the amount of time? the phone's been out for a week, not your life. you still have to make a goldcard which is the problem for 90% of people in the first place. congrats if it roots at all, i'm not going to brick my phone by running your scripts.

you ditch your projects after you've created them.

congratulations though, really. more than i'm willing to do.

oh, i'm not "hating". really, the trouble is the gold card. the project would have been better going in the direction of a gold card utility first, then your current project.

it's funny you want me banned for giving my opinion.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
I gave up on Samsung as a whole a while back the hardware was great but the software lacked. HTC is where it's all at. I did actually update that ROM and my other ROMs and themes. This is not about that.

but, if it does get working, truly good job as it was rendered impossible for a one click.
[HTC Inspire 4G] alwayslearning:
ouch! The gold card is a lot easier to make than it reads, if you follow the instructions step by step and don't hurry it is very easy. In fact there is a great video on YouTude that walks you through it, any noob could do it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Symmetric:
I think I know the answer, but...

because this actually flashes two different roms, we're going to lose data in the process, right?

Go ahead and link to the video you used, and I'll put it in the OP. ;)

Bubby,

Everything goes fine including rage, if you follow instructions strictly as it has been written. I can confirm that rage problem is fixed.

Mine problem was Superuser, but fixed this with dondola's advise:

________________________________________________

For those having Superuser problems, I posted this link a few pages back

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=886999

Push this new superuser file with recovery, it will fix your problem.

Sense devices with firmware 1.72 and higher have issues with superuser, I installed this and get no more crashing.

________________________________________________

Emphasizing: RECOVERY mode.

For people who have problem with phone terminal commands:

After getting forked 4972 childs, close terminal by pressing "menu" button and click on "Reset term".

Open the terminal again will force you to close. Open terminal again and NOW you can enter the command: /data/local/gfree -f

Bubby, just keep going your way . . you are great kid.

Thanks again, Bob
[HTC Inspire 4G] hasssan1:
thanks for your help. my process is done and also used the bloat option to remove them. Now, how can i confirm that my phone is rooted and how can i uninstall ATT crap ?

Thanks,

P.S mine is not rooted. titanium back up say that it's not rooted. should i start the process again ? can i re use the same gold card ?

Thanks,
[HTC Inspire 4G] mrro82:
bob, so I'm crystal clear, I download that zip. Put it on the root or my SD card, boot into bootloader and select recovery and go to this file?
[HTC Inspire 4G] lrs421:
Strange, try clearing the app data and wiping cache. Let me know if that works.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mrro82:
The superuser app comes up fine. It's the apps needing root that don't work. Same message for all of them. I cleared the data and caches too. I'm gonna try what bob posted in the morning. Too tired now.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fq9228:
Yes, you are crystal clear . . and IT WORKS!

Actually, you can put this zip patch in any SD card folder (or new dedicated folder) - in recovery mode you can browse folders in order to find the file . . .

I need help. i tried the process three times, but my phone is still not rooted. is the phone have to be in charge only mode ? also in setting >applications> i do not see unknown sources. I hope some one put the instruction / guideline for newbies.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ddiehl:
Since it seems that most issues those are having involve proper creation of the gold card, is there a way to test that the gold card has been created successfully BEFORE attempting the root process?

After reading through this thread, I'm still not confidant in my abilities to try this yet. Soon though.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mrro82:
Charge mode yes. Make sure usb debugging is on too. Go to apps then development and check debugging. Also make sure the sim/sd door is on. This makes a huge difference.

mine has been fine all day but what is clockwork and superuser? google is no help for android terminology lol.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mi04se1:
Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou. I now have s-off, root, su, and clockwork. Everything works. I tried TiBu and rom manager and su granted permission. I tried to delete the bloat with the gui, but wouldnt do it. Ill just use TiBu to delete the bloat. As an added bonus, my apps and contacts were saved without me saving them.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mi04se1:
I got the same thing. All I did was turn antivirus off until after it downloaded.

[HTC Inspire 4G] civilian_pr0ject:
i'm trying to use custom unlock sliders with widgetlocker but when i try to root bypass the 5 second superuser force closes. i tried to download the super user fix but it says to either reboot and hold down volume or to launch clockwork mod recovery thru rom manager. well in rom manager i dont see that option specifically but the things i do try cant be done because they have the same super user force close.

if i reboot and hold volume down it automatically selects hboot and tries to load and update the pd98img all over again...

so what do i do?

just want a slider unlock
[HTC Inspire 4G] fq9228:
Move that "pd98.img" file from SD root to another folder (your choice), put the SU zip patch in any SD card folder (or new dedicated folder). Boot in HBOOT , highlight recovery mode (vol down or up), push power button and now you can browse folders in order to find the patch file . . highlight this patch zip file and hit again the power button to flash . . reboot system and that is it . .

