What's the point of flashing a different radio?

Some give a better signal than others, depending on your location. Call quality is also affected by the Radio you have. If you don't have any issues, you likely don't need to flash a new one unless it's just to test it out to see if it's better for you.

I'm using King Kangers One, even though it's not being developed anymore. I tried to compile a new version myself, but it failed cryptically and I've not had the time to really sit down and tinker with it. Works well enough for me, and that's what matters in my book.

thanks I'll give it a shot.

Thanks for answering my question
I look forward to seeing this incorporated into new roms
the bug isnt in the radio itself its the way that the system handles the gps cache files as for dk17 i have a 10m lock now, much improved over di18's 30m
I must be lucky or live in a good area. I get 3m now and with the stock 2.1 ROM/kernel/modem.
So how do I fix my gps problem

It is the radio. Di18 had this accuracy hardcoded into it, so even if you had better, it still would show 30 meters. This did not affect the performance. On the other hand, at least for me, something in the old radio did cause crappy performance in the form of constant signl dropouts and crapy snrs.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
correct the gps conf files tell the gps at what point to stop trying to search for a better signal and that is because they dont want your battery to be sucked dry by gps constantly looking for a 6m lock when it cant get it.

CWM Recovery? Ports? Lol??

Hey,
I just wanted to know if
Once we get CWM Recovery up and fully working on our SGS4G
Are we going to be able to ge ports over?
Like STOCK Android (2.3), Sense and etc....
Or are we going to have similar problems like the Vibrant had??
Thanks

Nah there won't be similar issues with the SGS4G because of its different hardware and build

Gingerbread ports should be fairly easy; fixing CWM, however, might still take a while.

2.11.605.2 ruu

http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...build-2-11-605-2-ruu-for-the-htc-thunderbolt/
Anyone deodexing and rooting this?
Nice find.
Hopefully its the released version of GB for the Tbolt and will work its way into a vartiety of ROMs, such as NonS3ns3.
Do you know what radios go with it?
Is it safe to flash this if I am rooted, running gingerbread with s-off? I know I would lose root. Thanks.
As it stands right now, if you are currently rooted then do not flash this ruu.
Wait until the devs gave time to build and test.
Once a Rom can be pulled from this build, we may get an opportunity to try it out ;-)

I'm pretty sure he didn't mean the other way around. Think about it... If you take the camera libs from 605.2 put them in a 605.0 ROM you have added all the changes from the new version without creating another virtually identical ROM.

User error.
Edit: allow me to elaborate.
1. You seem to only call it buggy and useless never asking what you could do to fix it or if anyone else is experiencing the same issues. You are a troll in the purest form and attacking developers hard work is idiotic.
2. You have in no way shown me that you have even the slightest competency in these forums so your merit is in question.
3. Now that the call audio bug is fixed the only thing I can think of that's left is mhl support and this could hit stable. If cm endorses a build as official that means a certain criteria must be met and verified its not a title cm will allow you to slap onto your average build.

I haven't had issues with files on cm in a long while.
Is VoIP a native feature of the 727 because if it wasn't then its not required.
Edit: are those enough to call a ROM useless or garbage? I ask because he has called cm both. Is that acceptable to you because trashing devs in my eyes means you better have the skill to do better.
