just got my rezound(came from thunderbolt) a few days ago and so far so good...using the clean rom....i am missing my cyanogen rom though....my question is this how can such an awesome phone not have a fully functional cyanogen rom? i don't care if its official or not but from what i can find there is no daily drivers for this...anyone know why?
cm9 is being worked on, we need to get RIL working. cm7 won't happen as the devs don't see the need for anymore GB based roms.
i see...the main thing i miss is the force close by long pressing the back button

I feel ya, you could download one of the senseless roms out there, they provide a almost aosp experience and the leedroid tweaks included are really usefull

Why force quit apps?
Android is evolved enough to close items itself if neesed. Or if on ICS you can hold HOME till your apps show up and flick them away to remove them from memory.
I miss long press force close as well. It was very useful when an app was misbehaving. Simply long press the back button instead of going to application settings and force closing.

I almost went back to the Thunderbolt from the Rezound because of this. Hanging on hoping that s-off happens and kernel source are released to see where things go from there.
The Rezound is much better hardware (screen! and proc.) but the Thunderbolt was CM heaven.

Whenever i charge my phone, display remains on unless i press the power button to put it on stand by..in 2.3 there are so many applicsations running in the background which makes it a bit laggy..and flash doesnt work even in vignette..
Flash issue in vignette is related application, and i hear vignette dev are on their way to fix it.
Are you on stock rom? Rooted or not?
You can remove some bloatware and useless apps from SE with Titanium backup if your phone was rooted.

I've a similar issue on my GF's phone, almost same problem, the light won't turn off for a long time unless pressing power button but her phone is an x8.
But this shouldn't happen on the stock 2.3.3.
i am using the stock 2.3, 2.3 is nice but i sort of miss 2.1, it was much faster..

about slowness problem : i highly recommend you to root your phone. flash stock DooMKernel then flash WB ROM. it may take some time but your phone will be superfast.
Xrecovery will be installed with the kernel. and the three thread are in development forum. and don't be afraid. WB ROM is very stable without any bug.and totally a stock Rom.

Ive been searching for this for a while, i would like to be able to use the volume up button for my shutter in the default camera app. I saw some threads about this but either it wasnt compatible with my phone or it didn't work. Does anyone know of a mod that will do this for the AT&T S2? Thanks
To my knowledge they are working on it for our phone; however, this is a question and should be placed in the Q&A section in the future.

It's easy, but I'm not sure if I like it. I like using the volume buttons to zoom in and out. I was able to make long pressing the power button take pictures, but it also pops up the extended power menu lol. Hopefully I can figure out how to get a short power button press to take pictures instead of turning off the screen. It's a lot trickier on this phone than it was on the original galaxy s and infuse.

Looking forward to you getting the power button mod to work. That's definitely a feature I've been waiting for.

I've been using the volume up mod that I found from the i9100 forums for about a week. Used it quite a bit on my visit to Alcatraz over the weekend. It has tap to take direct picture or hold to focus and release to take a picture.The digital zoom is useless to me as all it does is just blow up a cropped imaged anyways. I'll attach it in case anyone wants to try (and as always, back up the old Camera.apk). Just push/copy to system/app

Yeah, was more worried about zooming with the volume buttons while recording 720p video. It would be a pain to record everything in 1080 and then run it through video editing software to do the zooming.
Guess I could do the volume button hack for photos only and leave it as zoom control for video recording.

I didn't think about the video recording part. BUT! I just gave it whirl and surprisingly enough, the volume keys don't start the recording and still function as zoom buttons. So it looks like the video recording part is untouched.

Awesome mod. I've been missing a physical camera button for awhile now! Pretty awesome thus far, however, I always get a force close on the camera app after I restart my phone. Anyone else encounter this and or find a solution other than reinstalling the app to make it work?
Thanks!

Same thing was happening to me but I fixed it! In root explorer go to system/app/camera.odex and rename the camera.odex to camera.odex.Bak
then reboot and it should be GTG!!!
Forgot: May have to reinstall the modded camera.apk after too as well.

