[Q] How do I change ROM? - HTC Inspire 4G

Right now my Inspire is on the GingerBread MOD
Im hearing things about way better MODS than the GingerBread
Can anyone suggest me how to change MODS without bricking my phone and suggest me which MOD is the best?
Thank You.

Is your phone rooted?

Obviously the phone is rooted, the op has gingerbread on it.
Op you don't have a gingerbread mod, it is a Rom. Roms in general are pretty much the same, each chef just adds tweaks here and there to their liking.

If you change to CM7, you will not have gingerbread until it's reflashed. IMHO there isn't such a thing as "the best rom". Every rom has there unique features to them. You just have to find the one which suits your needs and wants.

that is not true, you will see H, 3G, E on the phone.
if you check the build.prop file (download astro)
you will see hsdpa, hsupa, hsxpa all enabled there

No sir I havent touched that. Is there a thread you can link me 2 so I can try it?
You don't need to edit build prop on that Rom. Maybe try another radio.

I flashed back to the original radio and now im 0.62mbps and 0.25mbps. Anyway I can make it faster then this. For example a better ROM recommendation with Radio?

What app are you using to test your speeds? Maybe its set to a server that is too far from your location?

The rom has nothing to do with your youtube app.
Your prolly the first one to report this.
And obviously, you can download the latest version from android market.
What a waste, virtuous is a perfectly working rom, but if you wanna take out all the joy and return to stock then go ahead.

To learn how to flash a rom you first need to learn to search. Look at the sticky in the Inspire 4G General section. It will teach you how to flash a Rom.

Then even after you get help doing it, I would suggest you read up and try and uderstand what you are doing. You very well could end up having a brick that you can't do anything with except look at.
Miui is VERY buggy and cap, don't bother. Looks amazing but I'm back on CM7 after trying two different MIUI versions last night.

SEE YA!
I was actually really impressed with MIUI. I thought I was going to hate it because of the iphoneish look to the UI so I never bothered to try it but once I did it impressed me & I got the best benchmarks & speed tests out of it than any other rom. But I love my VU & sense :')

To give you a simple answer, flash a custom Rom. If that Rom doesn't have the "H+" icon, that doesnt mean anything. You still have your "4G"

The only way thing you can do is try out different ROMs and different radio/RIL combos.

Judging by your sig, you are on your phone. Get off the phone and go to the PC. Things are more hidden on the phone and the search function really sucks.

Go to the radio thread in the inspire 4g android development forum. Its a sticky so press the stickies tab on the app. You will find that radio thread and all the information is in there. Just read it.

I was afraid you would ask that
I know its just a matter of changing desire hd to inspire 4G.
I dont have access to a computer and doing a search from the cell is kinda a pain.
Do a search in the dev section, there are several threads/pages about changing the build prop - mainly they'll talk about editing to get better data speeds. A few will mention how to change the branding.
You can download rom toolbox (which is the only one I remember right now) that has an option to change the build prop.
