[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
For future reference please post questions like this in the general disscussion thread.

As far as what Rom is best. That is a hard question what's best for one person might not be for the next. My advice would be just to give them all a shot, and see which one is best for you or which one suits you best.

Edit: you can see what has been changed or the differences from the change log. Currently all the roms are being updated frequently as well as one on one support with the beta team and/or developers.

Hope this helps.

Core Droid Version 4 Nuff said.

Has everything you want and much more, just back up, wipe and try it you do not like it you can always do a restore.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
a) It's Gingerbread?

b) No audio issues?

c) What's the best way to backup\restore so i don't have to reposition and create all my app arrangement and folders?

d) It's HTC Sense, right?

Thanks!

desire hd coredroid v4 for inspire 4g VS stock rom.

Personally I know that the stock rom to date has best battery life with setcpu.

I am using coredroid and it is very nice, but of course, it has terrible battery drain. 5-10% drain every 45 min.

It would be nice to have a custom kernel or some fix because it is a great rom, the looks and layout is nice.

It does have a fuzzy speaker sound .

I would suggest staying stock for a week or two, until the devs work out the bugs.

There is always a fix for most everything.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
Thanks for the tips, yeah I was afraid of the battery drain. I was afraid it might be an issue. The battery is already bad with Stock ROM, I can't imagine it being any worse... 10% every 45 mins, yikes, that's a battery in 8 hours... lol.

I thought the speaker audio issue was resolved. Is this still not the case in 4.0?
[HTC Inspire 4G] moe3754:
A Yes

B No

C rom manager Back up current rom

D Yes

As for application's I always do a clean install that way I know everything is right, not like it is all that hard to do.

My battery is lasting a complete day with this rom.

As for sound issues, people think that this is a large home speaker, it is a phone and the speaker works just fine. I listen to Pandora for three to four hours and it is fine for me.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
Why would you do a clean install if you don't have to? Seems annoying to have to re-download and re-position apps every time a ROM is flashed.

A complete day for most is less than 12 hours... and if a phone lasts 12 hours sitting unused, it's really not ideal. Considering most people have a hard time getting a full day out of the Inspire 4G even without Mod's, I really don't want to change to anything that'll give me less battery than I already have, hehe.

I wish you luck my friend but this thread belongs in general, not development.

Sent from Desire HD or Inspire 4G or whatever this thing is called via premium XDA app.
[HTC Inspire 4G] moe3754:
Because the Dev's say to do a clean wipe if you read the post from them and did I not say Pandora for three to four hours, not exactly unused, plus calls that I receive??? Plus do what you want you asked I responded as for anything else I could care less, it is working fine for me.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
Calm down...

Speaker Issue: You can say it's a small speaker all you want, but it's still a quality speaker, and the digitized sounding issue was a major issue to me when the first ROMs came out. I don't expect surround sound and bass, but the stock ROM doesn't sound at all digitized\tinny.

Sorry I missed the Pandora comment. Not sure how you stream 3-4 hours a day without a recharge, considering that time of streaming would beat what the phone's battery and radio are capable of doing, but hey, more power to ya.

And for the record, the expression is "I couldn't care less" ... :-) People who say "I could care less" are just repeating improper usage of the english language rather than thinking about what they're saying.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
Incorrect. This is a development question. "General" is designed for things like "What speeds are you getting..." kinda thing. Anything ROM related goes in Dev.
[HTC Inspire 4G] NikolaiT:
Wrong. any question goes in the Q&A subforum.
[HTC Inspire 4G] baronmax:
Have you done the battery reset procedure to ensure that your battery is being used to its full extent after installing the new ROM? If not, that may be your issue.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
Battery reset procedure?!?!?!

Is that like those pieces of tin foil that used to "protect" me from my phone's radiation back in the 90's? LOL

Do explain, or provide link please....
[HTC Inspire 4G] BB2DX:
Try something new

If you are really looking for AUDIO, give MIUI a shot. I have tried every ROM out there for the phone and I always end up with either Android Revolution 4 or MIUI. I like sense a lot, thus the AR4. But I often flash over to MIUI because the customizations are great, the themes are fun to play with, and the audio is louder than stock. Battery life is good, not quite stock but not as poor as CM7.

