I'm currently on rc4a because I was getting better speeds on t-mobile than on rcv. But I currently don't really see any utility in it. But I'm not sure how to go back to stock Rom? I mean I have a nandroid backup from when I first rooted which would take me back to stock. But I thought there was another way to get it just so I know for future reference.
Also is there a way i can get the overclock kernel on the stock Rom. Do I even need it because I have set cpu?
The one thing I did like from saurom rom is that it did remove the bloatware. Is there a better way i can do it or should I just remove or freeze it from titanium backup?
Will bln still work? I also still want my blaze modem but figure all I have to do is reflash it? Right?
I just think stock Rom is better for me since newer versions of saurom give me slower speed. Stock Rom won't be laggy will it?
Thanks in advance I know this is a lot of questions to answer. Really appreciate the xda and android community.

i cant answer all your questions. but have you tried flashing the collective the unofficial rom? i loved it. but i just put ICS on my phone. and dagr8 is creating a rom for that right now. its mostly all stock. just rooted so you have more access
No i havent flashed the unofficial..i didnt really like the look of it... How did you put ics on it? It isnt released yet, I'm assuming you put a ics theme or likewise? What rom are you talking about, is it made from one of the leaks? I would love to have a mainly stock vanilla ics rom!
Nvm i found it. This was such a suprise and here i was about to head off to bed. lol this sounds neat but i think ill wait a few days and see the reviews.
Yeah im sure if you wait a week or something there will be a new.awesome Rom for ics.

I looked at this thread...
Can anyone point me in the right direction to how I can get TMOUSA working on the rezound? I might buy this phone in a week...
Is there a specific rom I need to flash to get TMOUSA to work? Or is it Flash once, done?
Either install JoelZ's Sense 4.0 rom and use the GSM patch and then just toss your sim in.

Is it possible to use any rom, and use the GSMPatch?
The reason I'm getting this phone it's because it can work with TMOUSA, and it has a 720P display..
Also, I can't find any OC kernels... Is there any kernel for rezound that OC to around 1.7/1.8Ghz?

No stable GB kernels that overclock and there are overclock ICS kernels if you search. The rezound is really fast at stock clocks though. There isn't much reason to OC.
Not sure why you are so opposed to using the roms I mentioned. Joel's sense 4.0 rom which the GSM patch is meant for is by far the best rom.

Oh, I love his roms, I'm just wondering if I can use other roms.
Sorry, I'm new...
I'm from the LG G2X, thinking of getting rezound.
Is it hard to S-Off? On a scale of 10 what is it out of?
Can I flash any kernel/any rom using the HTCDev method(S-ON)?
Just to confirm, the GSMFix is 100%, SMS, Data, Call. Right?
Sorry for many questions, I want to make sure of everything before I buy this phone.

LOL any phone would be an upgrade from the G2X.
S-OFF is probably a 2 on a scale of 10. It looks WAY harder than it is.
You can flash any kernel/rom with S-ON, but it is not a convenient. I recomment S-OFF immediately. It makes it much easier to recover your phone too if any issues arise.
GSM Fix is 100%. You will get T-Mobile 3G, texts, calls, etc.
However, since you are on tmobile, I would recommend a One series since you are a GSM user.

I don't want the One S, Pentile display, battery, no SD.
The one X is too expensive. ( Rezound is about $300, One S is about $425, One X is about $550)
So this will work with TMOUSA 3G, or is it just EDGE?
With S-Off, I can just flash kernel, and roms with CWM right?
^^ Can't I flash roms and kernel with S-On on CWM?

Don't use CWM. Use AmonRa or TWRP.
Don't worry about what S-OFF allows you to do. Just S-OFF the device. 3G should work fine as well as edge.

I got used to TWRP in the G2X...
Hm, I'll see you guys in a few weeks! ;D
Anyway, I can't find any OC ICS kernel.... Can you link me, if possible?
The only thing I'm reluctant about the rezound is the thickness.. :|

The thickness isn't really that bad, it's a beautiful phone IMO.
You want thickness get the extended battery for all day power users. With an extra extended battery you can pretty much go anywhere and not worry about losing power. The phone still fits in your pocket and chicks dig it
Don't worry about an OC kernel. You won't be able to control the scaling properly. In my use leaving kernel as is provides the best battery life.

The phone didn't come till November. Gb was basically dead at that point. Stupid to make kernels for it. We still haven't received the ics kernel source from HTC. So our options are limited until that happens.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA
the one s is not pentile display and from what reviewers have said, it has the best QHD screen right now. Just remember that a 720p screen sucks way more battery than a QHD. I would do the one s personally instead of trying to rig a verizon phone on t-mobile. Pretty sure the one s is hspa 42 (at least 21).

Where can I find?
In the stickies in development I just see all the ICS ones
I think there are only ICS modems right now. When and if JB is official then we may see some modems.
Correct me if I am wrong.

There are yet to be any JellyBean modems, as far as i know. You could try to flash an ICS Modem (not sure if it would brick phone or not). Best thing to do is just wait!
A modem is not dependent on the android version. There is no such thing as an ICS or GB or JB modem. Flash any you want.

