Seriously, from day 1 I've heard soo many issues with gps as well.

It's crazy how some Roms just lock soo fast and accurately while on others it doesn't work or if it does its such a large range of accuracy.

Looking forward in trying this Rom out.

Have a taste of it at the very least.

Been sick for a couple days but seem to be ok now...gps depends on the confrig the cook uses for the radio etc.....this one has better reception in my area than even the originals from at&t....with the originals I was getting one bar in my house, now I get 4-5 bars....

WC
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Have new builds for both ext 3 and ext 4 that need to be given a run through....cant test these all myself....anyone interested can send me g-talk name and ill add you to my list....

[HTC Inspire 4G] legend221:
The reception is a lot better for me too. GPS triangulates to 8 meters I'm happy to say. Rom is fast and stable. Totally satisfied, many thanks for the hard work and effort. Continue to make this Rom the best it can be!
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Glad your enjoying it...ive done some nice speed/memory changes in test builds....

Nice! Hope you enjoy it fshami and amazing work here with your Rom and collaboration with WildChild. Keep up the great work and continue updating mates :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] homescrub:
battery life with this has been subpar, with maybe 3 hours minimal use. SetCPU wont let it go past 1ghz, lol.

CWM won't boot into hBoot to flash a radio.

Going back to NinjaROM.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fshami:
Well as for CPU speed, this rom has stock kernel..
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Then you have something wrong@3hrs on battery with minimal usage...lol...I am quite sure this wouldve been reported 4 thousand views ago and 100's of downloads ago....its a stock kernel...your not going to get past maximum cpu:rolleyes:...and obviously you didnt read what this rom has as a recovery:rolleyes:.....enjoy your night.

WC
[HTC Inspire 4G] b3nny:
What kernels would you recommend for this rom?

if you want everythiong to work then none....stock kernel doesnt screw up video playback 720p in landscape mode all other kernels do from what i hasave tried....

I like the rom, especially the great reception, but it is pretty laggy. I did a full wipe and formatted system before install so i dont know what it could be
[HTC Inspire 4G] airlinedev:
Installed the latest version just now... after initial setup, I got the following error: "Application HTC Sense (in process com.htc.launcher) is not responding.
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Have tested against other roms on the forum and it imo is on par for a STOCK kernal,my config runs smooth,fast and I dont have any issues at all.....Please elaborate where you feel the ROM is lagging....Just asking...what are you formatting? When flashing it formats partitions for you...

Regards,

WC

---------- Post added at 01:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:55 AM ----------

DO NOT wipe anything,just flash the rom....if your coming from another rom,then you can wipe cache,which really isnt necessary,because ROM formats all partitions....smh

---------- Post added at 02:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:59 AM ----------

Personal suggestion,use the version that is full version and not skipping the data partition...

[HTC Inspire 4G] dschreiber69:
I got the same error.

I might add that I force closed it and have never seen it again. Not sure if it is an issue or not?
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Anyone who wants the latest build,if you have added me or I have added you to gtalk...I have not been able to replicate this force close,possibly something on your sdcard the rom is trying to read....On another note...ALL ROM's from here out will wipe phone...no need to do anything but download and flash from sdcard...eliviates the I wiped this and that...if you dont know what your wiping and are only going by what you've read, process is not necessary when flashing everytime...;):eek::cool:

Regards,

WC

---------- Post added at 09:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:26 AM ----------

Some suggestions...

1. Charge battery to full before flashing.

2. IF battery is charged to full,wipe battery stats before flashing.

3. READ what recovery this uses and how/why it was used and how to revert for flashing other ROM's.

4. Dont just post "ROM is lagging/slow/blah blah without an explaination as to what/how to what extreme.

5. I use these builds completely as is,no mod's whatsoever...and mine runs smooth as silk...so if you having issues...look through your modifications your installing and backtrack to see what may or may not be causing the problem.

6. This is a stock kernel,overclocking WILL NOT work with this ROM, so if thats your thing move on to the next one.

7. And lastly for now...This was made for those who want the "made by at&t feel" we have done our best to provide that...its not shiney,its not glamorous...but it runs as it should...

End of Rant...

Installing this Rom

Hi WC,

I have an Inspire with the latest AT&T Gingerbread rom and it is rooted with S-Off. I am a little confused about how to flash this Rom, I have the latest versions of Rom Manager and CWM loaded on the phone. Can you give me a quick step by step on the installation. I just don't want to scew anything up as I am new to Android phones.

capman231
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Download,save to sdcard,reboot into cwm(recovery)choose install zip from sdcard,scroll down till you highlight the rom,and flash...you will loose everything so back up whatever you need to....sdcard things wont be touched....

