1.Its supposed to help with signal and maybe battery consumption

2. Yes need to reflash after every new rom

3. Doubt it can brick it. May cause signal or data loss as already happend on aosp roms (cm7 or miui)

4. No for latest test radio with unkwon source is no RIL yet.
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
RIL for 12.39.60.19_26.06.04.06_M added, have fun!

Is there still a RIL that somebody wants?
[Desire HD General] ninja.rogue:
yes, the one for the latest radio.... I am using this radio and am not sure whether it is better to change radio and use your proper ril for it or wait for your next ril.....

I thank you very much for the hard work, nonetheless!
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
I will release a RIL for that radio when it becomes possible :)

In the mean time you can use RIL for 12.35d.60.140f_26.08.03.07_M with that radio. It works well.

Results

Good Job, guys!

That's what I did.

ARHD 3.5 + radio 12.48.60.23U_26.08.04.07_M3 (unknown source)

Original RILs (for recommended radio 12.35d.60.140f_26.06.03.24_M2):

HTC-RIL 2.2.0079HM (Jan 14 2011,14:56:03)

New RILs (for 12.35d.60.140f_26.08.03.07_M):

HTC-RIL 2.2.0131HM (Mar 18 2011,00:40:15)

Results so far:

GPS is actually usable for the first time since upgrading from ARHD 2.x to ARHD 3.1.

Before flashing new RILs, with both recommended radio and the new unknown radio it took GPS status about 12 seconds to display satellite positions and about 18 seconds in total to get a GPS fix (outside, away from buildings).

GPS status displays satellite positions within

Immediately after flashing the 2.2.0131HM RILs, GPS status acquired satellites within 8 seconds and got a GPS fix within 12 seconds.

10 hours after flashing I did repeated trials, each time immediately following a reboot and enabling GPS only when prompted by the GPS status. It's now taking between 6-9 seconds to return a fix.

GSM Cell reception might be less stable indoors.

My house sits between several distant GSM masts and the connection constantly shifts from one to the other even if I sit in one spot, so it's difficult to record signal strength dB figures because they keep changing. But on the whole as long as I keep the GSM radio turned on I don't have a problem with voice calls. Shortly after flashing however I took a call (from a landline caller) and had to go outside because their voice kept breaking up.

Looking at it now sitting in the same spot the signal is constantly varying between 2 bars at -103dBm and 5 bars at -89dBm but mostly between -97dBm - -91dBm as the connection shifts from mast to mast. I never noticed this before, not to this extent anyway.

Indoors Wifi Reception

No discernible difference, neither in terms of WiFi signal, network latency nor speedtest.net throughput which is still topping out at ~ 3Mbps (I'm limited by my crappy BT ADSL line, ancient rusting copper that winds its way lazily around the whole town before reaching my door).

I can live with slight deterioration in cell signal, it's great to have GPS working properly again.

It is mate. But you have to Read!

Ah. We can't read it with tapatalk.

Well. Jkoljo, edit your code please?

[Desire HD General] DeathEvil:
what is the source for RIL 12.35d.60.140f_26.08.03.07_M? I take it, these are official dumps of data from official official roms on newer phones?

please clearify
[Desire HD General] seatibiza:
ah it´s added..thx :)
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
It is in the first post :eek:
[Desire HD General] fizzy15:
have flash and no different in cellphone signal, gps and wifi..

i only notice my battery run much faster now.. last night.. after full charge.. it drain almost 50% when i wake up in the morning.. about 8 hour sleep.. surely my phone sleep also with me.. no new software added or change any push setting.. never happened before.. before this it just drain 10% to 15%..radio and rom as singy.. got to restore my previous setup.. lucky i backup everything..

:confused:

This community is just amazing. Group hugs? :D
[Desire HD General] Leechoonhwee:
Some report findings just for those who are on the same radio as me.

Radio 26.08.04.07.M3

RIL 2.2.0131HM => Download speed 1.11 Mbps Upload 0.09 Mbps Ping 146ms

RIL 2.2.0079HM => Download speed 0.19 Mbps Upload 0.08 Mbps Ping 138ms

RIL 2.2.0028HM => Download speed 0.52 Mbps Upload 0.08 Mbps Ping 212ms

RIL 2.2.0099HM => Download speed 1.39 Mbps Upload 0.08 Mbps Ping 103ms

From the above, rule of thumb should be if you are on GB use a GB RIL, likewise for Froyo.

