Is anyone familiar with whether or not one can flash a new radio on the HBOOT 2.15.000? I believe the one it comes with is giving me trouble on the T-Mobile network (data drops randomly). I've tried CM10.1 with the 3.4 Kernel, Illusion Rom and PACMAN rom and none of which seem to get a stable connection with the radio-1.13.50.05.31_10.50.08L. Additionally, I can't edit the build.prop file as it's COMPLETELY different than the previous ones. Suggestions?
I've attempted to flash http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2255906&highlight=radio the radio found there via fastboot and received an error:
C:\Users\TE\Downloads\BehradGH_HBoot_2.15.0000_TWRP_Recovery (1)\fastboot>fastb
ot flash zip radio.zip
sending 'zip' (19455 KB)...
OKAY [ 2.160s]
writing 'zip'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 2.194s
I then attempted to flash via recovery and it goes through successfully however, nothing changes, it's still the same radio once I reboot. I've even tried the AROMA Installer for ALL HBoot and that doesn't work either. I've tried install higher radios and lower radios and none hold true once the phone boots. Should I try a different ROM? If so which do "you" suggest? Am I missing something prior to installation that I'm doing wrong?

we dont have a enginering hboot so forget it using fastboot.
use the temp or sense installers in the dev section.
As I said, I tried the AROMA installer from that post (which is the temp installer you are referring to) via recovery and it still didn't work.
I'll try a sense installer and a sense rom later. Thank you.

It will only change the radio version shown under settings-about phone. It will not change it on the bootloader screen. Only the sense installer will do that, but you must have soff. The temp install will also work for sense in the same way.
The signal issue is also a known problem for the new 3.4 kernel aosp roms

It doesn't even change it in about phone section.
So, what you're saying is that if I change the kernel I could potentially solve the erratic behavior of the radio?
I'm not sure if you were linking DarkSense hinting that I should try that or if it's just your signature but I'll get it anyways. Thank you. I'll try your suggestions after work.
I had the same problem, couldn't flash radio, i flashed 3.16.401 through cwm and then flashed ruu 3.16.401 which changed the radio, couldn't flash ruu before because i had higher version than 3.16.401 orange uk branded and had problem with signal once a day i got emergency call only, now i'm with 3.16.401 and no problems whatsoever, stock runs nice on one s till cm gets stable
I struggled with the radio flashing for 2 days having bootloader unlocked and s-off, ****ty branded network

It's my sig. I do the theme work on plus tweaks and other stuff.
You can't just change the kernel on a room that uses a 3.4 kernel, you would either need to switch to a sense room or an older asop style ROM.

Hello all on my first post.
Background:
Long story short,screwed up my phone a little while back, recovered with: RUU_Ville_U_ICS_40_S_TMOUS_2.35.531.7_Radio_1.08ts.50.02.16_10.08e.50.04L_release_279577_signed
Everything peachy after that, then a couple of days after I got a hold of:
RUU_Ville_U_JB_45_S_TMOUS_3.14.531.17_Radio_1.13.50.05.31_10.30.50.08L_release_320836_ICS_2_JB
Then the problems started, every ROM I tried, the connection dropped and had to restart the phone. Tried to Facepalm, Moonshine, Super CID 11111111, nothing. Spent hours reading and thinking how I could get around this, I can't S-Off, so I can't change the radio and use a regular ROM like CM or BlackBean, not that I'm not grateful, just Sense is not really my thing. Tried BlackBean 9 with kernel 3.4 and didn't worked.
Any ROM that is not Sense based would not keep the signal for internet, unless rebooted.
So my question is: once you have HBOOT 2.15.0000 and Radio 1.13.50.05.31 you are screwed, did anyone in the same situation got S-Off or got it to work some how?
I did make a mission to check the forums for the methods I mentioned for the past 3 months, weekly if not daily.
The phone had originally:
HBOOT-1.14.0005
RADIO-1.11t.50.02.22
OpenDSP-v29.1.0.45.0622
eMMC-boot

But couldn't find the RUU with that radio, so used the one with 1.08ts.
Thanks in advance.

Nope. Tried Unknown, DarkSense, TrickDroid and SourcE connection is all good. AOSP [regular] ROMs need to reboot the phone, reload APN settings or get in and out of Airport mode, then it works for a while then drops the signal.
I forgot if incoming or outgoing calls work or not on regular ROMs.