WC
[HTC Inspire 4G] capman231:
Thanks WC,

Just to clarify, boot into CWM (Recovery) with the power and volume buttoms or from the phone?

capman231
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
if you have cwm installed and have flashed the latest recovery for your device, you can use cwm to reboot into recovery from the phone...

WC
[HTC Inspire 4G] capman231:
Thanks WC

Thats what I thought but just wanted to be sure. Still got a lot to learn about these Android Phones.

Thanks for your help.

Heres memory on the latest ive been running for the past week...never gets below 200mb free....

WC
[HTC Inspire 4G] haroldgv:
Hi All,

I offered myself to help on the testing of any new features on my Inspire. Wild Child gave me his latest rom on Saturday night. First impressions so far:

- Rom is quite stable and quick. As detailed in the previous screenshot, I had around 250 MB of free memory. This didn't seem normal to me so after installing some battery mods, some apps and games such as Swype, Skype, setting my facebook, twitter accounts and others I realized it was true.

- My email and calendar widgets for the corporate Exchange from work are pretty packed and I just noticed little bit of lag when switching to those on home screen. Not happy with it I loaded other 2 roms. My surprise: it loaded faster on this one

- 720p video plays great on portrait and landscape. No weird lag

- Battery life seems to be normal. Due to I sync my email quite often it takes a lot of battery, but it lasted the whole day. I charged my phone overnight and then it lasted the whole next day, including some phone calls (around 7 each day on Sunday and today). I would like to test the battery without the email sync and see how it goes

- So far it looks it's the best Sense 3.0 stock experience. I'' try to challenge it and compare, but it's pretty solid, stable and of course fast
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
OK guys I am ready finally to take the leap from my Juicy 2.52 ROM. I have to say Juicy's ROM has been 99% flawless and I have much installed on it. But lately it seems to be getting worse when browsing the internet the phone wants to reboot out of nowhere. At least I think this is a ROM issue. And that is the ONLY issue I have had with it. I have heard of other 2.1 Sense ROMs doing the same thing. Any signs of this issue using your ROM?
[HTC Inspire 4G] dschreiber69:
Nope.

This is not a sense 2.1

It is 3.0
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
New builds are finalized....has been uploaded (links have not been changed yet on first post), all force close issues fixed....Should be a good combination of good speed,good memory,good gps and completely stock kernel....Have also reworked a 1.84 based 2.2.1 rom,thats amazing...but its old and not wanted much anymore....but i use it also because its flawless...thiose who helped test will get first download....links will be sent out....

Regards,

WC
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
For those interested,I may release the 2.2.1 184 ROM....on it now on one of my devices,runs beautifully....we will see later this evening....lol..havent decided as of yet.....

[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
Yes I know that this is a Sense 3.0 ROM. Was just curious if that bug still existed on the Sense 3.0 ROM. Guessing not. :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] dschreiber69:
Sure thing.

I have never experienced any problems actually. It is a very stable ROM. I am pretty sure that you won't be disappointed.

Version 7

Hi Fellows,

Does this Rom remove all of the old data and caches when it installs or do I need to do it before flashing this ROM?

I will be coming from the AT&T 2.3.3 GB OTA update if that makes any difference.

capman231
[HTC Inspire 4G] dschreiber69:
Yes, when flashed it will wipe everything!

Best practice is to charge to 100% - reboot into recovery - wipe battery stats - flash your new ROM.
[HTC Inspire 4G] capman231:
Thanks, I hadn't thought about the battery stats. Are you running V7? Any problems?
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Im running this build myself since before it was released..no problems whatsoever:p,everything works as it should....

WC
[HTC Inspire 4G] dschreiber69:
Actually I am running V6 :rolleyes:

It works so well, I have not found a reason to wipe everything and start over. I am sure I will one of these days ;)

Sense 3.0 Lock Screen In V7

Can some one tell me which lock screen this has, or maybe post a screen shot?

capman231
[HTC Inspire 4G] guido3300:
This is a pure stock Sense 3.0 ROM so if you want to know which lockscreen it has I recommend you to watch some Sense 3.0 video on YouTube
[HTC Inspire 4G] dschreiber69:
It uses the sense 3.0 lockscreen
[HTC Inspire 4G] dschreiber69:
Anyone know how to keep htc locations from launching when selecting an address from the calendar? I hate that app. Would like it to launch google maps instead.
[HTC Inspire 4G] capman231:
Thanks, didn't think about watching You Tube. I have been watching the reviews on the new Vivid and saw a circle lock screen that I don't remember seeing before.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
Go into manage applications. Locate locations and select app. Scroll down and select clear defaults. Next time you select adress you should be prompted with a choice and an option to make that choice the default.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dschreiber69:
That is what I thought, but when I go there the icon is blanked out and says there are no defaults set???
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
May be releasing an even more responsive update...testing for past couple days...its impressive.....

