Once again we went looking on the Web and found some interesting things. We had been wondering just what wecan do with this phone. Guess it comes dow to 'what' you want to do and 'what' the phone can do.

 September 22nd, 2013 / 10:11pm  Well, we got interrupted. Our main machine died. Yep. The Mother Board flaked out. Still broken, waiting on parts. So, fortunately we had just made a backup copy over onto our Laptop. What a coincedence??? Or was it the Lord?? Won't know until we talk to Him later. But now on to the point of this page.

We have been following the CyanogenMod progress for our HTC ReZound and not so sure that it is for us. IF you are really into the latest and greatest, then it will possibly be for you. However, we have spent years on Operating System code for our 'puter (openSuSE) and really what has it gotten us?? Not a whole hell-a-va lot. No sooner got one version working and then they would come out with another. And lately we have been having 'trouble' with the newer code. -But- then we can't go back cause what we want won't work with the older code. Rock and a Hard Place.

Now we have this Smartphone that is doing the same thing. And we have the same problem, so to speak. Only this time the OS is changing almost every day!! Because of our background, we wanted to learn more about the Programming aspect of these phones. -But- do to the problems with our Main 'Puter and all the delays, changes and what not with the phones we haven't really made a lot of progress. Think that prior to the list of ROMs and Tools that we need to make a list of just what we want to do... and what we want to use. Do something with the phone besides the OS.

1. Use it as a Phone, naturally.
2. HTC time and Full Screen Weather.
3. GPS
4. MP3
5. Camera
6. Calculator
7. Internet
8. USB Connect to my 'Puters.

Those are the main things to have working. They are a combination of personal and Job related Apps. Anything else is either for Luxury or fun. And the Programming part is fun... most of the time.
