@ MyEpix: I had the same thing happen a few days ago. Have you installed any apps lately that automatically upload SMS backup data? I don't want to name the app because it may not have been the culprit.

Clearing cache and Dalvik did not fix it. The only thing that I could get to work was my three week old nandroid, but I lost a lot of data. Painful reminder to backup more often.

[HTC Inspire 4G] MyEpix:
I meant sense 3.0 lockscreen. No, wipping cache and Dalvik did not fix the problem. Only solution is restoring nandriod backup.

@39FarmallM

No, I do not have any app that performs automatic upload of SMS backup data installed. I just wiped all user data and reflashed CD1.3.1. I am now restoring my user apps one at a time with Titanim backup to determine the offending app.
[HTC Inspire 4G] 39FarmallM:
I'm running similar to you, only I'm on CD1.3.2 with the 3.0 lockscreen.

I would be interested in your findings.

Check out the Inspire radio thread.

The new radio is there for download.

I'm gonna try it. Haven't seriously messed my phone up in a while. ;)

Hey ClearD, after you have had a chance to test the new radio, could you let us know if our current ril is best or should we test drive a few different ones and post the results?

The radio is here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=29605945&postcount=1015

The ril is here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=29607701&postcount=1019

Both are in the phone now. Ran the radio with the existing ril without problems. Will see what both do.

New base means new Rom. I started building last night and have the new radio with new rcdata image all packed neatly in a PD98IMG.zip for you guys, which I'll upload tonight. Still working on the Rom itself, I'm having deodex problems. The radio + rcdata seems to be working nicely though, so far.

New Rom fixes sms app and adds full sense 3.0; android version is 2.3.5.

Update: Rom flashed, rom booted, driving it for a day now. At this second, I'm having an issue with the wifi, but I'm not sure whether that's the routers here at work or the Rom itself. I'll test at home. Other than that, everything else appears to be working fine. I can't really test root or anything yet though, without wifi lol. I'll begin modding once I know it works. Uploading the new radio/rcdata for you guys to the server right now.

Edit: New radio: 2.3.5 Radio PD98IMG.zip
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Jeez, no replies? Progress is being made.

I wound up flashing the entire HTC RUU onto my own phone, then last night tried pushing CWM onto it via PD98IMG, which worked, and I could reboot into it, but didn't work entirely as I'd hoped. The images I pulled from it were corrupted.

Tonight, I used an insecure boot image I made, pushed THAT through PD98IMG (BDAMan is working on an actual kernel, this is just a dirty hack for the meantime), then after that, rooted using my own MOTOACTV Root Tool (modified as not to push the actv recovery at all) to gain root, then flashed CWM through Rom Manager.

That's where I am now. I'm now pulling images to use as a better (rooted) base for us, and will be building from that. :)

I'll most likely give it a shot if you upload it. I've been running roms based on official Sense 3.0 lately. I'll definitely stick with the one I find to be the best until the ICS roms here mature enough.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Well, well, well... build 7's the charm.

Gotta double check root, but it's booting as I'm typing this. Wifi works. :)

Edit: ADB works; root shell works via ADB; who wants version 1.4.0 build 7?

Now, keep in mind. This version is VERY PLAIN. In fact, I haven't really done **** to it yet. Only rooted, installed superuser, insecured boot image with adb, and that's about it. I haven't even taken out the AT&T stuff yet. I did it on my OWN phone via root explorer, but haven't done my usual moddery here yet.

Uploading to my server now...
[HTC Inspire 4G] cee43ja1:
basically, it's stock rooted? i wouldn't mind getting that to keep in the rom folder. the only stock rooted i have for the Inspire is the ollllld 1.84 Froyo rom.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
For right now, this very second, yes. :) Insecure boot image and stock rooted. Uploading right now, though it's super slow here at work, and says it will take 2 hours. I'll post a link when it's done.

EDIT: 98% done, I guess I can link now.

Sorry guys, gizmoe has shown me something that needs changed before it will boot for you. The reason it's booting for me is because I'm running the latest hboot, but without that, you guys will be stuck. I could also put the hboot in a PD98IMG for you... As long as you're s-off, you'll remain s-off. But, I'm going to try gizmoe's fix first. :)

good thing i took the HBOOT from the Desire HD 3.12 RUU, before updating to the AT&T one. just had to reformat the cache partition in 4EXT recovery. if only the ugly pink *LOCKED* text wasn't there.