Try the 4.2 ROMs. Data drops have been removed.

Installed ville_PAC_JB_4.2.2-v23.0.0_20130716-224253 last night, in the morning, tried to see a few pages, same shtick, no data connection. But remembered to test the phone and it connected to voice mail.
Hmmm.
Tried Odyssey 2.50 for about 10 hours, no problems. But didn't installed my usual apps, just kept checking on the data to see if it dropped, all good. Then got a hold of Odyssey 2.70 actually put all my apps in, configure the interface and such, nothing fancy.
Then I tried to use the data, nothing, but not even tried to load the pages, I found it strange, because before it was usually after a few hours that the data started to act up with the other ROMs I tried. Then it occurred to me, why not try deactivating DroidWall 1.5.7, BINGO!
Data did dropped at times but it came back up, and loaded the page, I guess it was because a data cap, I'm just guessing. But if it makes it the whole day without giving problems, that was probably the culprit:victory:

Hey the problem is the rom! it just has the meta it need the system file without it it will fail. also you need recorvery clock work mod or twrp without then it is a fail but find a better rom first
I got the same problem. Ran the JB_TMOUS RUU and lost my phone signal. I tried newest CM rom (4.4.2) but it didn't help. Tried flashing temporary radio V4, and it made no difference. How do I get my phone service back?

Now, I am in the same s*** position as you. Did you solve the problem? If you did please, explain how did you solve it.
"cough" A bit late, but just for future reference for anyone that might find themselves with the same problem.
Get a hold of rumrunner to S-Off, thats the only method that I've tried that worked, also if you can't find rumrunner, get a Sense ROM to keep you using the phone.
I gave up after a long wait for a reliable S-Off method, so my phone was stored for about a year been using my old Sensation 4G.
And just to put it out there, always check, double check and triple check before you do anything, if you are impatient at the moment, go out for a smoke, get some gum, drink a beer, whatever you need to do to relax a bit, and then go back to the task, I know is not surgery but it felt like that at times.:silly:

Hi sensation forum...
I am new to sensation, but not new to android or HTC, as i have 4 different phones with custom firmware on them...
But the sensation give me a lot of problems for some reason...
I have tried ARHD 5.0.2 and Insert Coin 4.0.4, i have also tried Virtuous Inquisition v1.3.0 and HyperSensation CM7.1 v1.2.
The last one is not even ICS based...
All of them give me random reboot cycles...
I have tried 3 different radios also...
Nothing have helped me so far...
I still have a lot of random reboots...
(about every 2-10 min)
When i flash the firmware i use ARHD´s super delete script, but to be shure, i also format everything from within Recovery...
What more can i do here ??
Pleace,if your phone is stable, can you tell me exactly what rom/radio/kernal/ril you use...
My phone was rock stable with factory firmware....
Hey,
When installing roms on the sensation, make sure you follow the guides in the particular thread. It is also important to match recommended radios and rils that go with the specific rom. Make sure you are S-off and cid 11111111. When you are switching roms, you should only have to run the superwipe script, it will set all the partitions for you so that you can flash the rom you choose. Also, before you install ICS, it is recommended that you superwipe BEFORE installing the actual rom to prevent unwanted isssues. Before you do anything else, give me a rundown on what you are currently running.

I have exactly this issue.
I installed ICS Revolution. I had successfully got S-OFF, Installed ClockWork Recovery (updated to latest version), permanently Rooted & obtained SuperCID. I updated radio as recommnded by mike1986 in the ICS post, and wiped the phone with Revolution Super_wipe_Sensation first.
It seemed to run fine apart from Doplhin HD which refused to run properly (so switched to Opera Mobile). However I started to get random reboots.
After a bit I thought to try Insert Coin ICS instead.
I have noticed no real difference in performance and have the identical issue with Dophin HD (back to Opera mobile again).
However I also still have the identical random rebooting issue with this ROM. What else can I do?

