Inspire BACK TO STOCK BUT STILL HAS..... - HTC Inspire 4G

Unknown Sources LOL LOL LOL.
Just wanted to know if i just got lucky, or if this happends to everyone....I actually am pleased because i missed the applanet feature. I was going to push a program when i noticed i still had it.....
If it is not a fluke, then please spread the word around that if anyone wants to go back to true stock (unrooted), you can still keep the UNKNOWN SOURCES.

You couldn't pay me enough to go back to, and stay stock.
And applanet is warez.

you didnt happen to go back to the stock rom that now includes side loading through a new update did you?

If you went back to stock but kept your data partition intact, then the setting will stick. Did you wipe data?

yes i did a full data and cache wipe.
Guys don't get me wrong, i would LOVE to stay rooted..............for many reasons....but i just have had the worse luck in the world with my GPS not working on any platform i have tired (i.e. CM7, TPC, and anotherone i forgot the name)....
I don't blame you for never wanting to go stock.....it sucks....but hey, at least my GPS works and now i can at least use applanet

BTW, the best one i liked actually was GINGERBREAD BEAST!!!!!!
Unfortunately the GPS wasn't working as it should.

GPS works on GingerBeast just fine. It's weird tho... If you open navigation...it will continue to say "waiting for location" ...Disregard this...go ahead and load the address..Connects within seconds.

My problem has to do with the GPS going on and off, on and off.....
GPS Status would show like 7 sattelites but still wouldn't "LOCK"...which is totally weird....
With my STOCK ROM, it connects within 4 seconds....
I have my "GOLDEN PARACHUTE" in being able to go back to STOCK so if anyone has any other ROM they want me to try which will be either "CLOSE" to stock or will work find with the GPS, then let me know and i will re-root again.

Actually AT&T updated the inspire today to allow for side loading.

You do realize by using applanet you are stealing money from the devs that put hard work and effort into making apps. I just want to make sure that you know pirating apps is not a good thing.

I learned from that i Used to use applanet but one day a nice little bill of $1000 came and i asked and called 100 times and it ended up some thing with applanet charging my carrier and anyway the stupid **** is always down

The sideloading setting got backed up to your Google account from when you had your rooted ROM. When you went back to stock and signed back into Google, all your settings got restored.. including sideloading

No, read the first post on this page. AT&T updated the Inspire to allow sideloading. I have it too and I've never rooted my device.

I'd sure like to know how they pulled this off. It is a bit disturbing to think they could make a change of this type in the system without us knowing that it even happened.

Just shows you what kind of pull Amazon has. They likely turned it on so that you can use the Amazon App store.
Interesting thing is that I have a device going back for exchange and 1 of the questions they asked me is "Have you downloaded any software/apps to your phone?" I said "Sure, what is the point of having a smart phone without apps" They then asked "Where did you download the apps from?" and I responded "The Android Market powered by Google of course. Why is there anywhere else to get apps I thought that was the only place." He then said, "It is, I was just checking" Of course that was a week ago, so things seem to have changed.

Yup, 1 minute from downloading left. LOL, exciting stuff happening all over XDA today.
i really wish i wasn't so stubborn on waiting for camera and mms.
I am still waiting too.... but its ok, I am happy trying them out and seeing where we are at. I will be more than happy whenever it happens
2.1 uh oh
Tehe, thus far I've held off on the 2.1 builds because stuff hasn't been working, I guess since I'm backing up my device and switching ROM builds today anyway I'll have to just accidentally pop this on there and see what happens :-D
Edit: Was unable to get the Market to work at all. No FC message, just fails to start.
Doesnt have all market apps

Just because I'm straight and don't feel like saying "I love you." I guess you could substitute "Alligator food" in there too.