I've got the zip file downloaded but haven't pulled the trigger on it yet. Stock is running real well for me and really haven't seen a feature that is a must have in a custom rom yet. Shoot, with Entropy's DD and stock rom, my phone is still blazing. Just to test things out, I've gotten a 5034 on quadrant so things are working awesome.
If this were my X10, I would be a flash whore because that thing needs optimization just like a crack head needs his next hit.

No. see the dates on this thread? ICS was a dream back then.
Some ICS builds have options for power button shutter/vol zoom.
i've searched and could not find...so basically what the title is....
is there anyway to make the home button the unlock button???
as i think the power button is almost as awkward as my atrix unlock button. just curious....i'm still running a stock rom..so i'm guessing if this option was available it would have to be in a custom rom...maybe cm7 as that has a lot of different options.
anyhow just a question.
Kind Regards
Matt
sorry i've been a spoon. i've asked the question, but not actually tried it! whoops. mod can close this!!!! my bad!!! i usually am more observant than this i swear!!! :S
Hi I'm running Villainrom 3.0.0 and if i hit home, wait until lockscreen appears then hit home again, it unlocks.
I'm sure this is not an added mod as VR is as close to stock as possible.
That could be useful but for the moment im going to be staying stock. My past android phones have always been better away front stock. But i do like this.

They are there, they're just on the screen now instead of below it. Honeycomb uses an on-screen navigation bar and does not officially support capacitive navigation buttons. In order to get the capacitive buttons back, you'll have to wait for a ROM that enables them, wait for ICS, or downgrade back to Gingerbread.
you really think they r going to port ics over soon

1. The LEEDroid custom HC ROM has the option to turn the hard buttons back on, but of course they are redundant and you cannot turn off the system bar on screen.
2. No ICS will not be soon, not functional anyway. There are some bootable SDK builds of ICS out there for some devices, but that's just for play. Lots of things like the touch screen don't work and you need the OEM to provide some stuff before a working build or port can be done. Once HTC has a working released ROM for a device (say EVO) with similar hardware a useful port might be possible.

No, not officially from HTC/Sprint. There's no guarantee that it will ever receive it officially. I'm sure the developers here will work on something as soon as they're able to, but there's no time frame on that. Probably later rather than sooner.

Ok I have a galaxy note i717. I have 2 problems that are absolutely horrible. One problem is if I recieve a phone call and have certain apps or games either open or were just open, my phone freezes. When I say freeze I mean all I hear is my ringtone, I have no way to answer, and my phone is a paper weight till I power cycle it, once I turn it back on I see no missed calls, and have no idea who called me. The other is I slide to unlock my phone and it is extreemely slow, I press a button and wait an average of about 3-5 seconds before it opens, and every button I push is just as slow, this problem seems random, but I think it has something to do with the other problem. I am right now running black jelly, it is not the rom as all the Jelly Bean Roms have this problem. One solution posted is to revert it to stock ics then have Samsung do the upgrade to Jelly Bean, then reroot it, same problem and did not change. I really want to get a good Jelly Bean rom that works for my i717. I can get any ICS Custom Rom to work correctly, so I will revert it just to get normal functionality, if no one knows how to fix this. This is the last thing I am going to try before reverting back to ICS. Any help is appreciated.

That made it much better I removed my screen saver, and also turned power saver mode off. After I changed that setting the phone worked correctly most of the time. It still runs slow sometimes, but I just turned power saving mode off, so we will see, thanks for the help, the ripple screen lock was doing something bad as it got much better when I removed it.
I tested my phone for a few days, it seems the phone call thing is fixed, thanks for the info about the ripple screen saver. Only problem I currently have is if I forget and leave my game running on a certain screen that is animated and it screen locks, when I unlock and start using the phone it is extreemely slow. A simple restart fixes it, and I am fine with that as my phone actually works correctly most of the time. I was researching the problem and the GPU settings may be the answer, but I have no idea what settings need to be set. One setting is Force GPU rendering ( use 2d hardware acceseration in applications) currently it is turned on. Was thinking also kill all background processes, I really don't know, Anyone out there an expert with GPU or how to finish tweeking my phone.
