Loving my HTC One X so far. I have it unlocked, activated on T-Mobile, and running the ViperXL ROM and reception is less than stellar at my house. My wife has the exact same phone (not sure of radio at the moment) and gets 3 bars when I get no service.
The baseband version currently shows as ATT 2.20 (0.19as.32.09.11_2_10.105.32.25). Is it acceptable to flash the HTC ATT 3.18 (0.24p.32.09.06_10.130.32.34) ? Not sure of the difference between the HTC ATT and the ATT radios. I'm in the US, if that makes any difference.
Thanks in advance!!!

The letters "HTC" don't make any difference. They are all from HTC. The difference is one is a later version. Country doesn't make a difference either. The proper radio for your location is often just trial and error. So yes, flashing a different radio is certainly worth a try.
Also, you need to be s-off to flash radios.
Thanks for the information. I've updated the radio to the exact same version as my wife's, but coverage hasn't changed.
Is it possible the ROM/Kernel is to blame? I'm going to test with EternittyProject's CM 10.2 ROM and Kernel to see if that helps anything.
Be careful because flashing a rom for the wrong phone will NOT help your radio issue

If I change my CID to SuperCID and then flash the updated Europe RUU(I'm on Virgin Canada), will that screw up my radio, signal, performance? Or will it be like having the 2.3.4 update?
it will be like running the 2.3.4 update, but i recommend the latest WWE RUU (if available) i DID run the 1.45 europe with no problems, then flashed a new rom and was right as rain

I saw one RUU That said Europe 1.45 and one that said Europe LE 1.47. Any idea on which one is the better to use?
Also will I still get H+ or just H?

i still havent run teh latest 1.47, which i need to cuz i want to test the latest InsertCoin roms with peak performance and minimal issues...
i would assume that it would not cause any issues, and can always be rolled back by running an older update (no locked basebands, thankfully), but more than likely your phone performance will improve with the updated radio
Thanks a lot. I noticed I was only getting an H now instead of H+. I don't really have a data plan so I'm not to worried about it. It works better with the update. Thank you
It's because in the EU we don't have H+/4G - H is the highest icon you can get

Where did you get this update from? I just checked mine and it said no available updates.
hes talking about the att update.
no dont install it
Yeah the att one if i install it what will happen i dont see why i cant when att users can install the rogers firmware but that makes no sense why rogers users cant install att firmware? Weird.
you have to be s-off to install other carrier's rom.
it depends on your cid.
I believe rogers cid is
CID-ROGERS001
Either you have your device in s-off mode...
or you need the signature to match I think...
But why can att users use the superpatch to use the rogers rom. Can someone just create a superpatch for rogers users to use the att firmware
Why do you want att so bad? There's nothing in that ruu that benefits you...

