[HTC Rezound] davidetkin511:
Well I've had the rezound since it came out and I always loved it. But it's a little outdated now and development has slowed quite a bit. So I'm thinking about getting a new phone.

I'm 99% sure I'm not gonna get the iPhone, even though I love my iPad and MacBook I think android is better than the iPhone.

The galaxy nexus is one of my top choices but I think they might be coming out with a new one soon and I would rather wait.

The s3 is my top choice as of now.

I don't see any reason to get the d inc lte.

I'm looking for battery life that is better than my rezound. I would like a decent screen but it's not that important. Most importantly I want the phone to be smooth and fast. And I would love something that is getting jb.

So what do you think? Keep the rezound or get another phone? Any suggestions other than what I listed?

Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] evilstewie23:
Honestly i would wait for the next nexus device and cross my fingers its made buy htc lol. I love sense and all but i really like the fact that a nexus is made exactly for that version of android at the time and is still in mind when they make a new os. Like the nexus s came with gingerbread, then ics, and will soon get jellybean i here. I mean 3 os updates and it runs even better than when it came out with gb, unlike many other phones (not the rezound) when they get a os update they start to usually slow down because its not made with that os in mine. But thats just me lol
[HTC Rezound] davidetkin511:
Thanks! I think I'm gonna stick with my rezound for now. If the one x comes to Verizon I'll get that
[HTC Rezound] tmach:
Unfortunately they've already said Sammy's making the next Nexus. :confused:

Actually I guess that's not official... Just based on a leaked Samsung spec sheet.
[HTC Rezound] dogswind:
I've fought tooth and nail defending this phone for its outstanding hardware, but I'm starting to think it may be time to throw in the towel. The radios have amazing signal compared to Samsung. Problem? My strong as hell 4G signal stalls constantly. It never drops, just stalls all communications. I was so happy to see data stalls listed as fixed on this new ruu leak, but its completely untrue. No change. Not to mention the kernel drama. Still runs hot as hell. My respect for HTC has gone straight out the window this time. Not even aosp can redeem it for me now. So in short, I'm ready for a New phone as well and tell you go for it.

[HTC Rezound] WebmastuhB:
I bought a new iPhone for my sister a few months ago. I was setting it up for her and had it side by side next to my Rezound for about 4 or 5 days. I was just shocked at what a piece of crap it was. The screen was so small, it was like holding a kids toy or something. Honestly, it was painful to look at with its tiny, tiny screen.

3G just sucks. Granted, it was on Sprint's network (which I hear is not as good as Verizon) but 3G just sucked. Slow, spotty... Downloading apps seemed to take forever compared to my blazing fast 4G.

No widgets? WTF? I had to click on 3 or 4 things just to get to a Bluetooth control panel - my Rezound has a link right to the Bluetooth control panel on the homescreen. I love the big clock/weather widget on my homescreen, and having 4 different apps I can immediately go into during an unlock is terrific.

I have a few friends who have iPhones. One day, one of those guys who does sales (and is kind of an ass) started projecting that "I'm awesome because I own and iPhone and I love it and I love me and Im soo dam kewl" attitude - and I just tore him to shreds with the above three points.

He countered with "Well, I use iTunes and all my stuff is there and it magically appears in my iCloud, bla bla bla". I admitted he did have a point, but I ripped into him about how much iTunes sucks/I have my own cloud/etc. But I make sure to rip on him and his tiny screen and slow bandwidth opium of the masses toy whenever he brings it up.

I honestly feel sorry for people who are blinded by how cool they think they are because they bought an iPhone. Seriously, it reminds me of these people who are brainwashed into a religious cult and think they are going to be teleported to a paradise planet by an alien named Xennue or something.

I use Gmail/Google Calendar/Google Contacts/Google Docs... I have no desire to give that up for an iPhone.

However, I do like my iPad. Now that it can run Chrome, its actually nice. I can easily access all the above with little hassle.

Other than this ICS/Google Maps 6.10 debacle, I've had no issues with my Rezound whatsoever. With its extended battery, its just a great piece of hardware. I can't see myself changing that for any reason for a long, long time...

