Bring it on!!!!! I'm enjoying Sense, I just want to rid of all the bloat crap from within the phone.
Lord on this day I am thankful for the bountiful spread of food I am about to consume, that I decided to pull the trigger on the DNA without root at the time, for Android, and for the devs that found a way to release the insane power this phone holds within.
Amen.

From what I gather, NO HTC phone without an SD card has been able to achieve s-off. Could be another reason VZ commissioned this phone without an SD, but I'd bet it has more to do with forcing cloud usage and streaming on the masses. Too bad I paid outright for this beast and will be raping VZ data whenever possible..
Anyway, s-off isn't a huge deal, really just means we have to flash kernels from fastboot.

Surprisingly I'm really enjoying all the eye candy that Sense brings to the table. Of course aosp is great, but sense isn't really a memory hog like it used to be since phones have so much ram and faster processors than some laptops

I just got the X2 and it's been running fine for me. It seems with the Tegra 2, this phone would possibly be able to handle Android 4.0 whenever it comes out. With the lack of development, what are the chances that the X2 will just ride with GB until its death? I like so far how the phone is working well out of the box, but in 1-1.75 years when the phone shows its age, I would like to mod it here and there to get some more life out of it.
No phone is future proof. The Tegra3 is around the croner for tablets, and phones wont be that far behind. I would bet 4g phones get the Tegra3, so if 4g is a negative for a select crowd, the DX2 may be the last great 3g phone. It will be interesting to see if they continue supporting a high-end 3g line.
I would imagine ICS would run fine on OG DX much less DX2. I would say there is a small, but possible chance a stock DX2 would die on GB. But the dev will bring it regardless.
Edit: And at this point I am 100% satisfied with everything I have flashed on DX2. What did DX have? Liberty and Apex. And yes a good bit of themes. But the devs here have a ton of scripts I never saw on DX and the themes have been coming fast, and are of good quality. The eclipse ROM has branched to AOSP, so both crowds should be happy. I personally stuck with 2.2 and couldnt be happier.
Jrummy can choke on his Charge
That's good to hear. ICS seems like it's going to be a new experience and I would hate to miss out on it. I'm a "noob" and so I can't demand things and my understanding is limited, but the bootlock seems to be restricting development

The G2X was a failure device anyways. so is the Tegra 2, i realized that after owning the Atrix. T-mobile or LG (whichever one or both) took the G2X off the walls for a good reason lol

No NEON. IMO, that is a fail toward Nvidia since they are supposed to be "revolutionary" and all. The atrix didnt have support for a lot of apps for a long time and became annoying as hell. it needed so much optimization as well since Nvidia didnt do much at all lol. The only good thing about it was the games, which our snapdragons are just as good.. Maybe it got better with drivers, im talking quite a few months back. whenever i got my sensation from the atix i was so happy. (i had CM 7 on the atrix no motocrap) so cant blame it on bloat lol. the g2x was a fail because its plauged with so many issues. makes our screen bleed look perfect. people who complain about it should go to that phone xD

Well I just ordered the Rezound after moving from Sprint. Just wanted to say Hi some forums appreciated that. Not sure if I will do a ROM for this device but who am I kidding? Anyway just wanted to stop in an say Hi. Got the device coming FEDEX from Verizon for $99 bucks. I was waiting for the One but since HTC is taking it over to AT&Ts ****ty network I'm going to go to this. Pretty excited about it the phone really has everything I want. Anything I need to know? From what I have read you guys are using HTC Unlock and flashing kernels with fastboot? Is that about right? Thanks.

Hey Zone. Great to see you on the Rezound forum Unlocking and rooting is fairly easy but I was a bit gun shy at first. Tried to read up a bunch first if that make sense. lol. I really don't mess around too much with custom kernels because I feel the stability and speed is already good enough with custom roms. But I'm sure custom kernels bring this device to another level. Anyway, just wanted to say hi.
Also Cleanflash is a great way to flash boot.img. Scott did a great job with it.

