I knew it!

Now that it's been confirmed for me...I'll go about it differently now.

I suspected it was GO Dialer that wasn't jiving when I restored it. I'll restore it app only without the data and see if that makes the difference.

Hey...gimmee a break...you'll hardly find me asking a question anywhere on this forum, but answering a few here and there.
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
All I ask- if you do have a bug-please please please let me know(this is not directed at you Nick, everyone) if you used tibu, tell me when you report the problem - no matter what was restored - it eliminates me looking into and trying to duplicate problems for hours, where as if I know tibu was used I can 99% of the time know the exact problem in 2 min. of pm's
[HTC Inspire 4G] PilotML:
I see you've updated since I last tried this ROM.

My only concern last time was the camera and I see you added to the OP camera.apk . Does that mean it now shoots at 8MP? That was the only reason I left before.

I tried looking thru but there is a lot to look thru (esp on the xda app)

Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Flyer729:
Yes, it shoots 8 mega pix.
[HTC Inspire 4G] PilotML:
Awesome! I loved this Rom minus the camera part. I take lots of pictures so it was important.

Great job dev!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Staticpunk84:
Can anyone post me a guide on how to install this right now im DL'ing the gingerbeast2.1.2zip file and I am rooted I dont have any roms on it now just all i did was root and did the C/W-R and backup current rom and thats about it.

and I was reading the OP and said its recommended for the radio OTA can anyone list a guide for that too or is it really important to have it thanks everyone
[HTC Inspire 4G] Yenupuri:
Long Version:

Ok, I am glad someone reported the same issue. I can confirm that I have this issue as well. Not just on one install but on a couple of full wipes and installs (on the same device). I have this issue on Gingerbeast and CM based roms and not on HTC Sense ROMS and I am assuming that this probably has something to do with the HTC framework (I may not be making sense here but that is what I think it is).

However, as GPS is very critical for my day to day work related travel, I tried a few things and this is what works for me.

Step 1: Turn GPS 'on' via the toggle

Step 2: Open Maps and start using navigation

usually, the gps cuts off within 5 minutes

Step 3: Pull the notification drawer down and toggle the GPS (turn it off and then on without shutting down the navigation software)

Step 4: Return back to the navigation and continue to your destination as it usually locks within 5-10 seconds. The GPS does not cut-off after this point.

Step 5: Drive like a BOSS...now that you know where to go ! :D

Short Version: Toggle GPS on and off without closing the nav software and it sticks!

Other info: My radio/ baseband is 12.54.60.25P_26.09.04.11_M2.

Hope this helps, sorry it is not a solution but it should help when you need to get it up and running quickly.

what is the purpose of doing this and this will be my first time flashing a rom so im searching for some kind of guide for all this.
[HTC Inspire 4G] diablo009:
Start here for a basic learning:

First sticky in General forum: [GUIDE]Inspire 4G, Rooting, Flashing, Softbrick, Fixes, Sideloading

First and second posts in that thread would be recommended at a minimum.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Staticpunk84:
yes I read that before my ? was what is the Latest Radio 12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2 do for you as in what is it? and do you really need to have it and how do you
[HTC Inspire 4G] gmurphy0487:
It changes the baseband radio. My understanding is it is the firmware for the hardware that sends and receives data and such.

Check out those two threads. Both are radio threads for the inspire.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Staticpunk84:
so in order to flash this ROM I have to install the radio and the RIL? Is there a step by step for this?
[HTC Inspire 4G] gmurphy0487:
No it is not required. It is just recommended. I am still running the AT&T OTA radio with no issues.
[HTC Inspire 4G] schinner16:
I'm running the stock radio no problems.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Staticpunk84:
ok cool well I did d/l the GB rom and its in a rar file do I exract the files or do I just drag and drop the rar file that has all the GB files on the root of my sd card and the boot into bootloader and proceed
[HTC Inspire 4G] schinner16:
Flash it like you would any rom... leave as zip file in root of SD card. Then boot clockwork mod recovery. Erase data, erase cache, erase dalvik cache.. then choose install from zip, find the zip and install.

