Has HTC confirmed a fix yet? - HTC Rezound

Random reboots
WiFi acting up
Connection hiccups
Browser and some other apps randomly close
Battery sucks
Wondering if htc has confirmed a update to fix all this?
Any ideas?

From what my friend told me (vzw business rep) less than 10% of the Rezounds have these problems and some of the problems are caused by current problems in the 4G network.
No software release by htc at this time.
I would get the phone replaced at a vzw store where you can play with the phone to see if it works like it should.

Haven't had a random reboot yet.
No WiFi problems.
What do you mean by "connection hiccups"? I can't think of anything that would come close to what I think you mean.
No random apps closing.
Battery is in line with other HTC phones. Sense is just a battery hog. Wait for S-OFF and custom kernels and you'll see leaps and bounds of battery improvements.

I have none of the reported issues...
I am shocked at how long the battery lasts... 20% better than my old TB after ROMS and Kernel tweaks.

I agree, I get battery life than my TBolt did and have not had any of the problems listed above.

I haven't had any of these issues either. Have you tried a factory reset yet? It's relatively easy to do and could possibly help if you are having issues with apps and random reboots.
If that doesn't help definitely return it and get a new one. Hopefully the issues will not continue.

The battery life is going to depend on each person's location.
I got 30 hours when I was at home over the weekend, and 8 hours when I spent the day at the university. The reason being signal strength. I didn't use it any more than I did at home.

Also if you are in a low signal area the phone strains to get the data signal resulting in battery overheating and browser problems.

no random reboot issues here... the GF's tbolt is another story though that thing is awful.
Radio would be nice - i frequently go in and out of 4g areas and the radio does have a tough time picking which one to use.
The rest of the issues noted I haven't seen at all!

for me:
video playback occassionally goes out of sync
while headphones/aux is plugged in and nothing is playing(or at low volume) there's this static/hiss sound
phone gets really hot often(and when it goes over 100F the battery depletes quicker
screen is incredibly sensitive and keeps thinking I'm tapping on things that I'm not
have weird random browser lag(regardless of browser) where ill select something and nothing will happen... then after like 10 - 15sec, the new page suddenly pops up
those are my 'regular' issues. I've only had the phone reboot by itself once & the battery was super hot then. also, I will get FC's here & there but its not common.
I still blame sense/bloatware
[EDIT]: I forgot to mention that sometimes if I go to a 3G area, it will not go back to 4G on its own. ill have to manually turn the radio off/on, then it kicks back into 4G

i was actually impressed with the radio on the phone, maybe thats because i updated from a samsung fascinate which fascinated me as to how bad the radio was, excuse the bad pun

guys, open tickets with HTC and complain about your problems. t hat's the ONLY way they're gonna find out, besides seeing a high exchange rate! let's tell them EXACTLY what's wrong! my open ticket is about the crappy mic recording in the video mode, and i also brought up light leak and the background noise with music. they've escalated me to another hihger support team whos gonna contact me wtihin a week

Ditto on being impressed with the radio. I get -75db in the same metal building in which my hTC EVO 4G could muster -90db at best. The external antenna on the battery cover really do the trick.
Never had a random reboot or force close.
No problems with WiFi (except that LTE is so fast I never want to connect to my home internet!)
I get 8-10 hrs from the batt, on Performance mode, connected to 4G and heavy use. Picked up a spare battery to take me through the evening after I swap it after work.

My stock browser has always crashed occasionally, my incredible did it when it was stock and rooted and my rezound does it exactly the same way, its a software problem. I have had 2 random reboots so far not enough to complain. Other than that great, love this phone.

The only problem I have had is my phone not connecting to 4g but I think juice defender was the problem.

What someone with some time needs to do is get a digital petition up on the forums with phones having these problems ( Inc, TBolt, Rezound etc.) and try to get several thousand signatures to send to HTC because VZW doesn't care. That might get htc to do a software fix.

[Q] Capacitive buttons pushing themselves?

