Most all of the ROMs are set up for the Desire. I would like to rename it back to the Inspire. I have tried the /system/custom/CID/default.xml and it doesn't have the permissions to allow this. I tried to chmod to 755 default.xml through the command line tool and doesn't allow me to do so. I have heard of a apk that or mod that does this for you.
Does anyone know of this, and can give me a link to find it?

Sense or AOSP ROM?

For what it's worth, a clean install of the latest GB RUU will show your Inspire as "Desire HD" in "settings". I really don't know what the big deal is. If you forget what your phone is, look at the back. If it has an AT&T logo, it's an Inspire; if it's a HTC logo its a DHD (unless you're this guy: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1215759).

You still have to turn the radio security back on. Which I'm not sure how to do.

That sure seems like a lot of trouble compared to the iPhone restore,, Someone should make something so we can create a backup of everything on the phone before we start to modify it and then if we ever mess the phone up we can then just restore it.. Maybe one day huh
So lost
Ok I have downloaded s-on , do I put that on the sd card?
I wasn't successful in unrooting based on the link you provided. The settings simply stated that I do not have permission to change from S-on to S-off...anyone else tried going back to complete stock?
Use the guide that is stickied at the top.

Problem is I don't have root anymore. I really just need to get a new phone is my goal lol
You could search for Shortfuse + SuperOneClick here at XDA.
SuperOneClick will give you Temp Root on the Inspire...probably long enough to fix the issue and as soon as you reboot...the root will clear and nobody will know the difference.
I know SoC gives root long enough to enable sideloading on the Inspire...worth a shot.

I tried but couldn't find a link. And I can't download anything from the market so I may be screwed in that. Will AT&T care if it says Desire HD?

Market doesn't work for me for some reason tried to fixed it but no avail.
It sounds to me like you unrooted it but left the downgrade ROM on it. If so, you'll now need to get the official HTC RUU (Ace Cingular US) and run that to restore it to stock AT&T.

its says desire HD in stock form out of the box I believe, so changing it to inspire 4g will be wrong(I'm 99%sure it says desire HD stock). Pull build.prop from factory ruu and see what it says

My stock Inspire says, HTC Inspire 4G. There is also a small TM to the right of Inspire, for trademark.

Mine does too, but I'm basing my advice on the fact that the OP mentioned that the audio didn't work either.
Even HTC sync sees my phone as a Desire HD, but the "about phone" info shows "HTC Inspire™ 4G"
Phone is still bone stock (aside from apps) BTW
and??lol
it says desire hd by default, its like that.
But you can change it too.
I got mine from at&t two weeks ago. And when it was stock, straight out of the store, under phone info it read Desire HD. You will be fine. Pinky promise.
I got a new one and it actually says Inspire lol

Hi there, one of my friend has a HTC desire and a HTC sensation, and both comes with a stock ROM that includes a program called "task manager". I'm wondering why my desire s does not comes with that? Do I need to download from HTC website by myself? My friend told me that the program is from HTC and it is include even in stock ROM. Please help.
you can get it from somecustom ROMs such as LBC MOD, Virtuous Unity...
Download the ROM from Desire S Android Development sub-forum, unzip it and get the taskmanager.apk from system/app, copy it to your phone with stock rom and install it.

From Russia with love by my HTC Desire S
Hello I rooted my Tmobile US Sensation and installed Insertcoin rom. I really like the Rom. I need to download a banking app from the market however when I try to it tells me this app is not availible to our device (HTC Sensation z710e) I understand that it thinks I am using a Euoropean Sensation because thats what the rom is setup for. I have done some research and thought I could change a file to reflect I have a TmobileUSA Sensation instead of the z710e... I have ES file explorer so I can edit a file. From reading here I thought it was the build.prop file but that doesn't have anything in it that looks correct to me.
Anyways I am sure this is an easy fix any help would be greatly apprecited
This can be done by altering the following line in: /system/build.prop
ro.product.model=
From whatever it was to: ro.product.model=HTC Sensation Z710e (Or whichever you want)
Reboot and all is well.
Download Market Enabler from the market and it will enable you to use any market yuo want to download your prefered software.

I changed mine from ro.product.model=HTC Sensation Z710e
to
ro.product.model=HTC Sensation 4G
Also tried Market Access and Market Enabler non of these will let me download my banking app. It still thinks im using the europe one. I have tried rebooting.. Any other ideas?
Solved this on my own by copying the build.prop from Android Revolution rom and putting it into the insertcoin rom. Not sure if this has any negative side effects that I don't know about but it's working now.
I would suggest using a program such as notepad++ and comparing the 2, just to see if there are any major differences
It's the ROM fingerprint that you need to change as that's what is checked. You just need to edit that line in the build.prop to the one from your region's ROM

Thanks for the help guys

Installing an ruu will unroot it. Root is access the os layer /system and nothing else.

Why would you put a stock DESIRE HD ROM on an INSPIRE just to hope that HTC will think you have a DHD and give you the update for the DHD? Well they won't anyways. You do realize a stock DHD ROM is not 100% compatable with the Inspire? They do have slight hardware differences.
Gene Poole has a rooted version of the new DHD ROM with adjusted drivers for the Inspire in the Development section. If that is what you want in the end then just install it. Here is the link.

Only problem with that is, other users, like myself, have gotten a bootloop after installation. It will boot, but will constantly loop on the "HTC - quietly brilliant" screen. Last I checked, there was no solution as of yet. If Gene Pool can figure out what is causing it and correct it, I will most likely try flashing it again.

If you really want to run this stock base, I would go into fshami's Sens 3.0i thread and ask Wild Child if you could test his soon to be released stock version of this base. It has all the S's- smooth, stable, speedy, solid..... I'm sure he wouldn't mind another good tester.