If any of this confuses you check out the how to sticky on how to flash a rom.
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
Ya you by no means have to use the one I recommended. Try the one your currently using, if it works ok keep it. If it doesn't, try my recommend, or a newer one. This has the ril for the radio I suggested -install a radio by putting the pd98img.zip on your SD card(check md5 sum after you download. Now open terminal emulated(install from market if you don't have it)

Edit- so noone is confused this is for flashing radio ONLY

In terminal on phone type-

md5sum /sdcard/PD98IMG.zip

Make sure md5s match

Reboot bootloader

should start updating automatically, if it doesn't, press power once when your in bootloader.

Then follow prompts.

There's better step by steps and apps for checking the md5 if you don't feel like linilux commands(its great that some actually work on a phone though)

To flash rom-(it should be in zip format)

Just download rom, put it on your sdcard

Get into recovery(NOT HBOOT) recovery is black screen orange writing

Install zip from sdcard

Choose zip from sdcard

Find gingerbeastxxxx.zip

Select it, yes, done.

First boot will take a minute.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Staticpunk84:
cool thanks guys for the replies ill see how it all works soon
[HTC Inspire 4G] BAleR:
for some reason, every time I flash this rom, or CM7 I have poor wifi range, but when I use anything with sense it seems to be just fine.... anyone have any ideas?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Staticpunk84:
do you have to Erase data, erase cache, erase dalvik cache? all that i can see is wipe/data do I do that and then go into advance then go to dalvik cache
[HTC Inspire 4G] Nickovtyme:
Nevermind...woke up this morning and nothing worked right. I would really like getting this to work on my phone, but for some reason its not jiving. just not meant to be..

Gonna go flash dilligaf's other ROM!

[HTC Inspire 4G] schinner16:
Its the recommended procedure. It should help avoid force close issues, when you don't wipe those areas you may or may not have issues. Honestly I have always erased that stuff so I don't know what would go wrong...just passing on advice I have gotten.
[HTC Inspire 4G] orangeschoolbus:
I don't know if this is a "feature" of the phone, a "feature" of AOSP, or a bug in the ROM and since I've only used this and gtg's AOSP build since I purchased my Inspire so I don't know for sure and I'm only just now noticing it today after having the phone over a month, I figured I'd ask here.

It seems that the power button still functions even when the screen is locked/turned off i.e. I can power off my phone accidentally while it's in my pocket if something presses against the power button. If this is a normal behavior then my apologies, but I wasn't sure so I figured I'd bring it up.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Staticpunk84:
well that is odd, I would say return it if you can cause just now lol I started to tap lightly on my phones power button and nothing. but then again I have a case that kind of has this lip rise so you would have to push a down a little more...
[HTC Inspire 4G] Staticpunk84:
Damn you have to unroot every time you dont like a ROM..ugh lol
[HTC Inspire 4G] Staticpunk84:
I all see @ the bottom of the OP there is a GBupdate. Now I just flashed to gb 2.1 (w.e the main one is lol) do I have to do the update if so, how do you.

Also on the main screen to slide to answer how do you turn of the vibrate for that.. I have been looking..I think Im missing it lol

also is away to change the keyboard lay out.?

[HTC Inspire 4G] Staticpunk84:
yeah i was wondering about the same thing I know you can go into facebook and click menu and then settings and select contact sync but for some reason I dont get all of them.
[HTC Inspire 4G] doktor buknasty:
You don't have to unroot every time. If that was the case, many people here wouldn't be flashaholics. If you wanna change to a new rom this is what you do:

1. Have the new rom of your choice on the sd card

2. Boot into recovery

3. Do a full wipe

4. Install the new rom

5. ????

