i am at a total loss here.
I was on CM7 with the stock AT&T radio and HSUPA was working just fine.
I then tried to flash another radio (The Telus one) and i lost HSUPA.
I checked the build.prop and it is still showing that HSUPA is enabled.
I tried flashing back to the AT&T stock radio and HSUPA is STILL disabled...
Anyone know how to re-enable this?
I am completely puzzled here.
edit: this is fixed. see solution HERE

Try flashing a different rom and see if that will work. I would try stock rooted.
Thanks but there has to be another way.
I font understand why flashing a radio (Telus, i even tried a euro radio), would disabled HSUPA from nowhere and the radio is completely ignoring the build.prop file which has HSUPA enabled.
By searching i saw another user had this problem but no solution was posted.
I had to ruu to stock and rerun the hack kit.

THIS!!!!
I had to do the same. I searched and tried everything. I am afraid the only way is to reflash to stock and start all over again. And don't flash any other radios. I have read so many radio threads looking for the solution and most everybody I see worldwide is getting the best results with the stock AT&T radio.

I guess that's what i'll have to do.
Is there a specific way i need to flash the radio in order no to lose HSUPA?
I simply used fastboot.
I do see other people on this forum who successfully flashed a different radio.
How did they do it?
There is no better radio for the inspire than the stock one. It has no hsupa limitations built in or nonspecific kernel issues, unlike the captivate. Don't flash any other radios, simple solution.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
Is there a way to check which radio we have? What is the identifier of stock radio?
Not sure exactly what happens but something gets screwed up somewhere.
Originally I used the Hackerize kit and flashed the original radio. Instead of flashing a Sense rom, I went straight to CM7. Everything was perfect except I did not have HSUPA no matter what I tried. I tried multiple radios and editing build.prop. Nothing worked.
This second time, I used Hackerize again. This time I took the extra steps to flash one of attn1s cooked roms. I booted that and made sure I had HSUPA before moving forward. Then I installed CM7 again and now I have HSUPA. My uploads are faster than my downloads in my area.
OK here is the deal:
1) I RUU back to stock
2) Ran the hack kit again except for the last step i never flashed back to the at&t radio as this is what is causing the problem.
3) I then tested by flashing like 4 different radios (NONE FROM AT&T) and never lost HSUPA again.i flashed 3 euro radio and 1 from Telus both on euro stock firmware and CM7.
There is something with the at&t radio that once you flash it - something gets messed up when you flash another radio.

I've flashed the stock radio and the M2 radio back and forth and back. I've never had problems with HSUPA. I just did a speedtest to make sure because I'm back on stock radio and it is 1542down/1347up.
The stock radio sounds HORRIBLE... there isnt a better way to increase call quality???? Everything sounds so raspy.

Before you flashed back to stock, did you flash the radio back to the stck ATT radio or when I flash back to the stock ruu, it changes the radio back to the ATT radio?

Thanks man! This solves my problem, the only thing is all I did was open the hacker tools and pull out the down graded radio.img and flash it then let it reboot fully then just flash whatever radio to want and you get hsupa again on the modem if your choice. Hope this helps someone.

When you guys get HSUPA back, how do you know? Are you checking Menu>Settings>About Phone>Network>Mobile network type?
I've tried everything but this to get HSUPA and I can never get HSUPA to show as the network type. I'm nervous about flashing a new radio because it sounds like I need Eng S-Off to flash a radio and it seems there is a greater risk of bricking my phone if I screw it up than just with the radio s-off.

How I know if I have it or not is when I run a speed test, if my average upload speeds in 3G or "H" are less than 1 mb/s, I do this by using the speedtest.net app.

No you wont have to update the rom, gapps, kernel or any other mods you may have. Updating your radio will change your baseband. I was on the same radio you were until I changed my radio to the Verizon desire radio because it gives me better service for sure. I didnt do mine thru clockwork so i dont know how that works I just got the update zip and flashed it in recovery. Be careful using diff methods or zips to flash radios one bad one and u got a brick.

I flashed baseband 2.42.01.04.27 and still not getting much improved reception in a fringe area (my home). Common to get around -98 to -100 db.
Any suggestions for other radios that might work better on the weak end?