Now... Tablets... that's another story...
[HTC Rezound] IrvChynaman:
Wow so much animosity towards the iPhone. Its really not a bad device. Both iOS and Android are solid platforms, and both have their pros and cons.

EDIT: Scratch all that i mustve overlooked the fact you have an iPad, so you do like the platform. As for the cultish fanboyism of ios yeah its there, but its going to exist everywhere. We have fanboy android users with the same mentality.
[HTC Rezound] davidetkin511:
Well if I get a new phone it will be the s3. So what do you think, rezound or s3? I really don't know what to do here. I've been with htc since the apache. The galaxy s3 looks pretty good though. What do you think?
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
nice looking phone with a better processor. Already leaks of JB on the international version. Promising. Personally, I'm riding the rezound for a while longer.
[HTC Rezound] THE-COPS:
"GONNA RIP'EM A NEW ONE!" - Duke Nukem

Well said Webmastuh . Hehehe.. iphones may be slick, but they are highly overrated. Lots of these new Android phones whoop ish*ts a$$. The Rezound is an excellent piece of hardware, when paired with the proper software and firmware. The S3 is an excellent handset. The interface and graphics acceleration are much faster than the Rez, but as you know, Samsung has always had poor radios. Idk if they have improved it on the new S3 though...
[HTC Rezound] WebmastuhB:
Ha! Yeah, sorry if the post came off full of iPhone/iOS vitriol. I agree - both iOS and Android are both solid OS's/Platforms and both have their pros and cons. For the record I work with both and I'll program for either. I dropped the "religious fervor" about this stuff a while ago - they are all just tools.

I actually have a couple of iPads, and like a lot of things about them. I use them a lot to do actual productive work (mostly note taking and emails on the go). I have a couple of Android tablets, and I'm interested in getting a Surface.

But I'm sticking with my attack on iPhones. G3 sucks compared to my Rezound's G4, the iPhone screen is much smaller than my Rezound, and iPhone doesn't have widgets (and that shouldn't be overlooked. They are convenient as heck.)

I found out the other day that if I ever want to upgrade my Rezound with a subsidized phone from Verizon, I MUST drop my unlimited data plan for one of those metered plans they have. I told the rep I would never do this, and that I'd fire Verizon and switch to Sprint or T-Mobile first.

But the question I had was why upgrade my phone? The answer was "for new functionality that comes out". My answer was "I'll just do new functionality on a tablet, and keep my phone as-is." I'm a pretty imaginative guy, but I can't see why I'd have a specific need to upgrade my phone anytime soon. If some new killer-must-have app comes out tomorrow that doesn't run on a Rezound - cool, I'll just get it on a tablet. I'll keep the Rezound for basic stuff and use other advanced/new stuff on a tablet. The Rezound will be relegated to a bandwidth pipe with some basic email checking functions. Oh, and actual phone calls...

Maybe if 5G comes out that the Rezound can't handle... (and it would have to be a 5 - 10 times better than 4G to make it worth it), then maybe I'd consider replacing my Rezound... Unless a tablet comes out that has it built in... Or maybe some specific must-have thing would work better with a small form factor, but then again it might also be available in 5-7inch tablet for $200...
[HTC Rezound] HarleyChick:
Switching back to my old phone....

Maybe I'm crazy (don't answer that), but I'm seriously thinking about switching back to my Dinc2 from the Rezound. After using the Rezound for several months, I'm just not that crazy about it. Sure, its bigger and has 4G, but everything about it - flashing ROMs, S-On/S-Off, this radio, that radio - is so COMPLICATED. The Dinc2 is just so much easier.

