As some of you have come from the captivate know what I did there with Rom Q&A threads. I am doing the same here. In an effort to clean up the site. All Rom related question shall from now on be posted in the proper Q&A or will be deleted on sight.
So was it strange that I was never told this thread even existed and had no idea until just now? For anyone still having problems, a few troubleshooting techniques:
-When installing, are you sure you cleared cache and dalvik? If coming from a major release to a major release, did you do a full wipe instead?
-Are you using the proper radio, as posted in the first post of the thread?
-Are you using any task managers or antivirus apps?
i just flashed 1.2.11 to my phone which i decided to finally root after about 4 months, and i love it. I installed barnacle due to the stock hotspot debacle and when i go to use it it tells me that NAT is not connected. now here at work, where i am testing it, i dont have great connection but i can get 3g to work here. what does it mean when NAT does not connect?
Sorry, no answer here on the hotspot issue. Have you PMd Mister ClearD? He is very responsive and has been working hard on this whole hotspot issue... he'd likely be very interested in your problem.
I too am running 1.2.11, and am delighted with it. However, I am wondering if there is any way to get more volume out of the speaker for ringtones and alarms. I have them maxed out on the phone's adjustments, but it's still awfully quiet.
Michael look for an app called volume+ made by meltus I believe in the market. It works with gingerbread but not froyo. There is a few other fixes for the volume limit but I can't link them currently because I am on my phone. Do a search for it and it should come up. If someone doesn't post it up.

Thanks, got it and it does help!

Hello,
Last night I flashed the latest ClearDroid ROM 1.1.51, but when I check under the software information menu, it says the Android version is 2.2.1
The flash seems to work because it says it's running Cleardroid.
Shouldn't it be running the Gingerbread (2.3) update or am I mistaken?
Also, the data connection seems to screw up, and only works when it wants. Sometimes ROM Manager will disappear from the apps menu.
I did a full wipe before flashing and it still won't work.
I also just flashed CoreDroid and it did update to 2.3 , but I want my stock HTC theme back!
Thanks!

The version 1.1.51 is still on froyo build but has the new ril for gingerbread. On the first page of the Dev post he has a link to the matching radio. Give it a flash and see if it helps with your data connection. If you want gingerbread his version 1.2.xx is the gingerbread Rom (still in beta), it has the fix for messaging but he is still working on tethering. It's still the stock look to the dot
On the app side I don't know what could be going on there, sorry I couldn't help on that point, (since I'm not having that particular error)

im personally running 1.2.12 RC2 which is his latest Beta, along with the suggested radio. i dont have any problems with network and it looks and behaves great while keeping that stock look. honestly i love this ROM. if you have any major questions just send ClearD a PM and he will get back to you. probably my favorite dev because he is so thorough and responsive to his followers.

to post my own answer ClearD told me that 1.2.12 has a working tether program. he is still working on making the stock tether work but for now the one he has included in the rom works great so no need for barnacle
Thanks Pytheous and Hiyabuz! I'll give the latest beta a shot because last night I flashed the rooted AT&T stock rom and my battery life improved but I'm still having data problems. Now I'm not sure if it's my cell company or the ROM that's causing the problems.
I'm afraid of flashing the radio and losing my signal completely!

This ROM, from what i can tell, is basically a stock ROM with all of the bloatware crap taken out, and a few cool gadgets added here and there. I love the ROM and the way it feels, but what i love the most is the responsiveness of the Dev for the ROM. If i have an issue i just send him a PM and he either sends me an answer or gets to work on it right away.
as for the radio i flashed the reccomended one on his original dev post and i actually get better signal in most places.
I also have another question of my own. i wanted to test out the GPS last night and it seemed a little more sluggish than stock. i could be immagining things but i was wondering if anyone else was having this problem also.

ok thanks buz. i just wanted to check
i only used it for about 3 min so it wasnt a very good judge of use
For example yesterday I retried mine first reconnect of gps after upping to new radio took 5 mins without vase and was sluggish. With case it took almost 10, today with case on first lock took 14secs with an 8 sat lock inside and using my case. its been awesome since he put in the gps fix. B4 it could take up to 30 mins for first lock without my case and it was only like 4 sats.

Noob here, I flashed the ClearDroid 1.2.12 rom a couple of days ago and love it. The only thing i want to change is the secure box in the messages menu. I would like to hide it or remove it, is it possible? Any help is appreciated, I did search I swear I did.
Will the Tiny audio fix work with this rom?
Issues with using latest gingerbread build.
Hello CleardDroid team;
I am a big fan your ROM, it works great on my phone. I have some serious issues using this ROM;
1) I am unable to compose message, when i try to compose message it force closes. I have tried alot to fix the issue but unable to resolve it. I have cleared its data, restarted it, fix the permissions using ROM manager, but failed to fix the issue.
2) Hotspot is not working, but I guess you are working on it.

yes that is the RUU to flash.
but before you do that u need to be sure you have bootloader ENG HBOOT-0.98.2000

Hi meinfreund,
What are the problems you are having with your navigation? I've been on VoidU and now MIUI and got my navigation running pretty well. Actually MIUI seems to be incredible with it's assisted GPS implemented settings.

