Do you think I could do this with my wife's iPhone? She's got a 4 but needs a new one and they're offering the 4s at 99cents.

EDIT- Nevermind, the verizon iPhone 4 doesn't have a sim....DAMMIT!

Screen size :) I was already spoiled with my work phone's 5.5 inch so if my personal was any smaller, I guarantee I'd never use it.

Ok, now that I'm not distracted....

Rebuilding this rom. If there are no issues compiling, I will upload it in a few hours.

3/13/14 Build is out!

3/13/14 Build is out! Try it and let me know how it is. Dirty flash is acceptable. No camcorder recording/recorded video playback has not been worked on so it's not fixed yet.

-Neo
[HTC Rezound] bacon612:
This one looks good neo. Dirty flashed. Might be placebo but seems snappier out of the gate. Battery life is certainly better. Seems the clock issue is gone also. Will report back on this tomorrow after more use. As always, thanks.

Edit: Just noticed that although the radio network activity notification is working, the WiFi one isn't.
[HTC Rezound] degenxsn:
just as a question, when people are talking about camcorder and video playback not working, do they mean the front or rear camera? I am on 3/1 and my rear camera records and plays back video just fine but the front camera wont record video. the rear camcorder function only breaks if i try to use the front camcorder. then a restart fixes things.
[HTC Rezound] kodiak799:
Now what's interesting is if VZW takes away unlimited (I don't think they will), you're in a gray area being under contract. Technically you exploited a bug/glitch, and so they could claim you agreed to the new terms even if their system didn't switch plans as intended. However, you're not without counter arguments.

You'll have to take note of whether your upgrade "counter" updates to reflect a new contract or if it still shows you as month-to-month.
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
I actually thought that and it made me think about whether or not it would be worth paying full price for the wife's phone as we tether off hers most of the time. If they were to pull something like that, I would likely purchase internet service again for my home.

[HTC Rezound] hoovnick:
So as of today you still have your unlimited data?
[HTC Rezound] hoovnick:
So, just out of curiosity, I checked the best buy site to see what it would look like to upgrade the wife's line. It let me choose "keep existing plan."
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
Yes sir! Still shows unlimited on my account on-line and the new contract end date and device.
[HTC Rezound] hoovnick:
Sweet! What do you make of the screen shot I just posted?
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
Basically, at the very beginning it has that disclaimer in yellow stating that if you have unlimited, you will not be able to keep it with the upgrade. Past that point it assumes you are on a valid plan and let's you select "Keep my existing plan" all the way through checkout. The important thing to note is NOT to activate the included provisioned sim when the phone arrives which would be by simply turning the phone on.

Your screen shot is the same process I took with my wife's phone yesterday.

EDIT: Hold up. Does that phone you're upgrading have a sim? I only know this workaround to actually work if you have a sim. If not, then I wouldn't risk it because like I said... The disclaimer is at the beginning when you choose to upgrade or purchase a new line of service.
[HTC Rezound] hoovnick:
Ah, gotcha.

It does not have a sim. My idea however is to send you my spare rezound for digitizer realignment, switch her number to that phone. Then go through this process with that rezound.

Do you foresee any problems modifying the sim from the rezound to fit an iPhone? (I know, she just likes it better...lol)
[HTC Rezound] yhli17:
After you setup the phone, can you switch to the new sim card, or you have to stay with the old sim forever?
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
Provided the iPhone takes a sim but see, I've only done this once and I already had a hunch it would work as I'd seen others on the internet do it with the same phone.

As for the digitizer repair/re-alignment, I can't promise a swift repair as the last user who sent me a Rezound didn't get it back for over a month :/ I've been distracted and busy with a lot of different things but will definitely do the job for free. Just make sure it's not a device you need for daily use and just something you plan to keep around as a backup or spare. Plus if it's a factory seal breaking repair it's gonna introduce dust and bubbles between the digitizer and the lcd so there's always that to worry about too.
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
You can switch to "A" new sim card but not the one that came with it. The one that comes with it is provisioned to switch your plan. You can easily walk into a Verizon store locally and ask for a replacement micro sim for your in-hand Verizon phone. They will then pull your current account info over to it and you're good to go.
[HTC Rezound] pball52998:
Just flashed 3-13-14 build, was having issues out of the 2/27 build but kept forgetting to dirty flash the new one :$ will report back tomorrow on stabibility :$ Good job on everything neo!!
[HTC Rezound] hoovnick:
Gotcha. I'll do some more research on it to compare the sims.

