Help please - HTC Inspire 4G

Hey people, i just tried to root my inspire with the new one click and something went wrong and made it a desire HD. i really need help here\
EDIT: i fixed it

If it simply runs the hack kit or does the same thing, thats correct.
Desire HD and this are more or less the same thing.
The H+ icon is gone, but if you got HSPA+ in your area and it put the shipped radio back in, you'll still get HSPA+ speeds.
If you got Audio, you should be all set.
BTW, if it DOES have the H+ icon, you're all set for sure.. Desire HD doesnt have that icon in its rom any where, only the inspire has that.

There's already a thread opened for the hack kit, please read there if you find any solution to your problem; if not.. post there instead of opening a new thread.
On that note, thread closed.

Poor wifi and cell quality

Anyone noticed poor wifi and cellular signal after root
Sent from my HTC Inspire 4G
This is in the wrong section, I believe it belongs in general discussion.
I personally haven't. Have you tried eng s-off and flashing a new radio?
My wifi its top notch, might want to check how many days you have left on your 30 days and return it if this continues to bother you.

[Q] WiFi Problem with HTC Desire HD

Hey guys. First off, first post ever. Been checking out the site since I got my new phone and I've found nothing but help on here from reading.
That being said, I've got a problem.
My HTC Desire HD (I believe it is the same as the U.S. HTC Inspire 4g) has very poor WiFi speeds on my home network.
I'm talking SpeedTest results like 500-999ms 1.17/0.50. For reference, my desktop gets 15ms 83/3.
If someone could help me out, give me some things to try, it would be greatly appreciated.

[Q] HTC sensation "wi-fi" error . Can not turn wi-fi on.

Hello,
As soon as I tap the wi-fi icon, it turns to an "error" state.
I ve seen some threads here, but could not be sure about the resolution. To give idea let me sum it up. My device has been brought from US and I am in europe. İt is alreasy ship s-off.
android version : 2.3.4
software number : android revolution HD 3.6.0. by mike1986
kernel version : 2.6.35.14-Sensation-faux123-v0.1.8+
baseband version : 10.42.9007.00p .....
build number : 1.73.401.2 CL161971

basilcallly tells to apply a signed ROM . But can you please advise which ROM would solve my wi-fi issue. and how to apply that?
Thanks in advance
I also had similar issue when I flashed the original recovery to remove the rooting and clock work mod...
Now if u have the original recovery installed...flash the OTA updates through it and if you don't have the OTA you need to flash the original ROM
After the flashing ur wifi will work normal
hello,
actually I am so new to the stuf. I havent applied any updates to the device, but I guesss it has been s-off ed and applied a different ROM before it has been sold to my friend in USA. Now, which exact ROM would you suggest me to flash and actually where I can find it and read the how to ?.
Thanks
after stock and root i was on Revolution 3.6.1 and now i am using S3N5EaY v 1.4.0 -> agree .. its very smooth - fast and looks great. but still the most important thing is : battery life.. so before i had to charge 2 times a day on hard-use.
theres no need anymore at the moment ;-)
try out by yaself..

Ello m8,
It appears your in the same boat as me, i have the wifi error too, it doesn't even turn on to be able to see networks, let alone connect to them so it's quite horrible.
What i've done:
Flashed pretty much every rom i possibly could. (old ones, new ones, no effect)
Changed the recovery to 4ext (which works great but didn't help)
Changed kernels (a lot)
Changed Radios and RIL files (a lot)
Flashed an official RUU (no effect at all)
Went back to S-ON as described in the tutorial on the main xda sensation guide, then S-OFF'd again.
I'm now back on P3D v 8 and it's running lovely but alas, still no wifi.
I've changed the back cover (the yellow connectors at the top have something to do with the wifi) Don't mess around with these as you may break something, changing the case had no effect, apparently the wifi still connects without the back cover on the phone.
I am literally at my wits end with this and i got my phone for free from my work and i was only supposed to have had it for a while (4 months) so if i say it's broke, they may take it back and i've lost the phone completely, if that wasn't the case then i would have sent it back after i'd tried everything software wise i could think of.
I'm not saying that you are in the same situation exactly but if you are then it looks bleak and i would say anything next to removing the wifi chip and replacing it would mean the wifi will never work, plus tutorials for replacing the wifi on a sensation are scarce to say the least (torque screwdrivers at the ready)
If i get it working i'll let you know how, please do the same if you get any joy.
Oh i almost forgot, another thread on another site they mention using an app called wefi, i didn't have any luck but you might.
Good luck matey Hope you have more than i did.
Hi,
I am having the same issue.
Have been running android revolution HD 3.6.5. by mike1986 and previous versions of it (2, 3) and no issues with the WiFi, as one day it just started (yesterday to be precise). I did not install anything or played with settings that could mess with the wi-fi. One day ago was working ok and the next not.
Tried the Wefi app but it did not help either.
feeling hopeless...