Alright, I'm

REALLY

stumped. I successfully completed the one click program, I have the stock ATT ROM up and running with Superuser installed, but I don't have Clockwork Mod installed, ROM manager won't let me install it (SU force close errors), Easy S-Off fix doesn't work (corrupt bootloader error) and I can't install the patched SU zip because I don't have recovery installed. I seem to be in a hole that none of the fixes get me out of.

What am I missing?! I have a phone that's in limbo!! Help!!

EDIT: Crap, never mind, I got it!
[HTC Inspire 4G] ah_hin:
mind sharing how you got it working? specifically, on the clockwork recovery?

edti: I tried fixing clockwork by following the "easy fix" that Bubby posted in the first post, but when I used visionary, and tap temproot, it gives me a black screen... so I cannot complete this easy s-off procedure to fix the clockwork....

thus, without clockwork, cannot fix superuser error...

what else can I do?
[HTC Inspire 4G] blperks2:
ok, so I get all the way to S-Off and it says it is ready to add the cooked rom, hit bootloader, bootloader is selected and I hit continue nothing. I hit power and it goes into the load but has errors and does nothing. What do I do now? I am downgraded but not sure what to do now?
[HTC Inspire 4G] eighty1:
I have been trying to figure that out as well because it mentions osx but when downloaded its the windows version. It seems that soooo many are having issues and some have success in figuring things out. I would like to see more support from the dev in trying to help the community iron out things or update this so ppl arent force close this and that. Not the simplest or exactly one click root. I appreciate his work but it seems the same problems have been occurring for some time now. I have moved from the atrix to the inspire but never have I seen unclear instructions to root when its supposed to be one click, and lack of support from a dev on project of this caliber. Hope that all the issues can be ironed out to make this what it is supposed to be. Thanks for your work and the time you put into this, we all do appreciate it.

Help....did I mess up? Expert advice

Hey guys, so I decided to try this last night and got weird results. Maybe someone can shed some light as to where I am in the process. I followed the instructions and everything seemed to work great, however what I wanted was after I did the simple one click and done to then flash to coredroid rom. Well I tried to flash to it and all it did was take me to the hboot and got stuck there. It would say htc then fade out to black and nothing. Weird thing is that if I reboot it would just go back to hboot. So I loaded my gold card and loaded the 1 click image without running the installer with phone plugged in. After that phone rebooted fine and was working. Even had superuser. But am I in the downgraded rom? Or is all ok? How do I flash to coredroid? I know I have s-off and rooted

Here is what version phone says I have.

Kernel 2.6.32.21-g3c08447

Build 1.80.502.3

Baseband 12.39.60
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
That's the stock AT&T ROM. You should be good to go. If clockworkmod doesn't work for some reason, try reflashing it through ROM Manager a few times. The latest 3.0.0.6 version supports our phone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] hasssan1:
Yes, that's what i did, and still no root. Is it ok if i copy the log here so you or some one else can help me ?

i still cannot figure out how to remove my bloatware?

i tried this titanium backup program, and using "force remove app (by recovery exploit)" i am told my phone will reboot twice and then it will be gone.

tried this on the bloat version of facebook on my inspire 4g, and what happened was it rebooted and gave me a picture of an android with an /!\ over his head. when i pressed my home key the clockwork system popped up so i rebooted into my os and facebook was still there.

what does it take? i may just end up hiding the icons for these apps but the problem is they always run themselves and chug tons of my ram.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
You had no issues, because after you get the cooked AT&T ROM pushed to your phone, it's ALREADY S-OFF and ROOTED, thus you're already DONE. ;)

If you're having issues midway through the process, check to see that USB Debugging is enabled and that Fastboot is off.

Once you are done with the process, you may turn fastboot back on and it will not hurt anything at all. ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Read my post about it a few pages back, I successfully used Root Explorer to delete the bloat APK files from the System/app folder, thus also removing their icons from the phone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] hasssan1:
Thank, fastboot is on , but when i try to open titanium back up, still says my phone is not rooted. any other way to confirm phone is rooted ?
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Download the "Terminal Emulator" app from the market, and open it.

Type "su", and if it changes from "$" to "#", you have root.

