The rezound is awesome after ICS update!!!!

**evilempire** · 08-06-2012, 07:40 AM

Does anyone else agree? It's like a new phone! I love all the new things that we can do with it and it makes the phone way better then before. I would love to hear from you if you agree!

**corki2** · 08-06-2012, 07:50 AM

I agree. I've been on it since the first leak. Now I'm on the final build. No issues at all. I'm very pleased with my Rezound and have been since I got it.

I just did a factory reset less than a week before the update, so I am not ready to do another one just yet. I will probably do one in a few months and maybe that will help my battery. I had a pretty clean slate to start with, so I don't expect any battery miracles, even with another factory reset.

That should be fixed now as it should go of full blast speaker when an alert comes in. We should demand jelly.bean now....

I agree with you @ evilempire it does feel like a new, updated phone now. I am completely stock and absolutely love the update and what it has done for my rezound. I feel like we now have a completely relevant, fresh phone that can compete with anything out there right now.
I also cannot believe the amount of people complaining about it, or listing all of the " problems " - my opinion is that if you were having problems before, then that just carried over. Do a factory reset. Me, personally, I did not have to factory reset, as my phone was in tip-top shape before, and therefore, it carried over with the update. So many people on here are installing all of these " leaks, and roms " and then wonder why there phones are screwed up.
We should all be happy that we got ICS, instead of complaining about it and wishing for JB. Sure of course it would be nice, but one step at a time ....

If you open the messaging app, hit menu, settings, and emergency alerts, you can select what alerts you want to receive. Just can't uncheck the presidential one.

No, I don't want it bust through when my ringer is on silent. I like my sleep!

I am northwest, and I heard there was a dust storm and a little rain.

Funny how I sleep through the storms, and then my alarm at half volume wakes me right up!

**tswigs** · 08-06-2012, 01:12 PM

Im glad everyone is enjoying their updates, sucks that im still waiting for mine... I've waited so long for ICS and it's so close but so far away !!!

While I can understand that but what if it was an alert for a terrorist attack, a tornado, or something you want to be written up for....

Unfortunately with those alerts it is either all or nothing. I don't want to get woken up over a dust storm.

What was the alert for?

**Caelan Aegana** · 08-06-2012, 02:57 PM

I absolutely love the update! My phone does feel a lot fresher and is definitely running more smoothly. And I knew it's a small thing but I'm so happy the pull-down menu background isn't white anymore!

My one complaint: removal of Verizon bloatware is blocked like in the old OS. The Verizon rep promised me it wouldn't be... Who or what exactly do I have to sacrifice to the network gods to get rid of VLA??

Yep, up from where I live in Chandler. We got lot's of dust and just enough sprinkles to make mud. YUK!!!!

by the way; love the ICS update. got the phone that mid day and once the SIM card was installed, got the update notice; perfect timing. Did the FDR before I did the update.

I believe Skatergirl is also in the Phoenix area; unfortunately I was not asleep, I was watching Netflix on ear buds when the dust storm alert went off and it almost gave me a heart attack!

Ah good ol Chandler. I'm in Ahwatukee

**thecabinboy** · 08-06-2012, 03:18 PM

Not much in Gilbert. I saw heat lightning to the south at 8:00, and noticed the update when I woke up at 5:00. I never heard anything sound off and I leave it all maxed out volume wise.

I am sorry that I got a bit of a giggle from your post. I am glad you survived the shock!

Yes, Northwest Valley!
