[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
USB Mass storage is fixed along with the SD Card issue for market apps.

New fresh build is running, will update when completed and tested.
[HTC Rezound] kcipopnevets:
Is it too much to ask you try Pou? :( I have nobody else with a Rezound to ask. Just to see if the problem is my phone. (My Droid X runs the app much better)

I just did a clean wipe and storage format. Also, I flashed ClockworkMod and tried to flash again but it still refuses to come up to speed. I think I have myself a lemon. But thanks for your help, I guess I have enough evidence now that I own a dud. :P
[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
New build uploaded! Link in OP adjusted.

Fixes:

Error when installing certain apps from the market

USB Mass storage now mounts both SD Cards.

Question on the voice & data issue. Can one of you guys try CM11 and see if it works there?

FWIW: I Just installed Pou. It is pretty darn sluggish.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
I tried Pou... It lags. :)
[HTC Rezound] kcipopnevets:
Lol, there's something out of the way! XD

So... Should I perhaps RUU back to GB and work up to see if it fixes anything? I have nothing to lose, right? (Also, does anyone's orientation animation lag as well?)
[HTC Rezound] radiantx:
CM11 appears to allow voice & data simultaneously.
[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
Hmm.. ok.

I'll look in to it some more, but I have a feeling that what I did to fix GSM is what broke it.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
No... Rotation, portrait to landscape and back, is smooth... And I tried it in Maps, which is usually troublesome with graphics.
[HTC Rezound] kcipopnevets:
So would you recommend RUU? I have some free time now.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
[MENTION=5474827]kcipopnevets[/MENTION] sure... Why not, it takes a bit, several hours actually, but it can't hurt.

[MENTION=2658396]kkozma[/MENTION] seems the built in messaging app has the iPhone group text message receive bug, didnt that get corrected last summer sometime?
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
I remember it wasn't implemented right away on CM10.x but got added later, just don't remember when... good luck :)
[HTC Rezound] blu422:
Cm11 doesn't even work with sending SMS yet on gsm
[HTC Rezound] 4218kris:
im using walmarts family plan by tmobile. anyone confirm sms pics working?

using this sms app http://www.xda-developers.com/android/evolvesms-beautifies-sms-messaging/
[HTC Rezound] blu422:
Stock messaging should work for pictures and every other app as long as you use the correct apns just to be sure I just tried I with that app on T-Mobile and I sent picture messages successfully
[HTC Rezound] 4218kris:
i also can confirm sending pics works!! thanks kkozma for awesome rom.

this rom came just in time i just got a walmart family plan tmobile sim 3 days ago (39.99 unlimited only comes in speed 3g:eek:) and couldnt get much to work correctly until now thanks again!
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
How are you getting 3G on Tmo with the Rezound? Tmo uses 1700Mhz AWS for 3G and the Rezound doesn't have the hardware to support that?
[HTC Rezound] drellisdee:
Very pleased with look and fluid flow of this rom. Any chance on fixing simultaneous voice and data? This is a deal breaker for me.
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
He said he's looking into it, we'll have to wait and see.
[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
Just for curiosity sake...

What the heck do you even use simultaneous voice and data for? In the numerous years I've been doing the whole smartphone thing, I've yet to come up with a single reason I'd need it.

But back on to the subject...

Does it indeed work in CM11 and did it work in CM10.2?
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Wifi Tethering...

It worked on CM10.2, never tested it on CM11

Per this Neo fixed it on CM11 in Nov - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47808022&postcount=157
[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
Ok, so I just tested my hunch.... My GSM fix does in fact break simultaneous voice and data. Have a build going with it reverted and a cherry pick from the evervolv gerrit to see if I can make both work again. *sigh*
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Thank you sir, I've been using tethering today because my house Internet is down, every time my phone rings I get kicked off work... :)
[HTC Rezound] 4GivenByChrist:
I can confirm that the build prior to gsm works fine. I'm on a call and posting this now
[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
Do you know how to edit the build.prop? If so, I can get you going without a reflash.
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Yes sir, what do I need to change? I'll give it a quick shot.
[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
Look for this block of settings:

# RIL properties

# cm props

ril.subscription.types=NV,RUIM

ro.telephony.ril_class=HTCVigorQualcommRIL

mobiledata.interfaces = rmnet0,rmnet_sdio0

ro.telephony.default_network = 8

Add this right below it:

telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice = 1

Reboot and you should be set.
[HTC Rezound] kcipopnevets:
Okay, just reporting back after all the efforts I made to correct my device...

