Sorry for this admins if this is in the wrong spot, but i have no forum rights other than here.
I have extensively researched your forum, plus Cyanmod and have done everything i can think of to get my GPS to work on my HTC INSPIRE, but to no avail. Dammm thing still says SEARCHING for GPS.
Not sure if i have to leave it for a while i did it for like 10 minutes yesterday and nothing...... I have read that 7.0.2 fixes this but i guess its not true since i still have the problem.
Can someone please help me with this?
Maybe to avoid duplication of a thread on this same topic, you can just PM me here
I am well familiar with forums etiquette (being a moderator myself) and i know how annoying it is to have duplicate threads created for no reason.
Again my apologies if this is the case
Thanks.
Javier.
Reflashing the radio might get GPS back.

If you are on a stock rom, use the att one
If you are on a gingerbread rom, use on that says gb
On the bootloader screen it says this:
ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-0.85.0019
MICROP-0438
RADIO-26.06.04.06_M
eMMC-boot
Have no clue what the hell that means....
Based on this....do i have to flash the ATT one?

Since you have CM7 which I believe is a gingerbread ROM, its usually suggested to flash a gingerbread radio. From what you mentioned, you have a stock at&t radio with a gingerbread ROM.
ok, when i rooted my phone, i used this (i can't post the link, but you if google exactly what i am about to put below, its the first choice):

Then, for the radio flashing, i found this which i want to ask if it will work....looks simplified.
How To Flash Radio On HTC Inspire 4G or HTC Desire HD
Again, its the first choice when you google that.
Let me know guys if i am heading in the right direction. I am not sure what Radio i actually have....don't want to screw it up since messing with the radio can brick i think.
Thanks

If you go into settings>about phone>software information.. and look under Baseband version, thats what shows you what radio you have.
You mentioned you have RADIO-26.06.04.06_M which is a stock at&t radio.
Download the gingerbread radio and flash it using those instructions.
It should bring back GPS.
Ok, i have the file in both .zip and in .img format....
I am having issues flashing this to my phone....
I tried doing it via bootloader and doing
adb fastboot flash radio.img
it says something * not recognized *
its like it won't read it or something....
I tried doing recovery and using the "ZIP" file thinking i can just trick it but it said updating failed
Any easier way of getting this in my phone?
Isn't there a way of just going to the FILE i have and replacing with this one?
Just a thought.

Make sure you rename the file PD98IMG.zip
Make sure you place the PD98IMG.zip file in the root of your external SD card
Make sure there are no other PD98IMG.zip files in the root of your SD card
ok, again THANKS SO MUCH for all your help man....
I figured out how to flash the radio (didn't know i had to go into Hboot and let it do it by itself )
Got now a new version than previous after checking....
so i am now checking the GPS on it....
Do you have a good app you can suggest that will test it for me better...showing me if it is actually looking for the satelites, ect... ?
how long should it take for the GPS to catch at first?

Try to go outdoors. See if you get better GPS lock.
Also, if you have a case, remove it and try it (outdoors) to see if you get better GPS reception.
Couldn't find this anywhere so I thought I would ask....
I've had the White Nexus S w/ AT&T 3G Bands for a week or so now and it's been great. Running CM7 with custom kernel and all is good. For what ever reason it started giving me the "No SIM" error. I have no idea why this just happened all of the sudden like this. Anyways, AT&T was kind enough to give me a new SIM and this issue just will not go away.
I'm out of ideas on this...
Any suggestions?

Bootloader shows the Radio version to be: I9020UCKB2
It even shows the carrier info to be ATT
What should the APN settings be for AT&T?
Borrowed the APN settings off of a Bravo here inside the store and and when I save the settings it doesn't list the APN like it should. I am saving the settings but it doesn't show after its saved.

Yeah I have. I received a brand new one from AT&T when this first started.
I've given up on fixing this device. I contacted Negri Electronics and asked for an RMA. This unit has to be a lemon. This will make the first time I've ever had to send a phone back. Hopefully the replacement will be a better unit.
I've seen devs mention to flash a radio from Hboot and Fast boot before. Are these terms synonymous? Fast boot is accessed from Hboot correct? I've flashed a radio a few times, but never understood the terminology. A PD98IMG is always flashed the same way from what I understand.
More or less correct. HBoot flashing is done with the PD98IMG.zip on the SDcard. PD98IMG.zip can contain any number of images to be flashed. Fastboot flashing is done using the fastboot.exe and can flash a single image.

