You must do this with a Sense based ROM first. Do this update then flash your nandroid of CM7.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosympathy:
I was going to do this, but my understanding was the moment u flash another rom it undoes this, unless that is just from flashing another sense rom?

Right off that post "-All credit to original finder of this fix, i am just passing it along and found the speed increase. Also when you flash a new rom it will back to old settings so remember to re-apply and it wont make you more vulnerable to anything."

Was flashing dilli's 6.0 and my screen went black.....I left it alone for 10 minutes or more with no change. Three button recovery worked but whenever I pick any zip it fails with: E:Failure at line 9:copy_dir PACKAGE:system installation aborted.

Tried my previous ROM and the update.zip without success.

What should I do now?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr3amCast:
Get the phone into download mode and flash it back to stock with Odin3. Then try the flash again. I don't think a MasterClear would be necessary, but wouldn't hurt.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaximumPotential:
if you dont want to use odin try using the wipe and factory reset option in cwm recovery before flashing the zip. If that dosent work then odin is pretty much your only choice

[HTC Inspire 4G] King Shady:
Ok I'm having a very annoying issue on my Inspire 4G. The phone recognizes my home wifi network and goes in a loop trying to connect and then reconnect. I have several other devices connecting to the wifi flawlessly - (iMac, iPad, Xbox, etc). Does the Inspire just get weak wifi signal strength, or is there something wrong with my phone? I'm considering returning it to get the Atrix. I also know other people have commented saying that they have this issue also. Is there a fix? Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] gtg465x:
Had this problem. Went into wifi settings and clicked on the access point that it was trying to connect to. It asked me for my credential storage password or something (different than access point password) and after typing that in all has been well ever since.

A friend of mine has the evo and i put miui on his phone and likes it but he needs 4g wimax. What rom is a good "total package" (has wimax radio, good battery, snappy, etc.) He doesnt care about overclocking, benchmarks, etc. He just had horrible lag/batt life with stock.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sekigah84:
If he likes the MIUI interface (iphone resemblance) it will be hard pressed to find anything closer than AOSP atm. If you want 4G, you must use a Sense based ROM or CM7 w/4G. Namely gginggerbread-6.

As for the top sense based ROMs, you want to check out MikFroyo and Myn's Warm 2.2.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayjr1105:
He just likes the speed and battery life he is getting with miui compared to stock. Not neccesarily the look
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
I personally would suggest CM7 with WiMax [gingerbread 6].
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bamba1260:
I agree with Mikfroyo 4.5 for a sense rom. Its a great rom, really fast, and has 4g. Plus there are a bunch of mods and a few themes. As far as an aosp rom the cm7 with wimax is also a great choice. He should just come and look around if he is interested as there are many options.

[HTC Inspire 4G] tmt64:
I'm thinking about upgrading to the HTC Inspire. I don't want to get a data plan because I get wifi 90% of the day (at home and on campus).

My dad is the only person in our family plan who has a data plan. Can he use my upgrade to purchase the Inspire for his line and then switch SIM cards with me? Will he still be able to use his own upgrade for himself in the near future?

I read that AT&T can detect which phone people are using by IMEI. However I've used my Nokia E71 for the past year (upgraded online without a data plan, don't know why it didn't force me) and have been using an iPhone 3G (not mine initially) for a couple of months with no data plan and haven't been caught yet.
[HTC Inspire 4G] RacerX10:
I've been doing exactly that for years, no problems yet and I hope to do the same thing with Inspire when my upgrade is available next month.
[HTC Inspire 4G] metaldood:
Inspire 4G is AT&T branded phone. They have all the IMEI numbers. E71 unlocked is non branded one so you can go unnoticed w/o a data plan.

Rest assured Inspire will popup as a smart phone and you will be upgraded.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tmt64:
Will we have to go to an AT&T store in person so my dad can use my upgrade or can we do this online somehow?

@metaldood, Sorry, I meant E71x, the AT&T branded version of the E71.

There's always a chance that AT&T will find out and force a data plan on me, but I'll try hide for as long as I can. B)
[HTC Inspire 4G] RacerX10:
That's what everybody said would happen to my Tilt 2 a couple years ago, hasn't happened yet.
[HTC Inspire 4G] RBDH:
Must be nice:D. I installed my sim card, turned on the phone and went to At&t's site to see that it had already updated my phone on there. That of course doesn't mean it was completely updated in their system yet.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ufgrat:
I went from an HTC Fuze (AT&T branded) to a Motorola Milestone (Telus), without any problems, and AT&T never noticed... within about 5 minutes of putting my 3G sim into the Inspire 4G, my (3G) data plan was gone from my account... this after it was re-added by the sales rep.

They don't seem to care if you switch one 3G device for another, but they seem to be policing the 4G phones pretty hard.

Note that after a discussion with the sales rep, he was able to re-add my unlimited data plan as a "4G unlimited data plan".

So, if you do nothing and just hook up the Inspire with your existing sim, chances are you'll be exactly where you want to be-- You'll have voice, and no mobile data (wi-fi still works, though). ;)

If you want to use someone else's data plan (and sim), they'll have to get an AT&T rep to change their plan from "3G only" to "4G compatible", which does seem to be backwards compatible... ie, I can use my sim in my old Milestone no problem.
[HTC Inspire 4G] RBDH:
I've noticed this also. I got my inspire on my wife's upgrade and they changed her line to the 4g unlimited. No problems with it on her cappy. Even though the site had changed my phone from a iphone to the inspire right away I still had the iphone unlimited data plan. (I really should've got a screen cap of that). Was interesting seeing the inspire pic and a message saying that I had to have the iphone unlimited plan with my phone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] MatUK.8:
AT&T will notice and put the data plan on your account. It started sometime in the past year where you couldn't have a smart phone without the data plan. I had a BB curve that I could use without data because I had it before they required data.
[HTC Inspire 4G] AnyMal:
If you disabled your data before September 2009 (IIRC) then you're grandfathered into data block. Only the phones purchased/activaed after that date require a mandatory data plan.
[HTC Inspire 4G] metaldood:
So wait if I pop in my Dumbphone sim with unlimited plan , I can still keep it? ;)

