I have a Vivid, a friend of mine on Verizon has a Droid Bionic. Been having some issues with it and obviously it's a Motorola so it's locked down. He asked if I'd recommend the rezound. From what I've seen the rezound doesn't have ics yet and I imagine it'll be the same terrible sense infested 3.6 pos that's on my phone. My real question is, does s-off require a wire trick and are there any cm builds for it? Based on my phone imo I can't recommend because development wise its kind of a dead end.

Same s-off wire trick, same pos sense 3.6 tho you can get sense 4 roms. No CM yet... Almost there but not yet.
That's an advantage over the vivid definitely as sense 4 isn't possible due to ril restrictions imposed by at&t. Still sounds just like the vivid though as not being the most developer friendly

Yeah nowhere near the development of the nexus or anything but it's not too too bad
The Rezound certainly has been a ruff road to follow development wise. It is an awesome device with stellar specs. The one downfall is the device is still waiting on full AOSP support. Apparently though one of our developers did have a break through the other night with getting LTE data working. So hopefully it won't be very long yet as he is just basically working out one final bug before he releases his work to the community.
One thing is for sure, the Rezound has awesome radio support, so signal wise its pretty much the best out there. Atleast in my opinion.

Me personally yeah but some dudes are going to come in here and talk about development and that the camera and the screen is superb.

Cool I sent him a link to this thread. Definetly sounds like the Rezound isn't as locked down as my vivid.
So I doubt my friend would be willing to do the wire trick, as I haven't done it on my Vivid, however I know on the Vivid you can get by fine with s-on, you just gotta flash boot.img through fastboot before you flash a rom in recovery. Same ordeal pretty much? I'm guessing so, internally our phones our identical aside from the radios and the rezound being clocked 300mhs faster. They are both HTC sensations at their core lol

Not even in the same league. He needs to make the swap before they change their mind!

Yeah I've left my vivid s on mainly because the screw with a sticker that says void. Honestly for the Vivid its not necessary unless you haven't gotten an ota yet, but it does make flashing more convenient as I pretty much have to get on my PC to flash roms.
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2
Tell him to get it man. Like it was said before, the rezound is way above league then the bionic. Both the Rez and Nexus have their strong points, overall most people agree that the rezounds strong point is hardware, and the nexus is software. Though ill tell you that Newts Sense 4 is amazing, and I have been using it since his original release, it only keeps getting better.
And if chad can pull off a lock on 4g, with Aosp, the rezound will only be arguably the best phone on Verizon.

If this is true I guess I'll have to 'hand-me-down' my Rezound to my wife like I did with the DROID Incredible 1.

yeah but the specs still don't match that of the rezound, according to the rumors.
its HTC'S Mid range device like the ONE S for verizon
thunderbolt 4g → rezound (high-end)
incredible 2 → incredible hd (mid-range)
And you would think the 'Incredible' would be a high end device by name alone! Bastards..

Correction
Droid Incredible → Rezound.
The Rezound feels like the Dinc did in its launch which is great I love my Rezound, everything reminds me of the Dinc. The Dinc 2 felt like a completely different phone, still great but nothing like the Rez or Dinc.
blue snake is right... the Inc was the flagship, then the Inc 2 was nothing.. and the tbolt was nothing... and even though the rezound is nothing, it's much more like the Inc 1 instead of the tbolt

Indeed. If Verizon had their way with the Gnex, it woulda been loaded with just as much bloat as all the smartphones on VZW.

Galaxy S3. I am looking for something new.
I never thought i'd say this...but my next phone might be a Samsung. lol
I really wish HTC wasn't soooo blind and/or blatantly anti-consumer. It seems like Samsung got everything right with the gs3 while the new line of HTC phones still have quite a few things that I really don't like about them.
I haven't finalized my decision by any means, but as of now, i'm definitely leaning towards the GS3.
Everything was looking so good right up until the screen...F That crap...not even going to give pentile display a 2nd thought after seeing the Galaxy Nexus up close.

new evo ... locked in battery
gs3 for me
The answer would be easy if HTC would listen to the community. But since Samsung makes their devices developer friendly its a hard not to go with them. Even with the screen quality being less than the Evo LTE. The Evo is guaranteed to be locked and I can't stand being restricted. HTC also doesn't give out source code so our devs can't build functioning roms. Thats why I'm leaning Samsung
Coming from the rezound in June. I was happy with the way the one x looked and thought that's what I'd be getting, then the evo let design came out. It kind of bummed me but it's growing on me. The sg3 just doesn't have a good enough design for me. I like the lte's look better. Still wish it looked like the one x though :/. Oh well I still can't wait.

