Did you undervolt at all? If you did, try upping it to -25 mV or so, that might help with stability. (Some phones are more sensative than others when it comes to undervolting)

Other than that, there is one last thing you can do. First nandroid and backup all your stuff. Then, reboot into bootloader and do fastboot boot recoveryname.img where in this case, recoveryname.img is the stock recovery (you can download it here)

http://androidforums.com/rezound-al...ys-noob-friendly-root-guide-start-finish.html

Then, do the complete wipe process, but also do "clear storage". This is basically like a factory reset except a little more thorough (make sure you backup before).

Good luck, Hopefully this helps.

[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
I guess you've been lucky. I wiped my SD and internal storage, used Scott's clean wipe script, installed the rom fine, attempted to switch to the latest funkybean and I could never get past the boot animation after that, even wiping and restoring didn't help...

Another thing I've noticed which has happened to me in the past on AOSP based roms is my internal storage disappears and the only way I've found to fix it was RUU the phone.
[HTC Rezound] mpguzman04:
I assume you successfully booted after installing the ROM, set everything up, then attempted to flash Funkybean kernel? Also, did you wipe dalvik cache & cache right after flashing the kernel, prior to rebooting?

Snuzzo also mentioned it in his OP on the funkybean thread but it deserves repeating. DO NOT wipe dalvik/cache prior to flashing custom kernel. I have made this mistake before and it has put me in a bootloop.

[HTC Rezound] djkeller3:
Same thing happened to me. I tried everything short of doing another clean flash over, but since I didn't have time for a complete setup fresh, I restored a backup of 2.3 which is completely stable for me. If you can manage setting everything back up, a clean flash-over is what you'll probably have to do to get 2.5 back up again.
[HTC Rezound] mpguzman04:
I would recommend doing a backup every few days, preferably when the phone begins to run slowly/start lagging. Prior to a reboot, boot recovery and run a backup. This way, since the bootloop seems to commonly be brought on by a reboot, you will have a backup of your most recent system/setup. Always good to get in a habit of backing up often. You can either delete or move previous backups to a computer or external hard drive if you have an abundant amount that you would like to save but not have space taken up on your phone.
[HTC Rezound] pogibry:
Thanks! I did not know that. This has honestly been my favorite ROM on this phone and I really don't want to leave it.
[HTC Rezound] Tidewater:
The not wiping of the dalvik is just a suggestion because the kernel script does it for you. Its never a bad idea just to wipe it anyway before flashing a new kernel because not clearing the dalvik and flashing a new kernel can lead to really bad things if installing a kernel that does not do it for you automatically

Google Now Problem

The voice recognition on google Now searches have been noticeably slower on 2.5. I reflashed after a clean wipe about 3 times and still running into the same issue. It was pretty smooth on 2.3 but the difference is kind of a downer. Is there a fix to it?
[HTC Rezound] brenuga:
Snuzzo said his latest version no longer wipes dalvik cache for you. That's why its good to be in habit of doing it manually.

I have never boot looped by wiping dalvik cache. I leave normal cache alone unless I'm clean wiping everything before a new ROM.

Dalvik cache almost has to be wiped at some point in flashing between, say stock aosp kernel and funky kernel because they are different at basic system level.

You can wipe dalvik before or after kernel flash, but if you are s-on, you probably won't get a chance after because boot loader will flash ph98img then reboot without going back to recovery.

---------- Post added at 12:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:03 AM ----------

You can flash gapps package, which has the offline voice recognition package. Neo strips the offline search files out for space reasons and also, its not needed if you have a good data connection. But u can put it back by flashing gapps. Just make sure to update Google search from market after you do that.

Going directly from a Sense rom to a tricked out AOSP must feel like jumping onto the 500 track I imagine :)

I already feel the sludge switching from an unmodified stock aosp rom to this one so I know it must feel pretty nice coming straight from sense.

sorry my bad. I was never enabled some options in the widget I use so my calendar never appeared. I'm running the latest and greatest until you release today ro tomorrow update. Everything is running smooth and seeder really stepped up the performance of this ROM.

[HTC Rezound] Divine_Madcat:
Neo, one more quick question for you. I notice in your FAQ, you say we should be using the latest radios, but you then list the original ICS radios, and not the later, global update 2.22.10.0801r (which I am currently running). Should I try to go back one level, to the earlier radios, or do you think it is OK?
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
I'm actually using the first Global ICS radio leak and my jb roms run fine on my phone. That part of my faq's is outdated. If you'd like you can update to the latest but I'm not sure how much of an improvement (if any) you will achieve.
[HTC Rezound] Divine_Madcat:
Ah, OK. Last I checked 2.22.10.0801r was the latest I could find; I won't mess with anything though, since all seems to be working OK otherwise.

