty annoying.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Yes, they are aware of it and the discussion is here on Google Products: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!searchin/maps/crash/maps/1woL2YtTbZo/_VsSuhHDeN4J

But honestly, the problem here is NOT Google or HTC.. the problem is

Verizon

!!! We should all get on them as much as possible, they already have the answer but are acting like the slow, uncaring corporation that they are!

I say again, Google is not at fault here (although they might be able to make a fix), Google Maps works fine on almost all devices, the exception is the HTC Rezound (and HTC Sensation, but I don't know anything about this device), it also only occurs when using firmware 3.14.605.10 and 3.14.605.12 (and custom ROM's based off of one of these), the later being Verizon's current official version. HTC has already given Verizon the new 4.3.605.2 version, and this has no issues with Maps, it works perfectly, so why should HTC try to fix an old version of software when they already have a new version that fixes the problem? They shouldn't have to even worry about it, they already have a fix.

Verizon has the answer, all they need to do is push it out and the problem with Maps is solved... so is most people's issues with high battery temperature, poor battery performance, signal drops, laggy performance, and most other issues people complain about in with the ICS update. EVERYONE I have talked to irl or online has said it is a huge improvement over the 3.14.605.12 version in all aspects, so why are is Verizon doing nothing? I think it is because they hate Google and HTC but are forced by the market to deal with them, and they will do anything they can to discredit Google and HTC in the eyes of the consumer. I can think of no other logical answer as to why VZW has not pushed out the solution to most people's ICS problems, including the Maps issue!

My two cents worth, take it for what it's worth!
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Mine is based on 2.01.605.11 and its having issues too.

When I updated to the most recent firmware (4.03.605.2) I was still having problems, but I forgot to do a full wipe before I tested it.
[HTC Rezound] TUDrewser:
You make it sound like pushing new firmware and/or software to hundreds of thousands of devices is a trivial thing. It really isn't. Yes, it needs to be fixed, but there's not some conspiracy whereas Verizon is sitting on it because they hate Google. That is a dumb assumption. It's just a lot of work. Make the changes, testing, testing, validation, testing...need to make sure it doesn't break something else. It's a huge deal.

And yes, I played to the troll. It annoyed me.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
I absolutely believe you and stand corrected... but you are the first person I have heard of that flashed the full RUU with radios, hboot, firmware, etc. and had issues with Maps. How did you install the RUU without getting wiped? I thought it was done automatically, not by user selection.

---------- Post added at 05:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:42 PM ----------

Perhaps my post was a little extreme and did indeed hint at a conspiracy that is probably false but it was intended to be somewhat humorous... still I stand by most of what I said.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Well, I didn't actually flash the RUU... I took the PH98IMG.zip with the firmware, hboot, radios, etc and flashed it manually. In other words, I didn't apply install the 4.03.605.2 ROM, only the firmware. I installed that firmware over my existing ROM, which is based off the Android 4.0.1 leak from way back in January, and has always used the 2.01.605.11 firmware and radios with the 2.11 ENG hboot.

So, since I flashed the firmware only rather than doing the whole RUU, it did not perform the factory reset. I probably should have wiped it myself manually, but it was so unstable I gave up on it after a few minutes and just restored my previous nandroid backup.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Hmmm... interesting... thanks for the info.
[HTC Rezound] WebmastuhB:
Ok, downloaded Google Maps 6.9 ( com.google.android.apps.maps.apk ) from http://www.iapktop.com/google-maps-6-9-0-build609001403.html

Went into settings > apps > Google Maps. Clicked uninstall (or maybe uninstall updates - I don't remember. sorry.) Google Maps rolled itself back to 6.7.

I was all set to install 6.9, when I decided to see how 6.7 would run. It ran fine - no crashes. Left it on for several minutes, scrolled, searched, zoomed, looked at traffic, got directions to Cleveland, ran navigator. No problems whatsoever.

So... I don't care anymore. Problem SOLVED! 6.7 is fine for me for now. I'll keep the 6.9 file around and forget about this until 6.11 or some other fix is out. I got bigger fish to fry.

Thanks for your help guys.
[HTC Rezound] GazaIan:
6.9.2 works. HTC Sensation has the same issue and that's what I've been using for now. Make sure auto-update for Maps is disabled. Here's 6.9.2 - http://goo.gl/4p2O9
[HTC Rezound] coltstrgj:
I had the same problem on the default non unlocked phone. I had been scared to mod in any way, but this is what motivated me to do so.
[HTC Rezound] muertecaza:
Can't say it really comforts me, but HTC says they're working with GOOG to fix it.

