Absolutely awesome!

Just had to drop in to say that i LOVE this rom.

Im new to android (2 days) I had an iphone 4 for a while, then got it stolen and went back to my old button phone, then finally saved up enough cash to get an Inspire used off contract.

When i first turned on the inspire, i was pretty happy with it, but it seemed kinda cluttered and over-done.

So i figured out how to root it, rooted it, then installed android revolution, because i didnt want to give up on sense yet... It was ok, still pretty cluttered and not really what i was looking for.

Then i found cm7 and miui and though that looked more like what i was looking for. So i saw BBmod and decided to give it a try...

WOW, night and day difference. I Love it. So smooth, fast, simple, looks great, and haven't run into anything that doesn't work yet.

Im still a newb to android in general, and theres still some things i'd like to change and customize, but im sure ill be able to figure out how.

Amazing work! Thank you.

Now for a couple questions...

1. The GPS... Im not sure, but it seems like it might not lock as fast, or be as accurate as it was before... any tweaks that might make it work better?

2. The clock... I like the clock that comes with the mod, and the look of it (like on the lockscreen) But i'd like a widget on my homescreen that does the same thing... time, date, basic weather, then when you click on it it brings up the clock app. not sure how to do this...

Anyway, still absolutely awesome. Thanks.
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
First off thanks!

Ok for the GPS

1.Open BBModTool, the first Tab is GPS Config Settings. I would try the AT&T Config or the Generic Config. Be sure to grant it Superuser access when it asks.

2. Try the following http://qr.ai/uqwtf for your widget request or http://qr.ai/uqwt9
[HTC Inspire 4G] brandontw:
Awesome... ill give that a shot!

Thanks for all your hard work...:)

Edit: Small donation coming your way... thanks again.

Small request can you enable boot audio in the next release?
[HTC Inspire 4G] brandontw:
A couple more questions.

Howdy again... been using your rom for a few more days now.. Still love it.

A couple more questions for ya...

I see your on 1.3.5 now, and im still running 1.3.3... is it worth it for me to update? And if it is, how do i do it? Do i wipe and re-install, losing all my stuff? Do i just install over the top? How does that work?

Also... whats up with the music app? You cant delete it, but you cant update it either, I downloaded the new music app so i would work with google music beta, and now i have two music apps with identical icons side by side...

My gps is all crazy. I dont know if its the phone or app, but i went on a 1.7 mile run yesterday, and it told me i did 3.9 miles... 4 min pace tho! :) Any ideas for fixing my gps?
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
The music app that ships is different from the music app in the market. Try the different GPS fixes in BBmodtool. Just install 1.3.5 over 1.3.3 no wipe needed.

So I'm still kind of new some some of this so I wanna ask a couple questions...can u successfully run the inspire at 2000 MHz? Does it make that much of a difference? Lol and last but not least what exactly is undervolting?

Sent with my inspire running BBMod lordmod kernal
[HTC Inspire 4G] trell959:
Yes it will run at 2ghz. But not for long of you leave it that high. But I do not I repeat do not recommended it. The highest I go is 1.5. There isn't a need to go higher. And undervolting is when you set your phone to use less voltage at different CPU speeds thus saving battery. If you set voltage too low, you phone may become unstable and vice versa.
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
I never overclock mine over 1382. Honestly I don't see any performance enhancements any higher than that anyway. Mine gets unstable at 1800. The one time I tried to go to 2ghz it pretty much just crashed immediately and rebooted. 2ghz is foolish for this device

Sent from A Van Down By The River!
[HTC Inspire 4G] joshua54:
Thank s for such quick responses! One more question though, any recommendations on undervolt setting?

Sent with my inspire running BBMod lordmod kernal
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
See what your phone can handle. Try 25 then try 50 and so on. Pinky undervolting is the most aggressive of all of them. If your phone does not boot after undervolting re boot to recovery and then flash the zip file that is in the resetuv directory of your sd card

Hey flappjaxx,any idea why scripts I add to init.d don't run at boot? I've got one that is to change dsp to srs and another that sets powersave_bias for ondemand governor. Both will execute if I run them straight from script manager, but if I put them in init.d they don't execute. Any ideas?
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
Did you set the permissions on them to make them executable?

Sent from A VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!
[HTC Inspire 4G] sugardaddy1979:
Sure did. Never had a problem before.

What are the benefits of the sound script and how do you tell if the scripts are active or not?

Sent from A VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!
[HTC Inspire 4G] sugardaddy1979:
The dsp script turns the dsp chip on and makes music sound tremendously better. Alienmind has the ability to turn it on in his ICETool app on blackice. You can hear that it worked, but not sure how to see that it did. On powersave_bias I go to sys/devices/cpu/cpufreq /ondemand /powersave_bias and open as text to see if it applied
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
I will have to look into this later. If it is placed in init.d with executable permissions it should work. Not sure why it isn't.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Pick_A_Name:
Is this something that DSP Manager does or do you have to turn it on with a script?
[HTC Inspire 4G] sugardaddy1979:
Dsp manager can't turn Dolby or srs on. Go to terminal emulator and type so hit enter. Then tupe snd3254 -dspmode 12

That will turn on srs a spk. It will also show a list of others. Dolby seems to be hugged though. Beware of battery drain though. Sometimes dsp chip won't turn off. A simple press of volume down when music is off will stop drain.

