How to tell hboot and a few other things - HTC Inspire 4G

I'm currently working out a trade deal between me and another xda member for his inspire 4g. How can I tell if it has the gb hboot or not and if it does is it still root able or not. Thanks in advance

Boot into bootloader and you will see the hboot version. Shut down the down and select reboot bootloader...

[Q] Backing up stock Rom (TMOBILE UK)

Right, got my replacement Sensation with Tmobile UK branded rom on.
Having found that there are no stock Tmobile roms about, I would rather back everything up before I root this time.
How do I do this?
Once done, I'm happy to share with everyone else so no one else has to go through the same prob in the future.
If there is a kind dev out there who can help me package everything up properly all the better!!
Thanks
S-OFF and then backup using CWM

Thanks for the interest but I want to create a virgin backup that can be used to get back to full stock, not to S-Off

Yes, that is why I want to create one as that thread has no Tmobile UK Roms
So is this not possible? I'm sure there used to be ways of dumping off images of yr phone. May have been back on the Kaiser though.
Is there a reason why we have have so manly stock ruus but no Tmobile UK?

Anyone? Surely a Tmobile UK stock ROM would be useful to the community?

[Q] Rooting the Stock 2.3.3 Rom

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!

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.

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.

It's not too hard to find. The dev's name is attn1, and the tool's name is aahk. Just Google the two terms together.
EDIT: Gizmoe beat me to it.
I recommend just flashing a stock RUU from HTC. It'll just replace everything to stock (in the process losing everything on your phone, just like factory reset).