Hi all,
So this issue started really becoming annoying on my Fascinate with 2.2 but for awhile now, it's had this issue where I won't be touching any of the capacitive buttons on the bottom but the phone will start vibrating and acting like some of them are getting pushed. Now with 2.2, it's even more annoying because that sometimes makes it so when I go to turn off the screen, it takes a screenshot and makes the camera sound, sometimes at awkward times!
Anyway, are other people having issues with their buttons or have I dropped my Fascinate too many times?
And is there a way to disable the screenshot thing in 2.2?
Thanks!
PS. I should mention that I've been on a lot of different ROMs and had this happen, so it's not isolated to a specific one...
I've had the same problem on every rom including stock. It seems to only happen when I have a poor 3G signal, never happens while on wifi.
yeah it happens to me.
to get rid of the screen shot (i found out cuz it straight pissed me off) you go into system/app and delete screen capture.apk (not the exact name but it has screen capture in it)
that well help with that

I've had the same problem on multiple ROMs with and without WiFi connected. It seems to be my search button that gets triggered the most.
I haven't noticed it happening for the last few days with my current setup (Comm 1.2 + ED01 + Xtreme Green) but it was very random so that probably doesn't mean much.
I do notice that it happens more when my phone is in the media or car dock as well.

Yeah, it certainly is worse because of touchwiz but I'm pretty sure if I recall, last time I tried something non-touchwiz, the buttons still acted flakey...
Also, I have had bad signal where I am today and I swear the buttons have been worse than usual @AlgorithmX

I've narrowed it down to poor 3G signal as well. I was out in the woods at a Retreat recently and had the capacitive buttons pressing themselves problem. As soon as I entered an area with strong 3G signals, it stopped. Now that I am at home with full 3G signal, I don't get it at all.
Sooo obvious question: why the hell would 3g reception affect the buttons?
Do you guys use mini info? I've noticed that it only seems to occur when I have that installed...
yea this happens to me all the time in a bad service area, bouncing around from 3g, 1x, and no signal. Running the evil fascination 3.4.2 with OTB 1.3 kernel. I don't think my setup is to blame i noticed this with the last superclean in the same bad service area. Not using miui info either
I had this problem as well but it never really seemed related to signal. It would sometimes happen on different roms and kernels I would use, but not all of them. I haven't had it happen while being on ED01 and the CommRom, so I'm not sure.
My other guess is that it might be the softkey press lagging and then pressing seconds after touching them.
I had the same problem with the back button. It happened across all ROMs and even stock. I exchanged the phone out and the new one never did it. Then i dropped that one and broke the screen and had it switched again and that one doesn't do it either.

I got mine about a week after launch.
You may be on to something. I got mine on launch day.
I got mine in early october I think and just today it started doing it so bad it made the phone unusable. it took me 6 tries to get into the xda app.
the issue started recently, and right now I'm in school and its never done it in here before.
I guess it may be linked to the recent connection issues? it has definitely gotten worse, I can't even watch a youtube video now.

Have always had this issue. It certainly seems to be more noticeable in weak signal areas. I relate it to like a computer freezing up and storing commands and then when it unfreezes a barrage of button presses is released further screwing up the queue for the CPU. (And obviously causing other issues, like "stuck" touches)
I've always found that on this phone when the radios are switching on/off or to another type of service. 3g/1x the phone lags out pretty good.
I have this problem since 2.2 update. It seems to be a known problem for samsung galaxy s. Other vibrant (I9000) seems to receive softkey firmware upgrade to fix the bug.

That's a great explanation and I think is near the mark. I think the phone lags in poor signal areas and stores up the button presses. Mine hasn't done it once now that I'm at home in a major 3g area.

Do you have a link to more information on a firmware fix for other galaxy s models? I had my phone replaced under warranty because of this and now the new one is doing the same. It's really bad in low signal areas. Verizon said it's a hardware issue the first time around.
I think it may also have to do with third party chargers. Are others with this issue using generic chargers? I read an explanation somewhere that the screen is caused to short out due to increased charge rates.

[Q] Any major problems with this phone?