I did that with Revolution as well as with Insert Coin this time around. Running the latest version
I'm having the same issue. Did a text book install of AHRD. Everything went super smoothly, but getting these reboots. I have tried to swipe everything, have the latest radio and recommended fw and keep getting these crashes. Not only it's driving me nuts but it makes the phone unuseable... I can't believe we're just 2 to have these problems... Isn't there some king of log we can pull to see what's causing the crash ?
---------- Post added at 08:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:52 AM ----------
I suspect it has to do with processor speed that's been tweaked in these roms, but can't seem to find a way to tune it back to stock on the ICS rom...
sorry for the late reply, been busy with holiday stuff.. anyhow, make sure you are NOT installing any mods that are not compatible with the current ICS build. I have had no problems switching between ARHD 3.6.10 and ICS 5.0.2. As long as you have s-off and CID 1111111, you should be good to go. When I changed up from 3.6.10 to ICS 5.0.2, I turned off my phone, went into bootloader, selected the option for recovery, then flashed the superwipe script. After it finished flashing that, it rebooted back into recovery. Following that, I went to install from zip, flashed the updated RUU, cleared cache and dalvik, then flashed ICS 5.0.1 and the 5.0.1 to 5.0.2 update. Everything installed smooth from there.

That's exactly what I did. Can't find anything different between your story and what's I did, up to when I switched to Insert Coin
I also don't think it's related to CPU speed. My phone is the XE model which ran at 1.5 Ghz on stock ROM and only did about 3 random reboots in 3 months; (now it's every couple of hours).

Good luck. Hope it helps. Let us know the outcome. My nandroid backup is corrupted so will need to do full wipe of my SD card and phone I think. Then add in a stock ROM

I'm still getting the reboot on the nand backup (OrangeFR), this sucks big time. Now I'm thinking it may be due to the fw I had to install to use AHRD (PG58IMG) and the new radio. This is where I'm lost. How can I return everything to standard ? If I understand well the ROM doesn't contain those files, they are separate ?
Was thinking that my random reboots were radio or firmware related.
Strange thing is mine have stopped, and all I did was reinstall revolution ICS 5.0.1 then upgrade to 5.0.2. Didn't even wipe first. So even my apps & settings all of which I had installed & configured since I had installed Insert Coin ICS, are all still there. Haven't had a reboot since.

I switched back to ARHD 3.6.9, did a factory reset+wipe, flashed radio 10.59 and all is fine, I'm somehow reluctant to try again...
I found a solution that worked for me... At last...
I am REALLY sorry that i didn´t answer here before, but i have been really bussy, and actually forgot all about it a few days....
NOW, i also thought that i had some CPU spped issue with the roms, becource i can actually get the same kind of reboot problems on my DHD when i run it over 1500 Mhz...
So i thought that i would lock my sensation to max 900 mhz, and then see what happens... NO change... Still random reboot... Strange...
I then installed a Android 2.3 rom, just to get my phone running again... STILL random reboots...
hmmm....
Now i was confused...
At last i tried to flash a different radio one more time...
I found a radio in some other sensation thread... Flashed it and now my phone works stable...
At least with Virtuos Inquisition 1.3.0... (Proberbly the 1.4.0 will also work, but i have not tried it yet...)
The Radio i had the problems with is the one from mike´s thread...
I actually don´t know why, as i have allways had great success with his roms and his releases on my DHD...
The Radio i use now is 10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035-02_2...
But sorry, i can´t remember from what thread...
Ok, this is what i have discovered on this reboot issue...
I hope it make some sense, and that this perhaps can help other with the same problems...
Try turning your phone to recovery.Backup if you havent already....Wipe Data/Factory reset then turn the phone off....
Remove the back cover and the SDCARD.Turn the phone back on and see if it runs ok without the SDCARD, if it does reformat the sd using 4ext recovery and it will also align it.
I spoke too soon.
My phone didn't reboot for a day after I switched back to Revolution ICS 5.0.2 for about a day, then today it began doing random reboots every few minutes. I had not changed any software, just the area (which might have changed signal and frequency the cell tower uses). So I figured it was time to change firmware and radio.
I had previously (prior to installing custom ICS ROM) flashed the radio to 10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2 as recommended by Mike1986 in the Revolution HD ICS thread, and had HBoot 1.7.1111 on my device.
I then downloaded the firmware he posted on his thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412618
This has put the phone back to HBOOT 1.20.0000 and radio 11.15.3504.16_M
Now it's working well and no reboots yet.
Here's hoping.. time will tell.
No matter what radio or Rom combo I get random ass reboots
Super annoying. I did notice the battery goes from 100% to 10% during this reboot
I have calibrated battey. Wiped stats. I'm lost.
I have even tried a new battery. Wtf. Any ideas?
i cant even flash stock ruu I get a 171 error!!!!
Im gonna throw this phone at the f-ing wall in a min
if you flashed newest radio 11...x.x..., you have to have newest hboot also (1.20.. , i guess). otherwise, you will get random reboot. I had this issue before, and i just flashed order radio( i don't want to update hboot version). problem is solved

