V9 is rock solid for me. I'm not sure how it could be taken any further for a stock rom, at least with this base. Thanks for the great work. I know greater things are coming. Hold on to your hat guys.
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Well hopefully me and the guys can get the 3.5 release as good if not better than this release...we have been slaving over it...initial feedback from testers on 3.5 build...

Solid and smooth

Good memory management and quadrant higher than v9

GPS and Data solid

More to come as it comes back to me....

Cant boot into CWM after flashing this ROM

Hi

I am new to rooting on the Inspire but have been crackflashing my Dinc for the last year.

I bought an Inspire 4g for my wife that was rooted and unlocked running CM7. She likes sense a lot better than AOSP so I chose this ROM to let her try out. The ROM is fantastic, very fast and very stable.

However, now when I try to boot into recovery, either through power menu or ROM Manager, I get the HTC triangle with the exclamation mark. I can boot into HBOOT, but even going to recovery from there gets same response.

It looks like the phone was rooted with Ace Hack Kit

Details from Hboot:

ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

HBOOT-0.85.0024

MICROP-0438

RADIO-26.10.04.03_m

eMMC-boot

Apr 12, 2011, 00:55:45

Also, I do not have a SIM card installed as this is a xmas gift for her and I am just trying to set it up before then.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Its all there on the front page...hehe...:p

WC

Instruction for v5.0 onward users

5.0 & above uses AT&T recovery to display battery charging animation while the device is OFF. In order to flash another ROM, run ROM Manager & install / flash latest CWM

If you flash the cwm from rom manager you will loose the animation charging when phone is off....
[HTC Inspire 4G] jimmyUT:
FIXED!

Had to flash CWM 2 times through ROM manager... Must have not taken the first time I tried...

FASTEST DEV RESPONSE EVER :)

Thanks for all your hard work!
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Very welcome....glad you got it resolved....if its for your wife(and you dont want to hear about it)...Id probably leave it as is lol.....,be careful with trying to mod it as it may screw it up more than make it look all pretty ....lol...just my opinion...what do i know im not married...lol

Removed due to finding the obvious answer by myself ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
Been rocking the 3.5 test rom for the last 3days and have found it to be as solid as v9. Smooth and fast. Everything works and not a single fc. I had my doubts about getting 3.5 this stable on an Inspire, but Wild Child has changed my thinking with that. Another good thing, it doesn't kill the battery. The delay, I believe, has been implementing some AT&T goodness. I will post more in-depth once it is released in it's own thread. I am last in line of the testers, so it should be released real soon.
[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
I've also noticed very good battery life from the 3.5 ROM (been running for 5 or 6 days). It's running amazing. Everything is so responsive and just works. No force closes, no reboots, no lock ups, memory seems to be managed perfectly. Very nice WC

For reference purposes - I'm at ~92hrs up time and still not experiencing any lag, FCs, or reboots:
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Glad to hear its running well ,theres another beta to give a run....will send links when i talk to you....Update on this rom is v10 is ready as ext 4....will upload in the morning am exhausted....

[HTC Inspire 4G] Egrier:
I've just flashed this rom this morning and LOVE it!! Good job fellas!! One thing though, I installed CWM so I could put a % battery mod on it. Is there a way to get the AT&T recovery back without flashing the whole rom again?

Thanks!!
[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
WC might be able to suggest an easier method - but you should be able to do it this way -

If you are ENG S-off, open the ROM .zip and navigate to \additions\. Here you'll see recovery.img. Copy this file to the same location you have fastboot on your computer (probably \sdk\tools). Open a command prompt from this location (Shift + Right click from within \sdk\tools, "Open Command Window Here"). Now issue the following command

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

You should be notified that the flash was successful.

If you are not ENG S-Off (or if you are but don't feel like going through the "hassle"), rename the attached PD98IMG(Stock Recovery).zip to PD98IMG.zip and copy it to the root of your SD, boot to bootloader, and let it do it's thing.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Egrier:
Thanks for the answer. I flashed the PD98IMG file but I'm not sure if it took. (I did it the "non-hassle" way ;)) It said it was successful but when I power down the phone and plug in the charger I don't get the charging animation.
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Fast boot needs to be off....if this is not turned off there is no animation
[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
I've flashed back to custom recovery at this point. I'm reflashing the PD98IMG stock recovery I posted now to test again, but it was definitely working for me when I tested the first time.

Also - you didn't try to flash that through Recovery did you? It needs to be flashed in Bootloader

Results:

Before flashing stock I was using CWM and I had no charge animation. Flashed PD98IMG.zip in bootloader, rebooted, powered off, plugged in, there's a charge animation.

