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.

Do I need to flash a new radio?

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

Antenna Reception

Hi noob here, I just want to ask if there's a way to improve the sensations antenna reception, I have been having inconsistent signal sometimes people will call me and even if my phone is on they said it goes straight to vm due to low signal specially when my phone is idle for a long time. Hope someone can shed a light to my problem.
Note: I already tried warranty exchange and same thing, tmobile signal in our area is very good.

You might want to s-off and flash a different radio

Can I flash a new radio and keep the stock rom? I love how the stock sense that's why I never did try to flash or root my phone yet.

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

I don't know, I don't use that ROM. Have you checked your apn? Make sure your network is set to proper setting.
Did you flash the recommended firmwarr?

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

I'll try experiment with different radios and will try a different Rom to see if it changes... Thanks a lot for your help!

Band version radios

Your radios always stay the same no matter what Rom you install on your phone correct?the only way they change is if you personally change them.It that all correct?

Correct in essentials, though flashing an RUU or firmware will change the radio.
