HTC Inspire running slow, freezing, and not responding well to touch - HTC Inspire 4G

I have a HTC Inspire 4g, AT&T, 16gb microSD Sandisk card, no root, no roms.
It boots slow, but i've looked around and that seems to be normal.
Sometimes itll just freeze, anywhere from 3-15 seconds
Sometimes the screen and sound keep going, but the touch cuts off completely. half the time the buttons at the bottom work, the other half they dont, and i have to click the button at the top to turn the screen off and back on to fix it.
Sometimes when the screen is off, i click the top button, and the orange light goes on, and it clicks, but the screen stays black.
Sometimes it just freezes and i have to reset. Some of those times i have to take the battery out to reset it.
Sometimes it lags, hard, like the keyboard freezes, and i go ahead and finish typing, up to a whole sentence, and after 5-15 seconds all the text i type pops up on the screen, but i get no haptic feedback like i do when its not lagging.
Things load slow, the gps takes forever to connect, if at all, and it won't pick up wifi even when i'm well within range, and my mom's first gen ipod touch picks it up in the same spot at the same time with no problem.
Everything is up to date.
Anyone got any ideas? I thought about rooting it and putting a rom on, but idk if itll make a difference.
Its not covered under warranty anymore.
Pretty frustrating in general.

Best bet is to not root and have it checked via warranty. If you root you void warranty and if custom rom dont fix issue your stuck with it. Tho you can unroot with ace hack kit.

How do I do that? And what all will i lose if i do? as far as apps, contacts, call history, pics/vids, and messages go?

You do that by going to the home screen>settings>storage>factory reset...I had the same problem and when I rooted and flashed a custom Rom it was resolved

Oh and you will not lose anything on your sd card or on your Sims card. If I was you I would back up my contacts. Follow these directions for that. Go to home screen> app drawer> find the "people" app and tap it> menu> tap import/export>export to sd card.
After you do the factory reset do this: home screen> app drawer> find the "people" app and tap it> menu> tap import/export>import from sd card, and all your contacts will be back like be4

Or your contacts will be restored back once you log back in Google Play thats if youve made and account with them.

Supposing the factory reset fixes my problems, imma root it. Anyone got a recommendation for a ROM? I'd like the latest version of android I can get that works fully, but more than anything, I want the best performance i can get out of the phone.
Backing up stuff now, bout to reset it.

And it looks to have fixed it. Thanks to everyone that helped. If anyone has a rom recommendation, let me know

For best performance try cyanogenmod 7. Truely I can vouch for the Android Revolution HD Rom. It's a sense 3.0 Rom, and it has android 2.3.5 gingerbread(very smooth). I can say that right now, there are no fully working android 4.0 ICS or 4.1 Jellybean Roms(Release candidate).
Sent from my Inspire 4G using xda app-developers app

Depends on if you wanna keep sense or not. Cyanogenmod 7 and Revolution HD are good choices. Best thing you can do is flash around and find what suites you. If your wanting to check out some of the latest android versions like ICS I'd say give exits aospx a try, and keep your eye on the latest jellybean ROM called Jelly Time in the Desire HD thread...its exploded practically over night and is looking to be a daily driver in no time the way the devs are working over there.

For future restores
For me, my contacts and calendar are saved via my gmail account. Upon restoring to factory settings, or installing a new custom rom, and setting my account up in the phone, all of this data is automatically restored. For apps and their settings, Titanium Backup has been the lifeline for me. It has saved a lot of time and effort. Check it out and see if you like it. There is a free and paid version (which I paid for the extra options and to support further updates) on the Market.
Custom ROMS are individually unique for user experience. No one can really tell you which one is best (well...we could but it would be our own personal bias based on our individual preferences). You need to keep trying them until you get one you like. As always mentioned, nandroid backups can be your best friend.

That honestly sounds like a sleep death, which definitely should NOT happen on a stock rom... If you can I would definitely take that phone back to ATT or wherever you got it to get it replaced.