Can anyone confirm if the Verizon FIOS Mobile Remote app is or isn't available in the Market with this ROM?
Wow, this ROM FREAKING FLIES.
The pinch to zoom on the home screen is blazing fast. I am extremely impressed. 2.1 on our devices is going to be awesome. Thanks again for your hard work Gbhil!!!!
**Edit**
Location, like all other 2.1 ROMs I've tried though, is off. It initially said I was in Kansas City, which is right, but it quickly changed to "Washington" which is what the other roms said, which DEFINITELY isn't right

To add to my previous post, the location services are working fine, it just seems (like in other 2.1 roms) that the location noted in the HTC home screen clock is what isn't working properly.
I get the correct location returned in one of my test apps, and see myself fine in the Google maps v4, so I dunno...maybe there's something missing with the HTC Location Services apk?
Oh yeah, and SetCPU is awesome on this rom too
would i have to wipe this coming from fresh rom??
i had force close on "3g Update"?!?!
I just noticed: txt messages after daylight savings got a bit screwy for some people, where messages would be stamped an hour earlier and be out of order. Now Ive sent and recieved a few txts and they are showing the correct order and timestamps.
Anyone else?

Froyo plays well with others!!!

I flashed froyo on top of an already set up 1.6 and 2.1 rom's (seperately) and well it went well. booted right up. still had all my apps. whole point of this...I dunno its fun. I got to play with some of my apps. no Google apps carried over. super user was also gone. root explorer wouldnt
open. I was going to install su so I could oc. but root explorer was fc. most of my apps opened and functioned properly, except for no data connection. but I was able to call my boss and hang up on her. maybe a developer can do something with this info. this was sent after restoring back from froyo

What iPhone does have is the ability to drop calls and call distortion. It's something that most android phones will never experience...
I flashed the jmod Froyo and couldn't get it to recognize the sd card or establish a data connection. If you have one that does all that, apps, google apps AND hangs up on ppl I would love to have a link to dl it. Thanks!

Wow, AT&T blocks non market apps?

That is so pathetic. Just another reason to hate that company.
Anyway...my friend just got an inspire and is new to android. I'm just helping with the phone (I have a verizon android phone) and realized that AT&T finds someway to screw with consumers again. So, is there a way to get around this and install non market apps?

You can use sideload wonder machine http://forum.androidcentral.com/android-sideload-wonder-machine/
Or root the phone and load a custom ROM that has non market apps enabled
the sideload wonder machine method is sipmple the only drawback is that the apps wont receive updates like they would from the market, if I'm not mistaken.
Also if I remember correctly if the app is to big for side load wonder machine, you can use adb push. There are always work arounds.

That's why it's such a sweet feeling when you uninstall their application through TiBu........
You can also consider rooting the device. I did mine with no issues at all. It's VERY easy, just time consuming. From start to finish, took me about 35 minutes. I already had EVERYTHING I needed to do this though, including the ROM I wanted.

You want good go to Amazon App store, in the past few days I got a full version of Shazam and then SoundHound. Both have full unlimited use with no expiration, also if you change rom's you can redownload them from your account for as long as you have the account. They give away a full paid app everyday on there.

Lost my Captivate...What Now....

So today I left my captivate in a Cab....and definitely will not be able to get it back I flashed a custom rom and forgot to reload Lookout Security or some service to track my phone, so no luck there...
Question: What should I do now. I definetly need to buy another smartphone, but the question is...which one? Should I wait for something like the Galaxy S2? (Could still be a ways from launch). I live in Canada and I am on Rogers. Should I just pick up another Captivate? Your thoughts/Suggestions.

Now, remember Plan B and use it the next time you lose the phone. It works. I didn't lose my phone, but I tried it out. GPS reception in my home is poor, so it showed the phone in the wrong room, but certainly in the correct house, close enough. It's not something you want to leave on your phone, because it sends a constant stream of text messages to your email with the location of the phone, but if you lose the phone, it will show you where it is, assuming any GPS signal can be received and it has network access.

The last time I got this issue I didn't flash the correct order of zips from the wallet thread. Upon doing so everything was fixed. I know how to install wallet, I just didn't know if changing your build prop to Sprint made it any easier since they were talking about updating from the market no problem. That was my only question.
