Will a full root come to the dna with S-off etc ? I am thinking. With it's HUGE screen and TINY battery that it was a bad decision.I just got it today.. Is the battery all that bad ? (partial power user) I can take it back within 14 days Let me know what you think

You can root it today. And battery life is great, don't expect it to be better than the razr maxx though.

I dunno man, I just unlocked the bootloader and rooted all last night. AND, I work in a concrete box, with almost no signal. I still get through the day with moderate use at work with battery to spare. :highfive:

It doesn't work directly anymore, you have to use Jcase's exploit to make the HTC website think that the DNA is another phone. Then after you unlock the bootloader you can flash a recovery and SuperSU or Superuser.
You just can't obtain S-OFF yet.

This is pretty hard I rooted my Thunderbolt and it was a breeze I don't get how to do this LOL
The exploit is fairly complicated. Myself, I'm holding out hoping that maybe it can become slightly less complicated. Imo, the phone is awesome even on stock and until there's more development I don't see a need for my usage. The battery is pretty awesome btw. I get 4.75 screen on time. Trying to tweak it to make it to 5 hours.

What are you guys talking about? Its just typing (and in fact, really just copy/paste) in a bunch of commands into a CMD prompt. Easy breezy, takes 10 minutes or so if you know how to follow instructions.
jcase has already said that he has no plans to create a "1-click" method...
IMO, if you are not comfortable following directions, dont know what ADB is, etc, perhaps you should not really be rooting your phone?
And the battery is just fine. I'm having no issues getting through the day with a single charge. The only way I could see the battery become a concern is if someone is streaming Netflix for 2-3 hrs a day. Then you probably wont get through a full day on 1 charge.
I think the main concern is the risk of bricking if instructions are not followed properly. That + other roots have been fairly straightforward so we're spoiled I personally haven't rooted mine yet either, though I do plan on doing so soon.
To the OP: the battery life has surpassed my expectations, and I'm easily lasting an entire day with my DNA. I use my phone all day for texts, web browsing, and phone calls, with around an hour of my commute being underground with no signal. Even with all this, I never need to charge it before bedtime. So yeah, I'd say this phone is definitely worth getting, and you'll be pleasantly surprised by the battery's performance.

Not sure what this file is but would you mind searching for Smart_io.crd with an sd card reader before powering the phone on. Saw a few Devs asking about it in the development section so it must be important toward getting us root access lol.

I can't do that with these 2 models, we already have plans for them, however we have another dozen coming in a few days in a separate shipment, and I can definitely scan those devices.
The phone has been off the charger for 21 hours sofar, the entire time we have had the 4G radio turned on and connected. There has been about 20 minutes of 3D and non-3D videos taken to compare how they look, and we've taken about 30 3D and standard pictures.
No phone calls to the device yet, Battery is still around ~40%, 21 hours, moderate use, 4g radio turned on the entire time, looks like this phone is going to have a very nice battery life.

The phone has some interesting battery saving options in the settings menu. By default at 15% battery it's set to go into a battery saving mode. You can change what percent it does it at, or if it does it at all. I think HTC really did some tweaking to the battery system here.

Agree, the Nexus S 4G is a POS, its what Im using now too and I get horrible data and its relatively slow, its barely faster than my HTC Fuze. Its battery isnt all that impressive either, it lasts a day but for a phone people say has amazing battery, I just dont see it. I really barely use it and 4G is barely faster than 3G and Im in Orlando.

A couple noob questions coming from an ex X2 owner.
First : tethering
while using the tethering apps provided by mother google from code.google.com, does the TB tether its 4G or 3G? I did a search found no solid answer.
Second :Rooting
I'm coming from an X2 and to root it is simpler than changing my baby's stinky diapers. Is there an "easier" rooting method? Possibly one that doesn't require a computer?
Third:Battery
Coming from the X2 with an extended battery I get maybe 10 hours. I've read from numerous threads that the TB has a bad battle life if on 4g. This isn't a complaint from but just wondering which extended battery works best, HTC, seidio, etc?

It will provide whichever you are currently on (3g/4g/1x) to the device that is tethered.

No. Gaining S-off and permaroot require you to use adb. Follow either the Easyroot or step by step guides here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1013013
It really isn't as hard as it may seem.
Thanks for the quick reply. Super happy about the first answer but bummed about the second cuz I can't tether without root lol

all you need is about an hour in front of a computer to root. Once done, you can do everything else from the bolt.
Battery life is about 4 hours for me. I keep 2 extra batteries charged and with me.

That sucks lol
Ok, so I need a noob root how to. i'm on SW v 1.13.605.7 but in the one click method it says for "A Thunderbolt running 605.6 or 605.9 Firmware".
As far as the battery goes, its not that bad for me. I use green power (market app for free).
Basiclly what it does is shuts the data on your phone off when you turn the screen off, and back on when you unlock your screen. You can also set it to turn the data on say every hour for say 1minute to sync things, then shuts it back off. It's a lot simpler to use than juice defender, and helps my battey life a lot.
Also, after you root, install setcpu and make a profile to underclock when the screen is off.
With these apps I get a full day out of one charge with moderate usage (texts, calls, some YouTube, some music, social apps, etc)
It might also be a good investment to buy a car charger, and they have extended batteries for the tbolt as well.
As far as rooting goes, its not hard. Follow the directions carefully and you'll be golden.
There is also a one click script floating out there. You still have to have adb set up though. All the script really does is type for you.

Easyroot + S-off was ballin for me personally. Easier than watchin porn. I dont know if it still works on the latest OTA, but I know the one before that it worked perfect.
Battery? Synergy with everything syncing on wifi all day and no battery enhancers. Did I meantion STOCK 1400 mah battery? I have a total of four batteries, but Ive only needed a max of two as of late.

Rooting takes anywhere from 20-60 minutes, however thats the easy part. Finding and setting up the roms to your liking...well, Ive had a Bolt since release day and my phones still not 100% setup. XD

Same here. I routinely got 16-20 hrs with stock battery on Gingeritis and I'm getting at least that long on Synergy (4G always enabled & no battery enhancers). I have an extra OEM battery that I take when I go out, but I rarely need it.
If you can copy+paste, you can root a Tbolt. It's really that simple.

I have been reading in the forms that this is an issue. I too am experiencing the heat issue, yet I don't see any fix. I read that the screen and/or the radios are the issue.

Mine gets a little hot at times too. I just pulled mine out of my pocket to show a friend and my screen was on and it was pretty warm, more than usual.
yeaa it gets really hot. i can't even play any hd games. the phone might over heat and crash
I had 14 hours of use today and over 4 hours screen on time. I think the higjest one got was 95 deg
I have the extended battery if that matters
Yeah, she gets a little warm. Anecdotal evidence says that the phones that get way hot (130-150 during games, 120 ish during regular use) have a hardware problem... I have read from a lot of people who have been that hot and say the trade-in was better.
Also, the extended seems to dissipate the heat better.
As for me, I didn't have much of an issue until after the first OTA. Now I top out around 125 when playing heavy games or surfing hard on 4G. Not happy about that, but I don't think it's hardware in my case. I need to get an extended anyway....
Its because of a CPU issue where the CPU runs at the highest clock speed instead of scaling like it should while the screen is on. I have this problem as well and my battery is absolute **** now :|

But I did have almost 5 hours screen on time :-\ didn't feel that hot. Really like having ics but that's getting pretty warm
i am using "easy battery" to help me keep my battery life and kinda keep it cooler. i recommend to return to stock os and wait until the official upgrades are given out.
When I first got this phone it actually ran hot, so hot that I can actually feel the heat on my leg when I put it in my pocket.
When I upgraded to the current leaked RUU, the heat problems went away.
I have zero heat issues on my Rezound, I still haven't gotten the new leak yet, waiting for a ROM that makes me really want to do it.

Everyone will install the ota the same way the leak was installed. The ota will include new radios and a new boot loader version. They always have. Easy.

i thought u would not be able to get your phone back to stock after flashing the leak . and the official update requires ur phone to be stock. something like that
" correct me if im wrong"

maybe the official update will fix the problem
You could run the RUU again and you would be back to bone stock, albeit a leaked "official" stock, but still stock. You would have the stock recovery and be locked again.

I don't think it's the CPU. Same cpu problems in the last couple of leaks and phone is running a little warmer on current leak. I think the radios are cranked up, pulling more power. My phone only gets hot when on 4G.

hey guys, so some of you look familiar from the Rezound forums, good to see ya! I finally got a DNA and gave my rezound to my older brother for xmas, and much like last year, i've noticed a couple of bugs. the good thing is, though, that i was in touch with HTC tech support last year, where i actually spoke to them over the phone a few times over some bugs we had with the rezound. after noticing a few, i decided to open my old claim and talk with the same rep who i dealt with last year, as he was very knowledgeable and a great guy overall!
so a few bugs i've noticed so far:
1.) the audio/video delay lag, where in every video player, including youtube, audio lags behind video (thanks milan, i forgot which one it was lol)
2.) the home button lag much like the s3 with s-voice enabled
3.) not much of a bug, but for some stupid reason HTC enabled "auto enhance" on the camera by default! you can't turn it off. this was something big wtih the rezound that the number one thing we urged users who asked how to get good pics was to turn auto enhance off. it really softens the image and makes it look bad in low light, IMO. also, they made auto focus on by default and you can't switch it. i reported this, and he confirmed that it's just part of the software, but they do value our feedback, and i know for a fact this guy does, as the bug with audio recording on the rezound WAS fixed when 4.0 was OTA'd to it.
so i brought both of these up with them, and they're looking into it, which is great. anyone have any bugs they notice? i keep forgetting the little ones when it's time to write a reply to HTC, so it would be good to get them in here.
HTC def. does listen to us, guys.
either way, i LOVE this phone. so snappy, and has an amazing screen and form factor to it! the camera is great, but you just have to play around with the options to get a great pic. the audio sounds great with the beats as well. i've yet to get a wireless charger, but i think i'm going to start looking around for it.
great to be a part of the new community, guys!
When I power on my screen & drag down my notification bar to select a text it sends me to the first text from that person. This does not happen every time, but often enough.

right right! i get that too. my rezound had that. i'll def let them know.
In the messages app, in the all messages tab. The time of the last message is actually the time of the last mms. This is not the case in the sms/mms tab.

and also the wifi still seems buggy where it sometimes disconnects in sleep even when its not set to do so

The date and time on the message thread is off if you get a pic message. It sets out to the date and time of the mms message

Some games and other apps that use fullscreen have a small black bar on whichever side is on the home bar that takes up space the game could/should be using.

you know, i brought this up. i said, why is it that the One X has the option to make recent apps button into menu by long press etc..what possible reason could verizon have had for getting rid of it? he said he doesn't know, but it was def the carrier's plan to do that, not HTC's. so ridiculous

I've barely used my phone today as you can tell by the screen on time and the app percentages. So... something is wrong.

That looks like you could have a rogue app or something. I've never seen mine above 25. And its at 11 right now.

The worst part is since I'm not rooted, I would have to go through and figure it out by uninstalling them or disabling them one by one. I don't see how I have a rogue app.
I can't even figure out where to start looking. Ughhhh.
Really to be honest at close to 5 hrs screen on time I will get 12 hours total. Is your phone 100% stock or do you have any maybe non kosher pirated apps going on that might not show up in that app. Kernel is still software related and I'm not understanding why yours is so out if wack with everybody else. You have complained about this in several threads now.

dude, you've got something wacky going on. my kernel is never above like 17% and DEF doesn't keep it awake anywhere near that long, even after a 14 hour day...

This will be the ONE and only review thread for the AT&T HTC One M9.
All other review threads will be merged here, so please don't start a new one. Thank you​
HTC M9 disassembled
Just got mine. Any questions?
Hi all. So I just picked up my AT&T HTC One M9. If anyone has any questions about anything please let me know. Ill be happy to try to help.
It is currently stock S-On and bootloader locked and I am going to keep it that way for now but if there is anything you would like to know just ask.
Ok so a few things I have noticed after using it for about an hour.
1. It does not get hot.....it is actually much cooler than the laptop I am currently using.
2. I love the look and feel of the HTC keyboard but it doesn't change im to I'm.......I hate that!
3. There are a ton of available themes. They all say free, so I assume that in the future some will actually cost money.
4. It is definitely not as slick as the M8.
5. The camera hump on the back is perfectly placed to give a bit of leverage in holding it.
6. The placement of the power button sucks, I always hit the volume thinking it is the power button, even though the power button is textured.
7. LAG......NONE, ZERO, ZILCH. Smoothest phone I have EVER used.
8. There is a personalization option to keep the soft buttons hidden!!!
From where?
I'm confused if its available now online or if its just a pre order. And if it is available now I would rather pick it up in stores so I could have it faster.
Bought it from a guy that got it at the pre launch event in Los Angeles the other day.
What's the Antutu score? Does it get hot when you run the Antutu benchmark?
One for the long run: how does the battery life hold up, and in particular: what SOT are you getting out of it?
It did get a little warmer while running the benchmark. But no where near enough to be uncomfortable.
Not sure if the OP got the unlocked version, but does it support AT&T LTE?
No sorry mine is the AT&T version so no way to test that. I would assume so though.
ohhhh its amazing i will try it.
A reviewer complained about the device getting hot while watching videos. Can you confirm?
Also I thought the software was detecting benchmark apps and putting the chip at 100% when running them. All other times the chip is throttled. Do you think that is the case?
I can't decide on the M9 or the S6 that are branded by ATT as I'm just going to renew my contract for 2 years. I think with the M9 on ATT you will be able to root, unlock the bootloader, etc. An ATT S6 won't be able to do any of that from the past ATT Galaxys. Does that seem about right?

I can't tell if it is detecting benchmarks but the phone is lightning fast all the time. I did run the GPS yesterday for about an hour straight with the screen on and the phone definitely got hot. Not to hot to hold but enough to tell it was hot.
I will say after a couple of days use the battery seems pretty bad. I can't tell screen on time because I can't find it in the settings, but it will not come close to a full day on a single charge with heavy use. Probably close to 6-7 hours of heavy usage in my opinion.

Like I said there is no way to see screen on time, maybe there is some special app tat will do it but it has been removed from the system settings.

everybody usually uses gsam battery monitor on the htc one m8 and it gives you all the details. just screenshot the main page when you download it.
This is pretty light/average usage, also left off the charger overnight.
