Well when I left it overnight off charger, it was dead as a doornail next morning... I really don't know what else to do. Gonna flash back to stock and take the old girl in. See what att has to say about it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rasroygbiv:
Just call 800-801-1101. That's the warranty exchange number. But still flash back to stock first. They will try to troubleshoot over the phone and if you aren't on stock firmware, they will void the warranty.

I just attempted to update absotools. The app went back to the home screen and absorools has disappeared entirely. No longer even in the applications list.

Is there a flashable version or apk for the newest version on abso3.0?

Downloaded and flashed the zip in recovery with no luck. The app just doesn't appear anymore anywhere. Any suggestions? All indications were that it installed ok according to the status in recovery.

Sorry Ras. I see the app, but it is the old modtools version that came with abso1.5.

Same problem here. Ran an update check on tools, and completely lost the tool. Downloaded from the general app, flashed and got the older tools with a different widget. Instead of Rhonda, got one that looks like a gps sat, the phone, and a battery

[HTC Inspire 4G] ladiesgod:
I've experienced this behavior with the last two releases. I always do a full wipe. With the most recent version I even tried restoring back to stock using attn1's tool. Then I did a full wipe, and cleared devlik cache...the whole 9, following the flash instructions exactly before flashing the ROM.

I'm not a noob at flashing, and I know the full correct procedure. This has just been happening lately with this ROM and is very weird.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ashies7:
Never any reason to go back to stock on this phone. Try formatting system then factory reset. could be bad flashes. How are you getting the ROM to your sd card?
[HTC Inspire 4G] gio22:
Besides a possible bad flash, how is the rom flash file downloaded and put on the phone? If downloaded direct, file may not have downloaded correctly or SD card might have issues. If downloaded to computer first, add potential bad USB cable, faulty USB port on either the computer or phone or faulty computer hard drive. Many possibilities.

Also you just might have a version of the phone internal hardware that has a compatibility issue. I'm not aware of this being a known issue, just throwing it out there.
[HTC Inspire 4G] sphuyal:
Oh! man...........it is really pain in the @ss to learn modifying apks on your own (at least without any knowledge on xml n blah blah blah). I managed to get something like this n i m settling for a while now...

flashing the new rom

I am on 3.0 and am wanting to flash the new update.

Do i have to wipe my phone again or can i flash over the 3.0 and save all my settings?

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] rasroygbiv:
That should be fine to do, the only possible issue might be ram usage, as the .apks won't be zipalligned, but I doubt it will be noticeable.

My phone has received Absolution...Has yours?
[HTC Inspire 4G] rasroygbiv:
The ROM is set to wipe system, so you can probably wipe cache and dalvik and flash over top. Just understand if you do and run into problems, you will need to flash with a full wipe before you will get much help from the team. Really a judgment call... ;)

My phone has received Absolution...Has yours?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Chevyguy85:
Is there a list somewhere of what I can delete from the /system/app folder of the rom zip before installing? I always end up uninstalling a bunch of stuff I never use nor have any intention of using (stuff that probably 75% of other users use). I think I played around and deleted some apks from there but I might have gone too far because I was getting errors and other stuff after flashing my trimmed down rom.
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
You want it trimmed down even more???? Wow and I thought we were very lean here! :) I always wait to delete anything until after I flash just to make sure I start off with a fresh fully operation rom, then delete things as I go. Alot less risk IMO. As far as your question...maybe ras could step in...

Edit.....meant to ask, what type of things do you not use that you like to remove?

I got your 10 char right here
[HTC Inspire 4G] sledboy:
thank you.

i will wait till this weekend then and do a full wipe and just rebuild my folders and such.

again thanks for your time.
[HTC Inspire 4G] sphuyal:
Well I can tell you (opposed to what cwhitney24 said, you might want to follow that :p) that removing some unnecessary apps (or the ones you ll never use) from system/app has never given me any trouble. And i am talking about flashing different ROMs in different devices ;). I always remove every single apk for live wallpapers, FM, Genie widget, Protips, VoiceDialer, TTs, Quicksearch box, PicoTTs (i remove what i don't use, it can be that you have use for them :D).

EDIT: Since i finished flashing 3.1 some hours ago, what apks i removed prior to flashing is still fresh in my mind n i m listing them down here

1. CarHomeGoogle.apk (because i don't own a car atm so have no use for it :D)
2. CMStats.apk
3. CMUpdateNotify.apk
4. Titanium Backup (com.kerami...blah blah blah.apk)
5. FM.apk, Geniewidget.apk
6. GoogleFeedback.apk, GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk, Talk.apk
7. LiveWallpapers.apk, LiveWallpapersPicker.apk, MagicSmokeWallpapers.apk
8. PicoTts.apk, Protips.apk, Tts.apk, Voicedialer.apk
9. ThemeChooser.apk, Thememanager.apk, VisualizationWallpapers.apk

But like cwhitney24 said, this is really a very light weight rom and you are just fine leaving everything just like that.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Pick_A_Name:
That helped. Thanks! It takes away the 80's TV on/off because it's too fast, but it helps speed up the long animations. Great ROM. Props to the Collective!

Hey Tx, the only thing that looked off in the logcat was that current widget went haywire right before your GPS took a dump. But current widget doesn't use GPS...

