I, just yesterday, obtained S-OFF.. after reading up on the instructions thread for a while on several different days, I felt confident I'd do it fine... and I did, on 2nd try
Anyways, when I returned to Newts One XxX rom, the internal AND external SD storage were broken, and tried and failed many times to fix them both, I believe I had a broken installation of Busybox (in Newts OneXxX rom? like baked-in? idk)
So after a few ROMs I tried, I finally got one to boot, RezROM S4....
Everything is working PERFECTLY and I'm glad I finally have a stable set up.. HOWEVER there is ONE little issue... :l
If I do anything sound-related, where the sound would come out of the speaker on the phone (the back one, not the ear piece speaker), the phone immediately hangs and restarts....
I noticed when I was attempting to change the ringer volume, I heard nothing, and when the volume popup went away, it went to black and restarted... I tried to check a voicemail, got to where I need to enter my VM password (earpiece speaker works fine) and I hit the first 2 numbers and it froze on the second (and made no noise...)
Anyone know what's going on?? I DID search the RezROM S4 thread before this, but I couldn't find anything relevant... And I'm under 10 posts I think, so I can't post in the thread just yet...
Thanks for the help, folks!
~sidenote~ : I was driving home last night at about 1AM from a neighboring town (15min away), and my phone was in a (non working, boot/hang) state, AND GUESS WHO RAN OUT OF GAS.
EDIT: I can't fathom what the problem is :/ ... I think I'm gonna wait until Newt releases his new OneXxX build, flash it and flash the MMS fix and hope that works out okay. I just want a stable Sense 4 rom lol. Sorry I just realized what I said
Sounds like you need to flash the old firmware patch. I'm guessing you were on gb?

No I bought the phone from a man who had an older ICS firmware installed, he had the pre-rooted OTA leak (4.0.3 / Sense 3.6 ), then I updated to the very newest FW 3.11.605.22 , and installed Newts OneXxX which worked like a charm.
Then I S-OFFed and installed RezROM S4 ... :/ That's where I'm at now.

Latest HomeBase (BLUR with kernel). When I first got the phone after a few hours you cannot hear or speak. You have to restart the phone in order to make or take a phone call. Assumed using a new rom would fix it considering the Sprint OTA fixed it but I still have the issue. After anywhere between 2 hours and 8 hours of the phone being on is when the problems start.
It was my understanding this was Software related but after trying a few roms with the same problem I don't know? Should I just go back to stock and install the OTA? Roms are cool but being able to talk is better.
I would. Also you should have posted this in the Q&A section or in the homebase rom thread.

What version of the Home Base rom are you on? I'm on v1.5 with the 4.2 update and have no issues. So perhaps you could try that one? And I had that issue until the OTA update too.

To start, this isnt any type of development so it should be posted in general....
My question to you is do you have a Sprint airave in your home? That was the issue i had. If the problem is in custom roms try stock again.

I've recently flashed v1.5 and updated with 4.2. Loved it except that when I tried to download anything in the market it would tell me that there was insufficient space on my device. I had even reformatted my external and internal storage. Then I tried using the marketfix.zip. It would say it was downloading and then disappear from my notifications. I was wondering if you were having this problem at all?
The only time I have had a market issue was when I first flashes the ROM and it was the old market then it dud a little song and dance and ypdated to the new market at which point anything I was downloading prior was gone. But after that haven't had any issues. Is this the issue you are having? If not.....try to reflash the ROM

So I bricked my phone this morning trying to downgrade and stuff and I got a replacement.."
I now got this one down to flashing meanrom 3.7, did a superwipe, updated radios and everything and now I'm having this problem...
When someone calls me, it rings twice and after that my phone rings for like half a second and then goes to missed call and on the other end they get sent to my vm...
Also I can send texts use 3g and everything but I cannot receive texts...
Can I please get some help this is getting frustrating x.x
It is really frustrating to have your phone not working and be waiting on help and watch the views go up but no responses lol goddamn it
I would either try reflashing the rom or going back to either meanrom 3.5 or 3.6.
you might also want to install 4ext recovery to install meanrom.
I have been having issues with random reboots on 3.7 but I didnt have an issue with 3.5 I have not tried 3.6.
That is the best answer I can give you.
I agree, maybe its the rom. Do a full wipe and flash the stock rom to see if its still happening.
We're comin from a pure power source.
I did try that, I went with freezas~ all in one update at first then I was told to use xhausx's but after I tried to update my PRL I got put into error code 16
I just got it fixed by a sprint rep and I don't seem to have any troubles now, just a few questions as to how to manage my cpu on MeanRom, this Evo 3D has been a pain compared to my VM Intercept lol >.<
I think I have pretty much ran through every issue trying to root this phone, I even bricked one, sadly everything was going smooth I was getting everything in the first try, bricking/downgrade/etc everything was going good in the first try them baam, trying to update my radios I flash the wrong zip and I get put back in 1.5 with s-off and I was in a rush and re-bricked lol
ViperRom for the win!!
Why not try a different rom?

Not sure what is going on or if this even the cause. But I am not able to get emoticons any longer in either Handsense or GO SMS Pro. Is anyone else having this issue?
AM S-off and unlocked running Nils k5.7 Rom. Have restored from a couple of Nandroid backups with the same results.
Any help is always appreciated.