I've never quite understood what the advantage is to fastboot flashing. Then again, I've never truly understood fastboot in general.
Something I definitely need to do more reading on.
I've tried several times, and several methods to flash my radio to the 12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2 radio img. And nothing seems to be working. My best guess is its user error. I'm a noob and trying to learn how to flash my radio. I currently have the 12.39.30.19P-26.06.04_M with the TPGB-Ninja_0618 ROM and [email protected] #28 kernel.
I've done the method where i go into adb to access bootloader, then i flash the radio.img then reboot the phone and that doesnt work. I've tried running the radio.img though CWM and that didn't work.
If I power off my phone and then hold power and -vol down to get into the bootloader it automatically will go into hboot and start to run through the PD98IMG.zip. I'm wondering.
Do I need that .zip folder on my sdcard forever or can I get rid of it?
Also, can I just switch out radio.img in the PD98IMG.zip with the new radio.img?
Can I do the above question without having all the other .img 's in the .zip folder?
I've done some research, but haven't found my answers, or was able to fix my problem.
So hopefully someone can help me.
Please be gentle with me, I'm new to this type of thing, but a fast learner.
Thanks in advance

Assuming the PD98IMG.zip containing the radio flashes properly, you can remove it afterwards.
Have you checked out the inspire only radio thread in the dev section, yet?
There's already a ready-to-flash PD98IMG.zip for the radio you want to flash on that thread.
Download it from that thread, verify the MD5 checksum, plop it in the root directory of your SD card, reboot into hboot/bootloader, once it finds the PD98IMG.zip, confirm the update, and away you go.
Ok I'll try that as soon as I get to my computer. Thanks for the reply and I'll let you know how it goes.

Just don't forget to check that MD5. I have had incomplete (meaning...BAD) radio downloads on a solid WiFi connection, so it DOES happen from time to time.

Couple of things. 1) Be sure to give the radio long enough to "warm up"...I'ave had it take several hours after flashing before I started getting decent speeds from a radio I know works. 2) It is usually recommended to keep a copy of your radio flash on your SD card in case you need it (GPS fail, etc., ) so you can reflash if you are away from a PC, but not keep it in the root of your SD. It's very possible to end up in a continuous boot loop until you somehow either get the file off your root (SD card reader) or fool the phone into thinking it isn't there by pulling the SD card when you pull the battery to recover (I've only heard the last trick works)...

You've also made sure you have the appropriate RIL for the new radio you flashed, correct? That radio thread also has the RILs + info about them, as well.
Also try rebooting more than once after flashing a radio/ril, just for good measure.
When I first flashed the 04_11_M2 radio, I had only rebooted once, as a result of the flashing process. Once my phone was done loading up, I received my first call with it, the caller couldn't hear me, but I could hear them. Caller tried calling back. Same thing. I decided to give it another flash and reboot. I called that person back, and it was working, never experienced that since.
Coincidence? Who knows? But radios are weird, quirky things that seem to need a little "voodoo" type flashing/rebooting to kick them in, I suspect.
Well I think I found out why I'm getting these speeds. My radio has a "P" and not a "U" like in meiguoguizi's sig. I have the same radio as that (number wise) but he has a "U" and not a "P".
The radios that I can flash have an "x" in that place so won't that just mean it will switch to whatever letter my data is running on?
I think I found out why I am having this problem.
I can flash the radio.
I can flash the RIL.
But I have a "P" where the "U" is supposed to be to represent the HSUPA speeds.
If thats the the reason then I don't know.

I think that U/P thing is determined by one of the settings in the build.prop file. I know it's been discussed before, I just don't recall the details. If you visit the "editing the build.prop file" thread in the dev section, or possibly amongst the comments in the inspire radio thread, I think you might find the specifics in one of those places.
Or browse through henrybravo's posts, I think I remember him explaining it to someone.
Bottom line is that you have the same radio, it's just a setting that's determining the connection type and as a result, that letter changes, depending on that setting.

First, try another re-flash of the radio.
I did a full wipe and restore and got all the sounds back. Reloaded the RIL and everything works fine.

Yes the x is a placeholder (remember your algebra).
Open he's right. You have to flash the Riley that goes with the radio and then reboot twice. Make sure you are using the best radio for your Rome.

