is their a fix for the built in radio without having to upgrade to 5.0??
[HTC Inspire 4G] Larz_Plummer:
Wow. This ROM is wonderful! Thanks for the hard work all.

[HTC Inspire 4G] :
A little disappointed here, no update from 4.9 Download? And with this Rom I am losing 2% of my batter or more every minute. What is up with that?
[HTC Inspire 4G] redlinux:
There will be one when Sergio is done. Patience my friend.

Also, I am getting the best Battery consumption with 2% every 6 hours on stand by. Check your Accounts & Syncs and running apps as well. Radio version can also influence battery so double check as well.

is there a fix for the built in radio without having to upgrade to 5.0?? to fix the no audio issue?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Camaros_Kill:
Which radio are you running???
[HTC Inspire 4G] carmaruti:
Thank you so much

I am sure your zip will help lot of people who are not fan of launchkey and want the default behavior back... Sergio should make this optional in his ROM to use Launchkey, not sure if it can be done progamatically.

well my bigger issue is with fonts, I will surely try your suggestion but do u really think by adjusting the size it will help? The size is fine on 5.0 just the characters are all blurry as compared to 4.9....

I hope your suggestion work on 5.0 I am so dying to use it but this font thing is keeping me away....
[HTC Inspire 4G] redlinux:
See my sig.

Another thing that I can suggest is to flash the Desire HD Stock fonts zip file. Everything is pretty stock and the only thing that's overlapping is the Lock screen. In the Lock screen, the Carrier name is positioned correctly but the Date and Time are a bit off at the bottom. That's okay for since I don't get to see the Lock screen often. If you can live with that then you can go ahead and try it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dbaser:
Flash the full version of 5.0 over the top of 4.9... FM Radio works using this method.
[HTC Inspire 4G] carmaruti:
Thanks you @redlinux

Where can I download the stock fonts zip? Also Sergio said he is fixing this issue, for folks using English as language this is a major headache... I understand Sergio is trying to help and restore other languages... but in doing that something got screwed up in English Font.... Its so nice on 4.9...

Sergio do u plan on putting patch release to fix this soon?

Thanks

[HTC Inspire 4G] sprhr0:
still cant figure out why my internet access isnt working when connected to wifi.. Do I need to flash a different radio?
[HTC Inspire 4G] redlinux:
Flash via CWM Recovery.

You have to use the LaunchKey app that is found in your app drawer. By default, the Customize button is no longer mapped to the Personalize Menu. You have to configure it to your liking through the LaunchKey app.

Try to do another Full Wipe then install v5.0 Full ROM. You can also try to change Radio version. Try to flash the radio as in my Sig.
[HTC Inspire 4G] luar949:
im on v4.9 to install the circle battery do i just download it via rom manager on recovery??
[HTC Inspire 4G] qbills314:
dsp manager

has anyone noticed a difference when using this or is there something you have to do to get it working

when i used it in the miui rom i noticed difference
[HTC Inspire 4G] redlinux:
Flash the zip file via Clockworkmod Recovery.
[HTC Inspire 4G] subtlesti:
I wasn't saying this rom would brick the bootloader, i was just saying i've had it happen on another rom and i had to basically redo the root to recover it. I love this rom its one of the most dependable ones ive tried so far.
[HTC Inspire 4G] hernandez3674:
Same here.
[HTC Inspire 4G] moe3754:
If you do not like it that way there was a post earlier that had the zip file to put it back the way it was, post 2006 I believe. I did it and it is now as it was before.

Before someone ask, you just flash it like you were doing a rom from recovery.
[HTC Inspire 4G] redlinux:
Flash via CWM Recovery.

Weather Updates how LONG?

OK here is my story.... After forcing myself to LOVE 5.0 ROM (applied all patches, flashed HD Desire Stock ROM) etc etc.... I am going back to 4.9

I did a full wipe using wipe 1.3, then installed 4.8, then applied 4.9 patch.... The phone is back in 4.9 and working great.

I just have one problem now the weather widget is not showing weather, all it shows is time....

Please help... now sure where to go from here... does it take long time to update weather???? it use to work fine before I had 4.9 and decided wanted to try 5.0....