I may see if we can do the "upgrade" online, then pick up in store. That way we can just attach her number to the rezound long enough for the "upgrade" to go through, then pick up the new phone and switch the sims on the same day.
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
So long as you're not purchasing it from a rep in store who is required to activate the phone for you on the spot. Where you pick it up won't affect the activation if purchasing from Best Buy on-line.
[HTC Rezound] jagrave:
Neo, I have unlimited, my wife doesn't. So you think I could go into best buy and use my upgrade on her line, then hardware swap back to mine? Some of them say it'll work for sure, and some say they don't know. What do you/yall think?
[HTC Rezound] pioneersohpioneers:
I was in the same predicament. As long as you're not using an upgrade that is on your phone's line, you will retain Unlimited data. So, if you upgrade your wife's line, swap her line to another phone, and then swap your number to the new phone, you will keep Unlimited data.
[HTC Rezound] jagrave:
So I couldn't transfer my lines upgrade to my wife's line, upgrade her line, then switch the phone to my line? I
[HTC Rezound] pioneersohpioneers:
I think if you do anything with the upgrade on your line, you lose unlimited data. Basically, your line is blocked for upgrades as long as you have unlimited data.
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
No. Each line has a specific upgrade "agreement" time. Verizon hasn't been allowing extended contracts past 2 years any more either. If her line was upgrade eligible however, you could simply upgrade her line purchasing whichever phone you like, then taking the hardware from her. In this case unfortunately, it would appear that only your line is up for upgrade and hers is not?
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
It is not blocked. You can definitely upgrade to a subsidized pricing for 2 year contract renewal but you are forced off the unlimited data plan unless you do like I did in the previous posts.
[HTC Rezound] jagrave:
So basically, when I've asked the reps at best buy and they say sure, we can do this and keep your unlimited, they're just trying to get me to do it so I'll lose unlimited? Geez. Lol
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
Get it in writing. Just know that even then, Verizon does not support the Unlimited Data Plan and they will not approve of retaining the plan for a subsidized upgrade.
[HTC Rezound] fudplayers:
Quick question Neo, is the download site down? I can't get a connection via phone or computer. Thanks for the hard work on the ROM!
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
No, it's up. Takes a good 40-60 seconds before it comes up though.
[HTC Rezound] iamwalterwhite:
Known issue. It's related to the current display problems. Open your recent apps and you will only see black screens instead of previews. Same with some apps. I believe somebody said that it's because of those apps reliance on HTML (somebody correct me if I'm wrong). The stock browser does the same thing (but 3rd party seem to work fine).
[HTC Rezound] dlumberg:
Has anyone looked at what chad was doing with the ION camera drivers before he moved on?

https://github.com/Chad0989/vigor_aosp_kernel/commits/jellybean-ion

iirc the main camera was working but the FFC wasn't because there were no other devices with the same camera module, maybe that's changed now and we could grab it from some other device...
[HTC Rezound] winnernet5000:
Hmm? iOS has been developing a lot faster than android since ICS (which was an amazing smartphone OS). That's not really a good example, a good example would be to take a 2 year old phone (iPhone 4s) and make it run iphone 5s software. aaaand believe it or not it does. It got the latest OS the same time all other phones did, instantly upon release (no carrier crap). It also runs google now very well. Why would you put the rezound on stock? This ROM runs waaaay faster than stock which is pretty bloated in comparison. I really do like this ROM, and the google now thing afflicts nexus 5 too. http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/nexus/PUNmDxzZulc/5895iGFIuUsJ. also: https://www.google.com/search?q=can...espv=210&q="can't+reach+google+at+the+moment" 12 million results is quite a bit of people having the same issue.

Again, I think the issue isn't the fault of the ROM, I was just pointing it out to people. This ROM is incredibly fast and brought new life to the rezound (no thanks to HTC!).
[HTC Rezound] tholmes8291:
Thanks. Yeah the way I read it I thought it fix the display issue in IMAP tho
[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:
developement of the community and not the company....again read up more on how apple actually runs on linux....ever since they started by kanging FreeBSD (unix platform) way back in the early days of computing....linux and android os itself is free...apple isnt

Edit: Also not to mention the freedom and multitude of choices you can get on an android....examples would be theming by color choice and in general, launchers, audio and speed mods such as viper4android and kernel/script enhancements...and i was saying a stock ics for the rezound would outperform an iphone of any sort anyday...even granted certain apps are being worked on...iphones are very similar with eachother in hardware....where as there are many choices and flavors of android....simply put theres just way more out there for one app to be compatible for all....which takes eons of coding to be cross compatible

There's this:

I know that he said that the fix was dirty to get the rear cam going, but I do believe that it was functioning before he left.