Rileys and Romes....I can dig it
Alright, so I've had an htc sensation running on leedroid 3.10 for quite some time now. Recently it started to restart randomly, so I decided to upgrade my rom. So then I attempted to install insertcoin ICS, but I needed a new radio. So I chose one figuring it would work and now my device doesn't connect to internet or even my data. Whenever I try to install a different radio now to attampt fixing it, it says I have the wrong CID! I NEED my phone to work soon because i have a lot of important things to do that involve it!! Thanks for all help and please respond soon! FYI it says my radio is 10.11.9007.06_M2. Should I maybe reflash the hboot?
EDIT: And in case you're wondering, I've been searching for the solution for hours. I've never been more afraid of anything not working than this phone, and I can't afford a new phone, so please help!
BUMP! Please help I can't sleep because of this
Flash back to stock, do a little research and find the radio version that came with your phone. Flash it.
A lot of times, I've found, the problem with these new unofficial ports of ICS is that the radio doesn't work on them. So go back to stock radio and find a stable ROM to work with.

Thank you, but the same problem persists. I'm not sure what could even be the cause of this problem though. My exact step are to boot by holding vol down and power (im not sure what its called), and then it automatically attempts to install it, but then I get that error message. Afterward I attempted to install it by going to recovery and opening it as a zip file, and that failed just the same.

also is there anyway to install the radio while installing the stock firmware? Why can't you back up the radio anyway? And hwile I'm at it, what does CID even have to do with radio that it would cause these problems? Will location matter? I'm in NJ US.
As far I know you can't dual flash the radio and OS. Also, I think you'll be ok in NJ with a stock radio. Just as fine as you were before all this.
I seem to have somehow messed up my HTC One S's radio while S-off'ing my phone: its now stuck on EDGE. I followed all the steps exactly, but after completing everything, I noticed that my phone wouldn't connect to 3G/UMTS anymore. I know that it isn't a hardware problem as it can occasionally latch onto a 3G signal, but everytime it did, it would have full bars, then the strength would change to 0 dBm and 99 asu, where it would then proceed to switch over to EDGE and signal strength would return to normal.
So I ended up reflashing my ROM, relocking my bootloader, RUU-ing my phone, S-on'ing my phone, trying multiple different RUUs... and nothing works.
Also, there's nothing wrong with my network, as my brother with a separate phone on the same network has no problems. I've even tried his SIM card, but that also gets placed only on EDGE.
Does anyone have any insight on what is wrong with my phone?
Edit: attached the logcat to the OP, and this is when I put my phone on 3G only mode: connects to UMTS:3, however cannot get a data connection, then disconnects and loses the signal.
Yea i had this problem to with cm 10.1 aamd did everything trying to fix and yesterday i flashed pacman room and 3g and 4g works. You can try flashing that Rom.

Thanks for the reply, I've just tried it your suggesting, but unfortunately it's still not working
I guess I'll just leave my phone to run by itself for a while, and hope that it 'clicks' and 3G comes back like what the person in the other thread said happened for him/her.

I'm not quite sure how if data is enabled or not would affect it, as my phone can't even connect to the 3G network. It can, however, get data on the 2G network.

I have just been able to get around to a computer, and have grabbed a logcat of what happens when I switch my phone to 3G only mode and it just disconnects itself from the network (i.e. goes into UNKNOWN:0 mode)
If anyone could look through it and see what could possibly be wrong with my phone, it would be highly appreciated.
The main error I can see myself is the:
Code:
[main] qcril_qmi_voice_nas_control_convert_radio_tech_to_radio_tech_family: invalid radio tech = 0
But then I'm not exactly literate at logcat.
Thank you in advance to anyone who could at least look through it and help me out at least a little bit here. (Yes, it's a .rar file as the file size exceeded the upload size limit)

I have just been able to get around to a computer, and have grabbed a logcat of what happens when I switch my phone to 3G only mode and it just disconnects itself from the network (i.e. goes into UNKNOWN:0 mode)
If anyone could look through it and see what could possibly be wrong with my phone, it would be highly appreciated.
The main error I can see myself is the:
Code:
[main] qcril_qmi_voice_nas_control_convert_radio_tech_to_radio_tech_family: invalid radio tech = 0
But then I'm not exactly literate at logcat.

Have you tried to flash a new radio?

Tried using the radio installer in the Development section: it changes the radio but doesn't fix the problem. Unless someone has a radio.img and some instructions on how to flash it?
Edit: okay, managed to grab a radio.img from the Sense Radio Installer. But I can't install it through fastboot flash radio radio.img even when I'm s-off'd. But a quick question on this: would flashing the radio like this affect CM?