6. Profit
[HTC Inspire 4G] Staticpunk84:
ok cool I was going to say lol.. Cause I think I want to go back to stock inspire ROM Im liking the GB but eh not for me really..by any chance where can I get the stock one for the inspire I saw somewhere att something something lol but not sure.

The facebook names have to match EXACTLY as they are in your phone. So if you have Sarah S. on your phone and Sarah Sampson on FB, they will not match and sync. The facebook sync check for Name, Email Address, and Phone number primarily.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Four-Fifty-X:
Dilligaf...

I've been jumping back and forth between this and CM7, and like Gingerbeast better: seems smoother and has less stuff I don't really need.

In you next release (if there is even one...), it would be great if you could add "All emails" to "Amount to Synchronize" to e-mail account settings. Right now it's limited to one month. It's possible, I assume, because CM7.0.3 has that option...

Signed,

A donator....:)
[HTC Inspire 4G] gvsukids:
no match for that
[HTC Inspire 4G] Rob116:
Sorry, my mistake, it's "fcontactssync".
[HTC Inspire 4G] inthewoods:
If it's not in AOSP, but in CM7 then I'm pretty sure the answer will be NO.

Anyway all my email accounts sync just fine. Have you tried selecting each account to manage what gets synched?
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
What's not working right? Everything works on this rom - there's really only one bug, which is USB tethering (wireless tethering works fine).

If something isn't working, its related to tibu. If your stuff is backed up from a sense rom, and restored, I can almost guarantee problems. (Ive put out a bunch of roms for 2 phones, and tibu ALWAYS causes problems- I don't use it, and I never have issues-unless its a legit bug)

Flash the rom, don't use tibu- install manually(you only have to do this once, Google will automatically restore you apps if you update /reflash this rom), and there will be no problems.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Nickovtyme:
I nand back to a prior ROM...I'm gonna work on it some more this weekend when I have some more time. I had it working last night...and like you and others around here...my wife started in on me cause I was paying more attention to the phone...and you know how it is.

I flashed and reflashed, hoping I could get the right Tibu combination...and thought I had it. I'll get it...be patient with me. I want to get away from sense completely for a change and this is the way to the truth and the light! :D

I'm really not sure what happened over night, but when I checked this morning I started getting the FC's again. For all I know it was doing it all through the night, after I put it down. But I seen it and know that I want this ROM on my phone.. :)

I'll keep at it...but it may be a few days. If I must start from scratch...then so be it. I've tried all the others and Ingersoll is the fastest sense ROM on my phone; this ROM and your other ROM matches it.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Rob116:
Is it really that much work just to reinstall? I've shared di11's experience - all tibu has ever done for me is cause problems. If you delete it, full clear, and manually restore, the rom will work flawlessly (and you'll never go back).
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
Ya, plus you only have to do it once- then as updates come(most of mine wont wipe data, unless there's major changes).

If you do have to reflash, every app that used to be on your phone is reinstalled after setup. I just let it do it's thing, in a few minutes its all back to the way it was.

Some manufactures (Samsung, moto, I think HTC but I don't remember) actually remove this feature, which is completely stupid.
[HTC Inspire 4G] trell959:
NO! You don't have to unroot. You can flash another rom over that, but you will need to wipe in CWM. That's just how you get back to out of the box stock
[HTC Inspire 4G] Yenupuri:
Edit: Post removed :)

Gah! Posted a useless question.

Will wipe and reinstall without using tibu and see if it gets fixed.

Di11, any luck on reducing the font size? I can throw my glasses away with how big they are right now! :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] Phoenix-Lead:
Just compile the ROM with a font folder from a ROM that has a font and size you like. Or purchase a font from the market. Some things are just that easy!
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
I don't get what you mean 'just compile the rom'— unless he's gonna clone the aosp source code, and compile with a different font-even then your dealing with raw code and the structure is nothing like what you see in a rom's zip. The only source on my git is kernel source, no rom source as of yet, so its not buildable. Unless you just meant 'zip the rom with a font folder'-which this already has. Changing the font wont help, like gtg said its gotta be adjusted in the framework, which I will try to do before I compile a new build from source, although I like the font size, and its not changed from what Google intended, which is what I want .