I have an SGS1 now. Considering upgrading due to unfixable lag with it. Is the SGS2 free from major problems?
Experience may vary .. but for me, after 1 week (coming from HD2), it's a dream phone. Biggest problem seems to be battery life. My is comparable to HD2, but some people have considerate problems with it.
Battery life (fixable - there are some rogue processes that eat it up), banding (16bit color instead of 24bit - fixable, driver issue).
phone gets very hot when gaming, radio is a bit f***ed in that sometimes you cannot get the internet to work when going from wireless to 3g (workaround is to toggle flight mode, bit annoying to be honest). some are experiencing a yellowish left side of the screen, though i personally do not have that problem.
all in all it's a good phone with a few quirks, but comparing to sgs1, (had it previously as well) i must say that it is quite a leap in the right direction.
speaking of lag on sgs1, have you updated to 2.3.3? i gave the phone to my mom and installed 2.3.3 and the lag is almost gone to be honest.
My Wifi signal seems week ?

Have 2.3.3. but lag returns after a while...
OP, go visit a few forums for phones that have recently been released. The new question isn't "are there any major problems?", but "which major problems should I investigate?" I would challenge any existing SGS2 user to point out a dual-core phone that has fewer issues. You'll find "different" issues, but not "fewer." For now, for me, there's no phone currently out that I'd replace the SGS2 with.
And OP, the direct answer to your question is find the threads on display banding, Wi-FI performance, GPS, 2/3/4G radio, audio, camera, and battery life and if, based on your needs, you're OK with what's been discussed you should be fine.
OP, just read across this board and see! No need for a new thread.
Had it for a few days. My wifi works fine, no light leaking out of the sides, battery life is normal for an Android smartphone. I don't notice any banding (and I'm not going to go looking for it).
Coming from a Nexus One it's a massive upgrade. Couldn't be happier with it (aside from the loudspeaker quality, iPhone 4 is better in this regard).
By all means take the plunge. It's the best phone currently on the market.

Which network are you using? It could be an issue on the provider's end! I am on Telstra NextG and find that the issue occurs only in certain areas. I believe it is very tower-dependant as I can go into areas where it flips between 3G and HSPDA+ many many times without fail and then I can get into an area which I assume have not been upgraded and I will end up with the phone stuck in one of the two modes and not be able to transfer data.
I really want this phone when it comes to Canada. The issues seem either minor or limited to small percentage of units. No different than the SGS1 or any piece of technology for that matter. Defective units do make it out the door, that is why there are warranty and return periods.
As to the issue some of you guys are having with loss of data signal, the SGS1 had an issue while on Eclair where when you were in a no signal area the phone would totally freeze and you would have to reboot. It's been fixed since Froyo along with many other bugs.
Enjoy your phone, I hope to join ya'll in the not too distant future.

I am assuming the connectivity issue people are having is with the "up arrow" constantly lit up but not the down arrow. This problem I have seen in every single android handset I have used (G1, Optimus T, SGS1, and of course, the SGS2). The only common denominator is that I have used all of them while on T-Mobile USA's network. It almost always happens when I am in areas with spotty reception, or in other words, instances when I lose signal, momentarily.
However, that isn't the biggest issue for me. I bought the SGS2 to play the Gameloft games I bought on my SGS1, and I can tell you right now that this is the biggest shock to me when I did get my SGS2: none of my Gameloft games work (Asphalt 6, MC2, NOVA2, Eternal Legacy). Although I am finding out more and more about why this is the case now, this was not something I saw coming in the research I've done leading up to my purchase of this phone. 2D games seem to work fine, but if you intend to play 3D games on this phone, I suggest running some searches here with the the name of a game-in-question to see if there are any threads already about its compatibility with the SGS2.
That being said, I do not regret buying this phone one bit. It is hands down the smoothest Android experience I have ever had. I cannot slow this phone down even when I tried, and I am a very heavy user--I can drain my Vibrant's battery in under 3 hours, with di.fm playing while I use feedly and the browser while talking on beejive. This phone can handle that with no slowdown, and last much longer than my Vibrant to boot. I've actually gotten through a full workday with this usage pattern, on a single charge. This is the first phone to last me through an entire day. Even my iPhone needed charging mid-day.

That was the biggest pile of junk i had ever owned. In 5 months the charging port quit working. In 8 months power botten failed. So then, all the phone would do is boot over and over. Completly usless.

