Are you using an updated manifest? I was testing the recent changes/branches on github but that ended up giving me a no-boot.
[HTC Rezound] hochoch:
Just found this which allows flash on Kit Kat and can confirm that it works on the Rez:

[HTC Rezound] tmanschuette:
Does that mean your throwing it in and sending out a new build? :) Definitely want to try it but I need screenshot.
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
Yeah I'm completely rebuilding the TACHYON build I was about to release lol
[HTC Rezound] tholmes8291:
Dang it!!
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
Trust me that's a good thing. My source was about 9 days old and tonight I uploaded all my tweaks and changes to github for staging to be used with the new source build currently underway which carries a slew of changes from cm as it is
[HTC Rezound] marcusdavidhall:
Out of curiosity, how long does it take you to I guess basically start from scratch on build???
[HTC Rezound] Uzephi:
Android run time works in CM code, as it works on the DNA CM11, don't know if it will work on the Rezzy though.

When you switch to ART, first boot you will need to wipe dalvik cache and it will take 15x longer to optimize apps, but it runs so griffin much faster.

Antutu score with dalvik: 19k

Antutu score with ART: 44k

Big benchmark difference on the DNA, most likely will be 2x "faster" on the rez also.

I haven't flashed CM11 on Red yet as I am heavily dependant on camera.
[HTC Rezound] darienms1986:
when i switch to art it reboots and optimizes automatically, and yes it is quite a bit faster, but causes fc's in gapps and so forth, are you saying i need to wipe dalvik? how would i do that as it asks to reboot to change?
[HTC Rezound] _litz:
Reboot to recovery after making the change to ART, wipe cache and dalvik, reboot.

Also, everyone needs to remember, this is so bleeding edge new, it's really stretching to call it alpha ...
[HTC Rezound] darienms1986:
sorry if i sound stupid, but when i make the switch the only way it sticks is to push ok and it reboots, should i let it reboot, then when it boots go to recovery and then wipe caches? apologize for the noobish questions
[HTC Rezound] Uzephi:
After the apps optimize, reboot to recovery and wipe dalvik and cache. That is what I did. Also be sure to flash the most recent gapps, the ones that were packaged a day or two ago work better with ART than a week ago.

ART is so new, most apps aren't made for it, causing a plethora of issues. It is a good move for Google to change to it instead of Dalvik, but it probably will not be until Q3 next year when enough apps work with ART to make it useful to use.
[HTC Rezound] darienms1986:
did you have fc issues with gapps or setup or gmail, anything like that?
[HTC Rezound] Flandro:
Can receive but not sms. Can't send or receive mms
[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:
what carrier?

---------- Post added at 12:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:34 AM ----------

the reason for the is you have to mount system folder as RW in terminal or terminal emulator....i too am a long time rom toolbox user
[HTC Rezound] Flandro:
Verizon
[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:
go intosettings and mobile networks and change ruim/nv subscription to the opposite of what its currently on
[HTC Rezound] Flandro:
That did it. Thanks
[HTC Rezound] darienms1986:
Thank you, but it still won't uninstall any apps for me :( must be doing something wrong.
[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:
what is your method / code for mounting as rw....apps from playstore wont work for 4.4
[HTC Rezound] darienms1986:
#!/system/bin/sh

busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:
just type this

su

mount -o rw,remount /system

also in developer options change root access to apps and adb as its only set for apps by default

also just to be safe.....make sure to install busybox via smart installer even if it says already installed
[HTC Rezound] darienms1986:
Already have it set for both, will try this out and report back, thanks

That worked! Thanks.

But what will installing busybox do?
[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:
ensures its fully up to date for more modern requirements

Glad it helped
[HTC Rezound] dtomlin:
I can't believe how quick you devs are ripping into this. Awesome work
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Where did you find the the most recent gapps?