No longer able to install ClearDroid - hardware failure?

I can no longer install ClearDroid roms as my saga as initially stated in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=26138104#post26138104 continues.

My Inspire used to bog down to the point of becoming unbootable, which used to be fixable via rom reinstalls, but now those are failing with assertion failures on /tmp/boot.img. A separate but possibly related issue is the failure to mount /cache while in recovery. I had initially had this issue while attempting to install roms from 4EXT's recovery, but thought I was past it with the installation of TWRP. However, the Inspire has gradually started slowing down, crashing, and becoming unbootable without a fresh rom install (ClearDroid 1.3.1 followed by 1.3.2). This process would fix the issue until yesterday, when I began receiving the assertion errors. Logcat shows multiple out of space errors, read/write errors, Dalvik garbage collection seemingly running amuck, and more. The lack of consistency has me wondering if there is an underlying hardware issue. I'm close to calling for a replacement handset.

Log files are attached. Could somebody more knowledgeable about Android architecture please take a look and see if I'm just doing something really, really stupid or if there really does appear to be a hardware problem?

Thanks,

Keith

Phone: HTC Inspire™ 4G

Radio: 26.17.14.11_M

Rooted & Radio S-Off: Advanced Ace Hack Kit

HBOOT 0.85.2425

Recovery: TWRP v2.2.0
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
1) Download Rom Manager from market

2) Open it, and choose the first option, to Flash Clockworkmod Recovery

3) Flash from there.

I have absolutely no experience with any other recovery, and your results may be the reason that not many others use them. I've heard good things about 4EXT but have never used it myself. Why not CWM, out of curiosity?

IN OTHER NEWS...

BDAMan80 built the boot image you guys need, and I'm building the first rom right now. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] cee43ja1:
i was going to stick with CWM, but 4EXT has more specific options, and feels faster. can't beat nandroids with rom names labeled already. plus, 4EXT is based off of CWM, so it's more of a forked recovery than built from ground up.

i would have suggested running the 3.20 RUU, but the AAHK wouldn't work properly. maybe running the AAHK to S-ON, return to stock 2.47 gingerbread, and re-run the AAHK to S-OFF would wipe the errors?
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
If you're S-OFF, you can run the RUU and you'll still be S-OFF, then I can make you a PD98IMG.zip file to flash through HBOOT that will give you an insecure boot image, and from there, you can root, install Rom Manager, give it root permissions, and then flash a recovery from inside it (or I could include a recovery in the PD98IMG with the boot image if you already have the recovery.img saved).

Testing deodexed rom that I just built now; backing up first of course. 5 files wouldn't deodex, so I replaced 4 of them with older deodexed versions from build 1.3.2 and removed the last one. From what I read, it's not needed anyways, so we'll see how this works out on first boot.
[HTC Inspire 4G] cee43ja1:
what i was suggesting is to bring the phone back to complete stock, hence S-ON to 2.47 gingerbread. but i should have followed up with running the phone as is for a few days to see if it still slows down or not. that should point out if it's actual hardware problems, or if it's bad flashes.

back to the 3.20 rom talk, does the stock camera app have panorama and HDR? last time i was on sense 3.0, they weren't included.
[HTC Inspire 4G] volumnus:
Clear, can you post something for me.

The only wifi tethering app I've ever been able to use besides barnacle is the green one you included in a previous version of the rom. The yellow nor any other tethering app has never worked for me. Can you repost that green tethering app somewhere or I'm out of luck. I've been fooling with this for hours.

Update: I flashed a couple of other roms built on the update, and, when I tried to come back to cleardroid (downloaded from the op), I'm bootlooping.

I downloaded the superstock rom, and I can no longer get any wifi hotspot app to work? Do you think I lost root? I'm lost.

According to the app rootchecker, it says congrats you have root. It also says S-off on the bootloader screen. Do you think the update contains a new way to prevent us from tethering without a plan?
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
No idea bro. I'm working on this as fast as I can.

Build 8 is deodexed and boots/works for me, but I'm still needing a working boot image from BDAMan80 (hint hint) before I can get anything out to you guys. :(

That is, unless you want to update your HBOOT via PD98IMG. It doesn't hurt anything, if you want to. :)

If not, where might we find the PD98IMG.zip that we need?