Can't wait for the update today. Will we have to wipe, or do you think we can flash over OK?

I have been on 2.5 since 16 May 2013 and have had 0 problems, great connection speeds and day-long battery life. I cannot speak to the radios and hboot, since I chose this time to update to the latest (s-on) prior to flashing 2.5. I did a factory re-set after updating, flashed the ROM using Amon Ra, flashed the previously extracted kernel (boot.img) from the 2.5 zip file,using fastboot and all has been well. I just restore all of my apps from the Google store and all my contacts are automatically restored. This has never failed for me.
[HTC Rezound] Lazy8:
Google search is realllllly slow. This is a bug I've had since running 2.5 when it came out.

I have had 0 issues with this ROM! I am on the latest radios after updating from neos radio flash. I am rooted s-off. Use amon-ra. And I never wipe my external SD when flashing. I clean my dalvik cache now and then with tb..it occasionally finds an unneeded file to delete but other than that my setup seems no different from others. I do not under volt and have the default kernel.

I also use nova launcher...do you uninstall apex? Those of you using nova?
[HTC Rezound] brenuga:
Flash the latest gapps package and it will probably fix it. Neo takes out the Google now offline search files to save space.

Assuming of course it isn't a problem on googles end as others have been reporting same issue. Neo hasn't dine anything differently with 2.5 vs 2.3 when it comes to gapps
[HTC Rezound] wiredwrx:
I am on 2.4 with the Funky Kernal. I have resorted to making nightly nandroids using Orange Backup. Several mornings, when attempting to boot up for the day, I get stuck at the spinning android. Sometimes I am able to somehow get to the desktop, but it asks me to reset up the device. Sometimes my settings/desktop is intact, sometimes not. Thanks to the nightly backups, I can restore easily.

I THINK I have determined it is a battery voltage thing. I am pretty careful about charging my phone to prolong the battery. So, often times at night, when I turn of the phone, I may be under 20 or 15 percent battery. I almost always decided not to charge overnight for fear of overcharging the battery, and because I don't think 20 or 15 percent is low enough to charge the battery. I want to wait till under 10. I notice, that when I don't charge before I go to sleep, when I start the phone the next morning, I can't get past the spinning android. In fact, one day, I booted fine, it shows about 20 percent. I installed something, did some stuff with the phone, so that it dropped to about 10 or 15, and then tried to reboot, and boom, spinning android. Got to the office, plugged her in, and was unable to boot. Restored the nandroid from the night before, and viola, it booted.

I have been unwilling to test my theory more fully, but may just do that because of the numerous reports of bootloops. It also seems as if someone posted something about swapping batteries, and if the battery going in is low on juice, it may cause the issue.
[HTC Rezound] lancasterv3:
I have had these boot-loops with a fully charged battery before so personally I do not think that is the issue. I do know that even after restoring a backup the boot-loops become much more frequent in my case which could explain the coincidence of it possibly being related to voltages.
[HTC Rezound] sn2hotty:
I'm wondering if it IS an issue on Google's end. Google Search (Now) is very slow on my N7 as well.

[HTC Rezound] brenuga:
Sounds like turning off Hotword Detection (which is not possible on Infection anyway cuz Neo took out the bloated lib that makes it respond to "Google") may help some with the loading time. The first tip, reducing the # of apps Google Now integrates with, may help with searching.
[HTC Rezound] djkeller3:
I use Nova and Next Launchers and I uninstalled Apex only because I wanted to keep Nova and Next installed and fully set-up so I can alternate between them and didn't want 3 launchers set up. I haven't noticed any performance degradation with the operating system, ROM, launcher or Google Search by keeping both loaded. Apex is a fine launcher, but Nova is a perfect fit for me and Next is just friggin unbelievable.
[HTC Rezound] Lazy8:
I tried all the options with regard to Google search using the persistent search bar...none worked...it is dog slow!

This wasnt the case with 2.4 or 2.3.

Only thing I haven't tried is flashing gapps. Where and what ver. Should I flash get this from?
[HTC Rezound] djkeller3:
Yep, you are correct...hadn't thought about it, but I'm on 2.3 and the latest G-Apps, so that might be why I've not seen the sluggish searches with 2 fully loaded launchers.
[HTC Rezound] kodiak799:
My search is sluggish, and I deleted Apex and also Google Now (disabled it in Google settings, to be redundant).

Thoughts on recent issues and 2.5

Hey all, couple things I've been keeping up with...

