Hey all,
I just bought an Inspire today and am very satisfied with it so far, but I would love to know if there is any way to root the stock 2.3.3 Rom that came with the phone. I didn't update it myself, it came pre-loaded with Gingerbread. I would like to root because I want to be able to get a Rom running that has Sense 3.0. Sorry if this question has already been asked, but I couldn't seem to find anything while sifting through plenty of threads...lol. Thanks again guys!

Thank you! Sorry to bother you any more, but is there any way you could direct me to where I can find out what the hack kit is and how to go about with the procedure? Thanks again!

Awesome. Now to try and decipher all that technical mumbo jumbo...lol. do I need the android sdk installed and what not?

The instructions are there, just read and follow them you will be fine. Most questions are answerEd in the thread. Its pretty simple even though it seems overwelming.
I was really skerd when I started, but after doing it was I realized I stressed over nothing.
Good luck with it and enjoy.

well you have 2 choices for rooting choose 1 & read up on them don't just jump right in & start rooting or you might regret it if something goes wrong ya digg
1.HTC Inspire/DHD Hack Kit V10
2.HTC Inspire 4G Simple One Click
I did my homework and read up on both threads posted above (nearly took an entire month to catch up those massive threads).
I went with the simple one click. The entire rooting process was pretty straight forward, as long as you can follow instructions.
I did not encounter a single issue.
Not to sound like to big a **** but if you can't use search or even just do plain old research you probably should have someone root your device for you. It is a very easy device to root, it just takes a few more steps than most. Look into the hack kit.
Hack Kit is by far the best! ALso join the IRC chan for additional help on the fly

Moved as not development.
So where's the idiots guide to the hack kit? The instructions aren't written for true newbs like me.

actually, they are really reallly watered down. Just take your time and read the directions as your doing it.
Maybe to educated users. I didn't get a number back when I entered rev Cid. What should I see? I had to learn how use the command prompt before I started. Should I plug in the USB before or after I boot the phone? Format the SD in or out of the phone? Those are the details that I'm talking about.

I agree 100%. If you can follow directions you can root via Bubby's root setup. I did it this weekend without any issues at all.

Flash a different rom. Gingerbeast and CM7 are my preferred flavors.

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.

really? you were able to find the hack kit, root and s-off, but you dont know where to find the radio and rom threads in the same exact forum section the hack kit came from?
you should probably do some more reading. this isnt something you should be taking lightly.

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.