Signal Strength, GPS and Wifi performance are all about the same for me with GPS locking in under 5 secs cold start.

Will report back again if I find anything more. :-)
[Desire HD General] Leechoonhwee:
Thats possible as the radio might be using extra juice to hunt for signal.
[Desire HD General] gopiter:
I can't see any improvements after installing a "correct" RIL...There is one difference but I am not happy with it...Since I instaled RIL my phone is always in 3G (UMTS) network instead of HSDPA as It was before flashing.After boot it connects to HSDPA (H near the signal bars) and after a while it changes to 3G (UMTS) and never goes back to HSDPA.It is strange and slows down dowload speed.I think I'am going back to RIL that comes with rom...
[Desire HD General] memnoc:
Hi everyone;-) I have 26.03.02.15_M3...what ril should I flash?
[Desire HD General] :
for those of you that flash these RIL files, some important info (also to the creator).

Depending on the recovery and the contents of /sbin, the run_program command may not work as desired

So for a lot of you, this "mod" MAY actually do nothing and you are seeing a placebo effect :)

You can manually check with the apk that was uploaded to this thread - before and after for the RIL Version file.

rather than using

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");

I will suggest to use

another method for mounting such as

run_program("/sbin/mount", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p25", "/system")
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
I changed, re-uploaded and re-linked all the files, I hope it makes some difference :)
[Desire HD General] memnoc:
Can u help me please??;-)
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
You should flash your radio. There is no point in using that old radio.

But I can make a RIL for that later if you still want one.
[Desire HD General] memnoc:
It would be better;-) this radio is amazing! Good signal and good battery life with every rom..ther's no point in changing it cause everything works perfectly..
[Desire HD General] hongkongpheoy74:
jkoljo, I'm using the apk provided in this thread to view the RIL version, I have radio 12.35d.60.140fU_26.06.03.24_M2, and it says my HTC-RIL is 2.2.0079HM (Jan 14 2011), is this the correct matchup?

Just might want to put a table together in the first post that shows the version to radio information, just for others as well.

Thanks-
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
I do not know about that RIL ver. number. If you have time to put up a table, I would be glad to edit that to second post with credits.
[Desire HD General] rgrover:
I was thinking the same thing...
[Desire HD General] hongkongpheoy74:
Ok I'm now confused as to how you know which RIL goes with which radio if you don't know about the version numbers... but anyways, my two bits on this one, I am running revolution HD 3.5 and it recomments radio 12.35d.60.140fU_26.06.03.24_M2, which appears after flashing the RIL zip for that radio the RIL has stayed the same HTC-RIL is 2.2.0079HM (Jan 14 2011). So you can at least add that one to 'the table' I know that probably some people are thinking, duh, that's why the chef recommends that radio, but I guess I like technical excercises.:D
[Desire HD General] tmh:
You can see what the RIL version/ID should be, by opening the libhtc_ril.so file in the RIL .zip with Notepad or whatever and search for "htc-lib". That way, you can compare to what the ROM you have installed is using, and see if things are already as they should be.

For 12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2, the RIL version/ID is 2.2.0048HM (Nov 17 2010,10:44:47).

This is by the way what I was asking for yesterday, sorry if I confused anybody ;)
[Desire HD General] ehsan76:
Is my RIL best match of my Radio??

Hi,

I have Radio 12.48.60.23U_26.08.04.07_M3 installed on my Desire HD with VIVO Gingerbread port.

According to the RILInfos tool I have HTC-RIL 2.2.0131HM on my phone which I believe is the latest RIL.

Can anyone confirm if it is the best match to my Radio or should I use any other RIL??

Thanks in Advance :)

Ehsan
[Desire HD General] cocchiararo:
The one recommended in this thread has 0099 for its last digits, seems older.

It was recomended for an older radio tho, since the one from the unknown source has no accompanying ril
[Desire HD General] ehsan76:
Thanks for the info :)

This Radio that I installed was recommended by the Developer with the Rom and so far its working great. Lets see we if we get a confirmation of the source soon :)

Thanks again :)
[Desire HD General] almo12:
Hi,

Thx for this thread.