If that is the case, how do I figure out what modem a ROM is using? While using xXX I got great coverage. On new liquid, not as good it seems.
So I could find out and flash over with the XXX modem and be happy? Or are there other considerations?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Just download a few modems to your sd card and flash one, let it settle on for several hours, and decide if you keep it or dump it. Then move on to the next candidate. Eventually you will find the modem that gives best results for your area. I like the LF6 modem.
I've tried various roms, and none of them would give me LTE no matter which modem I used. Best I could do is 4G at non-LTE speeds. I really like JB, but have gone back to stock ICS on my Rogers Note, so that I can enjoy the LTE capabilities of my Note (after all it aint an iphone 5!) LOL Probably will have LTE in some of the roms soon enough, either that of official JB!

You can get LTE w/ Rogers for any of the ROM's posted, whether they are TW based, CM9/CM10/AOSP/AOKP.
Just requires some tweaking.
If you need help, let me know.
<--Rogers in Toronto - Currently on Paranoid JB ROM, my LTE speeds are between 25-42MB depending on where I am.

4G is LTE. Since the modem is the same for JB, the speed difference you're seeing is either an incorrect APN or simple Placebo.
For myself, I know I need to set a different APN to get full speeds on LTE.

Hopefully you are judging LTE speeds on your phone using something like the speedtest site or app and NOT the little icon that appears in your notification area.
On the liquid jellybean rom the 4g icon IS LTE speed as verified by the above mentioned app. You should flash the Rogers modem for best results.
I am with Bell mobility and use the MUGLF4 modem with liquid jb rom. My speeds in an LTE area in the GTA average about 25 mbps down and about 12mpbs up although I once hit the theoretical limit of 75mpbs in the Dufferin and Major Mackenzie area. I think they must have been doing some testing that day. . I haven't been up there since.
Around Yonge and Steele's, I get 25mbps every day. My phone shows the 4g icon...
I never get LTE because it isn't available in my region.

I'm on Bell with a MUGLF4 modem / KingKang M1 (nov 10) JB 4.1.2 and my phone app FC when receiving or ending a call!
My Speed is around 8mb down and 2mb up (was 14mb/8mb on stock bell)
Should I try a newer Modem?
Any advice welcome

Are you 100% sure? The above reply said "(not sure if it will brick your phone or not)" Definitely don't wanna do that.

I've decided that i've had enough of the problems/bugs with ICS and JB. The last time my phone worked great was when it was running GB. So what's the best one to get other than stock T-mobile?
Try them and see for yourself what works best for you.

With every ICS ROM I tried I had poor cell reception and awful battery life, even the stock T-Mobile one. JB is great but it doesnt work well for making phone calls and the lack of Flash is brutal. I've already searched for GB ROM's but it seems that the consensus is they're all bad and the good ones (Bulletproof, NRGY) arent available for download anymore.

I believe that one can use Flash on JB, it just has to be downloaded from the website (it is not available in the Play store).
My sister in law recently got an S3, and we had to go to the site to get flash.

Yeah I had to get an apk from the site for 4.0.4 ICS on my gs3 as well... Along with jb...
And I get the complaints about ICS on the amaze. I ran GB and ICS on my amaze and the cell reception and battery life are both significantly worse on ICS than GB. Same for jb compared to ICS on the S3. I liked sense 3.5 GB most on the amaze... But that was just my personal take

Lol no porn. I cant watch any Youtube videos unless its within the Youtube app which is incredibly buggy and doesnt work half the time. When I click play on an embedded Youtube video it goes straight to the end and will not play. Oddly enough other video sites will often work if they dont use Flash like Vimeo.
Maybe I need another coffee before modding. Normally we close "best ROM" threads before they cause fights. Maybe you could change the name to "where can I find a GB ROM?"

Well, It's funny as I wanted to post the same. I tied pretty much every ROM here, ICS and JB. The worst offenders for me was BT on JB, even cm10 is no go. The other issue is the signals for both ics and JB alike. One time is three bars and then no service. Even someone with same service provider can still make calls standing beside me but I couldn't. Then in low signal areas, my phone would burn a hole in my pocket and battery would be dead in couple hours.
GB is pretty consistent in signals and no heating issues. Bt works fine too, so I am back with trusty old no frills GB. At least it works......

After encountering even more bugs with the latest version of CM10 I finally broke down and installed QuickSense 3.0 which takes it all the way back to Android 2.3.4, but you know what? EVERYTHING works. The interface may not be a slick looking as ICS or JB but it really isnt much slower in comparison. For anyone else who is frustrated and just wants a working phone, try this ROM out.
I dont know if i'm allowed to post a link to it or not but you can find it easy enough by googling it.
I downloaded a bunch including the original ics rooted and deodexed by hasoon. But before going back stock tried speed Rom 1.4 and is been working fine. There is also Kumars 0.4 but haven't tried yet. I am good till we get a bug free cm.
