Can someone please give me some knowledge for questions below? I have been using HD2 NAND for a long time, so I am aware of some stuff, but some stuff is completely new to me. I would really appreciate your help.
1) What are RILs?
2) How do I find which radio version I am running on my sensation?
3) What is RUUs? And how to find out stock one for TMO USA?
4) What is the relation between RILs and Radios?
5) Which is the stock radio for TMO USA?
Everything ur looking for is stickied in the ROM development section.
Go to settings-about-software-more
Baseband version is ur radio...whatever u have if u didn't flash anything is ur stock radio

Even as a newbie I was able to unlock my inspire using [TOOL] HTC Inspire/DHD Hack Kit V12.3 (UPDATED ON 08-11-2011) THANKS, THANKS, THANKS. I found the hack in a developers' forum and I am unable to post there. And, yes, I did read the effen-manual but I still have a few questions-
1- how do I know for sure that my phone is rooted and unlocked.
2- what radio should I install
3- what ROM should I flash
Just getting to this point has been challenge for me but I want to complete the task in the best way possible.
Thanks for any pointers.
1. If superuser is installed and running
2. Theirs all type so it may differ for others. I'm currently on att gingerbread one
3. Try them all. That's the best comment theirs only your opinion.

Hi newbie-2,
I have the same question about the radio. Which radio did you end up flashing?
What steps did you use, and did you flash the RIL as well?
Sorry for all the questions. I read quite a bit in the HTC Inspire 4G Radio Flashing forum post in the Development forum, but I'm afraid it left me a bit confused...

hi i am new to android platform, so i am really confuse about fewthings. hope u guys will be able to help me out.
i am installing a eagleblood 2.3.4 custom rom, and they recommend to install new radio (baseband). so i just want to know if i want to go back to my stock radio how do i do that. and how to back up my current radio
go to the radio thread in the Dev section and find your radio there, there is no way to back your radio up, but all known radios are in the radio thread for download, yours will be there

Hi everyone!
I recently got a Sensation XE on Vodafone AU and as many of you know, there doesn't seem to be a RUU available for this device.. I've searched all over XDA and there's nothing
I want to try my hand at the latest ICS ROMs, but am a tad nervous about doing so seeing that I will have to flash to the latest firmware / radio and I don't have a RUU to bring me back to stock if something goes wrong..
The stock radio used by the phone is 10.58.9035.00P_10.15.9035.02_2.
I was wondering:
a) Would it be possible to do a backup of my radio using fastboot (I believe nandroid / CWM recovery doesn't backup radio); and
b) Will flashing the radio of the same version number on the thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178143) ... essentially bring me back to stock radio? Vodafone AU's Sensation XE supports the 850MHZ WCDMA/3G frequency .. will I lose this by flashing the radio from this thread? Is this thread only for Sensation or Sensation XE?
Sorry for the questions, I am really stuck!
Thanks!

a.) No, I don't think you can backup the radio.
b.) Yeah by flashing that radio you should be back to stock and it won't mess up your frequencies. Looks like the radio is for the Sensation and Sensation XE but do double check.
Before you go about installing ICS just do a nandroid of the stock ROM and keep it in a safe place.

k0zmic, thanks heaps for the reply! I really appreciate it, because I do want to have a crack at ICS, but am a little scared there's no fall back option for me atm lol ..
How do I check whether the radio is compatible with Sensation XE as well? I know that they are essentially the same phone, but apparently there are small differences like underclocking?

Hey dr3wster, I had a look in the following thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559
and the file factory directory (towards the bottom of the list) has a VodafoneAU ruu in there, I have downloaded and kept this safe for myself as I too have a Vodafone AU Sensation XE Handset.
Hope this helps.
hi!
im using ARHD 3.6.13 with the recommended radio.
i moved to a new house and now i get very low signal or no signal.
i thought it my cel company problem, but when i have friends or family come over and they use the same company they got full reception.
any ideas what i can do to fix this issue? change kernel? radio?
any help will be great
thank you!
any help here?
sorry for bumping but i really can use some help here
It is most probably a radio issue. What radio version are you using? And did you check if the corresponding RIL are flashed correctly?
What about wifi reception? Is it causing you trouble too?

wifi working great
im using the recommended radio which is suggested in the arhd topic.
is there something i can do to try and make this better?
The recommended radio is not always suitable for everyone. It depends on many factors like geographic location, network provider... I would suggest that you flash the radio that you were using before arhd and give it a try.

You must determine the radio that went with your old ROM (I assume stock). So look on the stock ROM index sticky in the development forum for your phone. Find out with stock RUU you would have (likely region/carrier related), and flash the radio that is meant for it.

i found the thread you are talking about.
i had a europe ruu , but there are too many files there with europe and radio.
how i know which one to download?
Do you have a branded phone?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using xda premium
i dont think so.
i bought it from a private store but i think it had a vodafone software before i s-off and put arhd on it
Can you post the link where you found the stock roms?

does anyone know how to help me get better signal?
I am looking into the roms available to determine which radio you were on. Can you please tell me which rom u were running before flashin ARHD ?
Also please install the RILInfos_1.1.apk attached below and run it and post ur current radio and RIL version respectively.
hi guys,
im planning to swap my phone to htc sensation 4g. tmobile. im currently using optimus 3d p920.
the question is, are t-mobile 4g sensations are somewhat different to other sensations when it comes to flashing? i meant there are somr carriers who does not support tethering right? or you can flash any rom on tmobile htc sensation?

as far as i know if you S-OFF your device and supercid then you can install whatever rom you like
thanks for the reply.
i saw a thread before, though i cannot find it now, and based on that thread, there is a different way to flash roms to at&t sensation phones.
i am physically located in the philippines and i havent tried international phones ever since, i always use the local ones.

Hi there, I am T-Mobile sensation 4g. I can confirm that yes as long as you are S-off you can flash any Rom to your sensation you like. Just make sure you have the correct firmware for the Rom you are wanting to run. Rule of thumb is ICS roms run on android 3.32 or 3.33. Firmware. Very important. 3.33 is the newest firmware but most ics roms run on both . As long as your soff and have the correct firmware your good to go. I highly recommend you using 4ext recovery also. It's a easy to use recovery that most of us use . Some roms actually are not booting unless 4 ext is installed. It's extremely easy to use and you will love it. It makes flashing a breeze. Remember before you flash to always do a nandroid backup . This is for your protection. If you have an issue you can easily restore your backup. Hope this information has helped you some. Don't worry about T-Mobile. I enjoy any Rom I want whenever I want to flash without any issues. Best wishes !

thanks for that information.
if ever this would be my first htc unit. what are the things that i need to consider to prevent softbrick/hardbrick? or loosing imei? i appreciate using ext4 was already mentioned. i have a friend with galaxy s, he wiped ext4 and it cause him a bootloop and its very dificult to fix. as we tried to use odin and got no luck.

edit:
now i got my sensation,
its already using a custom rom and custom kernel. im checking if there is clockwork recovery app or not, it appears that there is none,
how can i check if it's s-off already, unlocked bootloader, with supercid?