The improvement is really impressive : 26.08.03.07 radio + its RIL was 10% battery at the end of the day and now 60% with some few calls, download and sms.
[Desire HD General] carmaruti:
what a difference

After I patch the RIL file.... Battery life is better, signal is awesome few drop calls. I use to get sucky upload speeds !300 kbs now after patching RIL I am getting > 1.2 mbs upload and ! 4 mps download very impressive

Thanks man for making this available and educating all of us, this is the first time I had heard about RIL, and it works !
[Desire HD General] Juicy47:
I've always matched RILs, even on CM... can you explain why it is not necessary for CM based ROMs?
[Desire HD General] no_johnr:
I guess it is necessary, but this are the HTC Sense ones, and they seem to mess up CM. I guess the CM-developers already provide the correct RIL's if they have a recommended radio. Never looked into CM myself...
[Desire HD General] leppie:
When building CM7 from source, it requires libhtc_ril.so as a propriety file. It seems CM7 does indeed build libril.so.

I am using the above on my phone. No issues so far.
[Desire HD General] fizzy15:
Maybe because I use gb. Need to use gb ril. Radio from froyo but give better battery life here. I always fix wcdma.. not using gsm.. slow..

HTC-RIL 2.2.0099HM (Jan 27 2011, 16:12:49)

The RIL did not seem to change but clockwork says it applied it successfully. So is this the same version?
[Desire HD General] cocchiararo:
correct, that just means that coredroid had the same ril you just installed.
[Desire HD General] cocchiararo:
questionnnnnn

i downloaded a ril package from a post (don't remember where, but it was XDA :P) named:

HTC-RIL_2.2.0099HM.zip

it has one extra file:

/system/bin/rild

Any chance thats actually needed ?
[Desire HD General] spikey68:
Awesome dude. All weak signal issues resolved.
[Desire HD General] memnoc:
I'm waiting for my ril:confused: I hope soon:(
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
I am working on it now :)

I have been busy for the last few days..

edit: It is up. Have fun!
[Desire HD General] no_johnr:
I've extracted the versions from the libhtc_ril.so files. I've also checked that files with the same version have the same MD5-checksums.

[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
Good job, I will add it to second post! :)
[Desire HD General] cocchiararo:
Any word on some ril packages floating around with the /system/bin/rild binary also in them?
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
I did not add it in the first place because it is not a library file, and then I asked some devs about that, and they said that rild is not needed.
[Desire HD General] Spyr0s:
Maybe you should also add

su
getprop "gsm.version.ril-impl"

so everybody will now how to check the ril version with Terminal Emulator
[Desire HD General] cocchiararo:
its a binary, by its name i guess its the daemon.

If you say its not needed, i believe you :P (besides, i had just one pack with it included)
[Desire HD General] Spyr0s:
This can be fixed, you can make your radio to be fU instead of fP

Edit \system\build.prop with Root Explorer

find the lines

ro.ril.hsxpa= 3
ro.ril.enable.dtm = 0

and change to

ro.ril.hsxpa= 2
ro.ril.enable.dtm = 1

Save & Exit

Reboot

Go to Settings -> Information and you will see that fP changed to fU, of course this works the opposite way if you like.
[Desire HD General] memnoc:
thanks mate:D but...where is it?:( I've checked in the first post but..nothing:( nothing for 26.03.02.15.M_3
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
You can use 12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M RIL for that :)
[Desire HD General] memnoc:
It was 4 me mate? So that ril can be used with every m3 radio?
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
For every 26.03, yeah :)
[Desire HD General] memnoc:
thanks so much mate:p I'll give u a feedback then:D
[Desire HD General] memnoc:
...so i flashed it and nothing is changed cause I already have the right ril 2.2.0131 HM on my radio:p I think that this is the reason why this radio is soo good especially making a comparison between others radios..what do u think about this?
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
Sure, I think that you are right. You really should try another radio, a new one, from the newer gingerbread leak for example. Or just jump to the unknown source radio, it performs best for me.
[Desire HD General] memnoc:
wait a minute:eek: I was wrong!!! this the ril I had before flash htc-ril 2.2.0131HM.....and this is the ril in the first post:RIL_12.35d.60.140f_26.08.03.07_M.........HTC-RIL 2.2.0131HM (Mar 18 2011,00:40:15)

as u can see, without changing anything I've had the ril from this radio!! So why???

