[Android Apps and Games] DeathCry:
Just reporting back that Cross Plasma is running good. Once after I plugged phone into computer, and one other time (not sure what I was doing, seemed normal) it stopped working - no movement of the wallpaper. That was before the update. Since update has been smooth. No noticeable lag, and the battery hasnt been getting killed (any more than normal).

I am on the HTC Thunderbolt.
[Optimus V Android Development] dubb83:
I have been seeing a few new Andriod users out there that are unfamiliar with the way things work (software wise). One annoying repetitive complaint is "I installed a custom rom and now my swype is gone!ZOMGWTF!"... Well DUH you formatted you phone and installed over anything that was originally your phone...

But fear not PC challenged newbs, there is a simple solution:

Sign up for Swype Beta at beta.swype.com and install that, this info is everywhere but one more place can't hurt...

(Yellow box, vibrate, and no output with Swype enabled.)

Well now here come the other typical complaints (and solutions),

"Now I have to select Swype as user input everytime I want to type or it doesn't work, pfft FAIL!!!"

(Solution 1: Do not install to Swype as an App2SD and be sure it resides on your phone like a good little app.

Solution 2: Using a root uninstall application (or manually) remove the gingerbread 2.3.3 keyboard (or other version that is not Swype).)

Re-install the gingerbread keyboard if you really want it and you are winning bigger than Charlie Sheen, the keyboard will now no longer trump the Swype and you can go about your merry way. EDIT: Some phones lose connection to the Swype library even if Swype is the only soft keyboard installed and is not on the SD card, in this case installing a second soft keyboard AFTER installing Swype will fix the issue.

"Now every reboot I have to re-select the Swype keyboard."

See Complaint #2

So basically if you want Swype with no issues, install it after ROM flash and then uninstall other keyboards using root.

Now people please quit *****ing about Swype not being inlcuded in your "favorite" ROM and take some initiative and fix it yourself.

And for those that say ... Ha ha ha, should have used Titanium Backup, you are dead WRONG and have never used Titanium Backup to restore a factory installed Swype... It won't work no matter how hard you rub Buddah's belly.

EDIT: Posted this info to keep the threads a bit more cleaner from all the non-ROM related issues people post... I'm so sorry that your phone cannot microwave my pizza while bluetoothing with a custom ROM.:D Hopefully someone else feels my sarcasm.
[Optimus V Android Development] DustbinK:
The important thing I've noticed is to just make sure the keyboard is installed onto the phone. You shouldn't have any problems with it disappearing after a reboot if it's on your phone instead of the SD. This will make it so you don't have to bother with the hassle of removing the stock keyboard.
[Optimus V Android Development] i shot jfk:
these methods should help but i believe swype on this phone is garbage (i have big fingers), but it is helpfull my wife enjoys the swype keyboard and this helps me when i go to root her phone.
[Optimus V Android Development] dubb83:
Glad to help. Hope I didn't come off too sarcastic and some people got a laugh. Also to explain why it cannot be on a ROM, it is licensed software not available under the GNU.
[Optimus V Android Development] mmarz:
Use the SlideIt keyboard. It is much easier to use. You an go from tap to slide mid word and a bunch of other intuitive moves. Plus, it doesn't have the voice command button for you to accidentally hit.
[Optimus V Android Development] defcon545:
I have signed up for the swype beta before and im not sure if i had it on sd or not, but when i tried typing a yellow box would come around the swype keyboard and i had to select the stock keyboard and then select the swype keyboard again for it to work right, will having it on the phone fix that? :confused:
[Optimus V Android Development] dubb83:
Uninstall stock keyboard, then reinstall keyboard. Goofy I know but it works. Should be on the OP. There seems to be a bug in the software when reconnecting to the library if it is not the only or first installed soft keyboard. I had to do this as well and have not had a problem since.
[Optimus V Android Development] primetechv2:
inb4 "Why doesn't Swype swipe?"

Swype often doesn't swipe after you reboot your phone. The easiest way to fix that is switch your Input Method away from Swype (e.g. to the stock keyboard) then back to Swype.
[Optimus V Android Development] dubb83:
If you follow my OP Swype will always work.
[Optimus V Android Development] ariel_jesus237:
I uninstalled the main gingerbread keyboard and left swype as my only one and still get the no swyping error often. I had to download a kb from the market just to reinstall swype and see if it will behave now.
[Optimus V Android Development] dubb83:
My Swype only works when it was installed stock kb removed and a new kb from the market was installed in that order, other ov might not require a kb installed. One of my ov phones doesn't.
[Optimus V Android Development] havikx:
theres probably an easier way. check the g2 forums. i think there is an app called swyperestore or soemthing along those lines. basically it imports your swype with your swype license to your new rom from a nandroid.

