Does the md5sum must match all letters and numbers to ensure safe file?

---------- Post added at 02:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:16 PM ----------

does my location will affect the performance of this new radio in terms of network signal?

---------- Post added at 02:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:44 PM ----------

i have chech the md5sum of the file i downloaded and it is exactly as this md5 sum above... is that mean that i got a good download and can flash the radio now?
[HTC Desire S] sagarda7:
Ya you can flash. I have flashed today without any errors. It is working great.

Copied following steps from aother thread(Sorry for that)

1. Download your Radio zip package.

2. Copy your Radio zip package to your SDcard root directory and rename it to PG88IMG.zip.

3. Turn off your phone and turn it back on by pressing volume down and power button together (You need to turn off fastboot under phone settings > power options).

4. Once you're in hboot, the bootloader will ask you if you want to install radio.img, just press yes. (Volume up means "YES", and volume down means "NO")

5. Once the radio flashing is complete press your power button once to reboot device. Done!

will this radio worked if im from philippines? will i encounter location problems?
[HTC Desire S] ngek202:
I didn't tried RIL yet still using the one that came along VU 2.37, still reading this Thread if it's really that necessary to Use it.
[HTC Desire S] sagarda7:
I am also from Nepal. Here it works. And there too. I can't say about north American band.
[HTC Desire S] yerfdes:
Already flashes the radio and all i can say is awesome...
[HTC Desire S] mzr9mm:
I had problem with my Desire S with signal loss. People would call me and it would go straight to voice mail or I would get texts 25-30 minutes after they were sent.

Hope this radio will fix the issue.

I read trough the entire thread and I went ahead and flashed it.

Will report back for changes in signal strength and/or battery life.

[HTC Desire S] ffodi:
Hi!

Can I flash this radio with old hboot?
[HTC Desire S] uoosuow:
Yes, works fine for me.
[HTC Desire S] ffodi:
Thanks, flashed succesfully.:)
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
I am running CM7.1 RC 1.0.5

Q1: as a non Sense ROM do I need the RIL or not

Q2: since I have the file /system/lib/libhtc_ril.so present on my system how can I check is it updated for the new Radio?
[HTC Desire S] bail.de:
my light- and proximitysensor isn't working and i think it's since i flashed this new radio...

could it be?

to test it out, can i reflash it without problems? or should i downgrade?
[HTC Desire S] Igl0:
You can reflash it without downgrading.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Installed the new radio yesterday!

Definitely an improvement phone signal! I'm my room before, I was only getting 2g, but now with this radio I'm getting 1-3 bars of 3g at least! It's great!

Haven't tested gps yet, as I haven't been out of the house, but will do tomorrow!

Anyone have any comments on battery life performance with this radio?

Does it help increase battery life?
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
I received an answer kindly provided by Nexx:
[HTC Desire S] scrack26:
i did update my radio and it scare me so much... all update went well, but when i reboot... i am stuck with HTC logo with white BG... - what i did was remove battery. rename the PG88IMG.zip to something else... then go to recovery and clear cache and dalvik. and it rebooted just fine..
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Fingers crossed

First boot after wipe of cache(s) can sometimes take 5-10 minutes?

Exactly what did you flash? were all the on screen status messages positive?
[HTC Desire S] Sib64:
Try an another download (look => radio link on my sig ;) )

and re-flash.

download the zip file

copy it to root of your devices SD card

rename the file to PG88IMG, not PG88IMG.zip, cos it's a zip file already. Rename it with your file explorer

Re-start you phone in bootloader (volume down and power on) hboot not fastboot)

the bootloader will ask you if you want to install radio.img

confirm, by Vol up

reboot

rename the file again (for exemple PG88IMG_new radio) on your SD after first boot.;)

A another question what's your rom ? Cos if you're on CM7, you must read this:

Post by @amidabuddha

I think it's answer at your question
[HTC Desire S] kylon:
Is this the updated radio? V2 by proxuser
[HTC Desire S] scrack26:
Flashed the radio all good and press power to reboot but stuck on the HTC Boot. Its longer than 10mins. That's why i was scared. Removed battery then recovery. I just clear cache and dalvik and booted just fine. Do u think i need to reflash?
[HTC Desire S] Sib64:
Have you checked that the radio properly installed ?

If it's not, try a another time.
[HTC Desire S] scrack26:
it is properly installed. on Settings > about phone. it displays 20.44.30.0821U_3821.08.00.24_M. but didn't notice any difference at all...

by the way i just updated the radio, thanks for letting me know not to update the RIL.
[HTC Desire S] thedude2004:
Anyone else experiencing increased battery drain with this radio?

