http://www.4shared.com/zip/z7dsYTif/modem.html

I dumped my modem_st1 and modem_st2 (tmousa)

modem_st1 mmcblk0p25

modem_st2 mmcblk0p26

I just tested and you can flash these with fastboot.

fastboot flash modem_st1 modem_st1.img

fastboot flash modem_st2 modem_st2.img

Of course make a backup of your originals before flashing.

850 1900 2100 or 900 1700 2100 MHz

These modem files are for 900/1700/2100. Could someone with a 850/1900/2100 Sensation extract their modem partitions?
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Maybe fastboot, or dd from the terminal would definitely work.
[HTC Sensation] Spr33y:
It's just 850/1900. I wouldn't mind doing it if you can tell me how
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
I believe from the terminal emulator app, you can run

su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p25 of=/sdcard/modem_st1.img
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p26 of=/sdcard/modem_st2.img

Then copy the modem_st1.img and modem_st2.img files from your SD card to somewhere we could download them, such as Dropbox. If you don't have a dropbox account, please click here to create one.

Then please post the link back here.

Actually they are. I was getting among 10mpbs down and 3 up on TMOUS around Chicagoland area (usually later during the day and at night). I was on InsertCoin 2.2.2 wit the radio recommended in the thread. Now, something happened and my battery drains like crazy and my internet speeds dropped drastically.
[HTC Sensation] slick007:
I'm tring to put HTC-RIL 2.2.0162HMQ on Coredoird which has HTC-RIL 2.2.0169HMQ.

in CWM said flash complete, but after restart I when I check the ril version, it the same as before 0169.

I downloaded and installed twice the package but with no result.

any hints ? !! ?
[HTC Sensation] fr0st.exe:
I believe you have to mount /system first in cwm then install.
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Correct. If you don't mount ril doesn't get flashed.

Just to clarify for some previous confused posters. Rils come with ROM and get flashed every time you flash ROM, radio only gets flashed if you do it yourself(adb or zip), via ruu or via ota.

Hello, Im using 2.3.5 ROM for sensation with HTC-RIL 2.2.0173HMQ

Anybody know the corresponding Radio for RIL ver above?... I searched in the Radio sensation thread but not found yet :)

thanks

[HTC Sensation] seal_team_six:
Here it is... I submitted repackage HTC-RIL 2.2.0173HMQ.zip, hope glitzbd doesn't mind... :)

mount /system first in cwm then install.

please use it at your own risk :D

still dunno proper radio for this RIL or may be it still using the same radio versions 10.14.9035.01 ?

Hey guys question for you. Since the newest TMOUS radio (9035) runs like crap here in Utah I'm going to go back to an earlier version. At one time I was running the 9007.19 radio and was running really good, but I now realize that I'm not sure what ril I used. Does anyone by chance know which one in the op I sould use or do you by chance have one for this radio. Thanks in advance for any help.
[HTC Sensation] smint86:
nobody got a link for HTC-RIL 2.2.0173HMQ yet?

[HTC Sensation] smint86:
flashed HTC-RIL 2.2.0173HMQ.zip via cwm. it writes something like "installing HTC-RIL 2.2.0173HMQ... build by glitzbd", it's definetly the correct .zip.

wiped cache, dalvic cache, fixed permissions (just to be 100% sure).

started terminal emulator, typed 'getprop "gsm.version.ril-impl"... unfortunately output is: "HTC-RIL 2.2.0169HMQ (Jul 8 2011, 14:36:49)"
[HTC Sensation] smint86:
nobody has the same problem? :confused:
[HTC Sensation] gleemer:
Are you mounting system before flashing?
[HTC Sensation] smint86:
as i'm not abled to read the op... of course not... feeling little bit ashamed now, thanks anyway.

[HTC Sensation] ziddey:
Thanks for the upload. I gave it a try but didn't get anywhere with my TMO SIM. Got errors here and there for some reason, but GSM worked. Couldn't find TMO UMTS, but seemingly couldn't find ATT either. Tried an old Cingular SIM but it's long been deactivated, and seems to just sit at Emergency Only no matter what.

