[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garman76:
Radio is basicly the software that makes your GSM, data and GPS signal work. And the developers usually recommend a radio to use with the spesific rom. It's not necessary and you can use your original radio, but you will most proberly get a better signal if you go with the radio recommended by the developer of the rom.

You will need eng s-off in order to flash the rom correct, so I will suggest you read your self up on that topic before you proceed. As far as I have understood it this is the most critical part of the procedure, so make sure you read the descriptions well untill you are sure that you got all the details.

I found this tread very usefull when I started to try and figure out what to do, but you will also find some even more detailed descriptions if you try to google the subject.

I had this happen to me with a game from marketplace. It gave me the same message & would not download by any means. This continued for two days, then on the third day it miraculously downloaded.

I think it's an error in marketplace, that happens from time to time. Can't say for sure, but hopefully you'll get lucky like I did & get your game. If not emailing the programmer should get results.

Has anyone ever had this problem?

1.Flash Back To Stock Rom - Found Here --> Stock Rom

2.Run Ace Hack Kit V9 Steps 1-3 - Found Here --> Ace Hack Kit V9

Okay Flashing Back To Stock Rom Makes You Unrooted But You Will Still Have S-Off

This Is Where The Ace Hack Kit V9 (Yes V9 Not V10) Comes In

Once Back To Stock Rom Run Ace Hack Kit V9 There Is A Read Me File Within The Zip With Directions Use It & Follow Them All The Way Down To The 3rd Step Until You Get To This Part

Again in the phone term emulator:

cd /data/local

./gfree -f

sync

Ok Do The 1st Command But When You Do The 2nd Command Instead Of (./gfree -f) Do This (./gfree -s on) Then Do The Last Command

Stop Here & Power Phone Off Then With Phone Off Hold Volume Down + Power Button At The Same Time To Boot Into Hboot To Check If You Have S-On

If You Do Have S-On All You Have To Do Now Is Flash Stock Rom 1 More Time & You Should Be Completely Stock Like Buying It Brand New In The Store :D

I Hope This Helps People Trying To Return Back To Stock

It Helped Me :)

I Would Like To Specially Thank ClearD & mudknot2005 For Helping Me Solve & Figure This Out

THANKS GUYS :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
hahaha couldn't wait, lol hold on while I up load a file..

(ClearD)

When you first ran Gfree, it automatically backed up your stock partition 7 (with S-On) and placed it on your microSD card as a file named part7-(something).bin and you will need to rename this file to: partition7-relock.img

If you have installed Gfree to begin with, I'm going to safely assume you have ADB access on your computer. So open up your ADB command prompt and type the following:

adb shell
su
cd /data/local
chmod 777 gfree
./gfree
dd if=/sdcard/partition7-relock.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p7
sync
reboot bootloader
[HTC Inspire 4G] Doo Doo:
nope this didn't work either thanks for trying
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
did you make sure to install g-free
[HTC Inspire 4G] Doo Doo:
yes i double checked just to make sure
[HTC Inspire 4G] Doo Doo:

dd if=/sdcard/partition7-relock.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p7

Thanks for the guide! I remembered having to type the same gfree command in terminal using bubbys simple root app to root my phone, so i tried running the ./gfree s-on command from that point in the simple root tool and it worked perfectly! for me this was a better option because i was already familiar with the simple root tool.

Hardware Issues Question...

I'm wondering something...

Is it possible that installing custom roms (found on here, mind you) could contribute to having GPS and poor signal issues?

I don't know what's going on, but I have a big problem with signal issues and GPS issues. Sometimes I can't even get better than EDGE when I was getting full H+ reception. I was locking onto GPS really well...but not at all now.

I had rooted my phone a month after I had it and tried out a whole bunch of ROMS on here. I finally settled on the recommended radio with the 2.3 Gingerbread stock rooted rom.

Now, it doesn't matter what ROM I use, I still have my signal and GPS issues. It also doesn't matter what radio or RIL I use, either.

