[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Well then, let's backtrack to that version and push out beta 1.1.31 tonight! :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] volumnus:
You are a machine dude. When AT&T starts pushing the Gingerbread 2.3 update to the Inspire, as referenced in the post above, how long until you strip the bloat for us? Will you still call it ClearDroid or maybe GingerClear or ClearBread? haha
[HTC Inspire 4G] meddle70:
The link vol posted I can't obtain a GPS lock inside the house, maybe I should try the Northeast fix?
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
1.1.31 beta is now ready to roll, uploading to the server right now (takes a while on the slow work internet lol).

I will try my absolute best to get it out same-day! So I don't miss anything, if one of you can, shoot me a message on google talk as soon as you hear anything about the update being pushed out lol.

It'll be ClearDroid 2.0.0 initially, then we'll start applying all of our fun little hacks and updates to that build! ;)

The hardest part is always getting a new base to boot...
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
You might try giving it a few mins, and going outside in open air for the first lock. Once your phone knows where it is located, subsequent locks will be faster. :)

FWIW: 1.1.3 uses NorthEast fix, 1.1.31 will use the North America fix. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] volumnus:
Power down. Take out the battery. Restart. Try again. That works for some folks.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
And, a shiny new ClearDroid 1.1.31 Beta to play with!

Download, test, etc! It's using the North America GPS Mod. :)

Also updated FAQ with what to do if GPS doesn't work lol.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bdaman80:
Should we do a wipe to jump up to the latest beta? Or just flash over
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
*Should* potentially just be able to flash over lol. Make sure to do a nandroid backup in clockworkmod beforehand, just in case, but the changes are minor, so it should be fine. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] bdaman80:
Flashed just fine without wiping user data, gps seems great so far. My testing will Proceed
[HTC Inspire 4G] bdaman80:
So far so good, nice and smooth
[HTC Inspire 4G] meddle70:
I'm gonna download the beta now ill do a backup

This Rom is smooth and stable, as always. Gps locked first time in 8 seconds. Quick question though, why doesn't adfree work with this Rom?
[HTC Inspire 4G] meddle70:
No luck with the gps on the beta release. The gps hates me

Edit: it locked inside with the latest beta yay

[HTC Inspire 4G] bdaman80:
Flash a couple of times
[HTC Inspire 4G] volumnus:
Meddle, when is the last time you had a lock?

You may have a mechanical issue. If you can't get it to lock, try flashing another rom and radio to check.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
What exactly doesn't work with adfree? :) that's probably an easy fix.
[HTC Inspire 4G] trell959:
Would the mod pack work on stock rooted?
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
It should

10char
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Given all of your information in the post before your reply to mine... I think maybe I should let you stick to it instead of me getting started, as it's definitely something you're very knowledgeable about, and that post confused me to death. I'm sure I'd figure it out in time, but that's a lot to do lol. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
By chance will this be undervolted? I think the only thing that stock rooted roms suffer from compared to DHD ones is the battery life tends to be a little shorter.

on a side not I wish I was educated enough to know what you all are talking about. I am stuck making graphics hahaha. I'd really like to get into making themes.
[HTC Inspire 4G] lrs421:
It's time I play around with apk tool as well. No longer having to convert them to zips and unpacking them sounds awesome.

Sent from Desire HD or Inspire 4G or whatever this thing is called via premium XDA app.
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
images are in /res/drawable-hdpi, but you cant just add them(you probably know this, but maybe some who read this wont), you have to decompile the apk, add the images to that folder, then give all the images ids in public.xml in res/values, then change stat_sys xmls in drawable to match public.xml.

its actually kinda a pain in the ass.

i was just trying to use it cause i was being lazy, and ive been trying to get this stuff done the last few days, but its just taking forever. this is my first htc phone, and i just got it and started messing with it so i just gotta get used to the little changes, biggest- this kernel was a PAIN in the ass to get to compile. it was almost like the captivate would compile and boot almost anything, the inspires a little more touchy, but i got it down to a science now.

oh and i grep'd for that xml name in values earlier and came up with nothing, so i removed it and it DID compile just fine after that. now i just found the id you are right.

i got it all working and i hope you dont mind if i use your drawable xmls in my framework? itll save me some time.

the first released version will not, havent had time to get at any OC/UV code, but next version will.

there done already, and 1 version will mount /data and /cache as ext2 instead of ext3, which is faster, and easier on battery life, scores around 2200 or with no overclock. also removed a bunch of debug stuff which will remove kernel overhead , therefore should speed it up and give a little better battery.