Sjk, its gonna be awhile before I get to that, font size and aesthetics will come after speed, stability and bugs, so feel free to dig around the framework to see what you can find.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Phoenix-Lead:
Compile was clearly the wrong word. I am very technical but my vocabulary clearly isn't. Just trying to help. There are just different fonts available as you know that can be easily applied to any ROM through the fonts folder prior to install. They come thinner which to me look smaller.

EDIT: I love the stock font as well. I Will go back to my thread now:(
[HTC Inspire 4G] akira02rex:
Is it possible to use the stock android launcher with this ROM? Any tips on doing that?

Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
I just multiquoted 3 people and only yours showed up, never works for me anymore. And I just didn't know if you meant compile a whole build, or just mess with the zip, you said compile, which with this rom means something, case it is actually compiled from actual raw source, not just modified from an existing. zip. I figured you meant .zip when you said easy, cause cocompiling would mean - having Linux, having a compiler set up, having git set up, etc

Not the easiest thing for a normal user.

jack- do you have a wait to host it, cause I don't.

Num- ya the next kernel will have it, but I don't know when ill build the next kernel. This one is fast, stable and has insane battery life already. it will be slower with the smartass governor, and its not like the on-demand is sucking battery life, cause I've never gotten better battery than this .

I'm working 12 hour days in 90 degree weather, so I don't have a lot of time atm, soon as a little frees up, ill start working on it more. The time I do have is stuff that's gotta get done, eat and sleep.

Its not a bug, its your individual processor. Some can go to 2.0, some can only go to 1.5. Your lucky your phone even boots at 1.9, I'd say probably 75% wouldn't. Mine runs 1.84 just fine, most of the time 1.9+ the phone will function, but soon as I start using a little CPU it freezes. I've managed to pull maybe 5 linpack runs at 1.9.

I could make 1.9 a little more stable for phones like yours and mine, but that would take the voltage to an unsafe level. The highest you should ever go is 1500mv- and I'm either there or 1475 at 1.92.(can't remember what I set to voltage at 1.92 off the top of my head- I gotta look through my source)

Next kernel I may include a script (only for those brave enough to try it)to raise voltage at 1.9+ so those who actually want to go that high may be able to do it with a little more stability,but you'll have to mail me a signed waiver incase your phone blows up or gets so hot your house burns down.

Remember every CPU is different. Some overclock to insane levels, some barely make it past stock.
[HTC Inspire 4G] theherkman:
Hmmm, okay. Thanks. My phone runs at 1.708 most of the time. I have the max set to 1.8. But when I set it to 1.9, that is where the real issue is. I would love an increased power script. The only time my phone your warm was when I was using team viewer for an hour or so.

I am a tad amused at reading the "PureGAndroid" thread. I hope he wasn't another straw on your back. Looks like things are settled.

It appears we can't technically have a "pure" Google ROM since the source does need to be slightly tailored for our hardware (hence using some of the CM7 drivers and the modified camera app). Truth be told, I'm glad there are multiple people making the effort for pure Android, as it makes it more likely there will still be support for my phone in the future.

I got bit by the "Voicemail Number Not Found" bug. Happened randomly today. It appears this may be a Google source thing in that the only other reference I've found for it was in the Nexus forums (which also run pure Android). Plugging my number in doesn't resolve the issue since it actually wants a library of numbers so that voicemail will be a local call depending on your location. Some people were able to fix it by removing the Sim, waiting 5 minutes, then re-inserting it, but most had to call their carrier and request an OTA fix to their SIM. For now, I just dial my cellphone number to get voicemail. It's rare for me to have any. I'll deal with AT&T later.

Once again, thanks for a sweet ROM!