I loaded the latest radio and the numerical signal is about the same but the phone displays two bars once in awhile which never showed before from the same fringe location. Will need more time talking on the phone before deciding if there is any marked audible quality improvement.
The -xx dmb readout and the graphic bar display do not seem to be in synch anyway. It can show -95 dbm and then only one bar while other times I have seen it at -98dbm and showing two bars, so really not sure which is more reliable.
If anyone is having slow data speeds for the AOSP builds, CM7, or the like, I flashed the recommended radio and BAM my speeds are back to 4.5 down and 1.5 up. This might be common knowledge and if so just delete the thread, but I was having consistently good data speeds on every sense rom even without the recommended radio, and for some reason when I flashed adamholden's ROM with the stock radio was getting as low as .2 down and .8 up, and after a helpful suggestion to flash the radio through HBOOT (just putting the PD98IMG file on my sd and booting into the bootloader and letting it do its thing) which was way easier in my opinion than all the eng s-off stuff, not to mention safer, my speeds are back up to the normal 4.5 down and 1.5 up. Hope this helps, because I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out all this new radio stuff (came from the captivate).

I see in your sig you've got TPGB's AOSP ROM, so you must be referring to radio version 26.06.06.30. This is the new stock radio that HTC pushed out a couple of weeks ago to the stock Inspires. This has been a great radio for me as well.

Hi all,
A week ago I bought a brand new Desire S and installed latest CM 7.1 stable following the guide on cyanogemod Desire S Wiki using revolutionary 0.4pre4. Everything was smooth and nice, I flashed ROM and GAPPS and my phone is working absolutely perfectly... but there is one little problem...
I am using Desire to fetch my mails from 2 mailservers using IMAP every 30 mins. But when the phone is switching between network modes i.e. HSDPA -> EDGE or EDGE -> GSM or any other way, I am disconnected from operator network for about 10 seconds until the network mode changes and everything is fine after that, until there is another network mode switch.
This happens for me about 10 times a day, so my phone sometimes appears that It is turned off for people who want to call me. Immediately after connecting to network I get a missed call SMS from my operator.
Interesting thing is, that when I disable email fetching, disable background data transfer and disable network data, the phone works fine without "blackouts".
Can someone help me with this problem? Maybe a radio issue?
Some more info:
ROM: Cyanogenmod 7.1.0 Desire S
Recovery: Revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4
HBOOT: 6.98.1002
Kernel: 2.6.35.14-cyanogenmod+ [email protected] #1
Radio: 20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M
There is a newer radio-file online.
Maybe it's solving your problem.
I'm using MIUI and never had such problems, but i'm interested in flashing CM, so please report if the problem is gone by flashing newer radio!
Which radio version are you using?
Today I am testing 2G only switch so I am on EDGE data only.
Flashing radios is safe......, but a bad radio flash will instantly brick your phone.
You are using 1.47.401.4 radio, try updating to the 2.10.401.5 one.
Thanks for reply.
Shoud I flash something else with the radio?
I have 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 downloaded from cmw.22aaf3.com

Strangely I had the same issues as you on Endymion.

Then I went to CM7. It was fine for a while, but now I'm losing signal with no 3G bars and its not switching automatically to 2G like it should when It has no 3G signal!

i already had the problem for several times, and i also pulled out the battery (you shouldn't do that)!
only had to boot into bootloader, start recovery, wipe all partitions, flash rom and was having fun again with my device
this thread could help you, if really stuck on HTC logo
For your real problem on loosing the signal, did you ever tried out using actual stock rom, or another custom one like MIUI?
i used MIUI from 2010-08 till yesterday, now trying out CM7.1 for some days
I have the same or a very similar problem. I have the stock rom.
I already had 3 different desire s motherboard's and 2 different display's.
The first Desire S i had, with android 2.3.3, had a excellent signal. Due some problems i had, the phone bricked and had to go to HTC to repair.
HTC replaced the motherboard and update the version of the android to 2.3.5 and ever since the signal caption, the signal switch was working very bad.
The phone went to a second repair because of this, new phone, and again with android 2.3.5. The problems persisted.
I also tested with different SIM cards, from different mobile operators.
So, my conclusion is either android 2.3.5 or this new versions of Desire S have problems with signal caption and signal switch.
So as you, i need some help with this issue!