Maybe someone with an ATT SIM could give it a test if they ever need to.

no GSM network

hello guys,i have t mobile sensation which is sim unlocked ,S-OFF,SuperCID ,having ics custom roms with the firmware 3.32 all these days,running both sense 3.6 and 4 roms.than upgraded firmware to 3.33 and no problm all these days but suddenly from yesterday im having no signal at home wereas good signal strength elsewhere.(by the by im using gsm network)i always used to keep network mode to gsm/wcdma.i came to know that wcdma has weak signal at home,hence asked me to put to gsm only mode at home by one of operator guy,so i tried to select gsm only mode but by that im not getting any signal anywhere.and with gsm/wcdma mode very weak or no signal at home.i tried to put my sim to other device where it works fine,changed roms,downgraded firmware/radio with no result plz plz help.im desperate

the problm is with sim??or

firmware/rom??or

hardware/anntena defect??

plz guide me
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Hmm, I guess it could be a SIM issue. I had to get mine replaced not too long ago when I could not get a signal after flashing a new ROM and radio. Fortunately the local TMO store gave it to me for free and even copied my contacts to the new SIM which they said was a later model.

You might check the little gold fingers on the phone to make sure they are making good contacts with the case. Clean with alcohol swab and bend out VERY GENTLY if necessary.

Reflashing radio and or firmware can resolve these issues sometimes. After flashing power off and pull the battery for a few seconds.
[HTC Sensation] vasujahagirdar:
thanks for quick replay,i tried with other sim but the results same .though with otheroperators sim works fine..

regarding i tries cleaning just with cotton ,no effect,but i try as u said
[HTC Sensation] Steve0007:
Go to your dialer, press *#*#4636#*#* (don't press, wait 2 seconds)

Phone Information, go down select prefered network, try GSM Auto (PRL) wait few seconds, try also WCDMA preferred if GSM doesn't work.
[HTC Sensation] wend0:
I have cm9 nightly and i want To change radio but i am confused. In the first post i have read instructions to flash radio from the PC. Can i flash radio directly from the phone? What steps i have to do?

Inviato dal mio HTC Sensation con Tapatalk 2
[HTC Sensation] emanon:
Download the radio you want to try and put it in your sdcard and reboot to bootloader. When finish with updating radio then remove the PG58IMG file from sdcard and then reboot to recovery and then do wipe cash and delvik cash and fix permissions and reboot.

\Regards,
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
The fix permissions should not be needed. :)
[HTC Sensation] vasujahagirdar:
yes i tried, GSM Auto(PRL),AND WCDMA preffered,cleaned the antenna with alcohol but no effect.when i use other network sims and selecting GSM only full network comes,and also gsm/wcdma mode.another thing i noticed with gsm/wcdma mode at outside area after i make call the signal dropped to 0,so i have to search the operator again everytime to get signal.????.

my question is this type of problm is due to hardware issue,2.firmware/radio issue,3.rom related.4.SIM related??

if i go back to stock rom will it get solved??
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
It could be. But leave that one until all other possibilities have been excluded.

It could be. I did mention reflashing. After I do a firmware and/or radio flash, I power down and pull the battery for a few seconds then boot back up.

It could be. The ROM's generally include the RIL files. Replacing a RIL is like replacing a driver in Windows - with similar potential effects.

It could be. I did mention getting it replaced.

If it is 1,2, or 4 then probably not.

Are you running the stock kernel or a custom kernel? You might try the stock kernel.
[HTC Sensation] walkinhotdog:
just wanted to report that the newest radio actly improved my signal a bit on at&t. all of the old ones had no effect. not sure about data speed tho since i dont have a data plan. thanks for the files mf2112
[HTC Sensation] Nekromantik:
anyone in the UK on orange experiencing the old caller hears echos on the latest radio in firmware 3.33?
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
I haven't seen anyone post that so far. If you flashed one of the TMO rcdata.img, or DisH, files with the firmware then I guess strange effects could occur. I just looked and there is a Orange_UK RUU file on football's file share. You might try downloading it and packaging up the rcdata.img file there according to the instructions in the third post.
[HTC Sensation] Mesaman2012:
Are the radios,ril and firmware usually already in the pg58img.zip so all you need to do is download and install them through recovery.
[HTC Sensation] Nekromantik:
thanks.

doubt its that as i flashed the italy 3.33 firmware package.
[HTC Sensation] blackchad:
i try to avoid commands and using my computer for anything regarding my phones because it never ever just works. cant flash radio according to first method on first post. just constantly get error:device not found. please help. wont boot to bootloader through command prompt because device is not found and if i reboot manually to bootloader it still says device not found.
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Radios and firmware packages are in the PG58IMG.zip format for bootloader flashing. RILs are packages for recovery flashing. I am not aware of any way to flash a radio through recovery, or to flash a RIL through bootloader.

Probably not then, hmmm. Can't really think of anything else related now, sorry. Hopefully someone else from Italy will answer your original question then.

