Database Info

so i just Came to the Inspire 4G from the Samsung Fascinate (kinda)..

Hey guys, I'm elijahblake just got away from Cellular South and came back to ATT!!!
First off, damn i'm glad to be back with att and Glorious GSM
Secondly glad to be a way from that gimped Galaxy S...
This phone STOCK already blows away the Galaxy S hacked to hell and back..
So i'm pretty new to HTC, i've flashed a couple friends Desires for them to cm6 and cm7..
And so far i've noticed the process is a little different for the Inspire, but i've found several different instructions, i think i can figure it all out, Got the Goldcard done..
But my main question is maybe a little feedback on some of the ROMS..
I've had some experience with MIUI/cm7 and personally i kinda bought this phone because i knew it was supported my cm7.
I guess the main question in this long post, is cm7 fully functional on the Inspire 4G?
Also i was planning on rooting via this link: http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-permanently-root-htc-inspire-4g-with-hack-kit/
but it seems if i go that route, i won't be able to do a Nandroid of my Factory ROM.. Is that an issue with this phone or is the factory RUU for the Inspire 4G available somewhere?
Thanks in advance guys..
It's a little overwelming for someone coming from a showcase with very little dev support (b/c of the lack of source from Samsung) coming to a device where i actually have to make a decision on which awesome ROM i want to flash (that's fully functional)lol...
Look forward to helping out where i can and a BIG Thanx to all the AWESOME DEVS!!!

The ruu is available for the inspire and good luck! =}

i was planning on flashing cm7 after i root.. there's nothing wrong with it is there?

Its a non sense so if you dont want all the Sense features the CM7 is nice to use. Im using Phoenix non sense ROM and its pretty good. CM7 was also good when I had it. Maybe the best non sense ROM. But if you want a Sense ROM then go with CoreDroid. I loved that ROM but Sense kills alot of battery so I switched.

yeah i've flashed cm7 on a couple Desire's and honestly i've been wanting it since lol... I like it a lot, so does it improve performance over factory?
Yeah CoreDroid looks really cool too, i see he's got a lot of improvements in that.. but i really like AOSP especially cm7

Yeah try CM7 and if you dont like it go with Phoenix I love that ROM

well, of course the rooting process is snagging up... From that link i posted above part 2 step 4.. I opened terminal the first time and typed in the temp root perfectly fine exited out, opened up terminal again got the FC, tried to open it again and it won't open
And the phone is really laggy now like it's being bogged down, so i FClosed all the un needed processes running but it still won't open terminal emulator..
I rebooted temp rooted in terminal, closed, and same thing.. Rom Manager is installed and terminal emulator so i know the new ROM got flashed, b/c they weren't there before..
Just don't know why terminal emulator is giving me these problems
i'm supposed to type this in terminal emulator:
cd /data/local
./gfree -f
sync
/data/local/tmp/root
sync
would it be the same thing using adb? or would it be different commands?
It looks like terminal is opening now but it's just a blank white screen... i think i'm going to try and download it from the market??? I really don't get why it's doing this

Cm7 on the inspire works perfectly. Battery life, gps, and overall everything runs smoothly and effectively. I love it! Try it and you won't go back, good luck! (don't forget to flash gapps for the google apps)

well, this sux... I'm downloading the RUU from here
and then i'm going to do the one Click from HERE
Not sure why i didn't just try this method to begin with?? i'm a HTC noob

Cm7 installed and kicking ass

i already converted to the Sense 3.0 mms. this is in RC2
that RUU that is linked in that thread is the exact same RUU this rom is based on.
i dont have the problem any more, so it makes it kind of hard to troubleshoot or fix something i dont have...

I can't stand that stupid method. Can't they just develop a GUI like setcpu that's so much easier to use?

Try going to the DHD thread for Android Revolution and find any post by Sybregunne. He made a gui program called Daemon Controller. Works great. The download link is in his signature.

Revolution HD or Virtuous Unity?