Hi All,
I have a similar problem with the latest CM7.1 nightly builds (Reaper, jorgen2009). I never saw this with older CM7.1 versions, e.g. Nexx version, ICS, MIUI oder Endymion.
I have WLAN on and leave my house. Phone switches to 2G/3G..., so far so good. When I return home, The WLan sign in the status bar appears again, everything seems to be fine, but I have no connection. I get no data via WLan until I swicth WLan off and on again.
Radio is the latest from 2.10.401.5.
Best Regards
Wrapp
Had similar problems, upgrading to the latest radio helped. I got stuck on the HTC screen and I went through flashing RUU's and unlocking bootloaders back and forth... when the only thing that needs to be done is to wipe the cache.
Learned a lot about bootloaders though. But my warranty got void because i did the htcdev unlock... (Sorry for OT)
tmous
leedroid 2.1 .16---08 radio
1. anyone using the twrp recovery on leedroid as opposed to cwm and do you like it--read you don't have to boot into recovery to flash new radio zip as it bypasses htc restrictions. And, no need to fastboot separate boot.img when flashing roms like leedroid.
2. also, being on the above rom and radio, i want to flash the newer eu radio .10 either thru cwm (boot into recovery) or twrp straight from recovery--anyone find the .10 better on tmous/leedroid--any issues to be aware of flashing other than check md5, although i didn't see a md5 listed
3. take it i can't extract radio.img and fastboot like on N1----?
Thanks
Ken
I did the same thing you are thinking about doing last week.
I'm on Tmobile USA. On LeeDroid Rom. I was curious and flashed the EU Radio. Now for me I began running into trouble such as the MMS not working properly. But the biggest drawback for ne was that I would have to try to call someone two or three times for the phone to connect. And a lot of the times once someone picked up I could not hear them.
This was my personal experience with the EU radio so I decided to flash the TMO-USA radio again and all was good.
I don't want to discourage you though because there were also some people who were saying that they flashed the EU radio without any problems and that it worked fine for them.
All in all if it doesn't work out for you then you could always just flash the other one.

appreciate your reply ydizzle
i will hold off for now pending other posts, don't know if how you flashed it matters like wiping cache first etc. and as mentioned don't think you can extract and fastboot it without s-off
this phone has been perfect and no issues unlocking/rooting/flashing roms--haven't done a restore yet. this is different from my N1 where i think after two years of rom flashing and running ics i maxed it out, so to speak. i don't want to go back to that, so i will leave radio as is for now. bought this phone planning on not doing a lot of flashing. don't know if i can continue to do that--it is too tempting sometimes--
Same happened to me with the EU radio it was bad

No problems with the new radio. Calls and MMS work flawless. Data speed seems to have improved slightly.

ydizzle did you flash the flashable one from the new tmous thread thru cwmr or did you manually extract the radio.img and fastboot into recovery, adb bootloader, and fastboot the radio.img
people seem to have no issue with the flashable zip
i usually prefer fastboot on radios
ken
I flashed the radio through recovery. Didn't wipe anything either.

I will give it a go
You didn't have to copy zip to sdcard, fastboot boot recovery.img first from command window, then flash zip--
I think I might have found an issue. Whenever I am on a phone call my data switches off.
In other words, I can't browse the web while I'm talking to someone.
Before the updated radio this wasn't an issue.
If anyone else has just flashed the new radio, can you reply and lmk if your having this same issue?
i think i heard of this with other tmous radios
i know on eu leedroid one all is perfect
Update: Flashed the Energy Rom and now I have data again during calls. I am a happy camper.
Seems like that Rom has no issues for tmobile USA.

been thinking about that rom, but this one is perfect for me atm--stock radio though. although, i flashed diff radios on n1 and never noticed a difference
may wait for next Energy update as BT is still in doubt for some
just flashed the new tmous radio on latest LeeDroid
no signal strength improvement over pre flashing--still 97 to 101
that low signal is common for my location at home as house sits right under a red, dead zone circle for tmobile--sucks
no big deal as i have wifi at home
will have to test for awhile. but, if no negative effects no reason to go back to old radio
Last Friday and Saturday I began having some serious issues with my phone. The SIM Card would randomly disconnect and reconnect and my phone would randomly restart. Starting yesterday, this issue no longer occurs, but I am unable to get any data on my phone. WiFi works perfectly, but 2g, 3g, and 4g never connect. The 3g icon will appear for a brief moment and then disappear again.
I'm currectly running the most recent stable release of Cyanogenmod 9, if that matters. I also think this could be a hardware issue, so if I have to send my phone in should I try to go back to stock firmware?
Thank you in advance!
Have you tried a different radio and ril combo? I lost data once and I looked in the generic ICS radio and ril files. I upgraded to newest radio and ril and I was up and running again and never had a problem with it since. You flash the ril like a Rom and the radio like a pg58img file. Best place to start would be just the generic ICS radio and ril files. There is about 7 I believe give or take. You can try it out and see if that helps you out . It fixed my problem completely and I had NO data at all. Best wishes, it won't hurt to try. Test out a few and see what works best for your area. Hope this helps!

Is there any sort of risk in doing this? I haven't tried flashing these before and thought there was some potential harm.

Hi,
Are you s-off?
If not, you cannot flash any firmware or radio.
And yes, flashing a bad radio can brick your phone.
If you do flash one, make sure to check the md5 checksum first.
