[Q] No reception/wifi after flashing - HTC Sensation

I'm hoping someone can help me out here. Been going at this for almost 3 hours now
I'm a tmo US user with the sensation 4g. Tried a couple different roms and found reception horrible with all. I then started to mess around with different radios and RILs only to find myself now with no reception and little to no wifi no mater what I flash.
Tried wiping and flashing CM9 nightly and that didnt help either.
Not sure if I need to provide any more infornation but would obviously apreciate any input

CyanogenMod 7 Radio

I am having trouble finding a radio that works with this ROM.
The main problem I am having with the radios that I have tried is:
Weak WiFi signal and GPS not connecting fast enough or not connecting at all.
So could someone please recommend to me a radio that they have working well with this ROM.
Thanks.

What radio are you running currently?
What RIL are you using?
Have you tried "double-flashing" the radio/ril?
Have you rebooted at least twice after radio-related changes?

I am currently using: 26.06.06.30_M
What is RIL?
Yes I have rebooted numerous times over a long period of using this radio...still giving me problems.

Look at post #1 of the Inspire Radio Thread in the dev section. It has instructions on how to check the RIL on your phone, and links to matching RIL's for various radios, including yours.

The AOSP RIL that's built into CM7 is recommended.

I've been having this same problem aswell, I have yet to figure it out, and I don't think anyone here knows the solution. I start to wonder if HTC has more than one wifi antenna going around. Or maybe something is just wrong with ours.
The only thing though is, it only does this with AOSP roms, sense roms are just fine. I say give one a shot.

Yes, that's the radio I'm using.
Dont know why so many are having problems with radio's.. I have flashed all nightlies with no changes to radios or ril and everything works great....just have always done a clean install and all is good...........
...I've flashed kernels that were less than optimum for WiFi...try flashing a different kernel?

Me neither. Seems like someone's always having some sort of problem. I have the feeling the common denominator may be your last sentence.... Clean install.
I think a lot of people are looking for some magical power to give them super ultra lightning fast data speeds and 1/2 second gps lock times with 1/2 meter accuracy. Or something.

[Q] signal issues.

So i have the ns4g and have tried multiple roms to see if i can get better signals/wifi signals and cant seem to really get anything better then the last. Also since this "official so called 4.0.4" rom has come out i was wondering if since this was an official build if the signals would be any better....please if someone could answer this or at least give me some advice i would greatly appreciate it!!!! thanks.

from what i have read it seems that there is a new radio with the new release so i think it MAY help with signal issues. try it out and see.
yeah ive been have the same problems!

[Q] risks of flashing radio?, how to know if somethings wrong?

hi and welcome to another round of neebish questions of the day...
i flashed new radio from stock to version 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M and started reading a bit after, after a while i became aware that changing the radio could affect battery life and also it could be wrong in terms of where i live in the world, ive had it on my phone for several hours, and it seems to be working well, but im just a noob..... how can i know
i was basicly wondering if anyone of u who actually know this stuff could confirm that i didnt do anything stupid ? im putting in the link to where i found the radio files (its posted in the comments on the page by rataplan626, its not the same radio as the one that originally was posted in the thread)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1312144&page=5
thank you for great answers and for being patient with those of us that are new to all of the difficult terms and choices connected to rooting and stuff i hope someday i will be just as big of an resource as you guys
if the radio flashed then everything should be fine. The best way to test is to just use the phone. You won't notice much of a difference though but if you do then something may have gone wrong. But provided it was all done right, that radio should be fine. However, i should advise you flashing radios are not the safest thing for your phone. Also I don't think it makes much of a difference where you are. I flashed that same radio and it's all good for me.
I would advise searching around a bit more though. These questions have been answered many times before.
thnx then it should all be fine
Cheers ^^

V18A The right direction?

I apologize in advance if this is in the wrong section or for anything else.
Hey guys. i have been messing around with this AT&T LG thrill 4G for some time now waiting for a blasted update. aren't we all?
I have also been trying to find the best base band for my area, i find the answer is unclear from searching around. Is there a special sequence flashing the base bands to achieve the best results?
As of now im running the Acura team ROM fine. i previously was running the KING ROM with no issues until i tried a different base band and loss data. anyhow i went back to the BB that worked with king before and could never get data higher then 500 kbps.??
Also thanks in advance to everyone that uses there time to make this happen for us all!

Well i think i have finally made my peace for now, i seems hit and miss.
Its kinda weird to be honest. i can flash a new rom one min and get 500kbps data, and flash a different one and back and get 3G speeds. I have settled with the samba rom with v18a base band. all is well for now.

GPs Accuracy issue (new one)

Trying to track down if the GPS issues i'm having can be coded around without access to the radio code. Any radio after 11.69B on Sensation with seemingly any ROM has bad accuracy issues when using fine GPS while in motion. So RunKeeper , an app that keeps track of your running and distance/speed etc is effectively broken due to this... and altho 11.69A works, it has some other bugs with the latest ROMs so it is annoying me. It's possible there's no controlling things and it needs to be fixed in the radio, thats where i'm looking for some help. I did forward this to RunKeepers developers but haven't gotten a reply yet. I'm sure this impacts other Apps.
The accuracy bounces around enough that when running a straight line down a road, it will bounce to different sides of the street so the app thinks youve run across the street dozens of times while running and it adds up as an additional 1/4 mile of running and throws off all the distance/speed calculations the app does. Previously for years it tracked the straight line you ran and was mostly accurate...
Anyways, thanks!
wrong form section, try to look a bit better next time this is for q&a. U could delete the radio file from the pdg or something. then install 11.69A and then reinstll fw without the radio in the package

You do realize that it is a development section. You suppose to post this in general section.
\Regards,
It does this with 3.32 and 3.33 and all radios newer than 11.69A .. and 11.69A is buggy with new ROMs. Read what I wrote. I asked in Q&A. Try trying to help instead of jumping on someone with pure enjoyment.
I have no trouble changing ROMs, using ADB or even coding Java, but I realize you have the monopoly on development skill and knowledge .. so I thought maybe you had the skill to help me.

i dont understand it completly i think, u want a scertain radio, get the fw for that radio, flash it via fastboot, then get the newer needed fw and only remove the radio file, it should work idk what u mean.. worked for me with hboot
You don't get it. I flashed all the different radios via fastboot already. Latest one that has proper working GPS is 11.69A , which has other bugs in latest ARHD and CM9. GPS works on the others but active/fine GPS is broken and inaccurate. For basic geolocation it would be fine, but for tracking movement and rate of speed etc it's completely broken. It might be hardcoded radio bugs but i'm trying to figure out if perhaps theres something else that can be changed.
So don't just assume that the new guy posting is completely clueless because i'm far from it.

I didn't ever say that u are the new guy that doesnt know ****, but radio 11.29A works in fw 3.33 to so just flash the radio and your problem is over as far as i know..
I did, problem still happened even with 11.69A , just not as badly. It really seems like a non-radio issue at this point. I haven't wiped EFS yet, Trying to find efs wipe tool for sensation, last one i used was for g2 and i dont know if it resides in the same place on sensation

Ohh really..
You know..being an RC iam extremely cautious when I recommend something.. At least I double check it.. Before I post it
Fyi.. That method used to be one of the gps fix solution.. In faq section of arhd thread..
And I must have did that.. Around 5-6 times now.. When I changed the rom
Also I was sooooo cautious first time that I literally dumped those partitions and checked them myself..
So now i believe that you will understand that the efs is at the same partitions
And I suggest you to edit that post of yours.. It will create unnecessary panic to people