I download to PC first. Then I move it to my sd card. I install from there. This doesn't happen right away. Maybe after about a week or two of use I notice it. It just starts pressing buttons, menus, on it's own. I've switched to another ROM to see if the same happens there. It's really weird, but in any case I'll go back after the next update and if I experience the same poltergeist type issues I will record it on video so no one thinks I'm crazy lol.
[HTC Inspire 4G] sphuyal:
Read this!!

So I am back to dpi again....Since i enjoy 200 dpi so much, i gave it a shot today as well. I went to the market and checked if the apps like ES explorer, root explorer (including others) would list as "apps not compatible error". But i found out that they were not!!!

So if you do not do the "branding" thing (instead DHD owners can just edit build.prop and change model name to desire hd), you can enjoy 200 dpi and NOT get the "apps not compatible error".

Let me know if i can post this into DHD forum

[HTC Inspire 4G] gio22:

[HTC Inspire 4G] Chevyguy85:
I had this problem as well and reflashed a couple times and still had the problem. I then formatted system, cleared cache, cleared dalvik, factory reset and then flashed the rom and the problem was solved. I use 200 dpi and have not had to edit a build prop or change branding over to desire instead of inspire.

---------- Post added at 09:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 AM ----------

That list pretty much sums up a lot of what I delete/uninstall once the rom is flashed. There are a few variations but as I've already deleted/uninstalled after flashing I couldn't tell you exactly what I get rid of. Maybe if I remember when I flash up to 3.1 I'll make out a list.

Oddly enough I actually use my phone for basic things like umm phone calls (very rarely)and texting (about 95% of my communication via phone). Everyone seems to use their phone for everything else as well so it's not that the rom isn't slimmed down already, it's just too fat for this fat minimal user is all :) Plus I hate having icons in the app drawer for stuff I never use.

I don't play music on my phone I have a radio to do that for me and I hate having headphones in my ears because it cuts out the surrounding world and I like being aware of my conditions instead of walking around oblivious to what is happening around me. I don't need a search box I have a web browser that opens up to google so why have something else that does it for me. Also my home screen is minimal so search box doesn't even get placed on a card thus making it of no use to me for that reason as well. Don't need car home...and the list goes on I can elaborate on the other things as well but to sum it up I just don't need/want/nor have use for the things I delete/uninstall.
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
I personally use a few of those apps on the list. Some I don't but for those that do use those apps it wouldn't be fair in my opinion to remove them. Some people like to use their devices more for media etc than for a phone. Look at your average teenager. You never see them talking they are typically burning up the airwaves texting like mad. We do remove what we consider bloat so I am sure this rom will lose a little more weight, especially now that I will have more of a hand in it. I would like to get it down to less than 100mb just like I did with BBMod. Enjoy the rom!
[HTC Inspire 4G] rasroygbiv:
Ahhh, the beauty of Android... Customization. :D I use my phone more for media than I do actually ever talking. Chatting with the team and users in the chat, XDA, text messages, etc, all with a Bluetooth in my ear playing music or podcasts is my day to day. I do think we will be slimming down Abso a bit, but the apps that will have us having to answer pm's about being gone and the like concerns me a bit. We will discuss the best options and be sure to deliver the best experience possible to users across the board. The next chapter of Absolution, should be an exciting one! :D:p:rolleyes::):eek:

I know how to flash a radio and I know, where to get the recommended radio BUT I always read about RILs - I only know it has something to do with the radio. On ARHD they've been installed while flashing the rom.

Will this rom install those RILs itself or do I need to do that? (If I have to do it, could somebody give me a little instruction on how to do it?)

Thanks ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
The recomended RIL's are included in the roms.

I got your 10 char right here
[HTC Inspire 4G] l33ch0r:
Thanks.

And my last question:

I downloaded the radio from this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1106324) - but I'm kind of confused because of the filename PD98IMG.zip - do I just need to unpack the radio.img (of course check checksum) and flash it?

And why is the given checksum a match with the hole archive and not just with the radio.img?
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
The install instructions are in the op of that thread there. They are supposed to be named that. That is what hboot looks for when flashing something in it (must be placed on root of SD card). You must boot into hboot, not recovery. Follow the prompts that cone up on the screen. But first go back and please read the op of that radio thread.

Ummmm....which radio are you using and which are you wanting to use?

I got your 10 char right here
[HTC Inspire 4G] l33ch0r:
I was used to flash radios different than that, but I might wanna do it like instructed.

Currently I'm using 12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M on Android Revolution HD and later today I wanna flash Absolution and the recommended radio 12.56.60.25_26.10.04.03_M

Or is it possible to flash the radio like I always did? (That would be with fastboot)

If you want to wait til I get home around 6 tonight, I'll send you a link of for my dropbox download for radio 10.04.03. This way all you have to do is put it on your sdcard as is, since I renamed it PD98IMG.zip already, and reboot into hboot and then flash from there.

I didn't mean for the team to remove them I was just wanting to know what I could safely take out myself. I know every user is different and why things are there or not there.

Just curious if anyone has run their Inspire on T-Mobile's Unlimited pre-paid plans? I fond the APN settings and realize the 4g support of course if not in the Inspire but if 3g works well and I can save a decent amount of money changing over it is worth it.

[HTC Inspire 4G] rasroygbiv:
Pull your battery, Hold down the down volume button and the power button at the same time. This will boot you into bootloader, select recovery, then flash again. If that doesn't work. Redownload the rom from pc and copy it to root of sd card, then reflash. This is definitely not normal.
