Hello Everyone I'm really needing some help I have a fully stock AT&T 4G INSPIRE and hate the stock rom it freezes alot and etc. Ive flashed my old htc tilt 2 before so I have a lil expiernce on flashing.

Ive looked through the forums for detailed instructions on flashing a inspire and am a lil confused, I just want to find something step by step Its just i dont wanna brick my phone. I believe I need to root the phone 1st??? also my important question is do I need to back up my contracts and all that before I start the process??? THANK YOU
[HTC Inspire 4G] MMM-BACONSTRIPS:
oooh man I foresee this getting bad quickly.

Yes, in short (short because you WILL need to read and educate yourself on your own. No one is gonna hold your hand through this process, this is a development site and not a help me please site) you will need to root first then you can flash a new rom and all that other stuff.

I see your next question is, how do I root. easy answer: Hack Kit which is found in the dev forum. Read the entire OP and effen manual that comes with the hack kit and then re-read it again and again until it makes sense. While you're at it, take a good look at the stickies in the development thread as they give you the step by step you want for pretty much everything. If you're still a little lost or need more information the search function will be able to help you as many of the question you probably will have already have been answered. If at this point you're still confused, re-consider rooting your phone because everyone around here will give you the same advice, if you don't know what you're doing, don't do it.

So basic overview of the process is:

1. Root with ace hack kit.

2. once rooted find a ROM you like (don't ask which is best, if you want to know the answer search the forums for "best rom" and you'll see why I say don't ask.)

3. put rom on sdcard and flash in recovery

It's a fairly straight forward process once you've gained the knowledge. Good luck man!

and I think at this point, mods should consider closing this thread before it turns into a crap storm. I think I got the OP in the right direction.
[HTC Inspire 4G] si_blue:
Thank you!! I was up late last night and found the Hack Kit and reading up on it and it made sense I just didnt know at what point you were supposed todo it, but from what your saying is the 1st step thanks! One last question please will i lose my contacts if I flash my phone?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
Yes this will wipe your phone. How are your contacts setup? If they are "Google" contacts then they will resync when you sign back in with the same gmail address on the new ROM. If they are "Phone" contacts I suggest you export the "Phone" contacts to your memory card. Delete all your "Phone" contacts on the phone. Then import your contacts back from the card and choose "Google" contacts. You will never lose them again as long as you keep the same Gmail address.
[HTC Inspire 4G] MMM-BACONSTRIPS:
Not a problem man, I know its a bit overwhelming but if you can stomach the reading its spool worth it! As for your question agoat answered it perfectly... hope it all goes well!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Wulamoc:
I know a lot of people put a lot of faith in google... However, here is the 'sure' way.

Contacts ("People") > Menu Button > Import/Export > Export to storage

after you flash, if you have an issue with google's managing your contacts, you can import this vcf file

I've been following the posts of the new and older ICS roms and just have a few general ?'s regarding flashing a new rom.. I have been using Ineffabilis v1.3 for quite a while now and am completly satisfied with its performance but am itching to try another Rom. Seems like there's good and bad about both ICS and GB but seems its a PITA to have to relock the bootloader in order to get new radios or what not..this is where i get lost..i'm not new to flashing roms or kernels (had an Incredible and flashed roms like crazy) i just don't understand anything in regards to what the requirements are for ICS vs GB. I'd hate to brick my phone!! Any insight would be greatly appreciated.. THANK YOU in advance!! :D
[HTC Rezound] woodyt74:
I was in the same boat because I had never flashed an RUU before. Head over to Scott's ROMs and in his forums he has a step by step process laid out. I went through that after reading up on everything multiple times and it went fine. Back up everything you want from the phone, internal and external sd cards, to your PC BEFORE flashing the RUU. They will be wiped by the process.

Good luck and have fun. ;)
[HTC Rezound] wareagle27:
Thanks for the info..ill definitely check it out!!
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
highly important to backup everything even though only internal gets wiped. there's a few quirks but overall decent enough for daily use

[HTC Rezound] wareagle27:
Been running Rezrom for the last 24 hours and am pretty content..for now at least..lol thanks for the info tho
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
I did the whole re-lock bootloader and what not and it is totally worth it. Especially the dev version with AOSP. It isn't hard to upgrade to the 4.0 cleanroms, if you know what you are doing.
[HTC Rezound] wareagle27:
Everything is better in my opinion just miss small tweaks here and there.. is there a way to install custom fonts and is there an app that controls the individual volumes like ringer/notifications..seems like the ringer and notification volumes are combined which is annoying
[HTC Rezound] tcinfantino:
New RUU ICS vs GB

I will chime in and say that it is definitely worth it. As said before in the CleanROM thread Scott has a very detailed step by step guide. Just a few pointers before you jump in.

1) make sure you have a card reader for your computer that you can connect your removable micro-SD card to. Trust me, if you screw up somewhere in the process, having a reliable way to access the SD card is a life saver.

2) before flashing always wipe/factory reset 3 times, some think it is overkill, but if you end up with some odd glitch or bug when you just wiped once, you will most likely have to wipe and flash again to get rid of the bug...so of course you are actually saving time and hassle by just doing it 3 times in the first place.

3) make sure your battery is full or almost full before you start the process, you will avoid many problems by not having your phone battery die in the middle of a flash or update.

4) read, read and read again all the information and the instructions on what you are going to be doing, then make sure you understand and are comfortable Before you actually start. Reading through the forums and knowing beforehand what others have experienced, and the fixes, will make your life 100% better while you play with your phone.