Thanks.
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
It has issues with gapps as it's not completely ready. I haven't tried the whole wiping dalvik cache bit but will today and report back. I have a new build with some fixes I need to try out and see if there were any improvements or not

I could easily build an ION version but to do that would definitely say goodbye to any chances of having a camera. Maybe for those who don't care about camera I may toss out an ION version. What we really need is a working 3.4 kernel as it is ION and the 3.4 kernel is what works best with KitKat.
[HTC Rezound] tholmes8291:
Oh I trust you explicitly. I just hate waiting. :)
[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:
if your referring to setting up your pc first to build a rom and have the rom built...id say it takes at least a good hour or 2 installing linux on your pc along with the programs and things yo must install....for a repo init and sync anywhere between 1 to 4 hours depending on your internet (it downloads around 50gb of stuff to the pc) if you need commits or cherrypics this can vary from maybe 5 minutes to countless hours depending on what you want in your rom....then actually building the rom in a zip itself...which can build pretty quick if you set up ccache no longer than an hour tops
[HTC Rezound] Chucktr:
Success!!!

Neo,

Since you have heard about our failures... thought that we would tell you about our successes. Our latest problem was:

/bin/bash: xmllint: command not found

to which we got the answer at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1846651&page=20 msg #195

Once again we have had a successful compile that we have not tried... yet. -But- we have a good excuse this time. My wife is going into the Hospital for some minor surgery and I need to keep my phone working. Can't trust my work... yet.

Thanks for your time and help,

Chuck
[HTC Rezound] iamwalterwhite:
I can confirm that youtube works just fine in browser. I haven't tried in app. Email works, browser works. Scy said that screenshots and task changer previews are black, and I can confirm that. Pictures work, camcorder doesn't (which we already knew, just throwing that in). Overall this it more useful for me than PMEM because of the email app working. :good:

Edit: I have graphical glitches while in-app during screen rotation.
[HTC Rezound] Icedice34:
I'm having a hard time following two different builds in here. Is there a build with working camera, bluetooth, and Gmail app? Those are 3 things I use a ton.

Thanks,
[HTC Rezound] iamwalterwhite:
The ION version that Fly posted a couple of pages back has all of those things working. The camcorder does not, but camera, bluetooth and gmail app all work.

Edit: The PMEM version does not have working gmail app, but camcorder works. I've run both builds and can confirm that.
[HTC Rezound] Icedice34:
Thanks! So it sounds like both builds have issues. Which one is having the preview issues? It sounds like Neo is about to release a new build that's maybe a bit more stable?
[HTC Rezound] draklin17:
I installed this one and gapps. Then switched to ART, rebooted to recovery. I wiped Dalvik and Cache and installed the Banks Gapps. I haven't played with it much but i am constantly getting Gmail FCs. Did i miss something?
[HTC Rezound] iamwalterwhite:
The ION version is having preview issues. Aside from the bugs, the ROM is nearly 100% stable for me. I've had no FC's, few freezes, and rare problems. KK is more stable than anything else I've run on this phone. I'm sure that Neo will incorporate some more functionality, but I can't speak for him.

Edit: it's worth mentioning that I haven't switched over to ART. I'm still running on the dalvik runtime, but I don't believe that ART has caused any stability issues.

---------- Post added at 09:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 AM ----------

Try a clean flash WITHOUT flashing gapps then boot into the ROM, do your set-up, switch to ART, reboot to recovery, wipe cache/dalvik flash gapps, reboot system, and then you should be good.
[HTC Rezound] Talguy:
Out of curiosity how did you get the camera working with an ION build. DId you write a Hybrid PMEM and ION setup or is it all ION. FWIW, I don't care abotu camcorder or front facing camera. As long as the main camera is working I will be insatlling when its stable and out as a main release.
[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:
neo's build still has same issues as posted just has many tweaks to improve performance and a few other odds and ends for tweaks....cm11 still has these issues with a mass majority of devices and not just the rezound or even htc specific...it may take a little bit for most issues are ironed out....trust me the developers and myself chat all day long and all of us are always trying to fix these issues.... ION is very tricky and PMEM is a new issue on kitkat because it relies on a more ION based build...so alot of work and effor is going into all this...just will take a little while to iron out....the fact we've gone this far and fixed this much from our very first never released build is amazing.....in the original post you will see all the people neo thanks for making the rom possible....and that whole crew including myself is still putting alot of effort into it
[HTC Rezound] draklin17:
Thanks, that seems to have taken care of the issues. However I am still noticing screen tearing whenever i switch from portrait to landscape. I don't remember if that was already discussed or not.
[HTC Rezound] onthehole:

[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:

[HTC Rezound] tmanschuette:
Had to switch back to Carbon for awhile. Either it's just my phone, or kk is still very buggy.

I was on Flyhalf's build and:

The browser worked, to an extent. It didn't like to scroll and force closed often.

Any kind of scrolling through pages would cause serious lag.

Having 3 apps open would lag my phone to the point of uselessness. Sometimes I wasn't even able to open the task manager to kill them and would have to pull the battery.

Bluetooth sound was horrid. I use a little Bluetooth speaker when I am cleaning or working out, and it jumped and skipped so bad that I turned it off and left it that way.

Some data and WiFi problems have been noticed also. Not auto connecting, and my phone roaming when data is turned off.

I am really looking to the "ironed out" version of kk, and thanks to all the devs on Team Vigor for this build and Snuzzo for Carbon!
[HTC Rezound] galaxyfreak:
I'm LOL'ing while reading this thread. Blefish now came up with that patch and everyone went crazy. For a reason. But your guy, Chad0989 was first to make that gralloc hack more than a year ago.

But then he found about VilleC2, and PMEM + ION hack was forgotten, Chad sold his phone, and source for it was never released.

Incredible S, Sensation, EVO 3D, and many others are now looking for a way to get video decoding working together with hack. Someone should contact Chad..
[HTC Rezound] Hobox10:
This is pretty much the exact same problems I'm having, except I don't use bluetooth so I'm not sure if I would have bluetooth audio issues.

The most noticeable thing is that scrolling on pretty much anything scrollable has tremendous lag.

On top of his data problems, there seems to be a very specific one for anything that uses Voice input through google (voice-to-text texting, Google Now, etc) It will just tell me "cannont reach google servers at this time) despite having a data connection. I can go load any website before and after, the voice recognition just isn't working for me.

Also the youtube app is just about the only place video is working for me on flyhalf's build. Browser, Twitch TV app, etc don't work.
[HTC Rezound] bunchies:
What's weird is how I can play music normally but some other sounds are messed up, things like the twitter refresh sound for example it echoes but it shouldn't. And if I put in my headphones and Twitter refresh it plays the sound like 10 times :p lol
[HTC Rezound] iamwalterwhite:
I had the same problems with lag on Fly's ION build with ART enabled. I've switched back to dalvik runtime and haven't had the lagginess. Funny for me though, I get working video no problem through the browser and the youtube app.

Edit: I'm running Banks gapps.
[HTC Rezound] Hobox10:
I'm not running ART anymore, I switched back after day 1 and while it was a lot more usable, all the said issues are still prevalent. It was MUCH worse with ART.

I'm running whatever gapps these ones are:

Edit: How would I try running a different gapps without clean flashing the rom?
[HTC Rezound] iamwalterwhite:
You *should* be able to flash a new gapps package right over the one you're currently running. The thing that sucks is that if there's a problem, clean flashing is about the only to remedy it. You can always take a nandroid to revert if you have issues.
[HTC Rezound] scy1192:
Wipe /system, install the ROM zip again, then install the other gapps. Any gapps that were updated via the Play Store will still be there (in /data), so if you want those gone too, do an "uninstall updates" on them before wiping /system.
[HTC Rezound] Chucktr:
Include files and libs

Is there a list of the 'C' include files and libs that are used to build this thing?? I'm getting a successful build -but- not a successful install and run. Also, my final 'target' is coming out a different size than Neo's. This happened to me in 10.2 also. I have looked for a list but evidently I am not using the correct words, cause I can't find one... -or- there isn't one.