It seems to jump from 100 to ~80% very quickly,
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
NO PROBLEMS here :)

Are you sure it us the radio draining battery for you?
[HTC Desire S] thedude2004:
To be honest no, but I can't think what else it could be, my usage has not changed and the phone does seem to use more juice when the screen on, (though less when its off).

Only other thing I can think is it might be an app using the wifi more I'll give that a test.
[HTC Desire S] Sib64:
I think it's not the radio who's guilty, but an app.

Use a taskiller, and look yours latest apps who's installed.

I've got this radio since it's release, and turn well, and no drain ;)
[HTC Desire S] ngek202:
can you Revert back to an Old Radio?
[HTC Desire S] Sib64:
Yes, You Can ;)
[HTC Desire S] ngek202:
thanks man, maybe I should try this as MIUI is giving me low signal reception I hope this will help.
[HTC Desire S] Sib64:
In case for revert back:

The guide are so simple:

you'll have to use fastboot command but not the PG88IMG flash

Use a simple command : fastboot flash radio your_radio_file.img
[HTC Desire S] ngek202:
So you mean I need to extract the zip file correct?
[HTC Desire S] Sib64:
You need to extract the file who's named: radio.img, from the zip file.
[HTC Desire S] ngek202:
do i need to put the file radio.img into the same folder where adb is? or on the sd card?

can you give me step by step how to do this if you don't mind :D
[HTC Desire S] Sib64:
On Sd card
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
There is a newer offiical radio thats been released along with the official Sense ota http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1283949

you may want to flash this instead.

See my sig for version.
[HTC Desire S] Sib64:
Ben?

Newer newer, waouh, really faster for build new radio, since the latest (mid september) but it's an official this.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
It came out with the latest Sense 3.0 OTA updates so is completely Alpha software and official (not leaked or test!)

I don't quite understand the numbering conventions used in the naming of the radios....but, I've chosen to go with the official had it on since last night without any problems!

I've still got the slightly older leaked radio saved on my SD still just in case I discover a problem with this latest, so that I can switch.

Hi - I had a similar problem. I checked the SMSC - SMS center number and entered it manually (this can be done in the Stock SMS application only). It started working. I had to do it a couple of times as rebooting the phone removed this for some reason. I was using GO SMS Pro which i unistalled and updated the SMSC number a couple of times and once this stabilized, i reinstalled GOSMS Pro.

Hope this helps.

Cool! Thank you so much for pointing me in the right direction I found directions on how to make the change and what the SMSC is at http://www.developershome.com/sms/sms_tutorial.asp?page=smsc I then found a list of SMSC numbers here http://borgus.net/smsc.txt
[Motorola Droid X2] Macguyver:
I live in a very good area and always have great signal. Never had speed issues with my Fascinate but now with the X2 lately the last couple weeks my 3G signal is all over the place. I'm on my 2nd X2 because the first one felt like it was on fire when using data. Well this one did it too. The 3G radio gets really hot when using data. Except for the last few days it doesn't do it anymore, doesn't get hot at all which is good except my data speeds are terrible the majority of the time. Now its not always bad, but 90% of the time or better its less than 0.5 mbps with 3-4 bars. When its working correctly I get 1.2-1.8 mbps in the same places like at home where I'm getting 0.5 mbps or less most of the time. Wondering if the 3G radio could have burnt itself out or is it a software issue?
[Motorola Droid X2] garywojdan81:
It may be a VERIZON issue. Can you compare it to someone else's in the same areas?
[Motorola Droid X2] Macguyver:
Yeah, my wife's fascinate is fine.
[Motorola Droid X2] X0dus:
Mine seems like it could cook an egg with w/ how hot it gets with heavy radio use. I had spotty speeds at one time for about 2 wks and upon calling VZW they told me it could be the 4g updates rolling out of my nearest city. They were dropping local towers to upgrade them causing my radio to lock on a tower further away. Things have been normal as of late with my speeds so maybe they were correct, for once.
[Motorola Droid X2] garywojdan81:
Mine was just the opposite. Spotty 3g speeds with my fascinate + the missed call thing=a move to the x2 where my data has been rock solid for the most part, especially with naven's tweaks. Do you have any apps that hijack the radio? I had root call blocker installed & its a great app for blocking unwanted calls but it has to hijack the radio at boot up to insert its script and sometimes it would take 5+ min for 3g to come on. I ultimately lost all data one day only to find that somehow my radio had been set to 1xrtt instead of 3g evdo. The only thing to fix it was a factory data reset. I've never put that app back on my phone & have never had that issue again.
[Motorola Droid X2] Macguyver:
I never had a speed issue with the fascinate, my issues were missed calls and battery life. I don't believe I have anything hijacking the radio.
[Motorola Droid X2] Macguyver:
Well it appears to be a verizon issue as I was in a different part of town this afternoon and was consistently getting 1.3 mbps+ as I ran a speedtest several times to make sure.