I would also try CM7. Fastest ROM out there, but ASOP reminds my of my old droid x and I can't do that anymore. Neither MIUI nor CM7 are sense and you must install an alternate home launcher if you want scrollable widgets.

My final $.02- try them all. With back ups from ROM manager, you can have several on your sd card!

Sorry, guess I should have done that to begin with, here's the link.

Rchdmix v3.4 works good for lots of people
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
Any gingerbread rom right now is going to have battery drain. It is a leaked version from htc, and the source hasn't been released, so there isn't and custom kernel support for it. Modified stock is good, but honestly the battery life on a modified stock isn't going to be nearly as good as a rom based on 1.8X built by Sergio or Mike. Depending on what your doing you on the phone the drain is anywhere from 256-350ish ma, while in standby it stays around 4-6ma on say Android Revolution v3.1 or Coredroid v3.2. In call audio after flashing the sound fix is not going to be stock but it is going to be very close. There will be a sound boost on the outside speaker, so it will be easier to hear it ring. Make sure when you flash the sound fix after flashing a rom or a radio that you wipe the cache and devilk cache.

If ginger bread is what your looking for I would wait, if customization, performance and battery life are what your looking for flash AR v3.1 or Coredroid v3.2

I am not going to tell you how long the battery lasts when I use it cause how much I use my phone may be quite a bit different from how you use your phone, so to say that it lasts so many hour when I do this or that is trivial. But it is certainly longer then stock.

As to what section this should be posted in, it should be general since it's a question, and we have no Q&A section. Development is mainly for ROMS and Fixes, and Themes in apps are mainly for themes, apps, splash screens and boot animations.

Keep in mind you can give all the roms a whirl, as long as you make a nandroid back up with cwm you can flash any rom you like, and if you don't like it then use your nandroid backup to return to exactaly how your phone is right now.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jc2470:
I see some people commenting on how bad battery drain is. Is it really that bad for you? Did you have the captivate prior to this phone? My battery last me all day and into the next day with wifi on. I text a good bit and surf the web. My captivate could barely last till I got off work, this phone I can go to work next day with it on same charge and charge during the day
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
Thanks, I'll give this process a whirl.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
Thank you. That looks like good advice, and your responses were well thought out and gave the upside and downside to each.

I'm REALLY particular about audio quality. When I first flashed Android Revolution the day after the phone came out it was REALLY tinny, like a1980s cordless phone.

How different from stock is this new fix built into Coredroid?

Also, with my stock ROM I'm only seeing about 12 hours of charge, tho I do text a lot and leave everything on (all the sync, 4 mail accounts, etc). Do you see a lot better than that?
[HTC Inspire 4G] gunnyman:
Bella it's safe to say the tinny audio bug is fixed. I haven't seen it on any ROM I've flashed, TurboniumX has a flashable fix that works on everything I've tried it on. I'm currently on Phunky Cow's CM7 build and am VERY happy with it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
Schweeet! I'm debating between CM7 and CoreDroid 4... any advice between the two? I want the max battery life possible. My sad little battery just goes so quick on my stock rooted rom, heheh
[HTC Inspire 4G] gunnyman:
Depends on how you feel about Sense. :D I don't care one way or another about it, for speed I love CM7. Haven't had battery complaints yet. I can go a day easy. I'm used to plugging my phone in before bed anyhow.

BTW I have a niece named Bella :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
I love Sense.... so does that lead me to one or the other? Which one has Sense built in?
[HTC Inspire 4G] gunnyman:
There is no Sense in Cyanogenmod.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
So I want CoreDroid ?
[HTC Inspire 4G] jiggajatt:
I believe cm7 has no sense and you want that right?