I also had gps problems on certain 2.3.5 roms. Couldn't get the gps icon to even appear in the notification bar. No error messages when turning gps on though. Sound like your problems?
No need to go back to stock. Try Coredroid or CM7. I can confirm both work with gps. Also perhaps try LeeDrOid. Very close to stock look and feel but with some nice tweaks. Gps also working there too.

the icon appears and i got gps far outside the city, but when i grabbed it the signal was lost. Had to put it in front of the car to get the signal, very sensitive. I resetted gps data many times but that didn't change anything.
Before i started flashing ROMs, it worked pretty fine, in the cities too.
Actually I think that all the ROMs that I tried are not faster or better than the Stock I had before. So i'm a bit confused about what doing next?!
LeedrOid and Coredroid are from August. Aren't they a bit outdated?
Does an update of the Base and Kernel might has positive effects to the gps?
Because ther is an update for Desire S Official Sense 3.0 - [GRJ90] [2.3.5] OTA 2.10.401.4

I tried MIUI too, same problem here

If you want navigation working why dont you use another stable ROMs like Virtuous Unity, VoidU1.1a etc. etc..
Reverting back to stock is something unusual after rooting. There are lot of candidates , Just pick one and hit the base..Keep Hitting

Read that Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0 will be released soon, can anyone say how long it usually takes to get a release of a new version such as ICS 4?
Would like to test that as well
Hey,
I now flashed the Cyanogenmod 7.1 and have big trouble with that.
GPS does not work as well as with the other ROMS (GPS fix can't even "fix")
But there are some more difficulties.. i cant call or get called by someone, the Homebutton does not work (after flash, it worked.. but after shutdown it doesn't anymore)
Apart from these problems, this ROM is very fast and nice looking!
Does one of you have an idea how long it takes until a shipped ROM of ICS is available when its released?
Hi I have also cm7.1 since stable release and not having your problems. Just csipsimple has some isues. Did you do wipe cache and data? Did you restore via titanium? I restored BT pairings and had to begin since clean system, cause BT didn't work correctly. I would give a try to flash radio.

in that case you should consider about the bad weather that can affect GPS receiver.
so you can try later whenever the weather becomes better?
Is there is a way to get a full miui theme on stock rom?

I don't think you'll be happy with an imitation launcher if you really want the MIUI look. I'd say stick with real MIUI, it gets better and better each week.

Hi! I updated my DS to 4.0 via RUU about a 8 days ago. Every thing is going fine except some minor issues. I would like someone to have a look at these and provide any possible solution. :good:
1) My DS is starting to lag. It's like that its been overburden with the processes.
2) The weather wigdet is not locating my location correctly. I tried WiFi, GPRS and GPS, but no use. Its says unable to get the location. Another app was not able to get my location.
3) The browser has also got slower. The internet browsing in the browser and Playstore has slowed down.
Any help would be appreciated.

As for the lag and speed I guess HTC stock ROM will never be that fast as custom one. For other issues have u tried to factory reset your phone? I remember this helped me time ago then i updated over OTA to GB and powerbutton didn't work.
There was a very good reason why HTC didn't release v4 as an OTA update - it's buggy and cr4p.
Go and do some reading about custom ROMs if you want something more stable.
If you want the latest Android version and speed, your only option is a custom ROM.
The only positives of the HTC decision to work on this RUU (or ICS update in general is more correct) was the latest firmware (which actually has no confirmed improvements) and the kernel source that actually has the great value, clearly not appreciated by our CM devs (this is not an insult, more a regret)

Read the threads and try some out yourself.
First...huge thanks to you all... I've been lurking, searching, reading, and learning from everyone here for weeks, before pulling the trigger and successfully rooting my 3.02.502.52 build Inspire 4G...
First and only ROM I've flashed so far is TrickDroid 4.0.0....it works great! But I've experienced the phone tinniness mentioned by other users, and wanted EQS...so I wiped caches and flashed latest Tweaks pkg 4.0.4, incl Inspire patch. This made the ROM noticeably faster and smoother...but I lost the ability to use phone and SMS altogether... When attempting either I get "Unfortunately Phone Has Stopped"...or "Unfortunately Messages Has Stopped"...unable to send or receive either...
I've read others with similar issues with the phone, but not exactly...
I decided to full wipe and reflash the ROM and Tweaks pkg, including Inspire patch, and restore HTC phone this time... That is sweet...it opens the dialer much smoother...can dial and connect, but no sound...
I've read others having the prob with no sound, but fixed it with the patch... My issue doesn't happen until after I flash tweaks...should I not use the patch??
I apologize for the question...and for posting here...I'm a noob, and I hate myself...
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using xda app-developers app
Also...if I want to try out different combinations, or change user options in the tweaks pkg, do I need to full wipe/reflash ROM/reflash Tweaks?? Or can I simply clear caches and reflash Tweaks w/o reflashing the ROM...
*facepalm*
:$
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using xda app-developers app
Well...if anyone ever reads this having the same issue, I resolved it by reflashing tweaks with no options other than EQS and restore HTC dialer...
But I wised up and flashed Viper 1.2.3 a couple days ago, and that is just so much better....still by Torxx, and way more stable...way better tweaks, and an awesome interface for installing and changing them!!
Just use that one....lol...
