This is an unsigned PD98IMG so you must have S-OFF and it won't touch your data or cache partitions so you should clear dalvik and cache, and you may need to do a full wipe if you had an EXT4 partition before, or some other oddity with /data so backup (titanium and nandroid just to be sure). All AT&T bloatware included.

Instructions: Download it, rename to PD98IMG.zip, copy it to your SDCARD, then boot into hboot (hold VOL-DOWN and press POWER) then let hboot finish its check and then hit VOL-UP to install.

Well, your tool is stripping it as it's superfluous more or less. If I type 01234 into my calculator, it just shows 1234. MD5 is just a hexadecimal number. Leading zeros are treated the same as decimal numbers.

thanks.
[HTC Inspire 4G] inconceeeivable:
"Unlocked" as in carrier unlocked? That's not the same as S-off.

S-off in the bootloader means you can flash unsigned (unofficial) images. S-on means your phone will only accept official images.

Football's RUU in the OP can be flashed onto a stock Inspire (S-on). The rooted image several posts down requires S-off as it's not official.

I don't think their's any way to really know if this is the Official GB that AT&T will release.

I was thinking of putting it on, but the question is. If this isn't the the version that AT&T releases, will we still be able to get the OTA for the final release?

Also, being as I am more familiar with flashing Samsung phones, I am a bit of a noob in flashing HTC's. The stock GB in this thread, what do you have to do to install it?

Oh, and is the bootloader unlocked with this release?
[HTC Inspire 4G] mcslamer:
About the bootloader HTC did say that all future devices will come with the bootloader unlocked but I'm wondering if this update to GB will have the unlocked bootloader I would say yes.

Why?

What is the value of this vs a Custom ROM? I'm on LeeDroid 2.3.3, etc. If I try this will it wipe my data and return to Stock / rooted-Stock?

Thx m8s!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
The value is that it is a genuine Inspire Gingerbread bas from which we can make new ROMs without all the hassle of monkeying with DesireHD quirks.

Yes, it will completely wipe your data partition. Note that my rooted version a few posts down ignores data partition, but may or may not have problems depending on what prior ROM you were running. I posted this as a base for other devs to examine, not as a normal ROM. For that, see:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1193244
[HTC Inspire 4G] chocodough:
Well I just bit the bullet and installed the Stock version.

As with most updates, the only thing noticable up front are just some cosmetic changes. Probably cause it's running Sense 2.1. I gather the majority of changes are "Under the Hood".

A few observations so far.

The weather widget now has sounds. You can toggle them off if you don't like them.

The netflix 1.3 app still works fine in 2.3 as it did in 2.2.

The Unknown Sources checkbox is included.

For people like me who hate the Fast Boot option and wish to turn it off. They moved it from Applications to Privacy under settings.

When you lower the status bar window, there is a tab on the bottom now for "Quick Settings", which will let you toggle BT, WiFi, GPS, WiFi HotSpot and Mobile Network.

But the biggest issue I still see wasn't addressed, is that Under About Phone and Network, it still displays HSDPA under Mobile Network Type instead of HSPA like it should when you are in a 4G area. The Atrix with the GB update properly displays that. I don't know why the Inspire doesn't.

Also so far the speaker quality is just as bad as it was under 2.2. Either HTC has people with hearing problems in their engineering department, or they just use crappy speakers in their phones, which is what I think. Bad components.

Well that's just a few things so far. I'm still checking it out. Hopefully this is the final version being pushed out this month.

Hi Thanks,

Maybe I did not explain myself, after installing this ROM if I go to the menu

Settings -> AT&T Software Update

I have only one option "Check for updates", the option "HTC Wi-Fi software update" option is not longer available.

Maybe my question should had been be the stock ROM has the option "HTC Wi-Fi software update"

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
I don't know. Maybe its because HTC doesn't plan on any more updates? I just checked my wife's stock phone and it doesn't have it either. There is an option in "About Phone" for "Software Updates" that I don't remember seeing in Froyo.

[HTC Inspire 4G] dionieins:
First of all, thanks a lot to gene and to everybody for this tremendous effort!

