The HTC Rezound is a power house of a phone that was released in late 2011 and is currently going for $199.99. Given that the Galaxy Nexus was taking much of the news at that point of being released it kind of went along with not a lot of attention. Well Verizon is showing it some love by getting ready to push an update that appears to have some cosmetic changes as well as some bug fixes. It also pushes the software version to 2.01.605.11 with a baseboard version 0.95.00.1118r. Here is what the update entails:
- Updated signal strength meter to 5 bar Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI).
- Screen Timeout issues while connected to Wifi have been resolved.
- Resolved issue with Mobile Hotspot data stalling while multiple users are connected.
- Improved audio quality during voice call.
- Reduced forced closures related to the People application.
- Improved device stability reduces continuous resets.
- Resolved issue with Task Manager stopping Mail background service.
So while it’s not the Ice Cream Sandwich update that was leaked roughly ten days ago it should improve the overall experience of your device. Even with the ability to unlock the bootloader and ROMs that are starting to pop up those who shy away from that stuff can rest better at night knowing that their device will be becoming more stable. Stay tuned and we’ll keep you updated when it does.
