[HTC Inspire 4G] Four-Fifty-X:
A few points:

-it's very, very hard to brick your phone by rooting and flashing roms, so if you're stressing about that at all, don't. It only gets dicey is you are flashing radios via fastboot or messing with ENG-OFF. You don't need to do either of those things, and you won’t either accidentally.

-tinkering and trying many roms is very easy. If you do a nandroid backup (aka a backup with Clockworkmod recovery), you’re golden. It takes about 5 minutes to do a backup. If you want to come back to the previous rom, simply restore in Clockworkmod recovery. EVERYTHING will restore as it was before. After you do a backup, boot up and rename the backup file to something meaningful, like “Dilligaf5-20110534”. Make sure there are no spaces in the name, or Clockworkmod recovery will upchuck. The backup files are on your SD card in the \clockworkmod\backup directory. I have a collection of 10 backup roms. I can restore any one of them in 5 minutes with all my settings intact.

-if you are going from froyo to froyo or gb to gb, you can used Titanium backup to backup and restore sms/mms. Just backup “dialer storage”. When you get your new rom up, restore dialer storage. You will have to reboot after you restore in order to see your sms/mms messages.

-buy Setcpu and root explorer.

-checkout the rom kitchen. You can do lots of neat stuff like changing the battery meter, status bar, icons, fonts, animation, and boot animation. http://uot.dakra.lt/

-AOSP roms like CM7 and others are very fast and have good battery life, but some the apps are not as feature-rich. For example e-mail is missing a lot of options.

-GB roms (like LeeDroid and AR) are nice, but to me, GB doesn’t really have that much to offer over Froyo. LeeDroid has a great kernel and battery life. It also has a really nice call recorder. From a UI perspective

-My favorite rom is Dilligaf 2.0. You should give it a try.

[HTC Inspire 4G] ST3ALTHPSYCH0:
Thanks a abunch guys!

I knew it was really a matter of "when" not "if" (My iPhone was JB when I bought it.... A guy wanted it unlocked, so I JB it for him and then saw that it was 3.1.3 before they had released the exploit for that baseband, so I bought it _CHEAP_)

Anyway, Looks like I have a project for this weekend :D

Since this is my thread, I'll feel free to derail it a bit.....

Any reviewsa on MIUI? I like Sense, but mostly just b/c I think that HTC's clock widget is >*, and I see that MIUI's widget is very similar.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Tx Redneck:
You could just buy beautiful widgets and use it on whatever rom you prefer.

Ultimate Droid.
[HTC Inspire 4G] willwalk93:
I rooted and tried several ROMs. RCMixHD and TB Fusion were both nice, but the keyboard seemed to lag and freexe a good bit on those. Inspired Ace is the ROM I am currently on. I used the battery calibration technique used here to maximize my battery usage. For the battery history section of that thread be sure to grab this app, as the method listed there is not coded into GB ROMs. I have flashed ROMs once or twice and they have not booted, but a simple battery pull and boot to clockworkmod recovery (turn on with power and volume down buttons pressed at the same time then scroll to recovery) to wipe and reflash worked fine.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ST3ALTHPSYCH0:
Well, I now officially have no warranty :D

Waiting for my SD contents to copy back over, and I think I'll start with Inspired Ace.

I welcome recommendations, but for now I think I'll stick with Sense ROMs.
[HTC Inspire 4G] hyun18:
Rooted Inspire running the new Sense 3.0 smooothly with RcMix3d...

Only a few issues that doesnt really bother me liek SRS not working,some resizing issues etc.....

But there is so much more of the good stuffs than the bad stuffs,so thats okay.

(playing tegra games and all those good stuff ) :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] willwalk93:
Havent had to try but I was under the impression that in case something failed epically you could run the stock RUU and have a simple unroot and warranty on process, not that that should be done if something involving the root was what messed it up, as this would be cheating HTC. This IMHO should only be done if another issue needing warranty but unrelated what you have done to your phone has arisen.
[HTC Inspire 4G] hyun18:
Uhhm rootng doesnt void your warranty, I dont like when people say that...

