Hello! I'm a latecomer to the party - had to do an unscheduled upgrade after my rooted DInc made a suicidal leap from my pocket.
I toyed with the idea of a Nexus, since I enjoy modding my phone and playing with different ROMs, but I live in a poor signal area, which looked like it might be a dealbreaker. Hence the Rezound.
Anyway, while the Rezound appears to be a worthy successor to my Incredible in most regards, I am experiencing problems with overheating when I'm at home (and only then). The 3G connection comes and goes, occasionally dropping to 1G, about the same as with my Incredible. But I get the red/green blinking light fairly often if I try to do much of anything with the phone, like read an ebook. I have 4G turned off, by the way, and have experienced the issue with both the stock and extended battery. I have the impression it may be worse when plugged into the charger, but I need to test that further. I installed System Panel to see if I had a runaway app, but nothing is leaping out at me. I'm running Launcher Pro and haven't rooted yet, so Sense is running underneath, but LauncherPro doesn't seem to be consuming that much CPU. I have a static wallpaper and the screen set to about 50% brightness. The problem goes away if I put the phone in airplane mode.
I realize I haven't yet done everything possible to troubleshoot this thing (I suppose a hard reset and running it bone stock for a while might be in order), but does anyone have any suggestions/ideas? Is this sort of thing usual for the Rezound in a poor signal area? Might rooting and a good bloatectomy help?
