[HTC Rezound] rgnicholas:
I'm not arguing with you at all because I know how touchy it is to get the Rez programed for PagePlus. I did it on my Rez using DFS as you said. In my case, I have had some weird things happen as well while flashing ROMs. I have probably flashed at least 75 different builds from ICS through KitKat. What I ended up doing was updating the HBOOT & Radios to the latest versions... moving to TWRP for my recovery... then for daily driver, I pulled my SIM and went with LiquidSmooth 2.7 JB.

However, I do get the itch to try new ROMs like CM11 and Evervolv 4. With CM11, there is no setting to change the ROM from SIM to NV... however, in Evervolv 4, there is but it is in a bit of a obscure place. Going off of memory, look in the system settings near the top, under Data Usage, select "More..." and under this menu there is a sub-menu called Mobile Networks or Mobile Plan... something like that. Anyway, keep poking around and you'll find the setting to allow you to set it to NV... give it a minute and it will switch over and your have a signal. In my case, I got voice, SMS and data for everything but MMS. The devs are working on a fix for us non-SIM people. Maybe it'll get resolved soon.

Hope this helps some.
[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
You need to switch the radio subscription to NV mode. You do NOT need CDMA workshop or DFS to do this.

settings -> click more under data usage -> mobile networks -> CDMA subscription. Change it to NV.

On a side note. You guys used up all my bandwidth! lol My billing cycle is *supposed* to go from the 28th to the 28th, so I have a note into my hosting provider to fix it asap.

Native Printing

My native printing was not showing my cloud printers. Figured out I needed to install a newer version of google cloud print,, it was not available in the Play Store.

Here is a link if anyone is interested.

[HTC Rezound] snpiee:
I do see the settings to switch between NV and RUIM. Is this the same as changing to NV Only in CDMA Workshop? Anyway, this doesn't help me. I still need DIAG mode so I can connect using DFS or CDMA Workshop to setup my phone number, etc. Seems like i have to go back to ICS rom to do that. Too bad I cant use this ROM, because as soon as I flash it back it will delete all my phone settings. So seem like at this point the only way for me to use this ROM with working phone is to figure out how to enable DIAG mode on this ROM. Its probably easy for Verizon people since all they have to do is dial *228 and their phone is activated but not us P+ folks who have to do it manually in DIAG mode.
[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:
well i know for me (a GSM ONLY User) after every reboot with DFS the flashes never stuck and could not get my 3g or 4g fixes to work or stick....only in cdma workshop or its free nv reader/writer program would it stick....also as for hboot...if your on hboot 2.27 your radios will show as 2.22........if your on hboot 2.28 you will have the 2.23 radios
[HTC Rezound] snpiee:
Well what makes me lose all the modem information? Is it the wiping of partitions before the flash or the ROM flash itself?
[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:
whats your methods of wiping and what recovery....also just for sng's flash a stockish sense rom and read your nv in diag mode...if it doesnt say what you had flashed with DFS before then it deffinately didnt stick....ill link you to the free nv reader writer program
[HTC Rezound] rgnicholas:
I believe that I am right when I say that flashing a ROM will not change the radios or hboot... what is happening to you is that the Evervolv ROM is looking in the wrong place to get it's info... it starts out looking at the SIM info... when you switch it to look at the NV info (which should be programed into a chip on the phone, the thing you did with DFS), the ROM will then pull in the appropriate NV detail and get a Verizon signal and you will be off to the races. You are not losing your "modem" info at all by flashing a ROM. Make sense?
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
Can someone mirror?
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
If kkozma doesn't mind I can probably mirror it somewhere.
[HTC Rezound] snpiee:
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

You are right! The rom WAS looking in the wrong place for phone info. When you first suggested that I should change the CDMA subscription to NV in menu/settings/more.../mobile networks/CDMA subscriptioion, I did do it but did NOT restart the phone. So it just hit me and I restarted and my phone information is now correct. Voice/SMS/MMS/3G ALL WORKING! Thank you guys both!

Before flashing a ROM I usually wipe: DATA, SYSTEM, DALVIK, CACHE, ANDROID SECURE. I used to use AmonRA, but lately been using TWRP Touch Recovery. Whats the free nv reader/writer program?
[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
Hang tight everyone. Uploading to a mirror now.
[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
Rom and gsm/cdma patches have been uploaded to a mirror. Links in the op have been updated.

I did not mirror the gapps. Search xda for the banks gapps and user those.
[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:
its taken from CDMA workshop and only meant for nv reading and writing
[HTC Rezound] El Schisne:
I can confirm that data now works for those of us on a SIM-less CDMA provider (in my case Page Plus) after changing the setting in Mobile Networks from RUIM to NV. Thanks, kkozma!
[HTC Rezound] rgnicholas:
Ok... now you have my attention. Which build are you on and did you do anything other than switch to NV in the settings? Also, does MMS work for you? The last time I checked it, it didn't work for me (also a PP customer)
[HTC Rezound] El Schisne:
The most recent build has working data for me. The one before that had no working data, so I figured out how to make it work in stock CM11. In the current evervolv build, all I did was change the RUIM/NV setting and reboot.