And I know that development on the Dinc2 has slowed way down, but it has on the Rezound too. I guess I'm just not sure what I should do, but I don't want to switch, then switch back again because I miss 4G. Any advice would be appreciated.
[HTC Rezound] blestsol:
Read one of the more simple guides and stick with your Rezzy. It only seems complicated to me when I'm speed reading.
[HTC Rezound] JustSomeDude:
I'd advise against reactivating a 3g phone on your line, especially if you have unlimited or a double data deal. Verizon is looking for any excuse to take those away, and switching between a 4g and 3g phone apparently qualifies. (Seriously, I've been on the phone with Verizon all morning trying to fix my uncle's plan).

if you have questions on flashing, just ask, there are helpful rezound people around.
[HTC Rezound] blestsol:
Ouch.. Good to know

Just called and checked and they told me that if I activate a TB on the line my unlimited. Maybe it's if you flop back? I'm pretty sure the line was 3g.
[HTC Rezound] HarleyChick:
I was wondering about that. Thanks for the info. That may just be enough to make me want to stay on the Rez. :good:
[HTC Rezound] thelunchboxosu:
I don't know why people think dev on the Rezound is slowing because it's actually at more of a standstill. But, the OTA updates have dropped and now we are waiting for source to drop. Once that happens I have a feeling dev will continue on again and hopefully continue on long after the Rezound's shelf life much like the orig Incredible.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dean11:
Hi all, got my kindle fire brick. I think my partition is messed up. I bought a factory cable which able me to install twrp and i succefully(i guess) flashed energy ICS. But it prompt me "e:unable to mount '/data" e:unable to mount '/cache". I were to boot to normal boot it will just boot endlessly but i still can access to fff and twrp.i did some research on repartitioning for kindle fire but i need some guidance. Help is much appreciated
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
Usually this is a fairly bad indication but do this go to the mount section in twrp and make sure there are no checks in the boxes of data and system if so uncheck them, I know you said data and cache but this should have a check in the box then try a reboot also were you previously using cwmr? If so you may have been bitten by the bug a very unsightly one that generally means the death of your kindle unless you know how to repartition around a broken emmc. What did you do prior to this that caused this to happen?

Also energy is not the best for good mounting just saying...
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dean11:
I was using fireparted to backup my partition when my pc suddenly shut down. Thats when everything screws up. Also my data and cache are not able to check or uncheck. I hope theres a kind soul to guide me through this process :(
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
If you ask me I would say its toast but maybe someone knows a way to restore factory partitions I know many are looking for a solution for thier parts only kindle....
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
From what I understand...

fastboot oem format

...will rewrite your partition table to stock. And as long as you haven't messed with the partition sizes, your data will stay intact.

Enter:

shell cat /proc/partitions

To get a list of your current partitions and sizes to check to see if they even exist to begin with. And if so, it's likely just a case of broken or missing mountpoints.

Now, whether or not "fastboot oem format" will restore broken or missing mountpoints, I couldn't tell you for sure; I've never had to try it. But in your situation, it probably couldn't hurt to try.

You can also recreate mountpoints manually if needed.

[Edit:] It has just been explained to me that "fastboot oem format" won't do anything about mountpoints.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinfauns:
Assuming you can get into TWRP and run adb shell, execute the following command...

adb shell parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 unit b print

Note: version 2.2.0 is missing the parted binary, so you'll need to use 2.1.1

This will give you a detailed layout of your storage device and the filesystems for each partition. I'm running from memory here, but the right column should show the filesystem types it sees for that particular partition. For userdata (which is mounted as data) and cache, those should be ext4. If you don't see that, you need to remake those partitions.

adb shell mke2fs -T ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p10
adb shell mke2fs -T ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p11

Then you can repeat the parted command above and see if the commands worked. If the commands were successful, you can use the mount command or it's probably easier to just reboot into TWRP and it should do it automatically.

Please help!

Thank you in advance!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinfauns:
I don't know who or what did that to your partition table, but partitions 10-12 are not right. It looks like mke2fs is complaining because your userdata partition is only ~178KB. I'm also a bit concerned that you've extended the media partition as far as you have. You might have some additional problems there.

The easiest way for you to get started on a fix is to get into fastboot mode with FFF and run...

fastboot oem format

That will bring your partition table back to stock, so you can run those mke2fs commands to remake those filesystems on the two partitions. You'll also have to remake the media partition in parted. You can find some instructions on how to do that here...