https://t-mobile.jive-mobile.com/#jive-document?content=/api/core/v1/documents/4703
[HTC Rezound] Phaded:
Weird... I thought it was a Verizon problem. If you ask the guy a page back at least. Funny how non Verizon phones were also affected, but yea, totally Verizon's fault....
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
I didn't say it was Verizon's fault or problem... What I said was that Verizon has the answer for the Rezound, which is a very popular device with a huge number of handsets deployed, and they are doing nothing, big difference.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
Seems like it would be way easier for Google to fix than HTC...
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
Yea mine still reboots even on all the new global stuff. :(
[HTC Rezound] lancasterv3:
i was on viper rez 1.3 latest firmware and radios before the ota, I did not have any problems. I just updated the firmware and radios to the ota and switched to neomax adrenaline 2.0 and maps started the hard reboots. The previous version of maps that Gazalan posted works fine though thanks for that :D
[HTC Rezound] RockinHomes:
It reboots my Rezound too. I uninstalled all updates, installed the apk for 6.9.2 and it's working fine again.
[HTC Rezound] Dancershrink:
I experienced the reboot issue until I flashed the 4.3.605.2 ruu and have had no problems since then. I flashed the full ruu rather than just firmware and radios.
[HTC Rezound] TUDrewser:
Ditto, went to full ruu for 4.3.605.2 and then when to a rooted Rom based on the same. Works perfect.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
I ruu'd that one and restored ineff dues and I was still getting it. I'm on viper now and haven't tried it again yet... chingy released his ineff rebase too the same night I flashed viperrez :'( lol. I'm notice that my location stuff is a little wonky on viperrez so I sorta don't even feel like seeing if it works. But if someone is using the ineff dues 1.2 rebase they should post confirming if it works or not with that one :)
[HTC Rezound] TUDrewser:
I found that if I flashed the 4.3.605.2 ruu and then flashed neo 2 or a Rom based on 3.15.605.12, I had the same issue. Def need a Rom based on the new 4.

Edit: or the old .10...seems like it's the .12 base that is causing issues.

---------- Post added at 07:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 PM ----------

And I'm running the ineff deus rebase and it is working beautifully. So well in fact that I s-offed my wife's rezound, flashed the ruu and put the rebased ineff deus on hers too. And I only put the most reliable stuff on hers because I hear about it if something is screwed up. Works great on both phones.
[HTC Rezound] Dancershrink:
I'm also running zhp pilot's Vigor 360 with the latest ruu with no reboots which is consistent with the trend that running the lastest update for both the ruu and rom stops the problem.
[HTC Rezound] waaahsabi:
this problem is not limited to HTC devices. Happens on my galaxy tab, for instance, but not on galaxy s - both running CM9. Strange...
[HTC Rezound] MedleHed:
Google Maps has an update in the Play Store. Version is 6.11.1 and hopefully fixes some big problems!

Edit: The reviews in the Play Store are very positive for the update. Go get some!
[HTC Rezound] swinokur:
Installed the new version from the store on my rezound (nils' business sense 3.6 v5.7). Seems okay so far! (i've had it downloading a big map area for 20 minutes or so... still chugging along...)
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
New update 6.11.1 FIXES ALL my problems!!!

YAY!!
[HTC Rezound] haydnlj:
maps 6.11.1

Not for me... 30 seconds in and still got a reboot :(...
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Make sure you wipe Maps' cache and stored data after the update.
[HTC Rezound] compulov:
Another vote for "the latest update seems to have fixed this". I also cleared maps data and cache right after installing the update. :good:
[HTC Rezound] dplane:
Looks like they also added a ton of new bicycle navigation routing..glad it was fixed for those who did not upgrade to the global RUU yet! Weaksauce however that Google never officially acknowledged the issue (unless I missed it) or even mentioned it in the update notes. Guess pretending something never happened means it never did, right?
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
I don't think it was really Google's issue. That it was only affecting a couple of HTC phones running particular software versions points strongly to it being an issue in the HTC radios or kernel that something in the maps update exposed.
[HTC Rezound] maniac2k:
Latest maps works for me. Ran ruu twice and installed slimkang rom. No problems.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
Yea they updated it to 6.11.1. Seems to have fixed a lot of issues HTC users were having
[HTC Rezound] drivie:
Sadly the update (6.11.1) didn't work for me. I'm S-OFF, latest firmware, ViperRez and maps navigation causes a restart in about 8 - 10 mins. ViperRez is not based on the latest release so maybe that's part of the problem...not sure.

I didn't run the RUU but instead installed the firmware/radios only. I have read that installing the same radios twice (possibly twice in a row) causes a bricked phone. Can I still safely run the RUU since I'm now on the latest firmware/radios or not?

Thanks
[HTC Rezound] MedleHed:
Yes, you can run the RUU without worry. The radio flash twice in a row causing a brick was for a specific radio on a specific phone. I believe it was an HTC Incredible thing. No need to worry with the Rezound.