Thanks guys... I am done playing with ROMS I am sticking wiht 4.9 until there is a rom that fixes the font issues......

Please answer my weather questions
[HTC Inspire 4G] redlinux:
Give it sometime to settle first. I've read posts wherein it took hours for people to get the exact location in HTC Weather Widget.

Also, just a follow up. Which Language did you choose? That will also affect your location.
[HTC Inspire 4G] carmaruti:
I choose English (American)

I thought Spare Parts only alters the font size within the spare parts App?

still on 4.8

seems like the most stable and best one
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Lol Wildcargo, you should read before you flash and take all of the necassary precautions before doing so.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Ultra Droid:
I just installed v5.0 and really like it. Coming from Cyanogen 7, RC3 it was quite a change (for the better) and I'm glad I changed. Thanks for creating a really cool rom.

Just a FYI,

After I installed CD last week my upload speed went from 1000+ to 300 regardless of the radio. So I was poking around in the build.prop file and noticed hsupa was not enabled.

I edited the file and my upload speed went back up to 1000+

Don't know if It's supposed to be enabled in cd or not.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Doo Doo:
where in the build.prop do you check to see if hsupa is enabled ?
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
There is a line like this:

ro.ril.hsupa.category

I changed mine to 7 and it was at 6

After that change my upload went from 300 to 1000+ with a decent connection.

Anyone else having an issue powering off the phone? Every time I try to turn it off it goes into recovery.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scabes24:

[HTC Inspire 4G] Kizzmiazz:
I just installed and powers off fine for me. When I install a rom : I wipe dalvik, wipe cache , factory data reset and also do the 1.3 Full Wipe.zip . I know its over kill and dont know if this is why mine doesnt do it. But tried a few times and powering off works perfect.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ultravorx:
I've noticed this "problem" as well. But its not from powering it off only.

It only goes into recovery if you power it off, THEN plug in your charger.

I kind of like this feature, its like a backup in case you need to get into recovery quickly.

It shouldn't affect most users since most people charge with the phone on.

I always thought this was a positive feature!

[HTC Inspire 4G] SNadler:
I am not sure how or why but I have had two instances now where the Nandroid backup has failed. Once with a backup of 4.9 MD5 mismatch wont restore and once now with 5.0 same error when i try to restore. I went to a backup of 4.8 and it was fine and then to a Revolution backup that was fine. I am reflashing 5.0 now again.

Has there been any other reports of this? This is the first time I have had an error with CWM and I have had it twice.....:)

Worked flawlessly 30 or 40 times at least. I just reflashed 5.0 and I am doing a backup now to test it to see if it reoccurs.....

Have you seen this before? Just a fluke?

iPhone looking shourtcuts

On the screen shots, there are those some shortcuts on the home screen with multimedia, internet, games and so on.

Where can i get them? Are those built-in in current rom? or it add on to rom or software from Market?
[HTC Inspire 4G] SNadler:
I do not know what the deal is but it is not the rom.

I did a full wipe again

reinstalled full version of 5.0

set it up with a few apps

did a nandroid backup

rebooted

restored backup from SD card

Restored and booted no issue

All Normal! I do not know what happened on the other two backups?

Normally I boot to CWM by means of Rom Manager which gives you the option to name your backup. It is possible that I did those by means of CWM (Going directly to CWM with ADB) which does not allow you enter a name. It just starts and assigns it a name (number) and then I changed the name later on? Not sure. I am also not sure if this would cause a MD5 mismatch?

Always a concern if a backup does not work 100% of the time until I find a cause.

Your thoughts?:)
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
My back up and restore all worked perfectly for me.

I don't see what could be going wrong :o.

Even when I do boot into CWM I'm given theoption to name my backup and etc.

What's Next for CoreDroid Roms

Sergio, Can you give us a quick preview on things you guys are working on for the next release of CoreDroid? I am hoping resolving Font issues is one of them :)...

I am currently running 4.9 and oh baby this runs just fine....

