Id like to complie a list for what things work for the Inspire that were made for the DHD. They are the same phone, just different carriers. So what can you guys confirm? What stuff do you think works? Roms? Kernels? There is a oneclick tool that includes visionary in the DHD forum, and I wonder if it could work? Let me here what you guys think.

We're using DHD ROMs for the most part now, there are a few that were built off of the stock ROM, but for the most part all of the ROMs we're seeing are DHD ROMs. All of the radios we use come from the DHD Radios thread, Apache's kernel thread redirects you to his DHD kernels...so yes, these all seem to be interchangable. The exploit that was available in the DHD to one-click root is not available on the Inspire, which is why it's required to make a gold card so you can downgrade the ROM first.
Thaat makes sense about the rooting. But even if they aren't in this thread for roms and they are in the dhd, they still work?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
For the most part , yes. You might have to flash a compatible kernel and turbonix audio fix for some of the Roms. I think if you see in the rom's description that it is built from 1.84 base then it works without modification.

well all of the skins work. Ive tried about 10 different ones.
just about all cases, the official htc car dock for the dhd works for the inspire, screen protectors......
I just came from the HD2 so I'm still kinda new to the Inspire. With the HD2, each kernel was built from scratch specifically for the HD2 so there was never any question that a kernel from a different ROM would work. I know the Inspire and DHD are basically the same phone specification wise except for different audio drivers for the inspire, so my question is: Can I take any AOSP kernel for the DHD to flash directly to my Inspire running MIUI?
Yes I'm using lordmod on miui now

Thanks!! And I'm assuming I can do the same thing with ROM's also right?

Just try and see... Be sure to backup first.
I've had issues with some kernels not working quite right. The latest lordmod kernel i could not get to act right with Gingerbeast on my phone.
It's a trial by error. Some ROM's too.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA Premium App
Yes Nick is absolutely right. play around and see. every rom I have ever used from the dhd section has worked fine for me some just require you to flash an audio fix thats all. but yes for the most part all the dhd stuff is compatible. Just remember dont use an aosp kernel on a sense rom and vice versa
Cool, thanks guys. And I already made that mistake with the kernels. I tried flashing Leedroid kernel to the MIUI ROM. Everything booted up fine, but wifi gave an error when I tried to enable it. I think ill stick with lordmod anyway, since it seems to be the best all around. Thanks for the help.

you need to keep Sense kernels and AOSP/CM/MIUI kernels separated.
Just wanted to know people's opinions of the lack of aosp dev support for this phone.
I don't want to take anything away from the Dev's that have ported from other devices but i'd like an AOSP Rom that is developed specifically for the Desire S :/
Yes, there seems to be lack of dev support here compared o all the other HTC devices..
What I would really like is if we could have Android Revolution HD ROMs, and LeeDroid ROMs (there are great ports now from dhd)
But I would prefer support from the devs themselves

Currently there are multiple rom within this single thread in development, I'm hoping that they are all split at done point other wise it will be difficult to follow

Not as bad as an absolute lack of support.
The Kyocera Echo doesn't even have a recovery, stock or custom. We had root until 2.3.4 took it away.
Now we have nothing.
Should 2.3.4 be anything to be happy about without root? :|

It's been less than a month since Alpharev released their S-off, and an AOSP take so much more work than just copying a Sense rom and adding your own tweaks. Hydrogen Saga is the most stable AOSP I can find, andthis is also ported.
In time custom AOSP's built from the bottom up will come. I love not having any Sense.

I think it comes down to a quality issue. I never used a Cyanogen rom on the original Desire that didn't have a bug that wasn't already reported on the changelog. Not even a nightly.
Roms for the Desire S at the moment are coming with little Quality Control. We are the testers!
Is there any mods I can install on my phone, s off, rooted. Or do I need to flash certain ROM inorder to install mods like beats.

Hi,
The thing is to flash mods using the same base as your ROM.
If you check my sig , I have battery mods for ARHD base 2.3.4 and 2.3.5
Check with your ROM'S dev,to see which base you are using,and then flash the appropriate mod.
ALWAYS MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE YOU INSTALL A MOD
For beats I installed THIS MOD ,because I am on base 2.3.5 using Sense 3.5
Or you could install ARDH 3.6.3 XE which contains beats anyway.

I'm still on stock tmobile us rom, I just came from arhd with no luck so I restored my phone to factory stock then s off and rooted.

