Greetings!

One of things I would do is switch to Clockwork Mod Touch Recovery. I used to use TWRP and then it started to give me errors, but your installation process is solid and should work. :)

One of the nice features of Commotio and Vanir are that you can switch between the two ROMs easily just by flashing either one of the them after you've gotten a fresh installation. It makes updates EXTREMELY easy between the ROMs. :)

I hope this helps you!

Hi Damacy & Friends:

I have my HTC Rezound with the following:

PhoneROM: Global_OTA_BLUE-v2.5
Baseband version: 2.23.10.0123r, 2.23.10.0124r
Build Number: 4.05.605.14
UNLOCKED
VIGOR PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-2.28.0000
Recovery: TWRP v2.6.3.0

I would like to update my HTC Rezound with [4.4.3] Commotio KitKat...but I need your help about the Installation Process:

1. Boot up TWRP
2. Run CleanWIPE_1.0_-_Rezound.zip
3. Flash B66-commotio-vigor-060614.zip
4. Boot fully
5. Boot back into TWRP
6. Flash 6-2_GApps_Standard_4.4.3_signed.zip
7. Clean Cache and Dalvik
8. Reboot into Evervolv ROM

Questions:
- Do you agree with the Installation Process?
- What else do you recommend me to get a Good-Installation without problems?

Thanks in advanced for your help

I'm having issues with the status bar on my install. I did a clean install with clockwork touch. Installed gapps, etc. Every now and then when I drag the status bar down my screen expands and the launcher goes into what looks like a reboot and sometimes it gets stuck into a loop of reopening. Anybody else experience this? Thanks :)

Check the second post in my Vanir thread under Rezound Original Android Development. :) I have directions for turning on USB mass storage in there, you'd miss it if you didn't know where the settings were. I even did for the first 2 weeks of my original Vanir release, I thought USB storage didn't work! New build is being uploaded! :D I have the next Kang release baking right now.

Hi Damacy:

Thanks for your reply and thanks for the USB Mass Storage tip..I really need it

I have your Commotio ROM (B66-commotio-vigor-060614) with 6-2_GApps_Standard_4.4.3_signed in my Rezound and let me give you my first reactions as a feedback and some questions for you:

1. CDMA Signal is only 2 bars vs. 4 bars with Global_OTA_BLUE-v2.5
2. Settings/Device/More doesn't work
3. Settings/Wireless & Networks/More/Call Settings/Internet Call Settings...I loaded my SIP Account and doesn't work...with Global_OTA_BLUE-v2.5 worked
4. Google Now is working great!!!
5. Bluetooth is working :)

Questions:
a. What are the differences between Commotio ROM (B66-commotio-vigor-061314) and Vanir ROM (vanir_vigor_4.4.3.061314)?
b. How do you wipe/clean the internal sdcard before flashing?
c. Is Android 4.4.3 beta or final version?
d. Do you recommend me to update my Rezound with B66-commotio-vigor-061314 or stay with B66-commotio-vigor-060614?

Thanks

TecMan

Yes, on the last two versions of Vanir prior to 6-13, though not on the last Spec Ops version (5-11?) I'm trying out Omni at the moment, so I haven't followed up on it, but Omni keeps shutting down my phone a couple times a day so I'm willing to go back to Vanir or Commotion and test.

I'm having good luck with this most recent build 6-13. For me it's more reliable with less glitches than CM11. And so it is my new daily driver.
Thank you

No one on my team has given you permission to post official builds. Remove from the thread title. And list the actual developers in your op FFS.

If you have a problem with it you can talk to me through Google hangouts.

Don't know if anyone else is having this issue, but I'm having an issue with unresponsive softkeys on my Rezound with this ROM. It's not so much unresponsive but seems its not sensitive enough cause i have to play around with the button before it recognizes my finger being on it.

Are the keys only unresponsive when the phone is plugged in?

No, doesn't matter if its plugged in or not, i tap it repeatedly but doesn't seem to respond at all, sometimes if i spend a few minutes doing it, it'll respond and work. I just enabled to screen soft keys and disabled the hardware soft keys. I'm pretty sure this isn't related to the ROM cause I've seen this issue on another ROM also, but also seem to be seeing random shutdowns when i disconnect from my charger. Happens about once or twice a day.

    10-04-2014 - Updates because I can. :p I moved the ROM to my private server for hosting.

    08-03-2014 - Updated to 4.4.4! Get yo sleek on!

    06-13-2014 - Updated Vanir code base. Oh, hi. So, how are you holding up? BECAUSE I'M A POTATO.

    06-06-2014 - Updated to 4.4.3. Share and enjoy!

    06-02-2014 - More clean up in the Vanir code base. Its June, I figured we could use something fresh. We haven't entirely nailed down what element it is yet, but I'll tell you this: it's a lively one and it does not like the human skeleton.

    05-28-2014 - Theme chooser implemented! Let's be honest: Neither one of us knows what that thing does. Just put it in the corner, and I'll deal with it later.

    05-21-2014 - Removal of Performance Control during baking of the ROM, things just got nasty. >.< We fire the whole bullet, that's 65% more bullet per bullet.

    05-10-2014 - Morfe changes to the Vanir code base, I got bored and updated. :p

    05-05-2014 - Cinco de Mayo update, changes to Vanir Code base, more under the hood changes. You're angry. I know it. 'She tested me too hard. She’s unfair.” Boo hoo.

    04 - 27 - 2014 - Initial Commotio Rezound release. We can put our differences behind us. For science. You monster.

    Commotio is a Vanir derivative with a few different tweaks under the hook and some interface changes. It would be like having 2 Z28 Camaros, one with a sun roof, and the other with T-tops.

    What were the updates??

    Just curious... I am the counter over in the ReZound CyanogenMod. It seems as though the main thing to get fixed is the Camcorder. Any ideas?? Anything that we could help you with?? Would like to see this KitKat version fully working before we all depart. Seems like the HTC One M8 is attracting a lot of our developers and users. I might go there later -but- first I would like to get this one working fully. I do believe that it has been greatly overlooked by the public. Course I am prejudice... I like the phone.

    Anywho, IF you are working on the Camcorder problem -and- there is -anything- that I can do to help just please let me know. Either publicly or in a PM.

    Thanks,
    Chuck
