I'm from Panama, but the phone was shipped to NY to a friend, so I can return it without problem..

Well last night I rooted it, downgrade it, flashed with the original rom, flashed to Coredroid rom, flashed to Android Revolution rom, in every rom it has the pixalation and the screen resolution problem, and unrooted it, flashed with the original rom again, and all is like new..

so it is a hardware issue.. today I'll call to amazon custom service to make the replacement..

I'll post when they replaced the phone and have it again..

thx for your help mudknot2005
[HTC Inspire 4G] limx:
ok, i called and talked to them, it's a hardware issue :D, so I will send it back on Monday, wait about a week and got a new phone...

I'm glad they gonna replace it..
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
Anytime that is what we are here for. I am guessing you turned s-off back on? If not I would do that before you ship it. To make sure all you need to do is boot into hboot, holding down volume down and power while it is restarting.

Glad to hear amazon is going to handle the issue :D.
[HTC Inspire 4G] donharden2002:
I got 3 in a row with bad screens. Made me wonder if there was a bad shipment here in Pittsburgh. I wound up getting an atrix but am taking it back also. It's very buggy, I've had to do battery pulls almost daily due to the phone freezing up.

I hope your able to solve your problem. I live close to an att store so I didn't try any of the mentioned methods.

Best of luck with it.

Entire screen resolution issue

Sorry to hear everyone else is having problems, too. What led up to my issue is I tried RC Kingdom's newest ROM, and then all hell broke loose on my poor screen. And yes, I followed the youtube video on his page to make sure I installed it properly. It was sharp and crisp before I installed that ROM. I have tried everything in this thread to resolve my resolution issue, but to no avail. Tried using the stock RUU to reset back to factory. No cigar. Then I re-rooted and put my backup from nandroid on. No bueno. After that I installed CoreDroid's newest rom, RCKingdom's newest rom, and Virtuous's newest rom. Again, no luck. And I did this all from both 4ext recovery, and CWM. Attached I have provided 4 screenshots from various areas to show it's a ROM-wide issue. If anyone could help, I would <3 you forever! :D

If there is anything I am lacking to provide assistance, please don't hesitate to ask. I may be a noob, but I used the forum search tool, google, didn't make a new thread, and tried resetting back to stock, so please be gentle. :)

EDIT: I'm looking more closely at the screen, and it looks like the picture on the screen isn't filled up to the edges. Can anyone else either confirm of deny this? Thanks! :)

EDIT2: The edge of the picture on the screen definitely doesn't match up to the phone screen. From what I've researched on google, it could mean bad flash memory, either from time, or a bad flash. Does anyone else have ideas? :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
Your first sentence caught my eye. Just wanted to say this issue is very rare. Not sure if you realize this, but you responded to a 5 month old thread, where only 2 people had this problem. Haven't seen anyone mention this issue happening since then. Back in March, the Inspire was brand spanking new, so that might explain why a couple of people had the problem back then, maybe due to a few manufacturing process glitches that happens with some brand new products.

Now on to your problem. I took a look at your screen shots, and I honestly don't see any issues with your resolution. The 1st screen shot looks like you were in mid-swipe when you took it - the icon tilting effect is a normal thing when swiping between screens on a Sense 3.0 ROM using the 3D effect. The other 3 screenshots look fine. I do see a little jagginess in the scroll page indicator in your Sense dock, but I'm viewing your images on a 24" monitor and I'm willing to bet that jagginess isn't noticeable on a 4.3" screen.

One thing to keep in mind about Sense 3.0 ROMs is that a lot of stuff has been manually resized and doesn't always look its clearest. For example, I've noticed that on a lot of Sense 3.0 lockscreens the icon font looks a tad blurry. But I did notice that you said the problem happens on the stock RUU, which might indicate you've got a hardware problem that cropped up coincidentally while you were flashing ROMs.