MMS has not worked for me since flashing to Page Plus--not even in Sense. In my case, I don't think it's ROM specific.
[HTC Rezound] ehcan:
This Rom breaths new life to the Rezound on GSM. Mine has been languishing in the drawer until now. It has been a joy to use KitKat on thus phone. Such an amazing smooth experience like I have never had.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
Hi. I currently had my Rezound sent out for JTAG service and will be receiving it shortly. The service was performed on the 27th-28th Jan and completed the day of the 28th and shipped out to me. I've been trying to read everyones threads in this forum to see if I'll be running into any surprises once I receive my phone back. It's been down since the 12th and I can;t wait to get it up and going! I'm coming from a bricked device that had this rom directly flashed. Will my Rezound have the global capabilities since having the CDMA patch installed? When I sent the link to this forum to JTAG the GSM patch was blank so I think CDMA was installed. Now i'm reading as of the 30th a new one was mirrored and if that's the case do I have to flash it? I read reports in regards to issues relating to simultaneous voice and data gets cutoff? I've heard wonderful things about this ROM from other XDA members. I want to make sure I can use this phone overseas in Europe. Thank you! Please refer to the following fourm as it explains more in detail my Rezound and the efforts I went thru to try and get it unbricked using an Apple Mac as I have no access to windows. And to answer your question yes I'm S-Off now. Thank you! :) :good:
[HTC Rezound] rgnicholas:
El Schisne, I am afraid that in this case, it is ROM specific. kkozma has been working on getting it going for us. I believe once that is accomplished, this may become a new dd for me. I can verify that in the process of flashing the phone to PP, it is a tricky process... my phone has had all capabilities (including MMS) on ICS & JB (both Sense and otherwise) However, I "think" that in the past when I left my Verizon SIM in the phone, some ROMS may have grabbed some settings from it. I now use the phone with no SIM and do not even get the "SIM not present" message. The process of flashing to PP was tedious but considering the savings on monthly bills, I am still glad that I did it.
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
Is the card assignment different from JB? I distinctly remember a swap from ICS - - > JB.

My name's Harold and I'm a flashaholic....
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
It's the same as JB. The OP stated he was still on ICS.
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
Looked good after flash at first (Dalvik runtime), then every time I pulled the notification bar down, the system crashed, requiring a battery pull.
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Odd, never had that happen once to me.
[HTC Rezound] snpiee:
I too, want to confirm that MMS does not work. Well not fully. I can send and recieve MMS only from one person but not anyone else???

Under ICS based custom roms I had everything working. I understand this is a new ROM so I'm not complaining, just test driving this thing and reporting issues. :) One thing strange, this is the first ROM that I've used that says "Unknown PRL" under Settings/About/Status. Also quite some crashes, especially if using camera.
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Carrier? I'm on Verizon, PRL is filled in.
[HTC Rezound] snpiee:
PagePlus (Verizon system)
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
What's the best recovery ( including version #) to use when flashing this Rom coming from ICS?

Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Most recent TWRP.
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
Thank you. Is 2.6.3.0 ok? I read about versions newer than that causing issues. Also, does the Flash Image GUI app work for flashing recoveries and kernels like it does on the DNA? That app is crazy convenient!
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Yeah you want 2.6.3.0, it's the most current version flyhalf put out for the Rezound I believe. I have no idea what the other app is, if it's just doing fastboot commands under the covers it should though. There is a toolbox for the Rezound that does the same.
[HTC Rezound] snpiee:
So it seems that if one still wants to get into EPST or DIAG MODE on this ROM, one needs to flash back to a sense ROM such as stock ICS. If I understand correctly one can do a nandroid backup of Evervolv, flash ICS, do whatever one wanted to do with EPST or DIAG MODE, then do nandroid restore of Evervolv ROM. I have a question, when doing nandroid backup, there is a list of partitions one has to select to backup, which ones need to be selected? Thanks.

p.s. would also love to know why EPST or DIAG MODE not working in this ROM. Is it because the right Apps not present or it has something to do with the phone dialer?
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Yes you can do a back up, flash ICS then restore this rom. You need /system, /data and /boot (usually checked by default.) If you're s-on, you'll need to manually flash the kernel back via fastboot just like you'd do when installing a rom.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
Need help please

I posted the following message below a couple days ago and never got a response from anyone regarding this rom. I received my rezound today but ran into a few issues. First i can not use the camera as it's asking for sd card which is working just fine but cant be read. I'm currently restoring apps data from titanium backup. Secondly I can not change the system theme when i go into preferences or have the ability to take screen shots pressing power and down volume button. And lastly i see global network as an option, do i choose this if I go over seas to Europe? Other than these issues thr ROM is working fine it seems! :good::D Thanks for the help!

