Do I need to flash a new radio? - HTC Sensation

What are the benefits of flashing a new radio? Some rom's recommend it some don't? Also is there a way to tell which ones are for the sensation and ones for the T-Mobile sensation? Thanks

[Q] Backing up stock Rom (TMOBILE UK)

Right, got my replacement Sensation with Tmobile UK branded rom on.
Having found that there are no stock Tmobile roms about, I would rather back everything up before I root this time.
How do I do this?
Once done, I'm happy to share with everyone else so no one else has to go through the same prob in the future.
If there is a kind dev out there who can help me package everything up properly all the better!!
Thanks
S-OFF and then backup using CWM

Thanks for the interest but I want to create a virgin backup that can be used to get back to full stock, not to S-Off

Yes, that is why I want to create one as that thread has no Tmobile UK Roms
So is this not possible? I'm sure there used to be ways of dumping off images of yr phone. May have been back on the Kaiser though.
Is there a reason why we have have so manly stock ruus but no Tmobile UK?

Anyone? Surely a Tmobile UK stock ROM would be useful to the community?

Sensation xe queries

Right now, I'm considering upgrading to a sensation xe. I've seen some roms mentioning that they support the xe, but I'm not sure about the other roms. Will they support the xe? Also, do you recommend this phone?

Oh, and I heard that installing cm7 will wipe beats audio. Is there a way to back beats up and reinstall it after installing cm7?

Well, i've got an XE and have been using v 08 of this ROM... No problems (v 09 has some issues that will be resolved soon)
You have to S-Off and root etc. by following instructions here If you're not sure what you're doing then do not do it (there's my disclaimer!) Lol.
PS
I haven't lost the Beats by Dre either.
I see...thanks a lot. But since that is a sense ROM, it doesn't resolve my worries about losing beats as I mainly use AOSP roms on my devices.

Oh, and I also heard that there is some sort of bootloader unlock solution from HTC for the sensation and evo 3d. Will the one for the sensation work for the xe? Thx so much!

Does i need wait for ota update

So I'm new on sensation, before was using desire s so. Do j need to wait for update from htc or here is some stabile ice????

I am using blitz 7 with aosp mod and it seems super stable with decent battery life. However, it's really up to you to determine what is best for you.
Using XDA premium, you should be too!
You may as well wait, then decide if it's what you want.

As far as i know, some roms doesn't require to have super cid (tmobile sensation roms..). But if you have super cid on your phone, you can flash any roms you want.
I have europe sensation, without carrier branding.

You'll get updates OTA, or look at htcelevate.com if there are any RC updates to stream to your phone using FOTA.

Depends on you, really. I'm waiting for the official ICS update from HTC, and if I'm not happy with it I'll probably flash AOSP or the custom Sense 4 ROM (if HTC doesn't include Sense 4 in the update)
I did flash ics without sense

Bad cellphone signal

Is anyone having problems with the cellphone reception using ICS InsertCoin
5.1.1? I'm using T-mobile US and I'm noticing that, since roms were updated with the latest release base my signal is constantly dropping very often... I even tried using the image from ARHD thread, but nothing seems to work, any thoughts on this?

Does your radio and ril match?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G with Beats Audio using xda premium
Yes they both match. I'm using the recommended radio and as far as the ril I know It's already included in the Rom... Please correct me if I'm mistaken

Correct-RIL included with rom.
Check rom thread for supported firmware versions, perhaps you can downgrade slightly giving you a different radio.
You can also flash radio seperately, either by fastboot if you use Mike's or Kor-ah's packages, or by pg58.img in recovery if not.
Unfortunately radio performance is specific to device/rom/carrier/RIL so experimentation is standard!

Yeah I did flash the latest firmware package by mike1986
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA
I'll try experiment with different radios and will try a different Rom to see if it changes... Thanks a lot for your help!

Changing phone radio

How do you find a choose the correct one.I'm needing a better signal,faster download Ind speeds,etc.
Sent from my HTC Sensation using XDA
Radio
The radio you need depends on your service provider and ROM, some dev's suggest the radio you should use to attain the best speeds, also you can check the stock radio release with your phone when it was stock, and look for ROM's with the same radio as well as trying to find if the radio will be flashable on your ROM
Thanks for that information.
