Does the firmware and/or mis-matching RIL affect Bluetooth? - HTC Sensation

Just wondering if this is the case and I should update firmware. My network coverage seems to have no issues, my WiFi at home seems to hav no issues but the Bluetooth in the car is aggravating! GetRIL tells me "unknown" and I have reported it but no response. ARHD 6.8.0 3.33 faux10.

With Android Revolution HD versions try to use firmware from here:
Firmware from 3.33.401.6 & 3.33.401.106 RUU
Just download the latest firmware version and flash it.You probably won't have any issues after that.I suppose you are S-OFFed!
Why you don't install the latest ARHD (7.3) from here?

Thanks. Yes, I'm s-off'd.
I'd kept an eye on the forum as 7.* was released and spotted a few posts mentioning issues with random restarts among other things so I held off cause my current configuration seems to go well and didn't want the dramas. But you reckon it's good to go?

I have been trying to fix this for weeks since I got the phone....
I installed 1.17, and that did nothing but put me into a complete bootloop.
I put the modified version here that was posted Tessut, fixed permissions in 4EXT and booted into my ROM (Energy 3-15.12), and same ****...no sensors.
I have even installed the RUU for ICS from HTC (EU version only as there is no ICS RUU for TMOUS yet)...and then I installed my custom ROM and same issue.
I have tried the Stock Kernel and the Bricked Kernel (Bricked-3.0-v1.1-ics), and no success.
I AM SuperCID'd: 11111111
I am also noticing that I am not the only one with this problem with any fixes applied also. The hardware is functional, I have tested the chipsets individually and they are on and working, just no readings (events).
At this point I am ready to pay someone money if they come up with a successful fix. If you have a PayPal account I am more than willing to contribute a fair price if I can get this **** working!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have lost all hope on this :-(

@Tessut: I am guessing that this is the only solution we have now.....perhaps when the ICS release is finally made it will solve our problems.
Otherwise I have a phone here that is VERY frustrating to use with no sensors....

Hi all,
I have 2 htc sensations on hand
Sensation A was originally from Cincinnati Bell, it's rooted with ARHD 6.6.7 XE running good.
Sensation B is a factory unlocked model, CID HTC_044 (some asia model)
My problem is, Sensation A sometimes gets very low to non signal at some places (specially indoor)and the connection on mobile network is terribly slow (HSPA), while my Sensation B gets almost full or full signal at the same places and mobile network works good(HSPA).

yes do that
1.check the current radio of sensation B (settings-.about->soft wrae information->more->baseband)
2.get the same radio and matching ril from this thread
3.flash the both on sensation A ..using the instructions ..which are given in the same thread
help
Sensation A :
Before OTA ICS update:10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M (was great on data connection)
After OTA ICS update : 11.69A.3504.00U_11.23.3504.07_M2 (acceptable)
Sensation B :
Baseband version: 11.69A.3504.00P_11.23.3504.07_M2 (not too good)
The only difference between both baseband is an U and a P, will this make that much difference? plus I can't find a file to download and flash it!

Hi,
The "U" and "P" are just carrier related,and should not make any difference to the radio signal.

Hi,
You must understand that signals vary throughout the world.
I cannot say what would be best for you in your area.
Sometimes you have to experiment with radios and rils,until you find the one that is best for your phone.
Do you flash a new radio base band version just like you would a Rom or kernel.and I know it goes off your area so does like go off of your city,state,country could someone please explain.

I think you should only have problems if you use a newer android version on a older firmware. The firmware has some type of backwards compatibility in them but roms can become buggy if you uses a older firmware.

To update the firmware put the pg58img file on root of sd card,boot into bootloader by removing battery, place battery back in, press volume down sand power at the same time, the device will recognize the update and ask to proceed, volume up for yes. The device will then update and reboot.once fully rebooted REMOVE the pg58img file from the device or it will continue to update ! You now successfully updated the firmware! It will be successfully updated. Hope this helps you.

What radio are you on now. If you have 11.76a you have 3.33, unless you flashed the radio separately in the past.
Are you trying to flash leedroid tweaks or something?
I'm using Insertcoin Evolution 2.2 now and am having a great time.

Update 6.6.7 to --- ARHD 6.7.2 | ICS

At the risk of sounding like a noob, sorry in advance! I've been trawling through these posts but have been unable to find a straight answer so here goes.
I'm using a rooted HTC Sensation with ARHD 6.6.7 XE w Beats Audio, Firmware 3.32.401, HTC sense 3.6. Everything works perfectly!!!!!!!
I just want to update to latest ARHD 6.7.2 ,XE w BA.
Can I just flash the ROM update and be done?
Or
Do I need to - superwipe, update firmware to 3.33.401 and then flash ROM?
Very much appreciated. H

From the ARHD thread
No need to Super Wipe if you have 6.7.x already!
- 3.33.401.x firmware is required!