Odd Battery Problem

This issue has only started since flashing the BBMod Rom, so I assume this post belongs here.

I have an Inspire 4g rooted with ace hack kit. I am still using the radio that was installed when I rooted. I am running BBMod v1.4.4b w/ LordModUE 8.1 (Same problems occured with previous BBMod version).

I have noticed that usb charging is all but nonexistent and AC charging is very slow (via HTC charger & cable). If I play a game or stream video, the battery drains even when plugged into AC charger. I plugged into an off brand car charger and that seems to work better.

I thought that the battery stats might need to be wiped, so I charged to 100, wiped the battery stats in recovery and let it drain to 0. Here is where I first uncovered my biggest issue.

When I tried to boot the phone it hung up on the android logo screen. I pulled the battery and replaced, as soon as the cover was re-attached the phone would boot and hang on the android screen again. The only way around this was to keep the cover off and hold the battery in place and HBoot into recovery. From there I could power down the phone and plug it in to charge. The only fix I could find was to wipe and re-flash the Rom.

So, I cannot re-calibrate my battery, which is annoying, but the main problem is that if the phone shuts off due to a lack of charge it will always stick on the android logo screen.

Is there anything I can do to to fix the problem with locking up after a battery drain?
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
What version of the rom and have you tried to do a full wipe and clean install? First time hearing about this sort of issue from this rom.

Sent from A VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!
[HTC Inspire 4G] RTSchneider0920:
First happened with 1.4.0, and still happening with 1.4.3b LordMod versions.

I have to do a full wipe and clean install to fix the issue initially, but it happens again if the battery runs down to 0/phone shuts off.
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
Honestly it sounds like a possible hardware issue. Bad charger or charger port. USB charging will almost always be slower with any device

Sent from A VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!
[HTC Inspire 4G] RTSchneider0920:
I have used both 1.4.0 (LordMod) and 1.4.3b (LordMod). I thought I was using 1.4.4,b, but I checked, and was mistaken. I have used superwipe 2.0 and I have also wiped data, cache, dalvik cache, and battery stats - the only thing I haven't wiped is the sd card. Do I need to wipe the sd card? If so, what format should I choose?
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
Do you have a lot of apps on the sdcard?

[HTC Inspire 4G] RTSchneider0920:
Okay, so I failed my comp sci roots. Check that the power is on, then check the cables and plugs... I skipped right to the software. I went to Walmart and picked up a spare usb cable. Now everything is charging like it supposed to.

It seems that the HTC cable is faulty or got broken. The output was enough that the phone thought it was charging, but in fact it was draining to completely dead. Thanks for the assistance.

I was determined to find a way to make BBMod work on my phone, because, put simply, it is awesome. Thanks for making it!

[HTC Inspire 4G] rockballa86:
couple questions.

1. My modtools app keeps force closing when trying to install google apps. Whats going on, is there a fix?

2. How do I get my contacts on my simcard to display? Im on ATT and I know they are there because I see them when I put the sim in another phone, but I cant seem to import/display them now.

Thanks in advance!
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
Not sure about your contacts on your sim card. I keep mine synced to my google account so they never need to go on my sim card. I sort of remember there being some sort of issue with CM7 Roms and sim contacts. Maybe try the following for that:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.needom.simcontacts

Also the Google apps in Modtools is a 25MB download so you need to be either on 3G or Wifi to get it in a reasonable amount of time. Once you hit it let it do its thing, it will seem frozen but it is working in the background. Let it do its thing and if it throws up a warning DO NOT hit Force Close hit Wait and it will finish, once it is done you will need to reboot. I am working on a better way to accomplish all of this.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Dinman:
Hey flappjaxxx,

Just curious.... Out of all your versions, is there one that you like better than the rest?

Reason I ask is, it seems some of the nightlies are better than others... Just wanted your opinion.

Thanks for all the work you do also !

Flap, I'm still on your ROM that matches up with rc 1. Does you're bbmod GPS tool still grab the latest GPS config? Or do I need to grab something from the GPS fix thread?
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
I always roll with the latest version. Typically I am one version ahead of releases so I can test before release.

BBModTools is now Just ModTools and yes it grabs the latest GP configs
[HTC Inspire 4G] substance12:
I wanted to stay on cm stable. Will your old tool still grab the latest GPS config?

Yes it will but my latest version is perfectly stable. Be brave! You can do it! Latest version is slick!

Latest version is awesome flap super stable and fast I think I wont over clock for the first time :) but I have one slight problem I am trying to install the Netflix blue pack it installs and all but we I reboot it doesn't open and I have to reinstall app again just little thing that it really doesn't matter if I can't get it to work but maybe I'm doing something wrong? ??