That's certainly consistent with my experience.

Hi all,
A week ago I bought a brand new Desire S and installed latest CM 7.1 stable following the guide on cyanogemod Desire S Wiki using revolutionary 0.4pre4. Everything was smooth and nice, I flashed ROM and GAPPS and my phone is working absolutely perfectly... but there is one little problem...
I am using Desire to fetch my mails from 2 mailservers using IMAP every 30 mins. But when the phone is switching between network modes i.e. HSDPA -> EDGE or EDGE -> GSM or any other way, I am disconnected from operator network for about 10 seconds until the network mode changes and everything is fine after that, until there is another network mode switch.
This happens for me about 10 times a day, so my phone sometimes appears that It is turned off for people who want to call me. Immediately after connecting to network I get a missed call SMS from my operator.
Interesting thing is, that when I disable email fetching, disable background data transfer and disable network data, the phone works fine without "blackouts".
Can someone help me with this problem? Maybe a radio issue?
Some more info:
ROM: Cyanogenmod 7.1.0 Desire S
Recovery: Revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4
HBOOT: 6.98.1002
Kernel: 2.6.35.14-cyanogenmod+ [email protected] #1
Radio: 20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M
There is a newer radio-file online.
Maybe it's solving your problem.
I'm using MIUI and never had such problems, but i'm interested in flashing CM, so please report if the problem is gone by flashing newer radio!
Which radio version are you using?
Today I am testing 2G only switch so I am on EDGE data only.
Flashing radios is safe......, but a bad radio flash will instantly brick your phone.
You are using 1.47.401.4 radio, try updating to the 2.10.401.5 one.
Thanks for reply.
Shoud I flash something else with the radio?
I have 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 downloaded from cmw.22aaf3.com
Another I have is ftom OTA update zip file OTA_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.8-1.47.401.4_release_225210fmxlt12djw1sr7y5.zip where is one radio.img in formware.zip file too - version unknown
So Which one to flash?
and if so, which method should I use to flash radio? The Android SDK one or the ZIP + Bootloader one?

Both will work, i'm using method by using bootloader normaly
Strangely I had the same issues as you on Endymion.
Then I updated radio to the latest.
It worked well.
Then I went to CM7. It was fine for a while, but now I'm losing signal with no 3G bars and its not switching automatically to 2G like it should when It has no 3G signal!
EDIT:
After really reading your post, I realise my issue is no way like yours! Yours seems really bad. Update your radio.

So, here we go with the results
I flashed 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04, md5sum checked OK, update sucess, but phone with no signal...
I flashed 20.48.30.0822U_3822.09.08.20, md5sum checked OK, update sucess, but phone with no signal again...
I flashed 20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03 back, md5sum checked OK, update sucess, but phone with no signal again...
... what now ... ?
After each flash wiped cache and Dalvik...
in your telephone-info there is shown the new radio after every flash?
do you have removed the batterycover, because there is integrated the antenna of your device!

No, the cover is at its place where it should be. Somehow I did the trick and I am back online with 20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03 on 2G only for now.
I read somwhere in the forum that ENG HBOOT is required for new radios... Are you sure I dont need to flash eng hboot it before new radio ??

in your area 3g is actually available?
may it helps to go outside, to find your net for the first time!
did you set an accesspoint for 3g?
may you have to set automatic settings, rather than 3g/2g-only?!

using same hboot as you, never had problems on flashing radio-files!
yes, in my area there is 3g, when I turn off 2g only switch there is a problem described in my first post, so i am on 2g for now just to keep phone connected to network.
main problem is when i am driving and the phone is switching network modes.
so I give 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 today another chance, try to flash if again.
but i am woried about stucking on HTC logo after flash :-( and brick it.

