I have flashed 4EXTRecovery on my device in anticipation of flashing this rom. It says that my partitions are EXT3. Do I need to convert the partitions to EXT4 before flashing or will flashing NoSensi EXT4 Wipe take care of this? Also, I do like the stock People app. Can this be flashed as an add on?
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:
Flash the NoSensi4ext recovery, then the Rom, then the NoSensi to 4g patch. If you happen to flash a theme, I would reboot and setup first. And then flash theme. Oh, and People is a sense component that is kept. Keep the good, rid the trash...

-MyPocketWizard-
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
According to the change log the NoSensi4ext recovery is included now so why flash it first before the Rom?
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:
Then don't flash it first. Simple. I didn't see that, thanks for the heads up.

-MyPocketWizard-
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:
And it does say ext4 recovery is installed automatically, but does it wipe everything first? Why not save chance of a mistake, and just flash the wipe. One minute won't hurt....

-MyPocketWizard-
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
It installs the recovery automatically but the wipe script is something different and required if coming from a different Rom.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
Well, I am coming from a different rom, so I will flash the wipe first. Does anyone know if I need to flash the recommended radio before applying the Inspire patch? I was planning on trying to run on the stock radio and only flashing the recommended if needed, since the stock radio works so well in my area.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:
Gotcha. I was under the impression ext4 wipe also Installed ext 4 if not already.

-MyPocketWizard-

For the life of me, I don't know why...
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
I just checked file sizes and the recovery is like 5mb and the wipe script is 142kb.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:
Makes sense.... Thanks for clearing that up.

-MyPocketWizard-
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
Thanks for all your input. I'm considering flashing this and I just want to make sure I have all my ducks lined up before flashing it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:
You don't need to flash a radio BEFORE the patch. However, ROMS are most compatible with recommended radios, so if you notice issues you may try flashing the radio recommended in the OP. Give it a shot, some folks have better luck with thier radio of choice .....

-MyPocketWizard-

You may need to change your RIL to match your radio. To check your RIL open terminal emulator and type su then getprop gsm.version.RIL-imple

If you do change RIL, be sure to mount system in recovery, then flash and reboot.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:
No no, thank you sir. I am sure you will enjoy it. Victoryo has made a gem of a Rom here. And all addons are NoSensi compatible! It's a first NoSense Rom with a nonsense theme, that I know.of.

-MyPocketWizard-
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
I completely forgot about needing the matching ril. I think I will just go with the recommended radio. Thanks for all the help.
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
I keep all radios and rils on my sd card this way I can flash on the fly. This is especially useful if you travel a lot and find your chosen radio doesn't work so well in the area your traveling to.
[HTC Inspire 4G] swatcop1:
Do I have this right before I begin?

1) flash noSensi EXT4 Wipe

This will wipe my device automatically so I do nothing after flashing, just go

to next step?

2) flash "NoSensi to inspire 4G"

Same thing, do nothing after flashing and go to next step?

3) flash NoSensi 1.0.4 ROM, reboot...then

4) flash recommended radio

Never messed around with EXT4 before...really not sure what it is...anything I need to know.

thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:
Swatcop, these are the steps I flash in : and you can flash your radio either before or after all this...

Optional : flash radio - reboot, reboot into recovery,

Flash ext4 wipe

Flash NoSensi v1.0.4

Flash NoSensi patch

Reboot

Reboot into recovery : (flash radio, if not flashed already)

-MyPocketWizard-
[HTC Inspire 4G] swatcop1:
Got it thanks!

Will give it go this afternoon..
[HTC Inspire 4G] swatcop1:
Why come when I download the recommended radio in the OP it gives me file and not a PD98IMG zip like all other radios. What I do with this? With the img zip you would go into bootloader and take it from there. I noticed you mentioned recovery?
[HTC Inspire 4G] bdpyo:
Don't quote me on this but I think you can extract the actual img file to the root of the SD card via root explorer then boot to bootloader, then flash...