Ok, so I have been running this for a few days andnitnhad been great!

One thing that I have run into that I cannot figure out...

When ever I answer a call, my ear piece is very loud, but when I lower the volume, according to the level it is all the way down. It makes a big jump from loud to all the way down. It does this with every call.

Is this a bug or is there some setting somewhere that is resetting it?

When I use the blutooth in my truck I run the volume all the way up. Is it sticking to this setting?

I cannot run the blutooth down as there is no way I will be able to hear anything.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
What version are you on? Do you use the speaker phone function? It may be a Bluetooth issue. Hard to tell. Which version and kernel? Are you using dsp manager or volume+ ?

Sent from A VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!
[HTC Inspire 4G] dschreiber69:

Should I try mikes super wipe script and reflash?

I did format and wipe data cache, dalvik. Prior to flashing.
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
Try the latest version 1.6.3b

Super wipe script is not necessary. My installer formats the system partition itself. You probably don't even need to wipe data but wouldn't hurt.

I will try a redownload and flash when I get home.

What is everyone's experience with kernels???
[HTC Inspire 4G] dschreiber69:
I just flashed a backup of a sense rom prior and all is well. I am assuming at this point it may have been a bad download.

Would still like to know everyone's preference on kernel and why.

Thanks guys.
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
Its possible on the bad download compare checksums. Not sure if something you installed could be the problem. Who knows. A lot of variables could be the cause. Never had the sound issue you are talking about. I prefer LordModUE kernel just because I have been using it for the longest time. Talon has some stability issues with undervolting in this version but does have dual mic support while LordModUE does not but will in the next release.

[HTC Inspire 4G] dschreiber69:
Well I know it does not make any sense... but I re-downloaded 1.6.3b Lord mod - prolem still persists with no one able to hear me talking on the phone. Maybe that is a good thing :p

I verified MD5 - did a full wipe. Tried downloading from a different computer. :confused:

Out of ideas. Maybe it is just something with my phone seeing how no one else is having this issue. I was just getting use to this bad boy too!

I am going to give absolution a try seeing as they seem somewhat similar from what I can see anyway.

I will also try the version using the TA kernel

If anyone has any insight, I would sure but up for trying anything! This rom is pretty sweet!

Hi, guys

I just got myself a Xperia Play though I am an Ex user for Xperia X10 and Xperia Arc.

Can I check with you all whether which Emulators are Good for Xperia Play and where can I find them?
[Xperia Play General] bubblegumballoon:
well the best PS1 emulator is on the market and its called FPSE. it plays most games flawlessly and is worth the cost.

All the other good emulators are not on the market, you get them from slideme

every emulator runs great on the xperia play. n64oid is probably the toughest to emulate but even really heavy games like orcarina of time run relatively well with only minor sound issues.

Whats shaking?

My momma was at an Alice Cooper concert this past week, and the guy next to her, she said, was taking amazing pictures with his android while she was taking crappy ones on her iPhone 3g. lolol, That kind of thing is the most important for her because of her grandbabies and such. She is realizing it is time for a new phone.

Anyway, I suppose my question for the Inspire forum is, out of the phones available for ATT, I was interested in the HTC Inspire for her because

1, I have an EVO and am a fan of HTC

2, I am a fan of the roms and work done for the htc EVO

So I'm wondering if the Inspire has a good following or is it worth getting?

Maybe the motorola atrix is better as far as being new, more options with roms and such, idk. I don't keep up with ATT really.

With my experience in the past, I am not a fan of motorola, personally.

Any suggestions?

thanks in advance:confused:
[HTC Inspire 4G] cavsoldier19d:
Coming to an inspire thread, you know that you are going to get biased opinions lol. I would recommend the inspire over the atrix. From my understanding and from what I've read, the general consensus is the atrix was supposed to be ATT' s flagship Android phone by hardware stats, but ended up being a fail of a phone. There are some atrix owners who swear by it, but there was a mass of people trading in their atrix for the inspire. The main deal breakers for a lot of people was that the screen was too small, the front facing camera has such poor quality that its not even worth using, don't like the motoblur UI, and the development for the atrix doesn't come close to the inspire. Inspire vs the atrix is a classic example that hardware stats aren't everything. It's the overall experience and features you get with the phone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] SuicideMyk:
best phone I bought in a long time... it's fast and smooth, I love the screen size it's much better to view.. the pictures and video come out really nice for a cam phone... I've recommended this phone to a few friends and family and they love it :cool:

[HTC Inspire 4G] Jake33108:
Well I think the Inspire is a much better choice than the Atrix. From what I've read in the Atrix forum it's relatively easy to hard brick it and **** your phone. But most problems with the Inspire can be easily solved. And the camera is pretty awesome too!

You could be an awesome son and snag her a sensation from Canada (bell). Great pics, full hd video @30+ fps.

Of course the inspire is a great phone as well, but if using an upgrade is your plan, I would buy a phone second hand right now and hold on to the upgrade for an ip5 to sell when they come out.