Root, yes; s-off, no. You only need s-off to get root back anyways, and the Rom I posted a few pages back is rooted again. It's safe, is what I mean lol.

I'll make the image tonight.

EDIT: just texted bda also, and he had a massive hard drive failure, but is going to try to get a build tonight if possible.

[HTC Inspire 4G] cee43ja1:
i didn't lose root when i updated from HBOOT 0027 or 0030. maybe i was lucky?

and here's the PD98IMG HBOOT i pulled from the RUU. mind you, with the new HBOOT, the cache partition has to be formatted. 4EXT recovery is my choice since you can either choose EXT3 or EXT4 when formatting.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Well shoot, you beat me to it! I just uploaded this one too:

Inspire HBOOT Update PD98IMG.zip

I figured the cache was required, but wasn't sure, so I used the same android-info.txt from the original rom update lol.

In other news, when I get home, I'll upload our first deodexed rom from the new build, Build 8, as well as a (hopefully working) modpack beginning for this new build.

EDIT: Just pushed the files to my own device... Beautiful.

Battery is on 99% with a pretty silver circle. Keep in your memory, I'm not taking any other dev's files when I do these things for the Inspire. I take so long because I just decompiled our brand new Inspire services.jar, hacked in the battery % mod, then recompiled it. I did, however, take the lazy way (for speed tonight) and let the UOT kitchen do my framework mod for me lol. Their mod won't work without the services hack though. Next, I'm going to decompile/mod/recompile the UOT's framework-res and decompile/mod/recompile our android.policy.jar to create our own version of the extended shutdown menu. I dearly miss my extended shutdown menu.

EDIT 2:

PD98IMG.zip must be flashed through HBOOT... you can flash it with 4EXT Recovery? *puzzled face* However no, if you're ONLY updating the HBOOT, you won't lose root. I completely misread farmall's question, sorry farmall lol. You will lose root if you run the full HTC RUU, which will install the complete Rom, not just the HBOOT. My bad, I was tired when I wrote that lol.

EDIT 3: I know you guys won't be able to do anything with it until I get Build 8 uploaded, but here's the modpack for it; it might work for build 7 also, but I'm not positive. Flash through recovery.

ClearDroid ModPack Version 1.5.000

Only battery mod is included thus far. Still working on the rest. Will do more to Rom when I can, also.

EDIT 4: I'm now uploading the new Rom. IT WILL CURRENTLY REQUIRE THE HBOOT UPDATE. If you don't want to update your HBOOT, wait until we get a new boot image created. For those that don't mind it:

ClearDroid 1.4.0 Build 8

-Stock 2.3.5 Sense 3.0 Rom

-Rooted

-Zipaligned

-Deodexed

I only tested until the boot on mine, and it booted and started the welcome menu, so it should be good to go. If something is broken, let me know so we can fix it. :) Out of the 5 files that refused to deodex, I replaced 4 of them and removed one of them completely (couldn't find a replacement yet). The modpack should work with this version. As of this edit, it's not yet done uploading, but should be within the next 20 mins. Enjoy!
[HTC Inspire 4G] cee43ja1:
no no. PD98IMG is still in HBOOT bootloader. but when you come from the old 0.85 HBOOT, you have to format the cache partition because it's in a raw state. 4EXT recovery gives you a choice of EXT3 or EXT4 when formatting, while CWM is only EXT3 i believe.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Ahh, I see. The script I used in the PD98IMG actually formats the cache in hboot. :D

Full wipe is required, but it isn't booting at all? First one will take a good while. Yes, the new bootloader is locked, but as long as you're s-off, it doesn't matter. You don't need to unlock it, pd98imgs will still flash.

Flash build 8 and then boot it first, see if that makes a difference. If not, try build 7 a few pages back. Build 7 is not deodexed though.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
I took a look at it and had the same result. I noticed that the Rom update was small so I opened it up and sure enough you are missing the lib folder and lost+found folder in system. I added the original ones from the Ruu Rom and it booted right up. Not sure what went wrong there, but thought I would let you know. After adding the lib folder the size went up to 323 mb or somethings closer to that, don't exactly remember.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Only with gizmoe's assistance with the ramdisk and bda's kernel.

That's odd... Apparently it didn't build as I thought it did. I'll drop those in and we will try again. Bda just sent me one with the new ramdisk to test, so we will check that now too. :)