WC
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
Try it on your calendar then.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jerry0000:
I flashed 7.0. Works fine, however the H+ sign is gone. Any help?

Edit 1: Also, I created an APN with these settings:

Name: MEdia Net

APN: Phone

MMS protocol: WAP 2.0

MCC: 310

MNC: 410

reboot using the above APN, no H+ sign either.

Edit 2: seems like I have to turn off wi-fi to get the H+ sign. It is in the same place as the wi-fi now, rather than on top of the signal bar as previously in Stock.

Question:

Should I use the APN setting as above, or the one in v7.0 as wap.cingular?
[HTC Inspire 4G] dschreiber69:
No defaults set there either???

Am I the only one experiencing this?

I tried using Ti to remove locations but I bootlooped myself :-\
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
There has to be one of them that is holding a defult. Calendar widget, google maps, htc car panel etc... I would just check everything related to either of these programs and check if any have defaults. Too bad there isn't a clear all defaults option.
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
This is normal it uses wifi instead of your data connection when both are on...theres no reason to set up another apn on this rom...works fione outta the box for everything internet related....

---------- Post added at 08:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:24 PM ----------

Does this update wipe the phone?
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
yes all mine do but this one restored all my settings etc....all thats needed charge 100% wipe battery stats and flash...

WC
[HTC Inspire 4G] jerry0000:
When on 1.84, the H+ sign was on top of the signal bar, not in the wi-fi location. I am not sure the stock GB, as I only used a day and downgraded, so no memory. Any way, I figured it out in your ROM the H+ sign is in the same location as the wi-fi icon.

For APN "Phone" - that was from the tethering hack - it is the unrestricted version of the stock APN for 1.84. And 1.84 has two APNs, the one as I mentioned (that is simply use "Phone" as APN name), and the other one same/similar to the one in your ROM. That is why I was wondering.

It all works, as you said. So no worries. Thank you, WC!

---------- Post added at 08:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:12 PM ----------

So flashing this one will keep all my apps and setting? Just flashed 7.0, and not ready to re-install/set up everything anew yet.

BTW, I am getting much better signal after flashing your ROM. Thanks! I will be testing for a week to see if this sticks and decide if I want to flash another Inspire handset.

Thanks, WC!
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Cannot promise itll restore what youve downloaded and installed@all apps...i dont download much on the rom and my "settings" were pretty much all restored...titanium back up works well for this as needed.

I dont suggest using hacks from an older rom, wifi tethering is available in the rom,and you may screw more up than trying to fix by doing so...just my opinion...everything is tweaked to the max on this rom, signal, memory, battery and responsiveness...

I flashed this coming from V7 without any problems , but now my Rom Manager won't boot into recovery. First shows two green arrows in a circle with another arrow through them then a red triangle with an exclamation point and the only way to get out of this is to pull the battery. Running the latest version of the manager and recovery and it has worked with version 7 fine. I flashed it twice today just to be sure I had a good install when my GPS didn't work with the first install, and as a note, the GPS hasn't worked with V7 or V7a.

I haven't never saw this before, got any Ideas?

capman231
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
This is mentioned in the op. It flashes your recovery to att recovery so you can see battery charging icon while phone is off and charging. You need to flash recovery through Rom manager to access recovery again.
[HTC Inspire 4G] capman231:
Thanks for the thought Gizmoe, but this is recovery through Rom Manager.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
Wasn't a thought buddy. Flash your recovery back via Rom manager. Do you even know what your doing?
[HTC Inspire 4G] capman231:
Gizmoe that's where the problem is, when I try to get into recovery from Rom Manager is when this problem happens.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
I know..

I'm not telling you to enter recovery because you can't until you flash over the att recovery that is currently on your phone. That's why you can not enter recovery. Do you know how to flash your version of recovery? It's a function in Rom manager.
[HTC Inspire 4G] capman231:
Yes Gizmoe I finally realized what you where trying to tell me. I'm brain dead, it's

4:30 and I am going to bed. Thanks for your help, I'll fix it after I get some sleep.