I'm debating between coredroid and revolution non gingerbread

I'm on revo 4 b1 and it sucks

Revo 3.1 was the best so far but I wanna try coredroid
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
yeah I want sense.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
Is there a non-gingerbread version of coredroid? seems like all the coredroids i see are gingerbread. I just don't want battery issues... no way to get gingerbread without batt issues?
[HTC Inspire 4G] palletguru:
I'm currently using LeeDroid 2.2.2. It's Froyo, can be overclocked to 1.8 (although I don't). Took my daughters to the zoo yesterday, and was shooting video, pics, and uploading to posterous the whole time. After about 7 hours, I was at 19%, but I would categorize this as very heavy use. I would say battery consumption is as good as or slightly better than stock.

Here's the post:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=991848

I dabbled with Gingerbread ROMS (CM7, CoreDroid, AR), and just couldn't get the battery life I needed for a normal day's work.

If you like sense, I would say LeeDroid should be on your list of ROMs to check out.
[HTC Inspire 4G] palletguru:
Also: Sound is great. Lee boosts his volume by 25%, so call quality is better than stock.

For a clean install, I put LeeDroid ROM 2.2.2, his kernel 2.6, and his DHD to Inspire patch where I could find them on my sd card. Booted into CWM, Wiped Data (factory reset), Wiped Dalvik (under Advanced), Flashed the ROM, then the kernel, then the patch.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Dwayne_Chapman:
Thanks a ton. I bought a Inspire off Craigslist and the wifi and GPS weren't working. I found out it had been rooted already and had CWM on it and the previous owner was unaware of it. I followed the directions for LEEDroid and everything works great now. Lucky for me it was already rooted cause I don't know how I would have done it on a Mac.

Very opinionated question.

Depends heavily on what you want the Rom to do.

so far I have tried the RcMix and Core Droid but for me its the TPGB rom love it has great tweaks not issue with audio stable fast... just a really good built rom..
[HTC Inspire 4G] assassinx9:
i used to only use CM7 because then it was the most customizable rom i could find. Until RCMix3D came out...i fell in love with sense 3.0. i Really love the lock screen, and have grown to the sense ui.

Roms are always personal preference though. got to try out a few and see which ones you like.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
There is no best rom. Just best for you. You best bet would be try them out and see what one you like best and works best for your device

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] regP:
Got my GF a MT4G last week. Its a great phone but I noticed one thing thats kind of bugging me. On my Vibrant when I plug into PC for mass storage mode both my internal and external memory show up. If I opened up any file manager it would start in mnt/sdcard (internal memory) and have a folder called ext-sd that would take me to the external sd card.

However on the MT4G, when you plug it into the PC for mass storage only the external SD shows up. And in file manager only the external sd card shows. Is this normal for the phone?

fyi, its running froyo 2.2.1 with root and s=OFF.

[Atrix 4G General] squassss:
I think there are tons of people on this forum that would disagree with you. I for one was an iphone user for 4 years and I will not go back. Why would you come to this forum of all places to recommend the IOS? Most people who are on this forum have already made up their minds about what phone to get. I found the biggest thing about switching from an iphone to android is that it's like wiping your butt with the opposite hand. If you have been doing it one way for so long you are highly resistant to move to a different tech or adjust to the way that tech works. IOS is plain, boring, and locked down. It's not much different than it was 4 years ago and apple spoon feeds options to users that should be standard from the beginning.
[Atrix 4G General] catfarm:
"...update all apps at ease (Android requires manually select each app to update automatically)"

Try going into the market, then pressing the menu key and then My Apps. You should see a link to Update All at the top if more than one app needs updating.
[Atrix 4G General] squarejp:
You have to turn on that otherwise some of the apps have to be updated manually. Did that before.....
[Atrix 4G General] catfarm:
I'm not sure what you are talking about, but I myself am coming from an iphone 3gs, this is my first android, and as far as I can tell the two update their apps in almost an identical manner in terms of number of clicks to update all the apps that need updates. I haven't changed anything from default and have not had to manually change anything in each app to make it part of the update all functionality.
[Atrix 4G General] squarejp:
I'm just comparing and responding to another user who is deciding between iPhone 4 and Atrix. That's the comment I provide.
[Atrix 4G General] galaxyjeff:
Android is nice as the op stated however it's still not as refined as Apple's iOS is and apple is quickly improving their os and it's easily available when released thru iTunes or visiting a local apple store if you don't have a desktop or laptop and high speed Internet. I think google may need to start making huge changes if they want to have people be happy with android. Starting with requiring manufacturers to make updates available to each device as the updates are released.
[Atrix 4G General] tomit12:
We'll go ahead and forget for the moment that for all of the ways which make iOS just so much better, it is still being outsold by Android, with the gap growing every day.
[Atrix 4G General] robstunner:
That's not the best comparison. Apple has 4 models sold so far.android had like 4 a week.
[Atrix 4G General] ikenley:
Agree, Android's update cycle is so exciting and fast, it just takes manufacturers too long to roll out those updates. The Atrix was announced after gingerbread was released, but it came with Froyo.