[HTC Rezound] winnernet5000:
http://www.anandtech.com/show/7335/the-iphone-5s-review/5 iPhones have always had pretty strong hardware (both in build quality and in chip performance), their GPUs for ex. have always been faster than android counterparts historically (now LG G2 et al. are finally making a serious effort in that category finally). I'm not sure how you can say a rezound on ICS would beat an iphone 5s...that's just objectively incorrect :S.

"Android" as consumers/we know it is becoming more and more closed source: http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2013...ntrolling-open-source-by-any-means-necessary/. I don't blame them, it basically makes it much harder for Samsung to fork android. The open source platform of android isn't very compelling, the value added by google's closed source additions is what makes it interesting imo (excluding the valuable contributions of the community). Without google now, google glasses, google maps, google music, hangouts etc. it is a lot worse.

I think you'd probably enjoy a jailbroken iOS device, but you seem to have your blinders on.

Anyway, just wanted to pass my thanks on to neo et al. for working on this ROM. It's incredibly fast, I just wish google now worked for me.
[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:
As much as i hate to admit it i once owned an iphone...jailbroken with quite a few things like winterboard and such...and ill be honest in comparison to me android has always been better for me...i like to get my hands dirty and have the freedom to make the phone look and act like i want as where an iphone is pretty much what you get out of the box...cant do much...which with an iphone it was so closed source that some apps werent backwards or forwards capable as the software was so closed source....and thats where you are blind with androids by the way...yes there is many low end androids for the less fortunate (deffinately something apple will never offer) but there has always been more powerhouse androids as well that have always been one step ahead of apple....way before the lg g2 and such....and your welcome from all of the devs that made this possible....myself included...

The stock browser seems a bit sluggish and quit itself on me, but chrome is stable and smooth. Gmail seems to work well though. Make sure to change the keyboard from AOSP to kit kat as AOSP at least for me was laggy/didn't respond well to touch input. Google keyboard (from playstore) was very good though.
[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:
yea i too use chrome browser....never been a fan of stock browser but this has been noted in op and is being worked on

Did you flash the kernel extraced from the ZIP file, since you're still s-on?
[HTC Rezound] pball52998:
Okay neo, great work! :good: this version of CM seems good, a lot better than the 2/27 build. The only thing I've found a little weird, is when listening to music, when I go to the home screen it starts playing from the speaker. Then I click on a app and it goes back into my headphones. That was there in the 2/27 build but not before. I think the only thing else I could find is now my messaging notification doesn't go away like it usually does/previous versions, like when I press quick reply or view the notification stays, those are the only things I've had issues with. As said before better battery life and more stable! Great job Neo!!! :D

I think it's the Google now launcher if you go to settings/ apps /all and look for Google now launcher clear defaults then hold the home button and clear all your recently opened apps and it will ask you what launcher you want to use then select trebuchet and always i don't really notice a difference between the two launchers but that worked for me
[HTC Rezound] magwua:
I am getting the same error and same situation as you (S-on, twrp) i went back to the 3-01-14 build and i don't get that error message. I did not flash a new boot.img file this time either.

Being S-on, you really should :)

I cannot reproduce this. I tried different ways of returning to the home screen, but the headphones behaved normally each time; I could not get it to do what you described. I was using Dsub for playback. What music player were you using, and did you try any other?

If it matters, my upgrade path was 0127 build to 0301 build to 0313 build, dirty flashing.
[HTC Rezound] power950:
If you want to reproduce it use Google now launcher clear your default launcher trebuchet most likely return home and select Google now launcher play some music with headphones now every time you go to googles launcher the music will play through the speaker
[HTC Rezound] Chucktr:
The NO wire trick...

Well, we used it... with half-assed success!! Probably more our fault than theirs -but- the two things good about it were;

#1) We got S-Off without a wire trick.

#2) We both learned, and found out, how much we know, and don't know, about these Smartphones.

What we used was probably our reason for our "mishaps". In the beginning it is stated, unfortunately like the 'wired' version, that a 32-bit Ubuntu Linux -is preferred. Well, we bullheadedly, went ahead and used our openSuSE 64-bit Linux. We had/have 32-bit libs installed -- as they said that 'may' work. On top of that we had CM11.0 installed on our ReZound.