Fastboot is checked and I still get the charging animation? I removed the check, powered down, got the charging animation. Rebooted, Turned fast boot back on, powered down, still got charging animation
[HTC Inspire 4G] Egrier:
Hmm, WC's suggestion worked after I turned off fastboot. I'll try it and see if I get the animation after turning fastboot back on....

Edit: I get NO animation with Fastboot checked. Unchecked I get animation. Weird :confused:
[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
Ha very weird. I bet it was something strange that happened on mine when a setting got restored. Either way glad it's working.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jerry0000:
Hi WC,

Does the 8.0 and 9.0 on the first page wipes out the phone or not? There is no specific mentioning like the other builds do. I have two phones, one on 7.0 and one on 7.0a, and thinking of upgrading. If 9.0 does not wipe out the phone, it will be much easier for me to upgrade.

Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] PakRatt:
I would do a full wipe, but you can just wipe Dalvic & cache then flash.

Just an FYI. v10 is going to be done and uploaded vary soon and it's ext4

compatible so you'll have to do a FULL wipe on that one.
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
they all do a wipe now, saves for less problems and better stability....

---------- Post added at 10:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 PM ----------

Hopefully if all goes smoothly they will be released....

[HTC Inspire 4G] bigcountry:
I am having an issue that my phone will try to find my location and keeps kicking me to a screen about my location. V9

Even when I go to dail my phone it wants me to find my loaction

I have tried turning the mobile network on/off, wifi on/off and gps on/off and the only thing that will fix it is reinstalling the rom and wiping everything.

Any ideas???

And by the way I love this ROM
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
hasnt been reported and i have never experienced this myself on the rom,runs flawless for me....if during setup you didnt opt out of google location services,thats the only thing i can think of or maybe something youve installed...i noticed youve had issues with this phone not working correctly before with original at&t rom.....unsure what to tell you on this one besides what I have suggested....

WC
[HTC Inspire 4G] mindfrost82:
I don't think its ROM related, but at first I had the At&t Mark The Spot app installed and I noticed EVERY time I turned the screen on that the GPS icon was up there trying to find my location. Of course this was draining the battery too.

At first I didn't know what it was, but one-by-one, I went through with a task killer and killed all running services until I got to that one. As soon as I stopped it, the GPS icon went away.

So even if its not that app, that might be one way you can try to figure out what it is that's causing it.

I've been running v9 for a while now and haven't had that issue at all.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Egrier:
Would the Beats Audio mod by Lyapota work on this rom? I wanted to ask here before I broke something. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Try at own risk...its really not worth the hassle@beats mod....the sound isnt nocibly different actually...sense 3.5 rom we are doing will be released with it.

WC
[HTC Inspire 4G] Egrier:
I'll just leave it alone then. Thanks!

This baby has been purring like a kitten. Really enjoying this ROM. Hats off to you guys for doing such fine work.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fshami:
Beats audio works well on DHD version of this ROM i.e v10.0..
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
This isnt the same rom as your dhd build....this is why I stated use caution;)

WC
[HTC Inspire 4G] Egrier:
Do you have a quick fix for the contact pictures disappearing in SMS? I have Facebook for HTC Sense syncing my contacts. It was working fine. Not sure what happened.
[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
WC's 3.5 v2.0RC pics :D

Running excellent by the way...

Strongly recommend when he shares!
[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
Try this -

Open the facebook app and go to your Friends list. Let the list completely poplulate (pictures and all). Now go to Settings ->Accounts&Sync. Click on your Facebook account and then "Sync Now". Any luck?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Egrier:
Nope, didn't work. :mad: Some of my contacts in the SMS app have the picture others don't. If I look in the People app, then everything is fine there. It's just the SMS app that's throwing a fit.
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
First question, because you seem to be wanting to or changing some things in the rom,what have you messed with? has to be a reason why it was working one minute then not the next....its not going to just stop working for no reason....Secondly you can try to clear data app etc in the facebook app and see if it will repopulate the contacts list....This hasnt been reported by anyone and im sure its probably in use by everyone@facebook....I dont personally use the app or the site...

WC

WC
[HTC Inspire 4G] Egrier:
The only thing that I've done to it other than flashing it was put on the % battery indicator. Nothing more.
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Only thing i can suggest is clearing data/app information from application....and resetting up sync and account...its the facebook app...it just sucks....if not mistaken....the app has an update on market

WC
[HTC Inspire 4G] Egrier:
Well, I ended up looking around on Google and I think it is all fixed now. It is something to do with ROM Manager, Titanium Backup or CWM that messes with the permissions to your contacts. The fix was to install Terminal Emulator and put in:

su

chmod 666 /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/files/*

then reboot. Like I said, it seems to be working now. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] PakRatt:
Now here is a perfect example of a good member. Cheers to you for not only

that you did some searching, but you also let us know what it was & the fix.

PS. Just a FYI... v10 is going to be better then sliced bread. ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Egrier:
Thanks for the compliment, PakRatt....Can't wait to try out v10. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Will include for good measure in v10....as soon as more reports come in from these two upcoming releases if alls good will be some scorchers being released....:p:cool:

[HTC Inspire 4G] Egrier:
Sorry not sure what gtalk is.

Oh, by the way. I seem to be having issues with the proximity sensor on this rom and another that I've tried out. During a phone call, the screen won't shut off. There was an app that I found on the Desire HD forums called DHD Proximity Recalibrator that worked ok but I wasn't sure how to set it up properly. It would be nice for it to work as it should without having to use an app. I don't know, maybe it's a know bug.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mindfrost82:
GTalk is Google Talk.

No problems with the proximity sensor here.
[HTC Inspire 4G] PakRatt:

however I am a bit anxious. I am going on a 2 weeks trip next week. should I flash this new bad boy that will be unleashed soon, or should I wait till back from the trip?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Egrier:
Heck, you may as well flash the new build once WC releases it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] PakRatt:
You definitely need to flash v10.!

Don't pass go, don't collect 2oo. dollers. Just flash...:p

when will this be released? I have not seen it on the first post yet. May be I can ask WC directly?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Egrier:

v10 must be on crack or something... super fast, very stable

GPS locks are almost instant.

This one is definitely a keeper!

btw, the advanced battery menu is included, right?

[HTC Inspire 4G] jerry0000:
Just flashed.

flashed CWM, then wiped /data, wiped /cache.

Installed ZIP ...

All went well....

Question:

How do I check which version of WC build do I have from the phone? aside from the fact that I just flashed the latest build?

Edit:

I guess it is under "more" of software info ... it says #10 in the end ...

LOL

;)

[HTC Inspire 4G] Egrier:
How are you liking it so far Jerry?
[HTC Inspire 4G] lloydkant:
i just flash the v9 like 2 days ago.... is a necesary and mandatory update to get more stable software??
[HTC Inspire 4G] jerry0000:
may be I was spoiled by 7.0 already, so I was not able to tell too much speed differentce, both in the sense of phone running, and speedtest.net download speed.

However I did have one small issue. As I said I wiped /data and /cache, and flashed v10. After flash, all my apps are re-installed from google account automatically. very few missing, only one I notice is ES file explorer did not get auto re-installed.

Now, the issue. Some apps are installed to the SD card, which I never did before. So I tried to move back to the internal storage. I was told not enough storage. but I still have like 800+ mb left... so I uninstall and reinstall ... same error.

With those on the SD card uninstalled, I rebooted the phone, and that seems to fixed the problem. I am not sure if anybody else has seen this.

Now, I did from 7.0 to 10.0 directly. And for 7.0, that was my first root and flash. And I did not wipe /data and /cache specifically. FWIW, that is the full disclosure.

All said, I am happy with ROM. Tether works beautifully, which is important to me. :)

Now, I have another question about mapping.

Before rooting and use WC's rom, I was on Froyo (he helped me downgrade after my accidental OTA upgrade).

I did not remember HTC location to be the default mapping app at that time. Now with 7.0 and 10.0, seems HTC Location to be the default program for mapping. For example, select the street address of a contact in the address book (People) brings me directly to Location. There is no choice to use Google Maps.

Now, HTC location is not a bad program, however I understand that I have to pay for get navigation. So I would prefer Google Maps.

I guess I can uninstall Location to force the system to use Google Maps??? However I kind of want to keep Location for offline, dummy maps.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Jerry

How? Uninstall is not an option from the "manage applications"

Use Root Explorer to delete the apk file???

Also, encountered another problem: the most recent Superuser app can not be updated. says signature error. Not sure if it is the app, or incompatible with this build?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Egrier:
I used Titanium Backup to uninstall it. Yeah, I know what you mean about the superuser app. I guess I'll just leave it.

If you restored from Titanium Backup, you need to clear data for the Market and Superuser.

[HTC Inspire 4G] PakRatt:
A word for the wise...

You should never ever do (batch restore) after

Rom install. Some data for user apk.s is ok to

restore IF it's not data or sys. related. One mistake and all the work on the tweaks are

mote. So be diligent with your restoring of apk's.
[HTC Inspire 4G] whiteman0vette:
No over clock on v10 right ?
[HTC Inspire 4G] jerry0000:
that may be true. I usually re-install clean myself. However google did that for me before I even aware of it.

may be I should do a factory reset, then wipe /data /cache and re-install everything?

I kinda of doubt that will do much though. I might try that after the trip. no time to mess around right now. ;)
