HTC Inspire and Ice Cream Sandwich???

[UnfocusedHTC]

I'll say this. I was against rooting. Why root if you have a phone that does what it was programmed to so and you bought it knowing that. Then I got the erge to root my phone and play around with it. Never looked back. There is a Rom for everyone. Once a good ICS comes out for the inspire I'll probly load it up.

Lord Clockan's IceColdSandwich ICS rom is pretty stable. He just added Inspire sound fixes so there's nothing extra to flash. I would honestly rather have an AOSP ICS rom instead of ICS Sense. I saw that video of Sense 4.0 and I started feeling sick to my stomach

Do not hold your breath waiting for CM9 for the Inspire. According to the CM website they may not be able to support the Qualcomm QSD8255 Snapdragon which powers the Inspire/Desire HD and a few other phones like the Nexus One and the first EVO. They did not say ICS was out for these phones. We may still get CM9 down the line. But there are a lot of phones they will build CM9 for first. I am running the aospX version 18. Its an Alpha build of AOSP ICS 4.0.3 everything works great except the Video Recorder. Heck I even got an Email from Google saying Congrats on your new Gnex. Did not have the heart to tell them I was running ICS on an Inspire.

@randyw actually the nexus one and EVO 4G use a drastically different processor compared to the desirehd and the inspire. The nexus one uses a 1st gen snapdragon with an adreno 200 while the desirehd uses a 2nd gen snapdragon with adreno 205. Anyway HTC officially said that the desirehd will get ICS along with sense 4.0.

I have searched everywhere, I cannot find the ICS rom for this phone anywhere...

Look for the Ascension and Virtuous Quattro Roms over on XDA. They're both ICS roms and I've tried them both. They are still works in progress with significant short comings and bugs. I ended up going back to WCX Illuminati 2.8 after the sound software subsystem broke on Virtuous Quattro.

I tried this one but had to back it out when the sound software subsystem completely quit. I thought I had a hardware problem until I flashed my old, reliable, WCX Illuminati 2.8.

ICS is out there in various states of completion and works on the Inspire. Is your phone rooted? That's step number one.

We.have a version here in the inspire rom section we just added today.

IF we get an.official it will be several months and it will be for the.desire HD. I personally doubt att will give it to the non rooted users after releasing the note and the upcoming sgs3.

I got your 10 char right here

I saw that earlier and I jumped right on it. Thanx! I've flashed it and am going through setup now. The video is greatly improved. I'd love to have a compatible FM Radio app but Tune-in will do for now. Keep up the good work.

Head over to XDA and check out the Inspire threads. You can find anything you want to know. Also You tube has many videos that can show you what you need to do.

Randy W has it just right. I've only been with Android since December and YouTube is how I figured out what to do. I've tried most of the ICS Roms, both AOSP and Sense based. IMO the best pure AOSP ICS ROM is LorD ClockaN's Ice Cold Sandwich, which is now up to version 7. Just about everything works, including the camera. I don't think any of the Sense based ICS ROMS have working cameras, however, things are progressing rapidly. There are a couple of indispensable tools; Rom Manager and Titanium Backup. I use them so much I bought the paid versions and I'd recommend that you consider it as well. Check out the videos and if you still need some clarity, post back.

Were not gonna get it period YOU AT&T!!

Were not gonna get it period YOU AT&T!!

But who says we have to wait for AT&T? I've been going back and forth with 5 different ports of ICS:

1. Ice-Sense (ICS & Sense 4.0)
2. Existz (AOSP)
3. Primo-S (ICS & Sense 4.0)
4. RD-MIUI (ICS & ???)
5. Ice Cold Sandwich (AOSP)

And two Gingerbread Roms:

• WCX-Illuminati (GB 2.3.5 & Sense 3.5; stock without crapware)
• Cyanogen Mod 7.2 (GB 2.3.7)

My favorites in no particular order are WCX, Cyanogen, & Ice Cold Sandwich, all of which are stable and feature complete enough to be daily drivers. This morning felt like a WCX kind of day.