Do your screen shots represent what you're actually seeing? Be sure to look at them on a computer monitor before answering. :D Regarding the issue you mentioned where your image doesn't go all the way to the edge of the screen, can you post of a picture of your phone taken with a camera? I can compare your phone's screen to mine.
[HTC Inspire 4G] snowman0269:
henry,

I didn't realize this. I just saw 2 pages, and thought there were more people having this issue. Sorry for that. The images were done purposely that way to show the issue. However, thanks for your quick reply. :) I have viewed them on my 17" laptop screen, with 1920x1200 resolution (and every other resolution that it can do), and on a few other monitors I have laying around (and all resolutions on those, too). It still seems blurry and jagged to me. I will post a picture taken with a camera as soon as I can get my hands on one. And on the stock RUU, it still looks just like that. I have even gone to trying some older sense 2.1 ROMs, and even the no-sensi one, just to make sure of that issue you were saying it might be. Still the same thing. Thanks again for helping me on this one. :) I should have a picture to post here in about 15 minutes, after I locate a camera.

EDIT: Make that an hour. My camera has one of those rechargeable batteries. Lol. :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] snowman0269:
Here is the picture I have taken. I circled the spots you can see that the picture is away from the sides of the screen. It's not the best camera, but it is all I have. And the lighting wasn't the best, either. :) Thank you for your time, again, henrybravo!

[HTC Inspire 4G] snowman0269:
Hiya,

That it is, that it is. Hey, is ClearDroid a good ROM? I can't stay away from the ROMs that have plenty of eye candy. It's a curse! :D Does ClearDroid have the eye candy CoreDroid does? Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Wolf:
No, it is terrible! Just kidding. It is a great rom. Actually, the selection of roms that we have are all very good. Really just depends on your taste. As far as your issue is concerned, I can see what you are referring to. There could be a few different causes but my first guess from looking at your pictures is that it may be hardware related.
[HTC Inspire 4G] snowman0269:
Here are some pics with the stock rom. Three of them are screenshots with adb, and the other two are with my camera. You guys rock! :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Wolf:
That last pic showed me a lot. Having the eyes that I do that would promptly make me exchange it out. For most though I don't think that would be major but still hard to say. My guess is that it is still hardware related due to the misalignment issue.
[HTC Inspire 4G] snowman0269:
Wolf_2,

I'm going to revert it back to stock permanently tonight, and try to make them take it back tomorrow. :D AT$T wants me to go through an exchange process that will take 7-10 business days. I will probably have to wait it out, but no harm in trying. With the screen being all fuzzy, jagged and all, I don't like to look at my phone as much. And it's so awesome looking! Thanks again, all.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Wolf:
I would do the same. I would politely argue with them and see if the manager would exchange it on the spot. Best of luck to you and I hope it all works out.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Hiyabuz:
Don't let them do that. If you have had the phone less than thirty days their policy in ur contract states an in store direct swap for a newly purchased device.

And ClearDroid is a stock looking Rom with some eye candy from his optional modpack. But you can customize it just like most all stock sense. I like mine simple so I'm just running a carbon fiber skin theme, and his circle mod that pendo ported over for his Rom. Check out his Dev thread he's always open for some advice on new things that's y I like him. He's all about the users not just the way he likes it.

[HTC Inspire 4G] xKrisx:
Make sure to go to a Corporate store and not an Authorized Dealer. Corporate Stores are easier to convince to swap on the spot. Authorized Dealers don't ahve that privaledge.
[HTC Inspire 4G] snowman0269:
@Hiyabuz: I've had the phone since April 2nd, 2011. So maybe it's just the phone's time or something. I will check out ClearDroid. Honestly, I didn't even know he had an optional modpack. The things I love about CoreDroid is the translucent pull down menu, the color images everywhere, and the lock screens are sweet! Once I get my new phone back, I will try out the ClearDroid.

@Wolf_2: Politeness will get you everywhere in a retail store, so maybe I will just try to find a woman in that store, and flirt with her a little. :) Thanks for all your support!

@henrybravo: Where to start. :) Thank you for all the time you spent looking at the pictures, and suggesting things to try. Very much appreciated. And thank you for being gentle on my noobness. OH! Yeah, those links in your sig for the GPS and data? Pure sexiness! My GPS doesn't take almost 10 minutes anymore to lock, and actually STAYS locked. :) As for the APN settings, it boosted them up a bit (Jacksonville, FL isn't the best market for AT$T), but keeps them there. So thanks! :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] snowman0269:
xKrisx,

Nice CM modding! Wow! :) I've tried to mod CM before, but never like that. It always kept force closing everything on the mods I tried. That clock. <3 The launcher for the icons on the side is sweet as well. Can you change the lock screen on CM as well?

