Remember, there's nothing I can do without a logcat log of the issue...and all issues should be directed to the issue tracker.
[HTC Inspire 4G] nj_PeePs:
After flashing BR5, It seems that contact defined ringtones are working, and the contact name appears when the screen comes on. I have updated Issue-91. I just wanted to see if anyone else had noticed, so existz can decide if this should be marked as fixed. :o
[HTC Inspire 4G] Raza Qadri:
How can I get logcat log for business card problem :( newbie here
[HTC Inspire 4G] nj_PeePs:
Use a terminal emulator on your phone and type

su logcat

Or connect your phone to your computer, make sure USB debuging is enabled, and using adb run

adb logcat

To use your computer, you will need the Android SDK which can be found here.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Sucks how overlooked the issue tracker is. The thing is full of information on bugs/bugfixes and the place where your problems can be addressed more effectively. Its helped my users out plenty of times and were not even supported by it :p (for fixes I mean, I don't encourage them to bug existz about a device he doesn't support)

Just finished setting up BR5, so far so good. Thanks for all your hard work Ex and all the other dev's that had a hand in it!!
[HTC Inspire 4G] P00t:
tried disabling then enabling it. didnt fix it.

something must be wrong with mine. or had a bad download but doesnt seem like a bad download. the numbers matches.

didnt install any mod except inspiremod 0.5. did a full wipe before flashing br5.

didnt install any apps that changes the system behavior.

well, ill just reflash it and see if it fixes, if not, ill redownload and flash it again.

If you updated to the newest one from the market it won't work. Uninstall from the market and it will revert back to the previous version.
[HTC Inspire 4G] young440:
I'm pretty sure this is still the old kernel on BR5. He said he's working on 3.0 but won't integrate it until its stable.

I like enthusiasm though

So it sounds like google probably won't do anything about it since they say it's a custom ROM issue.
[HTC Inspire 4G] P00t:
No. Didn't restore anything at all. I never do.

Its all good. Not a big deal. I thought the owner info thing was a bug for many people but guess not, its only me. Its my fault for doing something wrong.

I'll reflash and see if this still occurs.
[HTC Inspire 4G] MikhailM1:
Existz,

Thank you for the updated version of your great rom. Installation went smoothly, as always, everything is working. Sensitivity of the touchscreen appears to have improved on my Desire HD. Thank you once again!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Raza Qadri:
Is it because of YouTube app or rom?
[HTC Inspire 4G] kennypow3rs:
App
[HTC Inspire 4G] indigolemon:
Possibly not. The latest digging shows that OEM ICS builds don't suffer from this problem - so it points to something in the homebrew ROMs out there, but no-one knows exactly what yet.
[HTC Inspire 4G] andalism:
But current OEM builds aren't built from the latest ICS source yet
[HTC Inspire 4G] wrenhal:
So something that has changed in the basic source from 4.0 to now.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kennypow3rs:
BR5 is honestly the best build to date. Wow so smooth!

That is all....
[HTC Inspire 4G] snak3ater:
br5 is the best so far no doubt..been using br4 all this time till now.

@Existz->Thanks for giving us a silky smooth rom

Was running jelly time ROM until br5 was released, loved br4

Edit: br5 is mad smooth bro

I just wish I could get a GPS lock like I could like before linaro code aka BR1.

I've tried every radio still nothing. Maybe its my phone? Seems weird. I get a location in Google maps just fine.
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
I dont think its due to Linaro, we have used Linaro since very early AR builds (since before AR13). But i get a lock in just a few secs with GPS Status, 10 sats.., always have.
[HTC Inspire 4G] RoboWarriorSr:
Does this have the qualcomm binaries? Don't see it in the changelog.
[HTC Inspire 4G] macr0t0r:
Ah, my mistake. I thought he had switched to Kernel 3.0 when he said that it was now incompatible with other kernels. I thought that seemed awfully fast. In any case, thanks for the new update.

Try flashing agps patch via cwm
[HTC Inspire 4G] 9m2bal:
agps patch didn't work for me.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zlmitchell:
Do you think it is my phone then? Maybe I will do a little disassembly And clean the radio.

