Hi, I just flashed the BR7 in two devices and so far everything seems to be working fine. The only problem that I have (in both of them) is that when we try to play "Words with Friends" the letters that you play with are not showing up. I don't know is that is a recognize issue or it something that can or can't be fixed.

Is anyone having the same issue?

Thanks.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
I'm running BR7 and my Word With Friends is acting normal. No problems here. I am running the one with no ads, I'm not sure if that makes a difference. Did you do a full wipe? Did you restore any data? Try clearing data just for that one app and reboot the phone. Sometimes that helps.
[HTC Inspire 4G] thunderred:
Hi, I am running the one with ads, the free one. I did a "Wipe data/factory reset" and I didn't restore any data. I just clear the data for the app but still looking the same. Maybe I just need to buy the app?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
I doubt it's that. Did you wipe /system as well?
[HTC Inspire 4G] thunderred:
No, I only did the wipe data/factory reset. Should I do the format system too first?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
Yes. Since Existz is still making significant changes to the system files, you should always wipe it. There's no reason, that I know of, not to wipe system since it will all get reinstalled when you flash the ROM. I guess any changes you make to system will be lost, like editing build.prop.
[HTC Inspire 4G] thunderred:
ok, let me work on that. Thanks for the help. I would let you know.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
Glad to help. I use a Super Wipe script from this thread. It will erase and format your data, system and cache partition. It will not touch your SD card. Just flash it like you would flash a ROM and it does everything for you. Direct link is below.

http://goo.gl/hWSCt
[HTC Inspire 4G] thunderred:
Well, no luck. Still the same. I did the Super Wipe, and then flash the room and flash the inspiremod. No data recovery.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
I'm not sure if this will work, but you could try deleting the folder /sdcard/Android/data/com.zynga.words/

Then clear data for that app and reboot.

Edit: Here's an update. I think it's the new version of the app. I just updated it and it's acting the same way. One sec and I'll upload the old one.
[HTC Inspire 4G] thunderred:
Thanks, because I just go and did wipe and format all, including the sdcard and with the same ending. Of course it have to be a problem in their part, hehe.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
Yeah, it's a shame. Trying to keep us on our toes. Here's the apk for the old version.
[HTC Inspire 4G] thunderred:
Thanks again, you were really helpful. It working fine now. :highfive:
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
You're welcome. I'm glad I could help. It seems like it's an issue with the app. People in the Google Play store are leaving comments about this issue on other phones.

Hey, I was curious if anyone uses any kind of task killer? Is it necessary running aospX?
[HTC Inspire 4G] hallowed.mh:
This is my first post, so hello to all and thank you for all of your hard work and help! I'm new to improving my phone, and managed to get everything working just by reading through many helpful posts on xdaforums without having to post any questions of my own (yay search functions!). I just flashed BR7 a little bit ago after playing with CM7 for a little while.

As far as your question goes, I believe I read earlier in this thread about someone saying ICS used a lot of their RAM. I'm guessing this is why you are asking about a task killer? The first response to their question said that ICS was designed to use more RAM, and keep more apps running, but speeds the transition between running apps to make everything run smoothly. Perhaps you don't really need a task killer? The post after that said the person needed to switch to T2 of BR5, so maybe that resolved the issue that they were having.

I personally haven't used a task killer since dropping my stock ROM. My phone already runs better than it did before :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] jrloper:
http://geekfor.me/faq/you-shouldnt-be-using-a-task-killer-with-android/
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
A good alternative to a task killer is Watchdog. This watches for apps that use too much CPU (spin or are stuck) and either alerts you, or kills the app. I have not found a need for it with this ROM though.

The other day I had to do a for wipe and reinstall BR6 to restore connectivity with my phone. When I did that, it reformatted my SD card as well. I realize the implications for lost data, but what else does that mean? It was the same SD card I used when I rooted the phone and used to make the gold card. Does it impact running Hboot or cwm? Thanks.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
It only means you lost data. It won't impact anything else.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jrloper:
Goldcards are only needed for the initial "rooting"

Hi, I know I have asked before about the problems I've had, but that was in the dev thread and I don't want to clutter it up with my problems now that I've found this thread.

My issue is that I am unable to get any data service whatsoever. I am able to connect to ATT and have service sometimes, but when I do the bars are greyed out with no data service. At other times I have no service at places like my house where I should have full bars. I have tried searched for a network, and sometimes get an "error while connecting to network" and at other times am able to see ATT on the list and get the message "registered on network" when it is selected. I still have no data.

