Excellent! Full BR3!!

Also Does anyone know of a way to add multiple icons to your lockscreen? I've seen it on other ICS but i dont feel that paying for a launcher/lockscreen mod is worth it especially with the performance loss. I would just like to add Maps and SMS to the lock screen and possibly XDA :D.
[HTC Inspire 4G] CYRAXDroid:
I don't think so I usually. Have this issue with roms. When I flash
[HTC Inspire 4G] Rakkesh27:
Thank you so much exitz :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] P00t:
Awesome! Last version I used was BR1. I just flashed BR3 to see some changes.

WOW! HUGE change! Awesome job existz! keep it coming!
[HTC Inspire 4G] b24zero:
This is HUGE. Video is working!!!!!

Thanks existz.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Galaen:
Excellent work! Is anybody else having trouble installing the stock battery zip? I redownloaded it, and it aborts in recovery every time.
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Ill check it, i might have a bad upload...if so then ill reupload it

EDIT:

Bad upload...give me a little bit and ill post a fixed zip in the same post as the last one

EDIT 2:

For some reason everytime i upload it via XDA the download is corrupted..so for now ive just uploaded it to Goo..so download stock battery icon here:

[HTC Inspire 4G] raulz28:
About to flash this. Good job existz I just flashed the BR2 last week and it was the first time flashing your ROM and I'm loving it can't wait to try this next one.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Matt James:
Gonna try this out :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] wrenhal:
I know you always say to do a full wipe, but if I'm not worried about helping bug check right now, would it hurt to just install over BR2?
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Its not just about bug reporting, it helps with stability..etc.. Since we switched different toolchains..etc.. it can cause issues..So a full wipe is required regardless, or you may run into issues, FCs, things not running correctly..etc.
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
Dude...go back and read his post for b3 lol. It says a full wipe is required. Why even ask?

If you run into problems and you did not fully wipe please do not expect any support until you do it properly.

[HTC Inspire 4G] wrenhal:
I understand, but I'm just wondering what could be different than when my phone upgraded to gingerbread? I know it's a precaution and all but really. Actually, I only have an 8GB card and I'm running out of room for nandroids.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ghostofcain:
Go ahead and install over the current build. BUT, do not report any bugs or complain about things not working as expected and expect a whole world of hurt and things FC'ing here and there, also don't comment on functionality as no-one will be experiencing the same build as you, OK.
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
BR2 was compiled with a different toolchain and optimizations, so flashing BR3 over it can cause a lot of issues...etc.. For example where with gingerbread, a lot of these things were not changed from build to build, there were just minor updates here and there . But this is completely different, the whole source code has been compiled completely different, and a lot of major things has changed. So a full wipe is required, or it will cause issues.

Just to list a few, in BR3 I used O3 compiler flag on arm_CFLAGS...so the all the libs, packages..etc.. that are built in arm mode are compiled completely different.. same goes for enabling strict-aliasing.. etc..plus BR3 uses a new tool chain, so the whole source code is compiled differently. And not to mention a whole new/updated webkit/skia from JellyBean. These are major updates and by not doing a full wipe its going to cause issues.

A lot of stuff is done completely different than how a lot of the other roms are done...most of them are not full source built, like all Sense roms... they are not compiled from source (because HTC does not release source for sense)... so all the updates to these roms are done post-compile... Anytime the source has major changes, it requires a full wipe, this is why I say no excuses... Things may work or they may not, so to ensure a 100% functioning rom I have to require it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Y2054h:
Dont like work around, does compass in the latest maps work?
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Yes, it works... If your having issues, if i remember correctly some have posted recalibrating proximity sensor fixes this (i believe proximity sensor, could be wrong), but it is fixable by just recalibrating.. Might have to wait till someone whos had to do it to posts though as im not 100% if it was proximity sensor recalibration or something else.
[HTC Inspire 4G] stavros3006:
Wonderful update! Thank you existz!
[HTC Inspire 4G] CYRAXDroid:
Any one can recommend. A radio I live in Fla I know it depends where you live etc..
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
Well then you know the answer. Common man you have been around the radio threads for some time lol.