Thanks,

Chuck

That is not totally true. I did find one -but- some of the files are "older". What I really need is an updated list.

Never mind.... I finally found it on Wiki...
[HTC Rezound] Hobox10:
So I've had this glitch since early JB roms and I always forget to report it...

A lot of the phone calls I receive, the phone won't start ringing until the end of the call. What I mean is, I usually miss the call because it will begin to ring and then stop within about 2 seconds of starting. If I am quick enough to answer it, or I call the person back and ask, they say it rang like 5+ times for them.
[HTC Rezound] darienms1986:
You could always change the call ring delay

Edit- can't seem to find it anymore in the build.prop but you aren't the only one, I have that issue as well
[HTC Rezound] Chucktr:
Think I might be missing a step..

Hi there,

We have been struggling with the build for this device and think that we may have missed a step. Is it necessary to connect the ReZound to a PC and extract some files from it -before- performing the build?? An extract_files.sh command was mentioned but we have not found it.

Thanks,

Chuck
[HTC Rezound] _litz:
We do not use the extract-files.sh script. The files needed are already in our vigor repo on github.

Initializing and building cm11 should be as easy as this :

1. create an empty folder for your CM11 source tree (e.g. ~/Android/cm11-rezound)

2. place "initrepo.sh" from vigor/android on github in the folder

3. run the script. It will initialize and pull down the entire tree for you.

4. look inside the "vigor" folder that is downloaded as part of the source tree; there are sample scripts you can use there. "make.sh" will automate your build process. Make sure you apply any cherrypicks or patches you need prior to building.
[HTC Rezound] bunchies:
has the Camera fix for ION been put into the 4.3.1 branches yet?

i would like to build a 4.3.1 rom with ION till 4.4 is ready
[HTC Rezound] dlumberg:
I don't even see it in the cm11-ion or the cm11_ion kernel branches so I doubt it... btw why are there 2 cm11 ION branches?

#blameprotekk
[HTC Rezound] Chucktr:
About Building CM11

The following is in response to our message: Think I might be missing a step..

Our response to the above:

Now then, we have setup -and- built cm10 and cm11 targets for our ReZound. Only trouble is... even though the compile is "successful" the output does not work. We have followed all the steps and recently... at the request of Neo... changed from:

$ repo init -u git://github.com/vigor/android.git -b cm-11
to
$ initrepo.sh

However, it did not help. The package built by Neo is smaller than ours... 181.4MB vs 184.7MB. Believe that they should be the same size since it is supposed to be the same code. That was 'one' of the reasons for the question about the "extract_files.sh", we are trying to get something that not only compiles -but- also works.

Now then, with that thought in mind we have another question/problem. The following is the information that we have collected concerning the files needed for building this monster. As you can see there are "some differences" in the include files that we have available in our openSuSE setup. 'apt' is not available in openSuSE. IF any of the following is part -or- all of our problem please let us know where we might obtain the correct files... not using 'apt'.

Search and install following packages with YaST ([COLOR="Red"]Also look in "Provides".[/COLOR])
git
gnupg - ([COLOR="Red"]No have, but have (gpg2 - GnuPG 2) GnuPG 2 is the successor of "GnuPG" or GPG. It provides: GPGSM, gpg-agent, and a keybox library.[/COLOR])

mesa libs - ([COLOR="Red"]Have a bunch of Mesa-lib thingys.[/COLOR])
[COLOR="Red"] schedtool - This is also needed and is obtained from the 'Packman Repository'.[/COLOR]

It just shouldn't be this hard. I am missing something somewhere. Once that "missing piece" is obtained we will fly.