i already had the problem for several times, and i also pulled out the battery (you shouldn't do that)!
only had to boot into bootloader, start recovery, wipe all partitions, flash rom and was having fun again with my device
this thread could help you, if really stuck on HTC logo
For your real problem on loosing the signal, did you ever tried out using actual stock rom, or another custom one like MIUI?
i used MIUI from 2010-08 till yesterday, now trying out CM7.1 for some days
I have the same or a very similar problem. I have the stock rom.
I already had 3 different desire s motherboard's and 2 different display's.
The first Desire S i had, with android 2.3.3, had a excellent signal. Due some problems i had, the phone bricked and had to go to HTC to repair.
HTC replaced the motherboard and update the version of the android to 2.3.5 and ever since the signal caption, the signal switch was working very bad.
The phone went to a second repair because of this, new phone, and again with android 2.3.5. The problems persisted.
I also tested with different SIM cards, from different mobile operators.
So, my conclusion is either android 2.3.5 or this new versions of Desire S have problems with signal caption and signal switch.
So as you, i need some help with this issue!

But when I reboot to recovery it will flash the radio again I think.
i hate stock roms, and dont like MIUI design That is why I am using Cyanogen
Anyway if I use 2G only switch, the phone is stable as rock both calls and data transfer.
EDIT: OK, flashed 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 sucessfully, signal OK, I will see what happens whet metwork mode switches
@Green Hawk:
give us more information about your device please, which radio you're using? Did they flash actual radion also?
@MyroLM:
report if the problem is still there or it's gone with flashing the rom
I am still testing new radio, but looks good Give me some days let you know...
Hi All,
I have a similar problem with the latest CM7.1 nightly builds (Reaper, jorgen2009). I never saw this with older CM7.1 versions, e.g. Nexx version, ICS, MIUI oder Endymion.
I have WLAN on and leave my house. Phone switches to 2G/3G..., so far so good. When I return home, The WLan sign in the status bar appears again, everything seems to be fine, but I have no connection. I get no data via WLan until I swicth WLan off and on again.
Radio is the latest from 2.10.401.5.
Best Regards
Wrapp
Had similar problems, upgrading to the latest radio helped. I got stuck on the HTC screen and I went through flashing RUU's and unlocking bootloaders back and forth... when the only thing that needs to be done is to wipe the cache.
Learned a lot about bootloaders though. But my warranty got void because i did the htcdev unlock... (Sorry for OT)
Hi all!
After ditching my Desire HD, I bought myself a HTC One S for its faster soc and better screen.
As I was used to having everything working on my former phone I'd expect this for the One S as well..
So far I've reached Unlocked bootloader, SuperCID and S-Off. Still on HBoot 2.15 though.
On PAC-man Rom at the moment and experience some Wifi problems as its not connecting to all wifi networks, yet some of m work.
Tried all sorts of radios from the Development forum, Sense version, Temporally version and CM version. None seem to take effect.
Tried some different Kernels as well, same outcome..
Tried ViperRom (with and without update) this morning and Wifi isnt able to switch on, even after different kernel and radios..
In short... is there a way to get all types of Wifi working on AOSP or Sense rom?
Is it neccessary to downgrade HBoot (as there is bricks reported)?
I'm on 2.15. S-off. Super cid. But I never had wifi problems. Have you tried the wi-fi fix on the radio thread?

I have not found a seperate file tot flash or push for wifi fix, so i presume it is incorporated in the aroma installable radios.
Wat ROM are you on?
OK. Here's what I've found out..
Since I'm really anonoyed by my phone not connecting to all types of Wifi I flashed an RUU.
I did this during SuperCID and S-OFF and just ran a .exe RUU.
First one I tried: RUU_Ville_U_HTC_Europe_1.09.401.1_R_Radio_0.14.3059.14_2_release_243825_signed.exe
It had no effect, booted up, yet Wifi was not fixed.
Next one I tried: RUU_Ville_U_HTC_Europe_1.53.401.2_Radio_0.15.31501S.19_10.12.31501S.06L_release_251412_signed.exe
And voila my Wifi worked.
On Hboot 1.06 now, flashed recovery and next PAC-Man ROM v20.0.0.
Now my Wifi again is selective like it was before.
I hope someone has an idea where to look as I simply don't understand what the problem is..
Tried the Temporary Radio V2 as well, no effect.
Anyone?
In the developer forum there is a radio thread with the WiFi fix.