Looks like this error is more common than it would first have appeared, read my post a few up for what i've tried, i even feel like dropping it if it's something inside so as to knock it back into place, but i haven't yet Lol that's desperation.
I've got an appointment with HTC soon and i'm getting it changed, if anyone gets this sorted then let me know as i'd rather keep my phone.

Hi,
I also tried all you tried and no results.
Changed the case with a friends phone but did not help either.
After a lot of reading through the forums did a logcat to see what the hack the phone is saying about this error and it seems it cannot load the driver.
If it helps smb to go deeper can post it.
Gave a thought or two about knocking it against the wall or throw it from the window but after-all, i think i can live for some time without wifi, my GPRS speed is not bad and maybe soon will be having 3G and during work time can use internet pass-through.
Worst case scenario, will sell it and get EDGE the new quad-core monster HTC will be releasing next year Q1 or early Q2.

Dude I got the same problem and I did the same procedure so far but same results as well.
I am just wondering if you got any better results for this issue.
Thanks
Same problem, bad results...
I had the same problem. Both my Bluetooth and WiFi would get stuck on "turning on" but never did, I flashed so many ROMs and Kernels, Tried RUU's from Europe,Asia, and USA and nothing worked. SO I CALLED HTC...thankfully I was still under warranty (It's a 12 month warranty) and shipped my phone away after flashing the latest official T-Mobile RUU, Un-Rooting, and going back to S-ON. It's been a week...I called and they said THE MOTHERBOARD needed to be replaced, which I think is the "default fix" if they can't solve the issue. So hopefully in a week I'll have my phone back...Best of Luck...don't mean to be a Debby Downer but I tried EVERYTHING. Give em a call, it won't hurt to try.

No service on Straight Talk if I leave my zip code?!

Hey everyone, I just bought an Infuse on Evilbay, and the first thing I pretty much did before I even stuck a sim in it was root the thing. I used this root found here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1613523 (option C), and I installed a custom CRT on animation. I also changed my boot animation. I also have a root explorer on the phone, but I have only deleted stock apps. At least, I am sure I only deleted stock apps. The only bugs I have noticed are my original contact list does not function, so I got a new contact app and dialer. The other bug I have noticed if I try to use the stock task manager, the phone will reboot. So, I have a dif app that kills tasks and manages tasks.
So here is my problem, yesterday I left my town of 15k, traveled east on I90 50 miles to Rapid City, SD with a population of 75k. I got about 10 miles east and I lost all service. I was able to use navigation with GPS, but that was it. I called Straight Talk, and I was told the phone only works best in the activation zip code. I posted on Howard about this, and other ST users have been able to take their phones through multiple zip codes, states etc..
What I need to know is how do I fix my phone to work elsewhere? I know the APN settings are correct, I get the H+ icon when the data is active. I am using the APN settings from straightalksim.com. When I activated my phone, I had to use the zip in Rapid City as it would not let me activate with my zip. Would that that have anything to do with my issues? I appreciate all of your guy's help in advance, thank you!
Hey everyone, thaaaaaaannnkkkkssss for your wonderful replies and helping me out, oh wait, sorry, I hear crickets. I got my issue solved on my own.