Yes you need to super wipe before you flash 6.7.2
Just backup your apps with Titanium backup and messages with SMS Backup and Restore.
EDIT
Stay on 3.32 Firmware because it has an unlocked boot loader. It will still work.
Thank you very much!!

Hi,
Going from 6.6.x to 6.7.x ,you are changing bases.
You need to wipe in recovery...
Format all partitions (except sd card)
Then install new ROM.
It will work with the 3.32. firmware,but you get the new radio with 3.33 firmware.
You can get 3.33 universal firmware HERE

Could you left an information if you still believe to old firmware, because I have the same question and would like to reseive experiences.
In some cases is it better to go to next firmware, new radio better corresponding to new rom. So I am not sure to let old firmware worlk with the new rom.
Other question:
Is in the new firmware the bootloader locked ??? I hope not. So why do not upgrade to new firm ?
I found the firmware here
Many thanks for reply.

3.33 has a locked bootloader, so no do not update from 3.32.
Yes superwipe between 6.2.7 XE and 6.6.7 XE
All ARHD ROMs are stable, smooth and good with battery life (in my experience anyway)

Firmwares that I have posted:
3.33 Universal is the latest/stable release ICS 4.0.3 FW for Sensation (sense 3.6 Version and works for Sense 4 also)
3.32 Universal is ICS 4.0.3 FW for Sensation (sense 3.6 Version) that has the Unlocked bootloader (posted by Mike1986)
3.30 Universal is ICS 4.0.3 FW for Sensation (sense 3.6 Version) that has the Unlocked bootloader (posted by Mike1986)
3.24 Universal is ICS 4.0.3 FW for Sensation (sense 3.6 Version) that has the Unlocked bootloader (posted by Mike1986)
3.12 Universal is ICS 4.0.3 FW before that (Sense 3.5 Version)
1.17 Universal This is the original Revolutionary 1.17.1111 Firmware with a completed Gingerbread Firmware v 1.45 package (Radio 10.14.9035.01_M)
So what is universal about it?
I have added a method found by mf2112 that allows the android-info file to have a wildcard tag. So instead of having a T-Mobile file where the android-info file has every cidnum the identifier is one entry into the android-info file and it covers every possible CID that T-Mobile has.

Not sure about the other firmware but use the universal as suggested because it does NOT change the boot or lock anything, I've upgraded my self to the 3.33 universal the one that won't lock or change boot. I've had zero issues and it has been wonderful . Make sure to READ before you install to be sure your downloading the correct version. You place the file at root of sd card, boot to downloader by taking battery out put battery back in, then press volume down and power at the same time. It will recognise the pg58img file and ask to update, press power for yes. Once the update is completed and rebooted. REMOVE the pg58img file! If you don't it will want to continue to update over and over inside the downloader, so delete the file soon as your finished. Hope this helps. Best wishes.

The purpose of this particular Q&A was to eliminate confusion about the update. Now I'm confused.
Will a firmware update to 3.33 universal give me a locked hboot?

Hi,
Yes, you can try to run 6.7.0 on 3.33 firmware.
Make a nandroid first.
The basic difference between 3.32 and 3.33 is only a newer radio.

Hi,
"To briefly explain with a somewhat-less-than-accurate analogy for the purist, the radio you can flash is like a firmware package in Windows terms, and the RIL is like a driver. It is important to match them for best results, or else poor or no reception is likely, as well as high battery drain." (Quote from HERE )
The radio controls mobile data,wifi,basically all radio signals in the phone.
A good radio/ril combination is required for good reception,and even good battery usage in the area in which you live .
Check the link above to see if you can get more information.

I think so, the phone isn't mine.
I'm sure only that is s-off with hboot 1.27.
I've flashed the latest htc stock version: RUU​_PYRAMID​_ICS​_HTC​_Europe​_3.33​.401​.6_Radio​_11.76A​.3504​...
I try to downgrade to 1.50 and 1.28 but give me the same error (I hate android, it give me only the message error...what kind of error?!).

If I read the info, under Wifi MAC said: not avaiable, maybe is a kernel problem?

The last chance and the ABSOLUTE one, is fixing permissions.
After searchin a lot n talkin with whole lotta peep around the world, when i found no solution, eventually when i was cycling thru the tweaks, i tapped fix permissions n now it works quite awesome!
Go into your recovery (as u said, cwm touch) n go to (i think) tools section, then "fix permissions".
Press thanks if worked.

I try arhd 6.8.0 with faux123 kernel.

After all this maybe is an hardware problem, wifi module broken...