Yes, I just noticed this yesterday. I have used emoji before in the .10 ruu
So i did some testing from vzw to vzw from a user that has an iphone and she can send them all without any thing failing, however someone who has sprint iphone sends things ans some do not work ( most ). Another person who has boost ( also sprint ) sends corrupted emojis as well, not all, but most are bad.
I think this could be a carrier thing to be honest since this is the first time i seen this yesterday. Now who is to blame is unknown.
I have been using the .10 leek since it has come out and its been working fine til now

Thanks for the comeback. Occasionally I get one and it seems that it works after real text. Switched to Newts Sense 4.0 Rom and have a little better success. Also using Handcent. The ROM BTW is terrific. Fast and no errors up till now.

I still think this is a carrier thing IMO just b/c it works vzw to vzw.
Maybe someone else can confirm this?
Hi I have a s-off, rooted rezound. I never actually put the ics firmware onto it (still not exactly clear on how to do it). However I installed a few sense 4 roms and while most worked perfectly fine, all of them had the issue with the camera fc and crashing. I installed the camera that was posted as a fix to no avail. Do I need to update the firmware and how (detailed please, sorta new at this), or will I be stuck using desensed roms till the devs fix it?
Not positive but fc'ing cam is a sense 4 bug.

If you have face detection on, it could crash the camera.

The camera seems to be an issue. Some say to uncheck face recognition and then it works...I don't know. Mine works when I've needed it. Some also have had luck with 3rd party apps. Eventually it will get fixed. You don't have to 'fall back' to a desensed rom, there are several good roms out there not using sense 4.0.
Update the firmware..? Well, there is a post today hinting at something coming in the next two weeks. Perhaps the long awaited OTA. So you should update to the new firmware. Either with the update or with one of the leaks. NilsP has some instructions on running the RUU in post #3 of one of his ROMS...the sense 4 one I think. Check it out if you want.
That's odd. I've ran all the sense 4 roms here and the only one that gives me problems is one xxx but is rare.

I'll have to check the face recognition, I wasn't using it but it's worth a shot.
Anyone know of any hq camera apps to use if the default fcs again?
FYI - Since you're s-off, you don't need to flash a whole RUU to get the latest firmware, take a look at this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614366&highlight=firmware
Since you are running ICS on GB firmware, if you update, you need to flash the New firmware patch afterwards to revert what the old firmware patch does.
It won't help with your camera most likely cause as others has mentioned, it's a issue with Sense 4 roms for now, this makes it easier to upgrade though.
thanks mjones finally updating the firmware
I had a stock EVO 4G LTE running ICS, I upgraded OTA to Jellybean....had problems with the proximity sensor after the upgrade, so I put CM10 stable on it - and that worked fine for a month. Worked very well actually!
For curious reasons, I wanted to go back to the stock ROM and see if I was just imaging the issues (which Im not, others have reported), so I downloaded the "RUU_JEWEL_CL_JB_45_S_Sprint_WWE_3.15.651.16_Radio_1.12.11.1119_NV_2.87_003_25007_release_299302_signed"
I relocked the bootloader and installed the RUU. Installed fine. However, the phone was SUPER slow. The camera had problems too...but for example, Id make a call and it would ring and call time start, but 10 seconds later the phone would vibrate indicating the call went thru, even though I was a good 4-5 rings in.
So I went back to CM10 - the same exact version I went to before. It was still on my SD Card. Totally unstable. Freezing, rebooting, screen goes blank for no reason...just all sorts of weird problems. Would freeze and reboot during a call, but the caller would still be on the line!
I reflashed the ROM like 5 times, ever time clearing cache, davlik, factory reset, and system. Still completely goofy.
I read there was a problem with the 3.15 RUU, so I followed these directions here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2097150
But that still didnt help.
Right now Im back on the STock JB ROM. At least I can take phone calls with it, but I'd like to return to CM10.
Any suggestions would be VERY apprecaited!
Thanks.
More things I am noticing:
The Flashlight app doesnt work anymore
Camera doesnt work then causes the whole phone to become unresponsive.
Bump!
Can anybody help me out? Im dying over here without a phone that works.
the phone app keeps crashing. If i reboot, things work ok UNTIL I make a phone call....then nothing works.
Very strange!
I would try wiping 3 times

i say you should flash MEANBEAN, its a stable JB rom and some of the bugs like the proximity sensor have been fixed thanks to the devs here at XDA. its running very smooth for me. the only issue for me is that google's navigation doesnt work, but telenav works just fine. just wipe your phone about 3 or 4 times (i always do that to ensure i get a clean install on any rom). good luck!
I would re-download CM10 and verify checksum since you didn't mention that.

Thanks for the replies.
Really all I want to do at this time is go back to stock, which I currently am on.
But even on the stock 3.15 ROM, it is very very unstable. The phone is majorly delayed. I get 1 ring on incoming calls before it goes to voicemail - but the person calling hears the normal 5-6.
For CM10, I used the same zip file (stayed on my SD card) that I used without problem for almost a month.
I took the phone to sprint (back to stock) and they couldnt figure it out. Getting a replacement tomorrow.
Could I just have a coincidental hardware problem? Seems odd if that is the case, the phone was working perfectly until I went back to stock using the 3.15 RUU
I got my replacement phone last night, did an OTA upgrade to JB in the store and the proximity sensor didnt work...
was about to tell the rep to just order me a GS3, but I said hold off....I really prefer the 4GLTE over the S3
Went home and flashed Meanbean......WOW!
Just like stock, and the prox sensor works!
so my plan is to just keep this ROM until HTC fixes the issue in their next maintenance release.
in TWRP, i made a backup and selected all the options Is this sufficient to get me back to stock, then do an OTA upgrade for the maintenance release, if and when it comes out?