Not really I have cut way back. Someone started doing a boat load of free ones which pushed me out of that market. Plus we still can't edit m10s (Sense 3.5) which is a big problem for me. When I go to make this ROM blue I wont be able to remove all the green. That drives me a little crazy.

lol. That's the truth. Wimax speeds were about the same for me here but the difference is LTE has more coverage in my town overall. Less dead spots for sure. Only thing that has surprised me since switching is there have been at least 4 LTE outages this year. It seems like when they go down, I can't even get 3g it goes right to 1x which is dreadful. But I'm sure they are going to iron this out.
Haha.. funny to see you switch over too. It's funny how that works. Amazing how long that EVO battery lasts when it's NOT attached to the NOT-now Network.
The speeds/switch capacity issues/discount change finally did it in for me too.
Glad to see friends on the other side!

ICS currently has a touch screen bug (big, for me) where sometimes you swipe in one direction and it 'jumps' the other way. May be the kernel.
GB is stable and working great. All of the GB ROMs are stable as a rock.
I use Ineffabilis. Lots of great features, and 100% stock base. Nothing stability-wise touched.
Every single non-stock kernel has stability issues with most peoples' rezounds (even without overclocking). The dual 1.5ghz doesn't seem to need an overclocking (this is the first phone I've ever felt that way about), so it doesn't bother me.
Stock kernel is great, and everything works. Some great Devs here, and it's getting busier by the week as our phone gets more attention.
Welcome, sir!

Not without a lot of debate, I have decided to move on from the Rezound. I just wanted to drop a quick note to the community thanking everyone for their help and to our devs that did such great work with the ICS leaks and Sense 4 development!
This was the first android phone that I unlocked and it's been a lot of fun. Now don't flame me, but after getting the Nexus 7 I realized how much I prefer stock Google... so I've traded in for the GNex. It's a little too big, and the radio is kinda weak, but I'm ok with the trade offs.
If anyone is in the market, I have a sweet Rezound package on ebay.
All the best everyone!
Too bad you're leaving.. since HTC released the ics kernel source there are some pretty nice AOSP("stock Google") Roms out right now.. still have a few small kinks but they're being ironed out as we speak =)

to be honest you cant compare the nexus experience with rezound because the nexus aosp experience is so much smoother and bug free you cant go wrong with it, only phone that i can actually say keeps up with the nexus in aosp is the sgs3

I am with you!
My next phone will be a nexus purchased directly from Google to get updates directly from Google and always have the latest android os. I am generally pleased with stock rooted.
This will require giving up Verizon's network. If tmobile data isn't good, then perhaps will carry a Verizon jetpack.
I still have over a year left on my Verizon contract, so you are ahead of me.
I have been kind of looking around for a few days and i have seen people having a few issues and i have seen several roms but im hoping you guys can answer me a few questions.
Is there a SafeStrap like app that works with this phone? I am coming from a BIONIC and that was really nice to have.
Is there a vanilla android rom or is it all stock modified?
Lastly are there any known issues i should be aware of?
Thanks guys.

1)There is a DNA version of CWM and TWRP
2)not at this time
3)You should be aware that there is a high chance your phone will come with the latest update installed. At this time there is no root or Bootloader unlock for that. Be prepared to run stock sense for a bit

No vamilla roms but its being wotked on. Check original development forum. It's coming along.
As for issues i haven't experienced much but hot reboots are more common on custom roms than in previous phones. I haven't experienced it but lots of people in forum have. My previous phones are droid 3 and galaxy nexus for reference

Do you have any experience with them on the DNA? I tried using some on a phone before and it totally screwed up the phone even tho it was in the supported list.
Thanks all for the replies. So it looks like this is a pretty rock solid phone besides the audio sync issues then, or have those been resolved as well.