:)

"I am the Bacon Pope"
[HTC Inspire 4G] CYRAXDroid:
hahaha I know... =/ just for some reason this time on the BR3 this has been the longest time that my gps is taking for ever to get a lock and I just bought this FitBit for fitness which uses gps and I would like to use today lol.. But this is going to sound like a **** to ask but im looking through the radio thread and its gingerbread test etc.. and its a ICS rom that shouldnt make any differences I have not flash a radio yet was going to but never did for ics that I can remember really..

and im seeing this and its the desire hd radio that has been test for inspire... 12.54.60.25x_26.09.04.11_M2 - OS Base: Gingerbread

Desire HD - Released: 04-28-2011 and the ril is 2.2.0018G

Now I also see this 12.56.60.25x_26.10.04.03_M - OS Base: Gingerbread

AT&T Update - Release Date: Released 08-08-2011 in which this radio does not show the ril of 2.2.0018G so I could use this radio and the other ril since its a Aosp ril? just making sure

Hahah never mind the rom it self has the ril of 2.2.0018G already so yes I guess I could use the at&t radio date of 8/8/11
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
I have been using the 04.03 radio on every rom I've flashed since last year regardless of sense, cm7/9, gingerbread, or ics. Works for me but is different for everyone.

"I am the Bacon Pope"
[HTC Inspire 4G] CYRAXDroid:
Well did flash that at t radio so when I get a chance to be out side for awhile ill see if that helps
[HTC Inspire 4G] kennypow3rs:
Make sure you flash the inspiremod to convert gps to north America after a new rom install. The 4.03 radio locks just fine.
[HTC Inspire 4G] CYRAXDroid:
O I posted a pic that you may like a few pages back thought it was funny.page 365 post 3644 lol

OK so I flashed back the BR2 just to test something out and I didn't flash any radio or anything just went through the normal set and bam! GPS lock in like 3 seconds idk what it is but its working now..
[HTC Inspire 4G] ghostofcain:
Issue with BR3 - Full wipe etc etc

Using the Natwest banking app, balances etc are not being displayed, now this issue has raised it's head with a couple of ROM's but never with this til now. I believe this may effect some other EU mobile banking apps if memory serves me correctly, anyhow a picture is worth a 1000 words.

Balance should be displayed below the blacked out sections
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
I've been trying 4.03 the last few days and just tried and am getting a lock real quick...granted I had to try a couple times the first try, but after that its locking on just fine
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
The only thing I can think of is its due to aosp skia/webkit.. which if it is, then we will probably have to wait till they push a fix...But hopefully I'm wrong...Do you have any links to other cases of this happening with different roms?
[HTC Inspire 4G] CYRAXDroid:
hrmm weird well this morning when I went to work I get full service out there..and I had this br3 with inspiremod installed and I was outside for about 20mins with gps on and never locked..and didnt flash any radios or rils. Idk but just about an hour ago I freshly install br2 with inspiremod and did flash anything else but that. And I opened gps and locked in 3 seconds. Idk but its cool with me ill be sticking with this because I kind of need gps working but ill flash br3 once you do a full release if you are.. but either man thanks for you help and all the others helping and giving input..thats support I like for the members here.. :good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good:
[HTC Inspire 4G] techstoney:
Full wipe, BR3, flashed inspire mod. With headphones on I get that hissing noise like when your about to hear music or a video but it happens just when tapping on app icons on home screen or app drawer button. Last a few seconds until button is pressed again.

Added logcat.

is anyone having any problem with Data on? even though data is switched on, I am not able to connect. and Data is getting switched off when the mobile is restarted.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kennypow3rs:
I didn't see it until you mentioned it lmfao Ashley shauffer!
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Nope, work fine for me.. Make sure its not just a network issue.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Rakkesh27:
network is fine exitz..data is getting switched off when I restart the phone..this is not happened on BR2
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Hm, not sure..I am unable to reproduce this.. Data works fine, even through reboots. If you have any apps installed, make sure one of them is not causing this. If all else fails, then do a clean full wipe (even if you already did) and make sure the issue happens on a clean install, without any apps installed and/or any data restored..etc.., just see if it does it the way the rom comes completely stock. If so, then ill need a logcat log of the issue
[HTC Inspire 4G] CYRAXDroid:
OK I finally got it working on br3 GPS
[HTC Inspire 4G] misterbbq:
i went back to the 4.03 radio.

but i can't seem to send any mms files using the built in messenger or go sms. radio or apn setting anybody guess?

edit

internet works. sms works. sats connect 7/7 within 15 seconds. just can't send mms. so i'm going to guess i need to change an apn setting?
[HTC Inspire 4G] CYRAXDroid:
This is what I do to save room on my SD card from backups

1.I have a folder on my PC called android and i have other sub folders one of them is rom backups then with in that I have a folder of what rom I'm using and name it.