Just copy the PG58IMG.zip file for whichever radio you want to try to the root of your SD card. I usually use QuickBoot to choose my boot method, free and much easier than trying to boot and hold the volume button at the right time or take the battery out.
[HTC Sensation] vasujahagirdar:
hi, i tried with stock kernel, no change.

my friend is working for my network provider(bsnl india)so he tried to trace the signal from my sim ,what he is noticed that there is no authorization request from my device at all,when i select gsm mode.so what he says that somehow gsm preferred option is blocked or deleted from my device for my network so authorization request is not sent where as sim of other network getting it.what is ur opinion about it??

as this is weekend i am not able to change my sim,im doing it tommorrow.but im not hopefull of that because other sims of same network at my home have same results.the whole problm is the device is not able to switchover between 2g &3g.
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Well, you are very lucky to have a helpful friend in a position like that. So you have tried other Sims from the same company in your phone and they did not work? In that case, I would have to go with reflashing firmware with radio, search for Kohr-Ah's friendly firmware thread, try re-flashing that once or twice. I have seen reports from people and had it myself once where the firmware flash didn't seem to work correctly the first time even though everything said OK and appeared successful.

If that doesn't work, I would consider flashing a locked bootloader followed by a stock RUU. This is to get back to stock in preparation for a hardware return if it doesn't resolve the problem. That process is detailed in a number of threads as well.
[HTC Sensation] marcjw:
Radios and firmware are bundled in seperate pg58img.zip files and are flashed through the bootloader. RILs are flashed through recovery.
[HTC Sensation] vasujahagirdar:
well thanks ,just 2hrs back what i did was put other sim with same network,set network manually to other network ,than again to my network,than removed that sim and put my sim, set to gsm only .viola!!! it worked.now getting good signal strength all over my home.it happened only once today morning in the same way but didnt happened thereafter.by the by using baads evolution sense4 2.0 version rom,

any reasoning ??and now i hasitate to switch to gsm/wcdma mode,fearing whether the gsm signal again will be lost.if i have to try doing all over again.having only gsm means i cannot have speed of wcdma network,have to satisfy with gprs/edge
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Really, very interesting. I am wondering if it could be related to the fact of that ROM being a port from the Ville which is a different model phone. You might try either RIL 4.0.0035 or 4.0.0036 as those came from Ville ports.
[HTC Sensation] vasujahagirdar:
no i dont think it is related to ville port because it happened with insertcoin 5.5 sense3.6 and steves t mobiles latest rooted stock ics sense 3.6 rom aswel.i tried with both 3.32&3.33 firmware.i cannot explain this think because im not a software man,am an ent surgeon with little knowledge about software/android though i used to cook my own windows roms earlier.
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Well, that would shoot down that theory. Very strange. I am not sure how to fairly counsel you then as I can't say the same problem won't happen if you change it back to wcdma.

I can say that I personally never leave it on gsm/wcdma auto, but that is due to the fact that I get poor wcdma signal inside buildings and the phone will switch back and forth between gsm and wcdma and suck my battery dry. So I leave on gsm only and use wifi when I am inside, or if I am outside and I know I am going to use the mobile data connection I will switch to wcdma only.

@mf2112:

A big, big Thank You that you ever started this thread.

I dev my own things but i have to read your 1st three post to come out of an WiFi and RIL issue. Thanks again for your work. That is what i name community...
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
You are very welcome, I am glad it was helpful. :D

[HTC Sensation] vasujahagirdar:
problem solved!!!

hi mf2112,very silly thing solved my problem.!!!.as im using viperS rom it has tweaks ,in that phone info tab,in menu i saw select radio band,which i didnt see all these days,i accidentally tapped menu and saw that set radio band,in which i selected automatic mode,viola!! im able to get full gsm and automatic gsm/wcdma network all over my home.so that solved my issue .

thanks for all your replys.

now my question is that the device has to set the network automatically rather than one has to set it.all roms will not have this phone info tweak,where the tweaks option not present ,as in stock roms,it has to select automatically rt??but when i install rooted stock rom that didnt happen.any reasoning??after solving the issue i flashed another rom baads evolution 2.2, the network was set itself right,so is there any memory like thing in radio/firmware??
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Great news, thanks for replying with that! I guess some ROMs go deeper into the configuration options to set things during the initial load than other ROMS.

You can still access that menu through the diagnostics menu I believe. Just dial *#*#4636#*#* and wait a second. It should go to the diag menu and you will see a Phone Info button there to tap. Under that is some more options, including a drop-down menu for Preferred Network Type.
[HTC Sensation] vasujahagirdar:
Yes,I came to know about that code for phone info.anyway thank you once again for the response.
[HTC Sensation] Caelen:
Hi,

I was wondering how can I match the Radio with the Irl for the ics radio?