although...not sure if it would work on the v....
[Optimus V Android Development] erickr56:
Anyone tried what I do on the g2? I'll try today, moving the lib file swype has and installing swype along with it makes it work on my g2.
[Optimus V Android Development] smokenbiskits:
My current fix is I used titanium backup to freeze and delete the android keyboard.when I reset the phone if swype still isn't working I freeze and unfreeze swype in titanium and it's worked every time.I'm working on changing how android associates with the keyboard to see if it's maybe still trying to use droid keys
[Optimus V Android Development] jerenater10:
installed swype beta. worked. rebooted blue box error. used a root uninstaller app to uninstall android keyboard. rebooted and it worked :D
[Optimus V Android Development] dubb83:
Congrats, glad the how-to helped. Would be rough typing on this tiny keyboard without Swype or other similar program.
[Optimus V Android Development] ariel_jesus237:
Anybody find themselves pressing the . instead of the space far too often? It gets kind of annoying, at least in portrait view. Also, "at" being constantly mistaken for "arty" seems kind of ridiculous. Despite that, I love swype, and this is coming from a physical qwerty junkie!
[Optimus V Android Development] frankenstein897:
Awesome, thank you. No issues with your OP.
[Optimus V Android Development] GolfnWrx:
How do you remove the GB KB?

My swype beta didn't work, so I junked it. Now after reading this, my only question is what app or how do I remove the Gingerbread keyboard? (I don't see it as an app, is there an app that will remove it?)

Thx.
[Optimus V Android Development] dubb83:
Use titanium backup.
[Optimus V Android Development] Butterxbean:
Thank you!
[Optimus V Android Development] capnron65:
Thanks dubb83

Total Noob here and one of those guys that asked/complained about losing Swype when installing my first custom ROM. SORRY!:o

Thanks for your patience, sense of humor, and for taking the time to help.

RIL files for Desire HD Radios​

About

:

RIL is a library that acts as a bridge between your device's phone functions and the radio firmware in your device's communications chip (radio). Matching radio and RIL is always a good combination when you think of signal stability and battery consumption. That is why you should flash a matching RIL when you flash a new radio. Only for Sense based ROMs (not for CM or MIUI). You DO NOT need to flash a RIL if you use a recommended radio for a ROM. You need to flash RIL again if you flash another ROM.

How to flash

:

Flash in ClockworkMod like a ROM, but do not wipe anything. You have to flash the RIL again if you flash a new ROM some day.

FAQ

:

Q: I have fU or fP in my radio, can I still use a RIL without that letter?

- Yes, no problem.

Q: 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

Q: Is it necessary to flash RIL again when I flash a new ROM?

- Yes, because ROM replaces the RIL you flashed separately.

Q: My ROM developer recommends a certain radio. Why?

- The ROM has a RIL for the recommended radio in it, you can change it by flashing one of the packages in first post.

[Desire HD General] Xtiro:
How dangerous is this in terms of bricking your device?

I mean, I'll do it anyway, but I'm just curious :p
[Desire HD General] djamorpheus:
It isn't dangerous, the files reside in the rom data in /system/ which brings me to my question, do you have to mount /system with these? I know you had to with the zips from the desire forum
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
Zero percent :) The package handles mount and unmount itself.
[Desire HD General] djamorpheus:
cool thanks for that!
[Desire HD General] CamoGeko:
Make sure you flash radio first, then when flashing RIL also mount /system in recovery prior to selecting the zip.

;)
[Desire HD General] Mr_JMM:
That did it, many thanks.
[Desire HD General] CamoGeko:
You're welcome mate, click thanks when you got time ;)
[Desire HD General] cocchiararo:
why do you need to manually mount it ? all the ril packages i have seen mount the system partition in the script.

the ones originally posted here never worked for me tho, but after repacking them with a different binary they did
[Desire HD General] CamoGeko:
They all work, but have been packaged in such a way that you have to mount /system in recovery before flashing the zip.

;)

By the way I use RIL's from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=902752
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
Cocchiararo have you tried them lately?
[Desire HD General] stuart0001:
I just tried to download "RIL for 12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2" but the link downloads "RIL_12.35d.60.140f_26.08.03.07_M" :confused:
[Desire HD General] CamoGeko:
I believe those two radios use the same RIL files ;)
[Desire HD General] stuart0001:

no, i haven't, but i said "originally" cause you said you had modified them :P

i will try some soon tho, im on the latest radio on 131hm ril, but i want to try the old recomended radio, and that will work as a test :P

once again, WHY ? :/

i mean, you can mount the partition on the script, it works, its less steps..

finally, is there any reason for you to come to this thread, and tell people to go to some other thread ? :P
[Desire HD General] CamoGeko:
It's not difficult to mount /system , it just wasn't implemented in the script...that is all lol :p

I'm not telling you to go to the other thread, in fact to be honest I think 2 of them should be combined into 1 anyway. Makes it less confusing for others...
[Desire HD General] danalive:
ha, good ol' mount /system! (no idea). thanks man.
[Desire HD General] CamoGeko:

Btw, why does your sig say RIL 2.2.1001G, shouldn't it be 2.2.1003G?

For future reference, you can just search a thread for what you are looking for.