Soooo that means that the tower near my house is crap for some reason right now, which is also the one I am on at work apparently because its only a couple miles from home.

Thanks for the help guys.

ImNuts posted all the TW4 widgets in his Infinity ROM post. Heres the link http://www.imnuts.org/downloads/charge/ep4/addons/tw4_widgets.zip The clock and weather widget are both there, tho the weather widget will not work the same on our TW because we don't have re-sizable widgets which the weather widget is. You can't make it 4x1, only 4x2 and IMO that just takes up too much space for a weather widget.

[HTC Sensation] govtcheez:
Is there a way to revert back to pre-OTA/2.3.3? It seems like there are many more issues that fixes with this OTA. I hardly had any problems at all, and now my camera won't focus (can't use any barcode/qr readers), I'm getting the annoying screen capture/home button problem, etc, etc...

Quite annoying and I would have hoped that they would have come up with a fix by now.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
RUU is the only way, which means losing all data (unless you root/back up first) - and you'd need to set your phone to Super CID to go backwards (I think) from a newer version to and older one
[HTC Sensation] nxt:
As long as you're using the correct RUU for the phone, you don't need to change CID. I did it on my T-Mobile Sensation, from OTA 2.3.4 back to stock 2.3.3 through the RUU.
[HTC Sensation] moshe22:
Sent you a pm :)
[HTC Sensation] claudenegm:
He'll be okay flashing an RUU without SuperCID, it's only needed if flashing an RUU not authorized by the device.

Basically, if the update changed Hboot, he'll need to run revolutionary, then run RUU again as RUU doesn't accept downgrading hboot, which gives weird error codes.

The only way I figured out, was using Revolutionary as it updates the Hboot to an older one.

But as I understand OTA doesn't update Hboot. Right?

was hoping for a bit of help... the bottom left of my screen has come away from the phone slightly. I can push it back and it stick for about half a second then back to normal. not sticking out a lot but enough for dust and bits to get under the screen. I therefore want to open up the phone and see if i can fix it and clean away the gathered dust underneath.

has anyone done this before? if so i'd really appreciate some advice on how i go about it.i have insurance if it all goes t*ts up!

Help! Friends phone: Flashed Mikg 2.5 on friday all was working, no additional mods on top of the rom. Today, the phone worked fine until went to charge it. Charge only selected, it went to blank screen.

Done so far:

1. couple of battery pulls still nothing,

2. cleared cache and reboot still nothing.

3. Tried to nandroid to previous rom, nandroid failed said check recovery log. which I can not. At work and unable to access disk drive from work computer...

4. Tried to reflash the only rom on the sd card.... now i am stuck on the white splash screen.

----- FIXED----

But... I noticed that whenever I reboot from recoery, I get ?white/red noise? accross the screen---- any ideas why?

thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
When you reflash the rom, do you perform a clean wipe?

Also the backup failed because:

1. There wasn't enough space when it was done [corrupted]

2. The name of the backup folder was changed using invalid characters [such as a space]

3. Restoring from a different phone

And the sometimes screen tearing you speak of is normal, it happens to all of us. Every once in a while it won't happen, but its okay; your phone isn't being damaged in any way when it does happen.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playya:
Only recovery I have used that does not have the screen tearing is Amon 2.2.1 but if you flash that recovery you will not be able to use any recoveries made with a new version of Amon or Clockwork. But like stated above the screen tearing is harmless.

Hi,

i really like the idea of Snap'N'Go but it is very slow when copying a file. And it does not recognize folders.

It would be really awesome if someone would develop a app like Snap'N'Go which includes the following features....

1. copying of all filetypes by making a picture of it...

2. copying of folders and subfolders by making a picture of it...

3. it should be faster than Snap'N'Go but point 2 is more important...

4. it would be awesome to take a picture of one file and the other and he put them in a download list and complete 'em...

If you like this idea but can not work on this please reply so that the devs see that many people would like it and buy...