Could a app cause this? Think it started after I downloaded ICS keyboard. The screen sometimes goes black when I unlock it, but its not a deep dark black like the sleep mode, when this happens if I hit the back button, it fixes it. So I switched which ics keyboard o use now, so hope it stops both issues

i had 2 stock sgh-i727r completely unmodified do this. i did factory resets and issues re-occurred. could have been app related but i was having it with no apps after.
didnt bother troubleshooting more than a hour, took it to rogers as both phones had problems < 15 days of getting the phone
first one lasted just 12 hours, rogers store did a DOA replacement and got it right away.
2 weeks later, my replacement sgh-i727r had the same problem. called rogers, got my replacement in 3 days.
so far so good.
rogers chalked it up to hardware issue after asking if i had rooted the phone each time.
This happened to me for the first time ever, yesterday.
I received a text. Phone made a notification sound, but then the screen would not come on. I could hear keys and notification sounds, but no visuals.
I took the battery out and now all is ok again.
I am on a stock 2.3.5 Rogers ROM.
if this problem persists, follow these steps.
Backup apps with titanium backup, but only the ones with information u really need
export contacts to sd
download darkside to sd
boot into cwm and flash darkside
reboot the phone BUT RIGHT BACK INTO ODIN.
Flash the stock rom or one of the pre-rootex ones
Problem solved :-D

This EXACT thing happened to my skyrocket and my friends on our bone stock phones.. We have both since flashed quick wiz rom onto our phone and has not happened a single time... The problem? ATT Sucks... just flash your phone
This started happening to me today and it has happened more than 4 times now :/ I get the notification... BLN comes on but I can't turn on the screen. If I click the power button or volume buttons, the backlights go off for a few seconds and then come back on. This is getting really annoying

3. Lots of force close
4. Signal strength lower
5. Gmail not autochecking for emails

Have you tried factory resetting and clearing data and cache from recovery? That has helped most.

I helped another user with the multi fc's by doing what i normally do when things get out of hand. I flashed darkside superwipe then odin the ics leak. This has the least amount of issues in my opinion and I've tried everything out there. No shut down freeze, no intermittent data loss, 0 lag. Its a clean start and its the best starting point imho.

Except for no 4. Signal strength lower where I agree with you, everything else works perfectly.
I would suggest a new flash after a full swipe

1, 3, 5, 7, 8) You need to Factory Reset or reflash using the proper directions (I don't have any of these)
4) Probably the same, mine is the same and sometimes end up with 1 bar more than on GB.
2) Part of ICS
6) If you keep holding the volume down button it lowers the volume, then goes to vibrate, THEN goes to silent.
Good news. I think I got it all working great now. Did the darkside superwipe and then reload. Most issues resolved except for the scrolling wallpapers and signal. Thanks for all the help guys.

Issues with ICS LEAK and EXCHANGE
Anyone else notice this? I set up the corporate email and everything works fine until i try to either edit or disable my signature, at which point, every time i send a message, it will not go out unless i manually "refresh". If I leave the "stock" signature, everything is ok. I have tried multiple ICS roms and have the same issue with all of them. Normally this would not bug me, however, I have been using the ICS leak as my daily driver and really need to change the signiture.
Thanks!
I don't have real issues with my ics except one big annoying one, the contacts!!
it hangs...i can't do anything..I froze it and installed go contacts, it works better but if i want to add new contact or add a number to existing contact it FC's after hanging for a while!! anybody seen this contacts problem!!

Mytouch 4g slide keeps freezing

Hey all, i don't know if there's already a thread about this but i did a quick search and didn't really find one about my problem.
Anyways, my girlfriend has a mytouch 4g slide and it keeps freezing on her. If she's in a call, she can stay in the call but won't be able to hang up or use the screen in any way until a restart. She is completely stock. This is the second mytouch for her with the same problem. Any ideas as to why this is happening?

Well when I was stock, I never had any problems like this. I have heard about people having screen freezes with regards to the call screen, however. It could easily be one of the apps that she downloaded. It might be worth it to try a factory reset if the problem is persistent. Not to mention that sounds like a pretty annoying issue.
Yeah, we tried a factory reset before and it didn't work.

If a factory reset doesn't solve your problem, you have two options:
Root and install a custom rom (could be a stock rom problem, even though it shouldn't be)
Get it replaced under warranty
is the device completely frozen, or can she get the screen to turn on by pressing the trackpad or something? come to think of it, the sensor doesn't seem to work perfectly on my device, so sometimes when i want to hang up a call, i need to press the trackpad to get the screen to turn on. i have never had the device become totally unresponsive tho.
Well, she says the screen is on but nothing happens when she taps it. The only way so far to get her phone to work again is a battery pull.
This is already a warranty replaced phone for the same problem. I would root her phone, but she is in San Francisco and I'm not. She is also not very tech savvy so she can't do it herself.