Your just rooting it, unless you turn it in to them while its rooted, then thats stupid.lol
[HTC Inspire 4G] Cerberus2k7:
First android phone and rooted less than 24 hours after purchase using CM7. No real issues. Just a ton of tweaking and I'm very anal when it comes to the UI and how it should look which I would say is the biggest gripe. Having to find apps to do what you want to do.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ST3ALTHPSYCH0:
Please forgive me, but my search-fu is evidently broken.

I'm running Inspired Ace, but I want to flash the newest radio att - 12.39a.60.19_26.06.06.30_M from here. Can anyone point me to the proper RIL download, or are my included drivers fine.... or should I just leave well enough alone (my speedtest results seems a little low)?\

Also, is there an overclockable kernel that works well with Inspired Ace?
[HTC Inspire 4G] willwalk93:
a bit off topic, but go to ROM Manager, download ROM, choose gtg465x ROMs, then select RIL flasher, choose Inspire 4G and the corresponding radio, wait a few second for it to download, then click reboot into recovery when prompted. That's all there is to it its really simple, thanks to gtg465x.

Also, MDJ's v19 kernel supports overclock up to 1.6 GHz and I have had no problems at all with it. Keep minimum speed at 245 MHz and set governor to smarta** and battery life appears to be fine. I honestly have found no need to overclock as it is fast enough on its own. Also, leedroid is supposed to work well, but i have never tried this kernel as MDJ is fine for me.

Hope that solves it for you!
[HTC Inspire 4G] ST3ALTHPSYCH0:
Not off topic at all, exactly what I needed..... At least for the radio. Does this do the radio too, or just the RIL?

Want to make sure I'm reading this right. I flash the radio and then run RIL flasher after I reboot, yeah?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
The gtgx65x ril flasher just does the ril. You need to do the radio on your own.

Do the radio, then the ril.

Inspired Ace 1.0.1¦ XDA Premium
[HTC Inspire 4G] ST3ALTHPSYCH0:
Should I wipe anything?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Not for radios or rils, is my understanding.

Hello

Please help me!

I have connected the phone to amplifier which is broken and now i have problems with my stereo output - only one of the 2 chanels work :( and i think that the sound is with lower quality.

Can you please tell me what i have to find to repair it and is there any connection with the stereo output and the built in speaker?

From where i can buy parts to repair the phone and is it easy to do that?

BTW

I think that the amplifier just have added high voltage to the stereo output of the phone. What may be broken? The chip for stereo(is it only one for the built in speaker and the output?), capacitors or resitors ?

Thanks in advance!
[Desire HD General] crazy-master:
no ideas, or any help?
[Desire HD General] crazy-master:
also when i use headphones(only one of the 2 channels work) and if the volume is not on max the sound is really poor and with bad quality. if the volume is on max, the sound becomes better, but the quality still is not like before.

please tell me what may be broken? the chip for audio(where i can find one) or capacitors and resistors?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronicpoetic:
Hello all,

To keep it concise:

Received my SII from Vodafone yestersday - all is well. :)

Proceeded to flash the phone with XWK37 firmware and rooted the phone by flashing chainfire's insecure kernel, applying root and then flashing the stock XWK37 kernel - have used Odin before and all is well. :)

By the time I finish playing with the phone it's 3.00am so I put the SII on charge (battery at around 30%) - all is still suspiciously well. :)

Get up at 7am to take my kid to school and when I get back I discover that the menu key no longer does anything when pressed (home key and return key still work fine) - it doesn't light up nor does it bring up a menu - all is not well. :(

So far I've tried:

Reflashing both the firmware and kernal - no effect. :(

Removing sim card, sd card and battery - no effect. :(

Hard resetting (both via button method and android privacy menu) / formatting sd card - no effect. :(

Dialling *#*#2663#*#* and updating the touch firmware - no effect. :(

Accused my wife of breaking my phone before she went to work - no effect. :(

Now If it's a hardware problem (which would be disappointing since I've only had the phone for 1 day) then I'm stuck since there is no stock UK Vodafone firmware available yet to flash back to before handing in for repair - plus I don't want to go back to using my N97 in the meantime.

Yes I preordered the N97 before it was released and got myself stuck in an 18 year contract - words can't describe how much I hate that worthless piece of Nokia - I kept it to teach myself a lesson, early adoptions don't pay off.