Thanks exist.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kennypow3rs:
Im sure you've got "try this and try that" but you should get the radio in my screen shot (from the latest att 3.0 inspire update) and download a free app called "fastergps" . I get a lock in less then 5 seconds. Of course after you apply faster gps reboot your phone and turn GPS off then back on. I have faith lol.

Don't use GPS status app fastergps is better....
[HTC Inspire 4G] mehrshadkh:
You Are the best exist..!!! :) It's a long time I,m using your rom but I'd never had a post...!!! Now I'm posting caus your rom and what you had developed is something different..!!! :)

google play

after installing BR5 i can't install any update and i can't download any apps from Google play

Go to settings and then apps, find these apps them try clearing data and cache from both then reboot.

[HTC Inspire 4G] snak3ater:
BR5 is running flawlessly on my DHD..I am facing only one problem though...

Whenever i lock my phone,after some time lock screen just turns on and off on its own.it happens randomly anytime.Noticed this issue when locked my phone and place it on table.i was amazed to see when its screen turned on and then went blank again on its own.wifi was turned off,no txt message came,nothing happened which could wake the phone up.Googled it but this issue seems to be very unique :eek:

PS->Never faced it on previous beta versions.I wonder whats the reason behind it :confused:
[HTC Inspire 4G] fizzy15:
Hi.. previous version i tried, compas in maps doesn't work. Can anyone check it in this new version? Thank in advance.
[HTC Inspire 4G] snak3ater:
ok guys problem solved...A Battery widget was causing this issue which i installed after flashing br5...uninstalled that app and now everything back to normal :victory:
[HTC Inspire 4G] pnoire:
Just curious... which Battery widget?
[HTC Inspire 4G] spooky_ghosty:
Speaking of battery widgets, or addons...is there anything that could show me the battery percentage in the lil battery icon!?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
I might be doing something wrong, but it doesn't seem to work for me either. The pin never changes to an arrow to show which direction I'm facing.

The battery icon on the status bar? That's already included in this ROM.
[HTC Inspire 4G] thachtunganh:
I've just updated to BR5 since 6 hours ago. Now i'm in love with it :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] snak3ater:
"ICS Android Battery by chodak",Downloaded it from market..

Used 'AirPush detector' to detect that App as a culprit.Battery App was containing AirPush ad's..uninstalled it and after that everything is fine now :o

Br5 is really smooth.in terms of smoothness,the difference is so big.I can feel the awsomeness of br5 while scrolling.br4 was great as well but it used to lag a little.btw I am also using v6 supercharger.just wanted to test that script though I really can't tell the difference after being 50% supercharged.rom was already like butter :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] Coblica427:
This post is for everybody having GPS issues after having verified they flashed inspiremod and tried every GPS fix out there (aGPS, fasterfix, etc)

I was like most of you thinking..it has to be the ROM, there's no way there's a hardware/antenna problem! However, today I tried this guide and modified it a little bit to what I thought was more electrically correct than some of the tutorials showing soldering in a piece of wire and it works like a rockstar now like it used to when I first got the phone. For reference, last night I could only get 1 satellite fix and no lock whatsoever. Today after having done this fix and went for a run, my GPS Status looks like the screenshot I attached at the bottom.

Guide:

Tools - need a metal hanger that you slightly bend one of the straight pieces, two small pieces of plastic you can wedge into the antenna door, small flat head screwdriver, cotton swab, and contact cleaner (prefer DeOxit)

Watch this video to see how to open the antenna/flash door: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qm_z65LA8k

Once you've opened the door, spray a little bit of DeOxit onto one end of the cotton swab to make it damp (the chemical is going to do the cleaning, NOT the swab). Clean off the antenna contacts - consists of two spring clips on the board, and two contacts that are on the door you took off. Don't think you need to wipe off excess DeOxit if you got a little too much on, it'll dry on it's own. Additionally, I gently bent the spring clips on the board up just a tiny bit to ensure when I put the door back on they would make good contact yet again against the contacts on the door. DON'T OVER BEND THEM!!! Just make them parallel to the system board. Then put the door back on the phone just as the video shows. Enjoy your revived GPS antenna!

