Desire Hd and Inspire 4G Roms...

I switched my Atrix for the Inspire ealier today and since my wife and kids are in bed, I finally got a chance to play with it. I got it rooted and everything but when I got to look at the available roms to flash, they mostly say "Desire HD and/or Ace Roms" before I had the Atrix I had the Evo and the roms were always listed what phone the rom was for
With that said, can someone please tell me if all Desire HD Roms are compatible with the Inspire or is it a select few?
And is RA Recovery available for the Inspire or is it just Clockwork?

If you check the Inspire 4G Android Development there are a lot of ROMs based off Desire HD ROMs but ported using a different kernel for the Inspire. Remember, the Desire HD and the Inspire are basically the same devices except for the sound drivers which is why the Roms need a proper kernel. For instance, if you were to flash a Desire HD rom it would work except it would probably have no sound; you would have to flash an Inspire 4G kernel with working sound. And to your second question I don't know what that Recovery is so sorry! Hope this explained things a bit haha.

Can you shed a bit more info on what you mean. I suspect you see your phone in phone identity as either a z710e or z710a, is that correct?

Whenever I try to flash both roms during the flash via CWR the installer says "sensation detected no sensation 4g files installed." Then when it boots up I go to check the phones ID and sure enough it's z710e.

ok, What version of CWR are you using. It should be the blue 4.0.1.4.
Are you also doing a full wipe before flashing?
Will try and work with you on this.
From my understanding the Z710e is the 4G model.

Using the CWR 4014 blue version. And yes doing complete and full wipe each time...I just reinstalled Coredroid and now the phone ID is showing sensation 4g but the build.prop file isn't showing the 4g files. I'm so lost. :/

That's because both of those Roms use European WWE Roms as a base, if you want your phone is to be identified as the sensation 4g on those Roms you have to edit your build prop, or flash a tmobile base custom ROM.....

If I use the coredroid rom will my phone still detect 4g and use the 4g network here in Kansas City?

Yes, all the roms here will work with Tmobile 4g speeds.
But remember some roms will have a H instead of 4g symbol in the status bar but you are still getting 4g speeds, but most roms have an addon zip to change it to a 4g icon.

So basically the phone is still 4g capable and uses 4g just doesn't show it under the build.prop files? Now another question is this, the files that are suppose to be for the 4g model from that rom...how do I get those installed? The installer isn't id my phone as 4g so it's not installing the 4g files.

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.