I used the RUU guide and everything went rather smoothly. I flashed the ROM once again and the same problems persisted. It would seem that my phone does not agree with AOSP entirely since back on Sense, the phone was smoother than ever. I have everything updated to the latest version and I still cannot find out what in the world is making this phone slow down even though EVERYTHING BUT screen orientation and notification shade animation are running significantly faster than stock Sense. In Sense, the shade had the typical lag but not significant at all and orientation was buttery-smooth. Is everyone using like TWRP 2.6.3.3 or something, the one having issues with non-KitKat ROMs? I'm running out of solutions and I'm ready to say that something very small that is most likely hardware related is terribly wrong with my phone. I don't know if I have lag issues with a Sense-based ROM, as I'm going to try sun_dream's and decide if I have a picky wafer. :rolleyes:
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
I get on conference calls a lot, sometimes for a LONG time (too long, but that is a different story), it is nice to be able to have the BT headset going, get and read emails, Facebook, lookup info in Chrome, etc., the entire time well talking on the phone.

---------- Post added at 05:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:57 PM ----------

I can't seem to edit the build.prop file, ES File Explorer lets me open it, edit it, but I it errors out when I try to save... And yes, I do have Root Explorer turned on, but am I missing something?
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Thank you sir, I'd suggest just a flash able patch for GSM users that makes the build.prop change or vice versa instead of spending a lot of time trying to make it all work.

---------- Post added at 06:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:36 PM ----------

/system mounted to read/write?
[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
Yeah, I've run into that before with ES... Can't remember how I got around it.. Try astro??
[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
Ok guys. I created two flashable zips. One to enable CDMA correctly and one to enable GSM.

You will want to flash the CDMA zip to fix simultaneous voice and data.

Going forward, until I can find a permanent fix, the ROM will be built with Verizon as the primary carrier. If you need GSM, simply flash the GSM zip after the install.

CDMA <-- download and flash this to fix simultaneous voice and data

GSM
[HTC Rezound] fudplayers:
I'm loving this ROM, it's a daily for me and I appreciate the hard work all parties involved put in to it. There are 3 missing things I wish a future version would have. A sound toggle to go from sound to vibrate, the brightness slider at the top of the screen and a way to slide into text message from the lockscreen. Maybe I'm missing these somewhere?
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
For the toggle widget, look at Power Toggles by Painless Death in the Play Store... The rest look into Gravity Box and the Xposed framework, it has been mentioned in this thread a few times.

[MENTION=2658396]kkozma[/MENTION] The CDMA.zip to enable simultaneous voice and data works perfectly, just flashed it and tested. Thanks, for some reason I just couldn't get the build.prop to save so this saved me from finding another solution.
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
You can add a sound toggle to the Quick Tiles with gravity box also. It's "Ringer Mode" I believe. The option is there on the reboot menu also.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Not sure if this is ROM related or something else... I rarely used my Rezound as a media player until the last week or so since I cancelled my XM subscription in my work vehicle, but I have been using it a lot since then and am having a weird issue...

Streaming music online, no matter what service or whether it is mobile data or WiFi, plays perfectly, no skips or hiccups other than the occasional Spotify stopping for no apparent reason (this is happening to lots of people, not just the Rezound) for hours on end... But I also have about 1-1.5GB of MP3's on the external SD card and they skip and stutter quite often, usually a couple blips per song, but generally only if the charger is connected, if it is running on battery it still does it but no way near as often (once every 20 minutes or so??). I thought this might be a an issue with embedded Music app, so I installed Fusion player, switched the music effects to Fusion, and it still does it. This is over the cabled headset or speakers, haven't tried BT.

I also considered it might be the MP3 files got corrupted in the copy process, but if I connect via USB to my laptop and play them directly from there, they play fine out my laptop.
[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
Wow, that's a good one. I hadn't put anything type of music on mine yet, but I just copied a bunch of stuff over. It's playing just fine with the default music app. Tried with wifi on and off, charger plugged in and not. Ughh..
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Ok, so its probably something on my end then... I haven't clean flashed since the initial release so I'll try that on the next update and see what happens. I'm off for the next 3 days so I won't be using this phone much til Monday so its no big deal, was just curious if anyone else was having the same issue.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sinsecond:
A month ago I sold all of my tablets and have bought the Wacom Cintiq Companion Hybrid.

Primarily verifiable need for it to work. But since I now possessed no other tablet, I quickly found that my root right for certain things missing for recreational use. To use the Sixaxis app for example.

So I wanted to ask here if maybe a developer have already dealt with it, to root the device.