I had the Droid Razr and used safestrap, actually just found it in a backup folder on my laptop, anyway no "safestrap" for the DNA but yes on recovery just like safestrap. I have used both. The DNA is still a WIN phone if you can root or not. MY Razr was great and I love the DNA, no SDcard was a bummer, 16GBs is fine with me tho.
#1 thing you want to look for is the 1.15 under settings/about/software information 3rd line from the top, if you're lucky it'll say 1.15..xxxxxx if it says 2.04.605.2 710RD we are currently waiting for DEVs to figure out if they can unlock the bootloader. Now if you can buy a DNA with 1.15 you can unlock and root that on that version or unlock that version, keep the unlock.bin file then upgrade to 2.04 then unlock with that unlock.bin from 1.15 and finally root and do what you like.
If you go to Verizon to buy the phone just don't let them update it. Tell them you heard its buggy and you'll wait for the next one or what ever, tell them you won't buy it if it's updated, just don't let them update it.
Hope this helps. Its a good phone regardless.
Please! Please!
See this thread before buying a DNA or you will be VERY upset. Especially if you are paying retail!

That's an informative thread tusctwo, but rooting aside it's still a kickass phone. These guys will get it. Anything is crackable. I bought the DNA before I new it could be rooted and was very happy with it. Rooting was just a bonus to let me do alil more with the phone. It is not the end of the world if one cannot root, plus there is always sending it away to be JTAGGED=rooted and S-off, it's a win win situation either way.
Thanks for the info guys. Ill definitely check the version before i buy.
Didnt realize this does not have an SD card, that may be a deal breaker for me. (I need some place to store all my midget porn! :laugh
In all serious ill have to think about the no SD thing.
Also the HTC overlay is a huge turn off for me. Why do they have to make that thing so draining? Ughh. I had a friend with an HTC phone and it was night and day difference when we loaded a vanilla rom on there. Same with my HTC tablet. The Sense UI is cool looking but geez the amount of resources it sucks up is crazy.
So is the Internal storage partitioned like the BIONIC? 8 GB for os and then the other 8 for whatever?
I am coming from a BIONIC and this is the only phone that it makes sense to even consider upgrading to right now. The rest are pretty much the same specs. Dual core 1gb ram. The 2gb ram is huge for me. I hate having barely 100 mb free all the time.
After a complete, initial first boot, setting up, etc, you will have just over 11 gb to use as you please.

You'll have 11 gigs of space.
And sense isn't a huge hog, and hasn't been for over a year now. It doesn't stutter and I usually have 500 mb to a gig of free ram.

I came from a Thunderbolt which had the old Sense on it and the new Sense 4+ is a ton better in comparison. I use apex as my launcher so my home screen isn't dependent upon the limitations of any manufacturer launcher... but the HTC apps (phone, contacts, and especially mail) are all way better than stock android IMO. And I really like the Sense lock screen which has great quick launch apps.
Just my opinion and all, but if you're using the old Sense as a foundation for opinion then I would suggest checking out the new version.
Also I'd like to point out the camera on this thing... it's phenomenal. I love the ability to take full res photos while recording 1080p video.
One more point... if space is an issue I would suggest using the free SyncMe app in the play store to copy your pics and video into a folder on your PC wirelessly and on a schedule (mine runs at 4am when I'm sleeping)... then you can take them off of the phone and still have them saved. If you sync it with your Google Drive folder then all of the pics and video will still be available on your phone as well.
I hope this helps a little.
My advice.. the DNA is not worth it at this point. It is not going to have official Sense 5 support.. and it's already locked down pretty bad at the moment. Also, you are not wrong about Sense 4+ on this device. it lags and stutters at times.. I swear to god the app switching is even slower than double-clicking the home button and switching apps on the iphone!...The quad-core is probably good only if you are running quadrant scores periodically to feel happy about a "powerful" phone.. but otherwise for everyday usage.. the phone is simply not up to snuff for that kinda hype and money.
You are better off buying a Motorola Razr HD (even though it's got a ****ty camera compared to dna). ..

Who says it won't get official sense 5, it most likely will.
I have no clue how you can make this phone stutter.
And for app switching, that's why you root your phone. The sense 5 one is amazing.

I read somewhere sense 5 is only coming to butterfly (the international version of dna).. and not to dna. You can look it up.

They've confirmed it's coming to the butterfly, no one ever said it isn't coming to the DNA, they just never specifically mentioned it

I hope so.. but this I can guarantee.. by the time sense 5 comes to droid dna (IF at all it comes).. this phone will be seriously outdated and old.
Actually lately Verizon has been pushing out a lot of updates and this is their current flagship so I can't see why it wouldn't get sense 5.
