[HTC Rezound] Chucktr:
Update has been Posted: CyanogenMod 11.0(09-02-14)

Hello to all you ReZounders,

The latest creation has been posted for your downloading enjoyment. Preliminary testing has been done and it will:

Make phone calls - Pushing buttons and Voice calling.

Send Text Messages

Show phone history

Maps will show where you are

Camera will take pictures

Camcorder is still limited in operation

Netflix will work with the Xposed Install

Bluetooth works ... in fact the voice call was made using it.

Hangouts works ... I use them to chat with my fellow team members.

By the way ... It appears to be faster.

I'm on Verizon here in the USA and it is CDMA. Therefore, I'm sorry but I can not help anyone with GSM problems. Have to see IF our team can enlist someone from a "foreign" country.:p Hmmm... or from T-Mobile, I think they have GSM.

I use the Next 3D Launcher -and- Banks Minimum Gapps. 7-2

My apps and contacts were restored from Google. (that was broke for a couple of days:crying:)

By the by ... "Our" ReZounds will handle the 3D stuff in the Launcher... IF you are interested.

I also use the "Next time" screen background and the Next Widget Switcher.

Thanks and have a good day,

-Chuck

24 hours, or so, later: Has been working fine for me and I even think it is faster.

===================================================================

Sep 3rd, 2014 / 7:58pm Arizona USA time. Testing battery use. At this time I unplugged it from the charger. It has a 100% charge. Now then most of the time will probably be idle ... unless I get some Hangouts from my team members. From now till tomorrow that will be all the real activity. I will occasionally look at the phone to see how it is progressing. I will make the peeks a long one so we can see how the battery handles the screen on. I am NOT making any special settings -but- I do use Battery Doctor and I am using that to help monitor. I am NOT using any of the apps special savings settings... JUST monitoring.

9:18pm -- at 98%

2:40am -- at 84% -- Even tho it is sitting idle; WiFi, Mobile Data and Bluetooth are on. -AND- "Network Monitor" app shows Random activity.

3:56am -- Or around that time started chatting with other Team Members on Hangouts.

4:44am -- 79% --- Yeah we're all crazy.

8:15am -- 71% --- Even though I did not reply ... still received all the messages that were being passed. Did turn off the notification though. It can get annoying when you are trying to concentrate. Sometimes my fellow team members have a lot to say.

8:52am -- 68% --- I wanted to inform you all that I have an Extended Battery... which it said in my signature. However, it didn't say how large. I found that there are numerous "Extended Batteries" for our ReZounds. I added size to my signature. On top of that... my Battery is 2 years and 8 months old!!! Also, just before entering this I had to turn off and open up my Rez. I couldn't remember how big it was.:o That's when I found there are numerous sizes.:silly: Anywho, this adds some startup drain to the time period between 8:15 and 8:52.

9:09am -- Still at 68% --- It was just sitting idle while I typed the previous lengthy verbiage. However, I did look at the screen a couple of times and let it sit and show until it blacked out on its own. So we get "extra" screen time. During my "Normal" day to day use I will use the Power button to turn off the display.

4:20pm -- 55% --- and I've gotten a number of hangout pages during this time.

4:55pm -- 52% --- still going.

9:25pm -- 44% -- That's over 24 hours and I still have almost half of my battery left. Granted, I did not do a lot -but- all those Hangouts have to amount to something.

Sep 5th, 2014 / 7:13am Arizona USA time -- please notice the date and time. I still have 18% of battery left!! I forgot to plug it in..:o

Sep 7th, 2014 / 7:38am Still Arizona USA time -- 100% charged -- OK I lied -- doing another Battery test.

This time WITH the latest build. CyanogenMod 11.0(09-05-14) with Java-7 :p

Bluetooth was/is enabled.

9:14am -- 96% -- Just got back from McDonalds. While there I tested the WiFi and Mobile Data connections. OK

11:33am -- 89% -- Just enabled Hangouts. Prior to this, just sitting idle.

Voice calling from Bluetooth works.

Text messaging works.

11:47am -- 87% -- Did the above testing. Voice call and Text.

11:55am -- 86% -- Sent a chat message via Hangouts to my team to get some messaging going.

1:27pm -- 77% -- Just spent time correcting contacts. Had triples and more of the same number.

*** And it is almost 6 hrs now. ***

4:16pm -- 64% -- In these paste few hrs I have been playing with the Camera. Took some screen shots and messed with the settings.

5:55pm -- 56% -- Was sitting idle. Now taking it with me to visit some friends for dinner.

9:22pm -- 17% -- Back home... and on charge. Whilst at the friends house the phone was used to lookup jicama on the Net -and- I played some of the mp4's of Paul McCartney that I recorded a few weeks ago. So it was used.

21:22pm - 7:38am = 13 hrs & 44min and still had some battery left.

This will definitely be my last battery test. I either have the best ReZound made -or- the best battery -or- I just don't use it enough. But "some" of the complaints have been about the phones sitting idle. I believe that my testing experienced a little of both. The first set of tests was with the 8-25 release and the second set with the 9-05 release.

Oh, and one last thing, which was mentioned above -but- I want everyone to take note -and- take notice:

The above two series of Battery tests were performed with a 2 year 8 month old Battery.