HTC Inspire 3G.
[HTC Inspire 4G] swatcop1:
I noticed the radio is in the radio thread/forum but that has a different sum number.
[HTC Inspire 4G] swatcop1:
Not fimiliar with that method.
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
If you extract the file it explains how to install it in the read me file. Or you can download the radio from the radio thread and flash it as a zip from recovery.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:
Check out this link for your radio and RIL flashing, questions, directions, etc.... This link is very detailed. There are even multiple rils for some radios, including this one. Just remember to mount system when flashing rils, and for the radio files the link will have, powering off, and into bootloader. Providing you renamed the file PDIMG98.zip, it will do the work .... The link is a good one to bookmark...

-MyPocketWizard-

Edit: link to radio thread : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1106324
[HTC Inspire 4G] victoryo:
To flash the radio i provided you have to extract the package.

After that connect your phone to your pc with the usb cable and choose charge only.

Then you double click the start here.bat file.

A dos screen will pop up.

Now you type the following:

Adb reboot bootloader (the phone will restart in usb bootloader menu)

Then type : fastboot flash radio radio.img (the radio now will be installed on the phone)

Finally type: fastboot reboot (your phone will reboot with the new radio)

that's it mate!
[HTC Inspire 4G] swatcop1:
I can handle that but the radio file in the radio threads sum number is different than the radio file in the OP. Is that due to one being a IMG file while the other being a rar file? If so no problem I know how to handle the IMG file.
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
The check sum is for the zip file in the radio thread not the actual IMG file that's why it's different.
[HTC Inspire 4G] swatcop1:
Guys I flashed everything and it seems things went ok. Just got called to go out and will be on my phone a lot for the next couple of day so I did not want to take any chances on a new ROM so I went back to my MIUI backup knowing everything is working (will try NoSensi a little later). Any how now when I went into recovery to restore, i was confused with all the new 3 and 4 EXT files/systems and everything was reformatted. Wasn't sure what I had to wipe etc before restoring my backup.... so I did a system/reset wipe and I believe i messed with the 3 and 4 EXT, not sure maybe formatted and wiped or something (I know this was stupid).

Did my restore and everything is back and working with my Miui ROM again.

Now when i go into recovery i notice i have more selections and its formatted different. It say 4EXT Recovery v2.0.1 (if I remember correctly) at the top.

Did i mess anything up? With these new 3 and 4ext files/partitions do i need to do anything with this if I flash a new ROM or just stay away from them?

What exactly are they for?????? Is my thinking right that I now have a advanced recovery which displays partitions within my SD card were as the earlier version simply didn't show it?

Is there a way to put everything back to the way it was (relative to recovery) or best to just leave alone?

Sorry for all the questions.

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
I'm on board. Nice rom. Just what I was looking for, clean and fast with almost all of Sense stripped out. I got my apns in and working good and gps works excellent. Seems I may need to go back to the stock radio and just flash the proper ril for it. It was working better for me than the recommended radio, even without the matching ril. The stock radio works really good in my area. Other than that, everything seems great so far. I will give some feedback on battery life tomorrow. Nice work dev and thanks for this rom.
[HTC Inspire 4G] egomezmorales:
Flashed last night, very happy with the speed of this rom, any chance of including some of the HTC widgets?

[HTC Inspire 4G] dtothesquare:
After flashing the recommended radio, I had a vast improvement with my GPS. Before using the recommended radio, my GPS lock was within 50 feet. After flashing the radio, GPS locked within seconds and was within 10 feet. Loving this ROM thus far.

I like having a stock experience, but I enjoy some of the retained Sense apps. I loved cm7, but it had terrible GPS. Overall, I'm loving this ROM and look forward to more improvements to it!
[HTC Inspire 4G] victoryo:
I know it mate! Working on a fix, thanks :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
I hated the fact that Sense would waste battery syncing and half the time not even sync. I do miss some of the smaller widgets that are in the Hub. I'm going to work on seeing if the Hub can be installed as an add on and if the widgets will work.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bdpyo:
Oh ok, thank you for the quick reply. :D

[HTC Inspire 4G] swatcop1:
Also If and when I flash a new ROM do I need to wipe any of these partitions along with system data/restore, cache and delvik...?
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:
Ok Swatcop, here we go... (Anyone else feel free to elaborate)

I would say its best to leave your current ext4 recovery, the last four roms I have flashed all utilize this new recovery, and the ones that haven't, are hopping on board it seems. It's basically the same thing going on there, just layed out a little differently, and it seems that its a little easier to navigate through and around. Almost everyone is including some sort of wipe with thier roms, so it may not be necessary to wipe your partitions manually, unless there is no wipe. In that case, yes, before flashing ANY Rom always wipe data, system, cache, dalvik. Just good practice to do before every flash (of a Rom especially) and it doesn't take too long. The new recovery left me somewhat uneasy too, but now I love it! Hang in there, you will get it down in a jiffy....