Is this just a hardware issue with the Inspire, a bad sim (like I saw someone else experience) or are these roms messing with the hardware?

I've used the following roms on my inspire:

Leedroid

Coredroid

cyogenmod

stock rooted froyo

stock rooted gingerbread

Stock unrooted

Virtuous Unity

TPC's
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
Hey...just a thought....maybe next time, before bringing up an old thread from many months ago, you could try searching the forums and maybe even the radio and GPS threads. You probably could find answers to all your questions and more.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mjwitt2:
You might step down off your high horse long enough to offer something productive instead of being an ass. Was I asking for people to fix my phone? NO Was I asking for someone to help me? NO I was just posing a question. I found this because I WAS searching and I didn't see the date of the thread. I'm not a damn noob because I have a low post count, so check yourself.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
Ok guys enough. No reason to get all up in arms. Bad signal has tons of threads and normally leads to a bad radio and ril combo with the rom you are using. Always make sure you have the roms recommended radio and ril.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
Honestly, I've never seen any followup from of the ROM/RIL recommendations that ever solved the problem. It seems that the most effective fix I've seen (the only one where numerous people said, "hey, that worked!") is the loose contacts fix:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1101066
[HTC Inspire 4G] mjwitt2:
I know that bad radio/ril combos with the wrong rom will cause problems. I was on the thread that stated that the latest rooted gingerbread stock rom worked best with ril/rom X. I flashed it and my phone still sucks.

I'm trying to get s-on so I can exchange this thing because it's been ticking me off for 3 months now.
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
Hey sorry about yesterday. Bad day, hadn't had a drink yet and you caught it. Apologies. Your looking for s-on? Check out the thread below. This might be what you need.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1208507
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
Any examples? I'm referring to GPS issues, but I'm not convinced that Radio/ROM/RIL has much bearing on anything as long as it's a fairly modern radio. I really see nothing but random anecdotes in the radio thread with no hint of any convergence toward a "best" combination, which we certainly should be seeing with all these data amassed so far.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
The reason there is no best combo is due to it being area dependent. Like I could tell you radio x and ril y are the best but when you try it in your area it us not so good. Good example is my signal. With the GB combo I never have less then 5 full bars everywhere I go. Now the same combo would provide less bars in say Alabama. I have a buddy there and we are always flashing new radios and comparing. And we always end up with different combos that works for each of us.

To tell the truth i just flashed the kernal and the first gingerbread rom in xcals kernal thread without knowing exactly if i was doin it rite. It all worked fine though. Anyways my point is,if you have a question,ask. It shouldnt be followed by 3 or 4 more because that shows you have no clue whatsoever as to what you are doing. Im only saying this because i know everyone learns by failing first and no one should be told you SHOULD know what your doing. Just wait it out abd it will eventually be less mess to go through. Im no dev or pro at this,just a newbie who presses dowbload too quick and gets lucky. If anyone needs in depth help,pm me and ill help so the devs and more experienced guys can do the serious work

Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
Already included with the rom.
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
According to Cezar and probably others know.... ODIN is the only way to flash the modem and kernel at the moment. The CWN built into the kernel does not go deep enough in the root. So it might act like it is flashing but it really isn't changing anything.
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
The new bootloader changes the way you go into download and recovery. Volume up and power is recovery and volume down and power is download mode. You won't need the 3 button anymore. If you decide to go back to froyo this will still be in effect as long as you don't go back to an older bootloader.

Yes, is there
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
That mainly covers everyone so there are no problems. A lot of people flash different kernels so they may not have cwm3 anymore. He is covering his ass. Flashing the latest kernel with odin guarantees you have cwm3 before flashing rc3.
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Look for known issues or power widget in the OP.

Please people, read.
[Captivate Android Development] LNJ:
The issue is moreso for those running the previous kernel included which would have been 0.1.1 which was still cwm 2.5.x

And RC3 is a cwm 3.x zip so unless you had manually updated to Talon 0.1.2 with cwm 3.x, you wouldn't be able to flash RC3 in recovery.