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XfooYen:
There is a safe nandroid restore of a clean stock install in the dev section. It will not turn S on. Go to the dev section, it is in a sticky called "resource bible". The link is called "stock nandroid restore". Download the file from the links op and use it to perform a nandroid restore. You will then have a blank slate with S on.

hmmm gonna try it

but i was looking for a zip rom thats stock. then going thew the whole nano restore. i Did a nano restore before and it didnt do anything. it Just went to the mytouch screen. then stayed there. I then put the S back on and then did a nano restore and it worked. But i was wondering if theres anyone with a zip stock version. like that i can zip different roms and if i dont like em. i can always go back directly to stock. with out going threw the process of visionary and terminal em.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XfooYen:
The restore I referred to will not break root and will allow you to flash roms. They're is a zip restore in the same section but that one does revert your bootloader so it essentially breaks root. The nand restore won't break root. The reason you were stuck at the loading screen is probably due to the version of clockwork recovery you have installed. You either need version 2.0.5.2 or the newest version 3.0.0.6 for the nandroid to work. Clockwork recovery v3.0.0.6 will let you flash between froyo and gingerbread roms so I suggest using that one. I'll bet you're on v3.0.0.2 or 3.0.0.5. Those versions won't boot froyo roms or nand restores.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blizzard1017:
So I thought there was a thread on this but I can't find it.

What is the actual behind the scenes difference in the Roms being put out besides theming?

I don't want a "this rom is better" answer, that's not what this is about. I don't want to disrespect anyones work, I am just curious as to what each team/person does different to post so many Roms. From the uneducated eye(mine) one would think you would post one Rom per team and then post the rest in the theme section.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcontrol:
They usually have the details on the first post, a lot of them explain what the variants are all about.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
I am not totally up on the roms in the last week or so, But, all the roms will be using KA5,6 or 7 kernel and or KB1 (K=2011, A= Jan 5= 5th day etc.). That said some are structured to be faster removing some of the misc small routines, overclocked, or expanded memory. Some have as internal ram @ 300-310mb, some 335-340mb, some 350-360mb. Now, that may be important if you are gaming with the phone but, for most things not much change will be noticed if any. Some use Supercurio based, some use morfic based, some use Eugene based kernels or some just customized based on a bit of each or their own cooking.

The real crux is do ALL the things that are expected to work ,,,, work. E.G. Phone, WIFI, Bluetooth, Stereo, headphones, mp3-4 player, facebook, battery, twitter, mms, email, syncing, camera, both video and snapshot, GPS....etc. Now if All those are equal, then the theming and some of the other special touches are trademark of a given developer.

Some roms are just better structured and allow more altering than others, those would be the Axura, Einherjar roms and some of the Team Whiskey roms.

The reason why some will say this rom is great and that one I think has more to do with the date it was built. The problem with all the phones is the parts and sub assemblies are subbed out. So, July 2010 might work flawlessly for one rom but not the other and one phone made in Nov 2010 might be vice-versa

So, all the Long Winded diatribe above it comes down to this, it really is personal choice and the phone you have and how the custom rom works on that phone. The only real 2 differences I have seen with all the roms as distinct is the Axura has remarkable battery life and the rom has a great GPS fresh out of a new flash, other than that, I found no differences in anything else.

But remember that is just my studied observation from my 2 Vibrants.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blizzard1017:
Yea, I guess i should further explain, this isn't to see which rom I want. I am not new to flashing so I have a general familiarity to all of them. I more just wanted to further my education on the actual behind the scenes aspects of these Roms and what the developers actually DO to make their Rom THEIR Rom besides custom themes.

To further your point though and also back up my question lets look at axuras change log. most of it consists of theme this or that update programs remove this or that. Then a tiny "framework tweak" "build.prop mod" is thrown in.

Specifically I was asking what do the devs do different in that area which I am assuming is the basis of the whole rom correct?

Also, I am not speaking of the miui or cm7 type ports but more of axura, bionix, trigger ect... all that are usually upgraded to the same kernals and modem in their roms anyway.

This mod needs to be made using the specific framework-res.apk that is in the rom you have. You can't even use the same file for an incremental rom update, ie if you were on Cyanogen 6, you couldn't use it for 6.1 even on the same device.

[HTC Inspire 4G] pendo:
Oh man, you must be a newbie! This is an incredibly popular modification made to the standard battery level indicator in your status bar. Instead of a normal rectangle battery, we use a circle that "empties" as charge level decreases. Also there's the percent of full charge displayed in the center of the circle, and is done in 1% increments. Then while the battery is charging, we animate that. There are quite a few different styles but they're all variations on the same idea. I've made several different versions of this myself, and have a pretty large thread in the Nexus One forum (link in my sig). Here's the charge animation on the file I've linked to in the op, although it runs *much* quicker on the phone (and looks way better, too)

Glad you waited :)

Wow, that thread looks a little dicey. So is that what you have installed now? I'd have to spend a little time researching a bit more to find out how/if this would work. In any case, it would have to be built using your framework-res.apk, so the one in the op shouldn't work.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
Oh neat! looks awsome. I'd add it in a second if I didn't have to do a full restore and re-Rom to get the indicator, ehehehe... guess I'll have to wait till next time I want to restore... takes too long to re flash, then restore my apps, icon placements, and get everything just how I like it.
