id10terrordfw, did you just flash the nightly over the stock rom? sorry about all the noob questions but there are soo many roms, kernals and radio floating around, i just want to make sure whats the best combination for this awesome phone...thanks in advanced...

Yes I did. I have it set to 1401MHz overclock right now, working great.

EDIT: to clarify my steps, I used the ruu to factory, popped in my gold card, and did all steps from the hack kit again, then when done flashed nightly 8.

Stock radio per the hack kit. So long as you followed the instructions in the hack kit you already have it.

HTC Inspire Clockwork Recovery * CM7(kang) * Eng S-Off

I flashed the recommended radio for CoreDroid Rom and now when I try to flash the stock radio it says I don't have Eng S-off. I never had Eng S-off and I still flashed a radio. Could I just skip to step 5 of the hack-kit and do it that way or do I need to start over?

Edit: Followed step 5 of the hack kit and that did the trick.

Nevermind, stuck in bootloop. Fastboot just keeps asking to flash radio. Flashes, then bootloop.

Everything seems to work except for the wireless. I've seen this before on my secondary DesireHD device, seems like I have to go down to a lower radio than what comes with the inspire?

however, to add, I'd rather run CM7 because its light weight, its core Android and I don't have to deal with crazy and sometimes bloat that is in sense.. but yea sense does have some neat features.. but can't they do it with out running a gazillion services?

Just to clarify, do you mean wifi or wireless GSM?

Just flashed this and everything is working great but my download speeds are acting like there capped..upload is fine. My normal dl is around 3MB but I'm not getting more then 200kbps

I'm getting "problem loading widget" after a reboot. Widgets are confirmed to be installed on phone, not SD. Anyone else having this problem.

What is the best radio for this and where do you get it? Thanks

WiFi.. it turns on then turns off a few seconds later... I've seen it before with in compatible radios... just wanted to confirm before I test that theory out..

Is there a way to change the music and video apps. They don't seem to play/recognize all the songs and videos that the stock apps do?

Also, the email app doesn't have the move to folder feature for Microsoft Exchange.

I've seen the wifi issue on a fresh install just reboot and it should work fine.

are you supposed to flash the gabbs before first boot up?

Why is this file only 80 megs when the other rom's are 240?

AOSP base is much smaller than sense roms.

I can flash this and if I don't like it flash back to a sense Rom, right?

Yes, you would just want to flash CWM down to version 2.5.1.3 before changing ROM's. Format Data, System, and Cache as well before install. 2.3 (and CWM 3.0.0.6) are using a different default filesystem. It should work to skip those steps, but I strongly recommend to do it.

So, go up to 3.0.0.6, then flash CM7. To go back to Revolution, flash CWM back to 2.5.1.3, then flash Revo?

You got it!

I took a nandroid of each and using the CWM flashing can go back and forth with no trouble at all.

What's your opinion on 2.3 compared to 2.2 with Sense?

I won't go back, frankly. I'm loving AOSP and wish I could have had my Captivate run this butter smooth. Those guys over at CM sure know their stuff. as well as our ROM cookers and devs here.