NOTE: I take NO responsibility whatsoever if you break any part of your phone doing this - do this at your own risk. Additionally, make sure you take the battery out before doing this (watch the video please)

NOTE 2: The screenshot is using the default GPS.conf provided by flashing inspiremod.
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Another trick (at least with mine) is that it does not like getting the first lock if wifi is on...so I have to disable wifi, reboot, then use GPS status to get the first lock (first one can take a few min)... then after it gets the first lock you can resume normal use (ie turning wifi on..etc)...But its just something about wifi being on for that first lock (at least with mine anyways) and only after rebooting after turning wifi off.

Then I always get an instant lock, 10/10 sats
[HTC Inspire 4G] Coblica427:
On a side note after my recent success getting my GPS to work again, I discovered MapMyRUN GPS Running has an issue - not sure if it's ROM related or the app, but after installing it I couldn't do anything with it. It'd start up and go to the main screen, but I could never log in to actually start recording a run. May be worth looking into.
[HTC Inspire 4G] nj_PeePs:
GPS and compass are working fine for me too. Another good GPS app is GPS Test, it helped me alot with GPS issues when I was still running stock, and I still use it from time to time.

I remember someone saying earlier in the thread that sometimes the first GPS lock (after flashing) takes a bit longer, and after that, it usually locks with in 10-30 seconds.
[HTC Inspire 4G] RoboWarriorSr:
Spotify doesn't work, any reason why?
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Usually my initial guess is as good as yours...theres nothing I can do (or WILL do) without proper debug logs of the issue... plus all issues need to be directed to issue tracker.
[HTC Inspire 4G] RoboWarriorSr:
Sorry learning how to log cat but all i get is a blank screen no log in or anything. Will submit a log cat later this evening.
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Easiest way to get a log is to do the following...

1) Reboot (this ensures the log isn't full of days worth of useless stuff)

2) After a clean boot, reproduce/trigger the problem

3) Open a terminal emulator and type..

su

logcat > /sdcard/logcat.txt

4) Then post the logcat.txt found on sdcard

Above is the easiest way when you need to log an app crash or whatever it may be, but if the issue triggers a reboot then above is useless (since log is wiped on reboot)..in that case you need to use "adb logcat" from a PC terminal , trigger the issue and then copy then contents of the terminal to pastebin or something.

Also make sure to check the issue tracker, if there is already an open ticket for your problem then just post your logs in that ticket (instead of opening a new duplicate one) .

[HTC Inspire 4G] RoboWarriorSr:
I found the problem, it when ever I use Hugo flashaholic pack. Happens with every ics Rom. I think this should be put out as a warning.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bit1:
Did you do a clean wipe? I'm running this since I needed Bluetooth and jelly bean doesn't have that right now. I use Spotify for my car and works just fine. Also, you didn't flash Gapps did you? I stupidly did that as it was a habit from flashing other ROM's. You just wipe and flash, apps are built into the ROM
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
I can only support how the rom comes stock (ie im unable to support any add-ons, scripts, 3rd party packages, plus any additional kernels, ..etc..etc) basically anything that I didnt package or compile myself. So if theres any issues with 3rd party packages theres not much I can do.
[HTC Inspire 4G] RoboWarriorSr:
Anyway there always seems to be a problem when i use that add on. Especially in ice cream sandwich.

Hi all,

Have done some quick searches through the thread, but ever since upgrading to BR5, i have not been able to stop my exchange 'push mail'. Normally i have it sent to 1 hour updates, but it is still instant. I have even tried turning off data and it continues, even when it then shows in account list, syncing that account is off.

This problem was not experienced on earlier versions.

Has anyone else experienced this?

BTW, Great rom existz, and others!
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Have u verified this happens on a fresh clean install of br5 without any data of any kind restored?
[HTC Inspire 4G] lilotimz:
Hello guys. Just stopping by quickly for a question. Well, two days ago I helped rooted my friend's inspire 4g and flashed your rom over it as I saw that yours was quite popular and active and somewhat recent (Android 4.0.4). The said friend is a female and tends to use social networks a lot ala. twitter, instagram,etc...

Everything about your rom is perfect [she says] except for the fact that she got quite frustrated due to the screen turning black when taking a picture with instagram (sigh...) out in the sun at 100 degree temps.