[Xperia Arc General] Yovecio:
It's simply to fix, you must change the profiles in the media_profiles.xml, located in: etc/media_profiles.xml

before it's:

<AudioEncoderCap name="aac" enabled="true"

minBitRate="128000" maxBitRate="128000"

minSampleRate="48000" maxSampleRate="48000"

minChannels="1" maxChannels="1" />

after:

<AudioEncoderCap name="aac" enabled="true"

minBitRate="128000" maxBitRate="128000"

minSampleRate="48000" maxSampleRate="48000"

minChannels="1" maxChannels="2" />

Simply you must change, maxChannels from 1 to 2 to have stereo recording :good:

I really don't understand Odin sometimes, it doesn't make any sense at all. At first my stock cable didn't work very well, and everyone said to go get a Blackberry one from Verizon because theirs is a top quality cable (I guess Blackberry did SOMETHING right after all) and that worked for a while.... Every time I get it to work I simply leave the cable on the port it was on so I can go back to it later, thinking that if it worked once, it should work again, right? Nope... Every single time it's a huge hassle and this particular time I have tried every single port on my computer w 2 different USB cables and I still don't get a COM link....

Help please!

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Exactly. Uninstall drivers and let Windows find and reinstall them.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theMallacht:
I have already done that. When first double-clicking "Samsung_Mobile_USB_Driver_V1.3.800.0.msi" it asks if you would like to uninstall or repair the current drivers. I clicked uninstall, waited for it to finish, then re-installed again and it still didn't work.

You needed to use a file to force driver installation? Do they not install on their own? -- shot in the dark, but try diff. drivers (or the ones that should be installing on their own, specifically)?

Start up Odin, Take out your battery, plug in your phone to your computer without battery in there, put phone in download mode, then put back your battery.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theMallacht:
Ok.... So now I'm really frustrated... Odin has always worked no problem for me. I've had a little trouble sometimes, sure, but now it is just outright refusing to work. I've tried 2 different cables: my stock cable and a blackberry usb cable that fits really tight in the port that seems to work much better, normally.

I can't get a COM connection for the life of me. I tried what omair2005 suggested about taking the battery out, etc and that didn't work. Windows keeps telling me that the "device has malfunctioned" but it has always said that so I really don't think anything of that considering it's worked before.

Anyone have any out of the box thinking on this one? I'm definitely not a noob to flashing nor Odin, this must be some sort of weird glitch, or perhaps something simple that I'm overlooking....
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Did you reboot after the uninstall and reboot the phone? Then with both freshly booted let Windows find the drivers. It makes a difference.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Qortez1:
I've been trying to trade my HOX for a GS3 for a few days now but I'm getting ahead of myself so let me start from the beginning. I started out with my GNex and heard about the HOX and how amazing it was so like any other android enthusiast I immediately set my sights on acquiring one. However it wasn't as simple as that lol I tried for months to acquire one, refusing to pay cash, to no avail. With a somewhat mild sadness I gave up in defeat and made my piece with my GNex. Little did I know a ray of "hope" was gonna shine on me by way of the GS3 lol after leaks, rumors and shady speculation I immediately fell in love with it but the HOX still had a place in my heart I just could not get the simple elegance of that contour unibody silhouette out of my mind. So pushing all those mixed emotions and thoughts aside I decided to pursue the GS3. After finally acquiring one, which was a feat in and of itself, I spent a week with it and I must admit I treated it like a dirty mistress lol my GNex got shelved almost immediately and I used it every minute of that week. As the week was drawing to a close I sat down and thought about what exactly made me love the GS3 so much. Was it the design? Kinda. Was it the name? Not so much. Or was it the software? I came to the decision that this was the sorce of my affection. After coming to this realization I returned the GS3 and took my GNex of the shelf and fell for it all over again with the buttery sweet allure of Jellybean lol After using it as my daily once again I came to a settled state of mind and convinced myself that I was content in my decision to stay with the GNex. That was until I decided to peruse the marketplace on a whim. Then to what seemed to be that of a dream inside of a looking glass I saw that someone was willing to trade their HOX for a GNex. The first thought in my mind was &#&%@&&#&@* yeah!!! Lol I then preceded into making a trade and within 24 hours I had finally received my long awaited love. All those repressed thoughts and emotions came flooding back like a tsunami. And now as I type from my HOX I can now say that I am indeed content with this beautifully crafted piece of artwork....that is until the next thing comes out lol
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] InflatedTitan:
Amazing story bro hahaha... although this phone had a small introduction, from the second I seen it I was also in love. Had to have it. Once I got it, the nostalgia was unreal. I can't stay off of it, can't stop customizing it. I've played around with a JB nexus, I play around with my buddies lte GS3.... I just don't think they compare to my OneX. We do alot of modding and different roms.. my benchmarks absolutely tower over theirs, do side by side comparisons and mine is just way more snappy flipping through screens, in and out of apps, and going in and out of app drawer... not to mention the screen is out of this world. My wife accidently dropped it (never left a mark).... almost divorced her lol. So I came to my senses, rubbed her back and told her it was OK... I'm talking about my OneX of course hahaha.