2.I do my backup and when im done doing so I hook my phone up to the PC the backup would be in clockwork mod and you will see a folder called backup then I drag and drop my backup into the folder I named it backups on my pc I do not change the name of the backup cause it does it for you.

3. If I had to do a restore then hook phone to PC open clockwork mod the drag and drop my B/U into the restore folder boot into recovery select B/U and restore and restore

Do that and it will help u clean up that SD card get some memory back
[HTC Inspire 4G] Shimmty:
Thanks for the great rom Existz! My favorite update is the ability to record video. Thanks a lot :thumbup:
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
I've had MMS issues before with different ROMs, and it would even persist from one to the next even after a full wipe. Maybe it needs a bit of time but here are some things to try.

1. Make sure your mobile data is on and works. This is necessary for MMS.

2. Go to menu>system settings>more...>mobile networks>network operators> select ATT

3. Menu>Send Message Settings>Split 160>Pick something other than Don't split.

4. Dial *#*#4636#*#*, Go to Phone information, scroll down to smsc, click refresh (NOT UPDATE) Exit out after the values are filled in the blank area

5. Caution with this one. I'm not sure what consequences this may have, but it seemed to help some people. Use root explorer, and make sure it is set to R/W mode (read/write). Navigate to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db and delete that file, then restart your phone.

I hope one of those works for you.
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
Make sure you have your data turned on.
[HTC Inspire 4G] misterbbq:
option 1 could never find the network. 3. seems to have helped. thanks!

MMS not working on BR3 :(

Hi.

Since upgrading to BR3, incoming MMS images fail to download. It just says "Downloading" and I get the spinner for about a minute and then nothing.

I'm on Orange UK and the APN settings are set to their listed values.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] dcunited08:
I got it working on my phone, thanks for the tip. It seems kinda buggy but still useful.
[HTC Inspire 4G] slgooding:
As I mentioned before, there is an audio bug where the max volume gets really quiet after some time. This issue is still present with the latest release. I am not the only one with this. A reboot seems to be the only fix. Could it be related to the inspiremod?

When adjusting the volume I get 2 errors from logcat.

Yeah its not 100% fixed just release but that's cool that its working

And its almost time to get drunk and light some fireworks off happy 4th
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
Look 1 page back. I posted several potential ways to solve it. And please use the search function whenever you can. One thing I didn't post and someone else caught, make sure your mobile data is working. It's necessary for MMS.

I was wondering about this... Does this affect the performance of the battery? or just the icon? because i preferred the old icon with the % in the corner. Tho i do like the size of this one.
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Just the icon, the only thing different is the pngs
[HTC Inspire 4G] Savok:
Update: battery seems to be working great in this version! Left overnight idle for 10 hours and I'm still at 92% (rather than 60 as I normally would be). Radio still working great here in Jacksonville, FL.

The only thing I've noticed with the update is the notification and music through the speaker is really quiet. I almost missed a couple calls and texts

Question about version

I downloaded the aospX-1.0.0-BR3-Linaro-Test4-DHD.zip and now I'm getting the update notification of aospX-1.0.0-BR3-DHD.zip

Any difference?
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Yes
[HTC Inspire 4G] nhshah7:
woot! been busy lately so didn't have time to flash the test builds, but about to flash BR3 now!

random side notes for ex:

I finally nailed down a logcat of the messaging error where it freezes up with messaging when you have tons of threads and messages restored. This issue seemed to start at BR1. Someone else reported it as well, but we never got a logcat. I couldn't ever grab it because it never seemed to happen with terminal emulator running a logcat. Anyways, long story short, I finally got it, but unfortunately I couldn't get a reboot in before the logcat because it happens so randomly. I'm posting the logcat here and not on google code because of this, since I'm not sure if the logcat is good and because it was on BR2. I'll report back if I still have the issue on BR3 after I flash it. You may not want to bother going through this until then, but whatever works for you is fine! (just posting this so that it can be referred to if necessary)

Second note: I was playing around with the stock camcorder app yesterday on BR2 and got 480p video working up to 9 seconds before a FC. Not sure if this was known or not, but just my 2 cents.