This past weekend I noticed the google play services/store were EXTREMELY slow (50k/sec and below) on my 4G service here in San Diego, CA. While on WiFi, it was normal speed (so Verizon must have been doing something with their routing). It has since cleared up for me and all 4g services are speedy again here... so if you're experiencing slow google apps, try switching to wifi to hopefully pinpoint the network as your issue.

Also, I recently had a post about poor battery stats such as sleeping for a while, turning on the phone and then seeing the battery % rapidly tick down. I then experienced the boot-stuck (spinning android) issue everyone has been talking about during a regular phone reboot.

I have since went back to amonRa 3.15 (since it never gave me trouble, and my previous infection 2.5 flash was by using TWRP) and the battery stats have been remedied and battery life is what I would expect. As for the boot-stuck issue... I'm not sure, but I took everyone's advice here and am doing daily nandroids to be safe.

keeping an eye on things, we'll get to the bottom of it!
[HTC Rezound] rave_nick:

[HTC Rezound] sn2hotty:
For me, the issue isn't the startup time with Google Now- it actually starts quickly, and recognizes my speech accurately and quickly. The problem for me is the time it takes for the actual search results to appear. After my speech is recognized, and even after I type a search into the search box, it sometimes takes close to 60 seconds, sometimes longer, for the search results to appear. That's what makes me think it's a problem on Google's end. A bit embarrassing when you're trying to show off Google Now to an iSheep! LOL
[HTC Rezound] mavpts:
My whole issue with Google now is having one more app running. I like the quick search box where I can go back and edit older searches if I don't like the results I got. That and opening in a standard browser window makes my life simpler.

[HTC Rezound] etieseler:
Unfortunately this morning I got stuck at the Spinning Android. I have hot/cold booted many times since installing and never had this problem, however this time I did. I did a reboot because the Network speed seemed to be much lower than it should be (Based on the numbers the phone reports) and the general speed of the phone was very lagish too. I did a shutdown, then in a minute I powered it back on, and then I saw the spinning android. I let it sit there on my 30 minute commute to work and it never got past it. I rebooted several times and it has not gotten past this. I wiped Dalvik and regular cache, I reset battery stats, I fixed permissions, but still stuck. I think I might have to re-flash 2.5 but I didn't get a recent backup and have some notes I don't want to loose... I think I may not have a choice...

Has anyone else that got stuck at the boot animation gotten past it? My question applies to those of us who have been running 2.5 for a while without issue then got stuck at the boot animation after making no changes. Hopefully I can recover from this to at least make a backup before reinstalling.

Another question, what does a nandroid backup do?
[HTC Rezound] lancasterv3:
i can not remember if it was this thread or or fly's cm thread but a member stuck in the loop was able to mount /data and navigate via TWRP to data/system . Once in system they deleted everything in the folder and the phone booted they did have to run through the initial setup and certain app settings again. I have not tried this yet but if it happens again I definitely will.

a nandroid is basically a carbon copy of your ROM/settings that you are backing up. If you mess something up or flash something and you're ROM doesn't boot you can flash you're backup and you're up and running again. its basically a saftey net you can fall back on.

here is the original post from fly's thread

Got my bootloop issue again. Since I know the issue's in /data I rebooted to TWRP, mounted /data, and went to the file manager. I didn't want to lose my apps or app data, so I decided to peek into /data/system. Deleted the entire directory and it booted up. Some of my settings were reset (default keyboard, default launcher) but that's understandable. The important thing is I didn't need to wipe it and I can narrow it down further if it happens again. Hopefully not at 4:30am though.

if this works for you give member scy1192 a thanks, good luck.

Thanks for the information. I will have to take more nandroid backups, for CYA reasons....

Anyhow, I found something interesting. I use the Amon RA recovery and toggled the USB mounting setting. I was going to use this to browse to system-data and remove everything from there, in an attempt to try what you saw to see if that works, however when I mounted the internal storage, my computer wanted to format it, as if nothing exists in there. I have been able to mount this in the past, but it looks like all the data is missing from it. I wonder if this is what caused my boot loop? Anyone else see anything like this?

Decided to try and replace the boot animation. Make the appropriate changes, but got stuck in a boot loop. Anyone been successful changing the boot animation on 2.4 or 2.5? I actually made the change manually, by dropping a mootanimation.zip into the system/media folder, and changing the read/write attributes. The animation played, so I am pretty sure I did it correctly, I just never got past the animation. Just sat there like the spinning android boot problem.

This also tells me it isn't a Google problem but a ROM problem or app problem in someway.

I tried this as well...the initial search takes forever...but once open searches are how they used to be..fast.