But in all honesty Android is far better at content creation and not just content consumption. Apple users are such well trained monkeys that they will pay $1 for a flashlight app when a Dev with some decent skills and passion for the platform will release it for free.

My wife is nowhere near as tech savvy as I am, but she lives her Desire Z and finds it easier to use than her iPhone 3gs, but this could also be due to HTC Sense.

[Atrix 4G General] Rezznor:
Quickly? It's been 4 years and iOS has barely changed.
[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
To clarify, you can change each individual app to update automatically which means you will never have to do anything OR you can go into the Market and just select "Update All" at the top. I had an iphone and you either had to update on itunes and then sync your phone or you had to go to the app store in your phone and select "Update all" but with Android, if you take the 2 or 3 minutes to select the automatic feature, you won't have to do anything, so I think Android WINS that round, sheesh. Plus, that's just splitting hairs.
[Atrix 4G General] galaxyjeff:
The part about the $1 flashlight app you say is total bologna. The best flashlight app in the app store is totally free and gets regular updates. Also android is a toy with a cute little green robot. :)
[Atrix 4G General] PixoNova:
Go bite an Apple, OP. It's obvious you have no clue what you're even saying. If you did, you'd realize that you're sooooo wrong about nearly everything.

Also, I don't know if you're from a different country, but if you're going to make an Android bashing post, please do so without using google translate.

First point: You love Navigon on the iPhone, but you don't like Google Maps or Navigon on Android... alroghty then...

Second: I don't know why you feel like that. I'm using Dolphin browser, P&Z work fine, as well as copying and pasting. It kinda takes a little bit of getting used to to make the magnifying glass pop up.

Three, four, and five I can basically skip since you give Android some room to breathe.

Six: The green feels fine to me. I've used an iP4, and while the Retina Display is nice, I haven't seen any notable differences, and the color green seems fine to me.

Seven: Oh. My. God. Learn what a Beta is. Your definition of beta seems to be: "Too hard for me to use." It seems like my 10 year old sister knows how to use Android better than you. It's so simple to use copy and paste, but it seems you just can't figure out, and you condemn a whole OS because you can't seem to understand it. You also said that there's a launcher to hold and delete apps, so why even bring it up again?

Now for the updating... Are you mental? Is it really that hard to go into the Market, click settings, and then update all? As for the games, just wait. Android hasn't been mainstream as long as iOS.

Eight: So, you're going to use all 5 fingers all the time? I've never seen people use more than 3, and rarely use 3 at all.

Nine: You have to buy an extra accesory to use HDMI output on the iPhone... And that is webtop, not mirroring you're doing. Learn the difference.

Ten: Apps need to be updated. Device less than a month old. Blahdy blah.

Eleven: You skipped 11.

Twelve: High maintenance in time such as tethering? lolwut? Makes no sense at all. Rooting is so simple. All automated for you.

Thirteen: Almost everything is backed up for you! Contacts are auto-backed up to Google from the start. MotoBlur also helps with that. Download an app to backup SMS convo's to your SD card, and then just plug your phone in and transfer your pics. Then there's good, old Titanium.

You're comparing Apples to Robots, and it's just not working. Your basic understanding of the English language is horrible, and shouldn't be used to bash Android.
[Atrix 4G General] oFUNGUSo:
iOS is def more refined, and user freindly. and i had over all less little glitches with my iphone than ive had with my atrix.