Have her try using GO! Dailer/Contacts. I know this issue is based within the Call Out screen. But try using GO! It can also an out of Ram issue. On stock, the more widgets you use. The worse the phone gets. You'll see that HTC Logo all the time. My Uncle has this phone, and he's 100% stock. He gets freezes, and the HTC Logo screen after every app. Since the phone has the highest priority in a call, in can be using to much RAM. Then the phones doing a Rosie reboot with out the HTC scrreen.
If she wants to. Install Zeam Launcher. She won't have any Sense widgets. But it'll free up about 120Mb of Ram. Then place the call, and see if it lags.

After a warranty replacement for my old phone, I haven't had time to fight rooting and have been experiencing similar issues... Memory mgmt seems to be cause. Ive removed some apps and it has reduced issues.
On initial use of phone, I reset it, inserted a full battery and followed the general "let it set" rules for a fresh rom install. At first, all was great, everything worked perfect. But as I added apps, it grew less stable. Also seeing phone freeze when rebooting into recovery... Eek. Tried multiple sd cards, batteries, to no avail.
Gonna call for another replacement. Ugh. Wrty is up in a couple months...

I've had a couple of freezes happen to me during phone calls and I realize what the problem was. It was apps automatically downloading in the background from the Play Store. If an auto update for apps is happening and I receive a phone call at the same time my phone will become unresponsive for a few minutes.

So this GO! Dialer, would it help with the freezing issue? I don't see how using another app would help with the memory issue. Does Zeam Launcher require root?

HTC Inspire 4G reboots alot

My HTC Inspire 4G reboots too damn much, it's been like this for weeks and am only writing this now because i have been patient but now i'm at the point of throwing this thing out of the window. I've tried many roms but no matter what it reboots, the rebooting is not constant like on a loop or something like that but i'll be either browsing, listening to music, playing games, etc and it'll reboot, it reboots more than 5-8 times a day sometimes more. As i said before i've tried many roms from Android Revolution HD, aospX 1.0.0-BR2 - 4, Unofficial Cyanogenmod 9 by PipelinerArd, Smartdroid Reloaded, and IceSense V Beta 3 and no matter what it reboots. Is there anyone that can please help me?
As i was typing this i was watching netflix on the inspire 4g and it rebooted on me again for no reason.......i swear i wanna slam this ish on the damn floor .
Try a stable Gb rom after a full wipe.
Wipe data, wipe dalvik, wipe all partitions (except sd card).
If you get a reboot, then try it without the sd card.
Sent from a dream.
I did try a stable GB rom, i tried Android Revolution HD 7.0.4. Is there a stock 2.3.3 rom for inspire 4g that i can try? I've also removed the sd card but it still rebooted. I'm currently using aospX 1.0.0 BR4.
With so many roms and still have reboots its a sign of a dying battery. Its a known symptom of a battery about to go.

My gf's has the same exact problem, and she has replaced her battery but it didnt help at all. Ive tried multiple kernels/roms but nothing helps. Im thinking it has something to do with her wifi because she says it happens almost always when she is at work or home (connected to wifi). Could flashing a different radio help this or are they strictly for data/voice/text?
I would be more willing to blame hardware for this, maybe the phone has taken water damage or been dropped. Check and clean all connections on the device (sdcard, simcard, battery, usb, wifi antenna, radio antenna). Flashing different radios is not the first route to take for fixing this problem. But if you want to do this, first start with re-flashing the current radio (obviously doing an md5 check on it while it's on the phone before doing so) and start from there.
I read a reply in another thread about this saying the sim card was the culprit and after replacing it he didnt have anymore reboots...I had her go get a new one, I'll report back if this fixes the problem or not.
Just saw this thread I have also been having reboot issues diff roms seem to help on cm9 now and it only does it a couple times a day now instead of the 7 or more like before. I have replaced the battery, flashed many diff kernels. I would love to find out the culprit next step is to tear apart the phone and check connections

Just wanted to update everyone with this problem, after my gf put her new sim card yesterday morning she hasnt had a single reboot yet...normally she would have had 10+ by now so I'm pretty confidant that was the problem.
Well i currently don't have a sim card in the phone so i only use it for everything else but a phone. what are radios for?
Oh and also i've noticed that the phone doesn't reboot while in recovery (i'm using 4ext) i've left my phone in recovery for a while because i needed to transfer a big file (over 10gb) to my micro sd and it never reboots and now everytime i need to transfer a big file to the phone i go to recovery, the reason i say this is because if it was a hardware issue wouldn't it do it anywhere including recovery. Also doesn't the phone creates a log that perhaps can help find out what the problem is?
So your phone is having reboot problems, but your not using it as a phone (not on a network, no SIM card)
Have you replaced the battery yet?