Wow you got a interesting problem. You shouldn't have a problem using fastboot to flash a radio. What error does it give you?
It may or may not effect your phone if you're using CM10. Hardware wise the phone uses the radio installed to it. Software wise in CM10 it doesn't so there can be an effect. But since you've done several RUU's and I assume it still not working on the stock sense rom you can rule that out.
The cover on the bottom of the phone is where the cell antenna's are any chance you dropped your phone or the bottom took an impact?
Dial *#*#4636#*#* and select phone info. Then scroll down a little bit so we can't see your phone number & imei and take a screen shot. Post that here and let's see what it says. Try to take one with WCDMA preferred and WCDMA only.
Also, can you tell us what country and phone provider you have? Have you checked with your provider to see if there are any issues with your account? Did you buy the phone second hand (ebay or from someone else) or from a cell phone store?
Lol, wtf are you telling him to post his phone number and imei for?

The error I get when I try to flash the radio is:
Code:
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
However, when I flash an RUU, the radio version does change, so I'm not sure what's going on there.
As for the screenshots, the first pic is the WCDMA preferred, the second is the WCDMA only, where it has the inital connection to the 3G network, and the third and last one is after it errors out on WCDMA only (gives unknown).
I bought this phone brand new and imported from overseas from an only cell phone store because the S4 version doesn't exist where I live, so as such claiming warranty isn't exactly going to work, hence I'm seeking help like a madman. My phone can still operate the 3G, as it can connect to the network at all, but then it drops the signal and errors. I'm on amaysim in Australia, which operates off the Optus network over here, but there isn't anything wrong with my account, as my SIM card in my brother's phone can get 3G.
On another note: can you understand what's going on in my logcat? or if not, know anyone who can? It might have some information as to how my phone is stuffing up.
I didn't have a detail read of your posts, least look at the logcats. So I'm guessing. I'd put money this is a radio firmware issue. I think if you install this 'RUU' ( radio firmware + config ) it will work http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2157841 - some nitty gritty examples on page4.
I had a similar problem after going S-OFF, it triggered a mistake I made some days or weeks earlier messing around with firmware -> no radio at all. I also noticed only 3G on Optus (using an Amaysim ) until I updated my baseband.
Did you figure anything else out? Because I am suffering from the same problem unfortunately :/ I've already tried flashing different firmware and radios

Well, I tried your suggestion, using the codf4ther's method, outlined here:
1.) Download the OTA from here: http://fotadl.htc.com/OTA_Ville_U_I...2.35.531.7_release_306848u5s8i4b18xs094yw.zip
2.) Unzip this file (the OTA) and the internal zip file called firmware.zip
3.) Edit the android-info.txt file from the firmware.zip in Notepad++ (or similar text editor) and add "DelCache:1" at the end of the file. This might not be necessary, but I did it on mine.
4.) Create a new zip file that contains only the following files, give it a name less than 8 characters (eg newhboot.zip). rcdata.img and wcnss.img might not be necessary, but from what I've read they go along with the radio, so I included them.
android-info.txt
hboot_ville_1.14.0005_signedbyaa.nb0
radio.img
rcdata.img
wcnss.img
5.) Connect your phone to your computer. Execute the following commands in fastboot. If you get an error that says "FAILED (remote: 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately)" after the "flash zip" command just do it again..
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip newhboot.zip
fastboot oem boot
6.) If you're on a Sense Jelly Bean rom your wifi will most likely be broken at this point. Find the wifi fix for JB roms in the dev forum and flash it in recovery.

But unfortunately it didn't work: it's still stuck on EDGE, although if I put it on 3G only, it can hang onto the UMTS:3 status (sometimes) for a little while, although it's 'Out of Service,' but then it would go become UNKNOWN:0. I'm guessing this method is similar to flashing a radio through an RUU (?), but considering that an RUU didn't work... yeah...

So we're in the same boat then. And unfortunately no, haven't gotten anywhere; we seem to have gotten a very bad stroke of luck.

I am not sure if this is relevant but I had pretty much same behavior after 4.0.4 Update .. the phone showed 3g for a while but defaults back to Edge connection .... I do not have a solution yet....
Hey guys,
I believe I have exactly the same problem. My phone randomly disconnects from mobile data on wcdma only & gsm / wcdma auto. Apparently only GSM only is working properly. I'm not using a custom RUU.
I'd like to add that the E, H, G, 3G symbols are displayed in the status bar even ater the disconnection occurs. Furthermore it does not display my phone number in settings. I noticed that the likelihood of a disconnect depends on the area (and thus perhaps on the strength of the signal).
Seems like a slightly different problem to me, mine can't stay connected at all on 3G only, and no 3G or H icons come up cuz it can't get on 3G. However I can get on EDGE data, which is really, really slow. :/