The only other relevant thing I can think of is that I was trying to install ADW launcher (previously used it a lot) before I went to sleep last night however although the phone claimed that it downloaded and installed - no icon appeared and I was unable to launch it although it's wallpapers showed up when I was switching my live wallpaper.

Can anyone help with any idea's of what it might be aside from a hardware issue?

If it is a hardware issue, anyone know when the Vodafone UK firmware might shown up?

Tell you what, I'll throw in a free N97 for anyone who solves the problem :eek:

Thanks guys.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
K37 firmware ????

I would flash old firmware like WKDD .

Possible with pit and repartition checked if that failed . Not used either yet on SGS2 but always cleared SGS1 by that method .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronicpoetic:
Thanks for the reply jje,

The XWKE7 is the latest generic XEU firmware available from this guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

I flashed it exactly as the guide stipulated.

However I didn't even think to try flashing it to a earlier version to see if the problem might be with the actual firmware.

Should be finishing work in a couple of hours so will try flashing the older XWKDD

firmware and see if that relocates the menu key.

Will update as soon as I know.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronicpoetic:
Damn.

No luck - tried flashing KDD (and also KE1/KE2 for good measure) accompanied by full memory wipes - still no luck. All these firmware files come in one .tar package which i place into the PDA section of Odin.

Even tried one where the pda, modem and csc were split into seperate files from:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278&page=11

Still no return of the menu key.

When I am flashing - I leave the pit section of Odin completely alone and leave re-partition unticked - I take it this is correct?

It's strange because apart from the menu key - the S2 is working perfectly.

The only other thing I can think of is that the Vodafone branded version of the S2 in won't work with any other generic firmware which is pretty unlikely methinks.

jje - "...possible with pit and repartition checked if that failed.." - I didn't quite understand what you were recommending there mate - should I be using a pit file and checking repartition?

Any other ideas guys?

Off to go glare at my wife's dumbed down yet fully working iphone - it's laughing at me...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tururum:
I've got the same problem. The menu button works just when it wants. Sometimes it doesn't react at all, sometimes it works perfectly.

I have KE1 firmware, I have rooted it and unrooted (for sim unlocking), then installed original kernel via Odin. Everything was wonderful and I was the happiest guy in the world! One day later the button began behaving like a goast! as chronicpoetic mentioned.

I would like to try installing the new firmware via Odin, but I am afraid that if it's hardware problem, then it won't be taken by service.

Any suggestions?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blickmanic:
sounds like hardware faults guys :/
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tururum:
Thank you for reply! I thougt it was too, but... read below

I found out something else.

The menu button works, but with an extreme long delay - 15-30 seconds! More often just right after screen unlock. It just appears and disappers 30 times if I pushed it 30 times before.

And still it can work just perfectly. Sometimes after connecting it to PC or charging it. That dosn't work like a rule.

I am trying to find the reason of such unusual behaviour, but I am lack of expirience.

Any help?

All credit goes to DrSadistic for finding this hack...

you need to have played atleast 1 race in the game for this hack to work

Disclaimer : Im not responsible if u bricked ur phone during this process or ur phone.I have tested this myself and worked for me..

So, u want to know how to get $8,000,000 in Need For Speed Shift for Android...

This is what you will need.. :cool:

1.A Brain

2.Hex Software

3.Computer

Here are the steps,

now connect ur phone to usb and enable usb mass storage..

and browse this folder SD\Android\data\com.ideaworks3d.nfsshift\files

there u will see a file called gamedata, copy that to ur desktop :)

Now Make a back up copy of the file tht u just copied,just in case u messed up the process :)

Now Open up the file in a hex editing software :)

then use the goto function usually available in the edit menu..

and enter the value 52 and press ok

now replace the values present in those locations with 7A 12

save the file.

replace the modified file with the one present in sd data :)

now u got good money to buy cars and upgrades :)

[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] ungaze:
lol seriously, the game is easy enough even without cheats(except for those drifting levels), but it's a nice find nevertheless. Anyways, since you guys are into these kind of stuff, I'll share a minor game glitch that I have discovered to beat the game(even by using a 1st tiered car the whole game).