Have you tried switching your hboot around?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38387544&postcount=148
Thanks for the hint.
However something I found out was that the new version of VenomROM V2.1 does give me full Wifi.
Unfortunately I don't realy like Sense Roms and rather have a different one.
I redownloaded PACman v20.0 and have tried all Hboot versions, none seem to make an improvement on Wifi capability.
Some work, some won't..
Going to try one or two Hboots with different Radio's from Temp Radio installer V2.
Anyone got an idea? Or perhaps a nice Hint again
Hi, I was previously running Android 4.1.1 Venom XL ROM. I saw 4.2.2 Venom XL and decided to upgrade. The upgrade went smoothly, but I have two problems
GPS:
As soon as I reboot the phone everything works. After a few hours, suddenly the GPS will not work anymore. When you bring up programs that require GPS like Maps/Waze, it will not even look for satellites (no GPS icon shown). Once I reboot, things will be ok for a little while. I tried installing the GPS Status & Toolbox App and even when I open that App, it is the same behavior. It works after a reboot, but the GPS lookup does not happen after a few hours. It is big problem for me since I moved to a new state only 4 weeks back and have been highly dependent on the GPS to take me around. Anyone face this problem and have any suggestions? I tried the different options the GPS Status & Toolbox offered but none of them helped. Thanks for your help. Never had any issues with 4.1.1.
Weak signal:
I have seen suggestions of installing BeastMode Kernel or update the firmware to fix this problem and am yet to try this. Do I need to be S-OFF to install the kernel?
My HTC One X is rooted and I have supercid, but it is S-ON.
Thanks for any help in this regard.

No, you do not. The kernel solution is a good option, if you do not have S-off.
Although you should consider s-off, as its easy to do (especially if you already have adb set to go) and gives you more options for recovering (if you are SuperCID and S-on, a Jellybean RUU will brick you). As long as your understand that s-off means all security checks are off (and you therefore need to be careful of what you flash) s-off can be a very good thing to have.
Also, your GPS issue may be related to the signal issue, so kernel or 2.15 firmware fix might solve this as well as your weak signal issue.
Thanks. I did S-OFF, installed the new firmware, reflashed viper xl 4.2.2 rom and I am back in. So far so good. I hope GPS works ok. I was trying to download the latest 4.2.2 beastmode kernel form the following link:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/m53u563v2ql3818/beastmode_tester2.zip
posted on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45089267
Is this the official BeastMode kernel for 4.2.2? It says tester and that is why I ask. Also, I see no specific instructions of how to flash it. Is it just as easy as copy to sdcard and use recovery to flash? Can anyone please confirm?
EDIT: Found the updated link http://nosroms.com/?developer=Evita. But, if someone could still confirm the way to flash the kernel, that would be great.
Wipe cache/dalvik and flash kernel via recovery.

Thanks. All set now. Looks like my GPS is working great :victory:

Thanks for the help.
Hi people,
here is stock kernel extracted from One SV k2_u/k2_ul/k2_plc_cl version but with modded ramdisk.
I put this thread into general section but as soon as sources are out this will be moved into Original Development section and it will be replaced by my new kernel.
Features:
- Unsecured kernel
- init.d support
- Persistent ADB enabled
Instructions:
- Run "fastboot flash boot boot.img" command.
- Reboot & Enjoy!
DOWNLOAD for k2_u
DOWNLOAD for k2_ul

Hi,
Can you mod k2ul version kernel?
@xpirt
Would you be willing to make a tutorial on here as to how you did this, the requirements needed to accomplish it, and what to check for, as well as the changes which must be made for such a modification? I am asking this so many will learn and as well take the idea and possibly grow from it by coming up with even better ideas in the future. Without the knowledge or know how then this will only keep people in the dark and nobody wins from this. You don't have to make a tutorial, but if you were to do so it would be very much appreciated friend.