-MyPocketWizard-
[HTC Inspire 4G] swatcop1:
Ok, thanks you for your response. Was sorta freaking out over this change. I try to keep up with changes and understand them.

Also the different partitions (3/4EXT) are just different sections of a SD card? I always had this, its just that I was unable to see it before? Is my thinking correct in layman's terms....
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
3 and 4 are just different file systems i.e Fat32, etc......
[HTC Inspire 4G] jaxboater:
Great ROM.

I just left a MIUI. I think the line battery display option is great (like VistaHide for WM 6.5).

Any chance of getting something like that for this ROM?

GPS locks quick & everything else seems smooth.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rawb123456:
Any way to get the expanded quick setting in the notification pull down?
[HTC Inspire 4G] victoryo:
You mean more quick settings? BTW new version is on his way! Fixed the MMS max size and more! :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] victoryo:
New version is up! Check the changelog!:D
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:

[HTC Inspire 4G] bdpyo:
EDIT; with the provided tinny fix on calls, mine did not work.

Not saying it's the ROM because I think there has only been one ROM I have not had to flash the fix for.

1MB MMS, hell yea! and I really like the font!

[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
Having notifications issues. I have a shortcut to the Messages app on the homescreen. With the stock rom, when I received a text, it would give me a notification on the shortcut icon. It doesn't do that with this rom, but I can do without it, since I do get a notification in the taskbar. What I don't like is the fact that my led is not flashing for any notifications. That I would prefer to see a fix for. Any ideas?
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:
Maybe a MMS wipe? I haven't had chance to flash the new version yet. House is full of kids!!!

Anyways maybe settings > applications > all > mms (messages) clear data...

-MyPocketWizard-
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
Thanks. That did it, led now working. I already flashed the new version. Everything is still running smooth and battery life is good. I haven't got home home to test wifi yet. GPS is still awesome.
[HTC Inspire 4G] egomezmorales:
Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:
So far Rom is running great! Flashed the inspire patch no problems, and also the HoneyHD NoSensi theme. Battery was low, so in the process of.draining and going to give her a full recharge. Looks good feels good - stills smooth as ever. You can get scared with updates - sometimes its like how can you fix what isn't broken? But this seems good...

Great that everything is running well mate!

If you find any problems let me know :D

Hi,

Thanks for great ROM.

One issue.

In navigation I no longer can drive to contacts. It says that: "You don't have any contacts with addresses."

Any clue?
[HTC Inspire 4G] bdpyo:
wow, the battery life on this is insane!

after 20 hours im still at 70% with light to moderate use, texting, phone calls and checking facebox once in a while.

most of the time i have wifi on and data off, no syncing and no gps since my phone sucks. lol
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:
Yeah its wild! Even with heavy use I get twelve easily.... And for the dude with the Navigation problem. Try this, settings > applications > manage apps > all > navigation clear data. Give it another go round and see what happens. And you are synced with Google right? Maybe clearing maps or resyncing contacts.

-MyPocketWizard-
[HTC Inspire 4G] Simba501:
A few more questions.

I have some modifications I want to make to the systemui and framework-res apks. Can I pull those apks from the ROM zip, modify them, and put them back? Or would this interfere with the install when I flash it?

I've read over the OP and the entire thread and didn't see anything of concern. Are there any known issues?

I saw that to change the clocking, you recommend changing the scripts. Could I still use a clocking app, as opposed to changing the scripts? I like to experiment with varying profiles and frequencies and I'd like to do so without having to flash a different script every time. Especially since they won't have the custom profiles I like to set up (in call, temperature, etc.). Is using an app (SetCPU) ok?
[HTC Inspire 4G] MisiuKP:
I cleared data and my contact are sync trough exchange - doesn't work.