Thanks for your time,

Chuck
[HTC Rezound] stankopp:
I would suggest that you turn on vibrate in addition to ring...
[HTC Rezound] dlumberg:
Neo will often delete things like extra wallpapers from the rom to reduce the transfer size. It's also possible that CM has changed something upstream between the time that Neo last built and wjen you sync. If the rom builds and flashes and boots then enjoy your homemade rom :)
[HTC Rezound] jon7701:
I can confirm that Bluetooth tethering works. Not sure if anyone else tested this.
[HTC Rezound] _litz:
I will add, 181mb to 184mb is not much of a difference. You can get different package sizes on consecutive builds, easily.

The CM source tree is always changing, as is the AOSP tree.

When you say your build fails ... are you unable to build? If you are getting a package, then it should have successfully built.

What does the rom do when installed?

Do you get boot animation but no desktop? Desktop but it crashes?
[HTC Rezound] Hobox10:
That doesn't help. It will begin to vibrate when it starts to ring, and stops about 1 or 2 seconds later.
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
I'm glad that my thread has provided you with some amusement

The call ring delay is no longer listed in build.prop?

It was working but now it's not. We are looking into it

cm-11.0-ion was my branch, cm-11.0_ion is flyhalf's. Once we get the camera thing fixed again (and the source booting) I will be deleting my branch.
[HTC Rezound] darienms1986:
No I can't find it but I might of just over looked it. I usually set mine to 0 as I think the default is 3000
[HTC Rezound] Scott586:
Is this the best thread for this technical jargon? I honestly don't care "what" or "where" it's posted, as I can just skim past it and keep reading, but I wonder if a different thread might garner more attention and leave us simpletons to asking "when is the next update" type stuff. :cyclops::eek:;):cowboy:

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!
[HTC Rezound] Neo:
Technically it should be in a How-To build cm-11.0 help thread although one hasn't been created yet. That would be a good thread starter for someone who knows how to build the rom and is looking to become a Recognized Contributor one day (poke Poke you guys out there know who you are)
[HTC Rezound] Chucktr:
Hmmmm... realize that it is not much of a diff -but-, well, anyway... it DID compile and build:

cm-11-20131206-UNOFFICIAL-vigor.zip

-but- it would not complete installation. Yes... think we know your next statement. How long did we wait?? Probably not long enough. So, we will try again... this time -- time it and return with the results. We also thought that IF it compiled with what appears to be a success that it should work. Ah, but that is not always the case. At any rate give us an hour and we will be back... with the results.

Thanks to all,

Chuck
[HTC Rezound] drhile:
Getting the gist of it. Maybe I can coordinate with some people to get this going. It'll start with building pure CM, then expand to include toolchains like GCC.

EDIT: [GUIDE][CM-11.0] How-To Build CM-11.0 in a virtual environment is a work in progress.
[HTC Rezound] Chucktr:
Failed in the install...

No waiting on this one. It was the CM10.2 where we saw the spinning wheel forever. This one, CM11, fails on the Install.

set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard

Thanks,

[HTC Rezound] _litz:
Anytime you see the set_metadata_recursive error, that's the METDATA flag that's packaged in the build.

You either need a recovery that supports METADATA, or apply this cherrypick : http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/53559/
[HTC Rezound] Chucktr:
A late response...

Which one supports METADATA?? We are using TWRP 2.6.1.0(really don't want to change) and we'll have to read up on those cherrypicks. Haven't done one yet. -But- tis the Holiday season and I must go of to work... so I can afford to keep this fabulous phone. And that is not sarcasm... we really do like this phone and are glad that we found you all.

Thanks and Merry Christmas,

the only twrp i know that works with kk is 2.6.3.3 however some have done it with 2.6.3.0 which in my personal opinion 2.6.3.0 is the best available versin...why is it you dont want to update it?
[HTC Rezound] jon7701:
