I haven't seen any updates lately on the status of getting perm root and s-off I really hope its here soon so we can get cm9 on this
Looking forward to S-off and permanent root is good. Impatience is even ok. However, good things come to those who wait. The way I look at it (and I'm not too shabby in other development worlds, but not so much in Android yet) is that it'll come when the people who devote their time to it free of charge get it figured out.I haven't seen any updates lately on the status of getting perm root and s-off I really hope its here soon so we can get cm9 on this

Sorry to sound grumpy, but as a former WinMo dev I know how they feel about people asking "when is it going to be here". It'll happen when it happens. Until then, we wait.
Incidentally, we waited over 2 months to get root on the OG Incredible and longer than that for S-off. And from what I've read in the dev forums, this is going to be trickier. I want root as much as anyone, but a couple of months isn't going to kill anyone... the Rezound STOCK is better than any Android phone to date in my opinion.
Well I've had a lot of homescreen redraws and slow downs I've tried adw ex and launcher pro but there is still lag idk I guess I just want ics on here but I can wait

Try the CleanTool(scottsroms.com) temp root and debloat and even de-sense. I don't have any screen lag at all without all the "extras" Verizon and HTC tried to saddle me with.
Edit: Guess I should've scrolled all the way down...hahaha. I love it when other people pimp this script.
Thanks for the suggestion ill try it later today how much better is the battery life?

I'm not getting impatient as much as nervous that this phone will NEVER get a root. I don't mind if it's in January or March or even June or whatever, but I really hope HTC hasn't locked it down perfectly. I mean, didn't the Incredible2 never get a root?
I don't think I saw the question answered as to whether the Dinc2 was ever rooted...

Well why dont you become a dev and learn how to do it then, if you are so impatient. What are you contributing to s-off and perm root, other than bitching? Its not their JOB to provide YOU with root and s-off. Its VERY VERY nice of them to do all that work for free, then SHARE it with US. They do not owe us anything. If you want a phone that has s-off, their are a ton of them out there, or you could get the GNEX. You bought this phone knowing it was locked down, so live with it and dont complain until one of those devs that has a job and does this on the side as a hobby for free, gets s-off and root. Patience, appreciation, and thanks go along ways with people especially if/when its all for free.
Ok I get what you're saying I wasn't trying to complain I know that there are devs trying and they are doing it for free but if something way better comes along in the next few this phone could never get supported and this phones hardware is better than the nexus but the software isnt
If anyone could link me to devs who are working on getting root ill donate
How do you say the software is better on the GNex? Thats the reason I took mine back, and others have.
Well on the galaxy nexus there are hundreds of Roma so you have choices there
Have those roms fixed the data issues, camera pics, the banding and blotchiness on the screen, the lag in some games I have played, the lag with lwp's, etc. My wife loves using live walls on her phones. Lot of bugs in the initial OS needs worked out before it is a better software to me.