and why when I flash the ril you suggest me it doesn't make any change?

edit: any flash that I try doesn't change the ril!! Why?
[Desire HD General] cocchiararo:
i noticed that too, the ril flashing packages seem broken or something.

here i have changed the update-binary to the one used on RCMixHD rom (i had to do that to the titaniumbackup zip for it to work too)

I think this is the ril you were instructed to use, if not, at least test if it changes :P

If it works, i will upload all the others (i modified them, just in case :P)

-----------------------

EDIT: this might be for naught (and you would end doing it by hand with root explorer like me :P), but here are all the ril packages from this thread, but with a different updater binary (i was lazy and didn't resing them, so if you enable signature checking in CWM, it will fail)

-------------

Edit3:

Folder link

http://www.megaupload.com/?f=G9MKJCSK

Besides the RIL zip packages, i added the RILinfo.apk, that i can't remember who made, but it was posted on XDA, and saves you from using the terminal command to know what ril you have.
[Desire HD General] memnoc:
goood:o Now it works and the ril is changed!!:D thanks mate:D

ps. surely @jkolijo will help u to resign all the ril's!!;-)
[Desire HD General] cocchiararo:
It was just a right click > sign

I have the utility for that in place, but since i had to do more file moving and cwm has signature checking off by default i didn't care
[Desire HD General] memnoc:
sure! No problems here! As u can said, signature is off by default so...that's ok:D thank u so much again:D
[Desire HD General] cocchiararo:
Your Welcome

And just in case, i uploaded those packages, but now signed :P

RIL packages now signed

(different folder, didn't remove the old ones)

And if for some reason someone still does not have the radios, and is planning to check different ones, i downloaded each radio from the radio thread that had the corresponding RIL here, packaged it for the instalation method that does not need ENG s-off (just radio s-off), and 7ziped it alongside the corresponding ril (same ones as the unsigned ones i posted earlier).

The folder also has the RILcheck app, a rudimentary readme (english/spanish) and a .txt with links to the 3 related threads (RIL thread, radio thread and flashing method thread)

Radios + RIL + Info + links
[Desire HD General] caanda45:
Confused sort of, so all the ril`s in the op right or wrong? Also the links in post #130 are they right and do we flash in cwm? Help this old boy out!!!
[Desire HD General] Patrics83:
This is what happen when ppl start to host mirrors and edited versions without letting the thread owner have the chance to change his own links. And those links are also counted. Ppl how makes mirrors or stuff like that should always ask first imo.
[Desire HD General] caanda45:
Okay I used this ril: RIL for 12.35d.60.140f_26.06.03.24_M2 - TELUS WWE 1.84.661.1 for that radio/ril combo.

Then I tried this ril: RIL for 12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M - HTC WWE 1.32.405.6

Then I checked the terminal emulator and both Ril`s were the same??? I have read some of the later posts and do not understand what is going on....please let me know what do to get get the right ril/radio combo.

Are the downloads in post #130 to be used in cwm? Still not getting this.....

Attached radio/ril`s different radio and the same ril, won`t this change??? Sorry for being so dense about this.
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
What's the issue with the current RILs in FP? For me they work just fine. I changed the update binary to the officially recommended one, just to be sure.. :/
[Desire HD General] memnoc:
The issue was about flashing the ril u suggest me (and thanks a lot mate;-)) the ril didn't change! So @cocchiararo has updated the ril with the correct code or wathever;-) now it works here...just to be clear I've tried the ril u suggest me and the other 1 ril from cingular and as I said before the new "update" they didn't work..
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
Hmm, his update zip seems very similar to mine. I do not think that the problem is in the zips in FP, but something else..
[Desire HD General] memnoc:
Really? So..maybe u can ask him and try to understand what has been changed..
[Desire HD General] cocchiararo:
Only change i made, was to replace the update-binary (file is besides the update-script) from the one used to the one the developer of RCmixHD uses.

I did this because i had a similar problem with the recovery zip that titanium backup makes for its app. Recovery reported no errors, but it would not copy the app.

Same thing happened to a pack i have for myself.

I use 7zip for packing this things, what do you use? I could not "edit" your zips with it, i had to extract them, and re-pack them.

If he problem was not on the binary, it might be on the zip tool.