SuperUser should ask for permissions after you type it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] eskimosnow:
I've been on "pushing cooked AT&T ROM" for like 10 minutes. As I was waiting, I realized I had Fast Boot on, so I just turned it off. It's still pushing the ROM. Should I continue to wait?
[HTC Inspire 4G] civilian_pr0ject:
well everything is working like a charm.

i want to install a custom rom now and theres just always so many little contradictions that make me unsure of what im doing.

i'm trying to pick between 2 roms, CoreDroid and CM7. What i want is top performance and battery life, reliability/stability, and a stock appearance that i can customize myself (dont want someone else's fancy appearance)

it SEEMS like core droid is a great way to go, with mentions of ram improvement, a healthy overclock, and great battery improvement.

the instructions seem easy enough but heres a question.

it says you need Radio/ENG S-OFF, well using this thread my phone is now S-OFF but it doesnt say ENG, does that matter?

can i just go use the rom manager that is now on my phone or do i need to perform another step for this radio thing?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bhull521:
To many issues

I have s-off but cannot do anything due to SU and Clockwork Issues. Eng s-off says corrupted bootloader. Should i go through the whole process again?

Bubby's process ?
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
I'm continuing to automate the process within the next few hours. I gathered some research on sending commands to the phone while it is in the bootloader, thus maybe we could see a fully automated install here in the future. I'm seeing what I can do. Sorry for the wait, and thank to those answering questions. :)

[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Bubby, I need you to post this please.

BEFORE BEGINNING THIS PROCESS, TURN OFF ALL ANTIVIRUS, ANTISPYWARE, AND FIREWALL PROGRAMS ON YOUR PC

Antivirus programs will pick up his linux exploit as... well... a linux exploit. They won't let it run. Disable them before starting. Same for antispyware programs. Firewalls might mess with ADB and cable communications.

You're most likely in the failed cyanogenmod recovery.

As long as your phone isn't plugged into your computer or flashing anything currently, try pulling the battery.

Can anyone give me advice on how to fix Clockwork recovery issues?

I tried following the fix posted by Bubby, but Visionary won't get past "temproot" and gives me a black screen....

I need the Recovery to patch the superuser error, or is there another way to do it?

should i redo the whole one-click process?

help please?
[HTC Inspire 4G] moe3754:
If you are attempting to boot into recovery it is power and hold Volume DOWN to get into it plus make sure that fastboot in Application's is unchecked. If it is still a black screen then the only fix that I have seen for this is here.

This is something that some say is dangerous but I have done it and had no problem at all, plus I can now flash new radio updates to my phone. I have had no problem's at all after doing it and the process took less time than it did to download it.I can only say do it at your own risk even though I do not see one.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Try this: Go to settings>applications>manage applications

click the "delete cache" button.

Next, restart the phone and start ROM Manager. You SHOULD be able to give it SU permissions. If so, use it to flash the latest (3.0.0.6) version of clockworkmod.

If THAT doesn't work, try Bubby's program again, because you *may* not have actual SU permissions yet. His new version includes the new SuperUser you'll want anyways. ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
LOL. I'm so glad you caught that!! I completely missed something so simple! :D

Yes, reboot holding volume DOWN to get to recovery. Not UP! :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
Working on the main script at the moment, this is about to get a whole lot more automated in time, for the release the directions are being re-written and I am also going to include the ENG S-OFF tool in the program, for those with the "failed" clockwork recovery. Clockwork is executing, the problem is its not being shown, this is fixed with the ENG S-OFF. I will also be reverting back to the old superuser, since this one seems to be giving you all more trouble than the last one. Lastly, I have not abandoned the website I am making, it's still full steam ahead, for this simple root that is. Everything will come in due time, just have some patience I really don't have the Inspire, even though it would make it 10 times easier if I did. ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
ENG S-Off will be an optional fix, correct? And did you read to include my big red message in the last page... x]
[HTC Inspire 4G] ah_hin:
Installed 3.0.0.6, but still gives me the hTc screen after rebooting, I guess I will wait for Bubby's new version and try again later.

Hi Bubby,

Not knowing that enabling HSUPA may cause some speed issues, I have used your first release (optional - HSUPA button)

to enable it.:( NOW I would like to revert this without going trough whole rooting process again.

I would appreciate if you have some advise how to do it. I know that this setting is written in "buildprop" file (5-6 lines), but I am afraid to do anything without developer's advise.

BTW, any idea which AT&T HSPA settings would be the best for good throughput and speed (download)?

Thanks in advance,

Bob
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Make sure you have the USB debugging enabled and fastboot disabled, and that you are in CHARGE-ONLY mode.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Wolf:
You need a program like Root Explorer to change the read/write permissions of the system file build.prop. It is the fourth line down. "ro.ril.hsxpa=3". If it = 3 then HSUPA is enabled. If it is changed to =1 then it is back to the stock setting. After making a change, the file needs to be saved. Make a backup of anything before you modify.