enough with hijacking clears thread though - sorry for that lol.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
When I start learning kernels (shortly), you may have just volunteered to become my primary resource for information. ;) :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
First and foremost, learn linux. If you have a good understanding of it, it should be fairly easy to get it up to compile from source, changing a bunch of stuff/code/configs and getting it to compile and boot is another story, lol.

if you've never used it, download it now, set it up and start playing with it now to get used to how everything works(you may be an expert, I'm just saying what will help).
[HTC Inspire 4G] pendo:
Actually the vast majority of theme work I've run into does NOT require decompiling. It depends on what you are doing. For normal png's, like statusbar notifications, or menu icons and things, you can simply replace the png with a different one, just make sure you name it the exact same. Where you start to run into issues is with 9 patch pngs. 9 patch images actually have a decompiled and compiled state. Editing is done in their decompiled state...if you don't decompile them, you will loose the 9 patch chunk that was part of the compiling process and they won't work right when they are stretched. Sometimes this is not a big deal. An example is the statusbar pulldown handle. It is a .9.png normally, but I've seen it replaced with a regular png that that the .9 was kept in the name. Works just fine...the only way to tell it wasn't a true 9 patch was when I decompiled it threw an error. Happens ALL the time when working with apktool.

It is much more convenient to work with xml in it's decompiled state, too. Otherwise you're looking at using a hex editor which is needlessly painful.

Bottom line is that don't be afraid to change some images without decompiling. 99% of us start off with a simple thing like that then move on to more complex stuff. 7zip is great, and I've heard winrar is too. If you're on a mac like I am, then injecting images into an apk won't work like that though.

The reason that it compiled is that you really didn't remove the xml. Yes, you removed it from the layout folder, but there's another copy in layout-hdpi. Not all roms have a layout-hdpi, so that's probably why you missed it.

Also, you're going to start seeing more and more roms that have additional layout and drawable folders that have a version tag other than 4. If you're using apktool 1.3.1 (which you should be if you're not), every hdpi folder gets tagged with "-v4" I always remove all those, but you need to leave any with a higher number. The reason you can remove -v4 is that correlates to Donut, which I highly doubt you'll be working with any pre-donut roms anytime soon. The reason to get rid of them is that they aren't there in aosp, and the newer theme systems like the T-mobile engine and Sony's theme system expect the paths not to have -v4 in them.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Need someone to test 1.0.3. :) Nothing is included like radio or recovery or anything like that (meaning no risk of brick of any kind), just need to double check that it works with someone else.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
Ill beta

soon as my phone boots up, had to restore after I tried to flash a rom I made and boot looped...x_x
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
I'll send you the link via PM =]
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
got it, downloading now. Also if you ever need a beta tester I am usually on here reading something I don't understand.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
LOL. Absolutely, I'll just PM the new builds to you, then :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
hahah that's fine. I was trying to figure out how to theme still. Its not as simple as replacing the png images with what you want. I am guessing it has to do with signing and other stuff. Which would explain why I boot loop my phone every time I try to replace the lock screen.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
No doubt, same with when I was trying to use the UOT kitchen to make a super circle mod... I am INCREDIBLY grateful to Pendo for making those for us to use! :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Verysafety:
Testing this out, will provide feedback as I try it :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] klquicksall:
Great rom keep up the good work.
[HTC Inspire 4G] klquicksall:
same here if you need a beta tester let me know. I love flashing roms and seeing what happens.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
I just now got to work, will be working on 1.0.3 all tonight. For some reason, app sideloading works great, but the superuser got messed up somehow. If I get a working version in the next 8 hours, I'll pm you both with the test download. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] pendo:
Howdy,

If I may ask, what issues are you having with superuser?
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
If I am not awake when you do get it working ( you will) I will flash first thing in the morning. Also what do you think about maybe adding super manager or es file explorer as a root explorer alternative? The only reason I ask is you wouldn't even have to load or login to market place to download a root explorer, and install an app from sd card.
[HTC Inspire 4G] trell959:
Thanks will try
[HTC Inspire 4G] volumnus:
I got so pissed today.

