Ok, my search isn't working.
I apologize.
Whats the best general radio for the phone?
And what's the link to the adb thread on how to use it and how to change radios
Im suffering from lack of reception at my house.
My 4G is reception is weak too and my signal bar isn't persistant.
Itll claim I have 4 bars but when I unlock it drops to 1 and none.
I also have pretty weak Wifi signal but I can deal with that.
EDIT:
Oh and my radio currently is 10.14.9035.01_M
I also dunno what to do,tommorow i will get HTC Sensation and i want to install custom rom,and dunno do i need to install different Radio or not... ANy help what to do?

You need to get S-Off before you do anything.
Its fairly simple just follow the instructions in the guide at the Development section of this phone.
Custom ROMs are very easily flashable through recovery.
Kernels are done the same way. ROMs will have there own kernel already for the most part.
Radio is suggested sometimes by the developer of the ROM somewhere in their thread.
I just dont remember how to and which radio is good for general use.
Yeagh i know that stuff pretty much,but it says that it has to be ENG S-Off i don`t really know what`s the difference between s-off and eng s-off...

In my bootloader it shows ENG S-Off.
As far as I know, its the same thing.
i Hope so,also,maybe firstly i should try not to flash radio and just try to install rom without flashing radio,if i will have any problems, I will be able to flash recommended radio and everything should be fine,right?
Flashing the recommended radio should be fine.
Just make sure you flash the radio correctly through adb
Well dunno,don`t really wan`t to mess something up... But if i install custom rom onto stock radio,and if it don`t work well,can i just flash radio ,the one that is recommended? Or i have to do something else?
Radio thread should be in first page.
If you have sdk installed and have environment setup its easy
Boot phone to fastboot
Unrar zip from download and you will get radio.img
In cmd type fastboot flash radio (drag radio.img in cmd window) and hit enter
If you dont have sdk set in environment path then you need to go directly to fastboot path
Example:
C:\android\platform-tools\
Then you do fasboot command, thats is you dont have it set, if you do you can use adb,fastboot I any directory path
And im using 10.56....
Before you flash new radio make sure your ril matches your radio
i think i won`t be doing anything to my phone... Android Market has alot of free,great apps. when i will be unhappy about my phone i think only then i will try to do something with it(s-off,custom rom,radio,kernel etc...) but for now,Merry Christmas. ; ))

Don't I also have to check my hboot version?
I saw somewhere about 1.17 only works with 10.** radios or something

eng boot lets you fastboot flash
which RUU?
Hi,
I am a very noob.
I search the forum and saw there are 2 different RUU for BM:
- RUU_Pyramid_BM_1.35.666.1_Radio_10.50.9007.00U_10.12.9007.21_2M_release_200555_signed.exe
- RUU_Pyramid_BM_1.45.666.5_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_220007_signed.exe
Which one should I use?
My phone currently has:
BuildNumber: 1.34.666.1 CL 79935 release-keys
Baseband Version: 10.46.9007.00U_10.12.9007.01_M3
Please advice.
Thanks.

I'm still not clear on how to read the radio page. How do I figure out what RUU I have to determine the radio?
From the 1.23.163.1 RUU:
10.38.9007.00P_10.11.9007.06
that's how.. lol
the top tells you what RUU rom
and the bottom tells you the Radio baseband
(HTC-RIL 2.2.0159HMQ - TMOUS (Possibly Telstra Stock too according to kira168)
Radio version 10.11.9007.15)
so to find match radio to ruu you must know what RUU your rom is based on to get the matching radio and then you use the radio baseband to find the matching ril
eg Tmobole RUU is 1.53.53_TMOB.ruu
you go the the radio thread and on there it has the correct list of RUU matching radio
so you look for the "RUU #" and you download that radio
Code:
From the 1.45.401.2 OTA/RUU:
10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01
md5: 64a0383b87b4b780cf516f7d7e43b784
From the 1.45.531.1 OTA:
has the same radio as the 1.45.401.2 OTA/RUU
From the 1.50.401.1 RUU:
has the same radio as the 1.45.401.2 OTA/RUU
like that this is the tmobile RUU and its OTA's and he has it listed and shows you the radio never changed from the OTA's then he continues from a new RUU from a different region, but most radios can be flashed they are not region dependent
Hope this clears things up and doesnt confuse more things for you

best is to look what radio have now from settings>about phone>software info>More>
and look at baseband it should give you the whole baseband then look at the radio thread to match the RUU from there.
so my baseband is 11.65.3504.00P_11.19.1504.29_9
ill go to the radio thread and look for the match radio and the OP will have the Proper RUU listed
this example OP doesnt have newest ICS posted yet but example be like that
From the 2.08.401.1 RUU:
11.59.3504.00U_11.16.3504.16

Also, I flashed the boot image via the script provided.
Presently my RADIO is: 0.16.31501S.02_10.18.31501S.08L. Is this a US version radio? or Flashing the Boot Image also changes the radio version?
What is the default version of the Stock Tmobile US Radio for OneS?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It will not change the radio. We currently only have a newer EU version of the radio. However, TMobile released a new update today.
Your radio is the US current excluding the tmobile update that no one has quite yet.
I also noticed that your build is 1.53, when LeeDroid is 1.78. Was this a pre-rom screenshot?
Thanks for your response.
Yes U R Right. his was taken immediately after rooting and a back up.
Then I installed LeeDroid 2.1.
Thanks for the information. I downloaded the new Radio from this thread.