[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Can you please unquote the whole first post?

What version of the rom did you get installed? Check Settings, About Phone, Mod Version.

Camera - Can you read the SD card with an explorer app to see the contents on it? It's a little confusing that you say it's fine but can't be read.

Themes - There is only one by default, have you installed another that is AOSP 4.4.2 compatible?

Screen shots - Working fine for me, what happens if you long press power and hit the option on the pop up menu?
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
I'm not sure how to unquote a post.

The version of the mod is ev_vigor-4.0.0b1-20140122-kitkat.

I have not installed any themes as of yet.

I have the screen shoot option available upon press and hold down power button but when attempting it says "Can't do screen shoot sd card is in use". I do not have it plugged into computer via USB, just on AC power.

I restored all but 4 apps using TB but Go Sms is having issues restoring and at this time will not restore.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
The screen shot issue is a known "bug" in JB and KK ROMs, you have to manually create a directory in /sdcard/Pictures called Screenshots, then it should work correctly.

Also, TiBu doesn't like the embedded SU (actually I think it is the embedded BusyBox), they installing a different BusyBox from the market. Going forward I would recommend dumping TiBu in favor of Ultimate Backup, it can do everything TiBu does and isn't as picky about SU/BusyBox.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
Interesting. Well I'll go ahead and do that. Right now I just got done using my EXT sd card reader and erased my card and reformat it in hopes it can be read properly. The camera won't work but we wil see what happens in a few minutes. Also when I plug in USB to computer I can only read the EXT SD card not Internal. So do I create path for screen shots on the EXT SD?
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
You're going to want to install the latest version in the original post. Do you know what version of gapps you have installed? You're going to need it again also. This rom doesn't back them up on an update so you need to re-flash them after installed the latest version of the rom.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
I'm not sure to be honest as I had the service done Jtagged. I'm using a Mac.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
No, you create the directory on the internal sd, you can use ES File Explorer to do it if needed.

The 1-22 build you have may not have the fix to mount internal sd as mass storage yet, you can update to the latest version or just change the mount type to MTP in Storage select overflow menu and USB computer connection and change connection type to MTP.

As far as camera goes, I have never had an issue with it at all.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
I have a feeling this is going to be a very long day....well in addition to restoring my apps and organize them into folders I need to figure out why the sd card will not read properly. [MENTION=5642430]pball52998[/MENTION] works with Mac and terminal better than I do so he can help me with the flashing process. I have ROM toolbox installed to view the root browser files.
[HTC Rezound] tholmes8291:
Are you referring to jrummy's? There are 2 in the store
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Yes, by Jrummy Apps... Just like TiBu there is a "regular" or lite version that's free, and full blown version is the Pro version that costs a few bucks.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
Yes he is. But jrummy ultimate backup has some pretty bad reviews compared to TB.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Yeah... I know the reviews on Play Store aren't great, but check out the major reviews by the big android info houses... It had a rocky start but after I fought with TiBu on an older device and switched out of frustration I haven't looked back and I've never had a glitch or any problem on multiple handsets.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
Also my call logs, sms messages are not restoring at all. Some apps that have been granted root wont work correct. I have SU built into the build. This all needs to be worked out.
[HTC Rezound] tholmes8291:
True but I tend to believe first hand accounts from long time users more than reviews. Quite honestly some users don't know what they're doing or the limitations sometimes. I've used TiBu for a long time and I like it but it does have issues with KK sometimes. Rom Toolbox Pro also has issues such as not uninstalling apps on KK but both are great tools.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Honestly, when changing Roms I recommend not restoring any data and starting fresh. Restoring apps across android versions is known to cause issues sometimes. I have never restored SMS or call logs across android versions because it can cause issues.

If setup properly you should be able to restore everything needed for basic operation from Google acct, contacts, apps, WiFi security, etc.

When restoring bulk data across android versions or ROM platforms your just asking for trouble...
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
Well it's too late I reinstalled most of my apps with data. Currently getting ready to flash the newest build ROM: ev_vigor-4.0.0b1-20140128-kitkat.zip. But then I was told to flash the Gapps also? And why wont some apps work with root permission? What about the sd card issue? All this needs be fixed before i even consider installing Ultimte Backup or any other apps for that matter.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Whoa... Calm down... Let's hit one of these at a time... This ROM is solid so all of these issues can be worked through with some patience and understanding.