Hi all, just curious if anyone has used both Rev HD & Virtuous Unity custom ROMS & has any feedback or a preference between the 2 before i do a full wipe once again just to immediately wipe again to go back to Virt. Unity. V.U is my fav by far but Rev HD sounds so stable & fast I'm gettin the itch to stray from my V.U. Just gotta have Sense 3.0. Thanks so much guys :')

I've been on both but once I tried virtuous I'm hooked. Its been the most stable for me. The new beta 2.3.4 version virtuous has is so smooth. I can't see myself going back to a 2.3.3 rom anytime soon

Thank u so much for the reply. I love love love my V.U. & can't see switching but i hear so much good bout Rev HD it got me curious. I'm still using v.1.31.0 & have been waiting for an update thru ROM Manager. Do u by chance have a link to the beta version ur using by chance? If not, no biggie, i can find it. And have u found a particular radio and/or kernel that works best for u with V.U.? And one last thing, u don't have to do a full wipe to upgrade to the beta version or no? Thank u so much again! :')

With the beta they're using a new base, so a full wipe is required. They're asking that you stick with the stock kernel during beta phase so they can track bugs a little better. I'm currently using 12.56.60.25x_26.10.04.03_M with the .0153 radio and getting awesome speeds and quick GPS locks

I believe when upgrading to any of there roms they say in the OP - wipe=support - no wipe=no support

I think you can go to the vu website. You will see more details there.

Well if you backed up first it won't be too difficult. Pull your battery, then put the battery back in and boot to HBoot (Vol+ and PWR), choose Recovery, choose backup and restore, and restore to your backup.
Or make sure you do a full wipe (Factory reset, wipe data, wipe system, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache) and try flashing the ROM again (but if it's a bad download you'll probably just bootloop again)
Or if you don't have a backup and the ROM still isn't working, then you need to get a different ROM on your SD. You can do this by putting the SD in a card reader, or booting to recovery, going to mounts/storage, and choose Mount USB Storage. Your computer will recognize it, put your ROM on the SD, select "Unmount" from recovery, now flash the new ROM
If you happen to have a PD98IMG.zip on your SD you're gonna need to get that off before any of this will work though, cause Bootloader will just continually try to flash that. Easiest way to do that is pull the SD until you select Recovery from HBoot, then reinsert the SD. Or else you'll need to get a card reader or another device that will read your SD, delete the PD98IMG.zip, reinsert the SD to your device, boot to recovery, flash away

Thanks for all the input. I did have that file so i pulled the card so i could get back into recovery & did a nandroid restore & deleted it. It wad a bad download too. So i downloaded it again from a different link & it came in 2 zips, one 390mb & the other like 10mg so i did a full wipe again & when i flashed it said cant read sd again & failed. Both zips. So restored again & here i am running great but w/o beta. Any suggesions?

Inspire 4g cwm and DHD ROMS..

Well just got my Inspire 4g, I went from atrix, LG thrill, then my inspire I really love it! Within 30 minutes of owning it Im rooted and running miui.us flawlessly so far.
My main question is that I see Rom manager says Desire HD can I use it still or do the two phones run on different stuff?
Also can I flash DHD roms I've read I can with an audio fix where can I find that or ...

Lol Thanks for your answer but maybe you don't understand I'm running miui with stable oc and all..My question wasn't if I could download Rom in our dev section I was asking if rom manager worked with flashing on phones I would like to make something if it doesn't work on our phone .
Example.
I don't know if anyone has an Acer a500 but in the market they have a premium app called Acer recovery. That APP downloads/flashes roms, recovery files, themes, kernels, fixxes, and other needs that is what I would like to do for this device.
Sorry for the confusion.

you can create whatever you like, it has been tried before, but the de-facto happens to be rom manager.
i would go out on a limb by saying that 85% of flashing is done via downloading the rom zip to the phone and booting into recovery. its kind of what people have been bred to do at this point. rom manager doesnt work well every time, so creating something unique would be a hard niche to snag

Yea I agree I use Rom manager only for a couple of roms back with the incredible but all ways wanted something else.. that I can grab links from the net. Id like to do an app that would do webhosting with updated regularly updated Roms, kernels, radios, themes you know how it is checking xda and Rom manager for stuff it gets tedious and would be great for a app that gives u everything with a push of the button of course is have to find help for such an app great idea ill start development as soon as I can.

Got to agree with PG. I even tell people that use certain rom's to avoid rom manager as it doesn't always work. As for another app of this sort, the hard part is getting the Dev to update it. Mainly sense you can't just add everything without asking permission from each of the dev for the rom, theme, kernel, ext.

[Q] How can I boot multiple roms?

Hi, I want to know how to boot more than one rom using Boot Manager... i've tried to do it numerous times but each time I just get frozen on my carrier logo on reboot. What partitions do i need setup? I'm a bit of a noob so if it's really complicated can you simplify it. Thanks in advance.

Dude, I made a thread on this - did you need to make another one?
I've had no luck either... Tried it on about 5 different ROMs, but never works! Have you tried formatting your memory card?

Are you sure?
Boot manager app has given official support for our device. And I have seen proof of it working - on youtube on a Desire S booting CM7 & MIUI.
Also bootmanager cleverly overrights the kernel with the new boot.IMG each time you flash.