Actually I have a problem with my phone, I have the data but the phone said that I have limited services, so I can"t call or text

Thank you buy advance
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
From what I can tell so far, the radio and RIL do not have to be "matched" as they did with the Gingerbread ROMs.

If you get no signal at all, first try putting the cover back on. Second, dial *#*#4636#*#* and wait a second. It should go to the diag menu and you will see a Phone Info button there to tap. Under that is some more options, including a drop-down menu for Preferred Network Type. You may be on the wrong network type. For TMO, I would make I was on one of the WCDMA or GSM choices. Make sure you aren't set to EVDO or something that won't work.

Another possible fix for poor data speeds is to call t-mobile (or whichever carrier you are using) and see if they have your phone in their database, and make sure on their database it shows that you have a sensation and they have the right data package going for you. Also make sure your SIM card isn't old, which any t-mobile store will exchange as far as I can tell for free. When I went to the TMO store in the mall having connection issues, they replaced my SIM with the "latest model" from what the guy said and even copied my contacts for free.
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
mf2112 what speeds are you averaging? I still only hit 3Mb/s in Chicago (which is awful) but I have a newer SIM and my-tmobile site shows me as a sensation in the system.

[I am trying to jack it up to where it should be :P]
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Unfortunately my house is closer to Henderson than Vegas proper, so I probably average about 3-3.5mb down/1mb up there. When I am closer to the LV Strip area, I probably average about 7mb down/1.5-2mb up. I am running 11.76A radio, 4.0.0037RIL, and the TMO DisH3 file right now.
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Ahh ok (mom lives in North Las Vegas)

Lemme try RIL .37 and changing to DISH 3

(PS I owe you a thanks. Still on 8 a day thanks to that 1 time I OD'd.. esh)
[HTC Sensation] Caelen:
Thank you for your answer,

In fact I have tha data but I can call or text. I's wrote : limited service

The network is on WDCMA preferred

I really don't know how to solve this
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Do you have a data connection that appears to be connecting properly but then the texting service does not work across the data connection? Do other services such as Internet browsing work? Are you not able to make or accept any phone calls?
[HTC Sensation] Caelen:
The data connection work properly : Browser Ok, I receive my mail, no issue about that

But I can't text, call. and I can't receive a call or a text message

This appear after i tried to put a ROM for galaxy S2 on my HTC sensation XE....
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Hmmm, this is the first time I have ever heard of such a thing being tried. I am surprised it worked at all, all of the packages I am used to seeing have the modelid of the Sensations in there so you would not be able to flash it on another model phone because it would immediately fail out stating that it was for a different model.

As far as how to fix it.....you might be able to use the 'fastboot erase radio' command, then reflash a Sensation radio. If that doesn't work, then I guess I would be inclined to flash one of the newer locked bootloaders such as 1.27.0000 and then an appropriate RUU to return to stock to see if that would fix it, because if it doesn't fix it I think the next step might be to return it to the factory to be repaired. There are several guides on how to do that process. Don't forget to write the secureflag at the end if you have to do this.
[HTC Sensation] Caelen:
I already put the new RUU and the problem still not fix.

Can it come from a Dish File corrupt ?

I put a lot of different radio (all the one one the first post) but none of them worked

So, for you the only solution is a repair center?
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
I am very sorry to say it, but I am running out of suggestions for you to try if you have already tried the other things from post 3 or the last things I posted. I do not believe that this would result from the DisH file being corrupt and you could just flash a different one to overwrite it anyways.

When you flash a radio using the 'fastboot flash radio radio.img' command, does it write successfully? Or are you flashing the radios using the PG58IMG.zip files? If it writes successfully, then it might be worth continuing to try to troubleshoot the problem. If it doesn't write successfully then best to send it off right away. Did you try the fastboot erase radio command and did it work?
[HTC Sensation] Caelen:
No I didn't tri a fastboot erase radio yet, I will do it

the command 'fastboot flash radio radio.img' work perfectly. I flashing radio using this

I test erase radio and I told you if it is ok or not

---------- Post added at 02:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:21 PM ----------

So I have done the erase radio and put a new radio, but the problem still here
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Hmmm....have you checked into replacing your SIM? I got mine replaced for free when I had connectivity problems a couple months ago, the TMO store guy even copied my contacts to the new SIM for me. Take the SIM out and look at it, if there is any discoloration on the side with the gold contacts pads then it may be bad. Even if you don't see any color differences, it still may have gone bad. The TMO guy told me that it wasn't uncommon for them to go bad so it wasn't a big deal to replace. It took about an hour or so for their system to update after I left the store.
[HTC Sensation] Caelen:
I check with two different sim and network

Moreover it's happen after I flashed the phone so i think it is link