Whenever you flash an AOSP ROM, Gapps (Google App core structure) are not included for licensing reasons and need to be flashed separately. With a Rezound that is S-ON you flash ROM zip, then Gapps, and manually push the boot.img via fastboot (if S-Off, boot.img can be skipped). Just the way it is.

The other issues I will try to hit in order of importance... Can you explain what the sd card issue is?
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
Alright I do apologize under a bit of stress. I just want get these issues resolved so i can get my phone together and use it actually. Ok lets see....I'm S-Off. I now just successfully flashed the newest ROM ev_vigor-4.0.0b1-20140128-kitkat.zip build. But i'm not sure which Gapps to flash and what ones had been flashed already in the Jtag service.

The SD card error for the camera issue says "Insert SD card before using the camera". Screen shoot error is "Couldn't capture screenshot. Storage maybe used"
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Hmmm... Interesting...

I would flash Banks Gapps personally. They contain the bare minimum stuff needed for Google plus Launcher3, no extra junk.

If you install ES File Explorer from the Play Store, can you browse to /storage and then browse both sdcard0 (internal) and sdcard1 (external)?

As I said earlier though, the screenshot is known on most JB and KK ROMs on the Rez, you just have to create the missing directory in /sdcard/Pictures called Screenshots, so this doesn't bother me... The fact the camera doesn't see the storage (it uses internal by default) bothers me a lot more, but before we freak out, lets see what ESFE says.

Also, you could start Terminal Emulator, type 'su' and press enter (grant root if prompted) then 'df' and press enter... look for a line that says something like this:

/mnt/media_rw/sdcard0 10.5G 120.2M 10.4G 8192

or something similar.

EDIT: Oh yeah... I think root is disabled by default in the ROM, go to Settings->Toolbox and then select Superuser, make sure "Superuser access" is enabled and "Automatic Prompt" is Set to Prompt and "Declare permissions" is not checked. Then go to Settings->Developer Options and scroll down to Debugging and make sure that USB Debugging is checked (think TiBu needs this).
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
Do i double wipe cache and davilk before installing the gapps?
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Umm... No... Just flash Gapps and then wipe cache and dalvik once.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
I flashed gapps the second one and I have no settings options except for search & now cards......also having the sd card problem still. File Explorer says sdcard0 is unmounted. I think im going to revert back to the other gapps (not signed) because i cant acess any other settings of the phone.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
No worries... You have to open settings from the pulldown tiles or application menu under Launcher3 (in Banks Gapps), this is normal with this launcher, the menu button settings takes you too launcher/GN settings.

What recovery are using?
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
CWM 6.0.0.3
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
OK, here is one of the problems, CWM 6.0.0 3 doesn't fully support KK ROMs... You must be using TWRP 2.6.3.0 or CWM 6.0.3.6 with KitKat based ROMs or they do not flash correctly.

Download the TWRP 2.6.3.0 here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1902381 and either flash it with CWM (weird, I know, but it works).

Once it's flashed, reboot into Recovery and TWRP should start... we need to start clean so open Wipe, then Advanced, and tick everything but External SD and swipe to wipe... then do it twice more (tick everything and wipe). Watch for errors just in case... Once that is done, go back to the main menu, Install and select the ROM zip first, then the Gapps file and swipe to flash. It will install the ROM, then the Gapps, then you can reboot, but give it time, the initial boot on Evervolv is very slow.

Then see if you can access the internal storage.
[HTC Rezound] Droid9684:
So then since the recovery is wrong maybe I should try to get a partial refund. It's on CMW 6.0.3.1. Ok I went to install the TWRP from ext sd card and it says installation aborted.
[HTC Rezound] pball52998:
Okay off topic ._. but with this, when upgrading TWRP in the years/months to come do I just flash newer versions of TWRP in TWRP? Or put the recovery.img in the platform-tools, boot to fastboot and fastboot flash the recovery image? Which is which? Thanks, I've been wondering this.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Ah... your probably locked and S-OFF, that is no problem... just rename the file to PH98IMG.zip and disconnect the USB, pull the battery and reinsert then power up well holding POWER+VOL DN, HBoot should start and parse for update files, see it, and flash it automatically.

As far as a partial refund... I'll leave that up to you I guess.

---------- Post added at 06:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:59 PM ----------

Actually, it depends if you are S-ON or S-OFF and whether locked or unlocked... You must be unlocked (S-ON/Off) to flash a recovery via fastboot, if you are S-OFF and locked, you cannot flash recovery via Fastboot (although it should work via recovery) but have to rename it to PH98IMG.zip and reboot into hboot and it should just flash.

Locked/S-ON - Not happening :p

Unlocked/S-ON - Flash recovery via Fastboot (or Goo Manager)

Locked/S-OFF - Flash via PH98IMG.zip upgrade file or existing recovery should work (Fastboot will NOT)

Unlocked/S-OFF - Whatever you want to do to get it in the phone :D