I've searched and read up that there were instagram issues with the camera but those were many many months ago and there were no recent posts regarding it. So i'm wondering if it has been somewhat fixed or a workaround has been implemented.

Also,this said friend is on the borderline between just getting the "new iphone" whenever that comes out or a htc one X/ GS3 so I'm trying to do my best to keep her on our side for now... :]

Much thanks if someone is kind enough to answer.

*Side note* Nice rom you got there. Quite fast compared to the stock sense the inspire originally has which is quite heavy on the resources from what I can tell! Keep up the good job; I'm counting on you :good:!
[HTC Inspire 4G] v0rt3xtraz:
I gave that a shot, but unfortunately it still won't download images. I'm using BR5, but it seems the only way for it to work is for me to be using BR2. And whenever I type in the same information that was on BR2 into the APN settings on BR5, it still doesn't work.
[HTC Inspire 4G] macr0t0r:
Speaking as someone who maintains his wife's Inspire: giving beta ROMs to a non-tinkerer is only going to make Android look bad. In any case, there are issues with some camera apps because we don't have "official" Ice Cream Sandwich libraries for the camera. It's a bit of hack and homebrew. Until this ROM gets more finalized, I recommend sticking with pure Gingerbread and installing "TalonROM," which is also from existz (the developer on this thread). It's a reliable and speedy workhorse.

http://code.google.com/p/talon-rom/

If you

really

want ICS, then...you probably should've gotten a phone that has official ICS. HTC kind of screwed us over, so I'm grateful that existz has gotten us this far! This is really akin to getting a 2nd Gen iPhone and expecting full SIRI support.

[HTC Inspire 4G] kennypow3rs:
The camera does work with gaystagram (instagram) just go into settings (the app) and uncheck "use advanced camera" and it will work and NOT go black. After using this rom there's NO way I could ever go back to GB I've tried....
[HTC Inspire 4G] WordsworthESP:
Neither could I, but then again, it's a lady friend of his. Considering she mentioned getting a new iPhone, chances are she doesn't really care much as long as everything works and works well.

Kinda like my ex loved music, but she couldn't tell the difference between a 128kbps and a FLAC rip of a track, when I can hear the difference between a v0 and v2 rip. As long as she could hear the music and lyrics, she was happy.

I'm not insinuating that it's a gender thing, it's just an acquired attention to detail, and chances are it was his idea. I did the same thing for my mom's Inspire, but I knew the camera and Facebook were important to her. So I just flashed Gizmoe's new rooted RUU and she loves it.

Sent from my Inspire 4G w/Jellytime
[HTC Inspire 4G] lilotimz:
Thanks guys. I'll tell her that and see if it fixes it for her.

My lady friend is literally a month or two away from her contract ending hence i'm messing with her phone now. She usually wouldn't let me do anything because she's afraid of me breaking her phone by "rooting"...

Anyhow. This rom should suffice her for now until she gets a brand new phone (One x/ GS3). Thanks again for the help. :]

Hi all,

Long time member but my 1st post. Normally i search and find a solution to my problem but this time i think this rom has a bug in it.

I too suffer from issues with mms since moving to br5. All i get is the option to download the image but it never happens.

I deleted the mms settings from my phone then re created them. Still no joy.

Any ideas?

Thanks for the response existz, yes i use the ARHD full wipe between all ROM upgrades, as per your instructions.

I have installed all apps from market after BR5 install, but added data using Titanium Backup.

I will try full wipe again without any apps this time, and see what happens.

I'm still on BR5-test2 but I'm having a big problem when trying to get a fix with this rom...

I know I have to flash BR5 final, but has I'm on vacations still haven't the time for it...

But, I only had this problem with on one version of Icecold rom, beside that never had any problems with gps, always get a signal fix under 10sec (beside first fix). On br5-test2 only after a few minutes and after I exit the gps app and start again it will behve like if it's on the first fix...

But has I said, got to install new br5 final...

I never got MMS to work, in Icecold or in BR5, no matter what I do, can't make it happen...

I've deleted the apns, tried with internet data enabled, can't make it work...

I always get this also...