If someone gives me stock k2_ul kernel I can mod it as well.
@Modding.MyMind I modded it with cygwin kitchen, you can unpack any kernel and edit its ramdisk. The file modded is default.prop.

Experiment went awry!!!! Ended with a nice surprise!!!
So this is a an interesting story. I have tried many ways to finish flashing the OTA's after I have implemented the RUU. None seemed to work. I was missing a key step pull out the firmware.:silly: duh. Im still a very real noob here and learning on my own. And I was on github the other day browsing and searching and there was a put an uncompiled SE supported string for a kernel of our dear phone the PLC. So grabbed and immediatly started browsing reading and learning placing things here and their....I learn hands on, not from stories or guides. Well things quickly went wrong like many of you reading this are thinking and I wound up with a big paper weight hahahaha. No biggie I got 4 different nandroids that I have compiled and the RUU right I am good.
NO SO FAST nandroids wont flash something about error 23 or 24. RUU I ran 4 times deleted re downloaded and ran again nothing. Again I am still not in panic mode I have enough hardware on my computer to makeshift something to get the RUU to download. I dont know how this happened somehow in the midst of my scramble to get my phone back I had put in an old hboot radio and ics boot img. See my phone has never run ics before. So now I was staring at drivers failing cause their is no OS RUU isnt working nandroids wont work. My phone is down and my computer when I take it to work has no internet. I went through my archives and found the data for the binaries and the data for an ics rom but it was bare bones but heck I had no other choice. So I through the old firmware mixed with bits of the newer kernel.
I booted from recovery with adb to oem-78 which I believe is the updater portion of RUU. I ran the the firmware from their I first relocked bootloader before I did this. I did not take the first time/ flush the zip and run it again took like a charm. I then went back to fastboot flashed TWRP 2.6 instead of my normal 2.7 just cause I wanted to booted into recovery no problem. While in recovery I flashed the ICS stock rom like the firmware did not take. No worries ran it again and worked the second time. then wiped cache and dalvic flashed superSU 2.0.2 which was bought from play store and donated for zip thanks btw. and busybox X. booted into bootloader rebooted bootloader like a dozen times and flashed the ICS boot img. twice seems like the theme hear.
K bear with me I know I am long winded. Tried booting into the system after another dozen times rebooting bootloader. finally gave up went back to recovery reflashed ICS rom only once and then did busybox and SU another time for good measure. I did an avance wipe of dalvic and cache this time. booted straight to system and put the phone down came backe 20 min later it was working I played around it was glitch bad but working. I let it be for another 30 min. Came back rebooted a couple times and went to recovery to instantly backup as all mine where now worthless. When I got home I noticed it wouldnt receive wifi signal after playing around I downloaded the latest OTA for the 4.1.2 JB and the 4.5 sense update. Pulled the firmware flashed that after replacing the HBOOT with an old version and then found my other SD card and pulled a bunch of saved stuff off and found a stock JB 4.5 sense rom. flashed like above steps basically to the amount of reboots. lol. I finally got it to boot and within the hour I am running a smooth JB 4.1.2 sense 4+ OS thats what android tuner says my Hboot however says
Unlocked
K2_PLC_CL PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

As u see no line for OS and well no os and no data associated with eMMC just the boot. Everything seems to run way way way smoother now thought even before I started messing around. No lag perfect signal. My call problems gone only thing is my batt percent and my mms but those are pre existing problems I am working on.
My kernel says I am the 3.4 variation. On my phone and in all my apps. Except rom tool box it says I am 3.2
I wrote this hopefully a true dev can take what I did and come up with something amazing that can be used across the board of the ONE SV users.Thanks oh some how my toggle switches all turned orange in bootloader and all my highlited things in the rom turned green dont know how that happened either. :fingers-crossed:

so are you saying that you flashed this kernel?
what exactly do you want a dev to do? i think, by reading what you said, that what you did was, try to compile a kernel with bits and pieces, and when you flashed it, it didnt work? so you tried to restore a backup that you also 'compiled'(?), which failed as well. you then flashed an older hboot which allowed your update to take.... the downgrade to update has stumped lots, including me. its basically the process of manual updating. these phones are all different because the partitions are in different locations in the device. and certain varients have no sim card slot. the radios are running "different channels" etc...
sorry for continuing off topic..
Thanks for the kernel and all your work