As always ex, thanks for your incredible dedication! And get your son coding asap, he may be the next big thing ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
480p fully works in BR3, no FC, saves fine and plays back in Gallery fine... So 480p is fixed..(and its an actual fix, not the workaround with ParanoidAndroid libs..etc) I also removed all the other options since none of them work yet, so now the only option is 480p.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Cmrune:
I had this issue, but uninstalling and then reinstalling fixed it for me.

For the logcat, get alogcat from the market and when you have issues just go into the app and hit save. Finally, just upload it when you make a post.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ~wolverine~:
Just updated to BR3 yesterday. I had been running AR28 since the middle of April with no problems whatsoever. I just wanted to say you do excellent work existz. Thank you.
[HTC Inspire 4G] P00t:
will there be a fix for 720p?
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Probably not for awhile.. We were lucky to get 480p working, it just happened by mistake. But 720p is going to require some actual work..im not sure if its in the kernel driver, framework, camera hal..etc..
[HTC Inspire 4G] juannicolas:
Thank you!

Full wipe coming up!
[HTC Inspire 4G] dreamland2000:
I have just installed the latest version and am having an issue with the the play store constantly force closing even when I'm not using it.

I have full wiped, tried a new set of gapps, fixed permissions etc but still won't work!

Any ideas?
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Not sure, works fine for me... Are you using a smaller DPI? If so I only support stock 240...any lower may cause issues/FCs

If not, then do another full clean wipe, don't install any apps or restore any kind of data (just the way the rom comes completely stock) and see if it does it then...if so, I'll need a logcat log of the issue. If it doesn't, then resume to install your apps back one at a time, preferably no backups..then keep on and see if the issue happens again.
[HTC Inspire 4G] nhshah7:
Yep, I'm aware :)

Lol I read every post so I caught all the hubbub about those libs. Glad its properly working now!
[HTC Inspire 4G] dreamland2000:
I am using the dpi that is set in the build.prop

I will try another clean install later wen I get home and if still the same will post a log.

Thanks

Update 1 - ok so I reinstalled the rom and let the market install the first couple of apps then used tb to restore the remaining apps, restarted then restored the data.

So far everything seems to be running well. I am having the same issue as another user with the Natwest banking app not showing the balance but not the end of the world!

Great rom otherwise
[HTC Inspire 4G] CYRAXDroid:
I really couldnt find anything but... is there anyway to test a kernel out but other then waiting like a 2 days to tell if thats a good one for per individual kind of like run a test on each . if that makes any sense. Because I liked the BR2 kernel doughnut. For all the activity I do that kernel held up strong. At 1st I was wanting to flash a different kernel but I stuck with it.And I liked it a lot. Sooooo was wondering can I use the doughnut kernel on BR3 other then frosted cherry. If so how can I do so.I do have the BR2 still saved on my pc.
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Theres really no difference between BR2 kernel and BR3 kernel, the only difference between the two is 1 gpu driver change, which only changes name of vmalloc allocator to something more appropriate..and a critcal fix for ext4. The other stuff was already in BR2 kernel. So they are literally 99.9% the same. You can check the dates in the github commit history from the time the commit was pushed to when BR2-BR3 was released. So technically the only difference between the 2 is just the ext4 fix (which is only a 1 line change), since the kgsl change was just a rename from vmalloc to page_alloc.

https://github.com/existz/htc-kernel-msm7x30/commit/d4dc3d9527e529563b7b638c286463444cea3b9b

And BR2 kernel was creamed_coconut :P
[HTC Inspire 4G] CYRAXDroid:
Cool man thanks for the info but if I wanted to could I use that kernel
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
If you wanted to you could, but honestly theres no need or reason to use it, and i advise against it. Your literally not going to see any difference at all (they are the same kernel).. the kernel in BR3 just includes a crucial fix for ext4, which just fixes missing a call to save_error_info (nothing thats going to change performance, stability..etc..etc).. the other change doesnt change anything as its just a rename,..Thats the only changes from BR2-BR3 kernel wise. You will just be flashing a kernel with a different name, thats all.

But the only way you will be able to flash it is by flashing the whole boot.img, but this will also change the ramdisk back to BR2 version (ie...init.rc, init.spade.rc, ueventd..etc..etc..) And I advise against flashing back to an older version. But in order to flash a boot.img you will need ENG S-OFF and flash the boot.img via bootloader/fastboot..

fastboot flash boot boot.img