All that said, the new RUU is awesome, better radio reception, better battery life for most (once you drain and recharge a few times), and ICS is very cool on the Rezound. Happy flashing people and hope you like ICS as much as I do.
[HTC Rezound] HarleyChick:
Did you ever get an answer to the volume controls for ringer/notifications? Driving me crazy too, and the main reason I'm not on ICS.
[HTC Rezound] wareagle27:
Yes..the only thing I have found that works is this app called ICS ringer control. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brianhislop.icsringervolume

App works great!!!
[HTC Rezound] HarleyChick:
Thanks so much. This could be the answer to my prayers!
[HTC Rezound] wareagle27:
Very welcome!! Hope it helps..it was driving me INSANE too! :cool:
[HTC Rezound] HarleyChick:
Worked perfectly! Now if I can just figure out how to change fonts and make them larger, I'll be in heaven! Thanks, again, for your help. :D

[HTC Sensation] kiwiwiwi:
As far as this source is right, we could get far better ROMs because of the Qualcomm's drivers release of the whole Adreno 2xx-Series.

It affects almost every HTC and Sony Ericsson Xperia. Even the S4...

What do you think about this?

Source is in German.

HELLO GUYS :D

I compiled CM7 from newest sources and I would want to see if it works like AOSP

I've not done any tweaking as of yet because I don't know what will work for the R .

Features:

- Theme Chooser (freedom to install any CM7 theme)

- Ability to take Screenshots directly from Power Menu

- Extended power menu

- Allows rebooting normally , to recovery and even bootloader (not applicable)

Anyway , I need a kind soul to take screenshots (you will be credited)

Prealpha Release 1:

- Built from sources as at 21/3/2012

- Does not boot due to problem with the TARGET_ARCH_VARIANT_FPU

Preapha Release 2:

- Changed TARGET_ARCH_VARIANT_FPU

- Still not booting

Prealpha Release 3:

- Built by FranzJesus

- Removed ARMv7 errata patch

- Booting
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] m.kochan10:
No boot, freeze on splash screen :(

Sorry I cannot provide a logcatfile because my sgr won't turn on when usb/charger is plugged. (Once I see the splash screen and release power button booting process stops immediately and returns to charging screen. No such problems on stock though)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] polomalkin:
m.kochan10, is there any ways to flash other rom after it? if your SGR not "bricked" I'll try to flash CM7 too.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] m.kochan10:
Of course, u can easily enter recovery and flash rom / restore backup in a regular way. It's not a problem at all.

It's just no way to provide a logcat file. To do it u must try to boot your system while connected to usb and this seems impossible here.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] CallMeVentus:
Hmm....that's strange . Will debug with FranzJesus

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] m.kochan10:
EDIT2: Replacing kernel with the one from last AOSP didn't make any difference....actually it did one, namely: Booting process stops on a splash screen but then phone boots into recovery mode automatically by itself. :)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] sarun_biotech:
I just replaced the boot.img from the AOSP release 2 with the one on cm7 and flashed it.

after reboot, it shows the splash screen and then goes back to CWM recovery...

Would you be kind enough to donate one or money to them ?? :D

If not, nonconstructive comments best kept to oneself.

If there is real interest from a dev and enough of us can donate a small amount, it wouldn't be such a bad idea.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] 'cooleagle':
How did you know EmoBoiix3 doesn't have a R ? :rolleyes:

I know he has access(he doesn't use it personally though) to one but for his own valid reasons he can't use it for testing.

I assume you have a R, you should to try to cook some custom ROMs forget CM7 to get an idea how many aspirins they might have to take to get one ROM working correctly.

Don't you think its selfless of them to make ROMs for a device which they themselves don't use/have ?

About the time taken kindly don't ask for ETA's on this forum, it will be stated by the dev themselves when it'll be released.

I don't think statements like these add anything to the forum.

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] m.kochan10:
I've tried....but it seems like there's simply no way to switch on your device (after you've flashed rom) while you're connected to PC via usb.

1)I switch off the phone and immediately get charging screen (no animation, just a battery pic)

2)Open cmd,

a) type: adb logcat > logfile.txt ,

b) immediately get information - "waiting for device"

3) Press power button until I see splash screen

4)Once I release the power button booting process stops and charging screen appears instead.

No problems with entering both DM and RM. Such problem doesn't exist on stock. I've no idea how to bypass it.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] CallMeVentus:
It definitely is a boot.img problem then.....damn this is **** lol

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] xlm13x:
i dont know much about technical stuff but i just checked web for details of sgr and gtab10.1 i have found that both uses a different version of tegra processor.

sgr is using tegra 250 ap20h with ulp geforce 300 mhz.

gtab10.1 is using tegra 250 t20 processor with ulp geforce 333 mhz.

(source wiki and gsmarena)

i think gtab have advanced cpu than sgr. as i said i dnt knw much about technical terms :D but does this difference can make any problem? is there any difference in architecture of both cpus? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] eaglerazor123:

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] xlm13x:
sgr and g2x/o2x both shares the same tegra 2 ap20h chipset but that doesnt means that we can use its rom on our device, both device belong to different manufacturer, different manufacturers have different roms so i dont think it willl boot on sgr but u can give it a try.

but if our devs do some modification to that build i think it will boot as both shares same chipset and uses same drivers. well i m not a dev so cant tell much about this :D wait till one of our devs comments

i've tried by flashing the CM7 of LG O2X by changing the Boot.IMG with our ASOP's Boot.IMG but no luck its not even booting.... But i remember once Franz was saying that if we modify the Update Script of LG's O2X it will work.... so if some one can give a try it will be helpful....

why cont mobile manufactures make mobiles like Laptops or desktop, there should be option's like what ever OS we want we should be able to install it.:D:D

Hi!

Here comes a newly compiled CM7.2 from our sources without the erratapatch (Thanks Adam77Root).

Same functionality as the latest AOSP build but without working phonecalls.