You can install anything you want, you just have to know what it is you want to do. Lets say you want to have beats audio (using the previous posters example). You know you have a stock ROM, version 2.3.4 most likely, so just find a beats audio only mod for 2.3.4 bases running Sense 3.0.
Or, as the previous poser says, you can install a whole ROM that already includes it. ARHD basically simulates a Sensation XE by removing the under-clocking on the CPU thats there stock bringing it up to 1.5 Ghz, adding beats audio, and overall just smoothing out the ROM. It looks the same as the stock ROM, it just works better.
The best thing to do is just make a backup of how it is now through recovery, then try stuff out and see what you like. You can always restore your backup and it will be right back to how it was before you did anything.

EDIT: Saw you came from ARHD. Sorry to hear about the bad luck. But yes, you can install mods without a full ROM.

Yeah I did tried 3 of the most recent arhd Rom, it is smooth and fast but has too many glitches on my phone. I tried installing the recommended radio it does fixed my signal issue, but after 3 days of using my phone keeps goin on a black screen when somebody calls me or text me so I decided to revert to stock

Interesting. Did you try turning the CPU back down to 1.2 GHz? I have ran 3.6.1 and only had one reboot before I switched to the beta kernel, never had any issues with 3.6.2 which came with the same kernel I upgraded to with 3.6.1, but I switched to bricked 0.91 kernel and its even better. Tried 3.6.3 and had a bunch of FC problems and issues so I restored back to 3.6.2.
Basically they all have worked well for me, but I've read of some people needing to stay at 1.2 GHz because of problems you have described.

I haven't tried restoring to 1.2ghz , I just restored my phone back to stock I got tired of trying all the versions and seems all of the versions I flashed had issues on my phone, don't get me wrong but I do love the speed and smoothness of arhd its just those fcs, unstable signal and not to mention the black screen issue. But like you said I haven't tried using different kernel I just used the one that came with the Rom and the other faux kernel that one of xda member suggested the beta 10. I even tried the insertcoin 3.3.9 and same issue with signal. I'm on tmobile carrier I don't know if that causes the signal issue with most of the Rom I flashed.

Well, I'm on T-Mobile also and have had no issues, thats strange. Did you flash the recommended radio also? Maybe you need to try a different one if so.
I really like the Bricked kernel, it runs faster/smoother and the battery life is better than the Faux kernels I used - at least what I've seen so far. I run Sense 3.0 so Im limited to Bricked 0.91, but its still plenty good from what I've seen. He is developing more for Sense 3.5 kernels at this point I think.
Anyway, if it was me, I would try one of the ARHD ROMs with a bricked kernel (the kernel can also affect your reception I believe). If you still have issues, try clocking it back to 1.2 Ghz. I too ran IC for a little while, but finally just settled back to ARHD for a few reasons.

Hi,
Have you tried a custom ROM with the original radio?
I know it won't be matched,but sometimes it's a needs must situation.
Use the radio that will give you the BEST signal.
It might just be that it's the only one that will work properly in YOUR area.

Hi,
So,what combination of ROM and radio was the best for signal?
And with your current set-up,do you ALWAYS have bad signals?
Or does it vary from area to area?
Hi quick question about the kernel choices in Android Revolution HD 6.6.1
It gives you the choice to choose between 3 kernels.
The first is the stock kernel, but my question is about the custom kernels:
Faux123 & Sebastian(something) -
Whats the difference?
Any one which is better?
Any advantage or disadvantages to either?
each has their own advantages / disadvantages. But its up to you to try them and see which one suits YOU !
I have always used sebastians Kernel, I found it gave great stability and good battery
Im currently using FAUX now, and i find it gives excellent performance...
There is no better / worse kernel, nor is there a better / worse ROM or anything else for that matter.
Its all down to the user and what they want from it, So try both, Test them for a few days and see which you prefer...
Both kernels are fantastic, with regular improvements and updates too !

Thanks for the responses!!!
Yeah I'm using the Faux kernel at the moment and have definitely noticed an improvement on performance when compared to the stock kernel.
Only thing I haven't got to check is battery life, if that holds up well then I'll be very happy. Probably give it a try for a week then try the Sebastian one for a week then decide.
Overall though really happy with the performance boost on the Faux kernel.. just hope it not a placibo effect.
Can I really decide between kernels while flashing Rom? Or do I have to download and flash it mzself?

Most custom ROMS will let you choose a kernel or stay with stock. I rather flash kernels on my own after flashing the Rom with stock.