I have made sure that my SIM card works by testing it in other phones, have made sure that the contacts on the SIM cover are clean and making good contact, and have tried the APN settings from henrybravo's thread. (here). None of these things helped. I still get no data with his APN and the default APNs which had been working up until this week.

I have not flashed RCDATA or ril's since this has been discouraged. I am using the 12.59.60.26 radio, which had been working fine. These problems happened after using BR7 for several days with restored apps but they also occur with a clean install without anything restored.

I am going to add a logcat in case someone wants to look at it, but at this point it seems likely that it's a hardware and not a software problem. If anyone has info on or has heard of failing radios in Inspires/Desires I'd like to hear about it.

Thanks

Edit: turns out it isn't only existz ROM. Experiencing the exact same issue on Jellytime.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jrloper:
Something weird going on...

Have you tried a Gingerbread stable ROM? Only asking to see if by some odd coincidence it might work. Do you have insurance on your phone?

Sent from my Inspire 4G running AOSPX-BR7
[HTC Inspire 4G] amf66:
I'm planning on trying the latest Gingerbread RUU that came out last month. I doubt it will work, though.

Unfortunately, I do not have insurance. Mostly because the fee, $10 a month (at least) is too much since I'm very careful with my phone. It's frustrating for it to die on me like this. I haven't dropped it, so it must be a defect.

If all else fails I'll restore to stock and take it to Radioshack. We've been with AT&T for over ten years so they might cut me some slack on a replacement or an upgrade.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jmot205:
Hi guys. I'm following the dev thread for AOSPX and SupremeBeaver brought up a problem with battery drain that I share, but I've never posted to XDA so can't post in the dev thread yet so came here. Anyone else experiencing mad battery drain with the screen on? Using Smartassv2 and only noticed the drain around BR4-BR5, and it has stuck with me to BR7. Any ideas on how to diagnose/fix or do you reckon it may be something under the hood of the ROM? Love this ROM and would love it even more if I could hit the great battery life that others are posting about...
[HTC Inspire 4G] jrloper:
Here is what I did to optimize my battery life: I uninstalled all Gapps (Maps, Streetview, Talk, Google Search), except Play Store. Adjusted screen brightness to about 60% and changed back light time out to 30 seconds. I also run watchdog to lookout for hung apps. Keep the default CPU Min/Max/Governor. You might see some improvement.

[HTC Inspire 4G] amf66:
Alright, I am currently posting over 3G using the latest official RUU for ATT. Everything seems to be working.

Would it be possible that the lack of data and flakey network connection that I'm having is a rare AOSP issue?

I'm going to try one of the sense ICS ROMs and see if they have data and reliable connectivity.

Man, using a sense 3.0 ROM really makes me miss AOSPX. Everything seems wrong.

Woot! Glad your phones not toast. Did you try MIUIv4 or Jellytime?

Actually, bad news. It is not working. Despite having "H+" I have no data. It worked for a few hours and has sense stopped. Looks like it actually is dead. WiFi is fine. GSM is a no go.

Crap, sorry to hear that. I think I would be looking on Craigslist and eBay for a used one.

Sent from my Inspire 4G running AOSPX-BR7
[HTC Inspire 4G] amf66:
Before I try that I'll revert to stock and see what Radioshack and/or AT&T say about it. They might replace it or they might give me an early upgrade. At least, I hope they'd consider one of those two after being a customer for 10+ years.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jmot205:
Fair enough. Any idea why the other Google apps were draining the battery? Were they showing up as using a percentage in the battery usage screen? Mine is just primarily the screen (usually 60% with the next most battery using thing around 10-20%). My screen brightness is on Auto, which is usually less than 60% anyway as I don't really use my phone in sunlight or well lit places or anything. My screen timeout is 15 seconds, but I always turn off my screen when I put the phone down anyway.

Yeah, smartassv2 is the default I think, and I've been happy with it before as older versions of AOSPX didn't have this issue and I was doing fine with my current settings for battery life. Thanks, may give Watchdog a go to see if it identifies anything that is causing problems with my current setup.

Just seems strange that all my stuff was fine for battery before but in later BR versions it drains very rapidly. Not even sure if sending a logcat would be specific enough, as it'd basically be for a certain amount of time with the screen on and another when it's off (as it basically doesn't change a single percent when the screen is off). What do you reckon?
[HTC Inspire 4G] amf66:
A good way to find apps that eat battery is Better Battery Stats. It'll tell you what apps are keeping your phone awake, when they're active, and some other useful things. It's paid but worth it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jmot205:
Ah okay, cool. May give that a look into. Some people seem to be upset with the latest version of Better Battery Stats, but might grab it if reviews start to look better. Have you ever used it?