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] carmaruti:
Use Titanium Backups

And they just work fine... Never used Nandroid Backup? is this an app? Whats the difference between TB and Nandroid Backup?
[HTC Inspire 4G] gtalum:
A nandroid backup is the kind of backup that clockwork mod will do for you. It makes a full exact copy of your current ROM which you can restore if you have problems with the new ROM you flash or if you just decide you don't like it. Upon restore, your phone will look exactly like it did when you make the backup.
[HTC Inspire 4G] proof2006:
Awesome rom guys blazing fast. Getting do speeds of 4183 and up 1687. Stock rooted speeds were 1300/300
[HTC Inspire 4G] carmaruti:
Thank you for the information

Yes I had to do that since I upgraded to 5.0 and had to downgrade to 4.9 using the backup from CWM.... Now I know its called nandroid backup :)

Btw will it delete all files related to 5.0 and take you back to 4.9 exactly the way it was before upgrade assuming you are going from 5.0 to 4.9....

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] gtalum:
Yes, restoring a nandroid backup will completely wipe your ROM and restore the old one. It will be just like you never flashed the new ROM.
[HTC Inspire 4G] SNadler:
Thanks,

When I boot into CWM 3.0.0.6 and go to backup as soon as I hit backup current rom the back up starts and completes.

I will continue this in General section as it is not rom related anymore....:)

Rom has been working without a hitch! Thanks Guys!
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Is anyone using this Rom with a Bluetooth hands free setup in their car?

Since I installed people have been commenting on the increased static and echo when I call them using Bluetooth.

Tried several different radios but none really made a diff, now back on ATT stock radio.

I did on 4.9 and had no problem. I will try 5.0 later today. Have you tried the radio in my signature below?

[HTC Inspire 4G] californiarailroader:
Carmaruti, are you still having any WiFi Sensitivity issues? I do, but it's far less than before, I think eventually they'll have this thing licked! Oh, did you flash the stock Desire HD Fonts Redhat posted? They are so much better, now my eyes don't feel like they're out of focus lol
[HTC Inspire 4G] carmaruti:
@ California

I did all I could to stick with 5.0 I agree flashing Desire HD Fonts improved quality a bit but still its not as sharp in 4.9.. Email is critical for my work so I moved back to 4.9 until this is resolved in next releases of ROM....
[HTC Inspire 4G] carmaruti:
@California

Am just amazed that there are only few of us talking about this out of focus fonts in 5.0... Is this a issues with only our phones? That would suck or others are getting use to the out of focus and dont care....

I flashed 5.0 this morning and reinstalled Touchdown which is what I use to get my mail from exchange server 2003. I am not seeing any fuzzy fonts. I would like the text to be larger but that is just my old eyes as I need reading glasses! LOL Any recommendation for Larger Fonts throughout would be appreciated. Old BB had that option. Only thing I do miss about it.

The text is clear and sharp in my email, sms, and internet.

Here is a screen shot of a mail page that I opened.

Where are you seeing the fuzzy fonts?:)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Sean3:
Legendindisquise, if you wouldn't mind, try something for me. Go to settings-date and time and uncheck "automatic". Then set your date to say March 27 and power off. Let me know if it stays off or reboots. Then set it back to automatic and power off again.

P.S. what radio do you have installed?
[HTC Inspire 4G] redlinux:
Try the following:

* Download Faster Fix and set the NTP Server to your region

* Download GPS Status

* Run GPS Status > Menu > Tools > Manage A-GPS State > Reset

* Run GPS Status > Menu > Tools > Manage A-GPS State > Download

* Rung GPS Status again until you get a GPS lock

It's called "Folder Organizer" from the Market.

Nandroid backups are far more easy to use than TBs. On the event that you are not able to boot up your phone but can still go into Bootloader then you can always restore your ROM to a saved nandroid backup.

The fonts are surely being seen by everyone. It's just that one may prefer a larger font perhaps as compared to another. :)

Font Issues

In my touchdown when I open the mail the fonts are clear, but when you go to inbox and get a new mail that is bold and highlighted the font on that are blurry. Can u confirm this on your end? I compared this between 4.9 and 5.0 and there is a big difference, 4.9 been better.
[HTC Inspire 4G] redlinux:
Open Messages app > Settings > Notifications > Sent Notification should be unchecked.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Sean3:
Open your messages app, hit menu, select settings, and choose "notifications". Look and see if the "sent notification" box is checked.