Phone has a slow response randomly and I have to reboot to fix it.

I wanna know if anyone else has this issue or not when click an app like a game it takes up to 10 seconds for it to run and after exiting sometimes the main screen is very delayed and sometimes unresponsive when scrolling left and right. I also have an issue of the phone not wanting to switch back to 4g if in 3g or 1x just stuck until I reboot or restart it. Wanna know if I should get this one replaced or not. Also GPS is horrible never accurate. It say in running little kids on the sidewalk over constantly or running threw people house. I have factory data restored it but same problem. Need to know if I need new one?

It does happen. Try a different kernel or over clocking.
this happens to me occasionally, usually only when the battery is hot/doing a LOT of things at once. (meaning when i'm charging and using pandora over bluetooth, wireless tether, and waze at once) the phone lags up so much that when i press the home button, the haptic vibrate stays on for about 3 seconds.... this is when i know that its happening - and i'll just pull the battery...
If you're running stock & it's been like that since day one, you might consider exchanging it. If you're running a custom rom/kernel, reflash & leave it at default settings for a few days & see if the problems resolve

I've never had the lag issue you speak of, however, the gps issue I have seen, but has been fixed in recent custom roms and will be addressed in the update. If you are on stock, you might want to just wait it out for 9 more days till the OTA rolls out. If you are using a custom rom/kernel combo, what are you using?

I also forgot to mention that i'm on BAMF 1.8 with the kernel that it comes with.
If your rooted, i'd recommend unchecking your "set at boot" and profiles in SetCPU, reboot, and see if it continues. As said above, if unrooted... a call to verizon may be in order.
My phone is not rooted every phone I have rooted besides like 2 I have bricked. But yeah I don't get why they didn't run this stupid phone a dule core. I got to play with a phone that had a dule core and response is so amazing.
Then you should take it back to verizon & exchange it for another. Your Tbolt shouldn't be like that out of the box. I've never had GPS issues, even on stock it would lock within a few seconds. And dual core is overrated unless you have apps that actually take advantage of it (not many). No wonder you were impressed with dual core phones lol. My mildly overclocked Tbolt runs Sense just as fluidly as any Atrix runs MotoBlur

Random rebooting???

Has anyone else noticed that the Photon seems to self reboot at odd times. I have yet to have it reboot on me while using it, but my wife's Photon has rebooted on her during active use.
Anyone else experiencing this?
No, but you leave alot of unanswered questions. Is your wife rooted? what is she running (app's) that you are not running?
I have heard of this before and if i remember, delete everything and start new, just putting a few app's at a time back on. When it starts acting up, you found your app!

Shockingly enough, I did suddenly get that twice yesterday after updating YouTube. However I've been unable to reproduce it with any level of consistency at this point.
For the two Photons I have access too (both are doing the same thing), one is rooted one is not.
Apps in common are:
Enhanced email.
ADW Launcher
Car Home.
My feeling is that more people are having this issue they just don't know about it... I found it because I went to recently used apps and there were none, then I started to watch it...

I've experienced it a couple of times while playing music. A song would be playing and then it would suddenly reboot.
I'm using Google Music...
I've heard of that happening before the 154 update came out. So not sure if you're on the latest OTA or Leak why you'd be getting it, unless as someone mentioned it was an app. Which is possible I s'pose.
i did noticed that when the phone is in the charger,when i take a call
while the phone plugged in i hear no voice and the phone reboots
the phone was pretty hot when it happens so i can assume it's a heat problem
(in my case)
Mine has been rebooting more and more frequently. I went to Sprint today and had them order me a replacement. I'm hoping the new one does not have this issue.
Have you tried wiping data and cache then installing the latest leak?

You do that before flashing the latest leak. You won't do any good otherwise.

Yes sir. That's the latest leak/OTA update. Though the reboot issue was fixed for most people with the 154 update. I previously had that issue as well. So you could try that, but not saying it will for sure fix it. That's really the only idea I have, unless you try uninstall your apps and see if it's an app related issue.
Had same famous random reboot issue, after 154 update and a wipe.
Exchanged for new Photon at Best Buy (no hassle swap) 3-4 weeks ago, So far no random reboots. For me, I believe it was hardware related, noticed the phone was getting fairly warm around the same time the random reboots started happening.