Either way, thanks for the idea. It may be something that an app like that can identify, and not AOSPX itself. I have yet to see if I get the drain on a fresh version without restore. I always full wipe, but restore my apps with TB (although never had an issue with it before, even across ROM types) so I don't know if Existz's issue tracker would accept my logcat in the first place, even if I do manage to just run one for a few minutes or so to show the drain?

Hey. I'm having an issue with wifi using this rom. 3g/4g works fine, but wifi just wont work. When I reboot the phone wifi turns on but a few seconds later it turns back off. Every time I turn it on and off it always does this.

I've already installed the the wifix manager and dialed in the # but still no go.

I've also already full/super wiped like 4 times trying to get it to work to no avail :(

Any ideas?

Thanks!

You're not flashing a different kernel are you? Also, I know it's a longshot, but make sure that the battery cover and the bottom cover are on tight/straight. I've heard of a couple people having issues because of this.
[HTC Inspire 4G] wrenhal:
Are you restoring apps that may control wifi like tasker?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Yvese:
I don't even know what flashing a different kernel means :eek:. Kernel = rom? :confused:

I'm flashing the rom linked at the aospx site ( BR7 DHD and inspiremod 0.5 ).

As for the battery I just checked it and seems fine.

Nope. Only wifi app I have installed is the wifix manager linked in the thread.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
Kernel is not the same as ROM. The kernel lets the software talk to the hardware. I'm sorry, but I'm not sure what could be wrong. No one has reported this problem recently.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Yvese:
Would flashing a different radio work?

I just tried Ice Cold Sandwich and Android Revolution HD but they all have wifi issues.

I rooted using ace kit which apparently flashes an older radio? /shrug
[HTC Inspire 4G] ai6908:
It sounds like a hardware issue... of-course try newer radio, and also try stock ROM to see if the issue persists. If it still does, it might be an hardware issue.

Calling your own cell number from your cell will get you your voicemail, that's what I always use.

You can also access your voicemail from a different phone by calling your cell, waiting for voicemail to pickup and pressing # when it does. You'll be prompted to enter your pass code, and then you're in.

Getting the VM number

Do a nandroid and install the stock rom if you did a nandroid. you should be able to get your VM number that way. Another option is to talk to the store you bought it from or catch a customer who just bought and is walking out of the same store. Ask them to dial voicemail and then get the number.

Luckily I was able to use my wife's phone to find out the number that applies to us.

rom lost in recovery

i posted this in redemption q&a but it hasnt been visited in a while so im gonna try here too. this probably isnt in the right question thread but its close enough i think. i was running ascension v2.0 and had a problem with sd card unmounting, so i tried to switch roms. with a clean wipe, the uclf modem thing first, then the AOSPxXx JB v2.1B2 and phone locked up in recovery. now i can get to bootloader screen and recovery screen but it wont read my sd card. it says it wont mount, and says my rom is "unknown". so i have a phone with no rom on it to read my sd card i believe... is there a fix? any advice would be certianly appreciated. thank you

Check on YouTube for how to replace the sd reader in the inspire. First try taking it out and reseating it as this may work just fine. I did that with my external speaker once. If that doesn't work, then you may need a new reader.

Hi all,

Has anyone had any luck in getting My Motospeak to work correctly on aospX? I'm currently running BR7 and while BR7 can see the device (in my case, the Motorola Roadster), My Motospeak does not see it at all. All the buttons respond properly (such as the media buttons) but I cannot use the functionality that My Motospeak provides (voice to text and such). This does work on AOSP Gingerbread ROMs so there's some sort of difference between those and aospX that prevents My Motospeak from seeing it.

I have restarted my phone, freshly wiped my phone, and tried disconnecting and reconnecting to no avail.

Pictured below is a screenshot showing my device connected but My Motospeak not seeing it. My Roadster is a compatible device.

If anyone has any suggestions I'd be open to trying them!

Thanks,

HTC Ispires 4g not booting up

Hi,

I installed aospX-1.0.0-MR1-DHD in my Inspire 4G phone and after a few days using it my phone crashed. Now I'm stuck in a bootloop. I got into recovery mode, performed a full wipe and installed not only your ROM but other 3 diffrent ones the result is the same. The aospX boot animation kicks in and nothing else happens.

When getting into recovery mode and hitting the "Info" option, I can still see the aospX-1.0.0-MR1-DHD rom as the "Current Rom" even when I already did a full wipe and installed another rom as, let's say MIUI.

Anyone has a recommendation of how to clean this rom from my phone so I can install another one and get it to work?