Maybe the new version (5.8) of map is responsible for that?:confused:
[HTC Inspire 4G] bootsie99:
I ran this without flashing the radio, loved the ROM. However I would lose data service contstantly so I tried flashing the radio and I would use the ADB and it would tranfer the radio file OK, but would FAIL when writing radio file.

Any thoughts?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Simba501:
I would recommend getting the radio file from the Inspire Radio thread (it gives it to you in a PD98IMG zip file, which can easily be applied through bootloader).

Inspire Radio Thread

His recommended radio is in that list. Ensure that you have the correct one, then download. Instructions are in the post. Also, please make sure the MD5 number of the file you download matches the MD5 as provided by the post. You can easily do this by getting Astro File Manager, finding the file, long press the file, and select details. Soon, at the bottom of the popup window, you'll see a long string of numbers and letters. Make sure this matches the string of numbers and letters found in the post where you got the radio. This will ensure the process goes smoothly (by checking to see if the file you have is the exact match of the download).

Good luck.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bootsie99:
Here is what I am getting

C:\Users\cmbauer\Desktop\Radio>adb reboot bootloader

adb server is out of date. killing...

* daemon started successfully *

C:\Users\cmbauer\Desktop\Radio>fastboot flash radio radio.img

writing 'radio'... FAILED (remote: not allowed)

finished. total time: 4.155s
[HTC Inspire 4G] Pirateghost:
if you dont have eng boot s-off, then you need it in PD98IMG.zip format.....
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:
And as long as your md5 checksum is the same you have nothing to worry about. Just download over your phone, using a file manger move the image.zip to the root of SD card - power down, and back up into bootloader... It will scan for the zip, and ask for permission to install your new radio....

-MyPocketWizard-
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:
Check it out, you CAN use setcpu, or any other clocking app, but the results you see won't be as efficient (battery or operation) as using a daemon script. The daemon script is written into the system so that you avoid having to use the middleman app, resulting in less memory usage and more efficient and instantaneous CPU management. Means more battery and less startup lag...

As far Ar issues, there really aren't any to report. Any there were have been fixed. Basically flash and enjoy!

Navigation - I don't know buddy.... Perhaps if your contacts were synced thru Google it would work, or maybe it is the new maps update. Have you tried installing the update, wiping data, and trying again?

-MyPocketWizard-

Edit: I believe if you unzip a file - it must be signed when zipped or it won't flash? I may be missing something else here, not sure....
[HTC Inspire 4G] bootsie99:
Worked perfect thank you!
[HTC Inspire 4G] MisiuKP:
Navigation issue.

Deleted maps and installed old one (5.4) and navigation trough contacts is back.

When I updated maps to 5.8 contacts are gone again.

Looks like the new maps are messed up, at least for me.
[HTC Inspire 4G] victoryo:
Yeah, its not recommend to use setcpu if you want to change something in the CPU settings because the daemon OC doesn't work anymore than! But there is an app out here called DaemonController (Credits to Sybregunne) so you can change the values on the fly! Maybe it's something for you to play with :D

And thanks for the feedback of the google maps. Didn't try it out myself but i will take a look at it! :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Simba501:
Great! Definitely gonna give it a look see.

[HTC Inspire 4G] dyliho:
So this app won't override the daemon settings like other clocking apps? The others deactivated it (edit: daemon script) even if not used from what I have read...

One more thing Victoryo, have you read about the new hipri settings in henrybravos apn thread? Any chance of incorporating those with the next update? About to give it a whirl myself, see if it makes a difference...

I installed this rom following directions, install dhd to inspire patch, honey theme and it is running great. Really nice job in stripping out sense. I use zeam launcher, really fast.

Great Job!
[HTC Inspire 4G] victoryo:
No it won't override the settings because it reads the daemon settings and uses it! ;)

Lol are you really using that? Because that is not good! The included kernel doesn't support OC up to 1843Mhz. :eek:

If I understand correctly - Yes the mms app is threaded. I actually didn't even notice the old bubbles were gone till you asked this.