Firstly, the superpatch is for the shipping ROM on the AT&T OneX. If you run it on an updated one, it will replace files with older ones and potentially cause problems.
Without being able to safely run the superpatch, you'll be left with many of the deficiencies that AT&T users experience vs. our Rogers phones. Like no LTE toggle, and probably that issue where youtube links don't open in the youtube app.
These are flashable zips that will change your baseband (radio firmware). Google it See twistedxx's post quoted below if you have no idea what this means. If you have an HTC One X (Tegra 3) you're in the wrong place.
twistedddx said:
Radio = firmware
RIL(radio interface layer) = driver
Android = operating system
All 3 are "programs" that are running at different "levels", I have listed them from top to bottom in the order typically considered for how they interact. It is important to understand that a program is just code and how they interact is a philosophy programmers created and are now use to and not because it has to be set out that way.
In the case of the RIL, the API rarely/never changes so it is rarely/never updated.
The actual changes HTC make happen in the "Radio" program.
This is opposite to how say Windows/Nvidia tackle things. The firmware rarely/never changes and they make their changes in the "driver".
In Nvidia's case they do this because there is no standard way in x86BIOS/Windows for GPU firmware to be loaded from something as simple as the installed HDD, the firmware is actually written to chips on the card itself. It is just simpler to make all the code that gets changed inside the "driver" which is easily updated.
For our phones "radio" its trivial for the changes in code to happen at the "driver" level or the "firmware" level, HTC/Google decided they would stick changes in the "firmware". They did this because they created a separate partition for the radio so that they can protect it separately to the OS. Android typically means the phones OS should be open for tweaking, so it must be assumed the driver could easily be replaced.
Countries and Carriers have licensed spectrum to protect and transmitters must be licensed to use it, running custom radio code would break laws in many countries. This leads to the radio firmware being protected much more heavily than the OS itself.
It is because HTC is lazy and because we have awesome devs that we can replace the radio firmware at all. As far as HTC, Country communication regulators and carriers are concerned the user should NEVER be altering the radio software.
Radio:
radio(fancy code stuff) <-> ril(boring translator) <-> Android OS
Nvidia:
firmware(advanced fixed code that allows for flexible access) <-> driver(fancy code stuff and translator) <-> Windows
Note:
Radio is about wireless communications
Nvidia is about graphics processings. They are not similar technologies just some tech you may be familiar with.
PS. API = application programming interface.. and lets just say if you do not understand what that is.. I cant be arsed trying to explain that, go Google it.

If you're on the newer HBOOT (1.14) and insist on running a Sense based ROM use the Jet tool to downgrade to 1.09. This will allow you to write to the radio partition of the phone. Or just S-OFF (w00t!)
If you're running a CM 10.x ROM it doesn't matter what HBOOT you're on as the radio firmware is stored elsewhere (in a writable partition... /system to be precise).
Instructions:
1) Copy zip file to SD Card
2) Boot into Recovery (CWM or TWRP)
3) Flash
4) Reboot
Always take a Nandroid Backup in case something goes screwy!
Your bootloader will not show the correct baseband. I'm working on figuring out how the RUU updater handles the android_info.txt in the firmware.zip's

I think over in the S=OFF Thread they've thrown around a few theories, I dont think any of them involved the radio partition.
The take away from this is that we've been able to flash images to partitions we didnt think we could without S=OFF (kernel, radio) so it might be a relatively moot point to achieve it. As far as ROM Development is concerned anyhow.
I think... could totally be wrong about all of that, though. =)
This is amazing man thank you!!

Why are you so adamant on achieving S-OFF now that were bootloader unlocked and we can flash full ROMS with the ability to flash the boot.img and flash the radios from within recovery there is absolutely nothing more that you need except for HTC to release the source. Once HTC releases the Source we can start getting custom kernels and AOSP ROMS can get moving.

Anyone of the radios from your carrier will work. Just depends on how well it will work. There should be a Google maps link for radio compatibility. Its hit or miss really. If your Hboot is below >1.14 ie 1.09 etc then you can flash in recovery and try them on for size.

The radio does not have to be from your carrier. You can flash any radio on any network (well, I shouldn't say "any radio" on "any network" because I'm not POSITIVE that's true, but I've flahsed several non-AT&T radios and have no problems on AT&T's network.

That's pretty true. As long as its a radio meant for our device, it will work. Whether it works the "best" or not is based more on your very specific geographic location, more than carrier. So I've had instances where the best radio for my device was not the one for my carrier. Pretty sure I'm on a non-AT&T radio right now, and have been for months.
In addition to what you learn from the map, newer radios might be a good place to start. HTC is continually trying to make improvements to the radios with each new one. But again, it doesn't always pan out that way, and not a sure thing.

I'm pretty sure that cm10 takes its radio from a non protected partition, hence why it's a different radio that needs to be installed. And I think they are non hboot dependant. But I don't run aosp so I'm not positive.

I'm pretty sure you can only flash Verizon radios on Verizon phones. Any other radios you try flashing will most likely brick it.
As said above, radios are unique for each carrier. Flashing. Any other radio will brick the phone.