I guess it could be hardware related, but that WAS a known issue when the first Photons came out. I had to exchange mine three times due to the reboot issue before the tech told me it was a reported and known issue and they would be releasing a fix for it.
My Evo 4G and EVO 3D both did this sometimes (both stock, not rooted, hardly any 3rd party apps) when signal strength was low.
My Photon does it much less often (did it once today though, but I'm in Canada roaming). My Photon is rooted, but pretty vanilla.
I have gone with all of the OTA's, and have yet to have a reboot.

EVO LTE, I keep finding more and more glitches/bugs. How about you?

First off this is my first phone that I got on release date. So I'm assuming bugs should be present? My music app will show the album covers one day and not the next. In the phone when I click people then find a contact I want and click on it the screen turns black and does nothing. I restarted the phone and it fixed this but not the album art problem. Also ill open the stock browser app and sometimes it will just freeze on a white page and never load. This morning I turned on my phone and no data would come in or out but data was enabled. Restarted phone and it got fixed. It's just getting annoying restarting my phone a lot. Anyone else experienced these problems?

Yup, but just sit back and enjoy having the latest and greatest device.
I too find a few little bugs that irritate me. But I usually depend on our fabulous development community to iron things out for me. Have some patience and try out fresh rom.

Chrome has been known to cause all the browsers on the device to freeze up. Happens if you install it on a transformer prime.
Uninstall chrome-Uninstall flash, and reinstall flash. Then use a different browser, stock, opera..
See if it locks up like that again.
I also see you have a low signal, on an already slow 3g network. Could be data related, does it ever happen over wifi?

I believe you maybe correct with chrome. It started yesterday when I downloaded it now that I think about it. How do I uninstall flash? Thanks

I have the same issue with data not coming through some days when I turn the phone on. I just simply enable airplane mode then disable it and it works again. Saves time from having to restart.
Sense4 is a buggy, bloated, sluggish pos.
i have none of these bugs
its just your luck

Flash would just be in your list of "My Apps" in the play store. If you don't have it there it's just not installed and you'd just have to uninstall chrome and not worry about the flash portion.
Actually I am the opposite. I'm officially in love with my phone.
At first I was worried about the yellow screen and battery life that I was getting (compared to others). The yellow screen has seem to go away with time (looks like a glue thing) and a few tweaks and my battery is stellar.
So I'm officially all in on my phone. Really an incredible phone.

People in the development section have been working hard on making a cm9 build for this phone. From reading about their progress, it seems like a fully functional cm9 is not too far away. And of course, it's gonna be very smooth and fluid.
Not like this jerky hiccuping sense4.

Would you mind sharing your battery tweaks? I'm getting decent battery life but I'm certainly not blown away.
I also have the yellowish tint to my screen and I'm hoping mine also clears.
luckily, most of those bugs sounds software related (sense 4), so when u smack a custom ROM on there it'll be fine. when you get a phone on launch day/first batch you wanna look for hardware defects (light leakage, loose vibrating motor, dead pixels, overheating battery, etc) - those wont go away

Ive had a customer come in with blazing hot battery issues as well as some wierd black dot rt in the center of his screen. Ive had others come in with gps and poor signal quality. The bummer part of it is the battery not being able to pulled as i had a customer who got his wet for a couple seconds (now I know this isnt a phone issue) so he couldnt use the reg rice trick as the bat was still in the phone and shorting out the device.
other than that seems ok though

could always hold power for 10 sec, once in the off state, hold vol- while it reboots, boot into bootloader, select fastboot, select power off.

I threw together a post in the official battery stat thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27106429&postcount=55
But I went from 2.5 hours (12 hours of total time) of screen time to now 5 hours (1+ days). So they helped me.
I am feeling much better about the yellow screen. It was driving me nuts when I first noticed it. I started using 'screen adjuster' app and added blues. But now I don't even use it because the whites (and warmness) have dissipated a bit.

you do know that you can use an alternate launcher, right?? Just download Apex or Nova launcher from the market to get your AOSP fix for now..