Nope, you have to relock your device before the RUU can be applied, which is currently the only method to update radio software.
Of course, a device with stock rom/recovery, and (re)locked hboot can also update radio via OTA.
If you had a S-OFF device, the radio update would be as simple as flashing a new rom.
-----------------------
However, a different CID may also prevent you from installing a T mobils's radio.
This RUU update can only be applied to those who have T mobile's or the super CID（11111111）

Cerebeln,
I don't think that having root / unlocked boot loader prevents you from installing a new radio. I just booted to CWM and selected the apply update from zip and selected the radio zip and it flashed correctly. Also I believe if you look in this thread you will see that confirmed there also:

hey there. Just another noob question:
How can I find out what radio am I using? Can I flash the PG zip archive in recovery just like I flash the kernel? If so, do I always need to do that when I install roms? Is the radio included in the rom? I think of it as like firmware or recovery, you have to flash the lastest when it was released and that's about it, it does not get wiped when you go to format all parititions, right?
How about firmware? Can I flash this too in recovery? Thx.
To flash firmware you place the pg58img file at the root of sd card , then you boot into bootloader by pulling battery putting battery back in press volume and power at the same time, it will recognise the update and ask to continue press power for yes, let it update them REMOVE the pg58img file from your card or it will continuously try to update the file! I remove mine by pulling the sd card and put in a card reader and delete the file. Delete it how ever you want just make sure you delete it ok. Then your done. That's how you install firmware. Hope I helped.

Hi,
To check radio, go to:
Settings/ about phone/ software information/ more/ baseband version.
Radio gets installed with the firmware.
It does not need to be flashed with every ROM.
Yes, it gets flashed in recovery.
It does not get wiped when you wipe the partitions.
Be very careful when flashing radio or firmware.
Always check the md5 checksum
If you flash the wrong one, or a bad one, it will brick your phone.
So i can flash firmware in 4ext right? If it is wrong... should i get any warning message? Thx

Hi,
Yes, you can.
What firmware do you have, and what firmware do you want to flash?
Sent telepathically from my pyramid
Hi to flash firmware I usually put the firmware on the root of my sd card and flash from bootloader by pulling battery putting battery back in, pressing volume and power at the same time, the device will recognise the update and ask to continue, press power for yes. Once it's updated don't forget to REMOVE the pg58img file from the sd card or it will continue to try to update over and over . So when its finished just delete the file of your sd card. I use a card reader to do this. I just pop out my sd put into card reader and plug into computer and delete the file then put card back into device . But if you don't have a card reader its ok just delete the file however you can. Then your good to go. Hope this helps some . This is how I do my firmware. Best wishes.

(Rev S-OFF) got this from flashing universal 3.33 by mike
I wanted to know is this the latest radio I need for jellybean roms? I am having the Wi-F- turning on issues
I see some of them mention Radio_11.76A? Is this the full name for the radio above?
I have pushed this through Fastboot ADB so am I on the right one?
I have also pushed the Boot.img from each rom and updated to Faux latest kernels but none of this seems to solve the wifi issues

As long as the radio starts with 11 (11.24A, 11.76A etc) it is ICS compatible
I would still update to the latest radio (11.76A) available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1202867
And then do a full wipe of all partitions through 4EXT (don't use superwipe, causes problems) and reinstall ARHD.

You can't backup your radio. What you can do is look in system setting and look for the smalband version.
Most of the radio's you can find in this forum
Reboot your phone in the recovery mode and do a nandroid backup

If it was a 2.xx ruu or the ics ruu, then your Hboot version was the problem. Hboot 6.98 doesn't have the separate /system/lib partition that the more recent stock Roms use, so you could try updating your Hboot (to 7.00.1002) and flashing the ruu again.

So finally, I have managed to S-OFF my phone using JuonoputBear (I never get this spelling right!). Downloaded the latest version for Ubuntu and can't believe I only did the wire trick once and it was done.
But anynow, to my surprise, the JB tool went on installing the JB hboot itself. Initially I thought it would ask me to install it or not and I would refuse it but... it didn't even give me the option. So now I am stuck with the JB hboot which I dont want.
So the questions is, is there any way I can revert back to the stock hboot?
Thanks guys, all your help made it possible for me to S-OFF my phone.
Regards
just to know that with patched hboot you are fully unlocked and you can use all fastboot commands
i don't find a reason to return to official hboot

Thanks for the reply. The reason I wanted to go back to stock hboot was that its highly unlikely that I would be using those extra fastboot commands. Besides, I dont like the Juoponutbear logo on top of the hboot.
Also, now that I am S-OFF, I am kind of gone sensitive to installing any ROM. I intend to install Android Revolution HD ROM but I dont want to flash anything wrong on my device like Radio etc. I only want to flash whats need to run that new custom ROM. I guess that doesn't include the kernel as I already have ICS stock ROM.
Can anyone point me to the right direction? Where I can find the steps to install custom ROM without any risk of flashing something wrong?
Thanks.

Hi,
There is no way you can "Accidently" install a radio.
You are not in bootloader for any length of time normally,so ,it should not matter what is written at the top.
That is just the way Juoponutbear operates and leaves it's mark.
It is the only way to s-off for you,so ,you are stuck with it.
Unless you s-on again.
As for flashing ROMS,put it on the root of your sd card,choose zip,install zip.
That's it.
EDIT:
Someone correct me if I am wrong.
If you flash Kohr-Ah's Universal 3.33 firmware,does it say Universal at the top?

Is that all? I thought that once you have flashed the zip package, you have to extract the "boot.img" from that zip package of the ROM and flash it separately?

Hi,
That is the beauty of s-off.
No separate flashing.

Sorry I had to come back on this one. I was checking the Android Rev. HD thread and in the download section it said it is necessary to flash new firmware package before flashing this ROM/ And the firmware package also contains radio flashing.
Since I am on Stock ICS at the moment and my firmware is 3.32. Do I still need to flash my firmware?