Edit: Redlinux beat me to it
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Yes, I tried that one as well as the TELUS one plus a couple of others. It's not a huge deal as I don't use it that much.

I am on 4.9 by the way.

Could be something in the kernel that does not like the Kenwood Bluetooth adapter.
[HTC Inspire 4G] NeedleRat:
Excellent, that was it. Although I could use more coffee.

Many thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] legendindisguise:
Tried what you have said and the phone shuts down. But if I plug in the phone to charge it, it goes into recovery mode. I'm using Radio 12.41.60.19_26.06.04.14_M. I just flashed this radio two days ago, however the same issue was going on with the stock AT&T radio before.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Sean3:
It's suppose to go into recovery if you power off while plugged in. But from what I understand you saying is that it will go into recovery after you've plugged in without having powered off? If so, the same has happened a couple of times to me in addition the reboot when powered off while not charging. This isn't a problem specific to this rom. It seems to be a fubar in bootloader. I've searched around and it seems people all over are having this occur within the last few days. No solution just yet.
[HTC Inspire 4G] moe3754:
This is the first Desire that I have owned that has ever went into recovery when I turn it off and plug it into charge, my original Desire and my Desire Z never did that. Also a few rom's back it stopped doing it, but unfortunately there have been so many lately I do not remember which one it was.
[HTC Inspire 4G] legendindisguise:
I appreciate all the info so quickly. I have been reading for the past few days and couldn't really find anything, maybe just me. That's the only odd thing is the phone will be powered off, then I plug it into the charger and about 10 seconds later recovery mode appears. It's not a huge concern, was just curious.

I read months back that its a bug/feature in CWM, I am pretty sure if you ask anyone on pure stock it doesnt happen.

[HTC Inspire 4G] moe3754:
If by pure stock you mean the rooted AT&T rom, yes it does because that is when it started with me and has carried over to coredroid, all except that one rom a week or so ago when it did not do it at all. I guess I will have to load some rom's to see what one it was.

Update: I have loaded every rom back to 4.7 and I loaded 3.3 and they all do it so it had to be before 4.7, the one thing I do remember is that the rom that did not do it, did not have U.S. English because it was the one and only rom that I had to use morelocale 2 on, oh well I give up on it.

1st let me say. I did do a rom backup... But the trouble im expieriencing is when i open the rom to go back to the backup... I get the application rom manager has stopped unexpectedly everytime. So i was wondering is it a way to do a back up from that with out opening the program that way. Pretty sure there may be a simple way to do it. Also this 5.0. version seems ok but i have been also expieriencing a few sticks and lags of switching screens here and there. Is there any conclusion on that ? Of o missed a post with any explanation sorry bout that but i have been reading the good and not so good responses from ppl. But i still like to see if things fit me..
[HTC Inspire 4G] Meercy:
ok... silly me.. i found the restore from power down... on back to the old setup i go.. sorry..
[HTC Inspire 4G] redlinux:
Okay so you have successfully did a Nandroid Backup at one point so that's sitting somewhere in the "clockworkmod" folder in your SD Card. Try to reflash your clockworkmod recovery. In this example, we would assume that you had the Clockworkmod Recovery 2.5.1.3 and it went bad.

* Open ROM Manager > All ClockworkMod Recoveries

* Select 3.0.0.6 and flash it (this will upgrade your CWM Recovery to 3.0.0.6)

* Again open ROM Manager > All ClockworkMod Recoveries

* Select 2.5.1.3 this time and flash it (this will dowgrade your CWM Recovery back to 2.5.1.3

* Reboot your phone

* Open ROM Manager > Manage and Restore Backups

* Select the Nandroid Backup that you made previously and see if it loads successfully

Also, make sure that the ROM Manager has superuser access. Probably, it's one of the rare reasons that it will fail. Let us know how it goes.

EDIT: If you have found a working solution then disregard this post.