Would be really happy.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] powerplaygraphix:
It's pretty much a Raw Android Tablet and should work with anything in the play store. No one seems to be looking in to doing anything with this tablet since it's so expensive and it's made for such a specific use. I asked questions about it for months and no one acknowledged me about it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notontherugman:

Tablet malfunctioned and I lost some files. Would love to be able to use a recovery program to get them back (need root to do so).

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JediRemi:
Any news ?

Sorry to revive the thread but since I am considering buying one.

Did any one try to root it with success ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aniruddhahar:
I find it unlikely that anyone who owns it has tried rooting the CCH yet, Myself included. Of course, I am tempted to root it, but I wouldn't do it until I am sure I can restore everything in case it messes up. The android system recovery that comes with the tablet has no commands for the user, so even a custom recovery would be required to backup/restore. It's not exactly an easily replacable tablet, and the device is quite expensive after all. The reason I am tempted to root is not related to wacom and their tech at all, but once you have root, you end up wanting it across your devices. Unless you want root for a specific app, and unless you're ABSOLUTELY sure that app can benefit from the cintiq, I wouldn't take the risk that comes with trying to root.

That said, you will not be disappointed with the tablet without root, it really is a cintiq on the go, as well as a Tegra 4 android tablet. Really rock solid performance, excellent battery life( I actually did clock 12 hours straight on high performance), and pretty much pure android without any fancy changes.

Maybe I'll succumb and try to root someday, but that's a remote possibility. Unless I end up damaging it somehow, and replacement seems inevitable, in which case I'll try it before replacing.

This is Wacom's reply to an enquiry about rooting: http://forum.wacom.eu/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=15901
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NamelessFragger:
This is a nearly two-year-old thread, but now that I have my own CCH thanks to a bit of luck on eBay, I should report that yes, you CAN root it!

Wacom's complete negligence in updating it does have one benefit: towelroot still works due to the old January 2014-dated kernel, but you need towelroot v1 and not v3 as currently offered on towelroot.com. I figured this out when I looked up other Tegra 4-based systems and how well towelroot worked on those.

From there on, just let SuperSU update the binary, and then you're good.

I feel like this is just the beginning of figuring out how to update the CCH to a recent version of Android, since Wacom themselves have been even less than useless with properly supporting it during its lifespan and have now discontinued it with no pretense of further support. [MENTION=4189968]aniruddhahar[/MENTION], you with me here? We both know what this thing's capable of if they'd just updated it past Jelly Bean, and with Android N on the horizon and finally baking multi-window into base AOSP, the timing couldn't be better!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aniruddhahar:
This is indeed some heartening news, thanks [MENTION=1958005]NamelessFragger[/MENTION] ! The CCH hardware checks out to run at least lollipop/marshmallow, and frankly I'd be happy to even get past Jelly Bean to KK or Lollipop. However, the problem is the role the CCH plays at work. It's easy to replace a smartphone or a tablet, but a damaged Cintiq could mean 1000-2000 USD for replacement. Having said that, I'll be trying to root it at least. But unless we get some info about the hardware switch from android mode to desktop mode, I find it doubtful that we may be able to upgrade the device while still retaining the Cintiq capabilities which are vital to any CCH artist using the device in daily production work.

Also, I cannot find links to the v1 APK of towelroot anywhere. Could you please upload it here?

I wonder if this news should also be shared on the Wacom forums...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NamelessFragger:
[MENTION=4189968]aniruddhahar[/MENTION]: I figure that's one of the major reasons the CCH dev scene is nonexistent - the likelihood that anyone who is willing to pay well over $1,000 for one of these things depends on it working reliably and without issue to make a living. Not only would it be expensive to replace, but the downtime until replacement is a major setback to an artist's livelihood who needs it to work.

It's not a toy - it's a tool, and one that can do something that almost no other tablet computer can do nearly as well as it does.

However, while Wacom doesn't feel like handing out the source code that would reveal whatever kernel modifications they made to make the monitor mode switch work, I have a feeling that with enough effort, we could reverse-engineer their implementation. The Tegra 4 sources for other devices like the NVIDIA Shield Portable is already floating around out there, and that could be a potential launching point for an updated Android ROM, even if it might take a while before we get the monitor mode switch going. We might even have pen digitizer-related sources from Samsung's various Galaxy Note products that may also help to a limited extent, differences in digitizers aside.

There's more important things to tackle before any custom ROM efforts, however, like getting a custom recovery set up so that we can easily flash Nandroid backups and future custom ROMs.

As things currently stand, I haven't seen Wacom put out any ROM images and PC-based flashing utilities like most other Android manufacturers, so unless your idea of a recovery is hard-dumping the NAND with an eMMC reader and hard-flashing it with a known good dump if your system becomes unbootable, tread carefully.

towelroot v1

any safe links to towelroot v1?

did you try v3 and it failed?