I have a brand new car. A truck threw rocks and demolished my window. I didn't know where I was going. My GPS decided not to lock just when I needed it most. I nearly threw my phone out the window. I was trying to find the number of the VW dealership. Swype is terrible with names. I miss the heck out of my tilt 2's hardware keyboard, and my ultra dependable garmin mobile xt. This phone is like an addictive toy, but if you are serious about getting your business done, winmo with a keyboard has my vote over droid.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
The GPS on this phone is indeed very sketchy :( I'm sorry all that happened to you, that's horrible!!! :(
[HTC Inspire 4G] volumnus:
My GPS is working again. I ran speedtest this morning. Maybe that had something to do with it. My insurance policy has a glass clause. They are replacing my windshield with no deductible. At the meeting I was attending, I learned that I make 20K per year less than the average person in my state who has two years less education. You've done wonders with this rom, you think you can fix education in my assbackward state? haha
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
I'll try to incorporate it in a future bugfix! :D

On a side note... anyone good with framework-res.apk files? I'm trying to figure out how to basically merge the DHD framework that our modpack uses with the stock framework so we get our 5-bar signal meter and H+ icon back... I merged one major file, but it did nothing that I'm aware of. Anyone know which files in the framework actually GET modded with the "power control widget"? If I knew that, then I'd know which ones were safe to replace if they were different lol.

And which do you guys prefer, 1.1.3 or 1.1.31? Gotta know which one makes it to the big-time, now! ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
does yahoo mail work on this rom? It did when i first flashed it a couple of weeks ago and since then i have gone exploring. Now the only roms that yahoo email seems to work on are the asop roms like gingerbeast and tpgb. I want to come back to sense...but i want my yahoo mail. Can anyone confirm it still works on cleardroid?
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Web browser I'm not sure... Maybe we can pull one from a gbread Sense build and see if it's any different? Although when an app isn't in the foreground, it uses nearly 0 memory in android lol.

And someone else will have to test the yahoo mail. It SHOULD work, if it has in the past. ;)

I cannot wait until we get the gingerbread update... we might lose some things temporarily though while I get everything back up to speed once it comes out. I'll try to work fast though.

In the meantime, ClearDroid 1.1.31 has gone public! ;) Enjoy!

PS: I'll try to crank out an A2SD version tomorrow! :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] larapr:
Mine its not working either, and I think is a yahoo problem if you Google it you will notice that we are not alone don't know what happened mine was working fine and suddenly stopped working its been a week already :(
[HTC Inspire 4G] larapr:
Yahoo mail its not working with the imap Protocol I don't think is the rom just a yahoo issue its was working before, i made a test with the official settings in the yahoo website android support and it can send emails but not receive or syc your inbox but in the meantime anyone who uses yahoo can download the yahoo mail application from the market that has push, emails arrives instantly, and if by any chance somebody knows a fix with other imap settings please let me know. In other subject I can't wait for the gingerbread update either , but if any of you developers would like to have glimpse of what is coming more or less here is a link of the TELUS desire HD OTA gingerbread update ..take care guys..

[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
its just really odd that yahoo mail works perfectly for me on gingerbeast and tpgb but when i try a sense rom it doesnt work. i really need to get crackin on switching over totally to my gmail account.
[HTC Inspire 4G] larapr:
Out of curiosity can you share the yahoo mail settings you have with that rom? Maybe yahoo made some changes and HTC sense with froyo cannot retrieve it automatically

UPDATE: I kept searching Google for a solution and I got it working again!!r, delete your yahoo account from the HTC mail application and just reset your password in the yahoo website like if you have forgotten it, later set the yahoo account again in your phone with the IMAP and smtp yahoo settings ..wait like 15 min and voila! working again after a week trying to find a solution , apparently yahoo made some changes in their servers and a password reset will force refresh your account in order to sync , hope this helped
[HTC Inspire 4G] volumnus:
I don't know about the browser not using memory

It sets off watchdog at least once a day when I'm not even using it, and when I go on-line, it's always on the same web page where I was the last time as if it's been running non-stop.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
What's watchdog? I've never used it... :p
[HTC Inspire 4G] AngelDeath:
Since ClearD is using my mod for the GPS, and I have been working on roms lately with the HD2, I have kinda slipped on the gps, I will make an update for the north america with the new lines for people to test out here, and let me know if it makes it any better or worse. Give me a couple of days to sort the commands out and I'll post it directly here.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Killer! I think it is more of something wrong in the radio/ril than the gps configurations though, that is the main problem with the inspire. We can turn it on and clear agps and download new agps data, then still not get a single satellite... restart the phone and get 7... it is just messed up. Why can't it work like my actual gps unit? :(
[HTC Inspire 4G] crupp:
I have no problems with the GPS. I can get a lock in about 5 seconds
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
I just did some testing... I've got 7-9 sats in view/in use, and can't get a lock for anything. Can someone explain that? :/ sketchiest gps I've ever seen in my life.