Well...you could either put your fix in this thread so you can better the site & help other members who might encounter the same problem later, or you could just continue to sound like a giant douchebag & whine about how no one knew how to help you.
Sorry, I am more of an asshole than D-Bag! I don't know how I fixed it honestly. I did flash a new rom, and I flashed the KI3 modem, and bada bing bada boom all fixed and working. Wi-Fi speeds running 3-4 down 1.5 ish up, data speeds 1.2-1.5 down, 1mb ish up. So, its a good modem to use. GPS locks in 1-2 seconds without obstruction as well.
Well if you don't know what you did...leads me to believe that maybe service was just down and/or flaky in the area you were traveling...like a dead zone...have one near my house anytime I pass through the area I lose service...im on att by the way

As I said, I think the modem in the original package was wonky, who really knows. I know that my phone is working fine now, and I am happy. Here is a link to Howard Forums where I initially posted my tirade about ST and what I thought was their end to only find out it was my phone and what I did to rectify the problem.

Huge Network Issues (TMO)

I just recently completed a move from Vegas to Phoenix. Upon arriving i saw that my mobile network just constantly bounced from edge to none to 4g to 3g and nothing ever above 2 bars. no matter where i go, thats the way it is. even when other people with TMO are right next to me and have perfect service. i finally bit the bullet and went into the tmo store and basically the guy told me that i had to get a new phone. My current rom is paranoid android but it does the same on AOSP MIUI and sense 4 viper rom. havent tried any others because i figure i have most of my bases covered there. ive flashed every combination of radio and RIL possible and it does the same thing. when i went in, they gave me a new sim card because they said my sim card was "2G" but seemed to pick up 4g just fine in vegas with 0 issues.
did my phone just really magically break while driving i guess?
another note: it seems worst when sending text messages, like ill recieve one with 2 bars of 3g, type it out, hit send, right after i hit send it just drops the service and says message cannot be delivered. i just have to keep getting it sent back and send it again until it finally goes through. this issue is very very frustrating. thanks for any help you guys can give me, i do want to get a new phone but need this one to work until i can afford it. oh yeah, newest firmware if that matters but i hadnt even updated it before i got out here, it was just one of things i tried to fix it. NOTHING has worked or even helped a little bit.
You and I live in different ends of the US but we seem to have the same issue. My wife has a Sensation also and has good signal most places when I can be right beside her and have no signal, just like right now, I will be lucky to get this to send. I too have tried several radios and RIL's also. I got some advice from mf2112 a short while back. I am just now going to look into it further. Check the pins that make connection to the back cover and make sure they all are making good connection. I am checking mine as soon as I get home, I am sick of not having signal when I know I should.
Hey guys i have an advice the same happened with me and i installed the official ruu with european radio and ril and it just went fine from there and after that i installed many roms(i lost the count anyway)it worked fine 4me try it out bestof luck

I just checked my connections and even lightly cleaned the dust off of them to see if maybe that was the issue. actually seems like it helped a little but not enough to solve the issue. it was definitely worth a shot though. might be placebo effect tho...

are you talking about flashing the actual RUU that says "mod edit: do not flash" or are you talking about the 3.33 firmware from europe? i flashed this firmware and it didnt help my issues. im wondering if i shouldnt try to go back to 100% stock or something this is very frustrating. the guy at the store told me "you know, when you flash things over and over sometimes stuff just breaks" which doesnt make any sense to me. every phone ive ever had i could flash as i please. and i wasnt even heavily flashing anything on this one until i started having this issue.
I have done exactly what the poster has done.
I have done everything... here's what I know
The issue is only from cm9 and aokp.. try flashog hyper nonsense and you shouldn't have issues.. problem is u lose all the aokp settings
It seems.like the issues flux in out.. one day it will work.. one day it wont.. sometimes I.wonder if the tower you are connected to.makes a difference
No,.it.doesn't break from.flashing it.over and over.. the storage is flash so it doesn't have a limit
Regards