RIL would not update for me either.
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
Try it now, as I said, my zips are now using a newer binary too. It is a strange issue you ran into :eek:

I am using powerarchiver, it can edit signed files.
[Desire HD General] eliashadow:
The latest unknown radio didnt change ril with your suggestion..:(
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
Well, which RIL did you have earlier?

Have you tried cocchiararo's zips?
[Desire HD General] cocchiararo:
Doing what? Have in mind tho, that the recomended ril for the unknown radio is the same as for another radio, and it is the ril that comes with RCMixHD
[Desire HD General] eliashadow:
Ι was tried from op 26.08.03.07_M RIL so now ill try this from your post...

Thanks mate...
[Desire HD General] cocchiararo:
What ROM are you using?

The recommended ril for the unknown is the same as for the one you mention, and the same that comes in the ROM I mentioned.
[Desire HD General] eliashadow:
Im using now the port from desire S and RCMix in the other phone...
[Desire HD General] cocchiararo:
What ril did you have before and after using the ril zip?
[Desire HD General] eliashadow:
Ill post it in a while cause now im restoring my phone...;)

edit.:I ll post the ril from S port cause the other phone isnt in my hands...
[Desire HD General] eliashadow:
So,i install HTC-RIL 2.2.0031HM_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M...

Before 2.2.0131HM(Mar18)-Now 2.2.0031HM(Sept28)

Its ok now cause im sooo confused???...:p
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
That's the way it should be. So it works just fine :D
[Desire HD General] jerrylzy:
Which ril matches Radio_12.48.60.23U_26.08.04.07_M3 better?
[Desire HD General] eliashadow:
Look my previous post mate...;)

U can download from

this

post...(megaupload.com)
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
See FAQ, it is there for a reason :)

Please link to first post, those zips work. I have a counter there, I want to keep track of downloads :)
[Desire HD General] jerrylzy:
I have used 12.35d.60.140f_26.08.03.07_M's ril for three weeks,but the 12.48.60.23U_26.08.04.07_M3 RADIO works worse than 12.35d.60.140f_26.08.03.07_M..And a lot of people says 12.48.60.23U_26.08.04.07_M3 works better..So I have to doubt whether i use the wrong rils..:(
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
There are no "correct" RILs for the unknown radio, so we have to use the closest possible. It makes sense that correct radio + RIL combination gives good results.
[Desire HD General] Locster126:
I doubt its because of the RIL's, some radios just dont "work" as good with certain networks,roms,locations,setups as others...
[Desire HD General] eliashadow:
Sorry for this mate...

But in op in FAQ says ''I am using Radio_12.48.60.23U_26.08.04.07_M3, which RIL should I use?

- Use the RIL for 12.35d.60.140f_26.08.03.07_M''

But i was used HTC-RIL12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M from cocchiararo's post and u said thats ok,thats why i post it...:(
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
Yeah it says so in the FAQ because that is the best substitute RIL.
[Desire HD General] Spyr0s:
Next CM7 nightly is going to use htc ril so i think that we will be able to use any ril file and radio from this thread.

ace: use 2.2 htc ril (android_device_htc_ace)

[Desire HD General] EazyVG:
RIL for Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2_test - HTC Ace Gingerbread S 2.36.405.5 ... when to expect so we can try the combo?

Thanks.
[Desire HD General] McKebapp:
26.09.04.11 comes with HTC-RIL 2.2.0131HM.

So no need to wait.
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
Yeah, I added a download link just to get rid of confusions :) So first post has been updated, have fun!
[Desire HD General] lordofcamster:
Short question:

This 2 are use the same RIL?

RIL for 12.35d.60.140f_26.08.03.07_M - HTC Ace Gingerbread S Generic 2.25.0.0

RIL for 12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2 - HTC Ace Gingerbread S 2.36.405.5
[Desire HD General] panart:
Yes.

[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
Yes, I will change the other one's filename when I get home, I am now on a vacation. Do not care about it, just flash :)

Just did this. Flashed the proper RIL for my radio and actually went from HSDPA to UMTS.

Now...Forgive my ignorance, but if I'm not mistaken, UMTS is actually a slower network than HSDPA is... And speedtest confirms this. Went from 2.2Mbps download to 1.3Mbps.. Not a huge loss, but a loss none the less.