I searched for 2.2.1003 and straight away, two posts found with the link.

Does the search function not work for you? Suggest you raise the issue with forum admin if so.
[Desire HD General] digao100nocao:
Could someone extract the RIL of the new 2.36.405.8 and compare (MD5) it with the one in 2.36.405.5??

Both radios in 2.36.405.5 and 2.36.405.8 have the same MD5 and SHA1.. So they are exactly the same radio, right??

Thanks!!

The Inspire 4G update patches only libhtc_ril.so, the other 2 files remain the same as they were on HTC-RIL 2.2.0077HM

For me it's a little weaker reception than the previous one I used (nothing dealbraking, just wiese internetspeed). But batteri seems to last longer...But I flashed from Froyo 1.84 to GB 2.36 so that may be part of the reason...even so, now running stock kernel, while I used buzz oc/uv with setcpu.

WiFi, bluetooth, GPS are all good.

i was asked in the HTC inspire update thread to tell you about the new HTC Inspire Radio and Ril

Im not sure what radio thread you have, but i know this RIL thread :P

The RIL that matched the Original Inspire 4G radio was HTC-RIL 2.2.0077HM, the update patches just 1 of the 3 .so files, and after the patch its recognized as HTC-RIL 2.2.0079HM.

In my sig you can get the 12.39a.60.19U_26.06.06.30_M radio + ril pack (its actually the 77HM pack with the updated .so, not the "original" 077HM ril pack), in case you want to get it and add it to your list/s
[Desire HD General] dusdus:
Please help me out here, I can't find the right combination of RIL and Radio.

As I'm having some 3G-connection problems. I guess I need to test some.

12.28e.60.140fP_26.04.02.17_M2

Do those 2 even belong to eachother? I got this phone from a friend, so I don't know what he did with it :)

Should I change the Radio and/or RIL?
[Desire HD General] CamoGeko:
This thread should help you find the best combination ;)

[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
Hmh, that is not a very good "solution" to his problem. That thread is, or will be, a total mess of unimportant posts.

You should check first page, and just download right RIL for your radio.
[Desire HD General] CamoGeko:
That thread has been very helpful to a lot of people already. Biggest advantage is it has suggestions of what are the best ril+radio combinations to use with roms.
[Desire HD General] CamoGeko:
To be honest mate, I would advise you to change/update your Radio & your RIL as well.

What ROM are you using at the moment? CM7?
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
..which is totally useless, because when you talk about Sense ROMs, the RIL and radio go hand in hand, but the ROM does not matter. What ppl are discussing, is signal and battery drain. That can be derived to radio and RIL. Then as correct RIL for radio is always best combination, there is only one variable left, the radio.

There is already a thread for radios, so that thread is, as I said, pretty much totally useless. Let's leave the decision whether to lock or not to the Mods. My two cents ends here, let's go back to topic again.
[Desire HD General] CamoGeko:
Obviously you don't completely understand to purpose of it, so lets leave it there.

What it does is let people report on their findings about best ROM/Kernel/Radio/RIL combinations. What works perfectly for them to put it simply, so others can take advantage of the information as well and ask questions if they need to. It was started yesterday and already is on 3 pages, so I guess that proves my point nice and clear.

Simple as that.

flashed radio "Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2_test" followed by RIL "12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2" and i lost my data connection after reboot

flashed back RIL "Radio_12.35d.60.140fU_26.08.03.07_M_Test" and after reboot data connection works fine again

any ideas why? i thought flashing a matching RIL will work best with its Radio?

I need ure help mate:o I don't know why but when I call someone or someone call I hear a very annoyng echo from speaker...my radio is the latest 26.09.04.11_M2 with .HTC-RIL 2.2.0131HM (Mar 18 2011,00:40:15)...I've tried to flash 26.08..radio and have the same problem!! so I think is not related to radio...so ure more expert, it coul be a network issue? I'm on vodafone...what do u think??

thanks:D
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
Most likely ROM or kernel issue. At least the MDJ kernel has such issues..
[Desire HD General] memnoc:
I've tried with m-deejay and leedroid kernel and I have this issue..so I've tried with stock kernel and I have the issue again! I don't think it could be an hardware issue..so probably is the rom (I'm on m-deejay v.2 now)..I'll try to restore backup of rcmix 6.1.0.1...if doesn't work I'll flash rcmix 5.9.1. that brings a different base...thanks 4 now mate:D
[Desire HD General] specialist83:
Capy's RCMixHD. Once I flash back the old RIL data connection works immediately so I believe there must be some difference between the old n new RIL.
[Desire HD General] cocchiararo:
did you try a battery pull ?

i know a guy who fixed it by doing that (he had that issue on the stock rooted inspire rom)

Thanks, is there a way to change only the RIL - so i must flash the kernel again too...
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
Well get the matching ril files from the rom zip file. That should do the trick :)

And for noobs (:)) they are ? Thanks again jkoljo :)

But my problem could be RIL-related or ?