The only thing I could do with my Inspire, besides using it as a paperweight, was to get into hboot, because when I tried to get into Recovery, it always went to a black screen with a red triangle with a small icon representing my phone.

Thing is that I screwed my phone trying to fix the media audio (because all the audio was gone, except by the call audio, which has a separated speaker) so that happened suddenly to my phone while I was running the lastest MIUI for Inspire. So in order to fix that, I decided to run the ace hack kit, and the phone finished like I said before, only with the chance of getting into Hboot.

After flashing the image posted in this thread through hboot, the phone comes to live again, but... guess what.... still no audio, the only audio I've is the voice audio for receiving calls, but no ringtones or media at all.

After all this adventure, should I conclude that I'm facing a hardware problem of audio? Should I try running from this rom the ace hack kit and doing a downgrade or something like that?

Please any help would be highly appreciated!!!

[HTC Inspire 4G] legend221:
You are an amazing man Gene. This worked perfectly.

Flashing this ROM is my last resort prior to returning this phone. I've had gps issues on various custom roms and have gone to be soo tired of it. My next step is to return this unit and hope the gps actually works. Other than that this phone has been amazing to me. To clarify, my turn by turn does not work via Google Maps. Tried it all from flashing all kinds of patches, sooooo many Roms, taking the case off to help it triangulate, aftermarket apps, other changes to the ROM after its flashed. Nothing has been able to rectify this problem.

On the plus side what Gene has provided has made Google Navigation work again.. honestly my problem is a hardware issue I believe. Will be returning for a newer Inspire soon if my issue persists.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
Just be aware that even though this rom takes you back to stock, you are still rooted and s-off. If you want to go back to non rooted and s-on for warranty purposes, Gene has a tool for that in the development threads.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Major_Sarcasm:
So, I've messed around with pixel density on my HD2 and now my SGS2 as well. One thing has always intrigued me; what is the native pixel density of these screens (given that the HD2 and the SGS2 share size/res).

So I worked it out thus (robbed straight from wikipedia):

1. Calculate diagonal resolution in pixels using the Pythagorean theorem:

2. Calculate PPI:

where

dp is diagonal resolution in pixels,

wp is width resolution in pixels,

hp is height resolution in pixels and

di is diagonal size in inches

So, the diagonal resolution is: 933 = square root of ((480x480)+(800x800))

The native pixel density should be 218.5 = (933 / 4.27)

Does that make sense to anyone or am I barking completely up the wrong tree? Maths never was my strong point ;)

The above also assumes that the screen is exactly 4.3 inches diagonally.

Edit: This page shows the screen to be 4.27". Info amended above. Calculations checked and wiki info confirmed. Might change my pixel density to 218/219 ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdalacu:
You are right, that is the native screen dpi.

But, I think, that applications that are running in 800x480 are designed with 240 dpi as standard. Dpi is nothing more that a constant of the device provided to applications for calculations of text font size and layout of controls . That is my guess and I find comfortable a dpi of 200 for this device.

See what happens in windows when you change system font size (dpi)!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Major_Sarcasm:
Yes, thank you. That was the info I was missing: the exact size of the screen. I will edit my original post.
[EVO 4G General] sonicdivx:
Sorry about the post as this may not be the best place for it.

My phone got low on memory so was trying to clear stuff, it rebooted then on the loading screen (Myn RLS 5) perpetually restarted. So went into recovery

and tried to do a backup (so could format as my last backup was old) and it threw an error in mid -backup (did write it down, doh!!)

Now the phone does the 5 vibration thing and does boot. Also SD won't mount get " /dev/block/mmcblk0p1" error. Also I now notice the phone reset to "S-on" I had a long time ago rooted with unRevoked Forever.

I have read several posts about this , but confused on the best way (instructions) to get a img file on and reinstalled. I have used adb before but only basically , unfortunately my computer at work doesn't have adb installed so cannot test things now.

So if anyone has a good one or two methods for me to try tonight, would be much appreciated. Also totally surprised that security went to "on" so probably have to address that first.

Oh phone is EVO, HBOOT 0.93 , Radio 2.15.00.05.02 . If I should post this somewhere please feel free to direct me there.

EDIT: I have ClockworkMod Recovery 2.6.01 installed and can get into it.