EDIT: And yes, I do plan on getting to the easiest to deal with corporate store in the city. Just have to wait for them to open up. :)

Hi. I hope this is the right section to post this question. So...

I've flashed many roms and noticed that none have Brazilian Portuguese language for obvious reasons.

So, my question is: as Android has ptBR language on another rom (not for DHD), can we (Brazilian) halp in anyway to translate some files for you chef's to include our language on your roms ? And how about Sense UI? It's possible to translate it too ?

I can translate (despite my not so good english) and a couple of friends can help too.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thiagodark:
cara, voce ja tentou "portugues (espanha)" presente em todas as roms? Tenho certeza que é pt-br escrito errado. Dá uma testada aí.

there are two portuguese languages to chose, "portugues (portugal)" (this is the europe one) and the second is "portugues (espanha)", as i know that in spain they don't speak portuguese i gave it a try and it is, as a matter of facts, pt-br, htc just mess with it... as i said, it's not europe portuguese, it's just brazillian portuguese in a wrong label. please try it now and tell me what do you see wrong...

as i use it in english and don't really noticed many brazillian here, it never bothered me!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vettorazzo:
thiagodark 1000% agreed. That's pure ptBR, and I can't foud any problems with the language rules. Just a screen translated to "Exibição" and not "Tela" but it's a minor detail. The label it's another minor detail. Now I can say to other that's ptBR suport. Thanks for the advice.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thiagodark:
Well, in english is "display", not "screen", so I think "exibicao" is more accurate anyway... :o)

[EVO 4G General] jstalford:
Hands down, MikFroyo. Used most of the popular ones and I do like some other Sense ROMs more depending on my mood, but MikFroyo is easily the fastest. EViO is very fast too although I haven't used the newest version.
[EVO 4G General] ncfastls1:
Myn's Warm RLS 5. I thought MikFroyo was faster for a while, but then I flashed Warm RLS 5 again and realized that it was all in my head. They are both very fast though, not a huge difference.
[EVO 4G General] Zheranon:
Be sure to check out Unleased R2...that one was fastest sense ROM for me
[EVO 4G General] ocnbrze:
mikfroyo was way faster for me then myn's 2.2 rls5. i loved how it looked and it seemed to me that things were a little smoother then myn's.
[EVO 4G General] empiire:
Myn's, without a doubt. Sleek, fast, and very responsive. :)
[EVO 4G General] Ryjabo:
I have tried just about all of them now, and none of them are that much noticeably faster than stock Sense, and none are near as fast as CM7. I want to like Sense but I'm not willing to sacrifice the performance for it.

EDIT: I don't mean any offense to the ROM developers... it's just how Sense is.

[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
I think I've run about all the bigger Sense ROMS, including Myn's, whcih I have now.

As far as pure speed, none are very much separated from the other, but I think King's Ultra Froyo appeared to have the most nap. WarmZ is fast, but it stands out for it's smoothness.

Again, to the eye, none seem much faster than the other. Those 2 just stood out.

i feel the same way about women.
[EVO 4G General] hunterbeav:

Does anyone know how to untheme mikfroyo
[EVO 4G General] Jungle Jack:
Hello,

I had been using MikFroYo for some time and it was indeed fast, but was super slow for me when using 4G. So slow that 3G was loading pages and Hulu faster.

A couple days ago, I DL'ed Kings Unleashed R2 and 4G is blazing and Hulu works quite well. I first tried R3, but as with Myn's, I would have issues with Hulu loading speed even on Wifi.

I also personally prefer the Graphics on R2 better than any other ROM I have used.

Quite similar to Myn's.

Cheers,

JJ

To whome it may concern. With the cm7 my data speeds are REALLY slow. When i use other roms there is a noticeable speed increase in loading of webpages and data heavy apps.

Side question:

This my first CM build on a phone. I was wondering what the icon looks like when im getting 3g speeds. So far i have a green icon with a '1x' on it. Sometimes it will go grey. I didnt know if i was even getting my 3g or if its using basic '1g'.

Excuse the '1g' reference, im a noob so save your troll/flame.