Thanks again!
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
GPS works fine...I dont know what you are installing or trying to tweak...first lock takes a bit then it is fine after that....as far as recovery....big bold letters as to why and how the recovery was done on this rom....after thinking about it and your p.m....quit trying to change whats already been patched in the rom...its been updated to the latest out there and then some....if your patching the wrong thing it will screw up the rom...I think this is whats happening actually...
[HTC Inspire 4G] capman231:
I wasn't patching or tweaking anything in V7a, I installed the radio from the OTA gingerbread update and when I tried to flash the matching RIL is when I had the problem. I had done the same thing in V7 and after I put the OTA Gingerbread Radio and RIL in V7 the GPS worked fine, just like it did in the OTA update. I am not sure what happened but after I reflashed recovery and installed the RIL the GPS is working as good as it did in the OTA update, with accuracy to about 10 Meters.

capman231
[HTC Inspire 4G] mindfrost82:
GPS worked good here on v7.

Flashing 7a now but I won't be able to test it until this afternoon.
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Well that would be patching...hehehe....for myself this combo@ril and radio is working the best for me in my area....testing on everyday usage on a couple devices....where I used to get 1 bar or no recedption Im now getting 4-5 constantly....I will assume it will varie on you location and how many towers etc you have around your area....but glad you got it sorted....

WC
[HTC Inspire 4G] jerry0000:
gotcha, thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] capman231:
WC, I want to apoligize for all of the aggarvation over this ROM and the GPS not working right. I went out to the AT&T store to pick up my Vivid and I asked the the lady that was doing the paper work if they had a tech that could check the GPS on my Inspire as it wasn't working like it used to (I had put the stock ROM back on it) and she said she would fix it after she finished the paperwork. She took the phone and turned the GPS on and it never got a lock like it was doing with me and after about 3 Minutes she pulled a plastic bag out of her desk that had both of the slide on plastic covers in it and took out the big one for the bottom of the phone and put it on. Turned the phone back on and with in 10 seconds it had locked on to 6 sat's in side of the store. She went ahead and put the new side cover on it to as it has an antenna in it also. The big cover has two fingers that connect to the phone when it's on the phone and she showed me with a magnifing glass that the mount for one of the fingers was broke and it could move around. If it moved in the right direction the GPS would work and if it moved the other way ther was no antenna on the GPS.

When I got home I put V7a back on the phone and it is running great. The phone is laying here on the desk with 11 Sat's showing in GPS check with an accuracy of 18 Ft.

This is one fast smooth ROM, thank you for all of you work and sorry for all of the trouble!

capman231
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
Freaking sweet. It just works. I do have a couple of questions.

1) Sorry if this has been asked before. I didn't read all the way back because the versions have changed so quickly I didn't know if an older reply would still be valid. Is this rom supported in the Kitchen?

2) It doesn't appear this rom has a name. If I wanted to name the rom I am running to someone, what would I call it?
[HTC Inspire 4G] dschreiber69:
It is not in the kitchen list if that is what you mean. You can upload the framework and etc.

The name is GB Sense 3.0i
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
I see now. Nothing fancy with the name, just like the rom was handled. Just stock 2.3.5 with sense 3 that runs and looks like it was made for the Inspire. So far awesome data speeds, excellent GPS functionality, and no issues with wifi. I was hoping someone had already done some mods in the kitchen to confirm success.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dschreiber69:
I have done mods, mainly battery mods. No issues.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
Excellent. That is mainly what I want, notification bar mods. Thanks.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mindfrost82:
I had Sense lock up on me once after flashing this, but it was after I installed all my apps.

Everything has been running great since then. Only mod I did was the Battery% and changed the RIL to one that has worked good for me.

Yesterday was overcast and while outside in my truck, I locked on to 8-11 sats (it fluctuated between those numbers) and got 2-5m accuracy.

My download speeds have been good too for my area. I got about 5mbps down and 1.5mbps up yesterday, with full bars of H+.

Using the ROM feels smoother than the previous versions. There's no lag when switching screens, opening an app, or pulling down the notification drawer.

FYI - I'm using v7.0a from here.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
I had it lock up on me once after flashing. I rebooted and haven't had it happen again. Did you flash the battery mod that is provided in the first post? What does it look like if you did?
[HTC Inspire 4G] mindfrost82:
Yeah, I'm using the one in the first post. Its the standard green battery with the % in white over it.

As the battery drains, the green will turn to yellow and red like usual.