I am a dev... In fact, I'm working on a custom filesystem at work right now. I have a CCH and like many.. I find it difficult to look at knowing how awesome the hardware is and how Wacom abandoned it. I was doing everything with this unit... movies, video games, video conferencing, etc. I read comics, and holding the unit vertically makes for an excellent digital comic book experience.

It is, quite frankly, the best tablet experience I've ever had. And it's sitting there on Jellybean.

How close are we to pulling he trigger on a GPL violation submission? I understand they've "lost" the source?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cloudtoad:
bumpity bump bump

Would really like to see some progress here.

Did someone actually root the Hybrid with towelroot v1? Did we ever hear back from Wacom on getting the source?

They shut their forums down, unfortunately. This is really the only other thread on the internet discussing the cintiq hybrid. Such a shame.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Angelicus_Malus:
I rooted my Hybrid last November, but I didn't use towelroot, so I can't speak to that method. I used KingoRoot v1.4.2 for PC. It's been a while (not to mention the long parade of root tools/apps that failed before that), so I don't remember exactly, step-by-step, how I originally did it.

In the hopes that this might help other Hybrid owners, I've scoured my Hybrid and computer for any related files, zipped them and posted a link below for posterity.

EDIT: Unfortunately, I mostly lurk here, and the site won't let me post outside links until I have at least 10 posts--which I don't--so I had to get creative with the urls. :\

EDIT 2: I can post links now! Updated the link after some reorganization of my file host...

Files I'm including:

KingoRoot Apk v1.9

com.kingoroot.com-2.apk

KingoRoot v1.4.2 for PC

android_root.exe

KingoUser Apk v2.0.5

KingoUser.apk

Kingo Android Root.url

The files are provided AS-IS. I make no guarantee that they won't blow up your device. If your device explodes into a barrage of radioactive shrapnel, I am NOT responsible. These files worked for me. They may not work for you, and I have no idea if newer updates work either. Your mileage may vary.

**TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK**

So... Doom and gloom aside...

http://dracolusus.com/xda-developers/devices/wacom/cintiq-companion-hybrid/cintiq-root.zip

You can visit KingoRoot's website here:

kingoapp.com/android-root.htm

I think I installed the PC program first, plugged the tablet into the comp, and the program pushed KingoUser.apk (SuperUser) to the device. I'm not sure about the KingoRoot apk, though; I may have downloaded it from the play store separately either before or after rooting, or it could have been pushed by the program too, but I don't remember now.

More Bump

I got my Companion Hybrid about a year ago, and was astonished that Wacom didn't even try to provide updates for the Cintiq. I love the thing, but there is no immersive mode, the notification bar crashes the UI sometimes, and whatever background I have set will reset to the default jelly bean one after about a week. It's infuriating that someone could put so little effort into providing stable software, but still lock out people who are willing to put the work in.

When I called Wacom's support about getting root access, the guy who helped me just said its not possible, that there will be no updates ever, and that Wacom no longer supports the Companion Hybrid at all beyond the 1-year replacement warranty.

My biggest complaint of all is that when the tablet is in Android mode all the hardware buttons are pretty much useless.

This is all just a big rant I guess, but I would LOVE to see this thing running Android 5 or 6. This tablet has so much untapped potential.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cintiqhybrid:
Slightly off-topic but CCH owners are very hard to track down and Wacom forums are down so cannot ask there. I recently acquired a CCH by pure luck but the previous owner reset it before sending and that wiped some fix to the camera that he had applied which means when I open camera app in Android mode it shows 'Cannot connect to Camera'. He swears there was a fix for this which he can no longer find.

I don't want to send it back but just trying my luck here to see if anyone knows of this issue and the possible fix? When connected to PC, the front camera works fine with Skype with notification blue LED and all..

Sorry if it is the wrong thread but since my new thread will probably not catch you attention I thought I will post here.

Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Angelicus_Malus:
I wasn't aware of any camera issue, since my camera has always worked fine. I got mine second hand off e-bay, though, so maybe its original owner applied the fix. I didn't pay too close attention to whether or not it had been reset before being sent to me; I was more focused on getting it rooted.

I did a quick google search for the issue, but only this thread and some post about the Surface Pro camera app came up. If you could post some more info about it, I'll see if I can find any useful files on mine.

Hopefully, a more experienced user will grace us with their expertise... :)

Camera never worked on mine, any camera or gallery app just crashes. I got it off eBay on July 2014 and it was factory reset when I got. Did some firmware update using Wacom settings app but didn't fix camera.