Hello,
I recently switched to tmobile and am looking to buy a phone to use. I've been looking at HTC Sensation, HTC Amaze, and Galaxy S2. I was thinking to go with HTC Amaze, but I ran into many issues discussed on the net. So, here's my question. Should I buy this phone? Are the issues that bad? Or, can they be resolved by simply installing custom ROMs? I'd appreciate any advice you can give me. Thank you.
GT
I dealt with all 3 of them. GS2 is a POS. Sensation is has older harder (but better ROM development) and i love my Amaze. Does all I need it to do. You should get an Amaze.
Agreed with hasoon
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using xda app-developers app
Although I love my Amaze its getting to the point where its becoming outdated and unsupported. I would go another route. IMHO.
Depends what you are looking for...
Pros:
- Decent Specs.
- Nice camera.
- microSD.
Cons:
- Due to HTC and the lack of source ROM dev isn't as plentiful as other phones.
- Issues with the back plate not fitting right and making creaking noises.
- Larger device (thickness).
- Sense (for me at least).
- Horrible backlight bleed from the buttons.
- Lackluster battery life.
If I was to go back in time, I would have picked up a Galaxy Nexus over the Amaze.
I was choosing among those phones too (including the blaze). Chose the amaze because it's screen was way better than Samsung crappy pentile offerings and it had a dedicated camera button. Battery life is pretty mediocre even with an anker extended battery. Battery life is a huge weakness since HTC refuses to release wireless source.

I got my new device, SGN1, and love it. I have noticed the the Amaze camera is better even though the SGN1 has higher resolution. I'll still be using it just not as often.
Not that impressed with the galaxy nexus 4. It's a great value proposition but early reviews are not the greatest. The more cores you have the more battery problems you have. The LG camera is mediocre and I am not sure of the build quality. 16gb is still a joke IMO. Give me a 32gb option at least.
Staying with the Amaze because of the camera, camera button, removable battery, storage options. I am not upgrading to a phone with less features no matter what. I think HTC will come out with something decent next spring for T-mobile. Something like AT&T's One X+ but with a dual core Krait instead. I'd rather have S4 than Tegra at this point; better battery life.

First of all i would like to say a huge THANK YOU to the developers that have put their time and energy into the DNA.
Secondly i just wanted to inquire if there would be any possibility of the DNA getting Key Lime Pie (when it releases of course) with the assistance of the talented developer repertoire?
There's a possibility i'll win the lottery tomorrow.
So I would say yes, there is a possibility.
With HTC's track record and this being a Verizon only device, I would bet on no. Not to mention that they have already shifted their focus to the M7 which seems to be headed for a multi-carrier release. I'm sure they will go (almost) all-in with the M7 since it might make or break them in a lot of ways.
Just my opnion, but like was said above, anything is a possibility.

I'm not so sure VZW will be getting the M7 though.
and to the OP, we most likely won't see KLP officially on our phone, but considering the M7 is mostly the same hardware as the DNA, It SHOULD be easily ported. I had a rezound that had ICS and Sense 4 long before ICS was officially supported on the phone and that phone NEVER officially got Sense4.
not to mention someone already has Sense 5 on their DNA (sense 5 being released with the M7)
Has Key Lime Pie actually been talked about anywhere besides rumors though?? just curious.

The only "con" I can see is .3" smaller of a screen than the DNA. Other than that, it is mostly an improvement over the DNA.

Not enough of a difference to make me say I regret getting the DNA.

If you already have the DNA, you shouldn't regret it. I doubt the M7 will be a night and day difference in performance. It all depends on Sense 5 for noticeable performance gains imo.

i dont regret getting my DNA. its an excellent phone. Key Lime Pie is slated for a release sometime in May, so i was just wondering if the DNA would get it in one way or the other. I mean, my OG Incredible got a Jellybean port lol
Since i believe htc +verizon just upgraded tb to ics any thing is possible..

Your son most likely has it on full brightness and playing games all day because if you're comparing the battery life with the tb...oh man... But battery isn't bad at all

Yea, it doesn't have any of the red accenting (or anything similar to that) that gives the DNA it's premium feel.
Also, I believe that the DNA will get KLP since its so popular and such a super phone.

Yeah I am very interested to see how sense 5 is. I like 4+ but I hope that the scrolling from screen to screen isn't so heavy. That's the only reason I use nova prime on this phone.