On bends(specially hard curves), physics has declared that the faster you are, the harder it is to turn and vice versa. Well in NFS this is not the case, on a hard turn press nitro just when you're about to get derailed(under steer) and marvel at how your car gets right back on track. Do this successfully on each bend and you could beat any car with a 1 minute lead easily.
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] ccdreadcc:
Damn ppl copy pasting the hack from here to other sites...
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] tripod79:
thanks ccdreadcc for the information about the file! :)

but why you take "7A 12" ?

i tried... then i have 31250 credits... thats dezimal for "7a 12"

i use "FF FF FF". now i have over 16000000 credits
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] Qwallace70129:
does anyone know which values to change my stars count? i suck at drifting and without the stars from those rounds i cant get past Tokyo-1.
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] tripod79:
same problem.

i try to find it.... i hope i have good news in about hours

edit

earned 2 more "stars" in non-drift

now i have two extracted savegames on my pc.

i have to find the two stars difference in gamedata.

but no more time for today :/

i tell you if i have a method for editing "stars".
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] SpaceCaker:
didnt.you know.this is much easier when you have gamecih 2 ??? just type your amount of money it finds it for you in the game and change that nr

much easier and portable

Are you looking to me?? i have an chinese ARMY !! (-(-(-.-)-)-)

Heyy, was wondering what the fastest ROM going is atm. I'm really not too bothered about Sense or any other additions, I'm just looking for something that's speedy with as little lag as possible when opening apps from the launcher and when typing.

What're my options (I'm not too bothered what version)?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcmazinho:
During the night my phone over a period of 6 hours, lost 3% without using any battery, with wifi, gps, data synchronization and automatic everything off. This autonomy is normal? For other devices I had, like the Galaxy and S remained the same with no loss of load in the same situation.

I'm using the rom CoreDroid 6.6, kernel 3.1.2 and Lee 12.54.60.25U_26.09.04.11_M2 Radio.

I thank you all.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawks556:
It's normal, as long as the phone is is on you will lose some charge. Only 3% might be considered quite good actually.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcmazinho:
If I change rom or kernel I get improvements?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawks556:
As I said, 3% is quite good so there's not much room for improvement. The phone can't be on without using any power.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcmazinho:
I understand, but as informed, on other devices, I have not had any loss at night, as was the case with Samsung S Galaxy, and got change for this new rom in your case and discharge the battery of your device in the same situation?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawks556:
Well the SGS is a different phone. The DHD is a more powerful phone and thus uses more battery. The battery capacity isn't the greatest either (1230mAh) and thus it will lose charge faster. 3% drop in 6 hours is nothing to worry about.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcmazinho:
Hawks556 Okay, thank you for the information, I'm certainly more relaxed in knowing that this is normal, anyway I will test other rom and kernel and then post the results here.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawks556:
Allright, but remember to calibrate the battery everytime you flash a new rom and let the rom/kernel settle for a couple of complete battery cycles before comparing.
[Verizon Droid Charge] bbaddict33:
I tried to research this everywhere in the forum but was unable to find anything. So, I apologize if this has already been covered. Additionally, I've tried to research this across the rest of the internet, but I have a few questions:

1.) I really don't care for the way the current touchwiz version looks on the Charge, but I really like touchwiz 4.0, which is running on the Samsung GS2. Does anyone know if the Charge will get touchwiz 4.0?

2.) If it's not going to get touchwiz 4.0, and it doesn't look like I should get this phone if I want Cyanogenmod, but I would be happy with a rom that took it down to stock android. I had an Incredible (before I broke it) that was running Cyanogenmod and loved it. What are the chances of getting a pretty stock version of android running on the Charge?

3.) For those with a Charge running Launcher Pro, how has the battery life been?

Thanks for all the help and sorry if I missed something in the other threads.
[Verizon Droid Charge] papi92:
We probably will get cm. Recently galaxy phones became supported and the charge really is a galaxy phone just called a Droid.
[Verizon Droid Charge] boostedjti:
Development is very slow on the fascinate side. The problem is Samsung code. Also, the new ril is a hack job from my understanding so cm is a ways away.

Getting touchwiz 4.0 is just a matter of porting and I believe that's already done or in the works.