Nope not yet, have to buy one but at the moment i have no money but when i do i'm gonna buy a new battery and see. But i truly hope that the problem is not hardware and that it's just the battery.
I would recommend buying a battery from Amazon or somewhere else online. At&t tends to rip people off. I had a friend who bought two batteries and a charger for them for 25 on Amazon

Okay, New update. Switched out my SIM card for a new one and it seems to reboot less. Key word is less; so it did not fix the reboot so I will downgrade to a more stable gingerbread Rom. Hopefully that will fix it. Just 9 months till I can get a new phone!

Glad to hear that your inspire 4g reboots less, Mine is still rebooting but it has been rebooting less ever since i installed Cyanogenmod 7.2.0. What i don't get is doesn't android creates a log file right before a crash (reboot) and shouldn't that log tell us what the problem could be?
Downloaded app so I can check the logs easier. Next restart I catch I will make sure to check the log. Can't be sure which log is the restart at this moment, but most of my close logs look to be a problem with java

Do me a favor and download from the play store and app called "Android System Info" it is free, and will give you easy access to the log files.
If you can catch your phone rebooting, try and look up the log right after it and copy and paste the info you find here.
I am still waiting for mine to reboot I put the app on mine so I could look at the log from the reboot, and since then my phone hasn't rebooted.
It's like it knows its being watched.

POOF!

POOF!
I've been waiting for this. Thanks. I will report back soon! Downloading now. First!

Awwww. I just had a similar experience. I dropped mine down a service elevator shaft... Don't ask. I still don't know how it happened. So far so good on the ROM. I'll tinker more in the morning.
Hi, not is just me but screenshot not working, power+home.
When doing the picture, the keyboard does not show smile icon etc, just dark keyboard. That's all I found so far
LOL I'm not sure I'm brave enough to be the first to try this out. XD

Screenshots work perfectly for me. I did notice that the keyboard smile icons were missing, I will look into that.

I just meant that I've been out of the flashing scene for about a year until recently and this phone has a different method, plus the fact that it took me 2 days to get everything backed up, set back up how I like, etc. I've lost my nerve I guess. I used to be a serial flasher of roms back in the Eris days. New rom that nobody's tried yet? Sure thing. These days I'm even hesitant to flash something if it's tried and true and nobody is seeing any problems. Plus the fact that my hardware is messed up. (I dropped it in water twice by accident and the screen also broke in a separate incident)

Damn, still working after water twice, nice! Just do a backup before, so if you don't like it, you can restore everything you had. And, if your S-ON, remember to flash boot.img separately.

Yeah, it's a good thing I always keep rice in the house in easy reach. But the phone is fine except that neither camera works. Pretty annoying seeing as the camera is so awesome on the HOS.
Will be definitely trying this, I was wondering, you think this might help my losing signal issues, getting the X all the time it's driving me nuts lol. I am with Cincinnati Bell but i think they work through T-mobile. Anyway thanks for this bud much appreciated.
ROM looks great man, downloading now and will flash tomorrow. Hope I don't have the WiFi issue anymore, reaaally wanna use this
I'm having the same gps problem I have with Viper; when you go to a site thru Chrome that desires location access, gps never turns on! It turns on for Maps and other things when you test it, but not through Chrome. Browser works tho, strangely...

Sounds like a Chrome issue maybe. I haven't touched any GPS items yet, so its either Chrome, or something T-Mobile jacked up.

I just did another clean flash and i still can't get screenshot to work (power+home). I tried [ROM][S4][MAY8]V1.6 T-Mobile HTC One S JellyBean Stock/Rooted/deodexed/ and screenshot work. Then I did another clean flash (full wipe) of your ROM, screenshot still not working.

Are you pressing it quickly or holding it for a few seconds. Mine works perfectly, but you should be pressing Power+Volume Down, which is stock for this ROM.

I think I may have found the issue with Chrome...I believe I deleted a ChromeBackgroundSync apk on accident. This may be causing the issue...maybe not, but I'll put it back and test. If it works I'll release an update tonight...if I'm not lost in Double XP Weekend on Black Ops 2