We followed the instructions on the WebPage -and- it was looking good... until it got to pouring (2). Then we started getting HTC White Screen and CyanogenMod Wheel... alternating on the phone in a mini boot loop, with repeated rows of dots on our PC. After an hour plus, I killed it. Then the fun started... trying to "Restore our Phone"!!

We could not, successfully, get anything to Re-Load on our phone. Finally, as a last resort, we decided to use the RUU from Android Police. It changed our hBoot back to 2.27 and our radios back to 2.22 -BUT- it Re-Stored our phone! We then used the Global Firmware Update to get back to 2.28 hBoot and 2.23 radios.

Oh... did we forget to mention that we got S-Off!! Without a wire. Probably would have been much cleaner and smoother had we just broke down and used 32-bit Ubuntu Linux in the first place. -But- we like our openSuSE and "try" to use it for everything... that we can. Possibly we didn't get 'all' of the 32-bit libs installed -or- something like that. IF there is a next time we will probably try again. Till then we will just enjoy our ReZound 'with' S-Off.

Ah, the SD card It got wiped!! Now please notice that we were NOT using the correct system and that could be the reason. At any rate, it got wiped. Wiped so bad that my PC, neither one, would recognize it!! AFTER I got my phone back in operation, on a whim, I put the SD card back in my phone and tried to format it. It did!! I was then able to take it out of the phone, place it in my PC and copy over the saved version. All is well... now.

Thanks to the devs... never liked poking a wire around in my phone. It was great and kudos to the developers of the wire trick. -But- this way, PERFORMED CORRECTLY (Use 32-bit Ubuntu), seems to be safer.

Thanks,

Chuck
[HTC Rezound] dwasifar:
So it's specific to the Google launcher. Well then, that's fine for me; I'm using Nova. Thanks for the additional info.

I tested it specifically because I use my phone as a music player in the "quiet car" on the train, and random bursts of music would have earned me nasty glares. So I can report that this problem does not occur with Nova Launcher.
[HTC Rezound] replica9000:
Good to know there's more than one way to stay on VZW's unlimited plan.
[HTC Rezound] dwasifar:
I used the juopunutbear "wire trick" S-off on three Rezounds and it went smoothly with all of them. But I resisted the urge to use a different distro than recommended, and booted my Debian machine from an Ubuntu live CD to do the job. The unlimited.io website is really firm on the point: "Use 32-bit Ubuntu if you want to be sure it works." I think the rumrunner site says something similar, and though I'm ordinarily eager to experiment, I didn't want to risk putting my phone into a state I didn't know how to recover from.
[HTC Rezound] Chucktr:
NORMALLY I have the same feelings. Don't risk it. -But- with the help of Neo, _litz, Flyhalf and Wildstang - directly -and- indirectly, I have become bolder. During this "experiment" I thought I lost my phone. -But- reason prevailed and we pursued that knowledge that has been bestowed upon us, and others, by the a fore mentioned individuals. And believe me it was literally wiped!!

Thanks for your reply,

Chuck
[HTC Rezound] Huachipato:
You make it sound like the battery is removable.... Everything I read says that is not the case though. Is the battery removable?
[HTC Rezound] stankopp:
I used the Run Runner "no wire" trick with 64-bit Windows 7 and without incident.
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
You're correct, It is not removable. I simply re-ran through my process from memory under the pretense of safety. The point you should take away from it is this: Do not to turn the phone on or it will activate you provisioned SIM.

Thanks for the catch ;) I'll modify my original post to to better convey my intent.

I forced support for CDMA. May re-introduce global support in the next build.

For now, if you want the 3/13 to work on a non CDMA network, add ",NV" to the end of the line in the build.prop that has RUIM

Thanks, but that doesn't appear to do it for me. I changed the line

ril.subscription.types=RUIM

to

ril.subscription.types=RUIM,NV

When that seemed to do nothing except enable the menu in Settings -> "Wireless & Networks"/"More..." -> "Mobile Networks" -> "CDMA Subscription," I then changed the build.prop line

ro.htc.device.slot1 = RUIM

to

ro.htc.device.slot1 = NV

also to no avail.

I'm SIMless on Page Plus--completely CDMA only. I've gone back to 3/1 again. Up until the 3/13 build, CM11 is the only 4.4 ROM that's allowed me to have working mobile data.