I just did a reflash last night, so I'm gonna give it a couple of days to "settle", but it's rather annoying.

Edit: 1 hour later, restarted phone once, immediate 8-sat lock, accurate to 12 feet! Hopefully it stays now that it has lock data stored :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
HAHAHAHA ok i have to share this. I reinstalled your rom and proceeded to test it out. I missed a good clean and stable sense rom. I did my speed test and was SHOCKED to see i was getting a steady 14+Mbps! I did the test 4 times with the same results. i was about to go crazy and tell everyone...then i learned my lesson. The lesson today is to Turn off your wifi before you do the test LOL!

Now back to the after work beer.

Hey meddle, try turning the device off and on a few times, taking the battery out in between for about 30 secs. Outside in open air, are you getting at least one sat showing in gps test?

Also, if you guys want apps from other roms you see, let me know and I might be able to include them. I've been reading about an AOSP or MIUI camera, does anyone know about either of these? Like the primary differences?
[HTC Inspire 4G] meddle70:
How do you do a gps test

Sent from my HTC Inspire 4G powered by ClearD's rom
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Download the GPS Test free app from the market :) it'll show you how many sats your phone is seeing. If it gets at least one, let it sit there for a good while. The first lock can take painstakingly long, mine was nearly a half hour, but I am also indoors. Once it gets the location info stored in your phone, however, things are a lot easier. My next lock was about 10-20 seconds.
[HTC Inspire 4G] volumnus:
Watch Dog monitors your apps.

A lot of folks around here recommend it. It notifies you when an app is eating up too much memory. It costs $3.50, but recently Amazon gave it away for free.

My GPS is working pretty well again, but I agree with what you said about the radio and ril affecting GPS reception in the Inspire. GPS works really well in Coredroid and Leedroid, but they both use the same Desire radio and ril. They use this one:

12.54.60.25x_26.09.04.11_M2
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Think we should give it a go? I'm down for testing if you guys are! :)

Also, just cranked out 1.1.31 A2SD and got it uploaded tonight, for our wonderful A2SD lovers! If anyone uses it, lemme know how it works for you!

So, funny story... we're already using that RIL. :p

Edit: Well, with the new Radio, it's getting 8 sats pretty fast indoors, but I've yet to actually get a lock? Oops... I just spoke too soon. While typing that, it finally locked lol. Currently within 45 feet, indoors. Now 9 sats... I think we have a winner. I'm gonna upload the PD98IMG.zip file that I just made for it, so you guys can flash too!

The RIL for this radio is also used in another radio, actually. Pulled same RIL from both lol. It's the HM131 RIL. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] volumnus:
Pardon my ignorance.

Do I need to flash a new ril for this radio? I can track it down if need be and post a link for everybody. It almost sounds like you are saying that the ril is included in the P98 image. I really don't know how this works. I have never flashed a ril before. I've always used the OTA radio for whatever rom I was using, and the ril was baked in.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Negative. The RIL is already in the latest ROMs. :)

We have been using the HM131 RIL without this radio version for a while now, as the RIL actually made a nice difference, but the 1-2 combo seems to be amazing lol.
[HTC Inspire 4G] volumnus:
Cool.

From what I've seen, that's the most popular radio for our phone.

Update: I flashed the older but newer to us M2 radio. Due to our experience with the OTA radio, I flashed it twice just for good measure lol. I'll report back later tonight. I am getting four instead of my normal three bars in the house, which is already a good sign.

[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
You can indeed :) It will work on any version! But 5-10 seconds should be fine. After the first lock, as I understand it, your phone will hold data on where it is located for future fixes.

I still cannot get a lock after waiting outside for 20 minutes, I'm gonna do testing on different roms to see what it could be.

Meddle, did you also double flash the radio? And you're on 1.1.31 right?

I think we need to start a fund to get meddle a new inspire xD his is having issues...
[HTC Inspire 4G] meddle70:
I know, lol I cannot get this to work at all I am on my third different ROM and I been flashing different radios and I cannot get a signal still! I have no idea why it is so frustrating! And yeah Clear I was on 1.1.31 but I am going to reflash the ROM on a clean slate, and I guess I should flash the radio you posted a few posts back, but what RIL files should I download? The ones assorted with the latest OTA radio by AT&T?
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Just reflash 1.1.31 and the radio (also updated the radio on the first post), the RIL is built into the ROM, along with AngelDeath's GPS mod. :)
